168. The Price of the Fall!
, 168. The Price of the Fall!
The strong smell of blood, even in the blazing heat, could not be concealed.
On the high mountains of the Jiuyao Mountain Range, the flames were still burning, but in the direction of the Xiaojie Mountain Range, there were three corpses. None of the three corpses were intact, either with severed hands or feet, and one of them looked more like it had been torn apart by force, but if you look closely, you will find that the severed limbs of the other two corpses were also torn apart by extremely brutal means, rather than killed by sharp weapons or magic.
However, the two people standing next to these corpses stared at the depths of the Jiuyao Mountain Range with solemn faces.
There, thunderclouds were thick, and golden thunder cleaved from the sky from time to time, as if there was no end to it.
A young man who had fallen to the ground had a pale face and multiple wounds, but at least he had not come to such a tragic fate as his companion. The young man glanced up at the other cultivator beside him—this was a middle-aged man, his tower-like figure would definitely impress any cultivator who had seen him, but at this moment, he was staring at the thunderclouds in front of him with a solemn face.
A heavy sword, stuck in the ground beside him.
If Lu Li was here, he would definitely recognize the identity of this person, he was the door protector that Lu Li met when he went to the Demon Sword Sect.
Dai Feng.
The air around it is a little dignified.
After a while, Dai Feng said abruptly: "That's the eighteenth heavenly thunder." ”
The young cultivator who was awakened by Dai Feng's words looked dazed, he didn't notice what was going on with the thunderclouds in front of him at all. With his cultivation now that he had just entered the Cave Heaven Realm, the Thunder Tribulation was still a very distant thing.
However, it was obvious that Dai Feng did not expect his reply, but reopened his mouth and asked, "What's going on?"
"We ...... Met Lee Yi-han. The young man who narrowly escaped smiled bitterly, "But later, it seems that someone sent a signal for help on the side of the thunder tribulation, and Li Yihan immediately rushed over, so I was lucky to escape." ”
When he heard the name Li Yihan, Dai Feng's eyebrows furrowed, and there was a little more fear in his eyes.
He couldn't help but think of that scene three hundred years ago, when he was just a small cultivator in the Immortal Realm, but in the Sword Hall of the Demon Sword Sect, he had seen Li Yihan once, this woman was already a Heavenly Thunder Realm powerhouse who had survived five thunder tribulations at that time. On the sword hall of the Demon Sword Sect, she relied on her own strength to overthrow the seven elders of the Demon Sword Sect who were also just one step away from stepping into the Law Phase Realm, and in the end, it was an elder with the Law Phase Realm who made a move to suppress this arrogant woman.
But in that battle, she was still honored.
After that, I heard that she began to fight in various secret realms, and it is said that she has also made a lot of fame. So far, there is a rumor in the Demon Sword Sect that Zi Yan was thrown by Xie Simin to the Southern Wilderness to hone because Xie Simin was stimulated by Li Yihan, so he had such a crazy move, but later it turned out that Xie Simin's cultivation method was very successful, at least he cultivated a little madman for the Demon Sword Sect, and accompanied her, an old madman, to toss around.
Thinking that there was a woman named Li Yihan in the thunder tribulation at this moment, Dai Feng sighed silently: "Let's go." ”
He hasn't even survived the Thunder Tribulation now, he just stepped into the Heavenly Thunder Realm with half a foot, and with his cultivation like this, he wants to find trouble with Li Yihan, what is the difference between that and suicide?
It's just that what Dai Feng didn't expect was that this woman who made him extremely afraid had already fallen on this mountain range.
And the first person to know the news of Li Yihan's fall was naturally the Li family.
In the palace of the Yuehua Dynasty, there is a hall similar to the Kunlun Shousheng Palace.
Li Clan Ancestral Hall.
This is where the important children of the Li family, the elders and elders of the family place the candles.
Here in the Li Family Ancestral Hall, there are four cultivators with good strength stationed all year round, who are responsible for taking care of these life candles. As long as there is a problem with the life candle, these people will spread the news as soon as possible, and then hand it over to the head of the Li family to decide, under normal circumstances, the life candle will hardly have a chance to go out, at most there will be some strange textures, and this phenomenon means that the owner of the life candle encountered some trouble and was seriously injured.
With the breath on the life candle, the Li family has a set of techniques that can trace the breath to facilitate quick rescue.
This point is a little different from the method of Kunlun Shousheng Palace. Because if the life candle in the Kunlun Shousheng Temple is extinguished, the temple keeper can extract the image of the last record of the life candle, so as to know the true identity of the person who killed the Kunlun disciple, so as to take revenge.
Not long ago, Li Qi's life candle was suddenly extinguished, and the entire Li family was shocked at that time.
Originally, the head of the Li family was already going to launch a force to investigate the matter thoroughly, but then I don't know why, the matter was over, only Li Qiming's father Li Gang was extremely angry, as for how he dealt with it later, it is not something that ordinary people can know.
At this time, a white-haired old man who was in charge of guarding the Li Clan Ancestral Hall suddenly let out an exclamation!
"How is this possible!"
After hearing the old man's words, the remaining three guards immediately turned their heads to look.
The next moment, everyone's faces changed in unison.
The life candle placed next to Li Qi's life means that Li Yihan's life candle has been extinguished at this moment!
Everyone's faces showed disbelief, one of the most outstanding disciples of the Li family, Li Gang's eldest daughter, Li Yihan, who had survived five thunder tribulations, actually fell? This guardian felt incredulous and shocked by this sudden news, and his brain completely lost the ability to think at this moment, and all that was left was a blank blank blank, and after a long time, it was the white-haired old man who took the lead in reacting, and hurriedly rang the bell in the Li family ancestral hall.
In the entire backyard of the palace, whether it was the disciples of the Li family, the elders, the guest qing, the Yuan Lai, or even the heads of the various branches and the emperors of the Yuehua Dynasty, everyone was stunned by the sudden ringing of the bell.
Because it had already sounded once a few months ago, but now it has sounded again!
Everyone was silently counting the number of times the bell would ring.
The number of times the bell rings represents the identity of the person who extinguished the candle.
The highest is nine sounds, the lowest is one sound, and when Li Qiming fell that day, five sounds, which is already the most sensational event for the Li family in the past hundred years. And now, listening to the sound of the bell ringing more than five times, the faces of many children of the Li family have become extremely difficult to look at, the fifth Ming is the disciple of the Li family who has the identity of the heir, and this level is already the core layer of the Li family.
And above Liuming, basically either the elders of the Li family, or the extremely outstanding important children of the Li family, or people with extremely noble status like Canghua.
When the bell stopped ringing at the seventh ringing, including the current head of the Li family, the emperor of the Yuehua Dynasty, his face also changed.
People at this level, no matter how light their status is, at least they are still in the status of an external elder. And the fall of any of the outer elders means that the Yuehua Li family has completely lost a power lurking in the shadows, and if it is a disciple like Li Canghua and Li Yihan who has status, status, or extremely strong strength, potential, and talent, then this loss will be even greater!
When the current head of the Li family rushed to the Li Clan Ancestral Hall, he saw Li Gang who rushed over first. And at this moment, Li Gang, who was originally majestic and handsome, looked at the life candle on the life platform with blank eyes, his head was full of black silk and white, and the head of the Li family buzzed and understood, but his heart was still unwilling to admit it, but when he saw that the flame on Li Yihan's life candle had been completely extinguished, his face turned red with anger.
"Didn't I warn you not to go to Lu Li's trouble?" Almost without probing, the head of the Li family knew what was going on, and he let out an angry roar, "Didn't I let you read the message sent by Canghua?" And you are also very clear about the evaluation of Lu Li by the family elders, but you actually let Yi Han go to him for trouble?"
Li Gang didn't seem to hear his eldest brother's voice at the moment, he just looked at the life candle on the fate platform with dull eyes, and his voice was empty: "It's all dead...... They're all dead......"
I had the heart to continue scolding, but looking at Li Gang's appearance, the current head of the Li family couldn't say anything anymore. Li Gang's two sons and daughters are all rare geniuses in the Li family, Li Yihan needless to say, her future achievements are definitely not low, if she didn't have to comprehend the realm, she would at least change her life now, and Li Qiming, although her strength is not as high as his sister Li Yihan, and her talent and potential are also incomparable, but compared to the other disciples of the Li family, she is already a rare genius, and stepping into the pure yang realm is never a problem.
But now, the two most outstanding disciples of the Li family have fallen into the hands of the same person!
However, for the entire Li family, it was only the loss of two extremely excellent disciples, but for Li Gang, the situation was completely different, because these two sisters and brothers were both Li Gang's sons and daughters! Perhaps thinking of the pain of being a father, the head of the Li family could no longer say anything scolding, he just let out a heavy sigh, and then the Li family elders, patriarchs, and side branch family heads who rushed to the Li family ancestral hall could only sigh when they saw this scene in front of them.
It's just that what the Li family doesn't know is that the Zhuo family, located in the Xuanyuan Dynasty, is also staging this scene in front of them.
Zhuo Yuanjian's life candle was extinguished in front of a stick of incense.
And this also means that the future designated heir of the Zhuo family, Zhuo Yuanjian, has fallen!
Compared with the flourishing branches of the Li family, the three best disciples of the younger generation of the Zhuo family have all fallen, which also means that in the future competition for the next generation, the Zhuo family will always be in a backward position, unable to compete with the other big families of the Xuanyuan Dynasty!
