Chengkang for eight years.

Another year of death, Shen Dacheng, who was driving the car, was getting older and older.

That's the rate at which people age.

Think about the strong middle-aged man more than 20 years ago, and now he is almost in his prime.

"Master Ye, the villain wants to let my son come to drive the carriage next year."

Shen Dacheng knew that he was running out of food.

But he still wanted to continue to repay Master Ye's favor.

"Old Shen, take care of your days."

Ye Cheng looked at the old Shen Dacheng and patted him on the shoulder, "This house will be rewarded to you, as your retirement place." ”

Thump!

Shen Dacheng's face was panicked, and he quickly knelt down, "Ye, Master Ye, this is absolutely unacceptable, the villain can have today, it is already a gift from you, master." ”

"When you and I meet, it's fate, and it's rare that this fate can last so much."

Ye Cheng sighed and said: "The deed is in the house, and there is a bottle of elixir, Lao Shen, I hope you can have a happy old age." ”

Shen Dacheng looked up and saw that Ye Cheng was still missing.

"Master Ye"

He hurriedly searched around, muttering: "How is this good, how is this good"

After he couldn't find Ye Cheng, he returned to the house in despair and saw the deed of the house on the table, as well as a jade bottle.

He was a little confused.

But he immediately felt a little empty in his heart, knowing that he was afraid that he would never see Master Ye again in the future.

Ye Cheng left the house and felt much more comfortable.

He passed by the bookstore called Youjian Bookstore again, and walked in to see if there were any new books.

The boss is still sitting in a rocking chair with his eyes closed as he did more than a year ago.

As he reached the door, the boss suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.

This startled Ye Cheng.

The boss looked Ye Cheng up and down, his expression was very complicated.

There seems to be surprise, doubt, disbelief, shock, excitement, etc. on the face is unpredictable.

This made Ye Cheng a little hairy.

"Boss, what are you?"

Ye Cheng couldn't help but ask.

"Are you really the one who oversaw the kingdom Gong Ye Cheng?"

The boss asked.

"Huh? Yes. ”

Ye Cheng was a little surprised, how did this boss recognize him?

Although he is very famous, he is usually very low-key, and there are some differences in dress, which is difficult for ordinary people to recognize when they encounter him.

"Have you been to our store for more than a year and bought a copy of the Ancient Book?"

The boss asked again.

"It does."

Ye Cheng said.

"You were a grandmaster before?"

The boss asked a third question.

"I don't know what the boss is asking for this?"

Ye Cheng couldn't help but ask.

"Ye Cheng, you shouldn't be less than forty years old."

The boss's expression became solemn, "Tsk, the great grandmaster who is less than forty years old is really a genius." ”

Ye Cheng's face changed slightly, he had broken through the Great Grandmaster for a year, and he had never revealed the realm of cultivation, how did this boss know?

At this time, he already understood that this boss was definitely not an ordinary person.

It's a supreme powerhouse that even he can't see through.

I didn't expect that in this Yujing, an unimaginable top powerhouse would live in seclusion in this small bookstore, it's really unbelievable.

"You come in with me, it's not convenient to talk here."

The boss got up and walked into the bookstore.

Ye Cheng hesitated for a moment, but finally walked in.

However, he was very vigilant inside.

Behind this bookstore, there is a very deep and large mansion, with a rockery pond inside, deep grass and trees, and extremely elegant.

The boss took Ye Cheng to a bamboo pavilion and sat down.

"I don't know the name of my predecessor?"

Ye Cheng couldn't help but ask.

"The surname is Wen, and the single name is Jiang."

The boss sat down, then looked at Ye Cheng and said, "I originally thought that even if you could touch the realm of the Great Grandmaster in the future, you would not be after fifty, but I didn't expect it to be ten years earlier than I imagined. ”

"So, Senior Wen has been paying attention to me?"

Ye Cheng frowned slightly.

After all, it is a very bad feeling to be noticed by a mysterious powerhouse who does not know the depth and origin of the unknown.

"That's not it, although you are good enough, but there are many outstanding people in the world, I have seen a lot of geniuses like you, although there is enough potential, but in the end, there are very few who can successfully achieve the Great Grandmaster."

Boss Wen Jiang said with a chuckle.

Ye Cheng listened and did not speak.

"And you're already in danger, and you don't know it."

Wen Jiang threw out another terrifying word.

"Senior Wen, what do you mean by this?"

Ye Cheng's brows furrowed.

"I'm also a great grandmaster, you might sense my martial intent realm?"

Wen Jiang chuckled.

"No, if the seniors don't say it themselves, the juniors really can't judge."

Ye Cheng shook his head.

"Do you know why my dignified Grand Master is willing to be a small bookstore owner here, why can't I be like the Moon Venerable of the Red Moon Alliance, the Spirit Worship Sect Master of the Yuan Ling Empire, and be famous all over the world as a great grandmaster?"

Wen Jiang said again.

Ye Cheng's heart tightened, and he understood that there must be some unknown reason in it.

"It's not that the old man doesn't want to, but he can't."

Wen Jiang sighed faintly.

"Senior, why is that?"

Ye Cheng couldn't help but ask.

"You can't say it, you can't say it, remember, you must not expose your great master realm, otherwise a catastrophe is coming."

Wen Jiang shook his head and said.

Ye Cheng's face was full of doubts, why is this?

"You and I are destined, the old man has a lock intent technique here, which can restrain the fluctuation of martial intent, so that people can't judge your martial intent realm."

Wen Jiang took out a thumb-sized piece of lilac jade from his arms and threw it in front of Ye Cheng, "You can directly use your own spirit to check the contents of this jade slip and engrave a copy." ”

Ye Cheng was not afraid of the other party's tricks, so he directly picked up the jade block, and as soon as his spirit moved, he immediately sensed a stream of information integrated into his consciousness.

It is indeed a secret method that can converge and lock the fluctuation of martial intent.

The most amazing thing is that he can directly use spiritual induction to engrave the information in the jade slip into his memory, so that he will not be easily forgotten.

Ye Cheng guessed that this should be a very special method of spiritual use.

"Thank you seniors for giving me the law."

Ye Cheng stood up and bowed and said.

"It's just a little secret art, it's nothing, okay, you can go, and also, take a look at that ancient book."

Wen Jiang waved his hand.

Ye Cheng saw that the boss was really planning to send off guests.

So he didn't say much, and after saluting again, he turned around and walked out of the back door of the mansion and left the bookstore.

The boss Wen Jiang looked at the back of Ye Cheng leaving, and sighed, "The great grandmaster who is less than forty years old has achieved it by himself, and he has never used the method of refining gods, he is really a genius, but it is a pity that he is a eunuch." ”

After Ye Cheng returned to the Prison State Mansion, he recalled the meeting and conversation with Wen Jiang, the owner of a bookstore, and felt like a dream.

He really didn't expect a great grandmaster to live in seclusion in Yujing, so close to him.

Sure enough, it's hidden in the city.

Maybe a very inconspicuous place hides a great master.

He entered the study, picked up the ancient book that had been set aside for a long time, and read it again.

"This Wen Jiang senior, why did you let me look at the Ancient Records? Could it be that this ancient era really existed? ”

Ye Cheng thought to himself.

But even if the ancient era that was incomparably beautiful for warriors really existed, it was also in the past, so what does it have to do with the present?

Ye Cheng always felt that this Wen Jiang seniors had something to say.

"If you become a great grandmaster, you will come to a great disaster, what is the reason for this?"

Ye Cheng sighed, this feeling of playing dumb riddles was really uncomfortable.

Forget it, don't think about it so much.

From now on, it's better to be cautious.

After reading the ancient records, Ye Cheng returned to the quiet room and began to practice the secret method of the locking technique.

After some cultivation, Ye Cheng gradually sensed that his martial intent had converged into a ball, and the fluctuations of his martial intent that radiated outward had also dropped to the lowest point.

In the next few days, Ye Cheng would read the Ancient Chronicles every day, but the doubts in his heart became stronger and stronger, just like a cat's paw scratching his heart, it was simply too uncomfortable.

In the end, he finally couldn't help it, and went to a bookstore, and he must ask Senior Wen Jiang to understand.

But when he came to a bookstore, he found that it was closed, and even the plaque of the bookstore was gone.

With a sweep of the spirit, all the books in it were long gone.

He sneaked into the house behind the bookstore again, only to learn that the owner had changed.

"Did this Wen Jiang senior run away?"

Ye Cheng was speechless.

He guessed that this Wen Jiang senior was worried that his identity would be exposed after coming into contact with him, so he closed the bookstore and ran away as soon as possible.

"That's too cautious, isn't it?"

Ye Cheng sighed in his heart.

For a great grandmaster to be so cautious, it seems that this so-called catastrophe is really possible.

What kind of powerful forces are targeting the Grand Master?

Ye Cheng was very puzzled in his heart.

But he has already made up his mind that he must be low-key and low-key in the future.

Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it has been 12 years of Chengkang.

In the past few years, Ye Cheng has been very low-key, living in a shallow way, and has never appeared in public again.

Even the Four Nations Martial Arts Meeting held in Tianli City, the capital of Qinglan Kingdom, three years ago, Ye Cheng did not participate.

Even so, Qianguo still won the second place.

Because his cultivation was too slow, Ye Cheng chose other aspects to improve his strength, such as creating his own light martial arts.

The results have been remarkable.

Based on hundreds of light skills, he has created a more intelligent light skill - the end of the world.

This light skill combines the characteristics of square inch movement and long-distance travel, far surpassing any light gong body method that existed at that time.

And there are two martial arts he created.

One is an upgraded version of the life and death talisman with the Cold Shadow Palm Life and Death Sticker as the core.

One is the eighteen swords to ward off evil spirits and upgraded into an evil sword codex.

The power has changed dramatically.

He even created a more advanced innate technique for the eunuchs of the Taiwu Palace, the Sunflower Treasure Book, on the basis of the Nine Turns Extreme Yin Gong and several other Taiwu Hall innate exercises.

The reason why it is named Sunflower Treasure Book is not because of bad taste, but because the visualization map created by the meridian network is very similar to that of sunflowers.

Hall of Eternal Life.

Ye Cheng is playing chess with the Emperor Taishang.

At this moment, the Emperor Su Hong is already very old, his hair is all white, and there are many age spots on his skin.

He cultivated the Dragon Ascension Technique, and the speed of aging was much faster than that of ordinary people.

"Ye Qing, I may not be able to survive for long."

The Emperor's fingers trembled slightly, and it took a lot of effort to put a chess piece in a key position, and then said with a pant.

He is now in a state of spirit, always thinking about dozing off, today the weather is sunny and his eyes are bright, he has a little more energy, and he plays a game of chess with Ye Cheng.

Ye Cheng was silent, just playing a chess piece.

He had already sensed that the vitality of the Emperor Taishang was almost exhausted, that is, he had not cultivated the Dragon Ascension Technique for more than ten years, let alone used the Dragon Ascension Technique, so that he could survive for such a long time, otherwise his life would have already ended.

"Cheng'er only entered the innate last year, I plan to carry out the martial intent evolution for him in a few days, but unfortunately the time is too early, if I can survive for a few more years, how good it would be."

The Emperor Taishang sighed and said.

When Prince Su Cheng was twenty-eight years old last year, he broke through to the innate realm.

The martial arts talent is also extremely good.

But the crown prince Su Cheng has only been comprehending martial intent for less than a year, and he doesn't have much understanding of martial intent at all, even if he accepts the evolution of martial intent and wants to become a grandmaster immediately, the hope is very slim, at most it is just to increase some martial intent perception.

But the Emperor Taishang can't drag it anymore.

Ye Cheng listened to the words of the Emperor Taishang, and his heart was also a little sad.

The Emperor Taishang is still quite good to him.

A familiar person's life is coming to an end, and he doesn't feel very good in his heart.

Three days later.

Still in the Hall of Eternal Life.

Cheng Kandi Su Zhe and Prince Su Cheng are all there.

Usually two people are present at the same time, the Faceling and the Demon General Monko also appeared.

Because today is the day of the Emperor Su Hong, the last moment of the martial intent evolution of the crown prince Su Cheng.

The atmosphere was a little sad.

Prince Su Cheng's eyes were red.

"Your Highness, go in."

Ye Cheng said to the crown prince Su Cheng.

"Me"

Su Cheng knew that he was shouldering the heavy responsibility of the royal family, and if he couldn't take advantage of the evolution of the emperor's martial intent to become a grandmaster, the future would only become more and more difficult.

"Just keep a normal mind, you're still young."

Ye Cheng said.

Prince Su Cheng nodded, took a deep breath, and resolutely stepped into the Hall of Eternal Life.

As the doors of the temple closed, the minutes passed.

The people outside the hall all had complicated expressions.

Especially the Facelings and Demon General Mo Ke, thirty years ago, the former Emperor Su Yuan also performed martial arts evolution for the Emperor Su Hong.

Now it's going to happen again.

I don't know how long it took, but the door of the temple slowly opened.

Prince Su Cheng walked out with a disappointed face.

He did not comprehend the martial intent and broke through to the realm of the grandmaster.

"Cheng'er, it's okay."

Cheng Kandi Su Zhe comforted: "How is the imperial grandfather? ”

But his voice trembled a little, after all, he had a deep affection for his father.

"Father, Grandpa Huang let you in."

Prince Su Cheng said in a heavy tone.

Cheng Kandi Su Zhe knew that this was his father's intention to explain the future.

With a heavy heart, Cheng Kandi Su Zhe entered the main hall.

A few minutes later, Cheng Kandi Su Zhe walked out, his eyes red.

"Master Wu, Master Meng, Father Emperor invites you to go in."

Cheng Kandi Su Zhe said to the Faceling and the Demon General Meng Ke.

The two Grandmasters walked in silently.

Less than two minutes passed, and both the Facelings and the Demon Commander Monko walked out with a sad face.

"Supervisor Guogong, you can go in."

The Faceling said to Ye Cheng.

Ye Cheng nodded, and then stepped into the Hall of Eternal Life.

Unlike in the past, today's Hall of Eternal Life is lit with candles on both sides, and there is a faint scent of sandalwood, which makes the light in the hall quite clear.

Under that huge portrait, the Emperor sat cross-legged.

Skinny as dry bones.

However, the spirit is not bad.

But Ye Cheng knew that the current Emperor Taishang was just returning to the light.

"Ye Qing, this is the last holy decree I gave you."

Emperor Qianhuang suddenly had an extra scroll in his hand.

Ye Cheng couldn't help but be stunned.

The last decree?

"During my reign, Ye Cheng, the superintendent of the country, repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and was ordered to be in times of crisis, appointed between defeats, meritorious service to the country, responsible ministers, and immaculate in righteousness, and I was specially crowned as the king of Taiwu."

Emperor Qianhuang said slowly.

Ye Cheng was surprised in his heart.

Crowned king?

Since the Qianguo state, there has never been a king with a different surname.

Guogong is the limit.

"Carrying out this holy decree, he has the privilege of supervising the subsequent new emperor, and if the new emperor has a grudge against the people, he can be reprimanded, whipped, and abolished."

The Emperor continued.

As he spoke, he reached out and picked up a purple rattan from the side.

Ye Cheng was shocked, he could no longer control his emotions, and he showed a touch of shock.

"Your Majesty, how can Weichen make you trust you so much?"

Ye Cheng's voice trembled a little.

He understood the weight of the last decree of the Emperor Taishang.

It's not just as simple as being crowned.

And the power to oversee the new emperor.

How reassuring it must be to dare to give such great power.

"For the monarch, when there is no doubt about employing people, not for doubtful people."

Emperor Qianyu said: "Ye Qing, this is the dragon ascension recipe that only the grandmaster of my Su clan can cultivate, it can't be passed on according to the ancestral system, however, I want to make an exception, although this secret method costs longevity, in addition to greatly enhancing combat power, but it also has the magic of assisting in the comprehension of martial arts, when the imperial brother relied on this method, almost half a foot stepped into the realm of the great grandmaster, if you peep into the realm of the great grandmaster in the future, maybe you can practice this method to try, with your qualifications, you will definitely be able to comprehend the magic of the supreme grandmaster." ”

"It's a pity, I can't see it, how wonderful the path of martial arts is, but I can't get a glimpse of it, it's a pity!"

The Emperor's voice gradually fell.

Then he lowered his head, and there was no more brilliance in his eyes.

Between the palms of his hands on his knees, an ordinary jade slip rolled out.

Emperor Su Hong!

Sit-down!

He was 81 years old.
