Chapter 254

The scarred old man laughed: "It seems that I have really been away for too long; the disciples in the sect actually treat us as outsiders. The name Yin Eleven was used by me, but that was a long, long time ago; now call me Qin Lao."

The tiger-headed old man sighed: "Call me Zhuo Lao! The current Yin Jun praised you to the sky, saying how amazing you were in the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival, and that if he didn't protect you, you would be wiped out by hostile factions. This is not it, it successfully aroused our curiosity and led us to the center of this vortex of right and wrong. It's really a pit!"

The Nine Li Hidden Sect selects sixty hidden people and one Yin Jun every sixty years.

A sixty-year rotation.

The current Divine Hidden Person is naturally Li Youyi. The newest hidden person is Yin Twenty-Six, Seeing Yao Yin.

After thirty-four years, when Yin Sixty is selected, it will enter the next sixty-year cycle. At that time, Li Youyi will change from the Divine Hidden Person to the current Yin Jun.

The current Yin Jun is responsible for all matters inside and outside the Hidden Sect, can mobilize all hidden people and resources, and is also responsible for selecting and cultivating the next generation of Divine Hidden Person.

Theoretically, in special periods, even ancient hidden people must be mobilized by the current Yin Jun.

Qin Lao and Zhuo Lao are the two ancient hidden people invited out by the current Yin Jun with the Hidden Ancestor Order to protect Li Youyi.

Learning that they were seniors of the Hidden Sect, Yin Eleven instantly became arrogant: "Then how did we perform?"

"So-so!"

Qin Lao's gaze fell on Li Youyi, and he exchanged a glance with Zhuo Lao, bowing together.

Although the Divine Hidden Person has not yet grown up, he can sit on equal footing with them. Because the requirement of the Nine Li Hidden Sect for the Divine Hidden Person is that he must cultivate leadership qualities.

Only by giving a sufficiently high status can one cultivate leadership qualities.

Li Youyi returned the salute and asked: "Where is Yin Jun?"

Zhuo Lao said: "Went to the city to grab Longevity Pills, Dragon Seeds, and Dragon Bones, all for you guys. Originally, relying on the invitations and tickets you got, you could exchange for quite a few, but now only the old guys can do it themselves!"

"Don't talk nonsense! The current Yin Jun went to help the Zuoqiu Gate maintain order in the city; since their injuries have stabilized, we should also go and help. The Zuoqiu Gate definitely doesn't have enough manpower tonight, many people are looting, and the order is too chaotic."

Qin Lao pulled Zhuo Lao and rushed down the mountain eagerly.

Li Youyi asked: "Li Ling, is your brother born to your parents?"

Li Ling was stunned, not knowing why he asked such a sentence for no reason, but this... is definitely not a good word, and she snorted coldly at Li Youyi.

Li Youyi secretly admired Yin Jun, who always knew what he should do most at every time.

Although Cang Li was heavily injured and dying, Yin Jun staying behind seemed to be of no help, instead delaying the best time to seize Longevity Pills, Dragon Seeds, and Dragon Bones.

In his mind, he recalled it.

The Dragon Palace overturned, and various treasures flew to all parts of the city like a meteor shower.

Li Youyi slapped his thigh heavily, hating the two demon powerhouses who suddenly appeared, originally he could have redeemed quite a few treasures to lay a solid foundation for the Dao Seed Realm.

Now it's good, fighting to the death for half a month, and didn't get anything.

Can only hope that Yin Jun can have some gains there.

After all, so many Longevity Pills are not easy to refine, and the Due Temple may not be able to take out twenty more immediately. Dragon Seeds and Dragon Bones are even more unique; once lost, there can be no more.

Peach Plum Mountain is the safest place in Qiuzhouzhoucheng, shrouded in a large number of formations and runes.

On the third heaven, there is a concentrated area of buildings and cultivation caves, where the genius disciples of the Zuoqiu Gate's direct lineage almost all live.

Adjusting his breath for a moment, the injuries were temporarily suppressed.

Li Youyi ignored the obstruction of Yin Twenty-Four and Seeing Yao Yin, walked out of the hall, walked along a stone mountain road a zhang wide, and headed south, feeling extremely interested in the duel between the transcendent and the long-lived, as if his bloodline had been awakened, fanatical and excited.

This represents the direction of his future martial path, which is a height that must be pursued.

How strong is the strongest person in the world?

Is it really like in myths and legends, opening heaven and earth, omnipotent?

The houses and halls on the third heaven were all built along the cliff, with ancient and huge peach trees growing, and the peach blossoms on the trees were in full bloom, constantly falling like snowflakes.

Yin Twenty-Four and Seeing Yao Yin followed him closely on the left and right, supporting him.

Arriving at the cliff edge near the Nancheng, Li Youyi mobilized magic power to his eyes, looking into the distance, only able to see huge demon shadows flying past outside the formation light veil, emitting powerful auras.

Below, the outer city of the Nancheng was shattered.

Houses all collapsed, the earth tore, and seawater backflowed. In the ruins, I don't know how many residents died miserably.

But the inner city was intact, in the form of the Eight Trigrams, solid as a golden soup.

"Whoosh! Whoosh..."

Eight light pillars rose from the eight small Dao domains in the eight city districts of the inner city, combined with the light pillar rising from Peach Plum Mountain. Instantly, formation scripts rose continuously from the ground of the entire city, protecting Qiuzhouzhoucheng into a sea of formation script light.

Li Youyi said: "Did they not break into the city? I remember the city-protecting formation light veil seemed to be torn open, and terrifying figures broke in."

Behind him came a steady and thick voice: "If Qiuzhouzhoucheng were so easy to break, then, in the entire Lingxiao Life Realm, they could push horizontally anywhere!"

Li Youyi looked back, his eyes full of surprise, and hurriedly saluted: "Greetings, Family Head."

Zuoqiu Ling is both the Lingxiao First Rank and the Family Head of the Zuoqiu Gate.

Of course, family heads like them, just like the current Yin Jun of the Nine Li Hidden Sect, are only responsible for human affairs.

Things above the long-lived are not things they can solve.

The consensus of the martial arts world is that the Dao Seed Realm is the strongest in the human world, while the Longevity Realm no longer belongs to the category of mortals, but is a creature competing for longevity with heaven and earth. Before the ten-year war broke out, the Longevity Realm almost never participated in human affairs, only pursuing cultivation and longevity.

Zuoqiu Ling was more than two meters tall, very tall and handsome, wearing armor, ready to fight at any time.

This person, known as the "sitting like a divine mountain, lying like a dark dragon, walking chasing the sun and moon" peerless powerhouse, was not as cold and arrogant as in the legends, his eyes quite gentle.

He added: "It's not that simple! The main city and important places of the ten-thousand-gate sect, after thousands of years of layout, even if the Martial Dao Son of Heaven arrives, they can resist for a period of time. If it were so easy to break through, the Second Palace Master would have long led the transcendent of the imperial court to destroy the mountain gates of the righteous army one by one."

Li Youyi's nervous and worried heart was temporarily put down: "Is Zuoqiu Hong alright?"

"She is fine, but has not woken up yet." Zuoqiu Ling said.

"Boom!"

In the inner city area below the mountain, a hidden, powerful Dead Ash rushed toward a Dao domain in the Nancheng, wanting to destroy the formation light pillar rising in the Dao domain.

His body burned and shattered.

Sparks flew out, turning into a rain of fire covering several miles of the city area.

But it did not form an Ash Region and was dissolved by the city-protecting formation.

From that Dao domain, countless runes rushed out, blocking all the destructive energy.

Zuoqiu Ling snorted: "I guessed long ago that they would arrange manpower in the city in advance, wanting to break the formation from the inside; how could it be that easy?"

In the inner city, demon race and Ash Spirit powerhouses appeared one after another, attacking the formation eyes of the Dao domains in the eight city districts.

There were many experts from major factions in the city, and they soon suppressed and killed them all.

"Woof! Woof..."

From the depths of the void came the sound of barking, like thunder, echoing throughout the thousand-mile land.

An old dog as tall as a mountain came stepping on the plain land, its body thin, its teeth sharp, spitting gray mist from its mouth. It was covered in spots, its hair falling out severely, and the remaining long hair was dark red.

Where its soles stepped, the grass and trees withered, and the dead aura permeated into blood pool pits.

It specifically chose areas where humans gathered to move forward, and wherever it passed, it either swallowed the common people of a large town into its belly with demon wind, or just by the dead aura emitted from its body, it caused countless civilians to die.

Arriving at the Soldier Ancestor Marsh battlefield, the old dog attacked a transcendent who came to the Northern Region.

Zuoqiu Ling recognized the origin of the old dog, his face gloomy: "It is the Western Region Rong thief, the ancestor of the Dog Rong, this old fellow actually hasn't died yet."

The Four-Pole Ape King appeared on the horizon, like the Heartless Golden Ape, with four arms, sharp sword teeth in its mouth, and demon clouds gathering for hundreds of miles above its head.

Its head was huge, with a five-colored mountain on top, five elements gathering, holding a war spear burning with flames, hundreds of meters long, as thick as a millstone, weighing I don't know how many tens of thousands of jin.

Walking into the Soldier Ancestor Marsh, stepping on the seabed to run, attacking the carriage of the Second Palace Master.

One transcendent after another of the Far West Ash Region faction arrived, the momentum was unprecedentedly grand, it was a posture to truly destroy the Zuoqiu Gate.

The older generation powerhouses of the imperial court and the major righteous armies could not stay out of it, because Qilin Zang was prepared to take this opportunity to kill them all together.

Two silver light brilliance illuminated the night.

There were demon race creatures flying over the sky of Qiuzhouzhoucheng, arrogant to the extreme.

Li Youyi looked up, instantly breathless, his heart stopped beating.

It was an eagle, two wings covering the North and South cities, its whole body emitting a prehistoric aura. Its silver wings slashed toward the city-protecting formation light veil above Qiuzhouzhoucheng, which was where the formation defense was relatively weak.

There were silver feathers piercing in, silver light spilling over the whole city, dragging toward the south, like a silver blade splitting heaven and earth, domineering.

It did not break the formation.

The city-protecting light veil was not just one layer, and with the continuous gushing of magic Qi from the Heavenly Law Earth Spring, the light veil could be repaired.

"It is the Silver-Feather Eagle King of the Eight Thousand Mile Yin Mountain in the Northern Region; two of the four demon kings of the Life Realm have appeared!" Zuoqiu Ling's mood sank, no longer having the confidence he had earlier, very afraid that the other two demon kings would also appear.

Qilin Zang came aggressively, gathering the transcendent of the world; if it could not destroy the Zuoqiu Gate, this first battle of its return would not be loud, and it would be very damaging to morale.

The ancestor of the Dog Rong was not among the four demon kings.

The four demon kings, considering themselves the orthodox demon race, studied human law codes, learned human culture and skills, and got along relatively well with human martial cultivators, so they could each occupy a vast territory in the twenty-eight states.

The ancestor of the Dog Rong belonged to the evil demon, wandering between the Nether Realm and the Life Realm, only able to support human Rong thieves as a faction under its banner, and had no demon race territory of its own.
