Chapter 17: The Son of Heaven

In the depths of the altar, in addition to the statue, there are 100,000 jade cylinders, and each jade cylinder is sealed with a seal, and with Cheng Yun's cultivation, it cannot be shaken in the slightest.

"100,000 jade cylinders, 100,000 truth seekers, presumably each jade cylinder corresponds to a truth seeker. Behind the statue, 100,000 jade cylinders were closely arranged, and each jade cylinder exuded an extremely ancient vicissitudes of life.

After the 100,000 jade tubes, there was a passage, and Cheng Yun kept moving forward along this passage, but after a while, he had already come to the depths of the passage.

At the end of the passage, there is a light curtain, what is behind the light curtain, Cheng Yun can't see, and in front of the light curtain, there are ten steps, on this step, there are countless runes densely depicted, these runes, Cheng Yun feels familiar, but he feels unprecedented.

Step by step, he stepped on the steps and came to the front of the light curtain, Cheng Yun passed through this layer of light curtain and came to the world behind the light curtain.

"So fast!?" the Taoist priest in the Taoist robe reappeared, his divine sense probing the light curtain and steps again and again, but finding nothing unusual.

"The first person took a whole era, the second person took millions of years, and the third, it only took a few breaths, and the work of creation is so wonderful!" the Taoist priest sighed softly, and then his body moved, and he also entered the light curtain.

The world behind the light curtain is a narrow valley, and beyond the valley, there is endless nothingness, Cheng Yun's figure appeared in the valley, and the figure of the Taoist priest also appeared after him.

Cheng Yun's divine sense easily covered the entire valley, and he found that in the valley, he was not the only living being, in the depths of the valley, there were nearly a thousand creatures sitting cross-legged, and those creatures were human races, witch clans, and demon clans.

The valley is not big, Cheng Yun quickly approached this thousand living beings, he looked at this thousand living beings, and after a while, there was shock in his eyes.

"There are no pupils! There are no palm prints! They are all lifeless people like the Heavenly Dao Messenger!" Cheng Yun probed one creature after another, they were also walking corpses like the Truth Seeker, but they did not wander around like the Truth Seeker, but sat quietly in place.

"Heaven cries! Cry for the retrograde! Retrograde, the sky takes its luck, goes against the sky, and the sky destroys its life"

The words that sounded for the truth-seeker also reverberated in this valley, but the words in the valley spoke of the retrograde.

"Truth seeker! Retrograde! The 100,000 living beings in the previous world are all true seekers, and these thousand lifeless beings who are the same as the Heavenly Dao Messenger are retrogrades!" Cheng Yun stepped forward, and the retrograde was the same as the Truth Seeker, and he had no reaction to Cheng Yun, an outsider.

In the valley where the retrograde is located, there is also a statue, the statue is carved with a thousand retrogrades, and the retrograde shown on the statue is a man of the human race, his eyes are confused, there are no pupils in his eyes, his palms are weak, and there are no palm prints in his palms.

"Ahh

"Roar!"

"Whew!"

After a while, a thousand retrograde people roared in unison, and their roar was not because of Cheng Yun, but without warning.

When Cheng Yun heard the roar, he immediately rode into the demon ritual and came to the light curtain connected to the world where the previous truth seeker was and this valley, and once something happened, he would immediately pass through the light curtain and return to the world where the truth seeker was.

The roaring sound of the retrograde people lasted for nearly half an hour, and Cheng Yun listened carefully to their roars, and he found that the roars made by the retrograde people were all meaningless characters, as if they were having a nightmare and were talking in a dream.

"Heaven weeps! Cry for the retrograde! Retrograde, the heavens take their luck, go against the sky, and the heavens destroy their lives! Those who go against the heavens will be reincarnated for eternity, suffering all the misery, and those who are against the heavens will cover the heavens and will never recover, and the retrograde ones will not live or live, and they will not die or perish. The words about the retrograde reverberated through the valley after the retrograde's roar ceased.

In the valley where the retrograde is located, there are still jade cylinders corresponding to the number of retrogrades, a thousand jade cylinders, displayed behind the statue, and in front of the statue, there is a passage that extends downward.

Cheng Yun came to the retrograde again, he quickly entered the passage in front of the statue, and at the end of this passage, there was also a light curtain, and in front of the light curtain, there were also ten steps.

"Seekers, retrogrades, I don't know what kind of creatures will appear in the world behind this light curtain. "Cheng Yun, who is trapped in this strange place, can only have a chance to leave this place and return to the underworld by unlocking the secrets of this place.

"You are not a Dao spirit, nor are you a rebel spirit, you will be the third creature to leave this place!" The Taoist priest looked at Cheng Yun coldly, he was already ninety percent sure of the conjecture in his heart at this moment.

Cheng Yun's figure stepped into the light curtain at the end of the passage in the valley, every time he stepped on a step, the runes on the steps would flash once, but nothing else happened, ten steps later, Cheng Yun came to the light curtain, as long as he passed through this layer of light curtain, he could enter the world behind the light curtain.

"This is not the place you should be. At the moment when Cheng Yun was about to pass through the light curtain, the Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe showed his figure in front of Cheng Yun for the first time, and he stretched out his hand to stop Cheng Yun, so that Cheng Yun's body that was about to enter the light curtain was sealed.

Cheng Yun immediately moved to the entrance of the passage at the moment when the Taoist priest appeared, Cheng Yun looked at the Taoist priest vigilantly, and at the same time took out the five thunder battle suit to protect his body, he said to the Taoist priest: "Who are you?!Truth seeker, or retrograde?"

The Taoist priest seemed to be a little puzzled by what Cheng Yun said, frowning slightly, and at this time, the chanting of the retrograde person in the valley sounded again.

"Heaven cries! Cry for the retrograde! Retrograde, the sky takes its luck, goes against the sky, and the sky destroys its life"

"Seeking the truth but not being able to, going retrograde and obeying the fate! Truth-seeker, retrograde, these two titles are also appropriate! The deity is neither a truth-seeker nor a retrograde!" The Taoist priest nodded slightly, seeming to be extremely satisfied with Cheng Yun's title.

"Who are you!?" Cheng Yun asked the same question again, all Cheng Yun could do now was ask!

Although this Taoist priest did not make a move, Cheng Yun already had a faint sense of surrender and fear in the face of the Taoist priest, this feeling can only be felt by Cheng Yun when facing peak powerhouses such as the Great Sword Master and Dugu Sword.

In the face of such a powerful existence, Cheng Yun knew that any resistance had lost its effect, so it was better to simply let go.

"There are three jade cylinders here, and every time you open one, the deity will answer you a question. The Taoist priest threw out the three jade cylinders, and the three jade cylinders flashed and stopped in front of Cheng Yun.

The Taoist priest's answer was beyond Cheng Yun's expectations, in the face of the Taoist priest's answer, Cheng Yun had no choice, he was prepared for the worst, once this Taoist priest made a move on him, he would immediately break off the connection with the bloodline clone, so that the bloodline clone would become an independent individual, and would not disappear because of Cheng Yun's death, so that Cheng Yun would not be considered completely dead.

"If the deity wants to kill you, it's just a matter of thought, you don't need to be so cautious, the deity, the most annoying, is the cautious person. The Taoist priest seemed to see through Cheng Yun's thoughts, and his words, like a talisman, forced Cheng Yun to open the three jade cylinders.

took the first jade cylinder and pasted it on his forehead, Cheng Yun was calm as usual on the surface, but he kept thinking about how to deal with it in his heart.

This Taoist priest is the biggest crisis Cheng Yun has encountered in his life! The original Heavenly Steps, the siege and killing of thousands of monks in the Demon Hunting City, as well as the Thunder Tribulation Prison and the Liu Sheng of the Donglai Division, although these are great tribulations for Cheng Yun, they are only nine deaths.

"Even if he merges with the bloodline clone, he will be dead and lifeless! He is even more powerful than Liu Sheng at the beginning! I don't have a chance to surpass the existence of the Holy Soul Realm!" Cheng Yun had already made plans in a few short breaths, and he decided to open the three jade cylinders according to what the Taoist priest said.

"The first jade cylinder is a small trick in the deity's hometown, called the gravitational technique, if it is according to your realm, this should be regarded as the magic power of the Qiyuan realm. When Cheng Yun picked up the first jade cylinder, the Taoist priest said what was recorded in the jade cylinder.

Even though Cheng Yun was in a crisis, he did not panic, from the words of the Taoist priest, he knew an extremely important point, the Taoist priest is not a wild creature!

"He is not a wild creature! I don't know if he is a creature of the same world as the Truth Seeker and the Retrograde, he asked me to open the three jade cylinders, and explained to me the contents of the jade cylinders to dispel my concerns, no matter what his purpose is, but at least until I open the last jade cylinder, I am safe!" Cheng Yun's thoughts were running fast, and his divine sense had already penetrated into the jade cylinder and touched the contents of the jade cylinder.

Gravitational magic, using spiritual power to attract all things, this magic power can only be regarded as a small trick, not even a small trick, this is just a very basic skill for using spiritual power.

With just a slight glance, Cheng Yun had already realized, but he didn't take back his divine sense, he was still in the jade tube, constantly thinking about how to deal with this powerful mysterious Taoist.

"Have you learned?" After a few hours, the Taoist priest opened his mouth and asked Cheng Yun.

Cheng Yun's divine sense left the jade tube, he nodded and said, "In the jade tube, I have learned the gravitational technique recorded. ”

The Taoist priest nodded slightly, took out another crystal, and said to Cheng Yun: "In this spirit stone, there is a pair of spiritual power, you use the spiritual power in it to perform the gravitational technique, if you can't use it, you will die." ”

The Taoist priest's tone was calm, but under the calm, there was a vicious heart, he threw the spirit stone, and then his right hand moved slightly, and a branch appeared in front of him.

Cheng Yun took the spiritual stone and quickly absorbed the spiritual power in it, and when he absorbed the spiritual power, Cheng Yun noticed that this spiritual power was a little different from the spiritual power he usually absorbed, but he couldn't say what the difference was.

The Taoist priest pointed with his right hand, and the branch slowly stabbed towards Cheng Yun, although it was an ordinary branch, but with the ability of the Taoist priest, it was enough to take Cheng Yun's life.

Cheng Yun used the gravitational technique, but the spiritual power in his body did not move at all, only the trace of spiritual power absorbed from the spirit stone could be driven by him, relying on this weak spiritual power, Cheng Yun unfolded the gravitational technique, and attracted the branch that stabbed towards him.

The branch that was originally stabbing at Cheng Yun was offset by a few feet, and the Taoist priest nodded with satisfaction when he saw Cheng Yun successfully cast the gravitational technique.

"You can ask the deity the first question, the deity and you meet for the first time, although you are not qualified to know the name of the deity, but to meet the deity here, it can be regarded as you and the deity, the deity is called the Son of Heaven, you can also call the deity the deity the Heavenly Dao Deity, the deity knows that the first question you want to ask the deity is the identity of the deity, the deity has been informed, you don't have to ask again. "Peerless Dao Venerable, slowly revealed his identity.

"Peerless Heavenly Dao Venerable!, where is this!?" Cheng Yun took what the Peerless Dao Venerable said to heart and asked his first question.
