Chapter 474: The Strength of the Holy Mountain
This feeling of having no body, only a helpless soul drifting, Yang Ran didn't need to experience it personally, he knew that it was extremely painful.
After more than ten years of suppressed catharsis, Zheng Yuhong laughed for a few minutes before finally stopping, Rao is a strong man in the Xinghai Realm, and his face was also flushed with laughter.
Stopping the laughter, Zheng Yuhong put away his body, he looked at Yang Ran, and said solemnly: "Thanks to you this time, if you need anything in the future, just say it, the old man will definitely do his best!"
"The dean is polite, Yang Ran had already taken all the remuneration last time, and now he asks for anything, isn't it greedy enough. Yang Ran smiled and said lightly.
A touch of appreciation drifted through Zheng Yuhong's eyes, and after the previous ecstasy, he gradually calmed down and sat back in his position.
At the same time, he motioned for Yang Ran to sit down, and then his eyes swept away, with a touch of surprise, "It seems that you have gained a lot from this trip to the imperial capital, and you have directly broken through to the peak of the Spirit Vein Realm." ”
"If you are lucky, you will get a lot of blessings in the Divine Enlightenment Space, so you can reach this situation. The imperial capital has already become a sad place, so Yang Ran doesn't want to mention it more.
Perhaps sensing the sadness hidden in Yang Ran's eyes, Zheng Yuhong didn't ask any more, he looked at Yang Ran and said, "You returned to the Meteoric Dragon Academy this time, in addition to sending this body back to the old man, there should be other things, right?"
"The dean really knows what to expect. Yang Ran smiled, then restrained his smile, and said solemnly: "Lord Dean, this time Yang Ran returned to the academy, in fact, there are two other things. ”
"Oh, let's hear it. Zheng Yuhong asked with interest.
"The first thing is that you need the permission of the dean. Yang Ran hesitated for a moment, and said in a condensed voice: "The kid wants to rush the tower again!"
"Rushing to the tower?"
Hearing this, Zheng Yuhong and Li Yufeng on the side all changed their faces.
Chong Tower, naturally is Chong Fu Tu Tian Tower. You must know that the last time he rushed to the tower, Yang Ran had already rushed directly to the seventh level that his predecessors had never reached, and now that he is rushing the tower again, then the goal must be higher, it is the eighth level, or even the top of the Futu Heavenly Tower, the ninth level?!
The eighth and ninth level of the Futu Heavenly Tower, since the founding ancestor of the Meteor Dragon Academy, no one has rushed to it!
"How sure are you?" Rao had a lot of confidence in Yang Ran, and Zheng Yuhong still asked with some concern.
"I believe the dean also knows, the kid is not averse to the golden qi in the Futu Heavenly Tower. Yang Ran pondered for a moment and said, "Therefore, even if it fails, there will be no danger to life." ”
"Yes. Nodding, Zheng Yuhong also said after pondering for a while: "Since this is the case, then you have to rush, but the top two floors of the Futu Heavenly Tower, no one has ever gone up, so you have to prepare for the worst." ”
"The kid understands. ”
Yang Ran nodded solemnly, last time in the seventh level of the Futu Heavenly Tower, he went through reincarnation to break through the endless darkness, and finally saw the phantom of the god and got the Heavenly Light Divine Order.
Therefore, he also understands that the eighth or ninth level must be more dangerous, but the more dangerous it is, it also means that the blessings in it are more attractive.
The Heavenly Light Divine Decree was already able to summon all the light in the world, and it was more powerful than any spiritual artifact, so what kind of divine object was there in the eighth and ninth levels? This was exactly what he was looking forward to.
Seeing that there was no contempt and pride in Yang Ran's eyes, Zheng Yuhong didn't say anything more and asked, "What about the second thing?"
"The second thing is to ask the dean about something. Yang Ran pondered for a moment: "I heard some tutors in the academy say that it seems that the dean has a deep understanding of the Southern Regions?"
Hearing the name Nanyu, Zheng Yuhong's face was surprised: "Yes, the old man has even been there a few times, what's the matter, you plan to go to the Southern Regions?"
Nodding, Yang Ran's face became solemn: "The kid is in a hurry, and he must go to the Southern Regions to find the Holy Witch Clan." ”
"Holy Witch Clan?" The surprise on Zheng Yuhong's face became even heavier, he pondered for a moment, and said, "If you want to enter the Holy Witch Clan, I'm afraid it will be difficult. ”
"Why?" Yang Ran's face changed and he hurriedly asked.
"This has to start with the overall situation in the Southern Regions. Zheng Yuhong knocked on the table and said slowly: "I don't know if you have heard of it, there is actually another name in the Southern Regions?"
"Beast Domain?"
"Not bad. Zheng Yuhong continued, "Actually, it can be said that the Southern Regions have gathered more than eighty percent of the demon beasts in the Yunxiao Continent, and even basically, some of the top family forces among the demon beasts are rooted in the Southern Regions. And the Holy Witch Clan only moved to the Southern Regions thousands of years ago. ”
"At the beginning, the demon beasts in the Southern Regions were naturally very repulsive to the migration of humans, but later some things happened that changed their views on the Holy Witch Clan. ”
"What's the matter?" Yang Ran couldn't help but ask.
"Demon beasts are different from humans, they rely on bloodline inheritance, that is, the closer they are to the bloodline of their own royal family, the higher the chance of becoming a strong person. This also leads to the fact that in the demon beast family, the bloodline is extremely important, and once the bloodline is mixed or even cut off, it will lead to the decline of the entire race. ”
Yang Ran nodded, he knew all this, "Does this have anything to do with the Holy Witch Clan?"
"Of course. Zheng Yuhong said categorically, "Don't forget, witchcraft can be said to be the most unpredictable spell in the world, and even in ancient times, some powerful wizards could use the power of heaven and earth to change their lives against the sky, and have a power comparable to that of gods in a short period of time." ”
"Although the Holy Witch Clan has now declined, and the mana of the wizards in it is far less than in ancient times, many of the sacred relics of the Witch Clan have been passed down. And among them, there is a holy artifact, which can be said to be enough to cause the entire demon beast race to shake. ”
"What holy relic?" Yang Ran faintly felt something.
Zheng Yuhong raised his head slightly, his lips squirmed, and he said in a deep voice.
"Pure-Blood Altar!"
Pure-blood shrines?
Hearing this name, Yang Ran frowned, he had never heard of this so-called Holy Witch Clan's holy relic at all.
Seeing his puzzled face, Zheng Yuhong explained: "In the Holy Witch Clan, there are countless holy relics that have been inherited, and this pure-blooded altar is one of the top five holy relics, and the altar preserves a drop of essence blood of the patriarchs of the Witch Clan, and as the name suggests, its function is to purify blood!"
"You also know that for demon beasts, the purity of blood is of paramount importance, so this 'pure-blooded altar' that can purify blood has a fatal temptation for them. However, this pure-blood shrine is a witch relic, so to activate it, you need a wizard with powerful magical powers. ”
"Therefore, the Holy Witch Clan is using this as a condition to ask the Demon Beast Race to provide protection for it?" Hearing this, Yang Ran finally found some eyebrows and said guessingly.
"You guessed it right. Zheng Yuhong stroked his white beard, and his expression became solemn: "A thousand years ago, the reason why the Holy Witch Clan moved to the Southern Regions was also forced to helpless, or to put it more bluntly, they were running away from an extremely powerful enemy. And on this Cloud Continent, those who are willing to shelter and dare to shelter them are only the powerful demon beast race. Especially those few families that have been inherited from ancient times, their huge power is no weaker than some of the top forces of the human race. ”
His heart trembled, and there was a trace of consternation in Yang Ran's eyes.
Although he doesn't know much about the events of a thousand years ago, he also knows through rumors how powerful the original Holy Witch Clan was, especially the Great Holy Witch with magical power, there are only a few who can compare with it in heaven and earth, and it is such a race that was forced to flee to the Southern Regions and survive under the protection of demon beasts?
What kind of force is it that has such a terrifying deterrent effect, thinking of this, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Dean Zheng, Yang Ran dares to ask, I don't know which force forced the Holy Witch Clan to move south?"
Zheng Yuhong's expression flickered for a while, but in the end, he didn't hide it, and said in a low voice: "You have also heard of this force, and due to some reasons before, there may be more entanglements in the future." ”
Hearing this, his eyes shrank suddenly, and Yang Ran said the name almost word by word, "Holy Mountain?"
Nodding his head heavily, Zheng Yuhong's expression became more and more solemn: "The power of the Holy Mountain is unimaginable, it can be said that since the disappearance of the gods, it has stood at the peak of the Yunxiao Continent, if it were not for the imprisonment of some ancestors, I am afraid that now the entire Yunxiao Continent will fall into their hands." ”
