Chapter 185: The Roulette of Fate
No one is born a king, and the blood that covers the earth, and the blood-colored armor that walks through the desolation and loneliness in the midst of roaring and shouting is the heroic appearance of the king.
—The power of the eight demon gods—The Ghost King
.........
"Grandpa Jun, what is a king?"
The young Mo Fan asked Jun Tianxin like this, and Jun Tianxin gently stroked Mo Fan's head and smiled
"The one who stands on the highest place and has the loneliest back, is the king"
This is Jun Tianxin's answer to Mo Fan, and to this day Mo Fan still doesn't understand what it means.
What is the most important place like Tianshu Academy? It is books, all kinds of books.
Mo Fan looked at a book of eternal records with relish, which recorded those ancient legends, such as the Yanhuang Emperor and the Demon Venerable, such as the Blue Emperor, such as the Sea God, such as the Demon Emperor, such as the Ghost Emperor.
The legends of the Qingdi are too old to have only a few words, and the most recorded ones are the Yanhuang Emperor, the Demon Emperor Fu Firmament, and the Demon Emperor Bai Chengfeng.
Of course, the holy war was set off by the Demon Emperor Fu Cangqiong, plus the Demon Emperor led the Ten Thousand Demon Palace, and the origin of the dragon vein fought in that war was shattered, so that Shenzhou entered the era of the end of the law, and there can no longer be so many supreme powerhouses, let alone the strong people who have reached the level of the emperor, which has never appeared in thousands of years.
The life of Emperor Yan and Huang is legendary, there has never been a defeat in the same generation, and he has ascended to the throne of God by the Tianjiao of the ten thousand tribes of Shenzhou, he came out of the 100,000 mountains in the depths of the forbidden land and wasteland of Shenzhou, experienced many ups and downs, experienced countless battles, and ended the division of all races together with the Demon Emperor Fu Firmament, unified the land of Shenzhou, established the Yanhuang Empire, and was regarded as the emperor by the world.
The word Yanhuang is taken from the Yanhuang Mountains, the hometown of the emperor in the 100,000 mountains.
After the establishment of the empire, the Demon Venerable and the Emperor suddenly had a disagreement, and the two started the first battle in the Lingzhou Five Realms Plain, and the battle between the two people almost leveled the entire Five Realms Plains, which was a plateau that spanned three hundred miles, and the battle between the two people was simply rewriting the map, and that battle also ended in both defeats.
Since then, the Demon Zun has summoned the Demon Clan, the Demon Clan, the Demon Clan, the Hades Clan, and other major clans to start a world war, wanting to overthrow the rule of the Yanhuang Empire, and no one knows what made the Demon Zun have the idea of wanting to single-handedly overthrow his former dream.
And it was after that battle that the ghost clan and the underworld were completely wiped out, the demon clan's holy relics were destroyed, and the clan could no longer turn into human form, and the demon clan existed in name only and then fell into the current beast clan, leaving only the body of the demon beast.
"It's really wonderful," Mo Fan closed the book, and then said to Xiao Qiyue, who had just walked in, "Can I take this book with me?"
"Take it if you like it"
Xiao Qiyue smiled and said, then he spoke, "I helped you say hello to the Great Elder, and you can use the Void Array to teleport you back to Jingzhou, but you need to bear the consumption of Celestial Crystals!"
"Understood, but I don't have so many celestial crystals" Mo Fan had a headache.
Xiao Qiyue deserves to be a sister, she reached out and touched Mo Fan's head, "No need for you, I told the Great Elder that I owe it first, and I will let Jiangnan send it over in a few days, although it will make my father very distressed, but he doesn't dare to say anything!"
"Thank you, sister" Mo Fan smiled, his heart was very warm.
Xiao Qiyue shook his head, "Little things"
Then she spoke again, "Just now, the Great Elder said, let me take you to the Sage Pavilion, the Dean wants to see you!"
"Dean of the Academy, didn't you say that he is in retreat all year round," Mo Fan was a little surprised.
Xiao Qiyue spread his hands very helplessly, "It's such a coincidence, he is out of the customs"
"Understood" Of course Mo Fan couldn't refuse, that was the dean of the academy, the pinnacle of the world.
The head of Shushan, the dean of the academy, Taixuan Tianzun, the Kunlun Daoist, in the territory of the Tianlan Empire, these four people, even if they are the emperors of the empire, they have to give face, and they must be respectful, not because of how strong they are, but because they are highly respected, they represent the façade of the Tianlan Empire in the world, as long as these four people exist, it will make the other two empires discouraged in terms of rivers and lakes, and they will definitely not dare to plot empires from the rivers and lakes.
"Xiao Fan, next time you meet the God Emperor Yulan, don't provoke him!"
Walking out of the attic, Xiao Qiyue suddenly said this, his eyes full of worry.
Mo Fan looked at his sister with some curiosity, "My sister is very familiar with him?"
"He's a monster, a veritable monster"
There was a fear in Xiao Qiyue's eyes, this was the first time Mo Fan had seen fear in Xiao Qiyue's eyes.
"I once watched him exterminate a rebellious ancient clan alive, young and old, at that time, his father was the commander, he was the deputy, but he didn't listen to his father's orders at all"
"There are more than 3,000 people, three true saint masters, and more than a dozen saint masters, who were slaughtered by him alone, his ability is very weird, not a practice or a bloodline mutation body, but he does have twelve different powers by himself, this is what my father told me, but my father never told me what his power came from!"
Saying that, Xiao Qiyue sighed, "I also asked Master, but Master also said that in the face of God Emperor Yulan, even he can't guarantee that he can win the battle."
"Isn't it okay for Wen Ruyu, the top ten in the world?" Mo Fan finally realized the strength of God Emperor Yulan.
He couldn't help but become more and more worried about Li Yin, the Eastern Emperor sent such a powerful monster to capture Li Yin, he must be afraid of encountering obstacles on the way, what secrets did Li Yin have? Why did the Eastern Emperor want to arrest him? Just because Li Yin was a bounty criminal? But it was also Guiyun's bounty, and it had nothing to do with Tianlan.
"Worried about your brother?"
Xiao Qiyue saw through Mo Fan's thoughts, and then said, "Go back to Jiangnan directly in a while, and then ask my father to help inquire about Li Yin's affairs."
"Hmm," Mo Fan replied absentmindedly.
......
In the early afternoon, south of the imperial capital.
The city of Sin towers over the sea, which connects the seas, like a giant, and its huge oval walls are intimidating, and the 50-meter-high walls are impossible to penetrate.
The Sin City is divided into five layers, and the top five layers hold the most vicious criminals in the world, each of which is a monster that once shocked the world, such as the defeat of the former five generals by the power of the imperial capital, and the rival Yuwen Tiandu fought with it for a day and a night, and finally the Monkey King Nan Wuyue, who was subdued by the emperor Murong Hua, the heir of the Heavenly Dao Palace.
At this time, on the fourth floor of Sin City, a team of soldiers escorted Li Yin into here, and the spirit locks of Sin City's characteristics were worn on his hands, and the pair of spirit locks could block all of a person's spiritual power.
"Squeak!" the door opened, and Li Yin was pushed in hard, and then the cell door was sealed.
Li Yin looked around, there was a faint candlelight inside, and a person was locked on the wall, and Li Yin's eyes suddenly revealed shock.
"Nangong Armor!!"
Yes, it was the Nangong armor that appeared in the Dragon Domain that day that was locked on the wall, but he was not seen again after leaving the Dragon Domain, and Mo Fan and the others thought that he had returned to the Nangong family.
Nangong's armor was torn, and he looked like he had experienced a battle, but his face was not so gloomy, it should have been a few days since he was arrested.
"Li Yin, how could you be arrested?" Nangong Kai frowned, "And you were imprisoned on the fourth floor, it seems that you have a big secret!"
"I, I can't say a word clearly," the sadness in Li Yin's eyes flashed.
Then he looked at Nangong Kai, "How could you be caught?"
"Hehe, I'm yin"
Nangong Kai smiled indifferently, "I have two bloodline powers in my body, which may be considered a potential threat or may be regarded as an object of study, and the samurai regiment, one of the three major combat regiments of the Military Aircraft Department, is all dispatched, how about it, is it enough to save face?"
Seeing that Nangong Kai seemed to be a little proud, Li Yin smiled, "Have face, it's the chief of the military aircraft department who arrested me, Divine Emperor Yulan!"
"What?" This time it was Nangong Kai's turn to be stunned, and he asked uncertainly, "Is it the man who is called the Emperor's Punishment?" God Emperor Yulan!"
"That's right, it's him" Li Yin was very helpless.
Nangong Kai stopped talking, and the two poor people stared at each other relatively speechlessly.
"Da!
There was a sound of metal rubbing, and God Emperor Yulan walked to the front of the prison with his hands in his hands.
"The two of you have a good conversation?"
Li Yin glanced up at the Divine Emperor Yulan, "Just to keep me here?"
"You know, why did we arrest you" said God Emperor Yulan smiled, "And you don't have to be presumptuous, the Military Aircraft Department has made a list of bloodline mutant bodies that have appeared for thousands of years, and your starry sky power is among the top ten lists, if you compare the top ten bloodline mutant bodies, the Military Aircraft Department has concluded that if the starry sky ability is awakened, it can even reach the top five in strength!"
"Li Yin, it's not up to you to decide whether you're guilty or not"
A hint of self-deprecation hung on the corner of Divine Emperor Yulan's mouth, "Only those who stand on the top of the mountain are qualified to talk, but you are not, no one will hear your voice, no one will ask anything, no one will fight for you, understand?"
"Seven days later, your death sentence will be carried out in Qinghai Jieyuan"
Li Yin didn't have any rebuttal, no expression, this is the end of his life.
Nangong Kai, who had been silent all the time looking at the back of God Emperor Yulan leaving, shouted, "Hey, the self-deprecation on the corner of your mouth and the sadness in your eyes, I can see it clearly!"
"Really?" God Emperor Yulan's body paused for a moment, and then continued to walk without looking back, "When you also stand on the top of the mountain that day, I can tell you about it, tell me the story of the abandoned clan, and you also tell me the story of being abandoned by the clan, Nangong Kai!"
Outcasts?
Nangong Kai smiled, at this moment he was full of curiosity about the Divine Emperor Yulan, this noble son who stood on the top of the mountain with absolute strength at a young age and looked down on the world, this man who sat in the second position of the Imperial Military Aircraft at a young age.
"What are you thinking, scared?" Nangong Kai said with a smile as he looked at the silent Li Yin.
Li Yin looked up at the outside of the cell, and said helplessly, "If you die quietly like this, I don't want to see myself affect anyone, let alone see a few of them come here to die!"
"What do you mean?" Nangong Kai looked at Li Yin like an idiot, "Do you think someone will come to save you?"
"Don't be stupid, no one will break into this hell on earth to save you, it will be a rescue with a 100% death rate, and it will be a stupidity to abandon the fate of a lifetime"
Li Yin was silent, he was sure but not sure, he hoped but didn't want, at this moment, his mood was complicated to an extreme.
.........
"Squeak!"
In an ordinary old book building, the clean door was pushed open.
Mo Fan walked in alone, and he looked at the place called the Sage Pavilion, which was empty, not even a book. And in front of Mo Fan sat an old man, the old man was looking at Mo Fan at the moment, with hope, gentleness, reluctance, unwillingness, and helplessness in his eyes.
"When the wheel of fate begins to turn, no one can predict which direction the needle will ultimately point"
The old man spoke, he stood up and looked at Mo Fan, "It is said that the Heavenly Machine Pavilion predicts the future generations for eight hundred years, and the two sentences of criticism are enough to affect the direction of the world."
"However, the old man never believed in fate, and the sages of the academy never believed in fate."
Mo Fan looked at the old man in the white robe, looking at his gray hair, it was hard to imagine that he was the pinnacle of the world, but in fact he was.
The top ten Wen Ruyu's master, the dean of Tianshu Academy, is a world-renowned existence, called Sanskrit Mountain.
"Junior Mo Fan, I've seen my senior!" Mo Fan bowed his head.
The old man nodded and smiled gently, "Looks like your father, but more like your mother."
"But ah, the temper seems to have inherited from your grandfather"
The old man looked at him with some appreciation, "Dare to teach the inner disciples of the academy in front of the mountain gate of the academy, and also fight with the inner disciples, you are also the first person since the establishment of the academy!"
Mo Fan scratched his head and didn't know how to talk, it turned out that everything in the academy couldn't escape the eyes of this old man, too, sometimes being unwilling to care doesn't mean that he doesn't know, what the disciples are doing, what kind of temper, he knows it clearly.
"There is a wolf in the northwest, once swallowing the dragon"
The dean muttered, and then looked at Mo Fan, "That's the case, right?"
"I don't know where it came from, and it's also because of this rumor that I, as the grandson of the Tianlan Protector, have not been allowed to enter the palace since I was a child, and I have to act as a gentleman since I was a child, doing things I don't like to do, wearing a cloak of hypocrisy, and I must make myself not the slightest threat to the royal family in order to live, because everyone, everyone looks at me with murderous intent in their eyes, and everyone wants me to die!"
Say something Mo Fan's eyes flashed with a trace of sadness: "Actually, what does the family and country affairs have to do with me? I don't care too much about the surname Xia, Huangfu, and Zhao in this world, and I never thought of making it surnamed Mo, but why can't they tolerate me? Just because of an ethereal comment?"
"Child, man's words are terrible"
The dean walked over and touched Mo Fan's head and said with a smile, "What a person said has been verified once, and it has been verified a second time, so naturally the third time will make people unconsciously believe it, and Tianji Pavilion is such an existence."
"Tianji Pavilion anticipates the development of the world, predicts that after a hundred years, it will violate the way of heaven but make the world gladly believe and accept, this is the ability of Tianji Pavilion!"
"And this rumor comes from the mouth of the contemporary pavilion master of Tianji Pavilion, naturally no one will doubt it!"
"Tianji Pavilion!" Mo Fan suddenly realized, "I see, is it Tianji Pavilion?" Only now did I know that it was originally a rumor spread by Tianji Pavilion!"
The dean shook his head helplessly, "Do you hate?" In fact, even if there is no such rumor, your fate cannot be changed, the Mo family has 300,000 iron horses, Mo Wentian, Mo Shaoqing, Mo Shaohua, the father and son are all the leaders of the world, the five tigers of the Mo family will pacify the Spring and Autumn Period, the eight commanders can fight well, and Jun Tianxin is strategizing, how can such a Mo family make an emperor not afraid?"
"Even if there is no such rumor, the civil and military officials and the royal family will no longer want to have a Heavenly Path King, a man who ignores the law and makes the hundred officials kneel down when he is on the throne with a sword!"
"So no matter what, the established fate cannot be changed, and some people are born lonely!"
Mo Fan didn't understand the dean's words, of course he didn't hate it, the dean was right, even if he didn't have this rumor, would he be able to spend his life in peace? No, his father's death was a bloody fact, and Mo Fan knew better than anyone that the darkness hovering over the empire.
"If everything is engraved on the wheel of fate, then no one can escape the moment when darkness is shrouded"
Two books with a milky white divine aura appeared in the dean's hands.
Mo Fan looked very familiar, and surprise flashed in his pupils.
"These two books are the Book of Heaven and the Book of People, the Book of Heaven was sent back to my academy by the Jade Embroidery Workshop recently, I know that the book of the earth is in your hands, the academy abandoned the book of the earth and then died in the dragon domain"
The dean looked at Mo Fan's surprised expression and once again threw out a blockbuster**: "As rumors say, the combination of the three books of heaven, earth and man is one of the ten great artifacts of ancient times, the map of all things, mountains and rivers"
"I never look into the future, nor do I look back at the past, but the biggest enemy in front of me in Tianlan Jianghu and even the entire Shenzhou is not the eight-hundred-year prophecy, but the Heavenly Gate, their purpose is already known to passers-by, the top ten artifacts!"
"But the people who sit at the top of the world never put the Heavenly Gate in their eyes, they don't know that the Heavenly Gate is no longer the weak Heavenly Gate of the year, and they don't know that Ling Wushuang is no longer the helpless and bullied young man back then, he is the unparalleled leader of the Heavenly Gate in the world, I saw everything in the projection of the human book, he just lost to the Human Emperor, he has already stepped into the Supreme, the Five Supremes have become a thing of the past."
As he spoke, the dean suddenly sighed, "Alas, it's not right, the sword immortal is dead, and there are still five supremes left in this world!"
Mo Fan's pupils were extremely shocked, Ling Wushuang, the middle-aged man in white who stepped on the river, had he become the pinnacle of the Supreme Realm?
Sure enough, the man who could command the group of monsters who attacked the Hidden Sword Villa in the first place was also a monster himself.
Mo Fan looked at this mysterious old man with great magical powers and asked respectfully, "What is the purpose of the Heavenly Gate?"
"The old man doesn't know, the old man only knows that if he can't even stop the impending disaster in front of him, what kind of salvation will he talk about, and what will he talk about the day of the 800-year prophecy!"
"Buzz!!"
The Book of Heaven, the Book of the Earth, and the Book of People in Mo Fan's Qiankun Bag, the three books were suspended in mid-air and produced great power, and they merged into one in the light to form a catalogue several meters long.
Then Mo Fan was directly sucked in, and at the same time, the dean's words sounded in Mo Fan's mind
"In the map of mountains and rivers of all things, you will experience three lifetimes, three lives, maybe the past, maybe the future, maybe the world that does not exist, but you have to remember that if you are lucky enough to meet any familiar people and things, you can't reveal your name and origin, and you can't change the cause and effect of anything!"
As soon as the words fell, Mo Fan's spiritual sense was dizzy, and then he lost all consciousness.
After everything was done, the dean stepped into the air one hundred meters in one step, and the spirit array instantly enveloped the academy, isolating everything.
Next to him appeared an old man in a black robe, who said with a cynical smile, "Are you done?"
"My academy has cultivated Haoran Qi for thousands of years, and has been admired and incense by the world, this is cause and effect, and naturally we have to use something to repay cause and effect!"
"The third life is destined to cross the three tribulations, it is really a great stroke, he will always be invincible at the same level, just like Jiang Renhuang and Mo Shaoqing!" the black-robed old man exclaimed with a smile.
The dean smiled lightly, "Since the savior predicted by the Oneiroi machine is dead, then the old man will personally create another savior, if he is born as a king, then let him be the supreme king, whether it is the eight-hundred-year prophecy, or the wolf ambition of Tianmen, it must always leave hope for future generations!"
"The old man feels it, the bell of the twilight of the times, and a few of us seem to have turned into a sunset!"
"Is it worth it? can he really do it!" the black-robed old man questioned.
The dean nodded and smiled, "There are too many things in him, I have never seen a person with death and life at the same time, I can't see through his future, and the book that can predict life and death can't be deciphered, which shows that there are many people doing something for him, wanting to kill him, wanting to save him, it's really interesting!"
"And his body and Taixuanmen, Shushan, and Tiandao Palace have great cause and effect, in this case, this cause and effect line is also counted as a part of the academy, and he has that person's breath on his body, and even half of his spirit!"
The black-robed old man was stunned for a long time, and then sighed, wanting to say something, but couldn't say it.
"Boom!!"
At this time, a muffled thunder sounded in the sky, and thunder roared.
"It's coming!"
The dean raised his hand, and an enchantment enveloped the two of them and the roaring heavenly thunder, and the outside world could not see such a scene at all, and beyond the enchantment was a clear sky.
"If you go against the sky, the realm of the sage will be crowned with three lifetimes, and you will be punished for violating the iron law of heaven!"
A majestic voice rang out, accompanied by endless thunder and lightning.
The dean smiled disdainfully, "Do you dare to shout if the door of the house has been demolished? Isn't it good to shrink in that small space?
"Hum!!" The dean raised his hand, the heavenly thunder was gone, how could a half-step supreme realm be afraid of the heavenly thunder?
And at the same time as the thunder dissipated, a golden mask face was formed in mid-air, only a huge face, nothing.
The golden mask face spoke, "You want to be the enemy of the immortals?"
"Pretending to be an immortal, the garbage that deviates from Shenzhou is also arrogant!"
The dean said with a cold face: "Back then, the emperor didn't smash that space because he gave the old man a favor, hundreds of years ago, the unsullied real people of Shushan did not cut off with a sword, and they still remember that you were once the people of Shenzhou, but you who abandoned the clan and stood on your own are not worthy of sympathy with me!"
"Boom!!"
The Golden Mask Face seemed enraged, and a golden lightning spear was thrown at the Dean.
The dean raised his right hand calmly, and the Mountains and Rivers of All Things was suspended in front of him, and in an instant, all the heavenly thunder, including the golden spear, were absorbed by the Mountains and Rivers Diagram, and then dissolved those powers.
"Swallow, give me this spiritual incarnation," the black-robed old man suddenly spoke.
Then a very small animal rushed out of the Qiankun bag, and it seemed to be an ancient fierce beast coming to the world, the small animal opened its mouth, and the golden power and those heavenly thunders were all swallowed by him little by little, and the speed was extremely fast.
"Gluttonous ......" The golden mask face was devoured by the little demon beast before he could finish speaking.
The sky cleared, and the barrier vanished.
"More and more of their power can be unleashed, I'm afraid it's time to start building new doors," the black-robed old man said with a frown.
"What are you afraid of?" the dean smiled and said indifferently, "They dare to come out of that space, there are too many people waiting to sanction them, Academy, Taixuan, Shushan, Kunlun, and even those ambitious Five Monarchs, they all want to know the secrets of Atlantis through that space!"
"Atlantis ......" The black-robed old man listened to this legendary word, and a trace of yearning and curiosity flashed in his eyes.
......
The wheel of fate will not stop, whether it is forward or backward, you can't change the only obedience, just like at this moment we don't know what Mo Fan will experience, but we must understand, even Mo Shaoqing, who is considered the savior, will not die halfway?
Fate cannot be changed, everything has cause and effect.
