Chapter 394: The Mysterious Disappearing Chill
The next day, the Wang brothers came to visit, saying that they were ordered by Xun Chi to let Yin Tiancheng and Nangong Yan go to Hope Valley as special guests to visit the sacrificial ceremony.
The name Hope Valley sounds very beautiful, but after entering, Yin Tiancheng not only failed to feel the slightest vitality, but on the contrary, he found that it was a place full of gloomy energy.
During the walk, there is only one kind of scenery that can be seen everywhere on both sides of the road, and that is the tomb.
These continuous, undulating mounds, eroded by the years, eroded by wind and rain, desolate like the remains of a giant beast, scattered in every corner of the valley.
Perhaps because of today's sacrificial ceremony, each tomb has been carefully cared for, the weeds have been removed, and the tomb is full of flowers.
"Are the villagers doing ancestor worship?"
The scene in front of her was completely unexpected by Nangong Yan, she was a little uneasy, and she was shocked by this gloomy and solemn atmosphere.
"It seems like yes. Yin Tiancheng nodded uncertainly and continued to observe everything around him.
Due to the successive incursions of unknown reasons in the shelter in the past few days, the security in the valley has been strengthened, and many young and strong villagers have spontaneously taken on patrol duties.
Most of them were armed with weapons, and a few of them were holding low-quality magic weapons, looking in all directions and listening to all directions, which invisibly made the atmosphere of the scene a little tense.
For some reason, Yin Tiancheng always had a feeling of uneasiness after entering the valley, as if there was something hidden in the valley that made him uneasy.
Everything in front of him revealed strangeness everywhere, which made Yin Tiancheng feel that something was wrong, and even had a premonition that what happened next would be related to him.
Just when Yin Tiancheng was secretly speculating, he felt Nangong Yan pull his sleeve.
Yin Tiancheng paused, turned around and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Nangong Yan wanted to speak and stopped, Yin Tiancheng thought she was tired of walking, so he said, "I'll help you go." β
Nangong Yan hurriedly shook her hand, and then pointed forward, but she couldn't say a word, with a look of surprise and fear in her eyes.
Yin Tiancheng looked back and found that the road was almost at the end, and in front of him was a majestic palace, standing steeply and straight, shining in the sunlight.
Taking a closer look, Yin Tiancheng immediately understood the reason for Nangong Yan's discomfort, it was simply a building that should not exist in the world.
The surface of the palace was made up of stones of various sizes, none of which were square bricks, all of them were strange stones, and a few of them were geometric shapes that no one could have imagined.
This makes the palace as a whole look oppressive, even indescribably lonely.
Yin Tiancheng wondered, according to the architectural ability of human beings, no one could build a palace with these strange-shaped stones, but now they were perfectly integrated and presented in his eyes.
However, Yin Tiancheng was immediately relieved, with Xun Chi's help, the villagers here could naturally create amazing miracles.
At this time, Wang Da turned around and said to them: "You don't need to panic, this is the ancestral hall where we worship our ancestors, and it enshrines the holy relics left by King Yi. β
"Ancestral Hall?" Nangong Yan said in surprise: "Although it is very magnificent, it is also too ......."
She couldn't go on, for fear that revealing her true thoughts would make the other party feel rude.
Wang Da saw her thoughts and said, "Actually, everyone also wants to build a traditional style ancestral hall, but there is no way, because this is Dijiang's order." β
"Ah, how can this matter have anything to do with the Emperor? He and Hou Yi should have a hostile relationship!"
Wang Da smiled, and immediately explained the ins and outs of this palace.
Hou Yi was worried that he would lose the war, so he established this shelter in advance, so that he could retreat after the defeat, lead the rebels into the shelter to recuperate, and when his vitality recovers, he will rise again and challenge the authority of the gods again.
Only a few people knew about this secret plan, but there was a traitor among them, and he was Hanyu.
Han Yu is Hou Yi's beloved apprentice, and when he does not reveal his evil face, he is known as the bravest warrior in the world, and he is second only to Hou Yi in the eyes of everyone.
On the one hand, he has the strength of a genius, slaying demons and fighting the gods without flinching, and on the other hand, he treats the weak equally, helping them out of trouble as much as possible.
Therefore, everyone regarded him as the successor of Hou Yi's will, and the best candidate for the next poor king.
But such a person who was pinned on by everyone, when the evil nature of his heart was revealed, he secretly took refuge in the Protoss.
After making a shameful pact with the gods, Hanjo betrayed the rebels completely.
Next, it is the well-known story of Chang'e running to the moon, Hou Yi, who lost his wife, was heartbroken, and in the face of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Han Yu took advantage of Hou Yi's unpreparedness and cast a cold arrow from behind him to kill his master.
But this traitor did not succeed after committing a heinous evil deed, and when he took this "merit" to the Protoss to ask for merit and reward, the three conditions promised by the gods at the beginning were only fulfilled in the end.
Hearing this, Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but ask, "What conditions did Han Xuan propose to the gods?"
The first is that he is going to live forever like God. β
"It's easy to do, and it seems that this is the condition that the gods fulfill. β
"Yes, how can this dog thief be a traitor if he is not afraid of death. β
"What are the other two conditions, so that the gods can't satisfy his desires even if they break their promises?"
"Han Xuan's second request is to marry Chang'e. β
"It's so shameless!" Nangong Yan couldn't help but scold: "Kill someone else's husband, and want to occupy his wife! If God agrees, then what heavenly reason is there in the world!"
Wang Da Leng said: "Hmph, Tianli is a trick used to fool the world and eradicate dissidents, so the gods and dogs will not take it seriously." β
"Could it be because Hou Yi died, and Empress Chang'e who ran to the moon also became a member of the Protoss, so the gods couldn't force her to remarry the enemy?"
"You think of the divine dogs too kindly, the divine dogs have a strict hierarchy inside, and the lowest immortals have no power to resist at all. Otherwise, you will be given a big hat for disobeying the mandate of heaven and will be severely punished. β
"What are the reasons why the gods refused Han's request?"
"That's because they can't ask Chang'e to do anything at all! Because the Guanghan Palace where she lives has the same lofty status as Kunlun!"
Nangong Yan was surprised, and even thought that Wang Da was talking exaggeratedly.
"It's normal for you two to feel strange about this, because you don't know that the moon you see at night is just a faΓ§ade, but in fact it is a door, and behind the door it leads to another world. β
"What? There's another world in the moon?"
"That's right, its name is Mirror Flower Water Moon, Guanghan Palace is located in it, and the owner of that mysterious palace is Chang'e!"
"It's incredible, Chang'e was a god in her previous life!"
"No, Chang'e was a human being like us before she went to the moon, and she became a god after entering the mirror and became the master of Guanghan Palace. β
Yin Tiancheng was silent, remembering the legends that Lu Wu had said to himself about the mirror flowers and water moons.
According to the Protoss, the Mirror Flower Water Moon is a different world created by the great god Nuwa when the heavens and the earth first opened, and it is a special existence independent of the Three Realms.
Miraculously, the masters of the Guanghan Palace in the past generations were able to automatically gain great strength without cultivating like other gods.
The reason for this is that he has a special ability that is the envy of all beings: when he becomes the palace master, he can inherit the divine power left by Nuwa from the previous one.
Once this divine power is unleashed, it will be the peerless school of the Guanghan Palace that makes the God Emperors even fearful: Hanmu Chunhua!
Destroy the world, indestructible, no one in the world can stop it!
A long, long time ago, the first lord of the Guanghan Palace, Wangshu and Di Jun, reached an agreement to make Jinghua Shuiyue a forbidden area of life that was even more mysterious than Kunlun.
The beings of the Three Realms, no matter who they are, cannot enter the mirror without permission, otherwise their lives will be lost, and their bodies and souls will be destroyed.
Even if it is a god, trespassing on the mirror is the same fate: kill or kill!
And the reason why Di Jun gave the Guanghan Palace supreme power was because he, like the previous masters of the Guanghan Palace, knew the ultimate secret hidden in the mirror.
But what this secret is, the insider has never revealed the slightest bit of it, and it has left endless reverie for the Three Realms.
It's easy to understand why the gods broke their word on Han, because they simply didn't have the authority to order Chang'e to do anything.
Yin Tiancheng immediately put away his messy thoughts and asked about the specific content of the third request.
"He is to be the lord of the earth and the supreme ruler of all mankind. When Wang Da said this, he spat on the ground.
Yin Tiancheng sneered and said sneeringly: "Such a big ambition, how could the gods agree to this request of his!"
Wang Da said unexpectedly: "The divine dogs don't want to find a dog leg to manage the world for them, but unfortunately they don't have this ability." β
"Hou Yi is dead, Han is betrayed, the rebels are leaderless, and there is no force in the world to compete with the gods, why can't the gods meet Han's requirements?"
"As long as the Houtu still exists for a day, who of the gods and dogs will dare to nod their heads?"
Wang Da further explained: "At the beginning of Emperor Jun'er's succession to the throne, he divided the territory of the Three Realms completely, and it was according to the agreement that Houtu became the de facto master of the human world and the underworld. Now the gods want to get their hands on her territory, do you think the old woman can agree?"
Yin Tiancheng nodded yes, although Houtu has long been left untouched by the world, but whoever wants to change hands on this power, she will definitely not agree.
Early on, the earth was angry with the gods because of the death of her son, cutting off the passage between the yin and yang worlds, and if the gods sinned against her again, it would inevitably cause more trouble.
So it was only natural that the gods did not keep their promises, but in order to comfort Han, the gods and emperors supported him to become the king of a poor country.
The cold rush can be said to be a big loss, but even if he has more complaints in his heart, he can only stop there.
With the gods behind him, Han Ha changed his previous hypocritical face and implemented tyrannical rule in the country, mercilessly suppressing any forces that opposed him.
At that time, most of the remaining rebels fled to hide around the world, and the remnants of the poor country, led by Taifeng, Wuluo and Xunchi, entered the shelter to escape the pursuit of the gods and the cold.
But then Taifeng and the other gods were frustrated to find that with their power, they could not activate the protective barrier left behind by Hou Yi.
In fact, it's no wonder that they didn't know the true face of the cold at the beginning, and he had always cultivated this traitor as a successor, and in order to prevent the enchantment from being used by the gangsters, he laid a spell with a strong forbidden power in advance.
And the person who can break the curse and open the enchantment, except for him, is only Hanyu.
Hou Yi's mistake has caused a major crisis for everyone, if the barrier cannot be opened as soon as possible, Han Yu will lead a large army to chase and kill, and wipe out the remaining rebels.
At the critical moment, the emperor *** was in the rebel army, and brought those strange-shaped stones that Yin Tiancheng saw before.
The Emperor told everyone that if they could build a palace to enshrine the holy relics left by Hou Yi without damaging the stones, the spell would be automatically broken, and the barrier would be opened to protect everyone's safety.
Taifeng and the other gods are skeptical about this, but they have no more choice when it comes to life and death, they can only try according to what Di Jiang said.
But everyone was busy for three days and three nights, and they only barely put together the foundation, and it was almost impossible to build a magnificent palace with these stones.
Fortunately, there are many gods in the team, they have higher intelligence than humans, and during the three busy days of human beings, Taifeng worked out the correct construction method behind closed doors with the gods, and drew it into a blueprint for everyone to construct.
Later, Taifeng and other gods used their divine power to build this palace with everyone, and placed Houyi's holy relics inside.
When Han Xuan eradicated the dissidents in the country and led the army to kill, he could only watch in amazement as the enchantment was formed, and then the shelter disappeared into his eyes.
From then on, although the shelter still existed in the Dongyi Continent, outsiders could no longer find out its exact location, so Han Hao had to take his army back to the poor country.
Hearing this, Yin Tiancheng couldn't help asking: "Senior Wang, according to this, there are tyrants from poor countries now, or is it cold?"
"It's not him anymore, and now we don't know who oppressed the people there. Wang Da hehe sneered and said, "As for that dog thing, I'm afraid it will have been punished and sunk to hell a long time ago." β
"Is he not a god, how can he die?" Yin Tiancheng exclaimed, wondering if the cold was dying in that mysterious plague.
"Hell, after this dog thief became king, he was betrayed and separated, and for a long time, assassins infiltrated the palace to carry out assassinations, making him restless and sleepless at night. β
Wang scolded and told Yin Tiancheng that on the way back from a hunting trip, Han Yu found a cloud of fog in front of him, and his men could not dispel it with all their strength.
Enraged, Han Hao personally went into the fog to check what was going on, but the result was that it was gone, disappearing along with the thick fog.
Since then, this traitor has never been seen again, and no one knows his whereabouts.
Yin Tiancheng sighed when he heard it, but he didn't expect that this would be the final end of the cold rush, and he didn't know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate for the world.
