This is an island in the lake with an area of nearly 100 miles, and the aura on the island is abundant, and the clear and transparent lake water glows with a faint fluorescence, constantly lapping on the shore.

On the edge of Spirit Island, there are mountains of white bones on the beach, most of which have rotted, but they can still be seen to be the bones of various shemales.

The bones of these monsters are large and small, as small as the bones of a baby, and as large as the spine of a giant beast of hundreds of feet.

Not only on the beach, but also on the ground of the island, there are rotten bones everywhere, and in such a dim environment, the green ghostfire wafts everywhere in the wilderness outside the city, and the atmosphere is even more eerie.

What's even more appalling is that there is a mountain of white bones piled up in the most central part of the island, and the number of bones there is incalculable, and it is more than 700 zhang high.

And at the top of the White Bone Mountain, a white bone altar was opened up, and in the center of the altar stood a skeleton statue more than ten zhang high, with a seemingly ordinary white human skull inlaid on the center of the statue's eyebrows, and a mouthful of colorful orbs in his mouth.

A ladder of white bones made of countless skeletons led from the foot of the mountain to the altar at the top of the mountain.

At this moment, there were hundreds of figures climbing up the ladder of bones little by little, even if their limbs were bloodied by bone spurs, even if they were crying and begging for mercy with despair, they didn't dare to stop.

Because all those who stopped in place were caught out of the crowd by inhumane sand thieves, and then thrown into the mountain of bones, feeding hundreds of millions of ghost ants.

The Black King City is built around this mountain of bones, and the palaces of buildings with different styles and extravagance are located around this mountain, all of which cover a vast area.

In a large circle outside, there are neat and orderly markets and streets, which are completely different from the legendary chaotic sand thieves.

But Zhao Sheng could see at a glance that all the buildings and every street in Fang City were actually part of a certain high-level array, and the core of the great array was in that mountain of bones.

The outermost large area of the Black King City is very much in line with the traditional impression of the sand thief's lair in the eyes of the world, countless stone houses and wooden buildings are built very randomly, and large shacks are scattered in the corners, which looks very chaotic and disorderly.

In the outer cities, violent killings** are unconcealed in broad daylight and can be seen everywhere.

The tradition of respecting the strong in the immortal cultivation world is vividly embodied in the Black King City.

……

Zhao Sheng was suspended above the Spirit Island, and secretly released the Yuan Shen Divine Mind to sweep across the island, and in the blink of an eye, he took in all the scenes of the Black King City.

"Wonderful, it's better to come early than to come sooner! The old man happened to see the subtleties of the inner demon empowerment Dafa. The corners of Zhao Sheng's mouth rose, his gaze fell on the White Bone Mountain in the center of the city, and he muttered to himself.

As soon as the words fell, the whole person quietly turned into a wisp of phantom, and instantly appeared in the corner of the white bone altar on the top of the mountain.

The person who presided over this empowerment was an old man with yellow hair and a shawl and a kind face.

This person's name is Sha Tongtian, his identity is not trivial, he is one of the deputy city lords of Black King City, and he is also an old devil who has been promoted to Yuanying for many years.

Sha Tongtian's expression was extremely indifferent, as if he had long lost his humanity. This person was unaware of Zhao Sheng's arrival.

Soon after, the first person to climb to the top of the mountain finally appeared, and it turned out to be a woman with a weak body.

But no one should be a face! This woman seems to be weak and delicate, but she is the highest cultivator in this group, and her strength has reached the realm of Jindan.

The reason why I honestly climbed the ladder was because this White Bone Mountain was too evil, and the strange forbidden power completely suppressed everyone's cultivation.

As the first person reached the top of the mountain, the second, third, and many more made it to the top, but they were all forced to walk to the center of the altar and stand under the skull statue.

Hundreds of immortal cultivators climbed the White Bone Ladder at the same time, and in the end, only a few dozen of them could stand alive under the statue. The other losers have become food for the ghost ants.

Zhao Sheng restrained his breath and stood incognito on the edge of the altar, observing Sha Tongtian's every move expectantly.

Looking at the people who were all over the body and were injured and lifeless, Sha Tongtian suddenly smiled cruelly, and said in a warm voice: "Wait and listen, the empowerment ceremony will be held later." If you can make it to the end, you will be able to live. Otherwise, only one word dies! ”

When the more than thirty survivors heard this, they were all excited, and their eyes were full of longing for life.

Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Sha Tongtian nodded with satisfaction, then turned to face the skeleton idol, and recited an ancient incantation that no one could understand.

As this incantation spread throughout the White Bone Altar, Zhao Sheng sensed that one after another invisible divine thoughts erupted from Sha Tongtian's body, and in an instant, they disappeared into the colorful orb in the center of the god's eyebrows.

In an instant, the orb erupted in a large area of dazzling brilliance, instantly enveloping the entire White Bone Altar and all the survivors under the idol.

Zhao Sheng didn't dodge or dodge, his body was "immersed" in this dazzling and colorful brilliance.

Suddenly, the wild laughter and roars of countless people inexplicably sounded in his ears, and then an extremely powerful strange spiritual fluctuation appeared out of thin air, and he tried to break into his Purple Mansion Soul Sea with a brutal and domineering attitude.

But they were all forcibly blocked from the center of the eyebrows by the power of the primordial gods, and they were never able to help a god true monarch.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng slightly let go of a gap, and felt that strange divine thoughts entered the gap and invaded the space of the Purple Mansion.

Suddenly, countless memory images exploded in his mind at the same time, as if the memories of thousands of people were forced into his mind at the same time, and the pictures were full of burning, killing and looting, all pure violence!

In an instant, just like all the evil deeds in the world at the same moment, naked in the depths of your memory,

This. It's an immeasurable flood of memories!

In front of it, the mind of a normal person can't hold on to it at all, and it will be easily washed away by the "torrent", and then it will be polluted, assimilated, brainwashed by massive memory fragments, and finally become a member of the collective memory.

In a trance, countless "yous" appeared, you were burning, killing and looting, enjoying the bliss of the world, and you were also dying in extreme madness.

Zhao Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, two divine lights exploded in his eyes, and a single thought destroyed the strange spiritual fluctuations that invaded the divine soul.

At this point, he truly understood why the sand thieves in the endless desert kept killing each other, and why there was always a resurgence!

It turns out that the truth of the inner demon empowerment Dafa is actually a kind of evil art that distorts the will and assimilates the mind.

This kind of evil art seems to be extremely evil, but its intention is extremely profound, and it seems to be derived from some kind of Great Dao law. The mystery of the method is really subtle and unpredictable, and even he has difficulty cracking this method for a while.

Zhao Sheng even glimpsed a trace of a higher-level magic method from the principle of casting this method, and faintly felt that this evil method was probably the handiwork of a certain demon giant in the spirit world, and even the Black King City and even this underground space were also opened up by this person himself.

"The Black Sand Realm has turned into a god and true monarch for generations, and none of them have taken action to destroy the Black King City, it seems that there is an amazing secret hidden in it. No wonder the Black Kings are always standing."

Thinking of this, Zhao Sheng's eyes suddenly froze, and he already retreated in his heart.

At this time, most of the more than 30 survivors had collapsed and become "living corpses" driven by desire alone.

When the last ancient mantra fell, there were only seven people in the center of the altar who were still conscious, including the Jindan nuns.

It's just that they are no better at the moment, everyone's eyes have become cruel and evil, and their bodies are full of violence.

"Kill them!"

With Sha Tongtian's order, the seven "new sand thieves" all showed excited and cruel smiles, and did not hesitate to shoot at the "living corpse" next to them.

Scenes of bloody and violent scenes soon appeared on the White Bone Altar, which immediately made the sand thieves on guard around them laugh and cheer with exuberant expressions, and screamed and roared.

With the thick bloody aura spreading, the dazzling brilliance in mid-air was also unconsciously dyed with a layer of blood light, and at this moment, in the depths of the eyes of the skeleton god, two pure white flames quietly appeared, as if they were looking at something.

Zhao Sheng only felt a chill in his heart, and at the moment when the blood flame condensed, the whole person disappeared from the spot out of thin air, but he didn't know that he had inadvertently escaped a catastrophe.

……

North Gate City, Ping'an Fang.

In the depths of a palatial and luxurious mansion, Zhao Sheng's figure suddenly appeared in the corner of the garden, and then his figure flashed and flew into a hall.

"Master, you're back!" Sha Sheng heard the footsteps outside the door, looked up, and just saw Zhao Shengfei coming in, hurriedly threw down the chicken leg in his hand, and shouted happily.

When Master Han, who was serving on the side, saw the master appear, he immediately saluted with a smile on his face and sang loudly.

Zhao Sheng nodded at him, and said to Sha Sheng: "The matter for the teacher is done." Sha Sheng, go with the old man. ”

Oh!

Sha Sheng reluctantly looked at the table full of delicacies, slowly stood up, and walked around the table to the master's side.

Zhao Sheng swept his sleeves, and after a gust of wind, there was no longer a master and apprentice in the hall, but there was an extra white pill bottle on the dining table.

The moment Master Han saw the Dan Bottle, he instantly pounced on the table like a hungry tiger, grabbed the Dan Bottle, and then hurriedly opened the Dan Seal and poured out a milky white elixir, which was the first-order best elixir solid Yangyuan Dan.

It's not that Zhao Sheng is generous, but this pill is already the most garbage and useless pill in the Sumeru space.

After leaving the mansion, Zhao Sheng quickly purchased a cave mansion full of spiritual energy in the inner city and temporarily settled Sha Sheng here.

A few days later, there were more than a dozen beautiful maids in the cave.

At the same time, Zhao Sheng also officially assumed the responsibility of being a teacher, and since then, Sha Sheng has lived a dark life, and only all kinds of delicacies can soothe his young heart.

In order to live up to Sha Sheng's innate special physique, Zhao Sheng took great pains to create a major exercise "Red Refining Ten Thousand Transformation Bodies" for his apprentices after painstaking meditation.

This method is a fire practice to refine the body, which is mainly aimed at refining the strange poisons in the world, which can not only continuously stimulate the potential of the physical body, but also cultivate a unique fire poison spiritual power, once refined into a rare opponent in the same level.

If you cultivate to the Dacheng realm, you have a certain chance of crossing the rank and fighting.

A few months later, the chaotic spiritual power in Sha Sheng's body was successfully transformed into a purer red refining spiritual power, and his cultivation was also raised to a higher level, reaching the realm of the fourth layer of qi refining.

During this period, Zhao Sheng had infiltrated the Xinglong Mountain Range where the Zhao family was located several times, and had secretly found out the inside and outside of the Zhao family in his own realm, completely mastering all the secrets of the Zhao family and the current situation of the family.

Of course, it also includes the grievances and hatreds between the Zhao family and the Beiming family. So we know where the biggest threat to this branch is coming from.

This time, the reason why he returned to the Black Sand Realm was for about three purposes, one was to see how the Black Sand Zhao Clan was developing; The second is to prepare for the future ascension, and the last purpose is for the cross-border teleportation array.

It's a pity that he has gone through the Zhao Clan's Scripture Pavilion and read all the posthumous handbooks left by the Zhao ancestors, but he has not seen any records of successful teleportation back to the "Star Ruins".

After discovering this extremely regrettable fact, Zhao Sheng also felt a little lost, but he quickly suppressed this regret deeply.

In fact, he just wanted to go back to the Heavenly Pillar Realm to see, and he didn't have to return to his hometown. This little thought in my heart is not an obsession at all!

Out of some consideration, Zhao Sheng did not intend to show his identity, but changed his identity to contact the Zhao family.

……

Years go by in a flash.

On this day, in the depths of the Xinglong Mountain Range, in a deep valley full of verdant mountains, there is a gurgling stream with clear water flowing through, the clouds rise in the spiritual fields on both sides, and there are bursts of gentle and crisp birdsong from time to time in the spiritual fruit forest.

The steepest part of the valley is the most winding of the stream, and the rocks on both sides of the river are densely packed, and at the bends, the water flows slowly, and it gathers into a deep pool of turquoise.

On the edge of the deep pool, there was a platform carved out of a boulder, on which sat a beautiful young man in a green robe, who was bowing his head and fiddling with several spiritual rice plants whose grains were crystal like agate.

His facial features are upright, his face is handsome, and his temperament is detached, which makes him look dusty

Not far from this person, an old man in a black robe was sitting opposite a white-haired old woman. Between the two of them is a three-legged and six-eared apricot yellow danding, you come and go to put a series of pill magic light on it, and it is obvious that there is some kind of competition going on.

Among them, the black-robed old man was dressed very neatly, without the slightest wrinkles, and the black silk on his head was meticulously raised, and the whole person looked neat and neat, it was the only ancestor of the Zhao family, Zhao Yuedu

The white-haired old woman opposite him was much more sloppy, wearing a moon-white robe with scattered embroidered clumps of Dan patterns, her shoulders drooping on both sides, her head in one hand, her hair fluffy and disheveled, sleepy-eyed, and she looked extremely lazy.

This person can actually compete with Zhao Yuedu for Dan Dao skills, and his natural identity is extraordinary.

The true identity of this person is the Great Elder of the Alchemy Peak of the Infinite Palace, the Grand Master of Chen Mingye, who is known as the "Holy Hand Dan Heart", and is already in the middle stage of the Yuan Infant realm.

In addition, she is not only a Dan Dao Grand Grandmaster, but also one of the only five Grandmasters in the Lingnong Clan.

It is worth mentioning that Zhao Yuedu is one of the five great Lingnong Grandmasters.
