Chapter 112: Ordered in Danger
"Anyway, there wasn't anything they wanted on the Tower of Babel, and the battle was fierce enough for Misty Wind to gain trust in the mysterious organization. ”
The sloppy old man took a sip of the gourd and continued: "If the Phantom Ice King can't find that thing, he may turn back soon, hehe, so we have to hurry up just now." Of course, even the fog wind doesn't know where we are now. This is the safest thing for him. ”
"Uh-huh, I see. The little Xuannu nodded and said as if she didn't understand. After eating and drinking, she rolled up her sleeves and started doing what she liked best, picking up the broom and starting to clean. It embarrassed everyone and planned to ignore it directly.
And Tong Xuan found a room in the courtyard to meditate and cultivate, because this is an internal matter of the undead race, and as a person from Turtle Island, he can't interject, and it's not easy to understand more. It's better to hurry up and use the abundant aura here to recover your losses in the big war.
At this time, on the ground, which was 15,000 zhang away from the temple of Yuxi, the sky was already white, and the first rays of sunlight on the earth shone on the spire of the Tower of Babel. From time to time, loud noises and explosions could be heard in the towering tower, which was due to someone touching the rune prohibition in the tower.
On every floor of the Tower of Babel, especially where the ancestors sat down, there were a lot of rune prohibitions and protections, and in some places there were also powerful golden people guarding them, so it was not easy to go up to the top floor.
However, due to the presence of two great rune array masters and the powerful lineup of martial artists, the Phantom Ice King was already close to the top at this time.
"But where have all the undead gone? How can I help the princess break the seal?" asked Yu Jiu.
"Well, that organization had contact with Fog Wind in a Hundred Gate War, so Fog Wind pretended to betray the clansmen and left some of the warriors to delay time, so that most of the clansmen were able to evacuate smoothly under the leadership of the Four Elders Yu Lu. ”
Zhang Lao pondered and replied, "Now your clansmen should be somewhere in the Xuan Ice Domain of the Northern Continent, but I don't know exactly where they are. However, even after 10,000 years, such a large migration of ethnic groups should leave some clues. It shouldn't be difficult to find it when you go to the Northern Continent when you go to the Northern Continent after this is over. ”
"As for the princess. It's not hard to break the seal. And it's also a step for her to complete the legacy. It's just a bit of a formality, hehe. Zhang Lao said and looked at Yang Rui with a smile, which made Yang Rui feel a tingling scalp.
"It doesn't have anything to do with me...... the corners of the boy's mouth twitched, and he shrugged helplessly.
"It's really something that only you can do. Because you need to go to the undead Protector Array Stone. The sloppy old man's eyes were filled with a sly smile. I don't know what he wants to say.
"I promised the Snake to help the undead complete the inheritance. I'll still be able to come out of this Dharma Protector Formation Stone. The boy scratched his head and took out the palm-sized crystal disc from his bosom.
The black runes in the crystal disc were actually slowly wriggling without urging, making a buzzing sound. It seems to resonate with this place.
"Hmph, the Dharma Protector Array Stone is a sacred stone that has been passed down from generation to generation in my clan, how can you say that you want it, and you will give it when you say it?" Yu Jiuyin had a gloomy face, his eyes stared sharply at the young man, and he said in a dry and hoarse voice: "I have already said in the ancient tomb, the patriarch's order cannot be violated!"
"Since you have been chosen by the patriarch and the predecessors of the Singing Snake, and you have been recognized as the master by this Dharma Protector Array Stone, there are some things that you must bear!"
"This ...... If it could be used by me, I wouldn't shirk it. When the young man heard this, he quickly changed his words and said, maybe it was the shadow in the ancient tomb, he didn't want to anger this corpse-like old man.
"That's pretty much it. Yu Jiu said and turned to Zhang Lao and asked, "What are the problems in the formalities you are talking about?"
"Ahem...... Originally, this temple was a place where only the patriarchs of the undead and the holy women could enter. Zhang Lao coughed dryly, stroked his beard and said, "Outsiders like us can only move in limited places, and many places, especially the altar of the temple, have strong rune prohibitions, making it impossible for outsiders to enter. ”
"And whether it is to break the seal of the princess or complete the inheritance, it must be done at the altar of the temple. Therefore, it is not enough to be recognized by the Dharma Protector Array Stone, but also to officially become the patriarch of the undead race!"
"What?" As soon as these words came out, not only Yang Rui, but also Yu Jiu were taken aback. After all, it is unusual to let an outsider succeed the patriarch.
"Now do you know what the formalities I mentioned are?" said Zhang Lao with a smile.
"Hmm......" Yu Jiu was silent for a while and then said slowly: "According to the clan rules, the selection of this patriarch must first be recognized by the previous patriarch and the Dharma Protector Array Stone, these are not problems, but it also needs to be appointed by the Great Elder and inject him with the inheritance mark of the immortal race......"
"But the Great Elder, he ......"
Not only the patriarch, but even the Great Elder was also defeated in the attack 10,000 years ago, and there are few powerhouses left of the undead race now.
This made Yu Jiu feel shocked and sad, and when he said this, he couldn't help but pause a little dazedly, sighed and continued: "In addition to the patriarch and the great elder, another elder who knows how to inherit the mark is Yu Wufeng, but he will be with the enemy...... It's a bit tricky!"
"That...... The Great Elder is with me now. Hearing this, the young man suddenly spoke, looking at Yu Jiu's surprised expression, and took out the Jiuyang Divine Furnace with a bang.
This divine furnace contains a trace of the remnant soul of the undead Great Elder Yu Qingyang, because it consumed too much energy before, so if it is not summoned, it will be sleeping here. The divine furnace appeared, and the phantom of the old man in the gray robe and felt hat also appeared.
"Boy, where is this, don't wake up the old man casually!" The phantom opened his eyes scolding, as if he was very dissatisfied with being woken up, but then he saw the two people next to the young man, "Hey, Zhang Lao, Yu Jiu, you are also here!"
"Great Elder!" a hint of excitement flashed in Yu Jiu's indifferent eyes, and he stood up from his position with a swoop.
And Zhang Lao arched his hand with a smile. There was not much surprise, because the moment he saw Yang Rui, he already felt the breath of Yu Qingyang.
"Where the hell is this, Princess?" The Great Elder looked around blankly, this was the first time he had entered this magnificent temple, and he remembered that Yu Jiu should have stayed with Princess Yu Ji.
"This is the Temple of Yuxi, the real second sacred place of the undead, and the princess is ......"
So, Yu Jiu briefly recounted the current situation to the Great Elder. When he heard about the arrangement of the misty wind and the previous battle, the Great Elder couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, obviously feeling thrilled as well.
"Well, according to the clan rules. If a foreigner becomes a candidate for chief. You must marry the princess and leave an offspring before you can be officially awarded the Seal of Succession. After listening to the narration, the Great Elder said in a loud voice.
Yang Rui shrugged helplessly when he heard this, Zhang Lao still smiled and said nothing, while Yu Jiu said that his expression was indifferent. But in my heart, I was thinking. Really. The Great Elder is an old stubborn!
"Ahem...... However, I'm not a man of the past. The Great Elder coughed dryly and glanced at Yu Jiu, and continued, "Since this young man has been approved by the Dharma Protector Array Stone. And I'm pretty happy with his performance......"
Yu Jiu looked at the phantom of the Great Elder with a weak heart, thinking that this matter seemed to be a drama, but he did not bother before he made the most difficult decision.
The Great Elder nodded his chin, as if he was constantly considering, "The undead are in an extraordinary moment right now, and this awakening ritual is basically no different from making a blood alliance...... Alas...... Maybe it's providential......"
Then he smiled slightly, and said in a voice that suddenly amplified: "This time, I will make an exception and infuse the inheritance mark for the teenager in advance!"
The young man grinned helplessly, thinking to himself that this undead race was so strong in looking for the patriarch, and he was somehow trapped. But when it came to this, he couldn't back down.
Although I don't know what awaits him next, the boy has a brave heart and is fearless!
Looking at the resolute eyes of the young man, the Great Elder knew that his choice was right, and immediately stopped rubbing, and with a little finger, a black rune gradually emerged, and the rune was squirming gently, looking a little similar to the one in the Dharma Protector Array Stone.
After the rune was formed, the Great Elder's palm fingers shifted, imprinting it on the center of the young man's eyebrows. When the rune touched the boy's body, it immediately emitted a dazzling light. A warm halo spread, then suddenly vanished, submerging into its body along with the runes.
The Dharma Protector Array Stone in his hand hummed continuously, and the faint blue light became more intense, as if it had some kind of connection with the inheritance mark, lifting the most restrictive restriction.
The young man only felt comfortable all over his body, and his eyebrows loosened a little, as if he had been injected with a wave of energy, which connected him to the temple of Yuxi. At this moment, many images from the temple flashed in the young man's mind, and the places full of rune prohibitions were finally opened for him one by one.
The temple has a new owner.
And with the injection of this inheritance mark, the process of the undead race's sacrifices and the layout and use of the temple of Yuxi all emerged in one go. This made the boy feel dizzy, but he still calmed down and digested the knowledge one by one.
A quarter of an hour later, the boy opened his eyes suddenly, looking at the glittering crystal disc in his hand, as if he suddenly understood the mystery. I thought, this time, the biggest gain is this array stone, this transaction is not a loss!
Seeing that his task was completed, the Great Elder breathed a sigh of relief, patted the young man on the shoulder with a smile and said, "From now on, you will be the sixth generation patriarch of the undead race, and I hope you can keep your promise to protect this ancient race and bring it to the light." ”
"Thank you, Great Elder, I will definitely do my best. The young man said, solemnly bowed to the old man's phantom, and put the crystal disc in his arms, with a satisfied smile on his handsome face.
"Well, that's good. The Great Elder nodded, suddenly turned to the sloppy old man who was smiling on the side and said, "Old man Zhang, I remember that it seems that this inheritance mark, in addition to Yu Chen, Wufeng and me, you can also grant it, why do you want to wake me up!"
"Hehe, after all, this is a big deal for the undead race, and this kind of errand is better for you to show your face. The sloppy old man said with a smile, picked up the gourd on his waist and poured it.
"Elder Zhang can also grant the Inheritance Seal...... Yu Jiu didn't know anything about it, but remembered the situation when Elder Zhang opened the spatial passage to send everyone here, and suddenly realized. Elder Zhang's relationship with the undead was much deeper than what he knew.
However, Zhang Lao obviously didn't want to expand on this topic, pinned the gourd back to his waist, smiled slyly, and said, "Then let's move on to the next step!"
(If you want to know what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.) (To be continued......)
