Chapter 165: The son saw his father was still alive and sharpened his knife to stab his father
"The Wushen Cult has really invested a lot this time. I wonder what kind of deal your old emperor made with Saren Agu. Hmm, there's even a Taoist involved. Who is the leader of the Human Sect?"
Zhenbei Palace, underground space.
The nine-tailed fox observed the desolate scenery around it with great interest, wondering who was involved in the massacre.
Under the influence of the formation, the space here was expanded to an outrageous extent, almost half the size of Chuzhou City. Thunder snakes danced wildly above, the earth cracked, thick magma flowed along the cracks on the surface, and the air was filled with the smell of sulfur.
What maintains all this is a wreath of thorns quietly suspended in the air.
The wreath is inconspicuous, and its texture seems to be cast from copper. At first glance, it is no different from the street goods sold at street stalls. If it were sold, I'm afraid even the dogs on the street wouldn't even look at it.
But this is actually one of the magic weapons left by the witch god. It can seal the souls of 380,000 people back into the body, maintain the vitality of the body with secret methods, and then use the entire Chuzhou City as a furnace, the essence and souls of living beings as materials, interfere with the heavenly secrets, and refine the big pill. It is far from possible for a third-grade wizard and a third-grade clone of Hei Lian to do it alone.
What really plays a key role in this is this seemingly ordinary witch god wreath.
"What are you doing?" The Nine-tailed Fox stared at Russell with strange eyes. One of his hands was shining with starlight, and the other was surrounded by blood. It seemed that something was gestating between his hands.
"Of course, it's to add some seasoning to this blood pill that is about to take shape." Russell replied.
In the time it took to say these two sentences, his aura dropped visibly, and a fist-sized lump of flesh quietly took shape in his palm.
"Is this... a Gu?" The Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox frowned slightly.
In the mainstream cultivation system in today's cultivation world, Gu cultivators have always been at the bottom of the bottom. Their upward channels are limited, and the requirements for advancement are harsh. Their strong period is only in the lower three grades. From the sixth grade onwards, the threat posed by Gu cultivators to cultivators of the same grade in other systems has dropped sharply, and it is especially obvious after they become extraordinary.
"The poisonous insect has little effect on the first-level extraordinary practitioners." The Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox reminded, not because he was really worried about Russell, but because he was afraid of triggering the restrictions of the Witch God Wreath and alerting the enemy.
"What are you afraid of? The worst result is that the blood pill will be destroyed." Russell's hands did not stop moving until the meat ball was divided into three parts and the life essence was completely integrated into the thorn wreath.
"That being said, you are not tempted by this blood pill at all?" the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox asked curiously.
She could see that although Russell had studied Gu Dao and another system he had never seen before, martial arts was still his main focus, and he had already come a long way on the path of martial arts.
Needless to say, the blood pill's effectiveness for warriors was immense. Even for a peak-level second-grade warrior like her, taking it could slightly shake the bottleneck that shackled her combat power. However, there truly wasn't even a glimmer of covetousness in Russell's eyes.
Are you so confident in your talent?
If Russell knew the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox's doubts, he would definitely answer, yes, that's right, he was so confident.
"It's just an external thing, why bother about it." Russell raised the corner of his mouth in contempt.
Mr. Luo has achieved what he has today thanks to his unremitting efforts and hard work.
The Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, who didn't know Russell's background, was shocked for a moment when he heard Russell say this, and was stunned and speechless.
"By the way, did you come to Chuzhou City to support Zhu Jiu?" Russell asked after the two returned to the outside of the city.
The Nine-tailed Sky Fox didn't hide anything and nodded: "Yes, whether it is Zhu Jiu reaching the third level of perfection, or the demon race giving birth to another third level, it is a good ending for me."
Since the Battle of Burning Mountain, the Wan Yao Kingdom has suffered heavy casualties, and its high-level combat forces have been almost completely wiped out.
Even today, five hundred years later, the only strong person who has reached the extraordinary level besides herself is the Bear King. The patriarch of the Northern Demon Clan, Zhu Jiu, is a master at the peak of the third rank. If she wants to revive the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons in the future, she cannot do without Zhu Jiu's support.
"If that's the case, I advise you to go back home." Russell sensed the poison seed he left in the prototype of the blood pill, and took the time to glance at the nine-tailed fox.
"What? Sir, do you want me to persuade Zhu Jiu to give up the fight for the blood pill? It's not impossible, but you have to pay a small price." The nine-tailed fox didn't understand Russell's meaning at all, and instead teased him with a charming smile.
"What I mean is that Zhu Jiu and Jili Zhigu are bound to die. You can consider changing the person you support." Russell said.
"Are you kidding? Zhu Jiu and Jili Zhigu are both at the peak of the third rank and are of the same blood. If you are unwilling to join forces with King Zhenbei, you will be outnumbered three." The nine-tailed fox's smile faded, and the look he gave Russell turned into scrutiny.
A person can be proud but not conceited. Once he becomes conceited, he will be on the verge of ruin.
But, could the guy who was favored by the warden be such a conceited and reckless man?
"What life-saving magic weapon did the Supervisor give you?" The nine-tailed fox thought about it and naturally shifted his thoughts to the Supervisor.
In Dafeng, Jianzheng has every plan in mind and is invincible. This is the consensus of all extraordinary people in the world.
"Haha." Russell sneered and ignored her. His whole body quickly became ethereal and disappeared into the starlight.
The nine-tailed fox looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky and reached out to catch the falling stardust.
It was another wonderful system. Even though it was not the first time she saw it, she still felt sincerely curious.
While she was curious, a question lingered in her mind: if starlight was the source of Russell's second power, then what about during the day? Could it be that Russell also had the ability to receive starlight during the day?
Out of curiosity, the nine tails behind the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox appeared, wrapped her up and disappeared on the spot.
"I've got it done here."
At the post station, Russell found Xu Qian'an and explained his plan to him.
Speaking of which, it seems that the real Zheng Xinghuai, the Governor-General, is still hiding in a valley with a few of his followers, looking for opportunities to contact the outside world.
Now that Li Miaozhen and Xu Qian'an are gone, they will probably have to wait until the Chuzhou chaos is quelled before they will know the news belatedly.
But it’s better this way. If Lord Zheng had not been involved in this matter, he would probably not have died because of it.
"Then I'll take the delegation around for the next few days to avoid the King of Zhenbei getting suspicious." Xu Qian'an nodded, feeling relieved, and then said, "Speaking of which, you said you would give me a gift before. When will you fulfill your promise?"
"Don't be impatient, just wait. I will definitely give it to you before leaving Chuzhou." Russell said, suppressing his smile.
"So mysterious." Xu Qian'an muttered softly and didn't ask any more questions. Russell could run away, but the temple couldn't. After returning to the capital, the gift he had promised would definitely be there.
……
Five days later, in the morning, the light was just right. In the attic, the secret letter in the hands of the King of Zhenbei turned to dust. He waved away the spies, stood up from the big chair, looked at the empty hall, and said in a deep voice: "They found out after all. Someone is feeding them information."
The secret letter contained only one piece of information: 20,000 cavalrymen from the Qingyan tribe of the barbarians were marching out in full force, without any baggage, and were heading towards Chuzhou City. At the same time, Zhu Jiu, the leader of the northern demon tribe, led his demon tribe southward, heading straight for Chuzhou City.
"This is to be expected." Master Linghui's voice echoed, "After all, there are too many people who don't want you to reach the second rank. It could be Wei Yuan, it could be the Buddhist sect, and of course, the Supervisor is not impossible."
"How long will the Blood Pill take?" Unconcerned with Master Linghui's meaningless speculation, King Zhenbei was more concerned about the Blood Pill's progress. "You're lucky. The Blood Pill's refining went surprisingly smoothly. It should be completed in an hour." Master Linghui's tone was clearly filled with joy, as he himself had not expected the final stages of the Blood Pill to be so simple.
Hearing this, the expression on King Zhenbei's face finally relaxed.
It was only an hour, and no matter how hard Jili Zhigu and Zhu Jiu tried, they could not break through the Chuzhou city. After he swallowed the blood pill and advanced to the third level of perfection, he immediately killed Zhu Jiu and Jili Zhigu as sacrifices. Moreover, he could also blame the massacre of Chuzhou on these two people.
By then, he had avenged the people of Chuzhou and was still a hero of the entire Dafeng.
At the same time, a figure swayed at the gate. The one-eyed Duke of Protectorate, Que Yongxiu, strode over with a long sword at his waist and one hand on the hilt. "Your Highness, the demon and barbarian tribes have arrived less than twenty miles outside Chuzhou City. We must go to battle."
"If they want to fight! Then let's fight!" Amid the clanging sound of armor, King Zhenbei stood up from his seat with a knife in hand and came to the top of the city with Que Yongxiu.
The blood-red morning glow dyed the sky clear, and a demonic fog rose from the horizon, blocking out the sun. The roars of more than 20,000 demon war beasts rang out, and a behemoth a thousand feet long appeared at the end of the horizon. It was scarlet all over, scaleless, and the single eye on its forehead was like a golden sun.
On the other side, the barbarian war drums tore through the sky, and countless cavalrymen rode unicorns and galloped over. Behind the cavalrymen was a two-meter-tall green giant.
"Boom boom boom!"
The sound of drums shook the whole area, and the soldiers on the city wall immediately started to move, preparing the city defense equipment in an orderly manner, such as rolling stones, kerosene, and wooden planks.
The news that the barbarian army was about to attack the city had already been passed back to Chuzhou. Neither the officers nor the soldiers panicked.
Such a huge commotion inside and outside Chuzhou City naturally caused enough surprise and suspicion. People from the martial arts world rushed out of inns and houses, looking towards the city gate in astonishment.
"It's the two demon and barbarian tribes that are attacking the city! The King of Zhenbei is fighting with their leader!"
A fourth-grade warrior leaped high into the sky by stepping on the air, saw the scene outside the city, and shouted.
When they heard that the war had begun, the rangers did not feel timid, but rather excited.
Since the Battle of Shanhaiguan, the northern border has finally ushered in another large-scale battle. There are even three extraordinary people participating in the battle. They have to join in the fun of such a grand event.
"Look! Look up in the sky! What's that!?"
There was another exclamation, and everyone turned around.
Facing the morning light as the sun rose, local residents walked out of the houses on the street in a daze. They had pale faces, empty eyes, and lacked spirit, like zombies.
Above their heads, tiny streaks of blood overflowed, floated towards the sky, and then gathered together to form a huge ball of blood.
And from their bodies, dark shadows were pulled out and sank into the ground. During the process, the black shadows kept struggling and wailing.
Throughout the city, civilians and people from the underworld who entered Chuzhou City after the massacre witnessed such a horrific scene and felt a chill in their hearts.
"What happened? What's going on?"
Are all the people in Chuzhou City dead?
So who did they talk to, who did they speak to, and who did they spend more than a month with?
Huge fear exploded in the hearts of the few remaining survivors.
The same thing happened to the delegation. They quickly deduced the truth about the "Three Thousand Miles of Bloody Massacre" based on the existing clues, and then they were filled with surging anger.
They could tolerate the false war reports from the King of Zhenbei, and they could also tolerate the fact that the massacre in the city was done by monsters or the Wushen Cult.
Because Dafeng and these forces are inherently hostile. Today you massacre one of my cities, and tomorrow I will destroy ten of your camps. There will be casualties on both sides, which is understandable on the battlefield, but why did it happen to the King of Zhenbei!
"No, we have to go first." Yang Yan reacted and realized that if the King of Zhenbei successfully swallowed the blood pill and reached the second level, then the next people to be killed would be the members of their delegation.
"Where did Ning Yan go?" asked Censor Liu.
"I don't know. We haven't seen him since last night." Everyone shook their heads.
Although Xu Qian'an was not found, the situation did not wait for anyone, so the delegation, escorted by Yang Yan, began to grope for a way out of the city along the edge of the city wall.
……
Above the sea of clouds.
A figure in white clothes stood in the clouds, overlooking the Chuzhou City below. His face was blurred and his figure seemed to merge with the surrounding clouds. Standing there motionless, it was easy to be ignored. His presence was like his appearance, vague and low-key, as if he was not in this world.
"It's started." Xu Pingfeng said with a smile.
Outside Chuzhou City, on the barren mountain, Russell also laughed.
The Nine-Tailed Fox sat barefoot on a huge rock beside him, staring at Russell with interest and asking, "You called me here, saying you wanted me to watch a play. Where is the play now?"
"Don't be impatient." Russell smirked and looked up at the sky. "This scene suddenly reminded me of a poem from our race that praises the love of children for their parents."
You want to recite poetry at this moment? The Nine-Tailed Fox cursed inwardly, but his expression remained unchanged. Instead, he took over the conversation without letting Russell's words fall to the ground: "This actually piques my interest. I wonder which line it is?"
"The son saw his father was still alive, so he sharpened his knife and stabbed him."
Russell laughed loudly, opened his arms, and endless star power was released from his body.
The originally bright daylight suddenly dimmed. Countless people in Chuzhou, which spanned eight thousand miles of territory, looked up at this miraculous scene - the dazzling sunlight suddenly twisted, and night fell. One hundred thousand stars hung upside down like swords, and a hundred-foot-wide waterfall of starlight hung down from the sky beyond the sky.
Outside the city of Chuzhou, the soldiers who were fighting fiercely and the extraordinary people who were fighting each other all stopped their actions and turned their eyes to this strange scene.
"What happened?" Zhu Jiu stared at the brilliant starry sky with one vertical pupil. He felt endless crisis from it.
Although King Zhenbei was equally curious, he did not show it. He just felt that this scene was extremely appropriate.
In another stick of incense, the blood pill will be refined.
The truce between the three extraordinary people did not affect anything, except for Xu Pingfeng, who was above the clouds, whose expression froze.
He was shocked to find that under the starlight, the sorcerer's shielding secret was ineffective!
And at his feet, on the barren plain, a man in green clothes, with an ordinary appearance, was looking up at him, his mouth slowly cracking into a ferocious arc. "It's you, how nice! This gift really makes me happy!"
