At the level of a Saint Emperor, his knowledge and view of the world far exceeded that of an ordinary person. Therefore, the meaning and secrets contained in his every word were astonishing. Ye Kong and the others' cultivation was too low, so they didn't dare to make wild guesses.
The Sacred Pagoda King Beast continued to babble, and Chen Runing translated.
"That battle was very tragic. My big brother's strength was very high. I originally thought that since he was ranked ninth, his strength should be the weakest, but that wasn't the case! Seven of the nine Saint Emperors couldn't even withstand a single blow from my big brother. The only one who could compare to my big brother was the First Saint Emperor! "
Unexpected, unexpected. Ye Kong and the others were shocked once again. They originally thought that Zhan Xiang, who was ranked last, had the weakest cultivation, but they didn't expect him to be so powerful.
"At the end of the battle, the other seven Saint Emperors were all heavily injured, and the huge formation was also destroyed. In the end, the first Saint Emperor lost his left leg, and only then did he finally kill my big brother."
Ye Kong and the others were no longer shocked. There were too many things that shocked them today.
Originally, they were still rather vague about the Saint Emperors mending the heavens. They only knew that the Saint Emperors had done a good deed that was beneficial to the people of the world.
But who knew that there were so many secrets hidden in it, so many conspiracies? In order to kill the Ninth Saint Emperor, the First Saint Emperor made countless arrangements, and with the help of the other seven Saint Emperors, he finally killed the Ninth Saint Emperor.
Outsiders said that the First Saint Emperor did it to make up for the lost leg of a genius, but it turned out that it wasn't the case. He was seriously injured in order to kill Saint Emperor Zhan Xiang!
What kind of monstrous cultivation method did the Ninth Saint Emperor cultivate to make the First Saint Emperor kill him at the cost of his life?
Ye Kong really couldn't think of it, but the rumor that the First Saint Emperor said that he would take anyone who found his leg as his disciple seemed to be true.
At this moment, Zhuang Yu asked, "Senior Pagoda King Beast, it's said that you Pagoda Beasts can't bear to see others die in front of you. Then why didn't you do anything when your big brother died in front of you?"
Zhuang Yu's question was rather direct. The Holy Tower Beast King had been struggling with this for many years. Being asked now was tantamount to opening up its wound. It grumbled loudly and then ran out of the green mountain.
Chen Runing said, "It said that the First Saint Emperor locked it up. The First Saint Emperor was too powerful, and it couldn't resist. It's been very difficult for it all these years."
Seeing the self-blaming tower beast rush into the falling rocks, Zhuang Yu regretted his recklessness and said, "How about we pull it back?"
Ye Kong nodded. "Be careful."
After that, the two of them rushed into the area of falling rocks. They arrived just in time. The Holy Tower King Beast had thick skin and flesh, so it was fine even if it was hit by a few black stones. However, when it charged out, a large number of black shadows emerged from the ground!
These black shadows wanted to kill the pagoda beast from the very beginning. Previously, they had brought Ye Kong and the others here precisely to lure the pagoda beast out. Now that the pagoda beast had taken the initiative to come out, it could be said that it was exactly what they wanted. The black shadows surrounded the pagoda beast, and then more black shadows rushed over.
Ye Kong roared angrily, "A bunch of ghosts and monsters, go and die!" As he roared, the Seven Leaf Saber swept towards the black shadows with a whistling saber light.
Zhuang Yu had also gathered the strength of a hundred people. As he dodged the falling rocks, he followed Ye Kong and made up for his mistakes. He focused on killing the black shadows that had been beaten up by Ye Kong.
Not long after, those black shadows threw out more than ten strands of strange white smoke that looked like small white grass.
The pagoda beast liked the white smoke left behind by the black shadows. It hurriedly pounced over and licked it with its tongue.
However, those black shadows were not easy to deal with. After fighting for a short while, the Holy Tower King Beast was already covered in blood. Ye Kong and Zhuang Yu were also injured.
Raising his head, he saw even more black shadows rushing over from all directions.
"Senior pagoda beast, there's no time. Leave quickly!"
Ye Kong roared and opened up a path with Zhuang Yu. The pagoda beast looked back at the floating white smoke on the ground and licked its tongue. It could only give up and run back with Ye Kong and the others.
The battle outside, however, left Chen Runing alone on the hilltop.
Chen Runing did not care about the situation outside. He looked around the unique mountain top and thought, "The first Sacred Emperor must have known about the relationship between the pagoda beast and Zhan Xiang. However, he did not kill the pagoda beast. This means that the first Sacred Emperor did not care about the pagoda beast's revenge. Of course, the pagoda beast will never have the chance to fight against the first Sacred Emperor. However, could it have the inheritance or treasure left behind by Zhan Xiang? "
Chen Runing was secretly pleasantly surprised. The ninth Sacred Emperor, Zhan Xiang, was very powerful. It was impossible for him to not leave anything behind before he died. Even if it was a jade slip, a treasure, a give up, or even the ninth Sacred Emperor's corpse or hair, if he could obtain them, it would be a huge harvest!
"I definitely cannot miss this opportunity!" Thinking of this, Chen Runing clenched his fists again.
At this moment, the pagoda beast, Ye Kong and the others ran back. The pagoda beast was the last to move, but it was the first to return. Although it was only a Chaos Beast, in terms of strength, it was much stronger than Ye Kong and the others.
Looking at the pagoda beast's wounds, Zhuang Yu took out a large amount of elixirs and said regretfully, "Senior pagoda beast, I really did not think that what I said would have such an impact on you …"
Chen Runing ran up and shouted, "Zhuang Yu, I respect you as a senior. I have tolerated you for a long time. Even if it was an unintentional mistake just now, you are still mentioning that matter. Do you have to be so overboard?"
Let alone Chen Runing, even the other servants could see it clearly. They all criticized, "Zhuang Yu, don't forget that it was senior pagoda beast who saved you. Why do you keep exposing its wounds?"
Zhuang Yu blushed and said awkwardly, "Sorry, I just wanted to apologize …"
"Go, go, go. Treat your wounds." Chen Runing pushed Zhuang Yu away and snatched the elixirs from his hands. Then, he gave the oral one to the Sacred Pagoda Beast and applied the external one to the beast's wounds.
The Sacred Pagoda Beast mumbled, "Don't go out. Those battle souls are very powerful. They will fight to the death if they are not from their race. I will rest for a while."
One had to say that Chen Runing was very good at taking care of Chaos Beasts. Not long after, the pagoda beast lay down on all fours and fell asleep next to Qing Shan.
Ye Kong did not think too much about it. He asked Chen Runing to take care of the pagoda beast and sat down cross-legged with Zhuang Yu.
Zhuang Yu said, "I heard from senior pagoda beast that the black shadows outside are called battle souls. Could they be related to the battle race? Or is it a special creature that the Yishui Cold Court refined to fight against the allied army of the eight Supremes? "
Ye Kong took out a jade slip and looked at it carefully. He said, "I was looking at an old map of the Yishui Cold Court's royal city. If I am not wrong, this area should be the burial place of the deceased seniors of the battle race. It is also the last warehouse of the battle race, and also the last place where the Yishui Cold Court led a large group of people to stop!"
At that moment, there was a Supremacy called Zhang Baoyu among Ye Kong's servants. She could be considered a well-read person. She said, "Master, I have heard of a saying in my memory. The battle race is immortal. I wonder if it is related."
