The branch above our heads is probably the result of the immortal beings in the World Tree communicating and offering sacrifices to it, which means that the battle situation at the border is not optimistic, at least our side is at a disadvantage. "Wang Mian nodded, confirming Wang Heng's statement.
After saying this, Wang Mian looked towards the direction of the border with bright eyes and a worried look on his face.
“The attack from the foreign land must be extremely fierce, but unfortunately, the number of Immortal Kings who went to support us is limited, and we don’t know what the Immortal King is doing.
With his skills, he should have no problem protecting himself." He muttered to himself, worried about the safety of Wang Heng's father.
After all, he is the big tree that protects the Wang family from wind and rain. Once he falls, this towering warship will also sink.
Wang Heng sighed secretly. He already knew the outcome of the border battle in advance. He tried to ask if he could be taken to the border to take a look.
Not surprisingly, he got a negative answer.
"Please rest assured, my lord. The Immortal King is supreme and unrivaled in the past and present. Nothing will happen to him.
Before leaving, the master had left instructions not to let any of the Wang family go to the border, so Wang Mian cannot fulfill your request, please forgive me. "
"ok, I get it."
Wang Heng nodded, looked up to the sky and sighed. It seemed that he came at the wrong time. If he had come earlier, before the Immortal King father went to the border, he might have tried to stop and persuade him, even though it would most likely be useless.
But now, it's too late to say anything.
He could only wait silently for the result that had already been determined and quietly welcome the arrival of the storm.
"Senior, let's go back." Wang Heng suddenly said.
Seeing that he was not in a good mood, Wang Mian thought that he was worried about his father's safety, so he nodded.
At his command, nine purebred pegasus horses at the Hedao realm neighed to the sky and rushed towards Daotu, pulling the ancient bronze chariot covered with knife and axe marks and arrow holes.
There is no restriction on the entry and exit of mounts here, so there is no need to worry about offending the owner of this place.
"The Wang family's Pegasus is pulling the carriage! It should be Wang Zu who is going back. His father, the supreme Immortal King, has gone to the border. As a biological son, he must be very worried." Someone whispered.
"A big wave is coming. At this time, we should go back home and make plans early." The other creatures whispered and prepared to leave.
The Pegasus-drawn carriage streaked across the sky like a meteor and stopped precisely in front of Wang Mian and Wang Heng.
Wang Mian greeted the quasi-immortal kings and true immortals with a smile, then stood respectfully behind Wang Heng, waiting for him to get on the car.
At this moment, Wang Heng didn't know where the future would lead, and whether the friends he made would still be able to toast with him and communicate sincerely about the great Dao like they did today. So, he sighed and waved goodbye to all the geniuses in the Dao realm.
"Everyone, troubled times are coming. I hope that one day we can sit together and drink to our heart's content."
“Why is Wang Zu pessimistic? If it really comes to the moment of life and death for the ancient world, I believe that all the Immortal Kings will not stand idly by. It is not so easy for foreign realms to invade our world.” Li Daoqing, the successor of Qiankun Sect, said.
Wang Heng smiled when he heard this, but did not answer immediately. It was only after a long while that he gave his response.
"maybe."
He looked at Shi Jintian again and said, "Fellow Daoist Shi, the situation at the border is not optimistic. Just stay here. With your current state, you won't be able to help much even if you go back."
Shi Jintian was wearing golden armor. Although he was still young, he was very heroic and full of courage.
He laughed heartily, his eyes showing a gentle look, and a hint of gratitude, and replied: "Thank you for the advice, Wang Zu. The reason I can appear here at this time is that my family is not optimistic about the ancient world. They sent me here, so at least the family's inheritance will not be cut off."
"So that's it." Wang Heng suddenly realized that he had already had such a guess, and now it has been confirmed.
As for the grateful look from Shi Jintian, he could understand it. During this border crisis, the Wang family's Immortal King risked his life to stay at the border and help the Shi clan and other tribes resist foreign attacks. Regardless of whether it was due to cause and effect or not, the border tribes should all be grateful.
Afterwards, Wang Heng bid farewell to the others reluctantly. After doing all this, he slowly boarded the ancient bronze chariot, and Wang Mian followed closely behind him.
As the nine celestial horses' powerful flaming hooves trampled the void, the ancient bronze chariot roared away and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, the remaining geniuses on Dao Land followed Wang Heng's steps and left one after another. The quasi-immortal kings standing at the forefront of Dao Land also left in unpleasantness due to the previous dispute and confrontation.
Some disappeared without saying a word, while others whispered something and called on the young geniuses they brought with them to leave together. The two quasi-immortal kings who almost started a fight snorted coldly and disappeared in an instant.
In just half a cup of tea, there were only a few people left in the vast Taoist land.
Hua Yun, the immortal who lived in seclusion here, couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"The people of the Ancient Realm are divided and will suffer sooner or later, especially with this massive attack from the foreign lands. If the tribes at the border suffer huge losses because they are isolated and helpless, they will surely be dissatisfied and will inevitably cause unimaginable turmoil in the Thirty-Three Days."
Not far from her, a quasi-immortal king who had not yet left nodded in agreement.
“There is no way. When the crisis from the outside world is not big enough and not deep enough, the ancient world will never be able to unite.
Right now, if we want to stabilize the ethnic groups on the border after this war, all forces and families must come forward together to offer compensation. Only in this way can their anger be quelled. This kind of thing can only be accomplished by the powerful adults.
Fairy Huayun has always been on good terms with those two adults, and has a very deep friendship. I wonder if I can give some advice and clarify this matter? "
"In fact, Master Wuzhong and Master Lunhui have also discussed this issue. In the end, the result of their discussion was that they could crown the border tribes as kings, and all the tribes in the thirty-three heavens of the ancient world would give their blessings, forming a mark of glory that would be engraved in their blood to recognize their contributions."
Chapter 51 Triggering the Seal
“The blessings of all races, the enthronement of a king, and the creation of a mark of glory?
This is a way to have the best of both worlds. The two Immortal Kings are far-sighted and have already thought of a solution." The Quasi-Immortal King exclaimed.
"It's a pity that the two adults left because of their own matters before they could implement it." Hua Yun Zhenxian sighed.
"Yes.
If we want to contact the two adults now, we can only rely on Fairy Hua Yun. "The Quasi-Immortal King said politely. This was not a compliment, but a fact, because Fairy Hua Yun had a very close relationship with Wuzhong and Lunhui, and maybe there was really a way to get in touch with them.
"I dare not. I am just a small True Immortal. How can I have such ability? However, for the peace and stability of the Ancient World, I will do my best."
"With the fairy's words, I feel relieved."
Not long after, the last quasi-immortal king also left, and the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea once again returned to its former tranquility.
……
The Wang family's immortal palace is mysterious and vast. It has a prosperous city, a vast secret world, and many immortal palaces. It can be said to be a large family with a great fortune.
However, such prosperity is built on the supreme power of the Immortal King, and is closely related to the Immortal King in every aspect.
If the Immortal King falls one day, all the prosperity and splendor will be burned down overnight.
On the ancient bronze chariot, Wang Heng looked down through the ancient window and witnessed the magnificent and beautiful scenery. There was no expression on his face, and he looked a little lonely, as if he had foreseen the decline of the Immortal King's palace.
As the son of the Immortal King, this is the starting point of his life, which can be said to be extremely high. He has surpassed countless of his peers and even won the first place in the first realm of cultivation, the Tao Realm. He is famous throughout the world and has demonstrated unparalleled talent and potential.
However, fate is always so tortuous and bumpy. As luck would have it, he was actually the immortal prince of the Wang family. Moreover, the immortal king's father had never shown up from the beginning. He had already gone to the border and instructed his subordinates not to let anyone from the Wang family go to the border.
This blocked Wang Heng's communication with his father. He was really powerless and had no way to stop the coming storm.
In fact, even if Wang Heng could have a conversation with the Immortal King father, his advice would most likely be useless, because the Immortal King still believed in cause and effect, and it was impossible for him to choose to retreat just because of a few words from a creature in the Dao realm like him.
"My lord, are you still worried? In fact, the power at the border is not weak. There are nearly a dozen Immortal Kings in the lands of several days. They are the ancestors of the tribes at the border. They have experienced the baptism of war. Even if they are not giants, they have incomparable combat power.
With the reinforcements of my Wang family's Supreme Immortal King and several other Immortal King-level strongmen, there shouldn't be any big problems. With the Immortal King's strength, even if the border city is breached, he can protect himself and withdraw in time.
When the time comes, when the aliens come to attack, even if the other immortal kings in the ancient world are unwilling to take action, they will have no choice but to do so. "Wang Mian comforted him in the chariot.
Wang Heng didn't know how to answer and could only nod mechanically.
"Let's go back to my secret room first."
He said lightly.
Without hesitation, Wang Mian rode the nine celestial horses towards the place where Wang Heng was practicing.
After passing through layers of restrictions, Wang Heng and Wang Mian arrived at the dark passage.
The candlelight was dim, hiding eyes full of malice and resentment. In their previous lives, they were enemies of the Wang Family Immortal King. After being killed, they were refined into lamp oil and sealed in this passage, burning for eternity, enduring the scorching heat day and night, and suffering excruciating pain.
"Boy, you are about to face a disaster. I see disaster in you. To be more precise, it comes from your blood. If you want to survive, come to me and open this lampshade. I will teach you the supreme method to resolve disasters."
Deep in the passage, an old voice suddenly came out from an ancient lamp that flickered on and off, carrying with it a strange power that could confuse people.
Wang Heng's soul was shaken, and the pitch-black sword embryo that represented the inheritance of the Quelling Rebellion Art trembled slightly, exuding peerless sword energy, strangling the void. In an instant, black air dispersed, and faint wailing sounds were heard.
"That old man Wang Gen really left a trick up his sleeve for you."
At this time, Wang Heng also returned to normal. He stared at the ancient lamp coldly, his eyes narrowed and murderous.
Before, he had passed by this place many times but never saw the other party attack. He thought they had been refined into lamp oil and burned for eternity and had long lost the power to open the seal. Who would have thought that the creature in this oil lamp was so powerful and had the ability to influence the outside world.
I don’t know whether my father, the Immortal King, neglected this or left it here on purpose.
Wang Mian was filled with shock and anger. He had already stood in front of Wang Heng, separating him from the oil lamp. Just now, he almost let Wang Heng get into trouble in front of him. If this really happened, he would definitely be to blame.
"Senior, can you help destroy all the oil lamps in this passage? My father had good intentions in leaving them behind, but now, I don't need them anymore." Wang Heng said.
He always felt that these oil lamps were very dangerous. Several of them must have been immortal kings in their lifetime. Now, with the storm approaching, leaving them behind would undoubtedly be a time bomb, so it would be better to destroy them all.
However, Wang Mian shook his head.
"These ancient lamps were made by the Immortal King himself. They are infused with the power of the Immortal King. I cannot destroy them. I must wait for the Immortal King to return before I can do so."
"Ok."
Wang Heng replied helplessly.
He thought about it carefully and made a bold attempt. He cut his finger directly, and a drop of blood dripped out. It was bright red, looked juicy, and was filled with a fragrant aroma.
"Blood? What are you going to do?"
The voice in the oil lamp immediately became nervous, as if a mouse saw a cat.
Wang Heng threw the blood floating on his finger without any hesitation, and it landed right on the lampshade of the oil lamp.
The lampshade of the oil lamp immediately glowed brightly, and terrifying symbols appeared. The power it exuded even frightened Wang Mian and made him feel horrified. He was sure that this was the power of the Immortal King level, which could kill him in an instant.
"what!"
Black smoke rose from the oil lamp. The being inside was strangled by the power of the Immortal King. It suffered heavy losses in an instant and let out screams.
Not long after, Wang Heng's blood burned out, and the wailing inside also stopped, as if he was completely dead.
Wang Heng naturally would not believe that a drop of his blood could wipe out the remnant of this Immortal King. At most, he could weaken the opponent and teach him a lesson.
He no longer paid attention to the regret in this oil lamp, but turned his gaze to other oil lamps.
Since his blood can trigger the seal left by his father, the Immortal King, Wang Heng can use it to control and suppress these oil lamps, which may be of great use in the future.
Chapter 52 Preparation
Then, he did the same thing, using his own blood to trigger the seal of the oil lamps, lighting the oil lamps that were suspected to be the predecessors of the Immortal King. Suddenly, screams could be heard in the passage.
Seeing this, the remnants of souls in the other oil lamps shut their mouths wisely, fearing that Wang Heng would give them one drop as well.
