Northern Wilderness, Heaven Song City.
Roar — —
Roar — —
At the foot of Scarlet Mountain, an army of ferocious beasts covered hundreds of miles of land. They completely surrounded Scarlet Mountain.
The path leading to the mountain peak was also crowded with ferocious beasts. Ferocious beasts were squeezed off the cliff from time to time and turned into minced meat.
In the sky, some Rank Four Dragon Beasts, as well as countless Dragon Beasts that were good at flying, had gathered in the sky above Sky Song City. They were constantly attacking the Great City Barrier Formation, erupting with continuous explosions that resounded through the sky.
The Poison Flood Dragon Tribe, Blood Flood Dragon Tribe, Fire Flood Dragon Tribe, Golden Flood Dragon Tribe, Winged Serpent Tribe, Dragon Eagle Tribe and countless other powerful tribes. Occasionally, one or two young True Dragon Tribe would appear. They were so powerful that they covered the sky and covered the earth. They suppressed the Northern Wilderness in an unstoppable manner. In just a dozen days, they had occupied more than half of the Northern Wilderness and destroyed countless cities.
Today, Heaven Song City had become an isolated city. There were no traces of humans within a radius of six thousand miles.
On top of the battle fortress at the city gate of Heaven Song City, Lin Xuan's Yudao Clone and the higher-ups of the Divine Lotus Path stood orderly. They all looked at the tide of ferocious beasts around them. Everyone's face was filled with worry.
"Path Master, there are not many primordial stones left in the city. The Great City Barrier Formation can only last for ten more days. We should make plans early," Yan Hui said worriedly.
Li Qiushui, Jing Wushang, Tie Lie, Jing Lan, Dun Fei, Chi Wufeng and the others heard this and looked at Lin Xuan. They seemed to be waiting for him to make a decision.
Lin Xuan asked indifferently, "Did Wu Huan send back any news?"
Yan Hui said, "No."
Lin Xuan frowned slightly. He felt a little troubled.
When he defeated the Zombie Alliance's sub-alliance, he opened a space crack that led to the Otherworld under the Zombie Alliance. At that time, he did not have the intention to develop in the Otherworld, so he did not explore it.
In recent years, the Divine Lotus Path's situation had worsened. He had sent Wu Huan, thirty zombie path experts, and a hundred divine guards to enter that unknown world through the spatial rift.
But for some reason, even after two years, there was still no news from Wu Huan.
In Lin Xuan's opinion, Wu Huan and the others were most likely dead.
Now that the Divine Lotus Road was facing a critical situation, staying in the Northern Wilderness would only lead to death. If they retreated to the interior, the outcome would not be any better.
Now, there were only two paths in front of him. He could either join the Imperial Dao Slaves or go into exile in the other world.
However, if he sided with the Imperial Dao Slave, then he would probably lose his freedom in the future. Even the Imperial Dao Slave had to decide what Grand Dao he cultivated, and such a life was absolutely not something that Lin Xuan wanted.
And if he were to be exiled to another world, it wouldn't be easy.
In the True Martial Domain, there were about seven or eight spatial rifts that led to the Bright Void World. However, these stable spatial rifts were all controlled by the superpowers, and ordinary forces could not touch them.
As for some unstable spatial rifts, they were constantly changing and were very dangerous. The slightest carelessness could lead to eternal damnation.
Of course, he could also move his subordinates away through the Kunlun Temple.
However, he had not yet gained a firm foothold in the Kunlun Temple. If he had to settle hundreds of thousands of Divine Lotus Road's elites, it would be easy for him to be targeted. He did not want to take this path unless he had no other choice.
Actually, there was another path.
Lin Xuan pondered for a long time before instructing Li Qiushui, "Qiushui, go and tell Lin Tieying that I want to meet the Lin Family's Patriarch."
"Yes, Master." Li Qiushui obeyed and left.
At this moment, a divine guard walked over and bowed respectfully, "Sect Master, Old General Mu is holding a banquet at the Scarlet Fairy Restaurant in the city. He invites you to attend."
"Oh?" Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows, "Who else did Master invite?"
The divine guard said, "Old General Mu brought a few unfamiliar martial artists with him. I have not investigated their identities."
"Understood."
Lin Xuan said indifferently.
In the past, Mu Jianfeng would go directly to his residence or the Divine Lotus Road's headquarters if he wanted to meet him. This time, he chose the Scarlet Fairy Restaurant in the city. He was afraid that it would not be a good banquet!
Lin Xuan glanced at the people behind him and said, "Jing Lan will follow me to the banquet. The rest of you can leave. As for what will happen in the future, I will give you an explanation within three days. "
"Yes!"
Everyone responded in unison and left with complicated feelings.
Lin Xuan brought Jing Lan and flew to the Scarlet Fairy Restaurant in the city.
The Scarlet Fairy Restaurant was a high-end restaurant that opened five years ago. The owner behind it was very mysterious. Even the Divine Lotus Road could not find out who he was.
However, the Scarlet Fairy Restaurant operated as usual and never violated any rules. The Divine Lotus Road allowed it to develop.
Lin Xuan had been here a few times and was familiar with the place.
He followed the waiter to the third floor of the Scarlet Fairy Restaurant and soon saw Mu Jianfeng. At the same time, he also saw a few familiar faces.
Among them were Mu Qingxue, Zhuo Bufan, Shen Yukun, and another handsome and elegant young man.
When Lin Xuan saw these people, his eyebrows indiscernibly raised as he secretly raised his guard.
Especially when he saw Mu Qingxue here, he had a bad feeling.
His original body had planned to go to the Mu Family to meet Mu Qingxue. However, he did not expect that Mu Qingxue would come to the Northern Wilderness and was with the people of the Imperial Path Slaves.
Mu Qingxue looked at him with a bit of gentleness in her eyes. She quietly blinked her beautiful eyes with an inexplicable meaning.
As for Zhuo Bufan and Shen Yukun, they looked at Lin Xuan with some hostility. Especially Shen Yukun, the resentment and coldness in his eyes were like that of a poisonous snake.
As for the elegant man at the end, he looked like a teacher. On the surface, he looked righteous, but his eyes were full of wisdom. He looked at Lin Xuan and Jing Lan with a scrutinizing look. Occasionally, there was a flash of light in his eyes, which made people unable to look at him directly.
When Mu Jianfeng saw Lin Xuan come in, he got up and said with a smile, "Lin Xuan, you're finally here. Let me introduce a few friends to you. Well, there's no need to introduce Xue.
This is Zhuo Bufan, the protector of the mountain.
This is Shen Yukun, the Crown Prince of the Dajian Dynasty and also the protector of the mountain.
This is Mr. Ning, the wise man of the mountain. They are all here for you today. They all want to know you, the martial arts genius. "
"Teacher, you're so considerate. Lin Xuan is just a small figure. I don't deserve your love. "
Lin Xuan smiled and nodded to everyone. Then he sat down opposite Mu Qingxue.
Mu Jianfeng's introduction was very rough, but Lin Xuan also knew that the so-called "mountain" referred to the Imperial Dao Slaves.
The Imperial Dao Slaves was a nickname given to this force in the martial arts world.
In fact, the people of the Imperial Dao Slaves all called themselves mountain people. As for which mountain, perhaps no one knew. Even if someone knew, they wouldn't dare to say it, because those who dared to say the name of that mountain would be punished by heaven.
Everyone sat in their respective seats, and the distance between them was not close.
Mu Qingxue picked up the teacup. Under the cover of drinking tea, she quietly transmitted a message, "Lin Xuan, be careful of Mr. Ning. He is the think tank of the Imperial Dao Slaves. This is just a doppelganger. No matter what you plan to do in the future, you'd better agree to their request today. Otherwise, they might do something to you. "
Lin Xuan's expression didn't change. He wanted to ask Mu Qingxue some things, but he felt that his secret sound transmission technique wasn't good enough. It might be discovered by others, so he gave up for the time being.
After Mu Jianfeng finished his introduction, he sat down with an unfathomable smile on his face. He silently drank his wine, as if he didn't plan to speak again.
At this time, Shen Yukun picked up his wine cup and sneered, "Lin Xuan, some people's paths get wider and wider, while others get narrower and narrower. You went against the flow and brought disaster to the world. In the end, you ended up in this situation today. I wonder if you ever regret it when you're alone in the middle of the night?"
Lin Xuan smiled faintly and said, "Brother Shen, you're being a little rude. If this Lin didn't go against the flow, how could you become the Crown Prince of the dynasty and have the chance to rule the world? "
"Hmph, I, Shen Yukun, am aiming for the Martial Dao. I don't care about this little bit of power. I might as well tell you the truth. If you weren't still useful, I would definitely get rid of you to avenge the past!" Shen Yukun snorted with resentment.
"Hahahaha!"
Lin Xuan laughed and said, "Brother Shen is joking. Back then, your cultivation was higher than mine, but you were still beaten to a pulp by me. Now, your cultivation is lower than mine. I really don't know where your confidence comes from!"
"You!"
Shen Yukun's expression became angry. He suddenly stood up and said in a low voice, "Lin Xuan! You may have won against me for a while, but you may not win against me for a lifetime! After four years, this Shen feels that I have improved and wanted to ask you for advice! Do you dare to accept my challenge?! "
Lin Xuan sat still and swirled his wine cup. He smiled and said, "Unfortunately, you came at the wrong time. My original body is at a critical moment in seclusion. Otherwise, I would definitely satisfy you."
"Hmph!"
Shen Yukun snorted and sat back down angrily.
Four years ago, he chased after Lin Xuan but was defeated by Lin Xuan instead. Lin Xuan even snatched away the Shen family's treasure, the Sky Shaking Rod. This matter had always been a great humiliation to him and he was usually too ashamed to mention it.
In these few years, he led the Dajian Dynasty's army and conquered countless cities. He honed his battle skills and plundered resources at the same time. The speed of his improvement was extremely fast.
He had now reached the peak of the mid-level Heavenly Transformation Stage. At the same time, he cultivated a powerful spirit art. It could be said that his strength had skyrocketed.
This time, he came to the Northern Wilderness to exert pressure on Lin Xuan on behalf of the imperial slave. On the other hand, he wanted to get back his pride and take back the Sky Shaking Rod.
Unfortunately, he was facing Lin Xuan's clone and it was not easy for him to make a move.
At this moment, Zhuo Bufan smiled proudly and said, "Lin Xuan, the situation in the Northern Wilderness is very serious now. The Divine Lotus Path is also in a very bad situation. You are a smart person. You should understand that other than joining us, you have no other choice.
If you are willing to join us, we can support you to establish a dynasty and help you to gather all the martial artists in the world to come to the Northern Wilderness to fight against the Mutated Tribes together. This will prevent you and your Divine Lotus from being destroyed. "
Lin Xuan said indifferently, "It's not impossible to join you. I just don't know what price I have to pay for this."
Zhuo Bufan said, "You don't have to pay any price. We only have two requests for you. One is to leave a soul seal in the mountain. The other is to abandon your original cultivation and focus on cultivating the imperial path! Don't worry, we'll provide you with enough resources. It'll be enough for you to recover your strength within a month, and you'll become even stronger. "
"Sounds like a good idea."
Lin Xuan nodded and looked like he was thinking.
However, he snorted in his heart. Whether it was leaving a soul seal in the hands of an imperial slave or abandoning his original cultivation, he could not accept it!
If he left a soul seal, his life would be completely in the hands of others in the future. He would be no different from a slave. At most, he would become a high-level slave.
