the first emperor

Chapter 22

In the middle of the night, Xi Qianye closed his eyes and meditated.

Suddenly, a cold breath appeared in the room, as if the midsummer in June had suddenly turned into the twelfth lunar month of winter.

A strange figure in black clothes and a black robe appeared in front of the bed, standing there quietly, his pupils emitting green light, like a ghost.

Xi Qianye slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the black-robed man in front of him expressionlessly, as if there was no surprise, his expression was very calm.

A look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the man in black robe, he did not expect this young man to be so calm.

"You surprised me." A hoarse voice sounded from under the black robe.

"Break into Zhanspear Academy without authorization, the crime is not small, aren't you afraid of Zhanspear Academy chasing and killing you?" Xi Qianye said indifferently.

"It's not that everyone is afraid of War Spear Academy." The man in black said noncommittally.

"It seems that you have a great background." Xi Qianye nodded.

"Young man, it's been a long time since a young man like you has made me look at you differently. I'm curious and amazed, what method did you use to restrain the Nether Evil Poison."

The man in black stared at Xi Qianye with piercing eyes, and his voice was hoarse with a trace of solemnity.

No one understands the horror of Nether Poison better than him.

A venerable man was injected with ghostly poison into his blood vessels, and it is feared that he would not be able to save him.

"It turns out that because of the ghost poison, you should inject the ghost poison in Zhang Yuanguo's body."

A flash of understanding flashed in Xi Qianye's eyes, the Nether Poison that Zhang Yuanjiao was poisoned by was not the original poison, otherwise he would not have survived today.Someone collected the diluted ghost poison and injected it into his blood vessels, which caused this.

Looking at it now, it was obvious that someone did this on purpose, Zhang Yuanyu was just a victim, in order to find someone who could solve the Nether Evil Poison.

"You know a lot about Nether Poison?" the man in black stared at Xi Qianye and said.

"At least you know better than you, but I advise you not to touch it." Xi Qianye said lightly.

"It doesn't matter what you say. From now on, your life is beyond your control." The man in black said coldly.

"What are you going to ask me to do? Is it related to the ghost poison?" Xi Qianye asked with interest.

The black-robed man grinned, "You'll know when the time comes."

It was dark before his eyes, and a gust of wind blew through the window. Xi Qianye felt someone grab him in his hand, and disappeared into the darkness like lightning.

……

An unnamed small valley, about [-] kilometers away from Warspear City, has already crossed three or four counties, and is located in the north of Xiling Kingdom.

The Youluo Mountains are well-known in the Nanman Land, spanning more than a dozen countries and covering a wide area.

The area of ​​Xiling Kingdom is only one-tenth of the Youluo Mountain Range even in the Youluo Mountain Range.

As a large primitive forest, the Youluo Mountains is full of natural dangers, poisonous insects, snakes and ants are dormant, birds and beasts are everywhere, dangerous natural weather may appear at any time, and crises are everywhere.

Of course, a pristine place like this belongs to an untouched treasure trove of untouched nature.

Every year, many adventurers from many countries enter the Youluo Mountains to hunt for treasure. In folklore, stories about adventurers and the Youluo Mountains are often heard.

At this time, in the small valley, there were more than a dozen people in black robes. They wrapped themselves in black robes, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and they had a gloomy and strange temperament.

There is only one exception, that is a young man in white, standing quietly in the valley like a vigorous green pine.

"Xi Qianye, do you know what is the scariest thing in the Youluo Mountain Range?" A strange shadow appeared beside Xi Qianye, making a low and hoarse voice.

"The most frightening thing is not the powerful monsters that you may encounter anywhere, not the ancient ruins left over from ancient times that are full of dangers, but those unpredictable natural disasters that may appear in front of you in an instant."

Youying is faint and authentic. He has seen it with his own eyes. A black wind suddenly blows and swallows a large forest on the ground. A large number of adventurers in the area are not spared, and all of them disappeared mysteriously, including a venerable top powerhouse.

"No matter how dangerous it is, you guys are here too." Xi Qianye said noncommittally.

"I'm just telling you that the place we are going to is very dangerous. It is even more dangerous than those sudden natural disasters. You'd better be mentally prepared. If you can't help us, you will die inside." You Ying said coldly.

"Since it's dangerous, why come here?" Xi Qianye said calmly.

"The road of practice has never been smooth. If you don't work hard, you will be eliminated." You Ying looked at the clouds above the valley, which was infinitely vast.He has been practicing so far, he has experienced countless dangers, and almost died a few times, but he has survived and achieved his current status.

It is impossible for any cultivator to succeed by luck. Without blood and tears, there will be no glory and glory.

"What you said is quite reasonable, but there is a saying that each person has his own destiny. You may not be able to go far, and you may reach the end soon." Xi Qianye said lightly.

"Haha, you seem to be warning me? It's a pity that you are not qualified to make me vigilant. If it weren't for the way you know to restrain the ghost poison, a little monk like you would be of no value to me."

The black-robed man laughed strangely. Xi Qianye's threats made him feel ridiculous. A little guy in the spiritual realm could be so calm in front of him.

"Are you curious about the purpose of our trip? In fact, it's okay to tell you, anyway, you will know sooner or later." The man in black touched his chin and said with great interest: "If there are venerables like us, maybe every country has one It is extremely respected in the land, and it belongs to the top of the pyramid. But it is nothing on the land of Nanman. Only by becoming a saint, becoming a legendary saint, is the master of the land of Nanman."

"The Xiling Kingdom you are in is a country without saints. A few decades ago, the only saint in your Xiling Kingdom died on the battlefield among the nations. And a country without saints will decline sooner or later. From now on Disappeared across the land."

The man in black said with emotion that the Xiling Kingdom has been sanctified for decades, and it has been declining more and more. It is afraid that it will not be able to survive the next battle among the nations.

"Then you have found the opportunity to become a saint? It's in the Youluo Mountain Range." Xi Qianye smiled.

"Sanctification is not that simple. It is an insurmountable moat. There are so many great sages in Xiling Kingdom, and no one has any hope of becoming a saint." The man in black shook his head and said lightly: "We just found a It's just a cemetery for saints."

Saints Cemetery!
No wonder these people are so motivating!
A saint is comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator among immortal cultivators.

The Nascent Soul can fly into the sky and hide from the earth, move mountains and fill seas.

If it appears on a small star like the earth, it can directly break free from the shackles of the world, fly up to nine heavens, and travel in the void.

Xi Qianye has practiced for more than 1000 years in the harsh environment of the earth and has not reached the Nascent Soul Stage.
