Chapter 151, Undercurrent(1/2)
The cruel war is still ongoing, and unless Pangu Taoist Fruit is born, the war will never end.
Even if one side wins a great victory, it doesn't make any sense. With Li Mu's understanding of the top powerhouses on both sides, if it really comes to a critical moment, they can do the Blood Sacrifice "Our People".
It is better to die on the battlefield than to die under the unscrupulous strong men. At least there is a day to make a comeback when you are killed by a Hunyuan monk or a saint, it will be much rarer to be resurrected.
...
In the secret land of the dragon clan, the Ancestral Dragon, who had just recovered, looked at the bloody sky and was secretly hurt. The God of Heaven was not doing anything, which made him miss this opportunity perfectly.
There is no way, the time for resurrection is too late, and the cultivation level is restored to the realm of Daluo. Participating in the competition for the holy position is simply to deliver vegetables.
What's more, the current strength of the Dragon Clan is not enough to stand out on the battlefield and seize a saint for him.
It would be fine if it was just like this. As an ancient powerful man, Zulong also had his arrogance. Compared to taking shortcuts to become a saint, he hoped that he could attain Hunyuan.
Whether it is envious or jealous, in the chain of contempt for the strong, the Hunyuan monk really does not look down on the saints who take shortcuts.
Of course, there are no monks who have not attained enlightenment here. Contempt is a monk who has occurred between the same level and has not yet crossed the threshold of Hunyuan, and is not qualified to despise others.
What makes the ancestor dragon most hurt is that even though they know that the dragon clan does not have the strength to participate in the competition for the holy position, they can only bite the bullet and participate. Not only should they participate, but they should also act like they are desperate to participate.
As one of the former overlords, he fell to such a level and suffered a great blow to Zulong.
But there is no way. The prehistoric world is a place where you speak with your strength. The dragon clan is weak now, so you have to keep your low and become a small one.
It is better to actively participate in a war than to be forced to go to the battlefield. The former can also maintain a certain initiative, while the latter is pure cannon fodder.
"Brother, something is wrong. The blood flows like a river in the prehistoric world, and Pangu Dao Fruit has not yet seen any movement, I'm afraid..."
Before Zhulong could finish speaking, Zulong interrupted: "Second brother, blood sacrifice to Pan Ancient Taoist Fruit has actually started since ancient times.
The prehistoric world will burst out once every once in a while, with the frequency of the highest chaotic. Now, I think, I am afraid that these catastrophes are secretly promoted by those who are interested in secret, in order to sacrifice Pan's ancient Taoist fruit."
While speaking, Zulong looked at the direction of Zixiao Palace. This kind of suspicion was not made out of nothing. In the past few tribulations, the ancestor Hongjun played an inauspicious role. If someone deliberately plotted, then Hongjun was the number one suspect.
It makes no sense to guess. Even if it is confirmed that the ancestor Hongjun is the mastermind behind the scenes, the dragon clan still cannot do anything now.
In the final analysis, the prehistoric world is still a world of strong people. As long as the fist is strong enough, there will be no mistakes.
If it were at the peak of the Dragon Clan, Zulong might have been able to mix with the ancestor Hongjun, but now he doesn't even dare to mention this name.
"Brother, we have always been unable to sit still and wait for death!
If there are not enough sacrifices in the future, I will inevitably have to use people to make up the numbers. If there are not enough creatures in the outside world, it will be my turn to be unlucky in the prehistoric world.
It’s okay to have a race in charge of Hunyuan. No matter what, it has some say, and at the least it can protect the race’s torch.
If the enemy takes action, a large clan like my Dragon Clan, it will definitely kill the roots..."
Zhulong said worriedly.
Obviously, he had seen the danger hidden behind him. If he really reached that point, the strong men in the second echelon would have become part of the sacrifice, not to mention taking care of the race.
From a safety perspective, these strong men should run away now. After all, no matter how good Pangu Dao Fruit is, it is not their turn to enjoy it. Instead, it may become a sacrifice at any time.
Unfortunately, they are not only the ancestors of the Dragon Clan, but also their own great ways are closely integrated with the Dragon Clan. The intertwined cause and effect cannot be understood at all.
Otherwise, in ancient times, Zulong would not have sacrificed himself to the Heavenly Dao in order to preserve his race.
After hesitating for a while, Zulong said cruelly: "Prepare a generous gift, let me go to Taihua Mountain to visit the martial arts ancestor."
After getting this unexpected answer, Zhulong said hesitantly: "Brother, I admit that the ancestor of martial arts is indeed a talented person.
Unfortunately, he was born too late. If he was born in ancient times, perhaps the mainstream of the prehistoric world would have become martial arts."
This is the general evaluation of Li Mu by the Emperor Huang, especially the monks of the martial arts lineage, who are even more worried about it.
Especially the various sects use martial arts as the introductory foundation, which is the greatest shame for a group of monks who insist on practicing martial arts.
In the eyes of many martial arts monks, what they practice is the orthodox way, and they cannot accept the reality of Qujujuen under the immortal path of Xuanmen.
After all, martial arts practice can attain the Hunyuan, while immortal cultivation is always at the Hunyuan who first becomes a saint and then attains the Hunyuan.
The dispute over Taoism is always a topic that cannot be forgotten. If the invasion of the demon gods outside the domain attracted firepower and suppressed the internal conflicts in the prehistoric camp, it might be that the chaos of the fairy and martial arts dispute might have been caused.
"Ha ha……"
"Second brother, you're thinking that's bad. If that martial arts ancestor had not been born too late, I would probably not even have the qualifications to enter now.
For other saints, Hunyuan, we can only take out real benefits to calculate chips. But that martial arts ancestor is different. Not only is he born too late, but he also has a shallow foundation in the human race.
What he lacks most now is not magical powers or treasures, but some hidden ancient secrets.
These things are exactly the advantages of my dragon clan. When it comes to collecting information, I am afraid that no race in the entire prehistoric world can compare to us.
These materials are useless to ordinary monks, but they are different to Hunyuan strong men. Especially at this critical moment, these secrets can affect their decisions.
Of course, these are not the key points. Just these can at most impress the ancestor of martial arts, and it is still unknown whether they can provide protection for us.
What really made me determined was the strength of the ancestor of martial arts. Although he was the last one to prove the truth in the prehistoric world, his strength was second only to the ancestor of Taoism.
In addition to the apparent identity of the ancestor of martial arts, there is another identity that is blood..."
When the words came to his mouth, Zulong suddenly swallowed again. The innate magical power suddenly showed his warning, and if he continued, he would be discovered.
However, this not only did not dispel Zulong's idea of going to Taihua Mountain, but instead became more and more determined.
If he had not been born with his natural talent and magical powers, he accidentally discovered that the ancestor of martial arts and the Blood Killing Taoist Lord was a secret of the same person, and he would not have thought of seeking protection.
After just spitting out one word, Zhulong still understood what the Ancestral Dragon wanted to express. The demon gods imposed outside the domain were imposed by the prehistoric world, and there were very few powerful people starting with the word "blood".
If the Ancestral Dragon is so afraid, the flow of the Blood Sea and the Styx will obviously be eliminated, and the only one left is the boss of the Six Hunyuan Alliance, the Blood Killing Daozun.
If it weren't for knowing his brother, Zhulong would have thought he was joking. The ancestor of martial arts and the blood-killing Taoist Master were the same person, which was simply a big deal of the world.
However, if this news is true, then the ancestor of martial arts will really have the strength to protect the dragon clan. Even if the entire clan cannot cover it, it is not difficult to preserve the race.
The most important thing is to have such a big boss who can quickly reincarnate and start over even after receiving a boxed lunch.
After digesting for a while, Zhulong said slowly: "Brother, should you bring Guang'er with you? Before the ancestor of martial arts proved the truth, he was in the honeymoon period of the human and dragon clan alliance, and they had a relationship."
I have to admit that the Dragon Clan’s strategy of making friends is still very valuable. Before I knew it, I gained a lot of potential stocks.
If it were at this moment, no matter how many treasures the dragon clan took out, it would only be a transaction and would not become friends.
But the era of the Three Emperors was different. Li Mu was just an ordinary little monk of the human race. It was still difficult to refuse when facing the rich dragon friends.
How deep is this friendship mixed with interests? It remains to be verified. At least there are certain treatments for friends who drink and eat.
Perhaps it cannot play a decisive role, at least it avoids the embarrassment of not being able to enter the door. After all, this world is full of smart people. The dragon clan realized the danger and began to look for a way out. Other races were not idle.
If you cast a wide net, you may not be able to harvest fish, but if you don’t cast a net, you will definitely not have fish. With more people visiting, the threshold will naturally be higher.
"good!"
"It seems that Guanger has done a good job over the years, and the previous investment has not been in vain. These networks of personal connections can help their lives at critical moments."
Zulong said affirmatively.
But he obviously didn't know that Ao Guang had already regretted it at this moment. He did make friends with Li Mu back then, but it was because he had a great influence on the Human Emperor, so he did it by the way.
As a rich rich man, it is indeed easy for the dragon clan to make friends, but most of them just try it out and only bet on a few potential stocks will be heavily.
For example: The Human Emperor Xuanyuan received strong support from the Dragon Clan. Not only did he give people supplies, but he also put down his old overlords and concluded a far-reaching "Human Dragon Covenant".
There is no doubt that this is the most successful strategic venture capital of the Dragon Clan. Although there have been many twists and turns in the middle, this covenant still affects the prehistoric situation.
Unfortunately, compared to Li Mu who missed it, this is not worth mentioning. Investing in the only Hunyuan monk in the human race is better than simply investing in a human emperor.
Although the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are the leaders of the human race, when it comes to true speaking, Li Mu, the Hunyuan monk, has a great influence at this moment.
Of course, this cannot be blamed for underestimating people. Li Mu's rise is too fast, and before the dragon clan can react, he becomes a powerful force.
There is a huge gap between timely help and icing on the cake. If you miss the best investment opportunity, your relationship will stop with ordinary friends in the future.
...
The dragon clan was acting and other prehistoric races that were aware of the danger were also preparing for the way forward. Regardless of the small races, they had no room for struggle and could not get along even if they wanted to find a backer.
Among the prehistoric clans, only the human race and the witch clan who can keep their energy in peace are the only ones with the Hunyuan strong men. Even the powerful demon clans are very nervous.
The reason is very simple. It is true that Nuwa is the emperor of the demon clan, but the relationship between her and the demon clan is not as close as the outside world imagines.
This is a historical legacy. The four emperors of the demon clan co-founded the demon clan, but the last one in power was Di Jun and Taiyi.
The external saying is: Emperor Xi and Emperor Wa idle clouds and wild cranes, and do not like to mix things with common things. However, the Fengqi Mountain lineage in the past was also the main force of the demon clan.
In the early stages of entrepreneurship, Fuxi and Nuwa also made great efforts for the demon clan, and were by no means just the name "Emperor".
Even when Nuwa proved the truth and became a saint, Fuxi was always busy with the affairs of the demon clan and did not truly escape from the center of power.
However, in the battle with the witch clan, the demon clan of Fengqi Mountain suffered heavy losses, and even the leader Fuxi received a box lunch.
What is not important behind this is that the direct lineage of Emperor Wa lost all the losses in the Lich War, and the remaining demon clan powers and Nuwa are not closely related.
This was revealed in the last battle between the human demons. Even though the palms and backs of the hands were flesh, watching the demon clan defeat and not even comforting afterwards was enough to prove their status in Nuwa's heart.
Nuwa can be without them, but they cannot lose the backing of Nuwa. If they do not have this tiger skin, they will not be sure to survive the chaos that follows.
The most important thing is that another spiritual leader of the demon clan, who is also the second-ranked figure of the demon clan, Kunpeng, known as the demon master, mysteriously disappeared not long ago.
Whether to run away from the prehistoric world to avoid disaster or be unfortunately killed, this question is yet to be concluded.
However, there are two suspects in Kunpeng's disappearance: Empress Pingxin transformed by Houtu and Li Mu, the ancestor of martial arts.
To be continued...
