Chapter 13: The Hall of Shadows
"Hehe, the work is complete, this retreat is over. While walking out of the quiet room, Wu Potian answered Tu Xinggong's question.
Looking at the hall master's radiant and spring breeze on his face, Tu Xinggong was a little suspicious, and he secretly thought to himself in his heart: "This is too, when the hall lord came in, his face was pale, his brows were furrowed, and his meridians were broken, and his strength was consumed, how could it be that he only took one day and one night to heal his injuries, and his skills were greatly improved, and his demeanor was like this?" You must know that Martial King-level cultivators, if they want to improve their skills, they don't have to put in a lot of hard work, and they also have a lot of time to retreat and practice to achieve it, and he ...... this."
Of course, it is slow to write, and Tu Xinggong's inner thoughts are just a flash of thought, but when Wu Potian walked out of the quiet room and was about ten meters away from it, Tu Xinggong's face suddenly turned pale, and the spiritual power of his whole body beat wildly, and the crazy energy seemed to jump out of the body from the meridians, and there seemed to be a strong sense of tremor approaching, which made Tu Xinggong's whole body tighten, and his heart was full of fear, which couldn't help but surprise him:
"No, why the hell is that......?
Seeing the sudden change in Tu Xinggong's face, Wu Potian seemed to understand something, and immediately restrained his true yuan, so that he did not leak out at all, and his whole body breath was extremely restrained, as restrained as a child next door, without the slightest appearance of martial arts, like an ordinary person.
After doing all this, he spoke: "Elder Tuxing, you have worked hard this day and night, and the Lord of this hall will be rewarded well in the future!"
"Where, where. Tu Xinggong hurriedly said: "Protect the hall master." It's the honor of a minion. This is the way it should be. β
"All beings are equal!"
Listened to the words of Tuxinggong. Wu Potian secretly warned himself in his heart, and chuckled: "All the people of the Evil God Temple have no distinction between respect and inferiority, only the difference between positions and skills, and don't call yourself a slave in the future." β
Hearing this, Tu Xinggong was stunned for a while, and after a while, he opened his mouth and asked, "Well, Lord Hall." The old slave asked with a smile, remember half a year ago, your cultivation was still a grandmaster-level top-grade, right? In the past six months, you have made great progress, not only breaking through the Martial King level, but also cultivating to the peak of the Martial King-level lower grade, the slave should not be mistaken, right?"
"Well, it should be like this, what do you mean by asking?" Wu Potian couldn't help but ask a little puzzled when he heard this.
Because, as a subordinate. It is very taboo to casually inquire about the cultivation of superiors, and it is not allowed. Not only the upper and lower levels, but also the general martial arts cultivation, inquiring about the realm of other people's cultivation is a forbidden thing, this is the iron law of martial arts cultivators, with the sophistication of the earth, should not understand this convention and customary regulations, right?
"Please forgive the hall master, the old slave knows that it is very taboo to ask about other people's cultivation at will, but when the hall master approached the old slave just now, the old slave had a strong sense of fear, and the true yuan in his body was in a crazy riot, so he asked this question and wanted to confirm his guess. Tu Xinggong carefully explained.
As the peak of the martial king-level top-grade Tuxinggong, he has been stepping along the ground for hundreds of years on the threshold of the martial king-level, and finally cultivated to the peak of the martial king-level top-grade, as a martial artist, he is proud and has proud capital, but he is so frightened that he can't even raise his head in front of Wu Potian, the quasi-hall master, this situation makes him very surprised, and he is secretly happy.
Originally, deep down, he still despised this quasi-hall master a little, but now he has completely let go of his contempt, from now on, he will definitely think about Wu Potian wholeheartedly, for the sake of the Evil God Temple, loyal and never give up!
Flashing a pair of scarlet black eyes, he said softly: "Oh, Elder Tuxing has this feeling?" Well, maybe, when the two of us met in Sin City, the master of this hall was still in the realm of the Grandmaster Realm, and now he has crossed the Martial King level, standing on the edge of the middle grade of the Martial King level with one foot, and the momentum will continue to increase as the realm increases, as a Martial King-level powerhouse, your feelings are quite keen, and it is normal to have this feeling, so you don't have to take it to heart. After Wu Potian understood this situation, Wen Yan was relieved that Tu Xing was fair.
Listening to Wu Potian's words, Tu Xinggong trembled a little with excitement, he forcibly endured the excitement in his heart, organized his words, and then spoke: "Lord of the Palace, the speed of your cultivation is the crown of the whole continent, which makes the old slave extremely happy, and it is also the blessing of my Evil God Temple, from now on, the old slave will follow the Lord of the Hall all his life, bow to the end, and die!"
"Okay, okay!" Listening to Tu Xinggong's words, Wu Potian applauded loudly again and again, and then his tone changed, his face became cold and solemn, and he said in an ice voice: "Tu Xinggong, before coming to your tomb earth hall yesterday, the lord of this hall had already gone to the elders' house and found some bad things there. β
"What?!, Lord of the Hall, have you been to the House of Elders?"
Tu Xinggong asked in surprise, his expression panicked, as if the Evil God Hall Elder's Courtyard was a Longtan Tiger's Den.
"Yes, you heard it right, it's the House of Elders, and I also saw the scum of the two evil god halls of the current Hall Master Zheng Dynasty and the Hall Master Zheng Shao. Wu Potian responded in a cold voice, and there seemed to be a crazy killing intent in his tone.
Tu Xinggong said in a trembling voice: "Lord of the Hall, you can't go to the House of Elders at will in the future, the current House of Elders is extremely evil, it is tantamount to the Longtan Tiger's Den, the masters in it are like clouds, all of them are the cronies and friends of the Hall Lord of the Zheng Dynasty, it is too dangerous for you to go to that place." β
Feeling the panic and fear in Tu Xinggong's heart, Wu Potian suddenly became dissatisfied, and his dark eyes instantly turned scarlet, red as blood, staring at Tu Xinggong, and asked coldly: "What's wrong, are you afraid?"
Facing the interrogation of the hall master, Tu Xinggong seemed to be aware of it, and felt that he was too cowardly, so he forcibly explained: "Lord of the hall, it's not that the old slave is afraid, but the old slave is afraid that something will happen to you in the Elders' House. I have to guard against it!"
"Martial Emperor level?what's your name?!"
"Immortal Demon Emperor!"
Listened to this. A trace of killing intent flashed through Wu Potian's heart. Snorted coldly and said, "Immortal Demon Emperor, hmph, one day, the hall master will see if he is really immortal or fake immortal!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he stared coldly at Tu Xinggong and asked, "Why is he called the Immortal Demon Emperor, is there something wrong with him? Could it be that he has a few more lives than others?"
"It's not that he really doesn't die, it's that he cultivates the Dafa of clones, and most of the time, he doesn't need his real body to fight with people. Instead, he replaced it with a clone, and the more dangerous the battle, the more he would be like this, therefore, over time, his immortal name spread, he used to be an undead demon lord, and about a hundred years ago, he cultivated to the level of a martial emperor, so he was naturally called an immortal demon emperor. β
Hear the words "doppelganger Dafa". Wu Potian couldn't help but feel hot in his eyes, because. He's also a monster with a doppelganger Dafa, but he doesn't know how the Immortal Demon Emperor's doppelganger Dafa is different from the main hall master's doppelganger Dafa?
He was secretly thinking in his heart, but he asked: "No, there is no content of the doppelganger Dafa in the general acceptance of the 'Evil God Phantom Star Technique', and the generation of hall masters back then also did not practice the doppelganger Dafa, could it be ......?"
Tu Xinggong nodded again and again: "It is true that there is no doppelganger Dafa in this hall, but this Immortal Demon Emperor is not from my Evil God Temple, he joined halfway, and when he came, he was already a middle-grade martial king, so far, it should be more than two thousand years, it should be less than three thousand years." There are many high-level martial cultivators like him who have joined halfway, and they have all made great contributions to my Evil God Temple, especially this Immortal Demon Emperor, who is resourceful, treacherous, and scheming, and the only deficiency is that he has too much desire for power. β
Hearing this, Wu Potian nodded, "According to what you say, the hall master of the Zheng Dynasty is only a puppet, and the person who is really in power should be the Immortal Demon Emperor, then there should be more than one Demon Emperor in the Elders' House, and there are some other Martial Emperors, Martial Emperor-level masters, don't they just care, let the two masters and apprentices do whatever they want?"
Tu Xinggong replied helplessly: "Lord of the hall, high-level martial cultivators, the desire for power is very indifferent, the general time is in retreat, a retreat is decades or hundreds of years, where is there leisure to take care of their affairs? The opportunity of the word, as long as it kills you, the fantasy may become a reality, therefore, your appearance is full of variables and killing opportunities, such a good opportunity, how can the Immortal Demon Emperor waste it?"
Hearing this, Wu Potian was shocked in his heart, "That's true, no wonder Tuxing Gong is so panicked about going to the Elders' House in this hall, it seems that this king was alert that day, if not, it is really possible to be buried in the Elders' House now." β
Thinking of this, his heart became more cautious about this trip to the Evil God Temple, after all, be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, why should the lord of this hall seek death if he can not die? This king is only eighteen years old, and a good future and all kinds of possibilities will be displayed in front of my eyes, death, this word is still too far away from this king, it is absolutely impossible to die!
Through this conversation with Tu Xinggong, Wu Potian probably understood the current situation and power distribution of the Evil God Temple, and he was considering his own advantages and disadvantages in his heart, as for the evil and betrayal of the Elders' House, he did not take into account, he came this time to take back the power of the hall master, this iron must not change, as for the person who blocks the way forward, only death, there is no doubt.
Therefore, in his heart, the Hall Master of the Zheng Dynasty, the Hall Master of the Zheng Dynasty, the Hall Master of the Zheng Dynasty, the Immortal Demon Emperor is already a dead person, what else does the person who must die need to consider?
Although this statement is rather crazy, it is necessary, even if he tries to do everything possible, he must also achieve this goal, therefore, in order to achieve this goal, even if he kills the Evil God Temple, he must complete the only trust of the Evil God Lord.
If you are a man, you must keep your word and do what you say!
After strengthening his belief, Wu Potian stared at Tu Xinggong for a while, and then asked in a firm voice: "Tell me, where is the residence of the Shadow Palace, now, the main hall is going to the Shadow Palace, besides, how did I do the things I told you before?"
"Hall Master, are you sure you want to go to the Shadow Palace?!"
Tu Xinggong was extremely surprised and looked at Wu Potian's tender face and scarlet pupils, and he couldn't believe it, this hall master. Don't look at his age. but his courage is greater than the sky. What is the Shadow Temple?
That's a place where even Tu Xinggong can't touch the edge, the entire Evil God Temple, only the Shadow Hall is extremely mysterious, it is a place where the direct subordinates of a generation of hall masters live, and the direct generation of hall masters personally governs it, the means are iron-blooded, the gods are elusive, and the masters who kill people without blinking an eye all come out of here.
Right now. This young hall master actually said that he wanted to go to the Shadow Hall to have a look, isn't this the old birthday star hanging himself - looking for death?
It's a big deal, it's really big now!
Wu Potian saw Tu Xinggong looking at his face like a nerd, and thought that his face had flowers, where did he know that his heart had turned so many twists and turns, he couldn't help but look at Tu Xinggong with amusement, came to him, patted his shoulder with his white and tender jade hand, and asked playfully:
"What's the matter, a shadow temple. It really scared the Tuxing Gong who was at the peak of the martial king-level level stupid, it couldn't be, right?!"
"Your Excellency. This... This... This ......"
"Don't do this, first of all, you tell me how the things entrusted to you are doing, and then how are the things in the Shadow Palace?" Wu Potian urged.
"Last time, the things you gave to the old slave were basically done, and the old slave was more sure of the Blood Demon Hall and the Ruoshui Palace, and others such as the Pure Gold Hall and the Shenmu Hall were not very sure, but they also took the exercises and were practicing, and now they have all corrected the exercises, and the defects of the previous exercises no longer exist.
And the exercises of the Shadow Hall are self-contained, they are the complete exercises handed down by the old hall master, and the "Evil God Phantom Star Technique" has nothing to do with them, but the key to the success of things is in the Shadow Palace. β
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Tu Xinggong continued: "However, the Shadow Hall is more dangerous than the Elders' House, if the Elders' House is a master and extremely dangerous, then, the Shadow Hall is a Jedi, those who go will definitely die, and even the bones cannot be found after death, the old slave advises the hall master to stay in the tomb hall, if there is anything to tell the old slave to do, it is best not to ...... lightly in that place in the Shadow Palace."
"Tu Xinggong, the danger is not dangerous, you don't have to worry about this, as long as you tell the main hall where the shadow hall is, I am only eighteen years old, and I am far from living enough, do you want to die?" Feeling Tu Xinggong's concern for himself, Wu Potian couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart, and changed his cold tone before, he said softly to this white-bearded and white-haired old man.
Listening to his words, Tu Xinggong did not change his mind, but it was not easy to persuade again, so he just said to himself: " The so-called shadow, is the shadow, is a group of shadows live in the place, a combination of an organization, is a generation of hall master of the killing sword, this shadow hall everyone is in the potential of the killer, some masters, even standing in front of you you can not see, even if you see it, you don't know that he is a killer, the shadow hall is named because of this, where they are, this king does not know, only knows that there is an extremely strange place in the temple of evil gods, as long as people go there, they will lose their way, and they can never find it back, in fact, as long as they go there, no one has ever returned, I don't know if it is a shadow templeοΌβ
"Oh, is there such a place in this evil god temple?" After listening to Tu Xinggong's words, Wu Potian immediately became interested and immediately asked curiously.
"Yes, this place is very mysterious, the old slave has been in the evil god for more than a thousand years, and he has never been there, and he does not dare to go there. Speaking of this, Tu Xinggong's baby-like old and tender face finally flashed with a hint of shame, I don't know if it was because he was too small and shy, or because of what.
"Okay, this is it, tell me, where is this place?" Wu Potian asked impatiently.
"There is a strange place in the Evil God Temple, there is an extremely strange sign, once you pass that sign, strange things will happen, therefore, there is no figure to be found there for many years, it is very desolate and bleak, as long as you walk over, you will know. Speaking of which, Tu Xinggong seemed to be very tired, perhaps, because he couldn't persuade the hall master, and he felt panicked in his heart, this was tiredness, not a reaction to physical fatigue.
"What's that sign?"
"It is a strange monster sculpture, standing in a desolate place, bounded by green outside, desolate inside, where there are no houses, no trees, only desolation and desolation. β
"You take care of Liuhe here, after he wakes up, let him stabilize the realm more, don't run around, other things, wait until the hall master comes back, I'll go, you don't have to worry, I'll be fine." As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Potian's figure began to fade gradually, and finally faded completely, it turned out that his person was no longer in the tomb hall.
Looking at the fading figure, Tu Xinggong had an indescribable horror in his heart, this hall master is too elusive, when he talked to me just now, he was clearly still by the old slave's side, at that time, the vitality of heaven and earth here did not change at all, when did he break the space and escape from the space channel, why didn't the old slave feel it at all?
Demon, this second-generation hall master must be a demon! The previous generation of hall masters is like this, this generation of hall masters is even more powerful, will my evil god temple go to another peak under his leadership?
Shocked for a while, Tu Xinggong stood in the tomb hall, and couldn't stop sighing, as a martial king-level master, he was really a little embarrassed today. (To be continued.) )
