Chapter 113: The Corpse of the Venerable
Gu Yi and others walked out of Broken Blade City, but they did not return to Xueyue Kingdom.
Instead, they crossed the Broken Blade Tianya, which was full of Broken Blade Spear Points, and headed all the way towards the Kingdom of Moyue.
Moyue Kingdom is a country as vast as Xueyue Kingdom.
But the difference is that the royal family in Moyue dominates the world and holds most of the cultivation resources in their hands.
Therefore, there are no sects in Moyue Kingdom, only some martial arts families and martial arts academies.
The latter is under the direct control of the royal family, and the former is also surrendered to the royal family.
All geniuses from the Moyue Kingdom will join the martial arts academy to practice and enter the hands of the Moyue royal family.
This is also the reason why the comprehensive national strength of Moyue Kingdom exceeds that of Xueyue Kingdom.
It’s just that in terms of Tianwu Realm strong men, Moyue Kingdom and Xueyue Kingdom are similar, with only one or two Tianwu Realm strong men.
Therefore, Moyue Kingdom has never been able to annex Xueyue Kingdom, and the two countries can only start a war around Broken Blade Tianya.
The reason why Xueyue Kingdom established Xueyue Holy Court was actually to imitate the practices of the royal family of Moyue Kingdom.
This will slowly weaken the strength of the major sects until they are destroyed, and truly unify the Xueyue Kingdom.
——Martial arts are respected in Jiuxiao Continent, and the major sects are like princes, ruling one area and having extremely high autonomy.
For example, the taxes collected from the cities within the sect’s territory are given to the sect.
So after seeing the death of many Xuanwu Realm experts from Haoyue Sect and Ice and Snow Villa, the sect's strength dropped drastically.
King Xue Yue immediately sent troops to destroy the two major sects and brought the territories they previously controlled under his direct jurisdiction.
The crime is naturally what Duan Tianlang said in Yunhai Sect in the past, that he did not obey the king's order.
......
After entering the Moyue Kingdom, Guyi and the others briefly identified the location, and then headed straight for the Zijin Mountains in the north of the Moyue Kingdom.
There is currently no war between the Moyue Kingdom and the Xueyue Kingdom, so the border guards between the two sides are not too strict.
Of course, even if the war is tense and the border is full of spies, with Gu Yi's strength, it will be easy to rush through.
The goal of Guyi's trip to Mayue Kingdom was a martial arts family named Zifu in the Zijin Mountains.
Zi Mansion is one of the largest family forces in the northern part of Moyue Kingdom, and is very famous throughout the country.
This family existed thousands of years ago, even older than the history of Moyue.
It's a pity that Zifu gradually declined and its strength was weak. In order to survive, it had no choice but to submit to the royal family of Moyue Kingdom.
But even if it declines, there are still strong men in the Xuanwu Realm in Zi Mansion.
The Xuanwu Realm strong men are strong figures in the imperial cities of Mo Yue Kingdom and Xueyue Kingdom. If they are placed in this remote place, they will naturally dominate one side.
In the past years, Zi Mansion has contributed a lot to the war between Mo Yue Kingdom and Xueyue Kingdom in the north.
I don’t know how many Xueyue Kingdom soldiers and civilians died under Zi Mansion’s army, and the two sides had deep grudges.
The Zijin Mountains where the Zi Mansion is located is thousands of miles away from Broken Blade City. Guyi and his men rode on red-blooded horses and rode all the way for two days before arriving at the Zijin Mountains.
Liu Fei, dressed in red and handsome, looked at the majestic mountains ahead and asked Guyi:
"Xiao Yi, are the relics of the Venerable you mentioned here?"< br>
Gu Yi nodded: "Yes, in the Zifu Forbidden Land on the Zijin Mountains, this venerable relic has existed for countless years. The power in the relic can only be passed down for the last time."
The "venerable" mentioned by Guyi and Yi refers to a person who is strong in the realm of martial arts. He is extremely powerful. Burning mountains and boiling seas, destroying cities and annihilating countries is just a matter of course for such beings.
In the snowy region where Xueyue Kingdom and Moyue Kingdom are located, there are not even many Tianwu realms, let alone high-ranking venerables.
The Zunwu Realm is a legend in Xueyue Kingdom.
It is hard for Liu Fei to imagine that the most powerful person in the Zi Mansion, who is only in the Xuanwu realm, actually has the remains left behind by a venerable person after his death.
And according to what Guyi said, this venerable is not an ordinary venerable. He has extraordinary means and is best at soul power.
His strength during his lifetime is estimated to have reached the seventh level of the Martial Realm or above, and he can be called the Lord.
The inheritance left by such a being can cultivate a strong man in the Tianwu Realm.
But the result is that Zi Mansion only has one Xuanwu Realm level one.
"Exalted Martial Realm..." Xiao Wu's eyes shone: "This is probably more powerful than the gods in Douluo World."
After the battle with Yunhai Sect, Xiao Wu has seen The Xuanwu Realm experts who came out of Jiuxiao Continent were much more powerful than the titled Douluo in Douluo World.
The first and second levels of the Xuanwu Realm are more powerful than the ‘Beast God’, the head of the ferocious beasts in the core area of Douluo Continent.
It is rumored that the beast god's strength has reached the level of a demigod, and he is only one god away from becoming a true god.
It can be seen from this that the gods of Douluo World are at the high level of Xuanwu Realm or Tianwu Realm.
The Zunwu Realm is a higher realm than the Tianwu Realm, and it is definitely not comparable to those gods in Douluo Continent.
"Let's go up to Zijin Mountain." Gu Yi's eyes flashed and he rode on the mountain road. Gu Qingcheng, Liu Fei and the other girls followed him and headed towards the gate of Zifu Mountain.
After running in the mountains for nearly an hour, Guyi and the others finally arrived at Zi Mansion.
"Who is coming?" At the Zifu Mountain Gate, more than a dozen guards at the ninth and eighth levels of the Qi Martial Realm stood up and blocked Gu Yi and the others with weapons.
Gu Yi released some aura, and the bone-chilling murderous aura made the Zifu guards' faces instantly turn pale, and they stepped back.
“Gu Yi from Xueyue Kingdom and Broken Blade City came here to visit Zi Mansion.”
The guard’s expression changed and he became nervous.
A native of Xueyue? Or from Broken Blade City?
The Moyue Kingdom and the Xueyue Kingdom are hostile. Those who dare to enter the Moyue Kingdom alone and dare to declare their family status must be powerful, and they are not something that little minions like them can deal with.
The guard quickly took out a signal flare and sounded it to notify the people in Zi Mansion.
Gu Yi looked calm and did not stop the guards from moving. He rode a red blood horse and slowly walked through the Zifu Mountain Gate and stepped into the inner area of Zifu.
The Zi Mansion has been inherited for thousands of years, with countless clans and branches. Therefore, their clan occupies a very large area, with palaces standing in all directions.
Gu Yi and the others walked not far in the palace when they were surrounded by figures from all directions.
The leader was a purple-haired old man with a solemn and majestic face.
He is the current head of Zi Mansion, Zi Ying.
Beside Ziying, there are two boys and girls aged 17 or 18. These are Ziying's two children, Ziqiong and Zixia.
Ziying narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Gu Yi, who was riding a red-blooded BMW and carrying a bloody spear on his back.
“You are the red-blooded young master of Xueyue Kingdom?”
The Northland where Zi Mansion is located is close to Xueyue Kingdom, and has been at war with Broken Blade City for many years. Naturally, they have been paying attention to the intelligence of Broken Blade City and Xueyue Kingdom.
Gu Yi rose up a few months ago and became one of the nine great princes of Xueyue Kingdom. He was also the general of Broken Blade City and a disciple of Divine Arrow Liu Canglan.
Zi Mansion naturally also collected information about Gu Yi and knew his appearance and characteristics.
In conjunction with the Shanmen guards, he reported that these people came from Xueyue Kingdom's Broken Blade City.
So Ziying recognized Gu Yi's identity the first time she saw him.
"Not bad." Gu Yi nodded slightly.
Zi Ying's heart trembled, and he quickly used a secret method to inform his uncle, who was also the only Xuanwu Realm ancestor in Zi Mansion.
This Scarlet-blooded Young Master can fight against Young Master Dapeng of Xueyue Kingdom. His proper Xuanwu Realm combat power is not something that he, a ninth level of Spiritual Martial Realm, can handle.
——Zi Mansion has not yet collected the news about the recent battle with Yunhaizong.
After doing all this, Ziying felt a little relieved and stared at Gu Yi: "I don't know how many people came to my Zifu. What do you mean?"
Gu Yi chuckled and said: "Gu heard that there is a forbidden place in Zi Mansion, which has been passed down for thousands of years. There are countless mysteries in it. I am yearning for it and want to enter it."
Purple Ying's face turned cold when he heard this. .
The forbidden land is the foundation of their Zifu. It is related to their martial soul, and its importance is self-evident.
For thousands of years, only direct men could enter the forbidden area of the Purple Mansion with their wives.
Even women from direct lineage and branch tribesmen cannot set foot.
The most important thing is that there is only one chance to open this forbidden land, and Ziying wants to leave it to his children.
How can outsiders be allowed in?
Zi Ying's eyes were cold, "Young Master Scarlet Blood is joking. The forbidden area is the secret realm of my Zi Mansion. Non-direct descendants of Zi Mansion are not allowed to enter."
Gu Yi was not impressed by Zi Ying's rejection. Without any surprise, he turned his right hand and a green elixir appeared in his palm, exuding a faint fragrance of elixir.
“This is the Xuanji Pill. Gu used it as a condition to enter the Zifu forbidden area. How about it?”
"Xuanji Pill?" Ziying's eyes shrank, and Ziqiong and Zixia beside him exclaimed, their eyes full of excitement and desire.
The fragrance and appearance of this elixir really resemble the Xuanji elixir recorded in the book... Ziying shouted in her heart.
Xuanji Dan, a low-grade Xuandan, can help warriors at the ninth level of the Lingwu Realm transform the true energy in their bodies into true essence, achieve the unity of essence, energy and spirit, thereby breaking through to the realm of Xuanwu.
Its effect is equivalent to the ‘Broken King Pill’ in Dou Qi Continent that increases the peak of Dou Ling and gives you a slight chance of being promoted to Dou King.
This is the elixir that many warriors who are stuck at the peak of the spiritual martial realm dream of. In the eyes of these people, the value of Xuanji Pill exceeds that of other pills that are higher than it.
Low-grade Xuandan, placed in Dou Qi Continent, is almost at the level of fifth-grade primary and intermediate elixirs.
Gu Yi's normal alchemy level was at the fourth-grade intermediate level.
After using [Enlightenment], it can be greatly improved and the Xuanji Pill can be refined.
The reason why Gu Yi refined the Xuanji Pill was to increase the number of Xuanwu Realm experts in Yunhai Sect.
After the Yunhaizong battle, Gu Yi saw the shortcomings of the Yunhaizong's top combat power.
Several of the inner sect elders of Yunhai Sect are at the ninth level of the Lingwu Realm, only one step away from the Xuanwu Realm.
With the Xuanji Pill, they can break through to the Xuanwu realm.
As a thousand-year-old sect, Yunhai Sect still has the prescription of Xuanji Dan. This prescription can be regarded as the most widely circulated among the several prescriptions.
Gu Yi spent a lot of Yunhai Sect's medicinal materials, opened a cauldron to refine five furnaces of elixirs, and obtained eleven Xuanji elixirs.
Seven of them were left in Yunhai Sect, allowing Nangong Ling and Beilao to choose who to take.
Gu Yi himself kept four.
Now he took out one to trade with Zi Mansion.
Ziying’s heart was beating fast, and her eyes were full of desire and greed.
Ziying has been trapped in the ninth level of the Lingwu Realm for decades and has been unable to break through.
If he had the Xuanji Pill, he would be 90% sure that he could break through to the Xuanwu realm.
By then, their Zi Mansion will have two Xuanwu Realm powerhouses, and their strength will be greatly increased.
Should I use the opportunity to enter the forbidden area in exchange for the Xuanji Pill...
Ziying struggled in his heart, he was very aware of the talents of his two children.
Even if they enter the forbidden area, accept the baptism of inheritance, and make the martial spirit more suitable for themselves, it will not be easy to break through to the Xuanwu realm.
After all, the last person to enter the forbidden area was Ziying himself.
He has not been trapped in the ninth level of the Lingwu Realm for many years.
Instead of fighting for an uncertain future, it is better to take advantage of the immediate benefits.
However, it is not his turn to decide on the qualifications to enter the forbidden area.
“I didn’t expect my little friend to have such a pill.”
A sound like rolling thunder sounded around, and a figure came quickly from the palace. He was the ancestor of the first level Xuanwu Realm of Zi Mansion.
The ancestor of Zifu looked solemn and stared at Gu Yi.
The ancestor of Zi Mansion had a sharp eye, and he could see at a glance that there was more to Gu Yi than what Zi Ying secretly said.
Gu Yi was sitting on the red-blooded horse, but his whole body seemed to be integrated into the heaven and earth, with a vague aura.
His realm has obviously reached the unity of nature and man.
In addition, he felt a strong sense of crisis from Gu Yi, and there was a constant tingling sensation between his eyebrows, as if if he made a move, he would be shot to death by Gu Yi.
The martial soul of the Zifu people is called ‘Purple Soul’. This is a bloodline martial soul obtained from the Venerable, and it involves the soul.
So the ancestor of Zifu believed in his sixth sense.
Gu Yi's strength is probably even more terrifying than what Zi Ying said, far more than the first level of Xuanwu Realm.
He should not be Gu Yi's opponent.
Gu Yi's goal for this trip was very clear, which was to come to the forbidden land of their Zi Mansion.
If Gu Yi doesn’t agree to the deal, I’m afraid he will force his way into the forbidden area.
Their Zi Mansion may be destroyed by then...
Instead of doing this, it is better to agree to Gu Yi and exchange for the Xuanji Pill for the Zi Mansion to cultivate new Xuanwu Realm experts. .
The ancestor of Zi Mansion naturally thought of things that Zi Ying could think of.
After thinking about it for a moment, he made a decision in his mind: "Little friend Gu, the forbidden land is the biggest opportunity for our Zifu. It contains great fortune and has the inheritance of the ancient strong men. One Xuanji Pill is not enough..."
Gu Yi understood clearly.
The implication of the Zifu ancestor's words is obvious, this means more money.
Compared to the venerable inheritance in the forbidden area of Zi Mansion, which only had one or two Xuanji Pills, Gu Yi was too lazy to bargain with the ancestor of Zi Mansion.
Najie's luster flashed, and another green pill appeared in Gu Yi's hand, "How about two Xuanji pills?"
"That's enough, that's enough." The ancestor of Zi Mansion smiled broadly.
Two Xuanji Pills can make the two generations of the Zi Mansion have Xuanwu Realm experts, allowing the Zi Mansion to prosper for hundreds of more years.
This is better than the forbidden land where there is only one last chance for baptism.
"Little friend, come with me." Under Ziying's fiery gaze, the ancestor of Zifu put away the Xuanji Pill, and then he took Gu Yi and his party to the palace on the top of Zifu Mountain.
That is where the forbidden area is located, and it is also the place where the Zifu ancestor worship ceremony is held.
The ancestor of the Zi Mansion explained to Guyi: "Little friend Gu, this is the entrance to the forbidden land. If you want to open the forbidden land, we, the direct descendants of the Zi Mansion, need to sacrifice their blood to our ancestors."
Gu Yi nodded slightly and said this. But in the chest.
The ancestor of Zifu signaled to Ziqiong and Zixia, and they immediately came to the statue, cut their fingers and dripped blood into the two small holes on the chest of the statue.
Boom!
A trembling sound sounded, and the chest of the tall statue slowly opened, turning into a door, leading to the depths of the palace.
The ancestor of Zifu said: "By the way, little friend, if you want to enter the forbidden land, you must be in love, otherwise you will not be baptized by the power of the forbidden land. I wonder who you want to enter it with?"
Gu Yi, who is familiar with the plot, naturally knows this restriction. This is the condition set by the remnant soul of the venerable in the forbidden area.
Long before coming to Zi Mansion, Gu Yi had selected the person who would go in with him.
"Qing Lin, come in with me."
"Okay, Master Yi." Qing Lin nodded and followed Gu Yi into the stone gate.
Behind them, Liu Fei and Xiao Wu looked a little depressed, but they didn't say much.
On the way here, Gu Yi told them some things about the relics of the Venerable, and Qing Lin was indeed more suitable to enter than them.
The face of Gu Qingcheng next to them was still cold, without much change.
When she could only enter the forbidden area after hearing the words 'the one she loves', her eyes fluctuated slightly.
……
In the forbidden area, there was silence, and a faint purple light illuminated the space.
Gu Yi grabbed Qing Lin's hand and walked in the direction of the purple light.
Soon, the purple light became brighter and brighter, illuminating the surroundings extremely clearly. In front of the two of them, a purple lake appeared.
The liquid in this lake is turbulent and churning, like pythons roaring and roaring, never stopping.
At the other end of the lake is a palace with carved railings and jade walls and bright lights.
One could vaguely see two corpses, one large and one small, in the palace.
Gu Yi stared at the purple lake in front of him. The blood martial spirit was summoned, and the blood surged around his body.
Except for the different color, his blood martial soul is strikingly the same as the purple lake.
This purple lake is exactly a lake of blood!
Gu Yi's eyes were solemn. This was a lake formed by the blood of a snake demon venerable. It was astonishingly powerful and contained violent bloodline power.
If you get close to it, it will directly erode the human body and merge into the blood.
The Zifu people’s ‘Purple Soul’ martial spirit was obtained precisely because their ancestors were corroded by the power of this bloodline. It can also be regarded as a kind of bloodline martial spirit.
It’s just that this kind of bloodline martial spirit is very weak, far inferior to those who directly inherit the bloodline martial spirit.
This is also the reason why Gu Yi chose Qing Lin to come in.
If Xiao Wu and Liu Fei enter it, their rabbit martial souls and arrow martial arts souls may be replaced by the blood power of this snake demon, turning them into the 'Purple Soul' martial arts of the Zifu people. soul.
But Qing Lin is different. Her green snake three-flowered pupils are naturally restraining snakes, and her martial spirit is originally a snake martial spirit.
According to Gu Yi's speculation, 60 to 70% of the bloodline power of this snake demon lord may not replace her snake martial spirit, and may even enhance the origin of her martial spirit.
What's more, even if Qinglin's martial spirit is replaced, it won't matter.
After all, her true cultivation foundation is the Blue Snake and Three Flower Pupils, so the martial spirit is not too important to her.
Unlike Xiao Wu and Liu Fei, one is the incarnation of a soul beast, and her martial spirit is herself; the other has been practicing archery since she was a child, and her whole body is mainly based on the arrow martial spirit.
Once they are replaced, it will be a stretch, and the new spirit may not be suitable for them.
