"Three stepping realms?" Jiang Yuan muttered softly, "Ling'er, there will be three more stepping realms tomorrow." ”

"Child, there are some things that should not be rushed, you are still young, you can practice for a few years, and when your cultivation is enough, you can do it. The emperor looked at Jiang Yuan and was a little worried, he was worried that Jiang Yuan would not be able to do his best, after all, the common problem of young people is that they are young and vigorous.

"Relying on the fragments of the Yuan Wu Bead and the Yuan Spirit in my body, if I add the Heavenly Demon Sword, even if I am a cultivator of the Five Elements Realm, I can fight. Jiang Yuan said.

"Fight with the Five Elements Realm?" The emperor was a little surprised, what does the Five Elements Realm represent? That can represent the strength of the sect, you must know that the sect master of most sects is also the Five Elements Realm.

"Uncle Emperor, I have made up my mind. Jiang Yuan's voice was very firm, and he destroyed the Baqi Gate stationed in the Great Zhao State, one was to avenge Jiang Ling'er, and the other was to establish his authority, only by showing enough strength would anyone be willing to join when the Yuanwu Gate was established.

"Okay, child, I respect your choice and your ideas, and the Great Zhao Kingdom will always support you, even if the country is destroyed, it will be on your side. The emperor also said firmly.

"Hmm!" Jiang Yuan nodded, but he was quite moved in his heart, the king of a country could say this, whether it was true or not, it was worthy of Jiang Yuan's touch.

"Let's do it! Maybe I'm really old, and I don't have the hard work of you young people. The emperor said.

"Uncle Emperor, I will leave first, and the longer I stay, the more detrimental it will be to my plan. Jiang Yuan bowed and said.

"Hmm!" the emperor nodded.

Random Jiang Yuan and Wu Jue turned to leave, and the emperor looked at the two of them with some expectation, "I don't know what kind of light you will shine in the future, but I will support you." ”

The emperor muttered, but when he looked back and saw the ruins of the Jinluan Palace, he frowned, "Alas, I need to work and lose money again." ”

"Tianwu, did you hear what we said just now?" the emperor asked as he looked at Zhang Tianwu, who was standing aside.

"Your Majesty, I will definitely keep it a secret. Zhang Tianwu said, after all, he seemed to know something that he shouldn't know.

"Secrecy is for sure, but I still have things to do. The emperor looked at Zhang Tianwu, who lowered his head, and said.

"Your Majesty, please speak. Zhang Tianwu said.

"Immediately, I failed to recruit Jiang Yuan, and Jiang Yuan destroyed the Jinluan Palace. The emperor commanded.

"Yes! Your Majesty. Zhang Tianwu directly received the order, if he hadn't heard the conversation between Jiang Yuan and the emperor just now, he might really believe what the emperor said at this moment.

After Jiang Yuan and Wu Jue left the palace, they walked aimlessly on the streets, and it was already three watches at the moment.

"Young Master, where are we going now?" Wu Jue asked towards Jiang Yuan.

"We don't have a place to go yet, but after tomorrow we can find a place to go. Jiang Yuan said.

"Young master, we might as well find a tavern to stay in first. Wu Jue said.

"Hmm!" Jiang Yuan nodded, he needed to rest, because he was going to the Baqi Gate after dawn.

casually found a tavern for the two of them to live in, and Jiang Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed.

"Dragon Venerable, I need your help. Jiang Yuan said towards Long Zun.

"Okay!" Long Zun didn't postpone it, and directly agreed.

"Long Venerable, why are you so surprised to see the Heavenly Demon Sword?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"Jiang Yuan, can I tell you something?" Long Zun said suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Yuan was puzzled.

"A truth that no one in the world knows, and my identity. Long Zun said.

"The truth that no one in the world knows?" Jiang Yuan frowned, what could this be?

"About Yuan Wuzhu. "Long Zun's voice has some vicissitudes" In fact, the era of human beings is not the first era on this continent, and the era before human beings, called the era of Yuan Ling, belongs to our Yuan Ling. ”

"Yuan Ling Era?" Jiang Yuan was extremely surprised, this was the first time he had heard of this kind of thing.

"Yes, our primordial spirits are far stronger than you humans. When Long Zun said this, he was quite proud.

"Since you are really powerful, why did you later silence the ruins?" Jiang Yuan was puzzled, according to Long Zun's statement, it was not humans who ruled the Yuanwu Continent at this moment, but Yuan Ling.

"Because our primordial spirit is extinct. Long Zun's voice was a little sad, and there was also some sadness.

"Extermination? What made you extinct?" Jiang Yuan was puzzled, he didn't doubt that Long Zun said that the Yuan Spirit was stronger than humans, Long Zun's strength alone was very strong, and there was also the Vermilion Bird Yuan Spirit from the Fire County before, which could be proved.

"It's Yuan Wuzhu. Long Zun hesitated and said.

"Yuan Wuzhu?" Jiang Yuan's expression was stunned, which was a little unbelievable.

"In the era of my Yuan Ling, there were many capable people, hundreds of nine palace realms, and they were prosperous for a lifetime, but we were facing the problem of energy depletion. Long Zun recounted.

"At that time, the east was headed by the green dragon, the south was headed by the Suzaku, the west was the white tiger, the north was Xuanwu, and I was the Chinese side, and the Yuan Lings called me the Supreme. ”

"Then aren't you stronger than the other Yuan Spirits?" Jiang Yuan didn't expect that Long Zun would be the Supreme of the Yuan Spirit Era.

"I do suppress them, and I also guard the balance between the primordial spirits. Long Zun replied, with a hint of pride in his tone, because he belonged to the commander of an era.

"The growth of the Yuan Qi has led to the depletion of the Yuan Qi, and our Yuan Ling relies on the Yuan Qi to survive, without the Yuan Qi, it is equivalent to the current human beings without food. Long Zun continued.

Gradually, there was a civil war between the Yuan Spirits, because as long as one Yuan Spirit died, there would be more vitality, so the brothers turned against each other, and the situation of father and son becoming enemies abounded. "Long Zun is a little sad, it was originally a prosperous era, but it became decayed because of the vitality.

"Your civil war has brought you to your demise?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"No!" Long Zun directly denied, "The civil war is fierce, the strong will still exist, I remember that day, it was the most wrong day in our Yuan Ling era." ”

Long Zun's tone was a little remorseful.

"Seeing that the civil war is endless, I found the leaders of the Quartet and discussed together, and we found a way, which is to gather all the Yuan Wuzhu and revive the vitality. ”

"Can Yuan Wuzhu really revive the vitality?" Jiang Yuan frowned, since he was a child, his grandfather had said that the vitality was revived, and he had always thought it was just his grandfather's mantra.

"Yes, it does bring energy back, but it comes at a terrible cost. Long Zun said, there was a slight haze in his eyes, "Maybe it's also a big joke."

"Why is the Yuan Qi depleted? It is because of our Yuan Spirit, how can the Yuan Qi be revived? As long as the Yuan Spirit is all dead, won't the Yuan Qi that has been devoured be able to be revived?" Long Zun's words seemed to reveal a great secret.

"It was Yuan Wuzhu who made you perish?" Jiang Yuan's pupils shrank.

"Yes, when we gathered all the Yuan Wu Beads, we thought that all the prosperity would come with us, but we never thought that at the moment when the Yuan Wu Beads were gathered, a powerful force swept out, and the Yuan Spirits of the entire continent were turned into ashes, and the era of the Yuan Spirits came to an end. Long Zun's voice was hoarse, "And I am the biggest sinner of Yuan Ling." ”

"Then if we human beings gather all the Yuan Wuzhu, won't we also follow in your footsteps?" Jiang Yuan suddenly thought of a big question, about the life and death of human beings.

"Yes!" Long Zun nodded.

"That's not right, since all the Yuan Spirits are extinct, why do they still exist now?" Jiang Yuan wondered.

"Some of them are from the Yuan Ling era, and some of them were born later. Long Zun explained, "When Yuan Wuzhu was about to completely wipe us out, it was that knife that suddenly appeared and shattered Yuan Wuzhu with one blow, and only a part of us survived. ”

"Heavenly Demon Sword?" Jiang Yuan was extremely surprised, so said, isn't it that the Heavenly Demon Sword can be compared to Yuan Wuzhu?

"Yes, it's the knife, you don't have to ask me, I don't know anything about the knife. Long Zun said.

"Okay!"

"But for us it is a catastrophe of destruction, but for you humans, it is the beginning of a prosperous era. Long Zun suddenly changed the topic and said.

"Why?"

"Because of Yuan Wuzhu, the strong race has become weaker, and the weak race has become stronger, and you humans used to be the weakest race. Long Zun continued, "Now he has become the ruler of the continent, and many races, such as the Sky Crane, have become chickens, and the Yuan-swallowing beasts have become pigs, and so on. ”

"Is it true that chickens were cranes in the last era?" Jiang Yuan was extremely surprised, what his grandfather said when he was a child turned out to be true.

"Yes, that's how sad it is. Long Zun nodded, "And at the beginning of your human race's rise, you only had martial cultivation, and there was no cultivation at all." ”

"I know a little bit about this. Jiang Yuan nodded, after all, he had heard what Ma Qi and Elder Lu had said before.

"It's just that with the death of our Yuan Spirits and the fact that the Yuan Qi became sufficient, some human beings learned the cultivation method of the Yuan Qi with the help of our remaining Yuan Spirits, and finally had the Yuan Qi cultivation. Long Zun said.

"Isn't that Yuan Ling the master of human beings?" Jiang Yuan frowned, what Long Zun said, there is no record in the annals of human history.

"So to speak. Long Zun nodded, "However, if humans compare our Yuan Qi with our Yuan Qi, it is far from enough, because we are composed of Yuan Qi, and we know how to control Yuan Qi better." ”

"Wouldn't it be that if the Yuan Spirit and the human race fight, the human Yuan Qi will be invalid?"

"Yes, it's also a conspiracy on our part. Long Zun seemed to hesitate, but he still chose to say it.

"Conspiracy, what conspiracy?" Jiang Yuan was puzzled.

"Take back our time. Long Zun said.

"So, we should destroy you?" Jiang Yuan's face changed, according to Long Zun, humans must get rid of Yuan Ling, otherwise it will be very dangerous.

"It's just that we think too simply, your human body is infinitely mysterious, the most perfect body in this world. ”
