Douluo's Mistake

The green grass, towering trees, and the occasional clear chirping of birds are simply another replica of the Star Forest.

Shen Yeyan wandered aimlessly in this seemingly ordinary forest, but there seemed to be no soul beast in it, and even the sky seemed to be frozen. He had been wandering in it for at least five hours, but the sun Still hanging high in the sky, it was blindingly bright.

There was no sign of panic, Shen Yeyan was still somewhat interested in this strange place.

After bidding farewell to Tang San and Dugu Bo, he didn't let Mo Xie follow him and came to the boundary stone in the Star Dou Forest alone. After observing it for a long time, he didn't see any doorway, but he found a relatively complete stone. The runes are a bit strange.

Shen Yeyan had seen this rune in an ancient book, and one stroke in it was somewhat different from the one on the boundary stone.

I tried to break it with my hands, but the small piece of rock where the different strokes of the rune were located was a little loose, and some fine sand and gravel fell off in the process.

Directly using soul power to take it out, the moment Shen Yeyan looked away, a layer of golden-green light passed over the stone.

Sure enough, there was a stroke on the back of the removed stone that was completely opposite to the front. Shen Yeyan turned it around and put it back. The stone fit perfectly with the other strokes to smoothly form an ancient rune, which meant - wind.

wind?

Shen Yeyan's eyes brightened slightly, and he raised his right hand and pressed it on the entire rune. However, compared to the font and size of the ancient rune, his right hand with clear joints seemed a bit small.

The continuous infusion of soul power was different from the one used when the stone was just removed. This time, Shen Yeyan's soul power was also mixed with some other energy, and a strange pattern appeared on his forehead.

It is a bit similar to the veins of a certain plant leaf, and a bit like the rough texture of a certain flower. It is composed of only a few simple strokes. It is golden green, roughly consistent with the light that flashed on the stone just now, but with a little more red. Light.

More than half of the soul power was consumed. Shen Yeyan felt that the light was shining brightly in front of him, and his mind was dizzy. The next moment, he appeared in the forest.

Moving forward slowly, Shen Yeyan looked around, but he couldn't see anything except flowers, grass and trees. There were birds chirping in the forest from time to time, but he walked for such a long time and didn't see a single one. What's amazing is that , and he didn't feel the slightest bit tired.

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

This place is interesting.

The sky was already dark in this place, so it was naturally impossible to measure time. No matter how long it took or how far they walked, Shen Yeyan finally saw other things besides trees.

Only a corner was exposed in the distance, and it looked like a pile of rocks.

The closer we got, the full picture of the "pile of rocks" gradually emerged.

This is a dilapidated and old altar. The majesty and solemnity when it was intact can still be seen vaguely. Judging from the remaining rune marks and carving decorations, the builder of this altar must be very wealthy, and the worship must be unusual. powerful.

Walking to the edge of the altar, broken walls were scattered all over the ground. At Shen Yeyan's feet were a few stones with fonts engraved on them. If they were put together, they would probably be something like a stone tablet.

Due to the age of one of the stones, most of the characters on it have been worn away until they are invisible. The others are fine, and the words "sacrifice", "god" and "altar" can be vaguely distinguished.

"An altar for worshiping gods?"

Shen Yeyan stepped over the stones, took a few steps forward, and stood in front of the steps of the weather-beaten altar.

As we all know, on the Douluo Continent, the highest level of a soul master is the level 99 titled Douluo, but in fact there is another level above this, which is the god level.

In order to live forever, or to seek power, different soul masters began to try their best to find ways to become gods. Unfortunately, only a few of the few succeeded.

If you want to become a god, you must first be a level 99 peak Douluo, and then you must find the corresponding god's position on your own and become the successor. After passing the test of the god's position, you can enter the god realm, achieve the position of god, and reach Another realm.

There are many gods, and there is a huge gap in strength between gods with and without gods. Some soul masters will never encounter one in their entire lives, while some may not have this strength but have encountered them several times.

Shen Yeyan raised his foot and stepped forward.

As he walked towards the altar step by step, he always felt that there was something different. This altar always gave him a strange feeling.

Standing in the center of the altar, Shen Yeyan looked up at the sky. He suddenly remembered the main reason why he appeared in this forest, the ancient character he saw on the boundary stone of the Star Forest.

wind.

"Could it be that this is the Altar of the Wind God?" Shen Yeyan lowered his head and couldn't help but smile.

Immediately, an extremely cold voice sounded in his mind.

"The fourth test of the Nine Wind God Examinations is to find the Wind God Altar. Complete it ahead of schedule. The reward will be doubled and in advance. Wind element affinity will be 20%, and Tianyi Dream Time will last for two hours."

"Would you like to enter immediately?"

Some of the people who inherit the gods have reached the peak of their strength and actively search for a certain purpose and work hard to pass the test. Others have outstanding talents and accidentally discovered that the gods were appointed as successors. They are the successors from the extreme. The test started early and was completed one by one as one's own strength grew.

In Shen Yeyan's case, it was naturally the latter. The god he inherited was the God of Wind, or the new lord of the gods took the initiative to find him.

The first test of the Nine Wind God Tests is to find and obtain the Wind Spirit Mark.

He has already completed this and obtained 15% wind element affinity and the artifact Qiong Yi, as well as a flute music score, but the music is incomplete and there are only a few intact music scores.

Of course, with Shen Yeyan's current strength, he couldn't even exert one ten thousandth of the power of this artifact. These few ordinary flute songs were enough for him.

What is going on is the second test of the Nine Wind God Exams, where he is condensing his own soul bones.

For them half-beasts, this is sometimes early and sometimes late. Good talents naturally gather sooner. In addition to innateness, it also depends on the right time, place, people, and some coincidences.

All in all, in one sentence, this matter cannot be rushed.

However, Shen Yeyan never expected that due to this mistake, he would jump directly to the fourth test and complete the test ahead of schedule.

"It's really hard to find anywhere without wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort to get here." Shen Yeyan chuckled secretly.

Sitting down cross-legged, Shen Yeyan muttered in his heart: "Enter Tianyi's dream immediately."

Tianyi's dreamland is a dark space with many light spots, which come from the power of faith of people who believe in the wind god. It is of great benefit to the soul. Of course, it also has a great effect on improving the soul power.

These powers of faith not only come from Douluo Continent, but also from many other worlds - although there is only one God Realm, it is connected to thousands of small worlds, and the power of faith from countless worlds is naturally very huge.

These were all told to him by Kun Yi, the god of wind this year, who asked him to come to the door in person.

Entering Tianyi's dreamland, it was indeed very different from what Kun Yi said. As soon as Shen Yeyan entered, the light spots quickly gathered around him and surrounded him, but they seemed to be caring and kept some distance from him. As if he is sane.

Apart from these light spots, Shen Yeyan could not see any light, and even his feet were in darkness and nothingness. His whole person had an unreal feeling of falling downwards, but he still seemed to be standing on the ground, without the feeling of floating in the air.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Yeyan adjusted his breathing, closed his eyes and began to absorb these light spots. Thousands of power of faith came towards him and gradually integrated into his body.

The warm and comfortable feeling made Shen Yeyan's body gradually relax, and then a strange scene appeared, with countless light spots lifting his completely relaxed body.

This time Shen Yeyan was really floating in the air.

He was lying on a soft bed made of the power of faith. His tied black hair hung down and was constantly raised by the flying light spots. Countless power of faith poured into this person one after another, endless. The earth came from near and far, illuminating a small piece of heaven and earth in the huge dream of Tianyi. His face was exquisite, just like a sleeping ancient god.

Shen Yeyan's body was trying its best to absorb the overwhelming power of faith, but his consciousness gradually fell to a place he had never seen before.

Opening his eyes, Shen Yeyan found that he was standing in the middle of a busy street, surrounded by all kinds of people, either hawking or choosing. He seemed to be the most unsociable person on this street.

Am I not in Tianyi dreamland?How would it appear here?

Shen Yeyan didn't have time to think about it. On this side, a weak-looking man in white clothes but riding a fierce horse was running towards him. Pedestrians around him gave way and kept looking at this man and talking about something. There was excitement in his expression.

Looking at this person, something suddenly appeared in Shen Yeyan's mind, as if someone had forced a memory into his mind.

This is the Yan Kingdom, a world without martial arts and soul power. The enemy of the Yan Kingdom is the Huns on the border.

Gu Yansheng, whose courtesy name is Hanyi, is the legitimate son of the Gu family, the most aristocratic family in the capital.

The Gu family is well-known throughout the entire continent. Old Mrs. Gu was a mighty general who protected the Yan Kingdom for his whole life. Unfortunately, he died on the battlefield early. Old Mrs. Gu was a ruthless character who would not be outdone by women. Until now, she is still in court. There is still a place in the world, but because he is too old, he asks to stay in the Gu family to take care of himself.

Mrs. Gu raised one son and one daughter. The eldest daughter, Gu Mingshu, married into the royal family at a young age and is now the imperial concubine. Since the queen's position was vacant, she was in charge of the Sixth Palace. The second son, Gu Mingxuan, Gu Yansheng's father, was in charge of the court. After taking up the post of prime minister, he married Bai Ran, the eldest daughter of the Bai family, who was slightly less powerful than the Gu family, and became a close friend of Qin and Jin.

Naturally, there were constant intrigues in the emperor's harem. Gu Mingshu took the position of imperial concubine. The price for this was that she could not have children. However, she did not feel depressed. Instead, she tried her best to seek for the Gu family and regarded the Gu family as everything.

At this point, there is only one child in the Gu family, Gu Yansheng, who has been pampered since he was a child. Gu Mingshu treats him as his own child, but fortunately, he did not raise him.

Gu Yansheng completely inherited the fine bloodline of Mrs. Gu and Gu Mingxuan. Not only was he familiar with music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he was also proficient in swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks. He had been on the battlefield since he was a child, fighting bloody battles with the Huns on the border, and made great military exploits. Now, he was awarded the title of General at the age of 22, and became a legend of the Yan Kingdom, a hero in the hearts of the common people, and the yearning admiration of countless young girls in Huaichun.

The old and indulgent emperor was dying soon. When he looked back, he found that all his children were unable to hold up the wall. Then he remembered that the son he had born to a palace maid when he was drunk more than ten years ago was about the same. At the age of eleven or twelve, the palace maid had died long ago, and the child was left alone to live in this cold palace.

The old emperor immediately issued an order to summon Gu Yansheng back to the capital and named him the imperial master to teach the sixteenth prince who had been forgotten by everyone for many years.

After all, the old emperor believed that the Gu family would never betray him, or in other words, the Yan State.

At this time, Gu Yansheng rode directly on the street because of the old emperor's imperial edict. Shen Yeyan was the only one left in the middle of the street. He subconsciously wanted to release his martial spirit, but found that there was no reaction at all.

Seeing that this man was about to hit Shen Yeyan, Gu Yansheng seemed to have not seen him and had no intention of stopping.

What surprised Shen Yeyan was that Gu Yansheng's horse actually passed through him, as if he didn't exist at all. Then, Shen Yeyan was pushed straight forward by an invisible force, and he had to keep up. This person, Shen Yeyan's speed was more than twice as fast as before!

After several trials, he found that he could only follow Gu Yansheng here. Wherever he went, Shen Yeyan had to go, and he could not go four meters away from this person.

Shen Yeyan just followed the young general, watching him bring the sixteenth prince Yan Li who was still in the cold palace to the Zhaoyue Palace - this was specially rewarded by the emperor, and then took Yan Li with him to teach him carefully. Almost everything was given to him, and when the old emperor passed away a few years later, he supported Yanli to ascend to the throne, and Gu Mingshu became the queen mother.

I have to say that General Gu really tried his best to teach the prince, and raised Yan Li from a child who was ignorant and a little afraid of the world to an emperor who can stand alone without being angry and self-defeating. He is really a genius.

The Gu family is truly a loyal family...

Seeing Gu Yansheng and the Gu family laughing and joking, Shen Yeyan couldn't help but have a flash of envy in his eyes.

However, why did Yan Li, who had always been well-behaved in front of Gu Yansheng, look at his imperial master and his eyes gradually changed from the initial admiration and admiration to Shen Yeyan's confusion, a bit like, like...

He didn't know what it looked like specifically, but he felt like he had seen it somewhere.

All the peace was broken in the sixth year after Yan Li became emperor.

The Gu family was imprisoned for collaborating with the enemy and treason, and all the remaining branches were slaughtered. The Bai family was also implicated. The Queen Mother committed suicide in fear of crime. In the end, only Mrs. Gu, Gu Mingxuan and Gu Mingxuan were still in the prison. Bai Ran, and Gu Yansheng, who was under house arrest by Yan Li in the palace.

It all happened so fast that no one had time to react.

Gu Yansheng only knew that he was under house arrest in Zhaoyue Palace and had no idea what was happening in the outside world. By the time he knew everything, he had been locked on the bed in the main hall of Zhaoyue Palace by Yan Li.

"Your Majesty, how could you? You clearly know that it is impossible for the Gu family to collaborate with the enemy and treason!" Gu Yan's face was full of shock and anger.

"Why can't I? If I want to keep you, of course I will break off all your wings!" There was a hint of madness in Yan Li's eyes.

Gu Yansheng looked at Yan Li with a bit of strangeness in his eyes: "...What?"

Yan Li stood by the bed, looking down at Gu Yansheng who was tightly bound by the iron chain: "You have taught me for so long, but I still don't have the courage to keep you, Han Yi, you really want to leave all the time... ...Ha, if you want to leave my side, it will never be possible!"

Gu Yansheng remained silent and said nothing.

"You have been pretending to be stupid for so many years, are you still pretending now? My Lord Imperial Master? Do you really not know what I am thinking?"

Gu Yansheng closed his eyes, seeming to be escaping from something.

But Yanli didn't give him this chance: "I love you, Hanyi."

Shen Yeyan on the side opened his mouth and stared blankly at the scene in front of him.

How...how did it become like this?

Gu Yansheng is the object of admiration in the hearts of countless girls in the Yan Kingdom. Her appearance is naturally exquisite and indescribable. At this time, she has long dark hair and is bound by iron chains on the bed. Her face is pale because of the affairs of the Gu family. This rare fragile posture is really hard to find. control.

"Yan Li, do you know what you are talking about?" Gu Yansheng opened his eyes and looked at Yan Li again. He pursed his lips tightly and called him by his first name this time.

"Of course I know, I'm more awake than I've ever been in my life!"

"Okay, I won't argue with you about this." Gu Yansheng's voice was trembling, with tears in his eyes and an excited expression, "But... Auntie is innocent... Why did you kill her?! You have the ability to attack her I'm coming! Don't hurt my family!"

Yan Li's eyes darkened, and he slightly raised the corners of his lips, but the angle made the smile look a bit cold: "Okay."

For a moment, Gu Yansheng and Shen Yeyan were stunned.

Yan Li smiled coldly and leaned forward directly.

"Yan Li! What are you doing?! Get away!!!" Unfortunately, Gu Yansheng was given Ruanjin San in advance and locked with iron chains. Gu Yansheng couldn't resist.

At this time, Yan Li's deep voice sounded, enough for everyone in the room to hear clearly: "Didn't you say that if I come to you, don't hurt your family? Don't forget, your parents and grandmother are all here. In the sky prison, if you just say a word, their lives will be gone, how about that?"

Inside the house, the sound of the iron chains clanging gradually disappeared, replaced by hoarse gasps, suppressed moans and sobs.

Shen Yeyan couldn't leave Gu Yansheng's side, so he could only turn away and not see this scene, but those voices penetrated into his mind all-pervasively, and he could only close his eyes again like a bell.

Perhaps it was because of his love, but in the end, Yan Li did not rape Gu Yansheng and took the initiative to choose the lower position.

After that night, Shen Yeyan suddenly found that he could leave Gu Yansheng's side. He followed Yan Li to the imperial study room, where the newly appointed prime minister, Ji Lan, a very talented subordinate of Gu Mingxuan, was already waiting there.

Unlike other ministers who treated Yan Li with sincerity and fear, Ji Lan did not kneel down immediately after seeing him. Instead, he came up and said: "Your Majesty, do you regret it?"

Yan Li glanced at him lightly.

Afterwards, Shen Yeyan was sent back to Gu Yansheng by that strange force.

In the next three years, Yan Li came to Zhaoyue Palace many times, but Shen Yeyan could no longer leave Gu Yansheng's side. He watched the light in Gu Yansheng's eyes gradually disappear, and his eyes gradually became gray and lifeless.

Mrs. Gu was in extremely poor health. She was so angry that she gave up her health a few months after entering the prison. Only Gu Mingshu and Bai Ran were left barely alive in the prison.

But the Gu family is still the same Gu family after all. Even if there are only three people left now, even if they are imprisoned for collaborating with the enemy and treason, many people still believe in them. Even if Yan Li is on guard, there are still people who bring the news of Gu Yansheng into the prison. , Gu Mingxuan and Bai Ran were naturally in disbelief, but they still managed to suppress their inner grief and asked to see Yan Li for the first time.

In the past three years, the more time passed by, the more Yan Li came to look for Gu Yansheng not only to do that, but also to chat and talk, and from time to time he would find some rare things to make people laugh. Unfortunately, the effect was very little, and Gu Yansheng was still the same. He seemed to be ignoring them, but then he received the news that the two wanted to see him.

Yan Li did not refuse and went to Tianlao himself.

The outcome of the meeting was naturally not good. Gu Mingxuan and Bai Ran committed suicide in front of Yan Li in order to save their son.

Yan Li is so angry that he threatens me?

He strictly prohibited others from spreading the news to Gu Yansheng, but there were so many people talking about it, how could they stop it?

Gu Yansheng still knew.

Shen Yeyan saw the last light in his eyes extinguished.

That night, Gu Yansheng used the chains that had bound him for three years to free himself.

Shen Yeyan wanted to stop it, but unfortunately he couldn't touch anything here, and no one knew about his existence. Everything was a foregone conclusion.

By the time Yan Li arrived, he was already out of breath.

Seeing Yan Li collapse while holding Gu Yansheng's body, Shen Yeyan suddenly remembered the conversation he heard when he left Gu Yansheng for the first and only time to go elsewhere.

"Your Majesty, do you regret it?"

"I never regret it."

And right now...

"Don't... Hanyi, Hanyi... I regret it, I really regret it, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, no matter what, I will change it, I will change it, don't leave... You come back, as long as you come back, I'll let you go...really, I'm not going to lie to you, I'll let you go and let you out of the palace...come back, Hanyi...come back...don't leave me..."

The eagle that was supposed to soar in the sky had its wings broken, and he found freedom in another way.

Shen Yeyan's eyes were blank, and he suddenly didn't know what he was thinking or what he should think.

The scene was frozen in the scene of Yan Li holding Gu Yansheng's body and crying bitterly, but Shen Yeyan had returned to Tianyi's dreamland.

He didn't know when his body had returned to its original state and his consciousness had just returned when the voice informed him that two hours had expired. When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to the ruined altar.

"Heir, do you want to exit this situation? If you don't answer for five seconds, it will be considered a default."

"five four three two one."

"I have exited the Wind God Realm, and it has been four months since the successor entered."

The next moment, Shen Yeyan appeared next to the boundary stone of the Star Forest. The ancient rune had returned to its previous wrong appearance.

Four months?

Shen Yeyan looked up at the sky, which was still blue.

The two hours in Tianyi's dream were not only his four months, but also the length of his life, from youthful glory to suicide.

He spent his whole life with him.
