Xiao Yang was tall and straight, with delicate features. His entire body was shrouded in a faint green glow.
When he spoke, there was a bitter smile on his face.
He rubbed his nose out of habit, as if he didn't see the strange looks the other Mountain Chieftains were giving him.
"Hmph, what a scheming fellow. You're obviously saying that it's unfair. That Wudi is bullying you?
"Since you want to be fair, it's simple.
"I won't take advantage of you. Three days later, you will fight with Wudi. He will suppress his Realm to the same level as yours. If you can withstand three of his moves, then …"
"Then Wudi will admit defeat, and the Nine Mountains Celestial Seal will be yours. What do you think?"
The Third Mountain Lord and the others were all shrewd people who had lived for countless years. How could they not understand the meaning behind Xiao Yang's words at this moment?
He immediately waved his hand, snorted, and made his request.
When the other Mountain Lords heard this, they all had different expressions and emotions.
As the youngest Junior Brother of the Nine Mountains, Xiao Yang was highly regarded by the Second Mountain Lord. Although he had only been in the Nine Mountains for twenty years, his cultivation was not to be underestimated.
He had also learned all of the Second Mountain Lord's skills.
Gu Wudi was the publicly recognized Daoist of the Nine Mountains and the Third Mountain Lord's proud disciple.
Except for a few disciples who had cultivated for a long time, the others were not his match at all.
Now, Gu Wudi's cultivation was already at the Supreme Stage.
Xiao Yang was only at the Saint Stage. The difference between the two could be described as the difference between heaven and earth. If Gu Wudi wanted to, he could even crush Xiao Yang with a finger.
"A three-move agreement?"
When the Second Mountain Lord heard this, his furrowed brows relaxed. He thought about it for a moment, then nodded.
However, he still asked Xiao Yang, who was beside him, "What do you think of the Third Mountain Lord's request? Can you accept it? "
Hearing this, Xiao Yang smiled and said, "Since the Third Mountain Master has said so, how could this disciple refuse? Although I'm not as talented as Senior Brother Wudi, I'm still confident in myself. "
As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but reveal the vitality and confidence of a young man.
This was also his goal. If he really fought with Gu Wudi, how could he be a match for him?
When the Mountain Lords saw this, they all nodded inwardly. They felt that if Xiao Yang was given more time, his future achievements would not be lower than Gu Wudi's.
"Alright. If that's the case, then let's meet at the Second Mountain's plaza in three days."
The Third Mountain Master coldly harrumphed. Then, he did not linger. His figure blurred as he disappeared from the hall.
When the other Mountain Masters saw this, they also bid farewell to the Second Mountain Master and planned to leave. As for the matter of sealing off the mountain, they had not yet made a decision.
Right now, the most important thing was to decide the ownership of the Nine Mountains Immortal Seal.
The distance between each of the nine mountains was a million miles, and between them was a vast sea of stars.
However, with their cultivation, it only took them a short while to return to their original mountain range.
Soon, the hall quietened down. Only the Second Mountain Master and Xiao Yang were left.
"Actually, you didn't have to say anything just now. As long as I continued to suppress them, the Third Mountain Lord wouldn't be able to do anything to me."
"Right now, the Nine Mountains Immortal Seal is in my hands. If we were to fight, he would not be a match for me."
A warm smile appeared on the Second Mountain Master's face as he spoke to Xiao Yang.
"Your disciple doesn't want to make things difficult for you. Furthermore, your disciple is confident about the Pact of Three Moves."
Xiao Yang replied with a smile. He appeared to be very confident in himself.
"Since you said so, your master is relieved."
The Second Mountain Master smiled with relief. Suddenly, he lamented, "In the blink of an eye, you've grown up. Your master still remembers that when I first saw you, you were still in swaddling clothes."
When Xiao Yang heard this, he asked curiously, "Master, are you saying this all of a sudden because you want to tell me about my past?"
He understood the Second Mountain Master's character. Normally, he would not say such things.
"Actually, when the Upper Realm invades the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions, I should have let you come out. However, the outside world is unpredictable. With your current cultivation, it's difficult for you to do anything. "
The Second Mountain Master nodded. His gaze was complicated as he stared at Xiao Yang.
"Your disciple can understand that Master is thinking for your disciple."
Xiao Yang smiled. Although he also wanted to come out and see the outside world, he could understand his master's painstaking efforts.
"Do you know why I said that the Nine Mountains Celestial Seal is more suitable for you and not Gu Wudi?" The Second Mountain Master asked again.
"Isn't this because Master is biased towards me?"
Xiao Yang was a little surprised when he saw the Second Mountain Master shake his head slightly.
He thought for a while and said seriously, "Gu Wudi's character and character are incompatible. He is headstrong and self-opinionated. It will be difficult for him to achieve great things. The most important thing is that if he takes control of the Nine Mountains Celestial Seal, the Nine Mountains will be in danger.
"Besides, the Third Mountain Master is ambitious. He doesn't want the Nine Mountains to live in seclusion. As his disciple, Gu Wudi will definitely listen to the Third Mountain Master."
"You're smart."
Hearing this, the Second Mountain Master nodded and praised him.
However, he quickly changed his tone and his expression turned serious. "After you take control of the Nine Mountains Celestial Seal, I will seal the mountain and send you out. The outside world is your home …"
"What?"
"Master, what do you mean? Please forgive me for not understanding."
Hearing this, the smile on Xiao Yang's face suddenly froze. He was a little confused.
He didn't understand the meaning of these words. Master wanted to send him out to the world and then seal off the mountain?
But he said that the outside world was unpredictable.
For a moment, Xiao Yang's mind was a little confused. He couldn't understand.
"Haven't you always wanted to know your background?"
The Second Mountain Master seemed to have expected this. He sighed, and with a flash of light, an ancient jade pendant appeared in his hand.
This jade pendant was only two fingers long, and ancient and complicated patterns were carved on it.
It didn't belong to this era. On the other side, two ancient words were carved: Xiao Yang.
"This is the jade pendant you're wearing. It is also the origin of your name. All these years, this jade pendant has been in my hands."
The Second Mountain Master explained and handed the jade pendant to Xiao Yang at the same time.
"I know." Xiao Yang took the jade pendant with a complicated expression.
He knew about this because Chen Suyun had mentioned it to him before. She said that this jade pendant might very well hide his background.
However, he hadn't investigated it all these years.
"The reason why your family left you outside the Nine Mountains is actually related to this jade pendant."
"The reason why I accepted you as my disciple is actually because I owe the owner of this jade pendant a favor," the Second Mountain Master said again, revealing a fact that shocked Xiao Yang.
"All these years, Master, you haven't told me …"
Xiao Yang smiled bitterly, rubbed his nose, and said, "Are you telling me now because you want me to find my family?"
He didn't blame himself for being abandoned by his family.
When Chen Suyun saw him under the Nine Mountains Waterfall, his life was in danger, and his body was covered in blood.
It was obvious that the people who had escorted him all the way here had experienced many dangers. They didn't want to abandon him, but had no choice.
"You have the blood of the Protectors flowing in your veins. When the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions encounter a great calamity, the Protectors will reappear. I don't know what happened to your family, but you must know your own identity."
"You will face all of this sooner or later." The Second Mountain Master's expression gradually became serious.
"The blood of the Guardians?"
Xiao Yang's heart trembled. He suddenly remembered the strange dreams he had during this period of time.
It was as if there was an ancient and indestructible heroic spirit calling out to him, wanting to fight side by side with him.
It turned out that it wasn't a dream, but an indelible inheritance in his blood.
He fell silent.
The Second Mountain Master looked at him and sighed. "All these years, I have taught you what I should. You are very talented, and your blood contains unparalleled power. However, you still can't fully use it."
"I believe that one day, you will let the glory of the Guardians spread throughout the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions once again."
…
Just as Xiao Yang and the Second Mountain Master were talking, at the edge of the continent thousands of miles away.
The Azure Cloud Flying Ship stretched across the sky like a mountain range. It was incomparably tall and ancient, hidden in the boundless clouds.
Unless a cultivator came here personally, they wouldn't be able to discover the Azure Cloud Flying Ship's existence.
At this moment, on the Azure Cloud Flying Ship, Gu Wudi and the others were covered in blood and looked extremely pathetic. Their hands and feet were chained, and their cultivation was sealed. They were thrown on the ground.
Apart from Gu Wudi, everyone else had a look of fear and shock. Their souls were trembling, and their bodies seemed to be about to explode.
This feeling was even more terrifying than when they faced the Mountain Master. Their legs couldn't help but go weak, and they were about to kneel on the ground.
The white-robed man in front of them looked like an immortal. Although his expression was calm, he was like a supreme being who sat at the top of the universe, overlooking the vicissitudes of time. Even the void around him seemed to be about to collapse.
Divine light shone brightly, and chaotic Qi surged in his hair. In his eyes, it was as if the universe was about to be destroyed and turned to ashes.
This was the sign of an unfathomably terrifying Dao.
He could shatter the universe and tear the heavens apart with a flick of his finger.
Even someone as strong as Gu Wudi was suppressed by the white-robed man in front of him with one palm and captured.
The Nine Mountains had existed for countless years, but this was the first time they had encountered an invasion. This was simply unimaginable before.
Everyone felt a chill. They couldn't help but tremble, not daring to raise their heads.
"Who are you? What is your purpose in invading the Nine Mountains? "
Gu Wudi's golden armor was shattered, and his injuries were severe. He was almost killed by one palm.
There was still blood at the corner of his mouth, but he forced himself to calm down and asked about Gu Changge's background.
After all, this was the Nine Mountains' territory. If there was a commotion, or if the Mountain Masters sense that their Qi had disappeared, they would quickly find this place.
His heart calmed down a little.
"Who I am is not important."
Gu Changge lightly shook his head. His expression was calm. "If you don't want to die, then answer my question obediently."
"What if I don't agree?"
Gu Wudi stared at him coldly.
He could feel that the Gu Changge in front of him was actually not that old. At most, he was about the same age as his little brother, Xiao Yang.
But the opponent almost killed him with one palm. That terrifying power made him feel like he was facing a Mountain Master.
"If you don't agree, then I will kill you and search your soul. After all, I will destroy the Nine Mountains behind you very soon. "
Gu Changge's expression did not change much as he spoke lightly.
Annihilating the Nine Great Mountains sounded like it was the same as stepping on an ant. There wasn't much difference.
This caused everyone to shiver involuntarily and feel a bit terrified.
Gu Wudi's expression also changed. He gritted his teeth. He could feel Gu Changge's disdainful attitude.
If the opponent didn't have complete confidence, he wouldn't say such a thing. He wouldn't have barged into the Nine Skies without considering the consequences.
"This is the Token of the Path … he should be the descendant of the Nine Mountains."
Just then, the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden, who had been behind Gu Changge, walked over. Her gaze landed on the jade token hanging on Gu Wudi's waist.
She recognized that token. It was the symbol of the descendant of the Nine Mountains.
But in this life, before the descendant of the Nine Mountains was born, he was captured by Gu Changge and suppressed here.
This made her gaze strange. It was like she was mocking, but also disdainful.
"Token of the Path?"
Gu Changge frowned slightly. Just now, he felt that there was something different about the Nine Mountains.
It was the feeling of the Son of Destiny.
He thought that the Son of Destiny this time would be the descendant of the Nine Mountains, but now it seemed that he had guessed wrong.
Although Gu Wudi's cultivation was not bad, his luck points were far from that of the Son of Destiny. He couldn't even be considered a person of great luck.
At most, he could be considered a promising genius.
And judging from the degree of decline of his luck, he might have formed a grudge with the Son of Destiny.
"You … you're the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden?"
At this moment, Gu Wudi carefully stared at the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden as if he was seriously sizing her up. Then, his expression changed drastically as he blurted out in shock.
He had seen the true appearance of the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden from Chen Suyun.
Because Chen Suyun had almost become the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden, she had a talented Junior Sister.
Hearing this, the rest of the people of the Nine Mountains also widened their eyes in shock as they looked at the beauty in white in front of them.
Her beauty was indeed indescribable. Her beauty was unparalleled and her skin was glowing. It was almost dreamy, without a single flaw, like a fairy from heaven.
Gu Changge stood side by side with her, like a pair of immortal companions.
They didn't doubt Gu Wudi's words, but they didn't expect to see the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden here.
And she was so close to the man in white in front of them.
"You recognize me? It seems that you have seen my portrait. Who is Chen Suyun to you? "
The Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden seemed to be a little surprised when she heard this. She looked at Gu Wudi carefully and asked with a smile, giving off a refreshing feeling.
However, when the others heard Chen Suyun's name, they couldn't help but shiver as they felt a terrifying chill.
It was rumored that the Eldest Senior Sister Chen Suyun and the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden had a deep grudge.
When Chen Suyun left the Heaven's Deer City and came to the Nine Mountains, there seemed to be some unknown secret.
For a moment, everyone thought that the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden brought Gu Changge to the Nine Mountains.
But when did the Eight Barren Ten Regions have such a terrifying young man?
"Chen Suyun is no one to me. She is only the Eldest Senior Sister of the Nine Mountains," Gu Wudi said.
At the same time, he was guessing the Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden's purpose in coming here.
Could it be that she came here to settle the grudge with Chen Suyun?
But why did Gu Changge say that he wanted to destroy the Nine Mountains?
"Oh, Eldest Senior Sister? It seems that she has been doing well these past few years. Then as your Junior Sister, I can rest assured. "
The Heaven's Deer Mystic Maiden was still smiling. She was both pure and evil.
Then, his eyes turned and landed on Gu Changge's face with a bewitching look.
"Young Master Gu, it seems that we have a good bargaining chip," she said.
"Bargaining chip? I just don't know how valuable this bargaining chip is. "
Gu Changge shook his head and directly reached out to draw in the void. Streaks of black divine light spread out and turned into brilliant runes of the Great Path, condensing into an ancient word "slave".
Buzz!!
In the next moment, the word "slave" flew out and turned into a ray of black light. It directly fell between Gu Wudi's eyebrows and quickly disappeared.
"What is this …"
Gu Wudi couldn't avoid it at all. The expression on his face became somewhat difficult to hide, and he could no longer maintain his composure like before.
Even if he didn't know what kind of method this was, he could feel that Gu Changge was up to no good.
Moreover, after the mysterious mark disappeared between his eyebrows, he felt that his life was not in his control.
This feeling made him uneasy. It was as if at this moment, he had become the other party's slave.
"If you don't want to die, then don't try to go against my words."
Gu Changge said indifferently. He had no intention of wasting time with him.
He had already seen that Gu Wudi in front of him was not the kind of person who was not afraid of death.
Therefore, it was easier to control his life and death with the slave seal to make him obedient.
"You … you planted a slave seal on me …"
Gu Wudi's expression was a little pale with fear. He couldn't believe it.
He was a Supreme existence.
At this level, even if his body was torn apart and buried in the world, he could still recover to his original state.
The strength of his vitality was incomparably terrifying and indescribable. Unless he encountered a crushing force, it was very difficult to kill him.
Therefore, methods like the slave seal were very difficult to work on Supreme existences, unless they had special secret methods or methods.
"Looks like you're not stupid." Gu Changge glanced at him casually.
Gu Wudi's expression instantly became hopeless. Even a Supreme would be planted with a slave seal. It was obvious that Gu Changge's methods were powerful.
Moreover, he had already vaguely guessed Gu Changge's identity.
It was impossible for such a terrifying young man to exist in the Eight Desolates Ten Regions, so he must be from the Upper Realm.
Even the Fairy of Heaven's Deer was so close to him.
What happened in the Eight Desolates Ten Regions?
Gu Wudi couldn't imagine.
Just now, when he had just thought of disrespectful resistance, a destructive aura came from his Sea of Consciousness, almost shattering his God Soul.
This made Gu Wudi feel hopeless and powerless.
He was proud and arrogant, and his ambition was greater than those who had attained the Dao. He did not want to put his life on the line because of this.
Therefore, no matter how unwilling Gu Wudi was, he could only choose to submit. He didn't dare to show any disrespect or resistance.
"I like smart people, because smart people are more tactful. It seems that you are also a smart person. "
Gu Changge noticed the change in Gu Wudi's attitude and nodded slightly.
Gu Wudi's heart was filled with helplessness and bitterness.
He was the descendant of the Nine Mountains, a Supreme. Once he was born, his name would shake the world, and everyone would respect him.
But now, before he was born, he was a slave, his life and death controlled by others.
This feeling simply made him mad with hatred, and he couldn't wait to roar to the sky.
As for the rest of the people he caught, Gu Changge also planted a slave seal in them to prevent them from spreading the news here and causing a commotion in the Nine Mountains.
Judging from Gu Wudi's cultivation, the Nine Mountains' strength should not be simple.
There were at least eight people who had achieved the Dao, and he couldn't rule out the existence that had gone further on this path.
Gu Changge didn't care about them, but he had to guard against the other means of the Nine Mountains.
And before that, he wanted to know the identity of the Nine Mountains' Child of Destiny.
"From now on, I'm here to accompany you to see Senior Sister."
Then, Gu Changge ordered the people on the Azure Cloud Flying Ship to stay here, and then let Gu Wudi and the others take him and the Fairy of Heaven's Deer into the depths of the Nine Mountains.
As a guard, Ah Da, who had now broken through to the second layer of the Quasi-emperor realm, followed closely behind him.
And Gu Changge naturally said this to the Fairy of Heaven's Deer.
"Got it, Young Master Gu is here to accompany me to see Senior Sister."
The Fairy of Heaven's Deer smiled, the light of wisdom shining brightly between her eyebrows, and there was a flirtatious expression on her face. She had already guessed Gu Changge's intention.
Soon, Gu Wudi and the others led the way in front, and a golden path stretched out under their feet, passing through great swamps and mountains, and hurried to the real location of the Nine Mountains.
It had to be said that the environment of the Cloud Tomb was very different from the outside world.
There were many ancient fierce beasts here, and wild birds were everywhere, but they were not fierce, and were even somewhat docile.
Primitive ancient forests were densely packed, and the mountains were magnificent.
Along the way, many disciples of the Nine Mountains saw Gu Wudi and the others, and all bowed respectfully, very afraid of him.
But they were a little curious about Gu Changge and the Fairy of Heaven's Deer who were following behind.
For countless years, no outsider had come to the Nine Mountains.
But they all regarded the two as Dao Child Gu Wudi's friends, and dared not ask too much.
"Young Master, which mountain are we going to first?"
Halfway, Gu Wudi suddenly asked respectfully.
"Whichever mountain you are at, that's where we'll go."
Gu Changge said casually, and withdrew his gaze from the place.
"Yes." Gu Wudi nodded, and the golden path stretched out under his feet, descending from the sky, and landing on a majestic immortal mountain in the depths.
The sea of stars around them was vast, and specks of starlight gathered. It had a magnificent beauty that made one feel like they were in a fairyland.
This was the Third Mountain.
"Greetings, Dao Child."
"The Third Mountain Lord is looking for you."
When they saw that Gu Wudi had returned, divine rainbows rushed over from the mountains. Someone looked at Gu Changge and the Fairy of Heaven's Deer in confusion, and then said to Gu Wudi.
Among these people, there were men and women, and they were all very old, not young.
"I know, I'll bring the honored guest to see Master now."
Gu Wudi nodded, and regained his former majesty. There was a golden divine light in his hair, and he looked like a god.
Everyone was very afraid of him, and they were even more curious about the honored guest he mentioned, but they dared not ask too much.
"Young Master, this way please."
Gu Wudi led the way in front to the main hall of the Third Mountain.
Gu Changge nodded slightly, not worried that Gu Wudi was up to anything.
Moreover, he wanted to see what kind of cultivation this so-called Third Mountain Lord had.
At the peak of the Third Mountain, clouds and mist were boundless, and a majestic and ancient palace stood there.
Chaotic Immortal waterfalls fell, floating between the various peaks.
Immortal mist filled the air, and Immortal light intertwined. There were thousands of rays of light, and thousands of auspicious colors.
This was a shocking scene. It was like a real paradise, a paradise on earth.
The spiritual beasts and immortal birds here all had a kind of immortal charm, and their auras were exceptionally powerful. It could be said that they were completely different from those who lived outside the world.
When they saw Gu Changge and the others arrive, they were not frightened. Accompanied by the multicolored light, their colorful feathers shone brilliantly.
"There should be some kind of secret treasure that maintains the environment of this place …"
Gu Changge noticed this scene and understood something in his heart.
The Nine Great Mountains were rather extraordinary. Compared to his inner universe, they had an additional Qian Xuan creation and an endless cycle of life.
"Wudi, who are these people?"
Soon, Gu Changge and the others, under Gu Wudi's lead, met the so-called Third Mountain Lord in the hall.
This was an old man in a black robe, and his spirit was bright. When he opened and closed his eyes, there was a supreme aura lingering around him.
However, he was also looking at Gu Changge in confusion. Emperor Dao Runes flowed in his eyes, and finally, they fell on the Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden.
"Master, this is the distinguished guest I met outside the mountain gate," Gu Wudi said respectfully, not daring to reveal what had happened before.
"You are this generation's Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden?"
The Third Mountain Lord's voice was a little surprised. It was obvious that he recognized the Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden.
The Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden smiled and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
"Then this is …?"
He looked at Gu Changge, a little uncertain of this young man's cultivation.
He clearly gave off a young feeling, but why did he feel incomparably dangerous, even more so than the Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden?
"His name is Changge, and he is my husband."
However, before Gu Changge could speak, the Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden smiled and said first. At the same time, she naturally held his arm.
Her eyebrows were curved, and she stood there like a divine lotus. There was a kind of holy aura around her, as if she had returned to her previous appearance.
"Husband?"
The Third Mountain Lord's eyebrows twitched, and he was a little shocked. When did the Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden have a husband?
Since ancient times, the Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden had been the representative of purity. There had never been a man by her side.
"Yes, but I am only my husband's concubine," the Empyrean Deer Mystic Maiden said again, but this time, there was a hint of resentment.
