The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 914 Vientiane Star Territory

Emperor Kumu can naturally feel the pit of this demonic body, and it is obviously closely related to Luochuan.

 But so what, offending once is still an offense, and offending a few more times is still an offense. No one can resist the temptation of a demonic body on the other side. This demonic body reminded Emperor Kumu that this couple was Luochuan's enemy. If he wanted to eliminate Luochuan's future troubles, cooperating with this couple was the best solution.

Compared with this, losing face in public before was actually a trivial matter. At least he was given a treasure and his attitude was good.

The atmosphere completely changed for a moment. The two sides who were fighting just now suddenly seemed like old friends who had known each other for many years. A very hearty smile appeared on the old face of the dead tree emperor, and he loudly issued an order: "Go and get my treasure of ten thousand years of immortal dew. , today I conspired to get drunk with Zhao Daoyou and his wife."

As he spoke, he took Zhao Changhe's hand affectionately and led him down to the top of the mountain: "To be honest, I haven't had a visitor for at least 30,000 years... Fellow Taoist Zhao, don't think it's rough."

"Lingshan Cave is so interesting, so why should it be ugly?" Zhao Changhe also answered in a graceful manner, looking like a literati leisurely traveling in the fairyland.

Ye Jiuyou followed him with a smile but not a smile, and was also looking at him.

 The top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, and it feels like a fairyland when you are in it. There is a stone table on the edge of the cliff. There are nineteen vertical and horizontal lines carved on the stone table, which look like a chessboard. A green pine stands on the edge, with its diagonal branches extending out, covering the top of the stone table, forming a natural umbrella, providing welcome shade.

The three of them took their seats, and Zhao Changhe whispered to Ye Jiuyou: "People like Yuxu and Guichen must like this kind of place and this kind of practice."

Ye Jiuyou bit her ear and replied, "Why didn't you say that Tang Wanzhuang also likes her?"

 “Evening makeup likes to be where I am.”

 “Bah.”

“After all, the meaning is different. You see, this dead wood emperor is named Emperor, but he actually likes to be alone.”

Ye Jiuyou nodded. Perhaps for people like them who have been in seclusion for thousands of years, it is difficult to have any relatives and friends. The so-called friendship in the team is just a short-term meeting during the exploration of the secret realm, and that's all. These thousands of miles of mountains are all owned by this emperor. It looks like a sect, but in fact he doesn't know many people.

 Eternal life is lonely.

 But they are no longer.

Seeing the young couple whispering to each other, Emperor Kumu laughed dumbly and stretched out his hand to refill the wine for the two of them: "It is really rare for the two of you to practice together like this as a Taoist couple."

Ye Jiuyou asked: "Why? Don't you talk about the harmony of yin and yang?"

Emperor Kumu shook his head and looked dull: "Time can dilute too many things. No matter how good a Taoist couple is, there will be no need to miss them after tens of millions of years. The pursuit of the great road is a journey with no end in sight."

Zhao Changhe said: "So your heart is like a dead tree?"

Emperor Kumu was stunned for a moment, then laughed dumbly: "It does have something to do with it."

These words made Zhao Changhe and Ye Jiuyou look at each other again, with similar thoughts in mind. The dead tree emperor was actually a lover, and his Taoist name was a memorial.

 The cooperation of lovers will be slightly more reassuring than the dark forest, at least it will not only involve naked interests. Even if friendship will fade over time, that will also happen in the future.

Emperor Kumu was sighing: "It is rare for a Taoist couple to still love each other after practicing to such an extent... When I saw the two of you, I sighed a little."

Ye Jiuyou said in a sour tone: "There are more than two of you."

Dijun Deadwood: “…”

 Zhao Changhe lowered his head and drank.

Emperor Kumu didn't have time to taste the jealousy and embarrassment of the young man and woman, so his expression changed slightly. I secretly thought in my heart that I have no control over how many of you there are. Most of the demonic cultivators are those who have collected over ten thousand, but if by more than two of you you mean similar cultivation, that would be a bit scary.

 I hope it’s just that there are more people taking supplements, rather than a lot of them being this strong. Otherwise, when such a force comes, the Star Territory of Eternal Dead Water will seem to change... It doesn't have to be so strong. In fact, just this couple is enough to cause big ripples in the Star Territory of Eternal Dead Water.

 Speaking of which, Luo Chuan is such a powerful force. Why is he fighting with you? He actually has the ability to hunt you down?

Thinking of this, Emperor Kumu asked tentatively: "Not long ago, it seemed that Fellow Daoist Zhao had not reached the other side yet? I wonder how he could heal his injuries in such a short period of time and still break through... Oh, if it involves privacy, I'm sorry for asking."

Zhao Changhe would not expose himself as a rookie who had just made a breakthrough. Even the battle related to the other side was just fought for the first time. He answered very naturally: "Of course it is the other side, but it was tricked by Luo Chuan. The emperor saw me He was seriously injured at that time, and it looked like he had just fallen into disrepair.”

Dijun Kumu nodded, noncommittal.

Zhao Changhe added: "In fact, we are sure of killing this beast ourselves. We came to Dijun this time mainly because we are not familiar with this place. We hope that a local snake like Dijun can help design it to see if there is a chance to eliminate it permanently. This problem."

Emperor Kumu's eyelids twitched: "It seems that fellow Taoist is indeed not from this star field. I wonder where he comes from?"

Zhao Changhe said: "Have you ever heard of the Emperor of Namek?"

 Ye Wuming: “…”

"Emperor, there is no need to test." Zhao Changhe said: "The universe is boundless, the dimensions are endless, and the distance is unknown. We just came here accidentally, and there will be no intersection between the two sides. The intersection between you and me is limited to Luochuan. Now it seems that Luochuan, as a On the other side, does he also have a galaxy power like the Emperor?"

"It's definitely not on the surface." Emperor Kumu said: "This star domain is called the Sea of ​​All Things. There used to be many forces. Demonic monks such as Luo Chuan were also powerful forces that divided the galaxy. Thousands of years ago, it was said that Luo Chuan got a The Supreme Treasure is trying to conquer Refining and use it as a basis to unify the Star Territory. At that time, people were panicking. "

Zhao Changhe lowered his head and sipped wine at Ye Jiuyou.

 We understand this matter, and the little broken book may be the most valuable thing at the time.

Emperor Kumu continued: "As a result, Luochuan didn't know whether there was something wrong with refining the magic weapon, and he was backlashed and injured. I took the opportunity to cooperate with several other Taoist friends on the other side to expel the demonic way and divide the sea of ​​stars. This battle is called the Battle of the Three Emperors The battle will eventually establish the three-power structure of Vientiane Xinghai, and I am one of them.”

He smiled a little at this point: "This is known as one of the three forbidden areas... To be honest, there is a phantom formation outside the star. Most people can't even see it, and it's difficult to get close. Of course, this may not be a problem for Fellow Daoist Zhao, but he escaped at that time There are so many places to go, but just escaping here is a fate. If you escape from another planet, there may not be anyone qualified to help you resist Luo Chuan."

 Zhao Changhe also laughed: "My luck has always been very good."

 The one with the best luck in this matter is probably Emperor Qian Kumu. When things went wrong in Luochuan, it must have been the destruction of the previous era in the Book of Heaven world. It was Ye Wuming's chess game and the battle between Lie and others. All the heroes in the world stood up and pointed angrily at the way of heaven. Regarding the most important disaster in the world of heaven and earth, it was you star domain monks who spent a long time picking peaches. But maybe it's a win-win situation... Luochuan was silent for an entire era after that battle, until Zhao Changhe rose up... The gap in the middle may be that he was surrounded and suppressed by Emperor Kumu and others, and he couldn't free up his hands.

Sure enough, Emperor Kumu continued: "Although the demonic forces were dead at that time, it was difficult for us to kill them all. There were still quite a few demons wandering around. Just for this tail, we couldn't rest in peace. That battle It can be said that all the strong men in Xinghai died in this battle, and some of our Taoist friends died in this battle. There are still countless people in Xinghai who are looking for the cave he left behind. "

 Ye Wuming: “…”

 We may also understand this matter, and we may have been to that cave. And when he was intercepted when he returned, he was probably a wandering demonic person like Luochuan... Since there are still such people, maybe Luochuan can really unite a group of forces, and there may be some secretly there now. .

Emperor Kumu said: "After so many years, the structure is generally stable. These remnants of the demonic path do not dare to do anything in a big way, for fear of falling into our encirclement, let alone gather forces openly. And we do not dare to force them. Too much. Once a top demon king like Luo Chuan is angered, no one can say what will happen... So we all live in harmony last time. To be honest, I was very surprised when he entered this place without permission to pursue Fellow Daoist Zhao. It can be seen that he cares about Fellow Daoist Zhao. How eager he is to kill."

Zhao Changhe sipped his wine and pondered.

From this point of view, Luo Chuan’s eagerness and unwillingness to conquer the Book of Heaven is more understandable.

Emperor Kumu said it euphemistically, but it actually showed his fear of Luochuan. Even the three most powerful forces did not dare to "provoke the top demon emperor". The fear behind his words was very obvious. It shows that this BOSS is still a real BOSS, even in the entire star field, he is still a BOSS.

It can be seen that the three forbidden areas alone may not be the opponent of Luochuan in his peak state. At first, they took advantage of Luochuan's backlash from the Book of Heaven to sweep away the demonic atmosphere. Now that the family's power is at its peak, he, a lonely and bereaved dog in Luochuan, does not dare to cause any trouble rashly, and maintains a delicate balance of keeping each other at peace. But if he regains control of the Book of Heaven, the increase in combat power he brings may become the key to breaking the balance. By then, it will not be impossible to counterattack the three forbidden areas, or even unify the star field and the demon flames will return.

 This is the key to breaking the balance. It has been the core point of all storms from ancient times to the present.

 From another level, the strength of each of the three forbidden areas is now about the same, and the star field has been balanced for tens of millions of years. But if Emperor Kumu had Zhao Changhe join him, he might also have the capital to unify the star field... No wonder Lao Deng is so enthusiastic.

 After coming to these judgments, Zhao Changhe let out a long sigh.

 What I was most afraid of at first was that the so-called cultivation on the other side was not worth mentioning in the whole world, and I was only a mid-level player. Now it seems that although the realm of the other side is not the only one that can crush all living beings, there are still many strong ones at the same level, but it is also at the top of the pyramid. Maybe there really are higher-dimensional existences, but it seems that they are not considered in this battle.

Speaking of the realm of the other side that Ye Wuming personally named, the outside world actually called it this... Not only does the smelly blind man have an attractive body, but his spiritual knowledge is indeed first-rate, and there is no shame.

"So..." Zhao Changhe pondered for a long time and finally said: "If we want to cooperate with the emperor to deal with Luochuan, what does the emperor think?"

Emperor Kumu said: "First of all, it is very difficult to find him. The sea of ​​stars is vast and the universe is boundless. How easy is it to find someone?"

“If we can solve this, what else should we pay attention to?”

"The other demonic monks who were not mentioned at that time." Emperor Kumu said: "They all act alone on the surface, and they may be afraid of being stabbed in the back, but once it involves the overall situation of life and death, there must be support, and in the end they will die... Maybe they may have been secretly involved. It’s organized. So Luo Chuan seems to be one person, but he cannot be regarded as one person.”

Zhao Changhe nodded: "What else?"

"The other two forbidden areas." Emperor Kumu smiled: "If you and I cooperate to destroy Luochuan and even other demonic monks, and the power of our Tianxuan galaxy expands, won't the other two be afraid? Or who is not afraid of being killed when the war situation becomes stalemate? People pick peaches? The reason why everyone has been unable to eliminate the remnants of the demonic path is that fear of others being behind has always been a key factor."

Ye Jiuyou said calmly: "Is it feasible if Luochuan leaves us to deal with the emperor and only deal with these chores?"

Emperor Kumu shook his head slightly: "The matter is of great importance and requires more carefulness, so we cannot give a direct answer. In addition..."

"how?"

"Whether it succeeds or not, we may have to be prepared to fall out with other forces." Emperor Kumu looked at Zhao Changhe meaningfully: "Luochuan and us will balance each other for a long time after all, and there will not be too intuitive conflicts. . Do I need to make such a desperate decision just to avoid future troubles?”

Zhao Changhe sneered slightly: "If Luochuan wants to unify the star field, who does the emperor think he will find first?"

Emperor Kumu sipped his wine lightly: "It doesn't make any difference which one you look for. Besides, Luo Chuan can't do it."

Zhao Changhe sneered: "Then let me say it bluntly, if we are taken care of by him, he will definitely be able to do it."

Dijun Kumu stared at Zhao Changhe without saying anything.

Zhao Changhe said again: "On that day, others will surrender at worst, and you will be the master of one party... I am afraid that even if the emperor wants to protect the cave, he will not be able to survive alone."

Emperor Kumu said calmly: "The incident happened because of fellow Taoist, but fellow Taoist said this with such a straight face."

“Things have happened, and it is not an emperor’s thinking to still be entangled in the cause. Seizing this opportunity that is different from the other two forbidden areas, and how to maximize the results, is what the emperor should consider.”

Emperor Kumu looked at Zhao Changhe for a long time, and suddenly said: "My fellow Taoist has the aura of mountains and rivers in his body, which is extremely rich. Has he ever been an emperor?"

Zhao Changhe said: "No, I'm just a mian-shou...a mian-shou shared by the masters of the three realms."

Dijun Kumu glanced at Ye Jiuyou, who had no expression on his face.

If there is an underworld in the world of the Book of Heaven, Ye Jiuyou is the Lord of the Underworld, and the human world is Xia Chichi. They are indeed both faces.

Where is the one in heaven? Have you made a reservation?

Emperor Kumu knew very well, where did the leader of the three realms come from... If someone could be the common man among the masters of the three realms, then he would not be the leader of the three realms, but the Lord of the World.

"So..." Emperor Kumu said one word at a time: "How can fellow Taoist guarantee that I will not suffer backlash during our cooperation?"

"I just said that there will be no intersection between the two parties in the future, but I don't know how to give a guarantee, and I don't bother to prove it myself. The emperor can only make his own judgment... Please note that my cooperation partner may not have only one choice." Zhao Changhe drank the glass. After drinking, he paused heavily on the table: "If you advance, you will have the opportunity to unify the star field, if you retreat, you will give this opportunity to others to gamble. I think as long as you are an emperor, you want to be the banker yourself, rather than handing the dice to others. inside."

Dijun Kumu looked at the remaining wine on the table, his eyes rippling faintly.

It took a long time to get up slowly: "The Zuoshou Guest Peak has not received guests for nearly a million years. The environment is quiet and the spiritual energy is rich. The worthy couple may wish to rest for one night and travel with you tomorrow."
