"Puff!!!"
A long sword with a chilling aura pierced through Zhang Nian's chest.
A mask with a Rakshasa pattern appeared behind Zhang Nian. A cold light flashed across the mask.
"Send the things back first, I'll take care of the rest."
Gao Jianli slowly pulled out the sword from Zhang Nian's body and said calmly.
Kim No-myung did not say anything and turned to leave.
.....
"Puff!!!"
Blood splattered everywhere and a villager slowly fell to the ground.
Gao Jianli walked out of the Zhang Family Village with a torch in his hand. He turned around and the torch in his hand drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed in the Zhang Family Village.
"Boom!!!"
In an instant, flames rose to the sky and the huge Zhang Family Village was engulfed in a sea of fire.
The sea of fire was reflected in Gao Jianli's eyes behind the mask. After confirming that there were no survivors, Gao Jianli turned around and left.
The fire lasted for a long time and only died out when the sky darkened.
The entire Zhang Family Village was in ruins after the fire. Some places were even emitting black smoke from time to time.
.....
Rivertown, Shen Family.
Shenlang stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back and quietly looked at Shen Qing who was carefully watering the flowers in the courtyard.
Shen Qing seemed to have forgotten the unhappiness of that night. Her beautiful face still had a faint sweet smile. She was like a butterfly, shuttling back and forth among the flowers.
Just as Shenlang was admiring Shen Qing's figure, Kim No-myung walked into the courtyard with a cold expression.
"Young Master, the things have been retrieved."
Kim No-myung said respectfully as he came to Shenlang's door.
Shenlang said calmly, "Come in."
"Creak!"
Kim No-myung pushed the door open and walked in. He took out the ancient book wrapped in a brocade and handed it to Shenlang.
Seeing that there were only two to three pages left, Shenlang frowned slightly. There were only two pages left. Could there be anything important left in the book?
However, he still read it carefully. After reading it word by word, he began to read it carefully.
The expression of Shenlang, who had been calm all this time, suddenly changed.
Peng!
Shenlang gently clenched his fist, and the ancient book was instantly reduced to ashes.
Reading the contents of the ancient book, Shenlang's heart was filled with horror.
He did not expect that the origin of this True Dragon Tactics would be so great. If it was just the origin, he would not be so shocked. However, some of the information that came out of it made him think of something bad.
The True Dragon Secret Art was at the peak of the Heaven Realm. It was the cultivation method of the ancient True God, Saint Emperor Guan.
Saint Emperor Guan was also known as the Martial God. During the Primordial Era, Saint Emperor Guan was known as the number one blade that split the heavens and earth apart.
The reason why he was called the number one saber move after the creation of the world was not because he was the first martial artist to cultivate the saber in the Zhenwu Continent, but because his saber was the strongest in ancient times.
Sacred Emperor Guan had fought countless battles in his life. No matter who he faced, he would only use one strike.
With one slash, life and death were decided.
With one slash, life and death were decided.
Divine Emperor Guan had only been defeated once in his life, and that was when he, the Heavenly Sword Master, and the others fought against the Demon Venerables.
Although Sacred Emperor Guan had been defeated, people worshipped him even more. Some people even said that Sacred Emperor Guan was actually the strongest existence among the True Gods.
This was because although Sacred Emperor Guan had only used one strike, it was that strike that cut off one of the Demon Lord's hands.
The Demon Lord was not in the form of a beast, but had transformed into a human.
During the Primordial Era, as long as the Demon Clan reached the Demon Emperor level, they could transform into a human.
Demon Emperors were equivalent to the Immortal Martial Realm and the Fragmentation Realm. There were strong and weak Demon Emperors. As long as one reached the Immortal Martial Realm, they could be called Demon Emperors.
The Primordial Era was brilliant. It could be said that it was the peak of the Zhenwu Continent.
There were many geniuses in the human and Demon Clans. Among them, the ancestors of the twenty-one forces were the geniuses of the Primordial Era. Although they were overshadowed by Sacred Emperor Guan and other True Gods, it was undeniable that the ancestors of the twenty-one forces were also strong.
Sacred Emperor Guan cultivated the True Dragon Art, and his body was very strong. As for how strong it was, no one knew. In any case, people only knew that a Demon Emperor had taken advantage of the fact that Sacred Emperor Guan had no saber to launch a sneak attack.
However, Sacred Emperor Guan had destroyed it with one punch.
Sacred Emperor Guan's saber was called the True Dragon Heaven Slaying Saber.
When the saber was used, a dragon's roar shook the world, and its aura surged.
It was said that when Sacred Emperor Guan had mastered his Saber Dao, he had used the most powerful strike. Although that strike was not as stunning as the one that cut off the Demon Lord's arm, it was not far off.
That strike was the rise of a True God, and it was also the beginning of a legend. That strike had cut off the sun and moon, causing the Zhenwu Continent to sink into darkness for ten years. There was no sun or moon, only darkness.
It was also because of Sacred Emperor Guan's stunning strike that caused great damage to the Demon Lord. In the end, it was suppressed by the Heavenly Sword Master and the others.
At that time, although the Demon Lord was controlled by the Executing Heaven Sword Formation, the Heavenly Sword Master and the others could not defeat the Demon Lord. They could only fight with the Demon Lord. Just as the Demon Lord was about to break the Executing Heaven Sword Formation, Sacred Emperor Guan made his move.
From beginning to end, Sacred Emperor Guan did not make a move. Instead, he stood quietly outside the battlefield and watched the battle.
The Heavenly Sword Master and the others did not say anything because they knew that Sacred Emperor Guan was actually accumulating power.
When Sacred Emperor Guan's power reached its peak, it was time for him to make his move.
If not for the fact that the Heavenly Sword Master and the others were about to be unable to trap the Demon Lord, causing Sacred Emperor Guan's power to not reach its peak and making his move hastily, the Demon Lord would not have just lost an arm. He might have been seriously injured or even killed.
But after that slash, Sacred Emperor Guan fell into a weakened state because of the sublimation of the slash. Then, he was killed by the enraged Demon Lord.
Until his death, Sacred Emperor Guan did not lie down. Instead, he stood there holding the True Dragon Heaven-Slaying Blade and watched the Demon Lord be suppressed.
Later, the corpses of the True Gods were taken away by the Heavenly Sword Master. The True Gods' divine weapons were also sealed by the Heavenly Sword Master.
No one knew where the Heavenly Sword Master took the corpses of the True Gods. This was also one of the ancient mysteries of the Zhenwu Continent.
The ancient book only recorded this much.
According to Shenlang's guess, the ancient book should have recorded the records of all the True Gods of the Zhenwu Continent in ancient times. However, because of the passage of time, the ancient book had been eroded. As for why the three pages of Sacred Emperor Guan had not been eroded, Shenlang could only blame it on the person who made the records. The materials used for the three pages of Sacred Emperor Guan were good.
If it only recorded the deeds of Sacred Emperor Guan, Shenlang might have been shocked. However, it was not to the extent that he was shocked.
In fact, the person who made the records had written down a bold guess on the few pages that recorded Sacred Emperor Guan.
That was that Sacred Emperor Guan might have been one of the four temple lords of the Temple of Eternal Life. If he guessed even more deeply, Sacred Emperor Guan might have been one of the four temple lords of the Temple of Eternal Life, the Celestial Master who had only been heard of but never seen.
However, this was just a guess. No one could prove it. After all, no one dared to talk about Sacred Emperor Guan in ancient times. It was no different from courting death.
After Shenlang finished reading, he thought about a lot of things. The person who made the records' guess was definitely not baseless. Sacred Emperor Guan might really be related to the Temple of Eternal Life. This was because Sacred Emperor Guan's background had not been mentioned from beginning to end.
In this way, there were two possibilities.
One: Sacred Emperor Guan's background was very ordinary. Because of the chaotic war, his family was destroyed. There was no way to verify it.
Two: Sacred Emperor Guan's identity was very mysterious. No one knew his identity.
The first point was very consistent with the situation in ancient times. It was very possible that Sacred Emperor Guan's family was destroyed when he was young. However, if it was the second point, then he had to think deeply.
No one knew how terrifying an organization that could produce the first True God of ancient times was. Perhaps only the other True Gods knew. Unfortunately, even if those True Gods knew, they would not say it out loud.
Which True God did not have secrets?
