The sun was high up in the sky, and the sky was clear. On the peak of the mountains, there was dead silence around the altar.
All kinds of expressions froze on their faces, as if they were funny masks.
Chuo Long was dumbfounded. To him, losing his physical body was an unbearable loss. Even if it was just a fragile mortal body, it was still crucial to his cultivation. Moreover, it was the body of a True Dragon that he had painstakingly cultivated.
He did not leave his physical body here without any preparation. Instead, he had prepared all kinds of defensive measures. Even if Li Qingshan suddenly attacked him, he would not be injured in the slightest. However, he had neglected the Sky Climbing Vine that could pierce through the void.
It pierced through all his defenses inch by inch, draining all his blood essence bit by bit.
The green and tender vine weaved to form a woman's face. She said, "Your Majesty, you're back! Look at your expression now. It's so funny! Did something bad happen to you? Hehehehe … "
"She didn't leave!"
Gu Yanying was slightly surprised. After doing such a thing, not only did she not run away, she even dared to provoke Chuo Long. It was as if she was going to face Chuo Long's fury alone.
"That's Qian Rongzhi. Interesting indeed!"
Luohou Xiaoming was very interested. Taking advantage of the fact that Chuo Long was in Jasper Jade Palace and had lost his connection to his physical body, it was not a big deal for him to set him up. To dare to provoke him like this, one must have extraordinary courage.
In the cultivation world, there was a strict hierarchy. Those who were inferior would instinctively fear those who were superior. Even if they were undefeatable, they would still tremble in fear. And she should know very well that one Sky Climbing Vine was not enough to protect her life.
A sharp laughter filled with malice startled Chuo Long. With a flash of golden light, it was as sharp as a sword and cut through his face. He shouted angrily, "Qian Rongzhi. What did you do? "
As if to answer his question, there were exclamations around the altar.
The former Great Xia Emperor felt a pain in his foot. It was so slight that it was hard to notice. However, it pierced through his protective artifact and strong body. It penetrated deep into his soul and approached his nascent soul.
In an instant, he was like a balloon that had been pierced by a needle. His essence, Qi, and spirit surged out uncontrollably from the needle hole. He felt an unprecedented terror.
As far as the eye could see, thousands of vines drilled out from the ground. They stretched out, twisted, entangled, and penetrated like a group of snakes dancing wildly. Among them were many horrified faces.
It turned out that the vines had already covered the ground around the Temple of Heaven. This was no longer a solemn place for worshiping the heavens, but a terrible trap.
To a certain extent, Chuo Long was the one who had set this trap.
Chu Tian was born with the Sky Climbing Vine, and when it was taken away by Qian Rongzhi, it only grew into a "bonsai" after more than twenty years.
Of course, it was because most of the pure spiritual energy extracted from the Mortal Realm was used by him for cultivation. However, it also showed how much resources the Sky-Climbing Vine needed. When one's cultivation reached a certain level, it would even seem a little useless.
If not for the 5000 years of preparation of the Great Xia Dynasty, it would have taken almost all the resources of the country to irrigate it. Even after another thousand years, it wouldn't be able to grow to such an extent. In fact, it might even stagnate. No matter how pure the extracted spiritual energy was, it was still limited.
This strange grass that could penetrate the boundaries and connect to the world, once it grew up, it would definitely not be a safe, harmless flower for people to enjoy.
Fresh blood splattered, and the Shadow Cloud Crane King resolutely cut off its legs. With a crane cry, it spread its wings and soared into the sky. Just as it flew into the air, a vine pierced through the void. It stabbed into his chest.
King Donglu activated the long sword at his waist, and the sharp light was like a clear pool of water. One look and it was obvious that it was not an ordinary magic treasure. The sword slashed at the vine, but the blade smoothly passed through it, not hurting it at all.
The existence of the Sky Climbing Vine was between real and fake. Chuo Long had to rely on his Yang Spirit Evil Qi to cut through it. Cultivators, however, did not have such a method. Even a thin vine could not be torn apart, nor could it be cut. Swords and magic treasures could not touch it, and supernatural powers and spells could not harm it. Once those powerful cultivators fell into its "claws and teeth", they would never be able to escape.
Unknowingly, the vines had already covered the sky, wanting to capture all the people and demons participating in the worshiping.
Chuo Long actually did not care about the life and death of these people. Even his own descendants were separated by many generations. He focused all his attention on the nine cauldrons, which were the key to this worshiping. Even if he lost his physical body, the Yang Spirit could still complete the last step of the worshiping.
However, the cruel reality did not leave him even the last bit of luck. The pillars of light quickly dimmed, and the vine threads intertwined in the cauldron, already piercing through the body of the cauldron, just for this moment.
The wishes of all living beings gathered along the vine threads towards the main trunk of the Sky Climbing Vine. There was a vague human figure in it, frantically stealing the fruits of victory of this worshiping.
The so-called hearts of all living beings were always used by ambitious people. The mysteries and unpredictability of the human heart far surpassed the will of the heavens.
Chuo Long felt dizzy, and the feeling of "being one with heaven" was gradually leaving him. He deeply felt the feelings of the Banyan Tree King that day: all the plans and schemes had turned into nothing at the moment when they were about to see the light of day.
It was as if he was only one step away from the top of the mountain, but had stepped into an abyss. This strong sense of loss was enough to drive him crazy. Although he did not go crazy, the demons in his heart were burning.
Unwillingness, regret, resentment, sorrow … all kinds of negative emotions came one after another.
"Hehehe, now, I am the Son of Destiny, the master of all living beings! All of you, go to hell! "
The Heaven Climbing Vine was like a twisting, green snake. Qian Rongzhi's mad laughter filled up the entire Dragon's Head mountain. Great cultivators with extraordinary talent, noble members of the imperial family, and Daemon Kings who dominated the world all prostrated themselves beneath her feet, struggling painfully.
Li Qingshan frowned, recalling the scene many years ago. However, at that time, it was just a small hill, but now it was the peak of the entire Nine States. Even the high and mighty Human Emperor had been poisoned by it and suffered heavy losses.
"Bitch, do you think I can't kill you just because you hide in the Sky Climbing Vine?"
Chuo Long roared angrily, and like a knife, he cut open the main trunk of the Sky Climbing Vine. Although the Sky Climbing Vine was terrifying, in the face of a stronger power, it was as weak as a normal plant.
He easily grabbed Qian Rongzhi who was hiding inside, and felt a familiar aura from her body. It was his True Dragon Bloodline. Because he could not digest it, two dragon horns protruded from the top of his head, and his body was covered in scales. However, his eyes, rather than dragon eyes, were more like snake eyes, staring at Chuo Long cruelly.
He became even more furious, and golden light flashed in his eyes.
Her flesh and blood flew everywhere, and in the blink of an eye, only a bloody human figure was left. Many beautiful snakes crawled out of it, looking extremely ugly.
Little Ann was expressionless, and he held the hilt of his sword tightly.
Li Qingshan sighed in his heart. He felt that children were getting harder to understand as they grew up. Although he did not like Qian Rongzhi, he was still a person who could distinguish between kindness and hatred, and would not leave her to die. However, even without the barrier of the Nine States, they could not take her from Chuo Long.
However, her laughter did not stop for a moment. Instead, it became even more joyful, and she urged, "Hurry up, kill me! I have the True Dragon Bloodline, this little injury is nothing. "
Her voice was low, like a snake hissing, "If you kill me, this Sky Climbing Vine will wither, and you will not be able to return to the Human Realm, and you will be strongly rejected by this world. If you kill me, the True Dragon Son of Heaven, you will be regarded as an enemy by the Heavenly Will, and the situation will be even more worrying. You will let Li Qingshan take advantage of it. "
The Sky Climbing Vine played a similar role to the Sky Reaching Ghost Tower, and both could allow existences beyond the limits of this world to come to the Nine States. However, Emperor Li could not leave the Sky Reaching Ghost Tower, while Chuo Long used all kinds of methods and the advantage of being born in this world to almost turn this world into his own garden.
However, Qian Rongzhi was equivalent to replacing Chuo Long to complete the sacrifice and become the "True Son of Heaven." Even if she did not have much power to use, she was still blessed by the Heavenly Will, and killing her would be retribution.
Chuo Long trembled all over. He naturally understood this, and so he did not kill her. On the contrary, his heart was even more depressed than Just Now, and he almost spat out blood.
The demons in his heart became more and more intense, and there were signs of Qi deviation. What was more frightening was that the Heavenly Will began to change, and his power was also suppressed. If this continued, it did not mean that he would explode and die when he fought with Li Qingshan and the others, and his soul would be destroyed.
"How dare a bitch like you swallow my flesh and ruin my great plan. You took mine, give it back to me! "
With a trace of clarity in his mind, he threw his Yang Spirit into Qian Rongzhi's body. As long as he succeeded in taking her body, he would still be the True Dragon Son of Heaven, and all his mistakes would be corrected. (To be continued)
