Chapter 427: Turmoil
Chapter 427: Turmoil
Outside Xilu City, Yinzhou, on top of an obscure green mountain, there is a gentle slope facing the sun. The grass is green, and a few trees are luxuriant, and they sway slightly when the mountain breeze blows, making it a quiet and beautiful place. A small tomb sits on a hillside, with fragrant grass and delicate wildflowers, blooming in front and back. There is a tombstone in front of the grave, but there is no text engraved on it, it is a wordless stone tablet.
On this day, Shen Shi stood in front of this nameless tomb and watched quietly. Buried in this tomb is his mother, who died very young, and now there are more ashes of his father Shen Tai, according to Shen Tai's last wishes, Shen Shi brought him back to his hometown and buried with his mother.
Many years ago, Xilu City in Yinzhou was the hometown of their family, but so many changes happened later, and when Shen Tai finally decided to betray Xuan/Yin/Men, he also foresaw possible revenge from Xuanyin/Gate in the future. In the large area of the Tianyin Mountain Range, almost all of them can be regarded as a powerful Xuan/Yin/Gate sphere of influence, if Shen Shi's mother's tomb is still in place after Shen Tai leaves, then the revenge of Xuan/Yin/Gate can almost be imagined.
So Shen Tai secretly moved his deceased wife's tomb to this unknown place one step in advance, and he didn't even dare to erect a tombstone with words for the sake of secrecy. In addition to Shen Tai himself, this place also knows that Shen Shi knows it alone.
Now that the years have passed in a blink of an eye, he has grown from a teenager to adulthood, but in this world, he is the only one left after all.
Behind the tombstone in front of him was the closest relative to him in the world.
The wordless tombstone looked so cold, as if it was blocking the door of yin and yang, Shen Shi knelt down in front of the tomb gently, rubbing the hard stone tablet, and there was sadness in his eyes that could not be concealed. After a long while, his expression slowly calmed down, and then he kowtowed three times in front of the grave, and then whispered:
"Father, mother, you should be together, the child still has some things to do, and he must go first. When I'm done, I'll definitely come back to see you if I have the chance. ”
With that, he smiled, leaned down and kowtowed upright, then stood up and just wanted to leave, but suddenly seemed to remember something, his body paused, and then he reached out and groped in the Ruyi bag for a while, and took out an emerald green jade hourglass that looked a little old.
The fine sand still flows silently in the hourglass, like time flies, and the joys and sorrows of the world are no longer seen. Shen Shi held the hourglass tightly in his hand, and then gently placed it on the nameless stone tablet.
He took one last look at the tomb, then turned and walked down the hillside, behind him a mountain wind blew, the shadows of the trees shook the grass undulating, the jade hourglass stood in the wind, the fine grains of sand flowed, watching the back gradually go away, disappearing at the end of this hillside......

After a lapse of 10,000 years, the great battle of the human race re-entering the demon realm ended faster and faster than anyone imagined. The weakness of the demon race is beyond the imagination of most human races, although the resistance of many remaining demon tribes is still tenacious and resolute, but in the face of the strong strength accumulated by the human race for thousands of years, all the blood, passion, and fierce resistance like a tragic song are still in ashes after all. In contrast, it was the first ghost army that had besieged the Terrans for a while, causing a lot of trouble to the Terrans.
But now it seems that the ghost thing is only causing a little trouble, since the ghost thing has failed to attack the demon under the demon city several times, the momentum of the ghost thing army has come to an abrupt end, and then it quickly routs at an amazing speed, and finally the human race is completely defeated.
The final end of the war was marked by the army of Terran monks sweeping across the entire demon world, and finally killing a group of powerful demon clans in the Black Hell Mountain, in this group of demon clans, according to the demon clan, it is said that there is a bloodline left by the ancient demon emperor. But what the truth is, the human race actually doesn't care, in short, after that, in the huge demon world, this origin boundary land that gave birth to the powerful demon race, has been completely subsumed into the territory ruled by the human race.
All the slightly more powerful demon tribes have been wiped out, and the remaining fish that have slipped through the net can only run for their lives to the edge of the realm, living a precarious life, and no longer able to fight against the human race like the sky.
The great cause of unifying the Hongmeng realms, one of the unfinished saints of the human race, was finally completed in the hands of their descendants after 10,000 years.
No matter from which aspect, a new era is about to begin, the glory of the human race has reached the highest peak in history, looking at the Hongmeng world, no race dares to stand in front of the human race, all can only bow down.
With these great achievements came endless revelry and heavenly congratulations, and the title of sacred sage began to be shouted out and added to the heads of several heads of the Four Righteous Sects, but in the middle, some noise also began to appear. Can the new Four Sages of the Terran Race really be compared to the six great sages who led the Terran Race to overthrow the Heavenly Demon King Court in the past?
Even within the Four Righteous Famous Sects, many people began to talk quietly, because except for the Yuanfeng Hall of the Yuan Shi Gate and Nangong Lei of the Heavenly Sword Palace, the remaining two, whether they were Huaiyuan Zhenren or Tianqu Venerable, did not have the bloodline passed down by the Six Saints of the Human Race in the past. To some this is not a big deal at all, but to others it is a great rebellion and betrayal.
And among the two, the Heavenly Suffering Venerable Master suffered less criticism, after all, Ji Rongxuan, the founding patriarch of the Zhenlong Palace, was a well-known monk, and he had no lineage, and there were still some side branches that have been handed down, so he really didn't have a position to care about it. The difference is that the Gan family in the Lingxiao Sect is still not a small force, and because of this, Huaiyuan Zhenren fell into an extremely violent speech attack, but on the surface, everything has not changed for the time being.
The world is still the world of the human race, and this is the time for the whole world to celebrate.
At this time, it was probably only more than a year since the day when the human race invaded the demon world.
Shen Shi returned to the Lingxiao Sect and began to practice in retreat, for some reason he suddenly had a sense of boredom with the strife in the outside world, maybe if he thought about it carefully, in fact, he himself had never had too strong an interest in the position of power, and many times he was just pushed forward by various things.
But the disturbing world does not allow him to stay out of it. Shen Shi soon found that he seemed to be about to be caught up in a new and more sinister wave, with the return of the Terran army and the return of the elite of the Lingxiao Sect to Jinhong Mountain, the battle for the position of the next generation in the future suddenly and quickly became white-hot.
And the first person to speak to him was a candidate he hadn't thought of, that morning, when he knocked on the stone door of his cave, when he saw Zhong Qingzhu standing at the door, his mood was inexplicably cold.
