now

It was drizzling.

The Seventeenth Patriarch and his group were sitting on several carriages and moving slowly on the muddy road.

"Sir, why don't you take the water or train? It's more than 3,000 kilometers away from the center of the empire. With the strength of these carriages, when will it be enough to get to the end?"

"It's too slow."

Mufasha said with a wry smile.

The path they walked was called Qingzhi Road.

Since ancient times, although the dirt road leading to the center of the empire has been replaced by waterways and railways since modern times, the traffic between the north and the south has been replaced by waterways and railways, the Qingzhi Road has declined, not as prosperous as in ancient times.

However, there are occasional professionals who like to walk this straight path. After all, this straight path is sparsely populated, which can hide the traces of walking and reduce the possibility of exposure.

Qingzhi Road is 4,000 to 5,000 kilometers long, from south to north, along the banks of Santu River and Wangchuan River, passing through mountains and ridges, starting from the south where the ghosts and walls of the southern prefecture are located, and to the edge of the Infinite Desert in the north.

The center of the empire that commanded many palaces was in the center of this Qingzhi Road.

And there is also the place where Santu River, Wangchuan River, and Nai River from west to east, the gathering place of Sanhe River.

Qingzhi Road is said to be covered with lapis lazuli from 100,000 volcanoes ten meters deep underground. This kind of stone naturally makes the strange heart disgusted, so compared to railway trains where strange events occur frequently, Qingzhi Road is safer.

Someone suggested building train tracks on Qingzhi Road back then, but unfortunately the project was too complicated, and crossing mountains and ridges were second. Many places went deep into the edge of the forbidden area and could not build railway tracks at all.

It is too much to build a dirt road at the door of someone else's house. You also want to run trains on it every day and make noise all day long. Isn't it a bit too much?

It's really weird to be a human being!

But in Mufasha's opinion, Qingshi Road is simply too slow, and this road cannot be passed through cars. It can only allow the carriage to act as footwork. Even if a carriage uses a strange beast as power, the distance of walking is only 200 to 300 kilometers per day. It will take at least ten days to reach the center of the empire.

This is still sleepless and rushing all the way, but this situation is basically impossible.

Especially in recent years, the Youth Road has been disrepairing and has become increasingly declining. There are occasional strange residency in the rare places, so it is not impossible to delay here for several months.

This is too slow!

The key is that now is the critical moment to compete for the Zhenyu Division, and the soldiers must be fast and fast. The planning of the endless bitter and cold land has failed, and there is not much time left for them to acquire the Zhenyu Division of other prefectures and cities.

So, in Mu Fasha's view, even to avoid the overlord of the mountain city, Li Wei, there is no need to escape into Qingzhi Road in shame.

"What do you know!"

"I have my own concerns, so stop talking nonsense!"

The Seventeenth Ancestor looked at Mu Fasha coldly, and the latter was so scared that he shivered and never dared to say more.

In fact, the Seventeenth Patriarch also had difficulty saying. Although he successfully escaped from the mountain city, the price he paid was extremely high.

Not to mention that he was almost killed by Zhao Li's resurrection, just talking about the condition that Li Wei forced him to agree to in the end, which made him feel like a thorn in his throat and difficult to swallow.

Li Wei actually asked him to use all his abilities to let the former enter the center of the empire!

This entry into the center of the empire is not just a few words, just bringing Li Wei to the center, but it is necessary to give Li the only seat in the power level of the empire center!

The most time is that he must be in the imperial elders' house, and he must be given a half-time position.

This is very difficult!

Almost a fantasy.

Even with the power of the Seventeenth Ancestor and the huge energy of the Mu family, it would be difficult for Li Wei to arrange such a seat for a while.

After all, there are only a dozen seats in the elders' council in the center of the empire, and everyone is staring at me. If you want to go in, how can you give it to Li Wei, who has never been revealed?

But if you don’t agree, you will die! Li Wei will probably release the Buddha ghost, just like swallowing the weight, and tear it apart and eat it alive.

The Seventeenth Ancestor didn't want to do this. Since he was beaten up by the King of Ghosts, he has taught him a lesson. Everything, even family affection, is not as important as his own life.

This is also one of the reasons why he condensed the life-saving wonder of death crow.

I have to agree, but I can only agree, and I can't regret it because...

The Seventeenth Ancestor quietly touched his left arm, and there was a strange mark that appeared on it, which looked like a pattern with an eye engraved in the middle of three triangles.

According to Li Wei, this is a ghost seal. Once it is stamped, it will be subordinate to the descendants of the judge of the underworld.

It is impossible to escape, cannot be removed, nor can it resist the will of the judge. Once you have a dishonest heart, you will surely die.

Of course, after being stamped with this mark, the Seventeenth Patriarch tried many methods, but could not erase them. Even if he used the backup body of the Death Crow, it would not work.

This thing was engraved in the depths of his soul, and he even had the illusion that even if he died, this strange mark could not be eliminated.

"Ghost Seal...Judge, the underworld...Li Wei has indeed a very powerful organization behind him. Perhaps the Three Prisons surrendered to him, including the proud figure of the Golden Sect, who also surrendered to him. It is most likely that this so-called judge...and the Ghost Seal."

The Seventeenth Ancestor thought secretly.

He noticed that Bai Jin seemed to have such a mark on him, and Li Wei also had it, as well as others around Li Wei.

People with marks can interact with each other.

The Seventeenth Ancestor could not understand why such a powerful figure in the Golden Sect, he actually defected to Li Wei, a small garbage who had not even entered the fourth floor. Now it seems that everything is because of this ghost seal!

"What is this? With my fifth level of ability, can't I get rid of it. Could it be that the so-called controller of the underworld, that is, the judge, is a professional who surpasses the fifth level?"

"The sixth floor in the legend?"

The Seventeenth Ancestor could not help but doubt this way. After all, even those old guys on the sixth level of half-step did not have such terrifying means as Ghost Seal.

Perhaps only the legendary sixth-level professionals are there, but he has never seen them.

"And once this thing is activated, it can actually imprison all non-ghost seal creatures with lower strength than themselves. With the level of the fifth level middle level, even the junior guys on the fifth level cannot break free when they activate the ghost seal with all their strength, and they cannot even sense... will, thinking, wonders, traits, professional abilities, etc. in the body will be frozen in an instant, just like now..."

The Seventeenth Patriarch quietly poured his power into the ghost seal. After an undetectable wave appeared, he saw that whether it was the wooden sand on the same carriage as him, or the professions in the carriage outside the carriage, including the strange beasts of the carriage, and even the plants on both sides of the green straight road and the insects in the grass were frozen.

It's like the confinement of time and space!

But the Seventeenth Patriarch understood that this was not a confinement of time and space, but a ability similar to a kind of will and energy that was bound by shock, and a direct erosion and pollution similar to the king of ghosts.

Can't resist at all

It is also impossible to form an effective countermeasure.

It can only be the spontaneous resistance of the traits in the body. With his ability, if he is imprisoned, it will take a full minute to break free.

"If the judge of the underworld had taken action directly, no, or even didn't have to take action. Even if he used this ghost seal slightly, I and the four masters would have no resistance at all. In one minute... there would be too many things that could be done."

"Hey...How could such a strong existence appear in the underworld? In this world... Could it be that someone can break through to the sixth level of the taboo without going crazy and dying?"

The Seventeenth Ancestor frowned. When he thought of the huge tomb and the three terrifying figures that appeared in the palace where ghost energy were condensed by Li Wei when he gave him this ghost seal, he felt chill and his whole body was numb.

You can't imagine it at all, but he was so shocked. The huge black shadow descended into Li Wei's body, and the evil and ominousness that was like the source of darkness was almost destroying the will of the Seventeenth Patriarch.

Under the gaze of that desperate existence, he could not raise any resistance at all. Obey, but obey!

In this way, in a daze, he was stamped with a ghost seal and became a person from the lineage of the judge of the underworld.

"According to the information obtained, there are eighteen veins in the underworld, and the judge commands the judge. In addition to the judge with unknown depth, there are two other veins... This... Damn, is this a ghost nest?"

The Seventeenth Ancestor was secretly shocked and took a deep breath. He had reason to believe that Li Wei suddenly made a Buddha ghost, and most of the things were from the Judge's lineage.

After all, when seeing the black shadow, the Seventeenth Ancestor always had the illusion of seeing the king of evil spirits again. No, it can be said that the power of the black shadow is even more terrifying and deeper and darker than that of the king of evil spirits.

It is completely the Ghost King among the Ghost Kings. If there are ghosts and gods, then it is the God among the Ghosts.

It cannot be described in words, and can only be called an indescribable person.

"It's completely on the pirate ship!" The Seventeenth Ancestor sighed, feeling bitter, but he couldn't find anyone to tell me. It's still a contemporary version of the suffering.

He really dared not resist!

After all, I was relying on cowards to avoid the hunting of the King of Ghosts, and now I have fallen directly into the ghost nest. How dare you make him have any idea of ​​resisting?

Joke, how do you think he was promoted to the fifth level? He was really a coward.

He lies straight into the coffin, and has been cowardly for hundreds of years, and has reached the fifth floor. Although he looks cold on the outside, he looks like a cold-hearted handsome man, but he is a little old man who is in a panic when he encounters a big problem.

You must be cowardly in everything, think twice before you act, do things in a sluggish manner, and turn around. These are advantages, not disadvantages.

Haven't you seen that those who are not cowardly have died long ago, and the grass on the grave is three feet high. For example, the Weaver Girl, who dominated the world back then, probably all of her bones are rotten and not decent.

Let’s not mention the Ghost Seal and the Judge for the time being. Anyway, the Seventeenth Ancestor felt that he had already boarded the pirate ship and could not get off the ground, so just hold it. After all, this pirate ship is not just a pirate ship, it is likely to be a ghost nest. Although it is very unsettling to deal with ghosts, isn’t it also thick?

If I had just embraced this, it would be much better than the Mu family's tower in the sky?

Although he is the seventeenth ancestor of the Mu family, he has no feelings for the Mu family. Moreover, the Mu family has now all turned to the imperial royal family. The sixteen ancestors in front of the Mu family know that only the sixteenth ancestors who are adjacent to him, the tenth ancestor and the seventh ancestors, these three ancestors are still hiding in the coffin board to survive.

The other ancestors were unable to determine whether they were dead or alive, and no one dared to confirm. The tomb areas of the ancestors’ tombs had become forbidden areas.

And the four living ancestors, including him, are relatively stable, the Sixteenth and Tenth ancestors, and can leave the coffin, and there is no problem with taking some action.

But the Seventh Ancestor's situation is relatively serious. He can no longer leave the coffin now, and he often talks nonsense in the coffin, and even has a little confused.

The taboo on the sixth level is a fate that every strong man on the fifth level cannot escape. He seems to have fallen into the abyss, just losing control or slowly dying.

Therefore, in the view of the Seventeenth Patriarch, the Mu family completely defected to the royal family, which was an unwise move. Maybe they would be swallowed by the hungry wolf in the royal family in one bite, and even a bone residue would not be left.

"It seems that it is quite wise for me to surrender to the judge of the underworld. Alas... I was also worried about the Mu family."

"And, I can't say that in a thousand years, I will be the one who has truly entered the sixth level among the Mu family? I am also a pioneer who has pioneered the way for the Mu family and is brave enough to contribute to myself."

By comforting himself like this, the Seventeenth Ancestor suddenly felt a little relieved and even felt full of motivation.
To be continued...
