Chapter 1 Golden Clouds Lock the City, Cook the Sea and Burn the Sky
Chapter 1: Golden Clouds Lock the City, Boiling the Sea and Burning the Sky ()
It was raining and raining for several days. The Southern Wilderness is a rainy season. At this time of year, the entire Southern Wilderness is shrouded in a bleak cloud of sorrow, and the sun is gone for half a month. However, under such a hazy sky, in the mountains and ridges, there is a golden light shining everywhere.
At a height of three thousand feet above the mountain, five huge golden auspicious clouds were floating, each of which was even larger than a mountain.
The auspicious clouds are different from the old turtle, python, tiger, unicorn, and roc. They are furious and fierce, guarding one side. The golden light in the sky is emitted by these five auspicious beasts.
When the drizzle encounters this golden light, it immediately turns into the purest water-moving spiritual energy, and is sucked into the golden light, nourishing the formation.
Five huge iron chains, the thickness of an ancient tower, hang down from the clouds, like ladders of heaven. On each chain, a unique rune is carved with Taoist magic, and it runs on the chain like a living thing, with light flowing and extraordinary.
Under the chain, it is buckled on the forehead of five huge stone-carved wild elephants. The wild elephant is a legendary ancient divine beast with six teeth on the mouth and two wings on the back. It has supreme divine power and can carry mountains.
These five stone sculptures are like five peaks, and they do not look short at all compared to the surrounding peaks. Moreover, the stone sculptures are particularly realistic. After countless winds and rains, they are already mottled, but each has an ancient rune, flashing with a faint but endless golden light, which is firmly imprinted on the forehead of the wild elephant. The five chains are connected to this rune.
If a powerful person from the cultivation world comes here, he will definitely see at a glance that these five wild elephants are not dead stone sculptures, but this ancient divine beast, which has been sealed here with supreme magic power!
The people who sealed the five-headed elephants had a very obvious purpose. On the back of the five-headed elephants, they were steadily carrying an ancient city. The ancient city was built with its black rocks, but it was integrated. The huge swords and axes were staggered on the city walls, exuding a tragic atmosphere, as if this ancient city was rushed out of the battlefield of the ancient gods!
Five clouds seal the town, and the Mangxiang packs the city.
Who is this person who has such strength?
The ancient city is integrated, but there is one more thing outside the city. A three-meter-high white jade stele is made of the stone tablet, which is the most precious immortal jade "jade essence" in the cultivation world. Usually in the cultivation world, a piece of pigeon egg size will cause countless sect leaders to personally compete for it. If such a large piece is seen, what kind of crazy behavior will it cause?
However, what is even more shocking is the four big words on this thick jade monument: Yongzhen Nanhuang!
The characters are as red as blood, and the pen is like dragons and snakes, and it is a momentum that looks down on the world.
On the back of the jade monument, there are many small characters engraved, arranged in rows. The front ones are: Blood Jade Dynasty, the Wasteland Tomb Family, Jiuyemen, the Demon Phoenix Sword Sect, Luo Xiedao...
These are the most powerful sects in the Southern Wilderness. Further down, there are some small sects with weaker strength. On the back of the entire jade monument, there are hundreds of sects engraved with names, almost covering the entire cultivation sect of the Southern Wilderness. Could it be that the owner of this ancient city is so powerful that he was unanimously elected as the lord of the Southern Wilderness by all the sects in the Southern Wilderness?!
The golden clouds, ancient city, wild elephants, and jade monuments stand alone among the mountains, seemingly lifeless. However, you can see that in the middle of the magnificent stone hall in the center of the ancient city formation, a few strange lights appear very different in the golden light in the sky.
Those lights come from the six peculiar talismans floating in the center of the stone hall. Each peculiar talisman has nine sides, the head and tail of the talisman are also extraordinary. The nine peculiar faces of the talisman are engraved with supreme spiritual power, and they are engraved with dense runes, each with bright and elegant, just like a living thing. If others see it, they will be shocked: the nine-sided talisman is the highest-level and extremely powerful first-grade talisman in the cultivation world! Even the nine heavenly gates in the cultivation world have obtained a first-grade talisman and must be entitled as a treasure of the sect. In this dim stone hall, there are actually six paths!
The six paths and first-grade talismans each emitted a shocking momentum, reaching the sky and echoing the five golden auspicious clouds. The qi is pulled, and with just a little movement, it can cause the heaven and earth to change color and the wind and clouds to change.
Such treasures are already particularly amazing, but if you observe carefully, you can find that this first-grade talisman is actually circulating around something, and their posture is keeping a certain distance from that thing in a surrender attitude, and you dare not step beyond the line.
In the center of the six paths and first-grade talismans, there was a spiritual talisman, but this spiritual talisman was different from the six paths and nine-sided rank outside. The palm was thick, three fingers wide, and two inches long, like a purple jade plaque with mysterious material. The talisman was only engraved with a profound spiritual text, and a hint of blood was faintly revealed.
But for some reason, this talisman was dim and light, so compared with the six first-grade talismans around it, it seemed inconspicuous.
However, the six spiritual talismans were still like loyal ministers, surrounding the talisman.
A hand stretched out from the darkness and gently stroked the purple jade talisman in the center. After a long time, a sigh came: "Ah... the drought-bag is burned with blood. The most evil talisman in the world is also an extremely powerful existence among all the destiny talismans in the entire cultivation world. You have accompanied me Cui Can for 180 years and fought south and north. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have the status today. Xiao He would succeed and defeat Xiao He, but why did you..."
The owner of the hand slowly walked out of the darkness, with black hair floating, a cold and pale complexion, tall and thin, with a pair of hands behind her back, a black robe with brilliant gold edges, and her whole person exuded an evil charm. Even when facing the whole world, she still had a sense of confidence that was full of her current status.
The destiny talisman "Blood Burning from Drought" was quietly lying in his palm. A trace of pain flashed in the eyes of Cui Can, the Emperor of Southern Wilderness.
Two hundred years ago, Cui Can was just a disciple of an unknown small sect. As his identity, he was originally a bullied master in the cultivation world, but he accidentally obtained the world's most evil talisman, Drought Beast Blood Burning. A monk could only practice one destiny talisman in his life. Therefore, whether the destiny talisman is powerful or not is directly related to the future achievements of the monk.
Even among the extremely precious "No. 1 in the World" series of destiny talismans, the combat power is still at the forefront.
With this destiny talisman, Cui Can became famous in the Southern Wilderness in just twenty years. In the next ninety years, the brilliance rose like the rising sun, and its light was unstoppable.
The legend of "Drought Bone Blood Burning" is that it was once sealed on the forehead of the most evil monster in ancient times. After ten thousand years, it swallowed up all the essence and blood of Drought Bone. Once it was used, it would be like boiling the sea and burning the sky!
It was precisely because of this destiny talisman that after ninety years of conquest, Cui Can finally stabilized the Southern Wilderness. Ninety years ago, all the cultivation sects in the Southern Wilderness jointly presented the jade monument of "Yongzhen Nan Wilderness" and officially recognized Cui Can's status as the Emperor of Nan Wilderness.
In the next ninety years, Cui Can was in charge of the Southern Wilderness, and countless righteous monks were burned to death by the drought. The nine heavenly gates fought against the Southern Wilderness four times, and they all died in front of Cui Can. Seven elders of the nine heavenly gates were killed. Even Lin Juefeng, the head of Jiuyi Mountain, one of the nine heavenly gates, was blinded by him!
The glorious past flashed in front of his eyes, Cui Can felt in his heart that the Drought Blood Burning was extremely powerful. Even Cui Can could only exert 60% of the power of the Drought Blood Burning. Cui Can vaguely felt that there was a huge secret hidden in the remaining 40% of the power. If it could be cracked, he would really be able to reach the top. Who is the opponent in the world?
But before he could fully exert all the power of the Drought Blade Blood Burning, this world's most fierce talisman actually... Alas! He sighed inwardly, stroked the dim Drought Blade Blood Burning, and called out softly: "Sword Eyebrow."
Over the past 180 years, there have been many women who admire Cui Can, but today only Song Jianmei is still with Cui Can. The reason is that Song Jianmei is well-behaved.
Back then, Song Jianmei was the number one beauty in the immortal world. She was extremely talented and could definitely rank among the top ten young generations of the righteous path, with many followers. She and Cui Can were both incompatible with each other, but since she met Cui Can, she immediately put aside the dispute between good and evil, she took off her sharp edge, followed Cui Can obediently, obediently and gentle, and obedient to Cui Canyan, which surprised those young talents who had been pursuing Song Jianmei for many years.
No matter what Cui Can ordered, Song Jianmei would do it without hesitation. But today, after Cui Can shouted, he had not received a response for a long time.
Cui Can felt keenly that things seemed to be a little bad. At this moment, the entire ancient city suddenly shook, followed by five huge thunders. Cui Can's face changed and flew out. Sure enough, the five chains were already opened on the five golden auspicious clouds!
Cui Can understood something in an instant, and his face was pale.
Before she could react, the moment the five chains opened, dozens of powerful auras rushed in from outside.
"Ha!" A wild laugh came, and a demon shadow seemed to be illusory, floating to the gate of the ancient city, standing in the wind, and looked at the jade monument of "Yongzhen Nanhuang" with contempt: "Yongzhen Nanhuang? Yongzhen Nanhuang? Joke!" The demon shadow flicked his sleeves, and a black light blew the jade monument to pieces.
There were twenty or thirty people who appeared with the demon shadow. The demon shadow rose into the air, and those people immediately followed him and rushed into the city together.
Cui Can sneered: "The second person in the Southern Wilderness, Gui Liming, you finally dare to appear in front of me."
The demon ghost Li Ming grinned: "Hmph, Cui Can, I have always been dissatisfied with your identity as the Emperor of Nanhuang. I will come to ask for advice today!"
Cui Can laughed to the sky: "Ask for advice? Why don't you dare to come before my drought-bag blood burned? I once passed by your Demon Flame Valley, and you retreated three thousand miles in shock. Why don't you dare to ask me for advice at that time?"
Gui Liming was exposed by him, and he was immediately angry and shouted: "Stop talking nonsense. Today, Gui led his fellow disciples in Nanhuang. Please abdicate, hand over the secret treasure house, and exit Huangyun City. If you are obedient, it would be fine. If you refuse... Gui has no choice but to do it. Humph, teach the Emperor of Nanhuang a lesson. Such an honor is rare in three lives!"
Cui Can ignored Gui Liming, who was successful in villains, and just glanced at the people behind him. Cui Can is not unfamiliar with these people. They are indeed the heads of the Southern Wilderness Sect. In the past, these people tried every means to please them, but now they are all standing behind Gui Liming.
Cui Can's lips sneered: "If I hadn't been guarding the Southern Wilderness for ninety years, how many of you could still stand here? I'm afraid they have been captured by the Nine Heavenly Gate and went to Ruolu Prison, right?"
Just one sentence made these sects ashamed, and more than 70% of them lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Cui Can. However, today's matters were on the string, and these sects would not change their minds because of Cui Can's words.
Cui Can had already seen these people's faces clearly, snorted coldly, shook his sleeves and said proudly: "Come on, I want my secret treasure house, my Huangyun City, and I can get it with my ability!"
Gui Liming smiled grimly, and a demonic flame behind him rose by three hundred feet. Just as he was about to pounce on him, a cold voice suddenly came: "Emperor Cui, will old friends come to visit us?"
Cui Can seemed to have expected it and said calmly: "I knew you would definitely not miss this good show. Come in when you come. You have tried your best to break the five cloud locks of my Huangyun City. I just don't welcome you. Aren't you coming in yet?"
With a clear and long smile, a colorful rainbow bridge fell into the city. The rainbow bridge was inlaid with various gems and pearls, which were extremely luxurious. A single-eyed old man followed hundreds of righteous monks slowly walked down from the rainbow bridge.
Someone among the Southern Wilderness Sects recognized him and exclaimed in a low voice: "Lin Juefeng, the head of Jiuyi Mountain!"
Lin Juefeng personally led his army into the Southern Wilderness and was invincible. However, after meeting Cui Can, he returned home and was injured by Cui Can. The drought-bar fire poison that burned his eyes damaged his soul, so this eye has not yet been restored to light.
As the Emperor of Nanhuang, Cui Can naturally guessed that Lin Juefeng would definitely take advantage of the situation at this moment, and was not surprised by his appearance. However, when Cui Can saw the elegant girl following Lin Juefeng, the muscles on his face couldn't help but twitch: "Song Jianmei, it's you!"
Cui Can never expected that the first person to betray him was the lover he trusted the most! It was Song Jianmei who opened the Five Cloud Lock, otherwise even if these people could come in, they would have to pay a huge price. Whether it was Lin Juefeng or Gui Liming, the person they brought would die at least half of them.
Song Jianmei looked at him with a blank look, but his voice seemed emotional: "I have been undercover beside you for hundreds of years, just to kill you and eliminate harm to the right path!"
"Undercover?" Cui Can sneered. He had never been wary of Song Jianmei. Song Jianmei had countless opportunities to kill him, but he just waited until now. To put it bluntly, it was because of his drought and blood burning. Everyone thought that they would be depressed!
When Song Jianmei followed him, she was under great pressure, but Cui Can was the same? As a demon figure, she fell in love with the righteous fairy. When the two were together at first, Cui Can had not reached the height of being superior to the Southern Wilderness. More than 70% of the people who came to chase Cui Can were worried that Song Jianmei would leak the secrets of the demon. Cui Can himself could not remember how many times he fought for Song Jianmei and how many injuries he had suffered.
Even after he became the Emperor of Nanhuang, he was not at peace. However, Nanhuang had rebellion, because he could not stand the fact that the woman who was with the Emperor was actually from the right path.
Cui Can himself even took risks alone in order to shock the nine heavenly gates and refused to trouble the Song Jianmei tribe members, leaving Nanhuang to kill a Luofushan elder who bullied the Song clan.
Luofu Mountain is one of the nine great heavenly gates. That battle was the most tragic battle since Cui Can debuted.
Cui Can was furious. What he hated most in his life was the betrayal of the people around him. Gui Liming and the factions of the Southern Wilderness rebelled against him. He was just disdainful in his heart, but Song Jianmei really made him angry.
Song Jianmei's face suddenly changed, and her jade palm flipped and slapped at the ground. With a loud bang, a light golden light burst out quickly. Song Jianmei's body floated lightly and landed safely dozens of feet away.
Cui Can hates her betrayed her and has no warning to her. But Song Jianmei is worthy of being the top ten young people in the past. After years of being with Cui Can, her cultivation has become increasingly profound. Cui Can's killing move was calmly resolved by her.
Song Jianmei glanced at him, with a little disdain in her eyes, and said lightly: "Even I can take on your killing move, what future do you have? Hand over the secret treasure house, and stop fighting the trapped beasts."
The two sides represent the nine heavenly gates on one side and the other represent the Nanhuang Demon Sect. Cui Can stood in the center and suddenly a long roar was like a dragon's roar, shaking the sky.
"Come on, Emperor Nanhuang is here. I want my life and a treasure house in the secret realm. Let's see if you have that ability!"
The six-path first-grade talisman slowly rose outside itself, and endless momentum rolled, like a big river rushing endlessly. Lin Juefeng and Gui Liming's expressions changed. The two waved their hands at the same time and directed everyone behind them: "Kill!"
This battle lasted for seven days, and the color of the world changed, the yin and yang were inverted, and the five elements were reversed. Thousands of peaks of Guiqiu Mountain where Huangyun City was located were wiped out of thin air, and a sinkhole with a diameter of dozens of miles appeared, as if it was bombarded by a meteorite outside the sky. The entire southern wilderness trembled six times, and mortals thought that an earthquake occurred and were panicked.
The Emperor Cui Can of the Southern Wilderness fell, and the most evil talisman in the world was buried with the Emperor. But what surprised both the good and the evil talisman was that the Emperor of the Southern Wilderness who had lost the destiny talisman actually slaughtered thirteen powerful people, accounting for half of the powerful people participating in this battle; among them, six people in the Demonic Way and seven people in the Right Way.
Gui Liming and Lin Juefeng were seriously injured. The "secret treasure house" where the emperor collected secret treasures throughout his life was destroyed in the violent explosion, and Gui Liming and Lin Juefeng got nothing.
Gui Liming became the new Lord of the Southern Wilderness, but this battle left secret injuries, and he could not recover for decades, and was unable to suppress the entire Southern Wilderness. The Lord of the Southern Wilderness was not worthy of his reputation, and the paradise of the Demonic Way in the Sunri was in a mess.
Lin Juefeng endured his injuries and fled back to Jiuyi Mountain. It is said that as soon as he arrived at the gate of the mountain, he could no longer suppress his vomiting of blood for three liters, and his qi and blood were greatly damaged. He hurriedly announced to the world that Song Jianmei had made great contributions in the battle to kill the demon king Cui Can, and was a righteous woman. After the Song clan was protected by Jiuyi Mountain, he immediately went into seclusion and recuperation.
