Chapter 1: The Young Thief
There is no sky, no earth and abyss, only endless dark fires burning wantonly, the flames are strange and cold, mysterious and terrifying, like the fire of hell that can incinerate a qiē, and the fire of judgment that can punish all beings in the abyss.
In this world full of dark flames, a thin figure can be vaguely seen, this is a young man, he stood in the void, turned around, looked at the terrifying flames around him, looked frightened and dazed, suddenly, the boy realized that something was wrong, when he looked down, he found that the flames had begun to spread to his feet at some point, and when he squatted down to extinguish it, it was too late, and the dark flames instantly enveloped it and burned wantonly.
"Ahh
Chen Luo woke up from the nightmare, got up from the ground with a bone, looked at the walls around him in fear, looked at the mysterious sigils that faintly flashed on the walls, and when there was a bitter and dull chanting sound in his ears, he slowly exhaled a breath, leaned on the corner, sat on the ground, tilted his head, rested for a while, and his pale face gradually recovered.
After a long time, he unbuttoned the collar of his robe, looked at a flame mark on his shoulder, and his brows couldn't help but frown deeply, this flame mark was black, although it was an imprint, it was lifelike, it was really like the strange and cold dark fire in the dream, but it looked very beautiful, not like a flame, more like a dark flower in full bloom.
What is this weird mark, Chen Luo doesn't know, but since there is such a mark on his body, he will have nightmares every once in a while, in the nightmare, he stands in the endless dark fire and is burned, the feeling hurts to the bone marrow, and what is even more weird is that every time he has a nightmare, the mark on his body will change, at the beginning it was like a flame, more like a bud waiting to be released, and he has had a nightmare for a full year, this bud has bloomed from the beginning to the present.
Shaking his head, he buttoned up his robe, sighed, looked a little remorseful, and muttered, "If only I hadn't touched that damn broken formation a year ago." He sighed again.
Speaking of which, he is not very old, only seventeen years old, most of this age should be practiced in the academy, in order to become a great wizard to be admired, in fact, Chen Luo is indeed the case, a year ago he was an apprentice of Xiao Luotian Academy, and he is also a high-profile senior apprentice, not only that, he is also a recognized genius of the academy, and he is also highly expected by the teachers of the academy, and he is admitted to the world's top central university to win glory for the academy.
Originally, it was very smooth, and Chen Luo was also confident that he would pass the assessment, but just a year ago, he accidentally discovered a strange and broken formation, so his hand itched and wanted to break it to see what secrets were hidden inside.
In fact, Chen Luo has always had a secret that he has never told to outsiders, he is an orphan who has followed his master since he was sensible. Yun Youzi's learning formation, over the years, in addition to the necessary practice, more time is in the study of formation, when he entered Xiao Luotian Academy when he was nine years old, his attainments in the field of formation have surpassed some famous formation masters, and in the next few years, he was fascinated by the way of cracking, the satisfaction after cracking the formation made him enjoy it very much, and the secret hidden inside the formation cracked greatly satisfied his curiosity, so he became a professional thief.
In just a few years, the formations that he cracked and stole were hundreds of large and small, what ten thousand arrow arrays, as long as he wanted, he could make that formation unable to shoot an arrow, what teleportation array, as long as he wanted, he could teleport anywhere, what guardian array, as long as he wanted, he could enter and exit freely at any time.
For this reason, he has become a notorious formation thief, the number one wanted criminal in various universities, major guard regiments, and major glory regiments, and even ranked ninth on the world's most wanted list, throwing many vicious dark wizards out of the streets.
Whether it was a genius senior apprentice of Xiao Luotian Academy, or a notorious world-class formation thief who wandered on the edge of darkness, Chen Luo had always hidden it very well, and this qiē was originally normal, until a year ago ("" "See the latest chapter) found that strange broken formation, when he started to prepare to crack it, he only felt a sharp pain all over his body, as if he was burned by flames, and then passed out.
When his consciousness gradually became clear, he found that he had been imprisoned in this Tower of Punishment, which is a place of punishment, specializing in imprisoning some evil wizards who infected the darkness, but Chen Luo had never been infected with the darkness, but was imprisoned here, at first he was very confused, and then gradually figured out that after he was unconscious, he was discovered by a person who was adventuring the Glory Regiment, and the people of the Glory Regiment found that they were abnormal, and suspected of infecting the darkness, so they handed it over to the local Light Guard Regiment, and then, the Light Guard Regiment announced his crime: infecting the darkness, violating the Law of Light, abolishing cultivation, and being imprisoned for one year and five months。
Chen Luo was sure that he had never been infected with the darkness, but why did the Light Guardian think that he had been infected with the darkness?
This question made him think about it for a long time, and the final result may be that the strange formation contains a dark aura, and when he cracked it, he was infected with some of it, so he was unlucky enough to be imprisoned here.
Now that I've been imprisoned here for more than a year, right? Because it's dark in this damn place, I can't figure out how many days I've been imprisoned.
"Alas......"
Sighing, every now and then Chen Luo will think of his master who has been dead for three years, the biggest regret of his old man's life is that he failed to enter the world's top (see the fastest update) tip is also known as the world's first central university, and then open the central treasury, his old man said that the treasure house hides the world's biggest secret, but unfortunately, the master did not do so until he died.
Before his death, Chen Luo promised the old man that he would definitely step into the Central Academy, open the Central Treasury, and then come to the Master's tombstone with the world's biggest secret and read it to him in person.
Originally, before going according to the plan, he was admitted to the Central Academy, and then he tried to find a way to open the treasure house.
And he was also confident that he would pass the assessment of the Central Academy when he was eighteen years old, but unfortunately something like this happened, and what made him even more disappointed was that the spiritual power he had worked so hard to cultivate was completely wiped out by the people of the Light Guard Regiment.
If you want to participate in the assessment of the Central Academy, you must meet two conditions, first, you must be under the age of eighteen, and second, you must reach the second realm and open up your own spiritual sea.
Chen Luo is seventeen years old this year, and he has only one year left to cultivate, and if he wants to cultivate from zero to the second realm within a year, it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky.
The only thing to be thankful for is that although the spiritual power has been abolished, but the spiritual power is still there, as long as he has the spiritual power, he can arrange the formation, but I don't know why, since the strange dark flame mark appeared on his back, the spiritual power has also become very weak, and he can't concentrate it at all, otherwise, with his attainments in the field of formation, it is not difficult to get out of here.
The spiritual power was abolished, the spiritual power was in a weak state, unable to arrange the formation, and the terrifying dream caused by the strange dark flame imprint, what a mess to think about......
"Hey, Brother Chen, I have good news for you, do you want to hear it?"
Hearing the voice, Chen Luo, who was sitting in the corner against the wall, raised his head slightly, standing outside the cell was a man, Chen Luo knew him, he was a jailer here, named Wang Dali, he was a very good person, and he had taken care of himself in the past year since he was imprisoned.
"Brother Wang, what good news do you think I can have in the broken place?" Chen Luo looked listless, looking quite decadent.
"Look at your unproductive appearance, you have only been locked up for a year and a half and become like this, if you are locked up for a hundred and eighty years, you will not be crazy?" Wang Dali glanced at him with great contempt, saw Chen Luo shook his head helplessly, and hurriedly said: "Come on, I'll sue you directly, you still have three days to go out." ”
"Go out?" Chen Luo was stunned, as if he didn't react for a while, and then, he blinked, a little incredulous, and asked suspiciously: "You won't be making fun of me, right?"
"Go, go, you should know very well that you have been here for more than a year, the jailer will never joke about this, I deliberately went to secretly look through your file today, and I can see it clearly, you can go out in three days." ”
Chen Luo closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and smiled and said hello.
"I said Brother Chen, you won't be stupid here, right?
Chen Luo just shook his head and smiled slightly, he was not excited, but he didn't show it, he had been imprisoned here for nearly a year and a half, and he had thought a lot, both his mood and his temperament had changed dramatically.
Wang Dali wanted to say something more, but at this time, another jailer came, and seeing his unhappy and sullen look, he quipped: "Lao Zhang, what's wrong with you?
"Your daughter-in-law just ran away?" Lao Zhang replied angrily.
"My daughter-in-law didn't run, how could she cry and lose her face. ”
"Well, don't mention it, I may be transferred to the Light Guard in a while. ”
"You were finally transferred here, why were you transferred back again?"
"The Light Guard is short of manpower right now, and I'm a Light Guard, so I've been transferred back. ”
"The Light Guard is short of manpower, what are they going to do?"
This made Lao Zhang's jailer sigh and said, "They transferred me over to find a trace of a person. ”
"Who are you looking for, and do you need so many people?"
"More? Is this still called more? Let's tell you the truth, now the light guards of not only one of our domains are looking for it, but the light guard regiments of the ninety-six domains of the entire Xuanhuang World have received orders from the Temple of Light to track down that person's traces with all their might. ”
"An order from the Temple of Light, and the Light Guards of all domains? God, whose traces are you looking for, is it a thousand-year-old lich who has appeared?"
"Hmph, that guy isn't a thousand-year-old lich, but he's no worse than a thousand-year-old lich in the world. Lao Zhang pursed his lips, opened the gourd on his waist, raised his head and poured a sip of wine, and said, "Tongtian Ancestor, you should have heard of it, right?"
"Tongtian Ancestor?"
Hearing this name, Wang Dali couldn't help but gasp, poked his head and asked, "But that guy who is ranked ninth on the world's most wanted list?"
"Who else can there be but him, this guy has been crazy about committing crimes a few years ago, making a mess of the formations of various domains in the world, I don't know why, it's strange to say, this guy hasn't shown up for more than a year, and the Temple of Light feels that he may be plotting something, so he issued an order to let the Bright Guard Regiments of various domains check all important formations. ”
The name Tongtian Ancestor was like a nightmare for the people of the Xuanhuang World, no one knew who he really was, and no one knew where he came from, only that five years ago, this person appeared like out of thin air, dismantled the guardian formation of the City Lord of Moro City, infiltrated it, and opened its treasure house.
In the same year, in June, he successively cracked the guardian formations of the two families and the three glory regiments in Moro City, and in August, he even cracked the guardian array of the central formation tower of Moro City.
In November of the same year, the thirty-two cities in the entire Sea Blue Region were patronized by him, and the major families said that they wanted to arrest him, but he disintegrated the spirit plant formation, and he suffered heavy losses, the light guards of each city arrested him, and he arranged a strange formation to teleport the light guards to the barren area, and the thirty-two formation towers wanted him, but he destroyed the formation center in the tower, paralyzing many related formations.
One year, in just one year, this person made a mess of the entire Sea Blue Domain, from the Domain Lord's Mansion, the Array Tower, down to the Spirit Field, and the Spirit Garden was all destroyed by him, causing the teleportation array in the domain to be chaotic, causing the Spirit Qi Array to leak out everywhere.
In the second year, this person continuously infiltrated many central array towers around the world, opened their library pavilions, and readily read all kinds of precious formation notes, and within a year, more than 400 of them were patronized by him.
In the third year, he infiltrated the famous Hundred Beast Spirit Garden, so that the spirit beasts in it were frightened, sneaked into the treasure spirit field, stole the miraculous medicine, sneaked into the treasure house of the sea of clouds, and absorbed the precious cloud spirit qi, and the spirit field and spirit garden were patronized as many as forty-six this year.
In the fourth year, this person was even more crazy, he actually attracted the attention of the small spirit world, and two of the world's top ten small spirit worlds were destroyed.
In the fifth year, even more incredible, he began to be emboldened, Unscrupulously and openly arguing with the world's major law enforcement centers, many light guards were teleported to the evil forest by him, some were teleported by him to the terrifying ancient relics, some were in a trance, and some people are still missing, he has threatened the guards of the major domains, threatened the top glory regiments, and even the world's first central school has been threatened by him, not only that, he has even threatened the formidable Hall of Light, and he has also put down cruel words, if the Hall of Light pursues him everywhere, he will teleport all the light wizards in the temple to the most terrifying abyss。
These five years are the darkest five years in the Xuanhuang World, the five years when the major array towers and trading houses are the most frightened, and the five years that are the busiest and most aggrieved in the Hall of Light.
In just five years, this person has climbed to the ninth place on the world's most wanted list in one fell swoop, and he is nicknamed the ancestor of the sky.
"It's crazy to think about what this guy Tongtian Ancestor has done in the past five years. It was not the first time that Wang Dali had heard about the deeds of Tongtian Ancestor, but every time he made him sigh and even admire it, he said: "This crazy guy has made a mess of the world for five years, and then he has gone into hiding? No, it shouldn't be, I think the speculation of the Temple of Light is correct, that crazy guy must be plotting a big operation." ”
In prison, Chen Luo's expression was quite complicated, as if he was helpless, and he wanted to laugh, and said secretly in his heart: Damn, the master has been imprisoned here for more than a year, and his cultivation has been abolished by you, not to mention, even his mental power is inexplicably weak now, and I am still plotting a fart!
