Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Ice Phoenix Clan
"Little Brother Xingtian, you should first be very curious about who our Jiang family is! Why do you have the strength above the Tianyang Sect, but you are willing to nest in a remote corner and be a small family?"
nodded, although Yun Tian didn't know the overall strength of the Jiang family, but just the hand of this old man just now was enough to deter the entire Tianyang Sect!
"Hehehe...... Have you heard of the Eight Ancient Spirit Beasts?"
"You mean the eight tenth-level spirit beasts in the ancient period? But they should have been extinct long ago now, do you have anything to do with these eight spirit beasts?" Looking at the old man's mysterious eyes, Yun Tian frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said lightly.
Nodding, the old man glanced at Yun Tian appreciatively, and muttered, "Little brother, you are very smart! In the blood of our Jiang family, the blood of one of the spirit beasts is flowing, and that is the Ancient Ice Phoenix!"
"How is this possible?" his pupils shrank slightly, and Yun Tian looked at all the people present in disbelief: "Could it be that you are the descendants of spirit beasts? But there is no such record on the mainland! When the eight spirit beasts perished, there seemed to be no descendants handed down! Or are you a hybrid species of humans and beasts?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yushan couldn't help but be anxious, glared at Yuntian angrily, and scolded: "You are the mongrel!"
As if realizing that what he said was a bit excessive, Yun Tian hugged his fists apologetically and explained: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to insult you! It's just that what the seniors said is too unbelievable, and the juniors really can't understand the strangeness!"
waved his hand, but the old man shook his head and smiled, not minding at all: "Hehehe...... No wonder the little brother misunderstood, if he didn't know the truth, it is estimated that the old man would also think that our clan is a spirit beast or a monster of a hybrid between man and beast!"
Glancing at Yuntian again, the old man couldn't help but let out a long breath of turbidity, and his eyes gradually became deeper, as if he had fallen into an ancient memory: "Actually, everything has to start with a great battle in ancient times! Little brother, do you know! The real ruler of this Haotian Continent is not a sect, let alone a country, but a mysterious palace. The ancient people called it, the Divine Palace Emperor Palace!"
Nodding, Yun Tian was not surprised at all! Because he already knew that in the Divine Civilization, every continent was ruled by a divine envoy! The rest of the human beings were like ants under his gaze. Only a few can become his subordinates, or even his successors!
But when the old man saw Yuntian looking so plain, he was very surprised in his heart! After all, what he was talking about now was all ancient secrets, even if many elders of the great sects had never heard of it. Especially the Divine Palace Emperor Palace, even he himself had a hard time believing that it was a real existence. But after Yun Tian heard this, he behaved so indifferently, which had to make his heart full of surprise!
After glancing at Yun Tian deeply, the old man did not stop, and continued: "At the beginning, the master of the Divine Palace wanted to leave the palace for some reason, so he had to choose his heir! At that time, he had two disciples, both of whom were strong Yuan Emperors. One of them even domesticated the eight ancient spirit beasts and became the inheritor of the Divine Palace!"
"However, he lost in the competition, and the eight great spirit beasts under his command were inevitably slaughtered! In order to pass on his power, before the eight great spirit beasts were slaughtered by the new Divine Palace master, he found eight extremely talented human beings and passed on their bloodline and power to them, this is the Ancient Eight Clans!"
"However, in order to avoid the attention of the people of the Shrine. Although the Ancient Eight Clans possessed a powerful power far beyond the world, they must also endure humiliation and live secretly! Otherwise, they will be destroyed!"
Nodding, Yun Tian knew why they let a Yuan King master act as the head of the family, but his true strength was kept in the shadows! It is estimated that the strength that this old man has just made is only the tip of the iceberg!
This Jiang family is really a terrifying existence!
"That's right, senior, since the Jiang family is so powerful, just a treasure, do you still need to search for it by the phantom rat below?" At this time, Yun Tian looked at the old man again and wondered.
With a faint smile, the old man shook his head helplessly: "It's not a secret, this treasure is related to the ancient ice phoenix, we found it three hundred years ago! It's just that the periphery of that treasure has been laid with a maze, and many of our masters have entered it, but none of them have come out alive! Later, we inspected it with secret techniques, and found that the cold air there was oppressive, and we couldn't absorb the yuan force at all. Everyone was trapped and died, and there was no sign of being killed by the rune array! So the old man thought that as long as he passed this maze, he would be able to get the treasure!"
His brows furrowed deeply, and Yun Tian couldn't help but bow his head and groan.
If it's just a maze, relying on the phantom mouse's innate sensitivity to the elemental weapon, it will naturally be extremely easy! It's just that the danger there is not ordinarily high! Although this old man said that there is only a maze, who knows what the hell there is inside! There are so many masters in his Jiang family, and they are all dead. As a sixth-level Yuan Master and a third-grade forging master, how much vitality can you have when you go there?
After pacing back and forth for a few steps, the expression on Yun Tian's face became more and more solemn! He always felt that this trip must be a life of death! However, if he refused, how could the Jiang family let him go?
As the saying goes, the front door is a wolf, and the back door is a tiger, he has already reached the point of being in a dilemma!
"Senior Brother Xingtian, if you help us retrieve the treasure this time, my Jiang family will not treat you badly!" It seemed that seeing Yuntian's hesitation, Jiang Xue made his own promise for the sake of the smooth progress of the matter!
Slanting his eyes at Jiang Xue, Yun Tian thought for a while again, and suddenly said, "Okay, who made us brothers and sisters of the same sect!"
Anyway, whether you go or not is a life of nine deaths, so it is better to give it a go!
"Okay, you say!" the old man nodded very simply.
"First of all, this time I went on a treasure hunt, only me and my senior sister went together, there can be no third party, I don't want to be disturbed!" The corners of his mouth curled, and Yun Tian glanced at Jiang Xue evilly!
couldn't help glaring at him fiercely, Jiang Xue's cheeks flushed with a hint of redness, and she didn't know where to go!
But the old man's face quickly became gloomy, and he muttered: "Little brother, you are really cautious! Are you afraid that my Jiang family will cross the river and tear down the bridge, and you will have a hostage!"
Although Jiang Xue is smart, he is young after all, and he is not as far-sighted as the old fox of his grandfather!
After all, the Jiang family is as master as a cloud, and if someone else accompanies them, they will inevitably kill him after discovering the treasure! But Jiang Xue's words are still young, and if he wants Yuntian's life, he can't be captured! Moreover, with Jiang Xue, the pearl in the palm of the head of the family, by his side, the Jiang family will definitely be fully prepared for the two of them and will not let them sacrifice in vain! At least, if this old man has anything to hide, for the safety of his granddaughter, he will also give it all out!
After bowing his head and muttering for a while, the old man nodded lightly: "Yes, little brother, don't worry, the old man will not harm you!"
"Hehehe...... That's when there is beauty to go with!" Smiling slightly, Yun Tian put forward his second condition: "Then, I need a promise, and the Jiang family fully supports my promise!"
"Support, support you, what?" the old man was a little puzzled.
"I don't know yet, but if I have anything to ask for in the future, I hope the Jiang family can raise the strength of the clan and help each other!"
"Hmph, the little brother is really far-sighted, and he has already planned for the future now! However, my Jiang family is not invincible in the world. If it puts the family in danger, I won't do it even if I break the contract!" Shaking his head, the old man said very seriously.
"Hehehe...... Don't worry, if the Jiang family can't do anything, I won't ask for it!" Although the old man didn't agree to him immediately, Yun Tian nodded secretly in his heart. At the very least, this old man is really seriously considering his conditions! If this old man agrees to any conditions, Yun Tian will not trust him!
"Well, I can only say do what you can!" closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and the old man finally nodded, "Then, your third condition is ......"
"Find me something!"
"What's that?"
"Six-Yuan Divine Dice!" Yun Tian said word by word......
