Chapter 41: Twin Treasures
"It's hard to imagine what kind of treasure fell from the sky that can lead to three Yuanying True Ancestors at the same time. Qiao Mei was in a trance, and her tone was full of disbelief.
For the Yuanying True Ancestor, ordinary magic weapons and magic weapons can no longer meet their needs. If it weren't for its extremely strong effect, even if it was a treasure from the sky, it would never have caused the three Yuanying True Ancestors to compete.
"How do you feel the breath of a strange treasure falling from the sky?How do you know the strange treasure falling from the sky?How many secrets do you still hide?" When she came back to her senses, Qiao Mei's beautiful eyes suddenly condensed, and she suddenly turned to Qiao Yu, her eyes full of doubt.
When everyone heard this, they also turned their senses with doubts on their faces, and locked their eyes on Qiao Yu. Even Qiao Yunqing, who had been silent, couldn't help but feel a little dazed when she looked at her son for a while.
"It doesn't matter, the most important thing at this time is to go back quickly, I always have a bad premonition. In the face of everyone's doubts, Qiao Yu said indifferently.
Immediately afterwards, everyone quickly rushed towards Yunxi City, and when they returned to Qiaojia City, it was already half a day later. However, what awaits them is not the imagined scene of lanterns and red banquets.
Originally, it spanned half of Yunxi City, crossed the city wall, and connected to the huge Qiaojia City ten miles outside the city. At this moment, only ruins remained. What caught everyone's eyes was the tragic scene of wolf smoke scattering, beacon fire like a sea, and tragic songs in the sky.
"How could this be, what happened?" Qiao Yunqing looked at the tragic situation in front of him, his weak posture and let out a slight tremble.
Among the ruins, there were some members of the Qiao family, running back and forth, seemingly busy taking care of the injured. However, there were many wounded, and all of them were seriously injured and dying. The entire Qiaojia City almost fell into a dead silence. It is unimaginable that the Qiao family, who was still preparing to celebrate the feast and welcome the triennial, rare moment of joy, actually fell with bad news, so that this happened.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Qiao Yu's eyes froze, and then his spiritual power was dark, and he quickly rushed into the ruins. With the scene in my memory, I trampled through piles of rubble, jumped over clusters of fire, and finally, came to a house.
Originally, this was supposed to be the mansion of Qiao Yu's family. However, by this time, the entire wall had collapsed, and almost half of the entire courtyard had been completely destroyed, and the other half of the houses were only broken bricks and tiles.
The figures of his father and sister kept flashing in his mind, and Qiao Yu didn't think much about it for a while, but rushed into the ruins and began to search frantically. With a sweep of his sleeves, a strong wind carrying spiritual power blew, setting off a small piece of ruins, and then Qiao Yu immediately began to investigate.
Occasionally, when encountering all heavy objects, Qiao Yu only gently moved them away with his hands, for fear of using spiritual power and causing his father or sister in the ruins to be injured. In the end, however, he searched through the ruins of the entire mansion, but he did not see anyone.
If you are not at home, you should have escaped the catastrophe, Qiao Yu prayed in her heart. At this moment, his mind is full of blankness, and the sudden disaster in front of him has too great a mental impact on him.
At this moment, a figure in a red dress quickly rushed in from the outside, and after seeing the blue-clothed young man in the ruins, his pretty face was full of anxiety and shouted: "Brother Xiaoyu, you are finally back, there is an accident in the clan, and the uncle is also ......" In the middle of his words, he was interrupted by the young man suddenly turning around, with an indifferent look on his face.
"My father, he's still alive, isn't he? Qiao Yu looked at Qiao Hua coldly, although he was asking, his tone did not fluctuate at all.
Looking at this pair of cold pupils, Qiao Hua was a little speechless for a while. She had never seen the former look so on, and that cold face made him feel very frightened. His head lowered slightly, and he was silent for a moment before he sobbed, "You better come with me and have a look." ”
On the periphery of Qiaojia City, the city pass behind the Treasure Pavilion. Originally, this was a forbidden place, and there were usually dozens of clansmen who strictly guarded the city here. However, at this moment, it has also been reduced to ruins along with the Treasure Pavilion. The entire city wall was torn and shattered.
When Qiao Yu arrived here with Qiao Hua, what he saw was the scene he didn't want to see. I saw that next to the ruins, corpses were all over the ground, and next to one of the middle-aged corpses, Qiao Yunqing knelt on the ground, holding the corpse's hand tightly and sobbing in a low voice.
In the crowd, seeing Qiao Yu coming, a man in white walked forward in a depressed mood among the crowd that had been guarding here. This young master of the Qiao family, who is usually personable, is covered in scars, bloodstains, and extreme embarrassment at the moment.
"What the hell is going on?" Seeing Qiao Teng coming, Qiao Yu's somewhat hoarse voice came out of his throat.
"Half a day ago, there were three Yuanying True Ancestors, and a fierce battle started about ten miles away from here. And when they were fighting, the terrifying spiritual power fluctuations that were stirred up spread in all directions, approaching Yunxi City. At that time, my father led all the Zhuji real people in the clan to Dongcheng Pass to defend, and everyone personally operated the Great Array of Guardian City to resist the invasion of spiritual power fluctuations......"
Qiao Teng was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and continued in a deep voice: "Those three Yuan Infant True Ancestors, one of them is called the Demon Corpse True Ancestor, and they are fighting with their lives. That earth-shattering battle was really rare in the world, and the spiritual wave impact caused by it could easily break through our Qiao family's city protection array. At that time, the father and the elders who were in charge of the Formation Eye, as well as all the real people who built the foundation, were all seriously injured. In the end, not long after, he was too seriously injured and ......"
At this point, Qiao Teng's voice finally froze. At that time, he also participated in this guard battle. Because he was a sword cultivator, and he was wearing a defensive magic weapon, coupled with Qiao Yuan's timely maintenance, he was lucky to pick up a life. Now thinking of the tragic situation at that time, he still has lingering palpitations.
After listening to Qiao Teng's explanation, Qiao Yu pondered for a moment, and actually laughed out loud, and the laughter was full of bitterness. The ruddy eyes were then closed, but in my mind, I was reminded of the scenes of my home after I came to the world.
In the picture of memories, the family's affectionate care and concern for themselves are vivid. Even if the situation at home is not good, the family can still laugh and have a good time sitting together. And he is also working hard for the so-called beautiful future.
However, in the end, it was a bad news from heaven. This bad news came so suddenly, and it quickly took away everything in the past. made Qiao Yu feel ridiculous in his heart, it turned out that in this world, reality made people feel so powerless. All kinds of things in the past, their own efforts, are like floating dust, which can be taken away by a gust of wind, leaving nothing.
"What are the identities of those three Yuanying Cultivators?" After being silent for a long time, Qiao Yu opened his eyes violently and asked coldly.
"Why are you asking this?" Qiao Teng looked at the face of the young man in front of him with some surprise, however, it was from the other party's deep pupils that he faintly noticed a trace of fierceness. couldn't help but hurriedly said: "Don't come nonsense, the other party is the true ancestor of Yuanying, even if we suffer this catastrophe, we can only blame our strength for being too weak, bad luck, and no thoughts of dividing anything." ”
"I just asked you a question, and you told me these inconsequential things. Qiao Yu sneered, and his tone seemed to have changed.
Seeing the young man's actions in front of him, Qiao Teng pondered for a long time before frowning and continued: "Well, you at least have the right to know some of the situation." I can tell you that among the three Yuanying True Ancestors on the other side, two of them are the top forces of the empire, the people of the Falling Moon Peak and the Sea Secluded Palace, and the other Demon Corpse True Ancestor Although I have never heard of it, it must not be a simple character to be able to contend with the two top forces of the two Yuanying True Ancestors with their own strength, and finally retreat with their whole bodies. ”
Qiao Teng's words were mixed with the meaning of warning, and Qiao Yu naturally understood it. In the Star Rainbow Empire, the two top forces of the Falling Moon Peak and the Sea Secluded Palace, occupying dangerous peaks and sea areas, have been fighting against each other for nearly a thousand years. The foundation of the two major forces is almost very strong. These, Qiao Yu is also often seen in the immortal classics.
"Sure enough, the reality is so aggressive...... Qiao Yu muttered sarcastically to himself in his heart, looking at the sky, the wolf smoke after the war filled the entire sky, and it was gloomy. And its gaze passed through the dark clouds, and finally shot into the endless sky. There, as if at this moment, it had become the goal where he had to rise up.
It has been three days since the appearance of strange treasures and disasters from the sky. In the past three days, Qiao Yu and Qiao Teng and the remaining two elders buried all the dead clansmen one after another. In the end, all the living clansmen were gathered, and it was found that there were less than a hundred people in total.
After this catastrophe, the hearts of the people in the clan withered, and all the living clansmen pinned their hopes on Qiao Yu and others. After several people deliberated, they decided to move out of this place and join the "Qiaomen", whose strength was second only to the top power in the empire.
Now that the Qiao family is dead, Qiao Yu learned from Qiao Teng and Qiao Mei that the patriarch Qiao Yuan, who had laid a foundation here, and all the elders were originally the outer disciples of this "Qiao Gate". Because it is not reused in Qiaomen, it came here to develop, which is why there is today's Qiao family.
However, Qiao Men did not pursue this matter, and did not even investigate it in depth. After all, for second-level forces like Qiao Men, the Qiao family was just an ant-like existence, and they couldn't pose any threat to them at all.
Now that the Qiao family is in such a scene, if they want to gain a foothold here, it is naturally impossible for another fierce tiger Qingyao Pavilion to tolerate it. Joining Qiaomen, using Qiaomen to strengthen yourself, preserve your strength, and then try to start from the east can be said to be the best way to go.
In the Treasure Pavilion, all the treasures that were not damaged had been put away by Qiao Teng. All the property in the market has also been dispersed to compensate the cooperative merchants. And with many clansmen, to join a behemoth like Qiaomen, there is no oil and water at all. Half of the treasures in this treasure cabinet were taken out to pay tribute, and the other half was hidden for future needs.
The night before leaving, the sky seemed to be surprisingly good. Above the endless sky, the sky is full of stars and the moon is shining. That night, all the remaining clansmen were in this ruin, waiting for the dawn to come. This night was undoubtedly a sad night.
Qiao Ba and Qiao Nan left at night because they disagreed with Qiao Yu and others. That night, no one noticed that Qiao Yu secretly sneaked out of Yunxi City, and rushed all the way towards the endless mountain range.
Outside Yunxi City, about a hundred miles. This place is close to the end of the Spirit Mine Mountain Range, connecting to another mountain range, leading to other continents. The location of the treasure that fell from the sky during the day is in this vicinity.
In the deep forest, where there are few people, scarlet blood can be seen everywhere, sprinkled all over the land and trees. There are also branches with scraps of human clothes. These scenes are what Qiao Yu has seen all the way in the deep forest.
And these circumstances also confirmed Qiao Yu's guess. In the vicinity of the day, there are brigades of two forces, fighting to the death. The corpses left behind were either removed by the same door, or they became a feast for the spirit animals in the forest. And the reason why these horses are fighting is undoubtedly to compete for the Heavenly Treasure that day.
The reason why Qiao Yu was able to feel the breath of the strange treasure from the sky was also due to the hint of the mysterious red crystal. The mysterious power of this crystal sensed the birth of a strange treasure from the sky, and at the same time as the strange treasure came, it sensed the powerful aura of the surrounding monks.
It's just that what makes Qiao Yu puzzled is that it stands to reason that those few Primal Ancestors three days ago should have taken away a treasure from the sky. However, at this moment, the mysterious crystal in his mind still sensed this vicinity. In other words, the strange treasure that came this time is probably not one, but twin different treasures.
