Chapter 524: The Role of Rankings

Hearing the old man's words, Li Zijun nodded slightly. As far as he knew, even if he and Bai Dewen were left behind, the number of Dongyu Saint Rank masters had risen to double digits!

"Since the Holy Rank Master can live to your age, then why?" Under the old man's reminder, Li Zijun thought of another question.

"Why is there such a small number of Holy Rank masters?"

"That's because a big event happens every one or two hundred years in the Youlan Continent!" Speaking of this, the old man's expression also became stern.

"I heard that you encountered the 'Fire Demon' when you were a child, and if this is the case, then you must not be unfamiliar with the word 'Demon Domain'!"

"Demon Domain?" Li Zijun was slightly stunned, he immediately remembered the fire demon that was destroyed by Archmage Kaye, and the evil spirit demon fetus who later died tragically in his hands, he quickly nodded to the old man.

"Whenever the people on the Youlan Continent and the Demon Domain, sometimes we also call it the 'Demon Realm', and the group of guys inside reach an agreement, and the barrier blocking the passage of the Demon Domain will loosen a little. ”

"Enchantment?" Li Zijun had never heard of this from anyone else, and he couldn't help but show an extremely curious expression.

"That's God's gift to us!"

"It is precisely because of the existence of this enchantment that we, the creatures on the Youlan Continent, are saved from becoming the targets of the demon race and being enslaved by them!"

"If the gods can create such an enchantment, why don't they block or destroy the passage?

"This question can only be asked to you yourself when you meet a god one day! On the Youlan Continent, including the so-called disciples of the Light God Sect and the Dark Moon God Sect, I don't think anyone can give you an answer to this question!"

"Then why do you know the reason why the barrier is loose?"

"It's simple. You've ever seen that barrier, and you've understood everything! There's a stone tablet in the middle of that barrier. That's a clear account of that. ”

"How long has this enchantment been in existence?"

"According to the records on the stone tablet, it should be nearly 10,000 years!"

"Nearly 10,000 years? With so many people trading with demons on the Youlan Continent, it is really not easy for him to save zài for so long!" Hearing such a number, Li Zijun couldn't help but gasp and shook his head a little happily.

"That's where the magic of the enchantment comes in!"

"Over the years, the barrier has been loose and even broken many times, but it will soon be restored to its original condition!, although I haven't found any direct evidence to prove it, but I'm sure that the barrier has a strong ability to repair itself!"

"Also. I also found that the speed of enchantment repair will also be affected by the number and strength of the demon clan! The larger the number of tongguò and the stronger the individual strength, the faster he can repair himself!"

"The enchantment relies on absorbing the energy of the demon race to repair itself?" Li Zijun's mind turned, and he immediately came up with an answer that was hard to believe.

"That's how it should be!"

"The enchantment set by the Protoss must be supported by the energy of the Demon Race?!Isn't this a little too strange?!"

"It's not just the demons! The enchantment has a kind of inclusiveness, and he won't refuse our energy either!"

"If that's the case, we'll just feed some energy into it every once in a while, so why do we have to wait until he's loose enough to stop the demons?"

"It's not as simple as you think! Previously, the Youlan Continent was at war most of the time. Under such circumstances, a Saint-Rank master, who is a symbol of the strength of various countries, even if he himself is willing to make sacrifices, his country will not lightly allow him to do so!"

"Until more than a thousand years ago. Christopher Li the Great unified the Youlan Continent, and this situation can be regarded as reversed. The Great Emperor made an agreement with the Cult of Light and the Dark Moon Cult: the Great Emperor would send twenty Saint-level masters, and the two major Divine Cults would each send ten Saint-level masters to conduct this experiment. ”

"What's the result?" Li Zijun hurriedly asked with concern.

"As a result, these forty Saint-Rank masters have all become ordinary people, ordinary people who have no power to restrain their hands!"

"Have you finally stopped the invasion of the demons?"

"Nope. But this is not to say that the sacrifices of those forty Saint Rank masters have not had any effect! on the contrary, because of the efforts of these people. It greatly strengthened the interception ability of the enchantment, and controlled the number of demons rushing through the enchantment to the greatest extent. ”

"In the past. There will always be some demons who rush out of our encirclement, causing rivers of blood to flow from the Youlan Continent, but that time, none of the demons have penetrated into the Youlan Continent, and they have all been wiped out not far from the enchantment. ”

"No matter who you are, you can't turn a blind eye to such a remarkable effect! The Emperor directly announced: This method will be retained forever!"

"Later, although the Qin Ying Empire was divided many times, the practice of gathering at least twenty Saint-rank masters has never changed. It's just that the original empire lottery has been changed to the form of apportioning the quota to each empire first, and then the lottery will be conducted!"

"Now, you understand why the number of Saint-rank masters in various countries is so small, right?!"

"I see!" Li Zijun replied and nodded to the old man.

"You mentioned this to me at this time, is it time for the enchantment to need to infuse energy inward?"

"According to my estimates, there will be three years at most, and the enchantment will usher in a new challenge!"

"So fast?" Li Zijun couldn't help but be secretly shocked in his heart.

"I see! The reason why you have not been pointing out Watt and just watching him 'blind man touch the elephant' there is to let him survive this lot!" Speaking of this, Li Zijun immediately remembered the words 'man will not be destroyed for himself'.

"We are all selfish!" the old man did not deny it, and nodded slightly to Li Zijun.

"We are all old, and it doesn't matter to us whether we live or die! But Watt is different, what he lacks now is a window, as long as someone opens this window for him, he will not only soon enter the ranks of the Holy Rank masters, but also most likely reach a higher level in a short period of time!"

"Watt is the hope for the future of our Proud Empire, and we must not let our hope be buried in that barrier. Please forgive us for our good intentions!"

"It seems that I 'did a disservice'!" Li Zijun shook his head with a wry smile.

"Senior, don't worry, I won't give Watt any more guidance and help!"

Hearing Li Zijun's assurance, the old man secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and casually took out a silk painting from his arms and handed it over:

"This is the map to the enchantment, if you are interested, you might as well check it out in advance, it is not a bad thing to prepare in advance!"

"Thank you, senior, I will definitely go!" Li Zijun took the silk painting and carefully received it in his arms.

"In addition, there are two other things that are also related to you, but I don't know if you are interested in listening to them?"

"It's related to me, then I must listen to it!" Li Zijun was already about to get up and say goodbye, but after hearing the old man's words, he immediately sat back down.

"The first thing doesn't matter, it's just a request I have for you?"

"Senior, you are too polite, if you have anything to say, just ask. I can't afford your 'request'!"

"The catastrophe in the Youlan Continent is coming, every Saint-level master will be an important weight for us to stop the invasion of the Demon Clan! If possible, I also ask you to 'forgive people and spare people', no matter what, excessive killing is not a good thing!" The old man saw Li Zijun's respectful appearance towards him, smiled and nodded, and said his 'request'.

Hearing the old man's words, Li Zijun was stunned for a moment, and then he secretly calculated in his heart, and he was surprised to find that there were as many as seven or eight saint-level masters who died directly and indirectly at his hands! This is not counting those injured people, thinking of this, Li Zijun suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

"Thank you seniors for reminding me, the kid has written it down!" Li Zijun quickly got up and bowed respectfully to the old man again.

With Belinda's unexpected death, although Li Zijun tried his best to control it, it is undeniable that the killing intent in his heart has become heavier and heavier! The last time Bradley and Jeffrey besieged Mrs. Billeg's carriage, if he hadn't been too weak at that time, he would probably have killed Bradley next to the car regardless of the consequences!

If Li Zijun can't control his feelings in time, if it continues to develop like this, he is likely to face the danger of going mad.

Although the old man's reminder seems to be unremarkable, in fact, it points directly to this gap in Li Zijun's heart, so that he has the vigilance of enlightenment and will not go too far on that dangerous road!

It was for this that Li Zijun solemnly expressed his gratitude to the old man.

Seeing that Li Zijun understood his intentions so quickly, the old man secretly praised Li Zijun's cleverness in his heart, and at the same time, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"One more thing I want to hear from you first, what do you think Thomas is doing at this time to send a war letter to Billeg?"

"It should be for the Fengqi Empire!" Li Zijun had already made up his mind about this, and he almost didn't think about it before he said the answer.

"Is there any problem?" Li Zijun couldn't help but frown when he saw the old man shaking his head.

"At least not really!"

"It's not your problem that you haven't been able to get a full picture of this, it's mainly because there's a situation you don't know!"

"There is an unwritten rule among the countries: in principle, the Saint-level masters who can rank in the top ten in the Youlan Continent will not participate in the lottery!

"Before that, Billeg and Thomas were in tenth and eleventh places, respectively!" said the old man, nodding meaningfully.

"So there's such a thing! But what does this matter have to do with me?" Li Zijun looked at the old man and asked puzzled. (To be continued......)
