Liu Ming sat on the chair for a moment and sorted out his thoughts before he got up and returned to his room.
With a gentle wave of his hand, a black barrier spread out.
"Hehe, you are rather alert and know to deploy a soundproof barrier." A black shadow flashed as Mo Tian appeared beside Liu Ming and spoke with a mischievous smile.
Liu Ming was already used to Mo Tian's occasional ridicule. He walked to the side and sat down before he asked in an indifferent tone.
"Senior Mo Tian, you seem to have some understanding of the Great Shuo Dynasty?"
"Hehe … Great Shuo Dynasty … those fellows' methods of changing their names aren't bad." Mo Tian revealed a mocking expression.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed, but he didn't interrupt.
"Liu Ming kid, do you know the surname of the current Central Imperial Dynasty?" Mo Tian asked Liu Ming.
"It should be Huangfu, right? Today in the grand hall, the Liu Clan Head mentioned the two imperial clan's Mystic Opening cultivators that will be arriving in two days. They are called Huangfu Liushui and Huangfu Qi. But what does this have to do with the Great Shuo Dynasty? "Liu Ming was startled and asked curiously.
"Demons might have a longer lifespan than humans and can live for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. But no matter which continent it is, as time elapses, many things will change. Even the dynasties that rule the continent will be the same. "Mo Tian revealed a rare expression of reminiscence.
"What do you mean?" When Liu Ming heard this, his expression changed slightly.
"A few tens of thousands of years ago, the one that ruled the Ten Thousand Demon Continent wasn't the current Central Imperial Dynasty. It was a dynasty called the North Wind Dynasty. However, after the North Wind Dynasty experienced tens of thousands of years of change, it naturally became corrupted. It caused the entire Ten Thousand Demon Continent to be seething with resentment. All the aristocratic clans were extremely dissatisfied, but they didn't dare to voice it out. Later on, the ancestor of the Central Imperial Dynasty, Huangfu Ye, raised the flag of rebellion. After spending thousands of years, he finally overthrew the North Wind Dynasty in one fell swoop and established the current Central Imperial Dynasty. "Mo Tian spoke with fervor and assurance as he brought the scene from hundreds of thousands of years ago to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming's expression changed as he listened to these secrets. He seemed to have thought of something.
"Senior Mo Tian, are you trying to say that the Great Shuo Empire that suddenly appeared was created by the descendants of the previous Empire hundreds of thousands of years ago?" Seeing that Mo Tian didn't continue speaking, Liu Ming's eyes flickered as he asked.
"I might not be certain, but I reckon that it shouldn't be far from the mark." Mo Tian sneered.
"If it really is the intention of the previous dynasty to restore their power, then they must have already made extremely thorough preparations. This battle will probably be somewhat dangerous." Liu Ming stood up and his face darkened.
"You don't have to worry too much about this. The Central Dynasty must've already discovered the restoration of the North Wind Dynasty. They'll quickly mobilize their troops to kill these rebels. The current Demon Sovereign of the Central Dynasty is also a wise individual. The royal clan's strength is unfathomable, and it won't be easy for the North Wind Dynasty to completely overthrow it. "Mo Tian spoke indifferently.
When Liu Ming heard the statement, his expression became better. He sat back on the chair and asked again.
"Senior seems to be rather familiar with the matters of the Central Dynasty. You even know the history of the dynasty hundreds of thousands of years ago. I've read through plenty of books regarding the history of the Ten Thousand Demon Continent, but there wasn't any mention of the North Wind Dynasty. "
"That's because your time in the Ten Thousand Demon Continent is too short, and you have yet to reach the Mystic Opening Realm. It's natural that you don't understand matters of our level. To an almighty in the Mystic Opening Realm, as long as they wish for it, there aren't many things in this world that they can't do. Furthermore, it's just understanding a hidden history. "Mo Tian frowned slightly and spoke casually.
"So that's the case. I've learned something." Liu Ming's brows raised slightly.
Mo Tian's expression might look calm when he spoke, but Liu Ming could still detect a trace of abnormal fluctuation in his tone. However, he didn't expose it.
"In short, if a war really breaks out in two days, you and the five clan heads should try not to be in the limelight. Just obediently follow behind the army, and there shouldn't be any problems. I have recovered some of my strength now, and I will help you when it's necessary. "After Mo Tian spoke, he turned into a wisp of black light and flew back into Liu Ming's body.
Liu Ming was silent for a moment. He was thinking about all the information he had obtained today and analyzing the various situations.
If Mo Tian's guess was right, the battle of Gloomy Rong City would definitely be an extremely difficult battle. With his strength, he might not be able to guarantee his safety.
However, he couldn't escape at the last minute either. That would be blatantly disobeying the orders of the Central Dynasty and would offend a colossus like the Liu Clan.
At that time, not only him, but the entire Qing Clan might be implicated and be annihilated.
Even if he took a step back, even if he was lucky enough to escape and conceal his identity again, his hard work for the past 100 years would be in vain. It was unknown when he would be able to collect the materials for Mo Tian to reforge his body.
He might not know the purpose of Mo Tian's reforging his body, but since Mo Tian had made an oath and promised to leave his divine soul, then he had to complete this matter as soon as possible.
In addition, the mysterious bubble in his body might not be able to absorb his magic power, and the artifact spirit kept the promise and didn't disturb him for the past 100 years. However, Liu Ming always felt that it was like a fishbone stuck in his throat. God knew if the artifact spirit was recovering its strength, and he didn't know what would happen when the time came.
Liu Ming pondered for a long time and couldn't think of a good solution. He let out a long breath, walked back to the secret room, and sat down cross-legged.
A moment later, a grayish-white light appeared on his body. A palm-sized black and white stone tablet appeared in his hand with a flash. Five small ancient rune patterns appeared on the stone tablet.
After more than 100 years of sacrificial refining, Liu Ming had mastered most of the power of the Celestial Tablet. Of course, this was also related to Mo Tian's guidance.
Now, the power exerted by the Celestial Tablet had far exceeded his natal magic treasure, Mountain River Pearl.
Liu Ming chanted and made a gesture with both hands, which fell on the Celestial Tablet. The light of the Celestial Tablet gradually brightened.
After a long time, the tablet body trembled slightly, and the five magic treasure emblems flashed. The Illusive Demonic Pupil on the Celestial Tablet stretched out two big hands, one black and one white, and stabbed into the void.
There was a tremor in the void, and the black and white big hands slowly opened a space crack. Endless space storms could be seen in the crack.
Liu Ming's face was a little red at the moment, and his body was shining with black light. He had obviously used all his magic power.
But at this moment, his body flashed with black light, and his face showed a trace of pain. The light of the Celestial Tablet suddenly dimmed, and the space crack trembled a few times before it slowly closed.
Liu Ming shook his head in disappointment and took a big breath. He then took out an elixir and consumed it, and his face looked a little better.
He just used the Celestial Tablet, the grotto-heaven magic treasure, to try to break the void.
In this world, the fastest escape method was to use the power of the law of space to break the void and escape.
In the upcoming battle that was highly likely to occur, if he had the ability to tear open a spatial rift and escape, his chances of survival would undoubtedly be much higher.
However, it was generally possible to comprehend the law of space and break the void only after the cultivation reached the Mystic Understanding Realm.
In addition, if he had a grotto-heaven magic treasure or a profound spiritual treasure that contained the power of the law of space, it was not impossible.
According to Mo Tian, in the Celestial Tablet, there was a trace of the power of the law of space, but his magic power was slightly insufficient.
After adjusting his breath for a long time, he opened his eyes and shook his head with a bitter smile. He didn't continue to try. After putting away the tablet, he meditated quietly.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
At noon on this day, in the sky above Yourong City, led by Liu Huifeng, the patriarch of the Liu Family, all the patriarchs of the major families gathered here. In the corner, Liu Ming, Legg and others stood together as if they were waiting for someone.
In these two days, there were another seven or eight families that rushed to Yourong City.
Now, the number of Celestial Phenomenon Demons in Yourong City had reached more than 50 people.
And beside Liu Huifeng stood a gray-haired old man in linen robe. From the aura he emitted, he was also in the Mystic Understanding Realm. A pair of triangular eyes occasionally flashed with a trace of cold light, giving people a somewhat cunning feeling.
Liu Ming looked at the old man in linen robe a few times.
In these few days, he also heard that in addition to Liu Huifeng and the Liu Family Head, there was another Mystic Understanding Elder in Yourong City. It must be this person.
However, this person seemed to be hiding his whereabouts. In these few days, he had never appeared in front of everyone.
The eyes of the Family Heads swept over the old man in linen robe from time to time. The old man in linen robe had a blank expression as if he didn't feel anything.
As time slowly passed, two hours quietly passed.
However, everyone present was very patient and didn't show any impatience or dissatisfaction.
At this moment, there was a faint whistling sound from the horizon. In the distant sky, two purple lights appeared.
The spirit of Liu Ming and the others shook. The purple lights were incomparably fast and arrived in front of them in a few flashes. An enormous spiritual pressure came crashing down. The faces of the Family Heads with slightly weaker cultivations couldn't help but change as they took a step back.
With a flash of light, two purple-robed figures appeared in front of everyone.
Liu Ming's expression changed as he looked up. Of the two people that came, one was a rather tall and robust man. He was half a head taller than the tallest person present, Legg.
The robust man wore a long purple robe. His facial features could be considered regular. On his cheeks and forehead, there were several purple demon marks that looked like earthworms, making him look rather mighty.
The other was an abnormally handsome young man. His appearance was scholarly and his clothes fluttered in the wind, making him look like a jade tree in the wind.
The purple demon marks on his face were slightly lesser, but on his forehead, there was a rather complicated purple rune mark.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed. The mark on this purple-robed youth's forehead was somewhat similar to the True Devil Mark that he inherited from Mo Tian.
