Chapter 1: The Temple
There were few stars in the dark night, and the sky seemed to be stained with a layer of haze.
In the main hall of the Lei Shengshan Mansion to the north of the Eight Holy Mountains, a bunch of people gathered at this time.
The four old men sitting at the top of the hall were none other than the Four Saints of Earth, Fire, Wood and Thunder of the Black Dragon Clan.
The old man with a sharp face as strong as a tiger and a face as brown as earth is the earth saint Chai Baizhong; the round-faced old man with red eyebrows and red hair and red veins floating on his skin is the Fire Saint Yan Liaohu; the old man in black who is as thin as dry wood and has a pair of dead fish eyes is the Wood Saint Jiang Hunt; and the strong man with short hair and waves of thunder on his body on the edge is the Lei Shenglei Horizontal Cannon.
There were more than a dozen people standing behind each of the four of them, all of whom were powerhouses at the level of the Divine Power Realm, either looking like young people or looking like old men, but their actual ages were also three or four hundred years old.
These people are all descendants of the Four Saints, and they are the most orthodox bloodlines of the Four Saints.
"I really didn't expect that the last two pillars of the formation were not in the hands of the Water Saint, could it be that our information was wrong?"
The earth saint Chai Bai said in a deep voice.
"This matter was heard by the old man himself from the water saint, and you all know that the old guy is good at drinking, so he finally said that he leaked his mouth. As a result, he didn't want to kill him, but the thing was not in the ring, and the old man searched his house several times to no avail, either the thing was transferred to someone else, or it was hidden in an unknown place. ”
Fire Saint Yan Liaohu said.
"Originally, it was planned that as long as we obtained these two pillars, we would be able to have a complete Yin Soul Killing Array. With this thing, you can enter the tomb of the two ancestors and obtain the treasure 'Dragon Ancestor Order', which has not been handed down by the two ancestors. ”
Wood Saint Jiang Hunt said.
"Yes, although it is not difficult to level the Four Saints of the White Dragon Tribe with our strength, but this will lead to a war between the two major clans, and even if we win the war, we will lose a lot of vitality, which will damage the great strategy. But as long as we have the Dragon Ancestor Order in hand, we can make the Three Saints of the White Dragon Clan obey our orders, and when the time comes, we can find a scapegoat to be the murderer of the Water Saint, and we can solve this matter perfectly. Then, open the dragon's lair again and compete with the humans of the half-world!"
Lei Shenglei said in a deep voice.
"But the problem is that now that neither of these pillars can be found, it seems that this solution will not work. ”
Chai Baizhong sighed.
"Yes, we finally found a way to open the mausoleum, but we didn't expect that two array pillars were left in the hands of the Water Saint. It's just that if you can't assemble the Yin Soul Killing Array now, you can only use the last resort. ”
Yan Liaohu said in a deep voice.
"Yes, the only way to do this is to make the Stone Dragon King surrender and then use the power of the Stone Dragon King to forcibly open the tomb, and to do this, you need to enshrine the Dragon King's horn in the temple. ”
Chai Baizhong said.
"Tomorrow is the day of the Water Saint's burial, and when the three saints of the White Dragon Clan will pass, then the best time to seize the Dragon King's horn. ”
Yan Liaohu said.
Chai Baizhong said to the children under the table, "Which of you is willing to take on this heavy responsibility?"
"The child is willing to take on this important task!"
A burly tall man walked out and hugged his fists.
Immediately afterwards, three more disciples came out and answered loudly, these four people were the sons of the four saints, namely Chai Yan, Yan Kun, Jiang Ran and Lei Kaixuan.
Chai Baizhong said with a smile: "I don't think you have to fight, this matter is up to the four of them, and only if they can break into the depths of the temple can they be qualified to inherit our position." ”
The other three saints all nodded, knowing very well their son's strength.
Moreover, the three saints of the White Dragon Clan would never have expected that they would go to seize the Dragon King's Horn.
As soon as the second day dawned, Li Mo had already infiltrated the outskirts of the clan old mountain, and he hid in a cave made of the mirror realm, covered with long vines, extremely hidden.
When the sky was bright and eight drums sounded from the inner city, I saw that the city gate at the exit of the inner city was wide open, and a large group of people and horses walked out of it, and the team stretched all the way to the entrance of the old mountain.
Soon after, the Seven Sages came from the Eight Sages Mountain and took a group of clan elders to the Ancestral City.
After everyone entered the ancestral city, Li Mo immediately slipped out of his hiding place and hurried to the Eight Holy Mountains.
At this moment, a white shadow in the sky descended at high speed and landed on a mountain in the distance.
The white shadow was originally a white-feathered falcon with pure white fur, and it was very easy to hide its form in this clear weather.
And on top of it stood a pretty woman, suddenly it was the Ice Saint Ji Kui.
Seeing Li Mo scurrying among the mountains like a meteor, Ji Kui sneered and said, "I knew that you would take this opportunity to sneak into the Eight Holy Mountains, and this time I will definitely find out the purpose of your sneaking here." ”
On the other side, Li Mo drove lightly all the way, and soon arrived at the Eight Holy Mountain.
The burial ceremony held in the city will not take more than an hour, and it is not easy to climb through the eight mountains in one hour, so Li Mo is also out of the way, ready to ride Xiao Hei to search blatantly, anyway, the Seven Saints are not here now.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that four figures appeared from a mountain in the distance, flying towards the direction of Shuangzu Mountain at an extremely fast speed.
Li Mo's heart thumped, anyone who appeared here at this time must have another purpose.
And no matter who they are, their familiarity with this place is definitely more than their own.
Although the place they went to was not necessarily the temple, they could not miss the opportunity to track it, and anyway, going inside was also the place to search for the temple.
Therefore, Li Mo directly took Xiao Hei away and began to track the four people.
The four of them were obviously very familiar with the terrain here, and at this time, they let go of their bodies and flew at high speed, moving through the mountains like streamers.
Li Mo kept a distance and followed, and at the same time judged that the cultivation of the four people was all in the early stage of the Divine Power Realm.
As the four of them went deeper, they arrived at a ravine as they crossed a jungle area.
The valley is surrounded by mountains, so it is difficult to see from the outside world, and in the middle of the valley there is a small hill, and from the foot of the mountain there is a wide avenue that leads to the top of the mountain, and in the place of the hill suddenly a temple of gold and splendor is built.
"Temple!"
Li Mozhi was shocked in his heart and secretly called lucky.
Sure enough, there was nothing wrong with tracking down the four people, this temple that suddenly appeared in the valley hidden on the edge of the Shuangzu Mountain must be a temple.
And even from a great distance, he could feel that there was some kind of powerful power hidden in the hall, and that must be the Dragon King's horn.
Just take the dragon king's horns, and this thing is half done.
At this time, those four people stopped at the foot of the hill, and these four people were naturally the heirs of the four saints of the Black Dragon tribe among the Seven Saints.
Chai Yan, like his father Tusheng, was burly and strong, but he had a donkey face, and he looked extremely uncoordinated.
Yan Kun also followed his father's appearance, with a big beard, coarse pores on his face, and a bit of ferocity.
Jiang Ran is thin, his face looks similar to Chai Yan's, but his eyes are big.
Lei Kaixuan is mediocre in appearance, but compared with the three of them, he can be described as handsome.
"Sure enough, as my father said, when the Seven Saints leave the Eight Saints Mountain, the formation of the temple will automatically activate. ”
Chai Yan said.
"I heard that this array was set up by the ancestor himself, called the 'Thousand Steps Mystery Array', from here to the temple, a total of 3,000 steps to walk, it can be described as a step by step mystery, and a wrong step will trigger the magic circle. And the magic circle here can be described as interlocking, and it is not allowed to be sloppy. ”
Yan Kun said solemnly.
"Fortunately, my father told me how to go, from now on, the four of us are one, if anyone takes a wrong step, it is not a joke. If the matter here is known to the people of the White Dragon Clan, then all the work done will be wasted. ”
Chai Yan said in a deep voice.
"Brother Yan, don't worry, this road map is in my head, and I won't be wrong with my eyes closed. Jiang Ran laughed.
"Okay, let's get started now. ”
After Chai Yan said that, he walked forward with a solemn face.
Yan Kun and the three of them followed behind, although there was no picture on the ground, the steps of the four of them remained unified, and the position of each step was extremely accurate.
Walking forward step by step, the four of them were cautious, not slow, but definitely not fast.
"It's too slow......"
Li Mo watched from the hiding place, his head was big.
If they went on like this, it would take him at least half an hour to reach the temple, and he didn't have so much time to waste here.
Originally, he thought that the four of them would arrive at the temple, but if the purpose was not the dragon king's horn but something else, then he stood by and waited until the four of them left, and then slipped out to take the dragon's horn, which can be described as unaware.
But unexpectedly, there is a magic circle here, and if you really wait for the four of you to arrive at the temple to see what their purpose is, there will be too many variables.
This matter should have been done quickly.
Thinking like this, Li Mo immediately walked out.
"Who?"
As soon as they noticed that someone had appeared, Chai Yan and the four of them were taken aback.
"Don't be nervous, you don't have to be nervous, you're here to do something in the temple. ”
Li Mo smiled.
These four people are also stealing chickens and dogs, and besides, their identity has long been exposed to Ji Kui, so they have no scruples.
"You're from the White Dragon Clan?"
Chai Yan's face sank.
The four of them all knew what their family was, and the young man in front of them was obviously not from the Black Dragon Clan.
Li Mo didn't explain, strode into the formation, and arched his hand slightly: "The four of you are slow, and you will take the first step in the next step." ”
With that, he strode forward.
Chai Yan and the four of them all had sneers on their faces, once Li Mo took the wrong path, then a local formation would be triggered, and this formation would only target him, and would not affect the four people who were far away.
It's just that Li Mo seems to be extremely familiar with the formation, and he came along the path that the four people have walked, and the score is exactly the same.
"This kid actually knows the way?"
Chai Yan looked surprised.
You must know that this road is the top secret of the Black Dragon Clan, if it is not taught by his father, then he would not know, but this junior is very familiar with it.
"No matter who he is, if we stop him here, he won't think about it!"
Yan Kun snorted coldly.
The four of them looked at each other, their eyes full of murderous intent.
The four of them stood on the road they had to pass, so the young man didn't dare to trespass, so he could only follow the four honestly.
So as long as it is time to get out of the formation, the four of them will shoot violently, and they can make this junior mess up his pace and step on the killing formation.
Seeing through the wishful thinking of the four people, Li Mo couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "The four of you don't think there is only one way, right?"
As he spoke, he suddenly accelerated, striding forward.
This so-called thousand-step mystical array is indeed a big array, with hundreds of large and small formations, one ring after another, and it is true that it is true to say that it is a step-by-step crisis.
But for a figure like Li Mo, a great master of the formation, the reason why he followed the path of the four people before was completely to study the formation, and now that he has studied the formation thoroughly, he naturally no longer has to follow the path of the four.
