Chapter 500: The Secret of the Blood Pool
Firefall is indeed here.
Under the flashes of phoenixes, it only took a few breaths to get here from the Huang family, and at this time, Yanfall stood in the air, looking at Huang Wuchen and Huang Wuyi from afar.
"The Great Elder doesn't know what to do with me?"
Yanfall asked lightly.
"Huh. ”
Huang Wuchen smiled, but did not directly answer Yan Cheng's question: "Since Yan Cheng's little friend is here, please go to Xiaozhu to talk about it." ”
At the end, he added: "You don't think I'm going to set up an ambush inside, do you?"
Yan Yan laughed faintly, and his figure flashed and came to the attic.
"Three Elders. ”
Yan Cheng didn't ignore Huang Wuyi, and nodded slightly to say hello.
"Well, please be seated. ”
Huang unintentionally pointed to the chair next to the table, on which a delicate teapot was boiling, and the aroma was refreshing.
"The two elders asked me to come here not just for tea, right?"
Yan Yan asked straight to the point.
"Yes, this time I invited Yan's little friend, but I actually have something to ask for. ”
Huang had no intention of not selling Guanzi, and after pouring out a cup of turquoise tea, he said.
"Oh, why did you find me?"
Yan Cheng took the teacup, but instead of drinking it, he looked at the two of them with a puzzled face.
"The reason is very simple, now the luck of the Huang family is almost entirely in your hands. ”
This time it was Huang Wuchen who spoke, and there was no joy or sorrow in his voice.
Yanfall didn't drink it in the end, and put down the teacup. His fingers lightly tapped the tabletop: "Great Elder, what do you mean by this?"
"Well, don't worry, little friend. Let's listen to the old man. ”
Huang Wuchen took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and his voice gradually became serious: "Xiaoyou, listen to Wuxin, you still have a teacher?
"I don't know if my family teacher travels all over the world. ”
Yanfall replied perfunctorily.
"Then Flamefall Little Friend can know the strength of the commander?"
"I don't know. ”
"Did the Commander tell you one of the biggest secrets of the Cursed Lands?"
Huang Wuchen's words aroused Yan Cheng's interest.
"Secrets, what secrets, let's hear them. ”
"It seems...... You really don't know. ”
Seeing this, Huang Wuchen's eyes showed a slight hint of disappointment. Then he sighed and said, "This secret is only known to the high-level leaders of the major forces. According to the records in the family's ancient books, since the ancestors were sealed under this sky, the entire abandoned land has never produced an eighth-order powerhouse from then to now. ”
"There are no eighth-order powerhouses? Great Elder. Are you sure? Not a single one?"
Yan Fall's body was stunned. I couldn't help but ask.
"Indeed, there is not one, even those top forces that control the blood pool have never had an eighth-order powerhouse, and the reason why the power is strong is only because of the large number of seventh-order powerhouses. ”
Huang Wuchen nodded.
"Because of the curse?"
"This ...... No one knows for sure, but it should be related. ”
Huang Wuchen's answer was also ambiguous.
Yanfall was silent, this secret was indeed a bit strange. There have been no eighth-order powerhouses for thousands of years, so why are there so few powerhouses at the peak of the seventh-order? If they can reach the strength of the seventh-order peak. Its lifespan can reach at least two hundred years, but looking at the appearance of the Huang family, it seems that except for the ancestor who has never met, it is the strength of this great elder Huang Wuchen, even if Huang Wuchen's strength is only the peak of the middle of the seventh order, he has not yet broken through to the late stage of the seventh order, and he is far away from the eighth order.
"Actually, I came to you this time, in addition to asking you for something, I also want to tell you something about the fate of the Huang family. ”
Huang Wuchen said.
"The fate of the Huang family, I'm sorry, I'm not interested. ”
Yan Yan shook his head slightly, his good impression of the Huang family was limited to a few people, and he did not have a good impression of the entire Huang family.
"What if I say it's about pools of blood?"
"You know I'm interested in blood pools?"
Hearing Huang Wuchen ask, Yan Yan was slightly stunned.
"Hehe, I know very well that entering the blood pool without a blood mark will not have any effect at all, and you are a person without a blood mark, since entering the blood pool will not improve your strength, you still prefer to enter the blood pool, which means that you want to explore the secret of the blood pool. ”
Huang Wuchen said with a smile.
"You know the secret of the blood pool?"
Yan Yan picked up the teacup and took a sip, the fragrance of the tea was indeed strong.
"I don't know, but what I'm going to say next might interest you, would you like to hear it?"
Huang Wuchen kept a faint smile all the time.
"Well, you come and hear it. ”
Yan Yan was a little helpless, Jiang was still old and spicy, although he had already taken precautions, but under the words of the other party, he still unconsciously stepped into the trap.
Huang Wuchen looked up at the sky, his eyes were a little cloudy, as if he was recalling something, and after a long time, he slowly spoke.
"When I was younger, I used to enter a pool of blood, but since then, I haven't entered it, because I have a vague sense that it threatens my life. ”
"That...... Where to start?"
Flamefall wondered.
"Just look at it. ”
Huang Wuchen rolled up his sleeves, Yan Cheng looked over, but found that there was no blood mark on Huang Wuchen's two wrists, and he was inevitably a little shocked for a while, only Yan Cheng himself knew that he did not belong to this abandoned place, so it was natural that there was no curse blood mark on his wrist, but was this Huang Wuchen like himself, not born and raised in this abandoned land?
As if sensing what Lin Feng was thinking, Huang Wuchen shook his head slightly: "I have indeed been here since I was born, and I once had this cursed blood mark. ”
"Then why is it gone now? Could it be that there is a way to get rid of this blood mark?"
Firefall asked.
"There's no way, in fact, why I was able to eliminate this blood mark, even I can't figure it out yet, I only know that after entering the blood pool, there was a comfortable force that wanted to pour into the body, and my intuition told me that by absorbing this energy, I could suppress the blood mark on my wrist, thereby increasing my cultivation speed, but there was a voice in the dark telling me not to absorb it......"
Huang Wuchen smiled bitterly, at that time, my mind was a little firmer than other peers, so I finally suppressed the temptation of that power and did not absorb it.
"And after that?"
Flamefall asked with a frown.
"After that...... The blood pool was closed, everyone came out, and everyone's strength had improved to a greater or lesser extent, but me, my strength had faded a little, and a few elders who had great hopes for me were disappointed in me when they saw that my strength had not entered the realm, and gradually began to alienate me. ”
"From then on, I always had itchy wrists from time to time, and this feeling became more and more intense, until one night, I suddenly realized that the blood marks on my wrists were gone!"
At this time, Huang Wuchen's expression faintly revealed a bit of disbelief, as if he had just had a dream.
"The blood mark disappeared, and my cultivation speed has been greatly improved, but I didn't say anything, and I also kept a low profile to cover up my natural strength, and then I went all the way to the present. ”
Yan Yan rubbed his temples, what Huang Wuchen said was slightly more informative, as long as a normal person thought about it, he would feel that this passage was full of loopholes and many doubts.
First, this blood seal is the curse of the demon race, and according to all the cultivators in the forsaken land, the blood pool is a gift from the heavens, which can allow them to suppress the curse of the blood seal, so as to speed up their cultivation, but why did Huang Wuchen not cultivate in the blood pool, and the blood mark disappeared instead? The cultivation speed has also returned to the normal level of human beings.
Second, Huang Wuchen was obviously not a powerhouse who broke through the seventh order in his thirties, otherwise he would not be at least a hundred years old and still lingering in the middle of the seventh order, that is to say, people who have blood seals and have been baptized by the blood pool will have a much faster cultivation speed in the later stage, just like Huang Ting, who is known as a genius girl who can break through the seventh order in her thirties.
On the contrary, Huang Wuchen, who had no blood mark, slowly swallowed his cultivation in the later stage, which could be regarded as matching the human cultivation speed expected in Yan Cheng's heart, Yan Yan felt very early that he was still in the fifth order at the age of twenty, and he could break through the seventh order in his thirties, which was a bit abnormal.
Third, and most importantly, the existence of this blood mark is sometimes good and sometimes bad? It seems that the cultivators of the entire Forsaken Land have begun to be inseparable from the blood seal, and every time they get the suction of the blood pool, it is like taking drugs, and their strength has skyrocketed, and once they don't go to the blood pool, their strength will stagnate.
These three points have turned into a mystery and haunted Yan Cheng's heart, and I have to say that the information that Huang Wuchen revealed today is very important to him.
"There is another incident that was recorded by an elder of a family. ”
Huang Wuchen seemed to remember something, and suddenly spoke.
"Oh, what's the record?"
Yan Cheng's heart moved, and he asked.
"I heard...... From ancient times to the present, every strong person who has broken through to the peak of the seventh order has the intention of impacting the eighth order, in order to make a breakthrough in their own strength, many people have gone to the blood pool, but these people who have entered the blood pool have never come out, some people say that these strong people have died in it, this view has been denied by many people when it first appeared, the younger generation, those with low strength can come out unharmed, why can't the strong people at the peak of the seventh order go in and get out?"
"There is also a saying that these strong men found a way out in the blood pool through their strength, a way out to the outside world, so they all left the abandoned land. ”
Hearing these two words, Yan Cheng's brows furrowed even tighter.
The first argument does sound outrageous at first glance, after all, the stronger the strength, the stronger the ability to protect yourself.
But there are also doubts in it, could it be that those seventh-order peak powerhouses who have entered it don't have the slightest intention of thinking about their children and grandchildren?
Or is it ...... They want to go, but they can't?! (To be continued......
