Outside the Black Tortoise Holy Land, a strong wind blew!
Zhong Shan led the Tortoise Snake and stood at the front. Behind them were ten black-robed men, all of whom were wrapped in black robes. There were nine men and one woman. Their faces could not be seen clearly, so it was impossible to tell if they were Zhong Shan's group of 12 people.
Their clothes fluttered in the strong wind, producing a series of flapping noises.
Around Zhong Shan, a large number of Black Tortoise experts were on guard. Some of them even took out their weapons and magic treasures. However, no one dared to act rashly and waited for the arrival of the Honorable.
The arrival of Zhong Shan and the Turtle Snake was like a whirlwind. The news quickly spread to all parts of the Black Tortoise Tribe.
"What? The Turtle Snake? Zhong Shan? Why are they here? "Elder Gui Shenwu was shocked when he heard the news.
"I'm not sure. I'm waiting at the west gate for news from the Honorable!" A Black Tortoise said respectfully.
"Got it!" Turtle Divine Martial left these words behind and walked towards the entrance.
At the gate, Zhong Shan faced the group of Black Tortoises calmly. He was not nervous at all. Instead, he looked at the four huge pillars not far away.
Magnificent, too magnificent!
Each pillar was 100,000 miles thick and was arranged in a square. The two adjacent pillars were a million miles away from each other. They reached into the nine heavens. The vast deterrence made people feel like they were back in the ancient times.
The first-generation Black Tortoise, the first-generation Black Tortoise of the Great Thousand World? This identity showed that this Black Tortoise had lived for a long time. Although he was not very strong, he was definitely older than Hongjun and Pangu.
He sacrificed himself to let Nüwa mend the sky. The first-generation Black Tortoise was also very noble.
Zhong Shan even felt that each pillar was not weaker than a Sage's magic treasure. The four pillars were equivalent to four Sage's magic treasures of the same origin. No wonder they could support the sky.
In the sky at the center of the four pillars, countless demons danced, but they could not fly out of the thin film on the turtle's palm. They bit and rushed down, but they could not come down.
At the center of the Heavenly Pillar, there was a pool of blue flames. The pool was emitting cold flames, causing people to feel fear just by looking at it.
"This is the Sacrificial Pool?" Zhong Shan squinted his eyes and looked at the pool with blue flames.
The Sorrowful Green Silk had said that this was a pool formed by a great array. Inside it was the Nine Yin Demonic Fire, which could burn the body and nourish the soul. It would then push the soul into the Heavenly Demon World as a sacrifice!
The Turtle Snake's expression changed slightly.
"Don't be nervous. Just do as I say. The humiliation of a real man is only for him to soar to the Nine Heavens in the future!" Zhong Shan transmitted his voice softly.
"Yes!" The Turtle-Snake King took a deep breath and calmed down.
Right at this moment, the Black Tortoise Race was in an uproar.
A large number of experts from the Black Tortoise Clan walked over.
The leader was the burly Xuan Tianzong. Behind him were a group of Black Tortoise Elders, including Gui Shenwu.
"Greetings, Sovereign!" All the Black Tortoises said respectfully.
Xuan Tianzong waved his hand and all the Black Tortoises at the door retreated behind Xuan Tianzong.
In the blink of an eye, it became a confrontation between Zhong Shan and the huge group of Black Tortoises.
"Zhong Shan? Why aren't you accompanying your Empress at the Ice God Palace? What are you doing here in the Black Tortoise Sacred Land? "Xuan Tianzong sneered.
Xuan Tianzong was not worried that Zhong Shan would not come because the Sorrowful Green Silk had swallowed the Divine Escape Pill and he had her Soul Lure. For the sake of the Sorrowful Green Silk, Zhong Shan would definitely come. The only thing he was worried about was that the Turtle Snake would not come.
Now that the Turtle Snake was here, although Xuan Tianzong was talking to Zhong Shan, his eyes were fixed on the Turtle Snake.
"The Sacrificial Ceremony is a major event in the world. Zhong Shan also wants to watch the ceremony. Does Xuan Tianzong think that I'm not qualified?" Zhong Shan smiled faintly.
Watch the ceremony? Zhong Shan watch the ceremony? Watch the Sorrowful Green Silk's ceremony?
Xuan Tianzong could not wrap his head around it. Was the Emperor so heartless that he would watch his wife die? No, that shouldn't be right. But why was Zhong Shan doing this?
Xuan Zhiyin hid at the back and looked at the 12 people in front of him. As the think tank of Xuan Tianzong, sometimes he had to think more. Wrapped in black robes?
Xuan Zhiyin seemed to have realized something and immediately sent a voice transmission to Xuan Tianzong, "Sovereign, I'm guessing that the 10 people wrapped in black robes behind Zhong Shan are not the Zu Xian from that day. They are just ordinary people from other places to boost their momentum. Also, according to the information, Zhong Shan is not a heartless person. He must be plotting something."
Plotting something? It was the same as what Xuan Tianzong thought.
At the same time, Xuan Zhiyin provided another guess. The people behind Zhong Shan were not Zu Xian? There were 12 people from that day. This time, only Zhong Shan and the Turtle Snake were here.
Xuan Zhiyin's previous plan was to order the elders to deal with Zhong Shan while he captured the Turtle Snake.
If what he guessed was true, then perhaps he could get the Turtle Snake without waiting for Marquis Cheng to return?
However, Xuan Tianzong did not act rashly. He looked at Zhong Shan and said, "The Sacrificial Ceremony is a major event in the world. As the ruler of a territory in the North Continent, you naturally have the right to attend the ceremony. However, this is a serious matter. The Black Tortoise Tribe has to be careful. Those with unknown identities are not allowed to attend the ceremony and are not allowed to enter the Black Tortoise Holy Land to prevent the ceremony from being ruined. The 10 people behind you are hiding their heads and tails. I suspect that they have other motives. Gui Shenwu, take off their hats! "
Gui Shenwu had no choice but to obey. He reached out to grab the 10 people behind Zhong Shan.
"Hmph!" The Golden Roc snorted coldly behind Zhong Shan.
"Buzz!" The Golden Roc's golden Heavenly Dao soared into the sky.
"Buzz!" "Buzz!" "Buzz!"
Eight more Heavenly Dao soared into the sky. Nine Heavenly Dao were erected behind Zhong Shan, and a powerful pressure pressed down on the other side.
The majestic aura pressed down on the countless Black Tortoises, making them unable to raise their heads.
"Buzz!" "Buzz!"
Behind Xuan Tianzong, the elders of the Black Tortoise Tribe erected their Heavenly Dao and looked at the other side warily.
The two sides faced each other as if a war was about to break out at any moment.
"Xuan Tianzong, what is the meaning of this? Don't you know that they are my subjects? "Zhong Shan said in a deep voice.
Xuan Tianzong's expression changed when he saw the black-robed people erecting their Heavenly Dao. He immediately denied Xuan Zhiyin's guess. What do you mean not all of them are here? Zhong Shan had brought so many Ancestral Immortals with him, and they were all here. Why aren't they here?
"Alright, they are guests from afar. Since they are brought here by Zhong Shan, Gui Shenwu, you don't have to force them!" Xuan Tianzong said in a deep voice.
Gui Shenwu's face twitched. 'I'm forcing them? Am I the one who wants to reveal their true colors? '
Feeling extremely gloomy, Gui Shenwu retracted his hand and walked back.
Zhong Shan waved his hand gently, and the Heavenly Dao of the subjects behind him disappeared. The Heavenly Dao of the Black Tortoise elders also disappeared.
The two sides returned to their original situation. However, Xuan Tianzong had already given up on the idea of making a move. Zhong Shan had a group of experts behind him. Even if the Black Tortoise Tribe fought, it would be a pyrrhic victory. Xuan Tianzong did not want to do something that would cost him 800 lives. He could only go according to plan.
However, Zhong Shan's intentions were getting more and more difficult to figure out. Was he really going to let Shen Qingsi die? Or was he going to save Shen Qingsi at the last moment? Save her? Hmph, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait until then.
"The Black Tortoise Tribe's elders' bloodline has evolved to the fourth generation at most. It seems like Gui Shenwu's bloodline is noble. Which generation are you? Third or second? "Xuan Tianzong suddenly looked at Gui Shenwu and asked.
"Have the ancient rules of the Black Tortoise Tribe changed?" Gui Shenwu asked in a deep voice.
"What did you say?" Xuan Tianzong's expression darkened.
"According to the rules of the Black Tortoise's ancestors, those of lower bloodlines must greet those of higher bloodlines. You're only a sixth-generation bloodline. You know that my bloodline is nobler than yours. Why don't you bow to me?" Gui Shenwu suddenly said arrogantly.
With Zhong Shan as his backing, Gui Shenwu was naturally not afraid of offending Xuan Tianzong. Moreover, this was Zhong Shan's plan.
Zhong Shan did not say anything and let Gui Shenwu face Xuan Tianzong.
"Bow to you? Hahahaha! "Xuan Tianzong's eyes were cold.
The Black Tortoise elders raised their eyebrows and looked at Gui Shenwu angrily. Although Gui Shenwu's bloodline was nobler than theirs, he was not the ruler of this place. So what if an outsider's bloodline was nobler?
"It seems like the rules of the Black Tortoise's ancestors are no longer important to you! In this world, only the Black Tortoise Tribe is the true inheritor of ancient times, "Gui Shenwu said disdainfully.
Xuan Tianzong looked at Gui Shenwu coldly and finally sneered. "So, you still abide by the rules of the Black Tortoise's ancestors?"
"That's right. The rules of the Black Tortoise's ancestors are the foundation of my tribe!" Gui Shenwu said solemnly.
"Then why don't you bow to me?" Xuan Tianzong shouted.
"Bow to you? What right do you have to defeat me? You're a sixth-generation bloodline. I don't think you have the right to evolve your bloodline to my level! "Gui Shenwu said coldly.
Gui Shenwu and Xuan Tianzong were at loggerheads.
Zhong Shan and the rest did not say anything. The elders of the Black Tortoise Tribe did not say anything either. Naturally, no one else had the right to say anything. Xuan Zhiyin felt that something was wrong, but he did not know what it was. He wanted to stop Xuan Tianzong, but Xuan Tianzong ignored him.
"Since you abide by the rules of the Black Tortoise's ancestors, then my bloodline is nobler than yours. Will you bow to me or not?" Xuan Tianzong shouted coldly.
"Nobler than me? Dream on. If you're nobler than me, I'll bow to you no matter where and when. Unfortunately, you won't be able to do it! "Gui Shenwu shook his head in disdain.
"If my bloodline is nobler than yours, I'll make you bow to me on both knees!" Xuan Tianzong shouted coldly.
Zhong Shan narrowed his eyes. It was as if he had gotten what he wanted.
"Alright!" Gui Shenwu said disdainfully.
Xuan Tianzong revealed a victorious smile. Then, his body trembled slightly. Suddenly, a huge shadow appeared behind him. It was a hundred feet tall, and it was the shadow of a Black Tortoise.
As soon as the Black Tortoise's shadow appeared, an ancient aura pressed down on Gui Shenwu. The terrifying aura pressed down on their souls, and it even caused the four pillars in the distance to tremble slightly.
A shadow? A powerful shadow? Looking at the shadow, Zhong Shan's pupils shrank. The Black Tortoise's four legs had shrunk, leaving only its head outside. It had shrunk its four legs?
"The aura of a first-generation bloodline? How is that possible? "Gui Shenwu pointed at the Black Tortoise's shadow and exclaimed.
"Whoosh!" The Black Tortoise's shadow suddenly disappeared.
"Hahahaha, kneel!" Xuan Tianzong laughed loudly. (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to come to qidian.com to vote. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
