Chapter Forty-Six: The Old Demon.
"Hong"'s body is already full of gloom, which makes people look at it intimidatingly, but the gloom on this black-robed person is countless times heavier, although the body is small, but it has its own majesty, the whole body is wrapped in a faint black mist, and the soul seems to be out of the body after a long time, absorbed by these black fogs, as if it is an envoy in the netherworld, bringing only terror and death to the world.
Although this black-robed man was standing there silently, except for "Hong", no one dared to approach the land within a radius of ten zhang, in fact, anyone who approached had already turned into dry bones.
And "Hong" was also trembling standing behind the black-robed man, he didn't dare to breathe, lowered his head and lowered his hands, and at the same time the corners of his eyes were constantly secretly looking at the old man in front of him, although he knew that he wouldn't see anything, but he always had to look at it twice, and his heart would be slightly stable.
"Hong" thought so, but in fact, seeing the thin but tall back like a mountain, the expression that was completely unclear under the hood and black fog, "Hong" was even more apprehensive.
Occasionally, "Hong"'s eyes will sneak a glance at the turquoise spine-like cane in the black-robed man's hand, but it always disappears in a flash, and the black-robed man regards this cane as something more important than life, if he feels that "Hong" has a snooping heart for this cane, even if "Hong" himself doesn't dare to think about it, the black-robed man will not hesitate to kill "Hong". In fact, for this black-robed man, killing "Hong" is not much more difficult than killing a cat and a dog on the side of the road.
In the "Hades" organization, over the years, because of the moodiness of "Huang", and for some reason, "Xuan", who is very compatible with "Huang", will occasionally intervene, and the actions of the "Hades" organization themselves carry great dangers, in order to remove the suspicion of the Righteous Path Alliance. will also often destroy the people in the organization to cut off the connection with the "underworld", so in addition to the four people of "heaven", "earth", "xuan" and "huang" in the "underworld" organization, the remaining twelve members are often replaced.
Outsiders always think that there are sixteen core members of the "Hades" organization, but in fact, the real core is only the two elders of "Heaven" and "Earth", and the rest of them can be sacrificed and given up at any time. After all, the benefits of participating in the "underworld" far outweigh the dangers.
It's just that the strength of "Xuan" and "Huang" is too strong. So much so that even the two of "heaven" and "earth" did not dare to abandon and give up at will. And let these two people be in charge of the task of removing the members of the organization that might expose the existence of the "underworld". This is also the reason why the "underworld" has not been manifested by the Immortal Cultivation Realm for so many years.
And "Hong" is an outlier among the sixteen core members, it has been 500 years since he joined the "Hades" organization, and the other members have changed more than a lot, but he has always been free of disasters and difficulties, even if a certain task of "Hong" is not done well, it is likely that the "Hades" will be exposed, and the "Heaven" and "Earth" will only send other members to take the blame, even if it is "Huang" extremely arrogant. But he never had the idea of "Hong".
This is because "Hong" himself is a cautious person. There are very few mistakes when completing tasks, and they don't want to get rid of "yellow" because they are afraid of "yellow" like other members of the "Netherlands". Second, which is the most important, is because whether it is the second elder of "heaven" and "earth", or "Huang", they all know that behind him is this black-robed man, out of scruples about this black-robed man, even these three people will never move him lightly.
"Hong" himself is one of the eight grandmaster-level masters of the Mahayana period in the "Hades" organization. After participating in the "Underworld", he is even more well-informed, but in the opinion of "Hong", in the "Underworld", I am afraid that only the "Heaven" and "Earth" can barely defeat this black-robed man, and "Xuan" is estimated to lose a little, as for "Huang", before * cultivation, he was by no means the opponent of this black-robed man, and now he has found his heart. * Monk, on the contrary, it is difficult to say.
And the immortal cultivation realm can compete with this black-robed man, plus those legendary monks who no longer know whether they are dead or alive. There will never be more than five.
Everyone in the world thinks that in the Zhong family, the ancestor Zhong Ling is the top person, but no one knows that Zhong Ling has a son who has never been conspicuous but is more talented. The "Purgatory Scepter" was his son's idea, and when his son died in Zhong Ling, his cultivation was far past Zhong Ling, and he was the first person in the Zhong family to reach the Mahayana period. When the major sects in the Immortal Cultivation Realm suppressed the Zhong family, it was also this person who took the Zhong family into hiding.
This retreat. That's exactly 2,300 years.
"Hong" didn't know if this black-robed man was Zhong Ling's son. But when "Hong" was accepted into the door by the Zhong family, this black-robed man was already a grandmaster of the Mahayana period. Time is too long, even the people of the Zhong family do not know the generation of this black-robed man, but he is called "Old Ancestor", according to the master of "Hong", a disciple of the Zhong family, said that when he was born, this black-robed man was already as unfathomable as he is now.
It is precisely because of this that "Hong" is so in awe of this black-robed man.
Originally, "Hong" was the only master of the Mahayana period among the disciples of the Zhong family except for the black-robed person and the current head of the Zhong family, and he had the support of the Zhong family, so he should have had no scruples, but at this time, "Hong's" heart was full of panic, because he knew that this time, he really made the black-robed people angry.
A moment later, the group of black-clothed people searching the ruins of the "Treasure Pavilion", the leader of them walked quickly in front of the black-robed man after hearing the reports of several other black-clothed people, but he stopped a hundred steps away from the black-robed man, as if once he got closer, something terrible would happen.
"Ancestor, the holy relic is not in this ruin, it may have been taken by the people who came here to search before. ”
Or the characteristics of the Zhong family, although the man in black was full of awe and panic in his tone, he still sounded gloomy.
On the other hand, after hearing the report of the man in black, the man in black robe did not say anything, but "Hong" trembled in his heart first, and the trace of luck that was still left in his heart was completely gone, and without saying a word, he immediately knelt down in front of the man in black robe, and at the same time buried his head deep in the ground, ignoring the dignity of a generation of grandmasters.
A sigh with the vicissitudes of eternity sounded slowly, and the voice was hoarse, still gloomy.
Then, I heard an incomparably old voice coming from under the black robe.
"Remember what I said to you when I asked you to join the Underworld?"
The voice was neither happy nor angry, but "Hong"'s body was already trembling first, and after taking a deep breath, he tried to make his voice steady, and only replied after a long time: "Remember, you said at that time that my Zhong family has been in seclusion in the Valley of Death for too long, although its strength is getting stronger and stronger, but there are no eyes and ears outside the valley, plus the two elders of the world of the underworld invited the Zhong family to participate in the underworld, and I can't refuse, so you let me participate in the underworld as the representative of the Zhong family, and use the power of the underworld to find the whereabouts of the lost holy relics of my clan." ”
After hearing Hong's answer, the black-robed man was still unhappy and angry, and just asked, "How many years have it been since then?"
"Hong" finally stabilized his voice, but under this bland question, he trembled again.
"500 years ......"
"Yes, it's been five hundred years, and you've finally made some progress here, knowing that the holy relics were lost to the Treasure Pavilion two hundred years ago, I remember that the Treasure Pavilion was also controlled by the Underworld, right? It's really big. ”
"Hong" was just about to explain something, but the black-robed man asked again: "Then two hundred years ago, when I let Xiao Thirteen enter the underworld, what did you say to you?"
"Hong"'s voice trembled even more, and he said slowly: "You said, Xiao Thirteen is a rare genius of my clan, although it is a spirit transformation * with the help of the Spirit Transformation Sect, but he is also the only person of the Zhong family who can merge with the corpse refining in addition to you, and he is also quite intelligent, and he is the best candidate to lead the Zhong family in the future." However, the lack of resources in the Valley of Death allowed Xiao Thirteen to join the underworld, although he was only an alternate member under the core members, but he could gain more knowledge, and secondly, his cultivation could also improve faster. Let me take good care of Little Thirteen, and don't let him have any accidents. ”
The black-robed man had a smile in his voice this time, but "Hong" had reached the limit and his mood became even more tense.
"So, where is my little thirteen now?"
"I was killed by a loose cultivator named Xu Fan. ”
Although the black-robed man asked knowingly, "Hong" still had to answer again.
