Prologue: Izumo's Calamity

Next Chapter

"This is it."

"I didn't expect it to come back again."

"This force is immortal, you should know, maybe what we did at the time was not the best choice."

"Hehe, so what, the frost and snow have been decadent for a thousand years, and there will never be a place to turn over after today."

"Without the Lord's hand, is it enough to use our strength?"

"Rest assured, it is still far from being matured, the high priest's deduction has always been exhaustive, and if the Lord acts, you should know how much risk you have to bear."

Above the boundless clouds, two pitch-black shadows flew rapidly from afar. They stepped on the clouds surrounded by spiritual energy, and finally stopped in a corner.

Through the clouds, mountains are lined up below, and although they stand high above the clouds, there is still no end in sight to the majestic mountains. The view directly below is a slightly bustling small city. As soon as the morning came, the mobile crowd was already moving around the town.

Izumo Castle!

"Are you sure you're here? Can you feel the breath of it? The left-handed man in black asked

"It's impossible for you and me to detect its existence without even noticing, but—" The man in black on his right hand took out a bead that radiated black glow from his robe. This bead is pitch black and deep, and the moment it appears in the air, the huge suction force attracts and swallows all the aura air above the space. And the pitch-black bead also quickly caused changes, and a wisp of ice blue light emanated from the bead, dazzling.

Exploring the Divine Beads!

"With its detection, it finally has nowhere to hide." Seeing the pale blue halo emitted from the beads, the two seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief.

Around the two black-clothed people, endless black energy flowed out at this moment, and as soon as the black energy surged out, the aura and vitality of the surrounding space had all dissipated and turned into nothingness.

All kinds of complex imprints were surging in mid-air at this moment, forming formations everywhere. They float freely over Izumo Castle, eventually sealing off all corners around the city...

A calm and warm courtyard in Izumo Castle:

The young man was standing in the courtyard and was dancing with a sword, he was dressed in white, and his face was calm and confident. A three-foot-five-inch sword kept flying and flowing in his hand. His sword moves were fast and intense, with a chill to the bone. The small courtyard, which was originally calm, was also attached to a layer of cold aura under his wielding.

The woman sat in a corner of the courtyard and quietly watched the young man dancing with a sword, her soft face was not only beautiful, but also seemed to be full of endless wisdom. There are always few smiles on his cold face, but when he sees a teenager, he is an exception. It's like now, she's smiling, smiling beautifully.

The young man's sword dance had come to an end, and he put away his sword and stood. The movements of the whole body are coordinated and beautiful.

"Done?" She asked

The boy nodded.

"Is this the swordsmanship you learned from Tenryu? It's beautiful. The warm voice slowly came out of the woman's mouth, like soft nectar sprinkled from the sky, and the slightest trace was transmitted to this calm and warm courtyard.

The boy stood there with his sword in hand, but he didn't seem to be very satisfied with this assessment, and he said, "Mother, is it just beautiful?" It's clear and powerful, right? In the Abyss Battlefield before, I used this sword to force back five mediocre but high-spirited wastes from the Lifeless Empire. ”

"Is there no living empire? They also participated in this abyss battlefield? There was a hint of melancholy in the woman's good-looking eyes.

"When they came to the Abyss Battlefield, they regarded themselves as the Kingdom of God everywhere, and they looked down on the cultivators in the world, and the children couldn't see it, and they cleaned up a lot."

"It's okay," the woman said slowly, but the worried tone in which she spoke made the boy very puzzled.

"Mother, is there any problem?" The boy asked, puzzled

The woman's thoughts drifted slowly, and finally she looked up again and asked the boy a question. "Yun'er, what I have repeatedly instructed you, you are not allowed to use the Ice Spirit Sword Technique in front of outsiders, have you ever used it?"

"Ice Spirit Sword Technique? ... Of course," the young man was just about to agree, when he suddenly sketched a picture of the abyssal battlefield in his mind.

The black-clad boy stood in the depths of the endless abyss and slowly looked at himself. Strange eyes with endless black flames. The energy he swung out casually carried great power, and even now that I think about it, I still remember it vividly. Bright red blood reflected under the lips of the girl beside her. Can you back down? Can you give up? If you lose, how unwilling your heart will be, and there is one last trick, use it if you have nothing to do, as long as you can defeat a strong enemy, as long as you can save her from leaving.

"I—" The boy bowed his head. At this moment, he suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter. "I'm sorry, mother...", like many teenagers who have made mistakes, he bowed his head and waited for his mother to deal with it.

The woman's face showed a look of anxiety, but she was not angry with the boy. "Well, I hope it's okay... Wusheng would actually meddle in the affairs of the abyss, everything is really unpredictable. ”

In the vast expanse of the Tianyun Mountains, on top of one of the highest peaks, the plane trees that rise to the sky stand tall, their turquoise leaves full of life and vitality. And at the top of the sycamore, a huge creature was entrenched there, and the huge body dozens of meters high should have been tall and mighty, but at this time, it was entrenched on the top of the sycamore, and its whole body shook violently. The tail in the air is like a dragon and a snake, and it is constantly swinging from side to side.

"The power of nothingness... Did they finally find this place? A thousand years have passed, but is fate still so cruel? Its massive head lifted slightly to look at the sky above, and since it was outside of Izumo Castle, it spotted the clue faster than anyone else.

"Protect yourself, I haven't turned into a real dragon yet, I still want to try to live, and my appearance can't change any situation. You... I must do it...", it thought silently to itself.

In the early morning, the sky that was supposed to be blue in Izumo Castle suddenly turned pitch black. The aura in the air, which was already full of life, began to become restless. The people who were doing their jobs looked at the sky in horror, as if they had seen the end of the world.

"What happened? Why did the sky suddenly darken like this? ”

"Is it God's punishment? Why? What fault did I make in Izumo? ”

"Who's pretending to be a ghost? Our Ling family's Lingyun Gongzi has become a student of the Heavenly Academy of Heavenly Dragon Academy, and if you offend Izumo City, you will be against the entire Canglong Empire! ”

Under the huge changes, the life around Izumo Castle is full of all kinds of things, there is abuse, panic and incomprehension.

The black energy finally fell rapidly from mid-air, and the power they gave was so deep and terrifying. Several monks on the outskirts of Izumo Castle were shattered into nothingness in an instant. The dissipation of the most direct life has made many people panic.

"God, atonement for our sins, please give us a way to live." The timid and spineless man was already kneeling on the ground in front of him and began to cry out for mercy.

Mid-air: "What an unbearable city, why does it live in seclusion?" ”

"It is no longer what it used to be, it has become a humble and weak human being, there is no life except us, and there are always too few intelligent and rational human beings."

"Where is it, did you find it?" The left-handed man in black asked

The black-clothed man in his right hand took out the bead that should have been as black as ink, and its blue light shone on the calm and warm courtyard, as bright as a star.

In the small courtyard of the Ling family, the woman looked up at the sky, and the dark sky was only a void at this time. She thought slightly, and in a trance recalled the memories from the ancients.

Inside, the man in black hurried into the courtyard with a girl in a blue dress.

The man's appearance is very ordinary, and his ordinariness is even more vividly set off by the beautiful woman, and when the black aura approaches, he also shows uneasiness like everyone else in Izumo Castle. The appearance of the girl at the age of twelve or thirteen, although she has not yet fully grown up, has already shown the beauty of Zhongxiu, her big eyes are bright and look at the near nothingness, a little scared, but also a little curious, she saw Ling Yun next to her at a glance, and a happy smile immediately appeared on her curious face.

"Brother, what's wrong with our Izumo City?" She ran over, her light and soft body pressed against the boy's arm, natural and casual, apparently the brother and sister often get along like this.

When the boy saw his sister, a smile appeared on his serious face. "It's okay, although it seems to be a little troublesome, but it will pass soon." He touched his sister's head and gently comforted her.

The two black-clothed men were already floating above this quiet courtyard, overlooking this small courtyard that was full of warmth. The woman also rose into the air at this moment, stopping in mid-air opposite the two of them.

"It's hard to imagine that you've been reborn like this. Oh no, it's not reborn, you're just a stupid and ignorant human who has inherited its powers. The man in black on the left said in mid-air. The voices of the two men in black carried an extremely high level of power, and the surrounding crowd could only faintly see his open mouth, but they could not hear a trace of his voice, except for the woman opposite the two.

"It's you who came from the heavens and the earth." The woman said coldly across from them. In the same way, no one below could hear her words.

This is the suppression of the law, and the mortal world should not be snooped into, close to the secrets of the world of gods. If you snoop, you will be punished by heaven.

"I didn't expect the little phoenix to know us, is this the inheritance memory you got from the Endless Valley?"

"What about Xiao Wuchen? Didn't he come? I'm afraid you two are not my opponents yet. The woman's cold voice came from another sky, with a commanding majesty.

Wutian stood in the air, and when he heard the woman's words, he laughed out loud. "Hahaha, little phoenix, your appearance of being strong outside and doing things in the middle really makes the old man feel distressed. If we don't know your details, how can we come so boldly? However, I have always had the virtue of being a good life, and if my wife is willing to go with us to Wusheng, your relatives in this city can save their lives. ”

"What happened to the last person who was so stupid that he was a guest that he didn't have a life, I still remember it vividly." The woman's eyes shone with a chill to the bone. "What despicable means you used to betray Frost and Snow a thousand years ago are still fresh in my inherited memories. No amount of hatred can be resolved, but it is impossible to bow to Wusheng. ”

The eerie voice of the landless also sounded in mid-air. "What's the use of the big brother saying so much? Women's mouths are always a little harder than others, and when despair comes, their initial insistence will eventually disappear. ”

The pale blue brilliance condensed in the air, exuding a noble and powerful power. The temperature in the air has dropped to the lowest, and if a person without aura dares to break into the small courtyard at this moment, he will be frozen into a humanoid ice sculpture in an instant, but this bone-chilling cold has avoided the three people in the small courtyard, and they are not affected in the slightest in front of the ice blue power.

On the opposite side of the pale blue halo, black energy surged endlessly, vast and mysterious, with the power to destroy everything. The black energy was huge, and the light blue power was condensed, and they finally collided in midair.

The black energy showed a bit of a decline under the collision between the two, but the two of them didn't seem to care. The energy in his body surged, and more dark energy rolled in, colliding with the blue light.

Peng!

The force of the collision carried a monstrous momentum, and the vitality of the entire air was extinguished in this collision. And the women in the courtyard once again dispersed their strength, and a ray of light saved them from harm.

"After all, is it so important to the family affection of mortals? Sure enough, she's a stupid human, and sure enough, she's not just here to escape our eyes and ears. Wudi said in mid-air to Wutian.

"You have no land, you should know how to do it." The sound of the heavenless came from the other side.

The collision of energies did not distinguish the winner or loser, the black energy dissipated extremely quickly, but the blue energy was not unscathed. The two energies collided and maintained a strange balance.

The pitch-black cane appeared in Wutian's hand, and the pitch-black cane still carried a few wisps of purple electric power that seemed to be nothing. He waved his cane, and the remnants of the purple lightning on it alone casually wiped out a courtyard hundreds of meters away from him.

The ice-blue fairy sword waved in the woman's hand, and the corners of her good-looking eyebrows furrowed slightly. Just a slight collision is almost enough to destroy everything in the small courtyard, if she and the other side go all out, not to mention that the small courtyard below that is extremely important to her, even the entire Izumo City will also be destroyed.

"There is no sky, no earth, can you dare to fight with me to the nine heavens? The life in this small city is tainted with too much cause and effect, and it is not good for your cultivation to destroy them all. ”

"Madame invited, but it was disrespectful." Wutian has promised to come down cleanly.

The woman's face was a little surprised, Wutian agreed to her opinion so happily, but it was not Wusheng's consistent style. When she was puzzled, Wutian had already shook his body and flew above the nine heavens. When the woman saw him move, she also stepped into the air and flew towards the nine heavens.

And after the woman stepped into the air, the landless also moved, but he did not fly into the sky, but rushed to the small courtyard below that was already dilapidated under the impact of energy, and he waved his hands and slapped it on the ordinary man in black.

The young man held the sword in front of him, this catastrophe may have been brought about by his own willful behavior, and he carried an unshirkable responsibility. He wanted to do his part, otherwise the deep self-blame in his heart would torment him extremely painfully. But when he came galloping to the ground, he was sad to find that he could not do anything.

His rapid form made him invisible to the boy's naked eye, and he was now standing on top of the shattered courtyard, palm against the man's back.

"Father!" The young man shouted sadly, he raised his sword high towards the groundless, no matter who you are, I Lingyun will fight with you to the last breath. He drew his sword, and the invincible Ice Spirit Sword Technique was once again unleashed from his hands. He swung his sword, and the huge ice phantom swung towards the landless with all his might. But Wudi didn't even look at him, and a small wisp of dark energy floated in front of him.

Peng! Ling Yun was easily smashed to the ground, a mouthful of blood spurting out of his mouth, and his handsome face was already pale. But he didn't give up, the intense pain didn't stop him, and he got up again and rushed towards the groundless. But the ending didn't change in the slightest, and a wisp of dark energy under the control of the land knocked him to the ground again, and the gesture of ignoring it was like blowing down a small straw. In the face of absolute power, any effort was nothing but nothingness, and he no longer had the strength to stand up, not a trace of it.

And the woman also found a problem at this moment, she turned her figure that was about to fly above the nine heavens, and galloped towards the man.

"Brother Ying!" She shouted from her mouth. In an instant, I panicked.

Behind her, the sky came as scheduled. The pitch-black cane swung down, and all the power that Wutian could mobilize had gathered on it.

Syllable!

The pitch-black cane slapped the back of the woman's blue clothes, and bright red blood flowed from the corners of her mouth, and the woman fell into the small courtyard under this collision.

The spiritual power around her body became messy, and the power of the void on the crutches was eroding her body at the moment, and the pale blue halo around her body had become extremely weak.

"No land, what did you do?" She asked coldly.

Wudi patted the man in his hand and laughed wantonly, "Hahaha, do you really care about his life or death?" Rest assured, there are people who are worth more alive than dead. ”

"What do you mean?" With such an injury under her mental disorder, today's defeat is irreparable.

"I have long said that I have the virtue of having a good life, as long as my wife is willing to be a guest with us in Wusheng, we can spare the lives of these ants." Wutian said in a low voice behind the woman's back.

"Blindly trying to take me away, what do you want to do? I will never let Xiao Wuchen's conspiracy get his wish, I will blow myself up and die, you can't stop me. ”

"The Ice Crystal Divine Phoenix is a god-sent god, and it is its incomparably powerful innate ability to live endlessly, and there will only be one such powerful creature in the whole continent forever, we just want to keep you in captivity, so that there will be no such creatures on the continent in the future." Wutian said slowly.

Two tears flowed from the woman's eyes, as clear as the morning dew, and the tears were full of indescribable pain.

"Still failed? I'm really useless, I'm sorry senior, I've disappointed you. I still can't... Still not done. But her eyes slowly revealed a hint of hope in despair, "But I still have a chance, there are some things they don't know, and they will never know!" Someday I'll make you pay for it with blood. ”

"I promise." The woman said three words very easily.

"Oh?" There was a hint of surprise on Wutian's face, but he was also relieved. It was the best choice for her, and everything went exceptionally well today.

"But you have to make a heavenly oath that when you imprison me, you will keep my family and the tens of thousands of people in Izumo City safe, and you will not send people to Izumo City to hunt down my family in the future."

"Of course." Wutian said.

The sky revealed a hint of blue under the attraction of Wutian, and Wutian raised his head to the sky, gradually connecting with something in the sky. He spoke, "If Madame is voluntarily taken away by my lifeless, my lawless will no longer hurt the lives of anyone in Izumo City. In the future, he will not send someone to hunt down her family in Izumo City. He finished his vow and looked at the woman. Madame is so good? ”

The woman turned her head to look at the groundless. "And you."

Wudi turned his head to look at Wutian, and Wutian nodded lightly. He said again to the heavens according to the words of the lawless.

Ling Yun lay on top of the broken ruins, he couldn't hear a word of the conversation between the woman and the heavens and the earth before, but the moment the woman was shot to the ground, the end was already doomed. And at this moment, the solemn Heavenly Dao oath sounded in his ears, different from before, these voices did not shield mortals, and two lines of hot tears quietly slipped from the corners of his eyes. "Mother don't! It's all my fault, it's all my fault. There must be something else that can be done to stop it, definitely! Certain! He struggled to sit up, but he couldn't muster the slightest strength.

Wutian walked in front of the woman. "Ma'am, please?"

The woman slowly closed her eyes at this moment, and she had accepted her fate.

The pitch-black chains flashed in front of Wutian, binding the woman's hands and feet, and the last trace of black qi invaded the woman's heart, preventing her from blowing herself up.

Wutian's face finally showed the brightest smile at this time. He slowly walked towards Ling Yun, although he didn't have a mask on his face, but in Ling Yun's eyes, his face was still empty, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see clearly. "You're the child that Madame has been trying to nurture all these years, right?" He squatted down in front of Ling Yun and gently touched Ling Yun's face.

Ling Yun glared angrily at Wutian, feeling extremely disgusted and humiliated when his hand touched his face. He twisted his head with all his might, avoiding the lawless touch.

"It's very angry, although your strength is not very good, but the remnant is the remnant, if you always want to go against me in the future, it will always be a disaster."

"What are you going to do? The oath of heaven has just been established, are you crazy? The woman was bound by black chains and had lost the ability to resist, and said in despair as she looked at Wutian.

Go! A black rune emerged from his hand and smashed directly on Ling Yun's body, and the black rune brutally merged into Ling Yun's body. His abundant spiritual power was devoured by the black rune at an extremely fast speed, and his cultivation realm and his soul slowly dissipated and fell under the effect of the black rune, perhaps eventually turning into nothingness. "Heavenly Oath? What about the thunderbolt? What about karmic fire? Oh, so I didn't break my oath. Hahaha," Wutian said with a laugh. "If I have not hurt their lives, how can I break my oath?" Wutian's words came again.

"Shameless!" Tears of despair slipped from the corners of the woman's eyes, heartbroken.

Syllable! The groundless kicked the woman over the shattered earth. The body that had been imprisoned became fragile, and the knees and palms were cut by the broken stones, and blood flowed. "Slut, I'm a prisoner, I'd better keep my mouth clean."

The woman dragged her torn body to her feet slowly, without shouting insults. Her eyes, which had been clear, turned red, and tears rolled down her cheeks like a river.

Wutian didn't continue to stay in front of Ling Yun, he walked two slow steps to the thirteen-year-old girl's body, her eyes were already full of tears, staring at Wutian coldly, there was only a trace of weak spiritual power in her small body.

"Beautiful girls really shouldn't fight and kill, it's really a wise decision not to let you cultivate any spiritual power, you see that in this way you will escape the catastrophe and not have to suffer like your brother." Wutian said.

"You'd better kill me, or one day I'll learn spiritual magic to take revenge on you." The girl said firmly.

"Hahaha" Wutian was not angry. "Then I'll wait for you." He said.

Wutian turned around and walked towards Wudi and the woman, "Things are almost done, it's time to leave." ”

"Let me say goodbye to my family, okay?" The woman propped up her body and pleaded, looking weak and desperate.

Wutian nodded.

The woman's body, bound in black chains, slowly moved to the nearest man in black. Wutian waved his hand and unleashed two auras, hitting the man in black and Ling Yun, recovering a trace of their strength.

The man in black woke up from a coma, and the moment he opened his eyes, he saw the woman's tired, tearful face. He was lying there and didn't know what kind of emotions he was feeling in his heart at the moment, sad? Pain? Distressed? Sad? Helpless? His body was in terrible pain, but he still reached out and stroked the cheek that should be sacred and beautiful for the woman.

"Caiyi, are you okay?" He asked.

"Brother Ying." The woman lifted the man up and leaned against her, her cheeks already welling up with tears. "I'm the one who has caused you."

"How so? It's me who is incompetent, and I can't fight with you in the face of them, but instead become a drag on you. I hate it... But I've always been such a useless man in front of you. ”

"No, it's all my fault, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, don't feel sorry for me after I'm gone, I want to live well to hear? Maybe we'll see each other again in a long time. ”

"Are you leaving? Yes, one day you will leave, but I didn't expect to leave in such a scene. In fact, as long as I can be with you, even if it is only one day, I am enough, not to mention that we have been together for 16 years, and there are no regrets. His voice was faint with a hint of sadness, and there was actually a hint of yearning, as if he was reminiscing about the past days.

The girl ran from afar and clung to the woman's waist from behind.

"Mom, Yuewei can't live without you."

Ling Yun also stood up, stopped at a distance of half a meter from the woman, and did not step forward further, not knowing if it was because the woman's side was too crowded or for some reason.

"Yuewei, my little princess, you have to be happy every day even when I'm not there, remember?"

"Mother...", the girl couldn't cry, buried in the woman's body, and tears flowed down her face.

"Yun'er, come here." The woman's voice sounded softly.

Hearing the woman's voice, Ling Yun dragged his extremely weak body and sat down beside the woman.

"You are my favorite child, you have to live well at all times, remember?"

"Mother, I'm sorry, it's me who has caused you trouble, if I don't reveal my identity with the Ice Spirit Sword Technique, they won't find here." Ling Yun said in a weak and self-reproachful tone, his body was weak when his aura was exhausted, and his smart eyes were full of hollowness at the moment.

"No, it's not your fault, fate has long been predestined in the dark, everything today will happen one day, you don't need to blame yourself."

"Mother, you wait for me, one day I will save you away, definitely." There was still a trace of pride on his body when his aura was exhausted, and he said firmly.

"I will always wait for that day, but whatever choice you make, I will support you. There's nothing wrong with living an ordinary life. ”

"The body that has lost its aura still wants to save people from my lifelessness? It's ridiculous. "The voice of the sky came from afar." Almost, it's time for Madame to hit the road. ”

With a wave of his palm, the woman's figure was pulled back to his side, and he grabbed the chain that trapped the woman, and took off into the air and took off above the nine heavens.

Wudi didn't leave immediately, he looked at Ling Yun, "You still want to go against me Wusheng?" If you provoke beyond your strength, this Heavenly Dao oath will also be terminated on your own initiative. When the time comes, there will be no end of lifeless monks who like to slaughter untouchables. Your family, and the entire Izumo Castle, are going to die. Hahahaha...", his laugh rang out, and faded into the endless dark sky.
