Soul Beast, a mysterious monster beast that uses soul power mutation to advance, and cannot use its body form and bloodline to determine the belonging of the species. It is regarded as the most ominous "thing" in heaven and earth. Its "prestige" is slightly inferior to the Blood Demon Beast, but the Terran hates the Soul Beast even more.

Five thousand years ago, under the unified command of a certain Terran ancestor, the Terran army went all out to hunt down the Soul Crying Beast and completely eradicate it.

The reason why Chen Tianhong shouted out "Crying Soul Lion" was because he had read the relevant classics and was impressed, and secondly, because there was a looming lion shape on the back of the cat-like monster, which was exactly the same as the situation recorded in the classics.

At first glance, it is no different from an ordinary large-flowered cat, with a pair of sharp claws clutching at one end of the wishful stick. However, what is really powerful is the phantom on its back. Because that phantom can attack independently, it is a real soul attack. If you are attacked, the end will be the situation of the person who exploded.

Facing this kind of monster for the first time, Chen Tianhong was a little overwhelmed. But at this moment, the cat's paws relaxed little by little, and the lion phantom on its back slowly melted into the cat's flesh.

Chen Tianhong's eyes swept to the white horse and Li Chungang, and found that Li Chungang was close to the white horse, holding a strange "swastika" shaped trick with both hands, and there were words in his mouth. I couldn't hear what he was reading, as if he had been repeating a dozen sentences.

As the shadow on the cat's back disappeared, the cat's body quickly became smaller and the color of its body faded. After about a moment, it magically transformed into a little black cat like a small pet, and its eyes radiated a bright blue light.

Li Chungang stopped chanting, walked lightly to the little black cat, picked it up carefully, squinted at Chen Tianhong, shook his head and said, "Let a kitten scare you." It's just a fuss, I really haven't seen the world. ”

"How can you 'cry the soul trick'?" This time, it was Chen Tianhong's turn to be puzzled.

Li Chungang's eyes rolled, cast two extremely disdainful looks, and hummed: "Is it only your ancestor who is a character?"

"I see. Chen Tianhong shook his head and smiled, "I really didn't expect it." Ashamed. ”

"Today, we had a lot of luck. Let's go and find the treasure. Li Chungang laughed and said, "The kitten guards a large number of treasures, let's add five to it and divide it." ”

The two continued to walk deeper into the Dragon Mountains.

The nearest monk, a few waves of daring men, walked in, but when they saw the strange corpse, they immediately withdrew and moved in the direction where the snake's head had been smashed. It's a lot safer there.

Li Chungang led the way in front of the little black cat's head. After walking for half an hour, they came to a cave.

The peak on which the cave is located is the first peak north of Shekou. The entrance to the cave is not large, and people have to walk halfway to enter it.

"If you're afraid to go in, just wait outside. ”

Li Chungang turned around and grimaced, a weird smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then the cat went into the cave.

Chen Tianhong really had no intention of going in, thinking: I have enough opportunities, and I can't digest more. Since Li Chungang can control the opportunity here, it is not a good thing that it all belongs to him.

Thinking of this, he did not enter the cave, but walked towards the peak with the white horse.

Under normal circumstances, the peaks where there are soul beasts will not survive demon beasts and monsters. However, the dangers in the Dragon Mountains are too unpredictable to imagine. Therefore, when climbing the mountain, Chen Tianhong replaced the weapon in his hand with the Open Heaven Demon Sword.

Walking to the mountainside, Chen Tianhong stopped abruptly and calmly looked to the east. The fog in the east was not unusual, but Chen Tianhong was sure that it was unusual. He was hesitating to go over and take a look, when he saw three people walking out of the mist.

"Master!"

The person who came turned out to be his master, Shengwu Zhenjun, and the two senior sisters of White Tiger and Vermilion Bird. Chen Tianhong's mind immediately appeared the scene of Tianlong Temple, and he seemed to understand something in his heart.

"The Blood Demon Beast and the Soul Crying Beast have reappeared in the Shenzhou Continent one after another, indicating that the new arrival of the Millennium Tribulation will be inevitable. Saint Martial True Monarch said indifferently, "In comparison, the combination of the descendants of the greedy wolf and the descendants of the immortals is the biggest variable. For the teacher, he had to go down the mountain in person. ”

Chen Tianhong remained motionless and did not know how to respond.

Baihu said: "Aren't you worried about his safety?"

"If I die, he can't die. Chen Tianhong shook his head affirmatively.

"You're probably thinking that being a teacher is here for the gray snake, right? In fact, the person who sealed the gray snake is indeed my ancestor Emperor Yuan. Shengwu continued, "In the past, the Yuan Emperor used the power to descend the gray snake and gouge out its eyes to block the entrance to a certain otherworld. and sealed his true body in a corner of the Dragon Mountains. The Grey Serpent is one of the guardian beasts of the Otherworld, and its powerful beast soul still escaped and returned to the Otherworld. Now, if you slay its true body, its beast soul in the other world will rediscover its host and gradually awaken. When the Grey Serpent of the Atlas returns to its peak, it is when the entrance to the Atlas reopens. ”

"That entrance is in the Demon Realm?" Chen Tianhong quickly reacted.

"Not bad. That entrance is under the palace where the first Demon Emperor was born. In order to prevent the wolf ambitions in the human race from causing trouble in the world, Emperor Yuan kept the location of the palace from the world. And the realm of the demon realm is at least five times that of the realm where the human race is located, and the Demon Emperor's Palace is not a thousand, but also eight hundred. Therefore, even if the cultivation elite of the Terran race is dispatched, it is impossible to ensure that the investigation is clear. Fortunately, you beheaded the true body of the gray snake, which greatly delayed the process of the demon clan using a secret method to summon the gray snake beast soul. Bought precious time for the Terrans. ”

"Master, do you want to ......?"

"Unite the nine major factions and the Terran Cultivation Force, and wave your army to the west to conquer the demon realm!" "This time, the sect will be led by your senior brother Qinglong, Qinglong, and the four heavenly guards. White Tiger, Xuanwu and you don't have to participate. ”

"Disciple obeys!"

What the Holy Martial True Monarch has decided, there is nothing to argue about.

The Holy Martial True Monarch's expedition seemed to be over, and after he finished speaking, he rode the clouds and disappeared into the mist.

* * *

Chen Tianhong did not continue to go up the mountain, and immediately turned around and walked down the mountain. When he walked down the mountain, Li Chungang was already waiting at the entrance of the cave, with a strange smile on his face.

"Somebody came here and took a few things. However, the real treasure is still only Tsunade and I can find it. ”

"Congratulations. We need to hurry home. Chen Tianhong was not interested in paying attention to Li Chungang, "Today, it seems that it is already the twenty-third day of the lunar month? ”

Two weirdos walk together, weird to each other, always incomprehensible to each other.

As the two of them walked back to the mountain path, they heard a few people talking in surprise.

"Brother Lu, is the Grand Canal starting to freeze?

"Brother Lu is right. The only thing that can freeze the Grand Canal is the legendary 'heavy water'. But this ghost has long been extinct in the world. ”

"That's not necessarily, after all, there are nine major sects. What's more, it is unknown whether only 'heavy water' can freeze the canal. However, the core of the question is, what is the real purpose of the people who let the Grand Canal freeze?"

"Of course, it's to cross the Grand Canal and start a war against the demon clan. Undoubtedly, only the strength of the nine major factions can do it and dare to act like this. ”

"Hey! What's the use of saying this? We also have to hurry up and prepare, in case we have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters!

Chen Tianhong knew what was going on, did not stop, and quickly went down the mountain. Li Chungang pretended to have nothing to do before he quickly caught up.

"You didn't do it, did you?"

"I don't have that ability!"

"How do I feel, you already know this?" Li Chungang's eyes containing wisdom turned slowly and habitually, "Could it be that you saw someone just now?"

"Yes!" Chen Tianhong did not deny it, but he would not say who it was.

"It seems that it must be your master!" Li Chungang felt a kind of melancholy and sad emotion, "The sins created by his ancestors, of course, he and his sons and grandsons are inescapable. It seems that he is still a man and dares to face the past of his ancestors. ”

Li Chungang could guess that Chen Tianhong was not surprised at all. Li Chungang was not surprised by Chen Tianhong's appearance, nor was he surprised at all. However, when it comes to this, there is not much to say.

When the two returned to the Greedy Wolf Manor, they went back to their respective houses.

An hour later, Chen Tianhong summoned the sixth brother, the eighth brother, Long Bo and others to rearrange all the affairs.

On the same day, Chen Tianhong immediately began to reorganize the team. According to the first guard system led by Jiang Shang, nine Davids were established in turn. Among them, the barracks of Chen Tianan and Chen Taiyan are not included in the establishment sequence of the greedy wolf guard.

Chen Tianhong's pain point is that the candidates for Wei Shuai, Sima, and Situ of the other eight guards are really out of line. Although there are some investigation results, compared with Jiang Shang and the three of them, the gap is really a bit big. There is no way, when it is first created, it is impossible to take all the benefits.

As the master of the greedy wolf guard, the problem of talent is a core issue that must be faced. In the case that the old man of time is unlikely to give extra time, he can only act reluctantly. Everyone is reluctant to make it difficult, and no one will be easy, but it is also fair.

At this time, there is nothing but prayer.

For a moment, the tension spread throughout Stormwind.

As the news of the freezing of the Grand Canal spread, the Terrans, who had been quiet for too long, finally became restless. The old and new forces quickly formed a powerful alliance one after another, and they were all gearing up and ready to make a big move.

The Thousand Crane Guard, who had formed an alliance with the Greedy Wolf Guard, also completed a new alliance ceremony, establishing the rules for the distribution of the alliance leader and the spoils of war. It is jointly signed by the leaders of each guard and kept by the leader of the alliance.

By Chinese New Year's Eve, everything was ready.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, a west wind suddenly blew on the Dragon Mountains.

The westerly wind hunts and blows the long-accumulated cold of the Dragon Mountains towards the Grand Canal. The Grand Canal, which had been slowly frozen, froze for thousands of miles overnight, like a crystal surface flat.

The Grand Canal freezes, reconnecting two pieces of land that have been separated for a long time. At the same time, it also means exposing new wars to interracial relations.

The west wind is fierce and gloomy.

Between heaven and earth, who is in contention?
