Once again, Lan Ling tried to comprehend Ertian The Great's Wordless Heavenly Tome, but it was to no avail.
With the construction of the Tower of the Gods and Demons, the time for the northern expedition was getting shorter and shorter. Once the Tower of the Gods and Demons was built in the southern part of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and Lan Ling didn't go on the northern expedition, it would be a sign of weakness. This meant that morale would drop, and the power of faith would decrease.
Moreover, the entire northern wilderness was in full swing with the construction of the Tower of the Gods and Demons, and this speed couldn't be slowed down.
However, Lan Ling could clearly feel that with their current strength, the defensive line of the Hundred Thousand Mountains would be impossible to take down.
Whether it was him, Lan Ling, or the several trump card legions of the Balrog Empire, once they crossed the Hundred Thousand Mountains, their strength would be greatly suppressed, and their strength would be greatly weakened.
How could they break out of this predicament?
In fact, Lan Ling already had a vague answer in his heart. However, this path seemed to be courting death, even more so than entering the Netherworld to search for the Demon Emperor's inheritance.
At this moment, Lan Ling felt a familiar power enter the hall in the sky. A moment later, a figure fell into his arms.
It was Ashita Liren. She hugged Lan Ling and cried silently.
Obviously, she had already received news of Jiang Shang's death.
Jiang Shang was his master, and also equivalent to his father.
"Is it Ji Yingsuo?" Ashita Liren asked.
Lan Ling nodded and said, "It should be."
Ashita Liren said, "I must kill her with my own hands, I must!"
At this moment, Gou Li suddenly said, "Master, there's a human in the outer seas requesting to see Your Majesty. He says he's your old friend."
Lan Ling was stunned and said, "Bring him here!"
Then, Lan Ling set up a special energy barrier in the hall to prevent humans from entering and being suppressed to death by the Demon Emperor's aura.
A few hours later, a human walked into the palace in the sky and kowtowed to Lan Ling. "Commoner Bi Xiao pays respect to His Majesty Demon Emperor. Long live His Majesty!"
Sword Venerable Bi Xiao, long time no see!
It had been more than ten years!
In the past, Aslo ravaged Bi Xiao's female disciple to death, forcing him to leave Tianshui City to seek revenge against Aslo. From then on, there was almost no news of Bi Xiao.
Now, Sword Venerable Bi Xiao appeared before Lan Ling once again.
Lan Ling said, "Your Excellency Sword Venerable, you're already old!"
"I don't dare to mention the words' Honorable Swordsman 'again. I'm really a frog in a well. I'm making a fool of myself." Bi Xiao said, "I am indeed old, but Your Majesty's elegance is greater than before, I am not too moved."
"Get up." Lan Ling said.
Sword Venerable Bi Xiao got up and said after a moment of silence, "I heard that His Majesty Jiang Shang is dead. I'm not too sad, so I made up my mind to come pay a visit to Your Majesty."
Letting out a long sigh, Sword Venerable Bi Xiao said, "When His Majesty Jiang Shang was around, I couldn't help but slack off. I couldn't help but follow his lead. Since he didn't do anything, I also didn't do anything. Because he was the pillar of humanity, no matter what happened, he would always be there to stop it. So I pretended not to know a lot of things. But now that he's dead, I feel that I can't hide anymore. I should stand up bravely. "
Lan Ling said, "Please speak."
Sword Venerable Bi Xiao said, "I'm not afraid of Your Majesty laughing at me. All my life, I've been pursuing the supreme path of martial arts. I've always believed that His Majesty Dragon Emperor isn't dead. I've even been pursuing His Majesty Dragon Emperor's power inheritance. Similarly, His Majesty Jiang Shang has also been pursuing the Dragon Emperor's traces all his life. The only difference is that he wants to save human civilization and uphold justice, while I want supreme power. Even though we're doing the same thing, our goals and ideals are worlds apart. "
Lan Ling didn't say anything and waved his hand. Ashita Liren stepped forward and served Sword Venerable Bi Xiao a cup of tea.
Sword Venerable Bi Xiao bowed to express his gratitude. His hands trembled as he took the cup and drank it. He continued, "But I took the liberty to pay a visit to His Majesty Jiang Shang. One reason was for the martial arts competition, because I felt that my attainment in the path of the sword was very high, and I didn't fear anyone in the world. In the end, of course, I realized how ridiculous I was. I was so ashamed that I wanted to die. Even arrogance can't describe my stupidity. From now on, whenever I hear the two words' Sword Venerable ', I want to dig a hole in the ground so that I can crawl into it. "
Sword Venerable Bi Xiao had once challenged Jiang Shang to a martial arts competition, but no one in the world knew about it.
"Secondly, I wanted to test His Majesty Jiang Shang. I wanted to know how much he knew about the Dragon Emperor's secret." Bi Xiao said, "I was hesitant, but His Majesty Jiang Shang was frank and shared everything he knew with me. So, I was even more ashamed. Then, on that day, we had a full conversation. "
"At that time, I suggested that if I wanted to find traces of the Dragon Emperor, the 'Nine Disaster Swords' might be a breakthrough, because I realized that after performing the first stage of the 'Nine Disaster Swords', it actually formed the word 'hill'." Bi Xiao said, "Of course, the reason why I felt that the 'Nine Disaster Swords' was a breakthrough was because the Dragon Temple had sealed it. Moreover, this sword formation was very mysterious, but it was meaningless in battle. So, it was probably hiding some kind of secret. At that time, I was already obsessed, as long as I found a clue, I would chase after it crazily. Unexpectedly, after His Majesty Jiang Shang heard my thoughts, she gave the same opinion. She thought that this sword technique might be a clue left behind by the Dragon Emperor. So, we agreed to continue looking for clues of the Dragon Emperor, and we exchanged what we needed. "
In fact, Bi Xiao was not the only one who was curious about the 'Nine Disaster Swords', Lan Ling was also surprised. It was too strange at that time. After he finished learning the first stage of the 'Nine Disaster Swords', he was shocked to find that the sword tips formed thousands of dots in the air, and finally formed the word 'hill'. It really made him suspicious.
"After that, His Majesty Jiang Shang looked for me twice, because he found the second and third stages of the 'Nine Disaster Swords'." Bi Xiao continued, "However, at that time, I had already focused on other clues, so I did not pay much attention to the 'Nine Disaster Swords'. The Dragon Temple also sent someone to look for me and gave me some warnings. For the sake of the thousands of disciples in the villa, I gave up on pursuing the clues of the Dragon Emperor. In fact, it was indeed because I had lost hope in this matter, and I did not find anything after searching for tens of years. The Dragon Temple did not kill me, probably because there were too many people like me who were looking for the Dragon Emperor's whereabouts. Ignorant people like me, who were sitting in a well and looking at the sky, posed no threat, and I really did not get any results. Until not long ago, when I heard the name 'Lan Ling', I was instantly horrified! "
One could imagine Bi Xiao's shock at that time. Søren had learned swordsmanship from him before, and it was already very shocking that this disciple of his was the Demon Emperor. Moreover, his real name was actually Lan Ling, which completely matched with the 'Nine Disaster Swords'.
"The funny thing is, after I found out about this clue, I hid even more and completely lived in seclusion in the villa, not contacting anyone outside, for fear of being killed." Bi Xiao said, "Until a few months ago, Her Majesty Jiang Shang looked for me again. On the surface, it was to invite me and the entire villa to the Dongli Kingdom to recruit talents. In reality, it was to protect me, because the Dragon Temple had begun to kill anyone who was looking for the Dragon Emperor's whereabouts. They would rather kill three thousand wrongly than let one go. After all the disciples were transferred to the Dongli Kingdom, Her Majesty Jiang Shang immediately arranged for me to go out to the sea, to an uninhabited island to avoid the Dragon Temple's pursuit. "
"Not long ago, I found out that Her Majesty Jiang Shang was dead, and all my disciples in the Dongli Kingdom were also slaughtered." Venerable Sword Bi Xiao raised his head in pain, holding back his tears and said, "At that time, I deeply felt that I was unbearable. I couldn't hide anymore, I couldn't hide anymore, so I boldly came to see Her Majesty. However, I came too late. I'm really a selfish and cowardly person who was afraid of death. When I heard about Her Majesty Jiang Shang's death, I was in so much pain that I wanted to die. "
Then, Venerable Sword Bi Xiao stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I've tried to understand the second and third sword techniques of the 《Nine Swords of Disaster》, but I didn't obtain any information. Maybe I'm too stupid, or maybe I'm selfish and greedy, so I don't deserve the wisdom to understand. Now, I'll demonstrate the second and third sword techniques of this sword technique to Your Majesty. Maybe this can be considered as fulfilling Her Majesty Jiang Shang's last wish. I can feel his struggle and pain, he wants to serve you, but he can't. "
Then, Venerable Sword Bi Xiao began to demonstrate the second and third sword techniques of the 《Nine Swords of Disaster》. He hoped that Lan Ling could understand the information about the Dragon Emperor.
…
Today was a big day for the Dragon Temple.
Because the Dragon Emperor's puppet was finally completed, this meant that in the Dragon Plane, the Dragon Temple had a peerless expert who was almost as strong as Lan Ling.
Although Lan Ling had the complete Nothingness Demonic Bloodline, and was even more powerful than the Emperor Of Doom, he had the power to rule over the entire plane. However, his personal cultivation base was still completely derived from Emperor Doom, and he had not truly broken through to the Overlord Tier.
Secondly, he would be weakened if he entered the Dragon Plane, but this Dragon Emperor puppet, although it was only a puppet, had completely inherited the energy heart of the Dragon Emperor. Its cultivation would be strengthened in the Dragon Plane, and under such circumstances, the two of them might be on par in terms of strength.
The Temple of the Sky convened a top-secret meeting of the highest echelon.
There were only fourteen people participating: the Sky Priest, the Sky Inquisitor, and Tendoki.
There was only one topic in the entire top-secret meeting!
Regarding the tomb of the Dragon Emperor, Jiang Shang knew quite a lot, but did he reveal it to Lan Ling?
According to Ji Yingsuo, he did not, because he was killed by Ji Yingsuo as soon as he revealed this thought.
Next, a new topic arose. Should they transfer the Dragon's Nothingness Bloodline in the tomb of the Dragon Emperor?
Was the tomb of the Dragon Emperor safe enough? Was it necessary to transfer it to the Temple of the Sky? Once it was transferred to the Temple of the Sky, how big of a risk would it be?
