Chapter 179: The Arrival of the Heavenly Venerable
"Newspaper, Your Majesty, great joy! Silence him, he is gone!" a guard re-entered Jin Zhang's dormitory in a hurry, panting for breath.
Jin Zhang, who was originally full of sorrow, immediately jumped up from the bed when he heard this, and his face flushed with excitement: "God help me! The three armies listen to the order, make a little preparation, and attack Black Rock City at any time!" After that, he walked to the window, put his hands behind his back, looked in the direction of Black Rock City, and sneered: "Jin Rong, Jin Ting, my good brother, without silence, I see what capital you still have to fight against me!"
Three days later, with the sound of a distant trumpet, an army of 60,000 barbarians launched a fierce attack on Blackstone City, while Jin Rong and Jin Ting defended the city with orderly commanders, fighting, bloodshed, and flames, and no one knew how long the battle would last.
When the battle between Jin Rong and Jin Zhang was in full swing, Shen Mo had already returned to Zanglu Mountain; as soon as he reached the foot of the mountain, the guards clasped their fists and saluted, and reported: "Patriarch, the Heavenly Venerable has been waiting for you for a long time. ”
How did he come?
Shen Mo was puzzled for a while, and hurriedly took Li Xianyuan up the mountain, and after the waiter told the news of Shen Mo's return to Tongtian Shangzun, Tongtian Shangzun appeared in front of Shen Mo after a while, and as soon as they met, he sighed with emotion: "You can be regarded as coming back, if you don't come back, I will personally go to the extreme north to find you." ”
Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, and wondered: "Master, what's the matter so anxious?"
The Heavenly Venerable sighed again and again: "It's a long story, you go to the sect space with me first, and I'll tell you in detail when I get there." ”
Although he didn't know what was going on with the Heavenly Venerable, Shen Mo still followed him to the sect space without the slightest hesitation, and he didn't even have time to say goodbye to Leng Yi and them;
Seeing that the Heavenly Venerable was impatient along the way, he knew that something must have happened, and this was not a good thing.
When Shen Mo was brought to the Mixed Yuan Stone by the two Venerables, Shen Mo was surprised to find that a huge crack had appeared in the Mixed Yuan Stone.
"Master, this?" Shen Mo said as he looked at the cracks on the Mixed Yuan Stone, incredulous.
Heavenly Venerable sighed: "It's been two hundred years, I thought that the Mixed Yuan Stone could support it for another hundred years, and when the strength of the Mixed Yuan Sect was strong enough, the seal would be broken again, and we would be able to deal with it calmly, but now the strength of the Mixed Yuan Sect is too weak, if the seal is broken, it will be slaughtered by blood." ”
"What seal? What the hell is going on?" Shen Mo's brows furrowed, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
The face of the Xuqing Venerable next to him was also very nervous: "Since the matter has come to this point, there is no need to hide anything; back then, the ancestor understood the mystery of the mixed yuan stone and created the mixed yuan sect, but at the same time, he also found that this mixed yuan stone was actually an enchantment between the two spaces, and when the flood was desolate, the supreme venerable pressed this spirit stone here, sealing the sect space and the other world opposite. ”
Speaking of this, Xuqing Venerable paused and sighed: "According to the information left by the patriarch, the world on the other side of the spirit stone is a high-level world; the strong are like clouds, and the hegemons are like rain, and pulling out one person at random is enough to defeat the entire sect space; once the seal is broken, the sect space will be slaughtered by blood, and the connection between the sect space and the human world is too close, when the sect space is destroyed, the human world will be unavoidable, and when the time comes, all living beings will be destroyed, and everything will be destroyed." ”
Hearing this, Shen Mo was shocked: "Master, isn't there any way to strengthen the seal?"
Xuqing Venerable shook his head: "You also know the mystery of the Mixed Yuan Stone, but the seal is activated by the Mixed Yuan Stone, and the seal itself is much more mysterious than the Mixed Yuan Stone, with our current ability, we can't penetrate the seal at all, so how can we strengthen it?" Maybe you can, but I have calculated with the Heavenly Venerable that it will take you at least ten years to penetrate the seal, and the Mixed Yuan Stone can no longer hold on for so long. ”
"So what now?" Shen Mo also felt a great sense of threat.
The Heavenly Venerable, who had been silent, breathed a sigh of relief: "This is the reason why I called you here; now, among the sect space, the human world, and the demon world, only you are the strongest among the three realms, if you are to guard the seal, there may be a glimmer of life." ”
He was stunned for a moment, and thought he had misheard: "Let me guard the seal?" Didn't you just say that the world is as strong as a cloud?"
Heavenly Venerable nodded: "Yes, but now there is only one way, the seal is already unavoidable, we must do our best to defend this place, otherwise, the Three Realms will be destroyed." ”
"How to keep?" this is the question that Shen Mo is most concerned about, although he has now reached the 'saint' level, but listening to the meaning of the words of the two masters, it is obvious that there are countless powerhouses in the opposite world who have reached the holy level, how can he fight against such a huge force with his own strength?
Tongtian Venerable and Xuqing Venerable glanced at each other, and said in unison: "We don't know how to keep it." ”
Shen Mo was depressed for a while, although he was a little lacking in strength, but thinking of the safety of Leng Yi and the others, Shen Mo could only bite the bullet.
After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Two Venerables, I have a question. ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”
"Can the link between the Three Realms be fully opened?"
Hearing this, Tongtian Venerable frowned: "As long as the strength is sufficient, it is completely possible, but if you open the link channel of the Three Realms, aren't you afraid that the Three Realms will be incompatible with each other and cause internal strife? After all, human beings are greedy, the demon clan is aggressive, and even the people in the sectarian space have the problem of being self-assured; if they don't get it right, before the seal is broken, the people of the three worlds will already kill each other." ”
"There is no need to worry, although the Three Realms are incompatible with each other, but the great enemy is current, I believe they will all put aside the old enmity and fight the enemy together. ”
Although it is very risky to open the Three Realms Passage, if there is Shen Mo in charge, I believe that everyone will not dare to mess around, and after figuring it out, the two Venerables will be relieved and promise to be silent, as long as he needs it, he will open the Three Realms Passage.
Then, Shen Mo squatted in front of the Mixed Yuan Stone, staring at the crack, and began to think about how to defend in his heart, thinking about this for three days, but Shen Mo was disheartened and found a problem, that is, it seemed that no matter what method was used, it could not effectively defend the enchantment, and there was only one way that was the most promising of all methods, and that was to fight hard.
Although the cost of using this method will be enormous, perhaps with heavy casualties, and perhaps total annihilation, it can only be done at this time, after all, there is no other option to choose silently.
As a defender, the most important thing is the fortifications, and after thinking about it silently, he finally gritted his teeth and ordered someone to tear down the Mixed Yuan Altar. Although this is the forbidden place of the Mixed Yuan Sect, the two Venerables did not stop it, because they had already pinned all their hopes on Shen Mo, as long as they could prevent the seal, let alone tear down the altar, it would not matter if the entire Mixed Yuan Sect was destroyed.
After the altar was razed to the ground, Shen Mo asked the two Venerables to open the passage of the world first, find the King of Jin Yuan, and tell the ins and outs of the matter; King Jin Yuan realized the seriousness of the matter, and swore that no matter what he wanted, he would give his full support, and at the same time spread the news to the surrounding countries.
With the help of King Jin Yuan, many things were much easier to do; Shen Mo first gathered 10,000 craftsmen and dug out almost the entire craftsmen of the Jin Yuan Kingdom;
Take them to the sect space and have them build fortifications around the seal.
The blueprint design of this fortification was carried out by Fang Yan; with the seal as the starting point, a stone wall with a height of 30 meters and a thickness of 10 meters was built around it, leaving an open space in the middle that could accommodate 10,000 people for future battles; at the same time, the inside and ground of the wall were wrapped with obsidian that could greatly offset the aura, so as to form an iron bucket array, which could effectively prevent the enemy from wandering around and carrying out centralized siege and killing.
This was undoubtedly a huge siege, and it would take at least a year for these 10,000 craftsmen alone, but with the help of the masters of the sectarian space, it only took a month to complete the construction.
Shen Mo then ordered the craftsmen to build a large number of military forts, houses, and warehouses around the perimeter of the wall for the garrison of the army.
By the time everything was done, three months had passed, and the cracks in the Mixed Yuan Stone had expanded from the thickness of the original thumb to the thickness of the arm, and according to the Heavenly Venerable's estimate, the seal would be broken in another three months.
Time is pressing, Shen Mo did not dare to have the slightest delay, let the two lords completely open the passage of the Three Realms, personally find the monarch of a great kingdom, and let them each send 30,000 of the most elite troops to be stationed outside the seal, because this is related to the survival of the Three Realms, plus it is Shen Mo himself, so the major monarchs did not hesitate at all, and sent troops one after another, and in the end, the human army alone had 300,000 elite divisions.
At the same time, Shen Mo went to the demon realm and found Ruxue, who did not hesitate at all, and did her best to gather the elite of the 20,000 elites, although there were only 20,000, but it was enough to match the 300,000 elite divisions of the enemy class.
In addition, Shen Mo brought all the masters of the Shen family and the Black Dragon Mercenary Group under his command to the sect space;
Perhaps it was because of the critical moment that everyone had the ambition to protect their homes and defend the country, and many folk masters also asked for help, hoping to contribute their own strength; at this time, one more person would have more strength, so Shen Mo did not refuse, and countless Linghai Realm masters emerged from the entire continent for a while, and there were more than 5,000 people in the final count; perhaps their overall strength was not high, but it was still a force that should not be underestimated.
After three months of hard work, Shen Mo brought almost all the power he could use to the sect space; the originally peaceful sect space became the sound of gongs and drums by the way, and the tension was abnormal; the army that could not see the end at a glance surrounded the three layers inside the seal and the outer three layers solidly; and on the wall, Shen Mo stood there, quietly staring at the mixed element stone.
Although no one knows what will happen next, but Shen Mo's heart is extremely firm, even if what awaits them is a catastrophe, he will fight until the last moment, not for the world, but for the one in his heart.
