Volume 5: The Ancient Glorious Empire Chapter 129: The flame of hidden dragons and crouching tigers!
“It’s a sign of time.”
The Moon Lord discovered that in the City of Burning Fire, some mythical beings had faint traces of time on their bodies.
The Xinhuo Organization is likely to possess a valuable treasure related to time.
Is this the reason why Xinhuo can cultivate one legend after another in a short period of time?
She wondered, but didn't have much curiosity to pry.
It's just a myth, just . No matter how many myths are cultivated by the flame, they will not cause any ripples in her eyes.
However, the Moon Lord was somewhat curious about this precious time-related treasure, but only “somewhat”.
The time treasure is very precious, but she also has it.
She is one of the oldest gods in the Ghost Realm. Over countless years, she has accumulated countless treasures. If the richest people in the Ghost Realm are listed, she will definitely be among the top.
It was precisely because she was wealthy and owned more than one precious time-related treasure that she was able to climb to the highest heights in the world of time.
In the eyes of other ancients, she was just a deity who controlled the moonlight and specialized in the law of light. Little did they know that her attainments in the ways of time and space were also quite impressive, even surpassing some ancients who used the titles of time and space.
She is the Moon Lord, one of the strongest in the strange world.
Even though she was seriously injured, she still possessed infinite power.
She observed the entire Burning City in detail. This was out of curiosity, wanting to learn more about the Flame Mentor from the side, and also to get a deeper understanding of humans. Only by understanding humans could she find a more direct way to convince Yi Yue Luxi.
She did not spy on the few important areas covered by top-level secret rituals. Under the influence of the omnipresent "light", the Moon Lord only turned his eyes and swept the entire Burning City.
It is a careful sweep.
She discovered some myths that were stained with traces of time;
She also discovered several descendants of gods living in the Burning Oasis. One of them was related to her by blood and was her descendant. Back then, she had used the Tree of Life and her own great power to breed several fruits of life that contained the power of her bloodline.
Several daughters of the Moon Goddess were born, and they were in the mythical realm as soon as they were born.
One of her most outstanding children even opened the door to a high position and became a very rare high-ranking person among the descendants of gods. However, later on, this Princess Bright Moon died at the hands of the servants of the evil god.
The other daughters of the Moon Lord either died or died of old age.
To this day, there are indeed still a few descendants of gods with her Moon Lord's blood flowing in their bodies, but it is very thin and she hardly recognizes them.
The Moon Lord still looked at him a few more times and kept this not-so-good descendant in mind.
"Myths, descendants of gods, various races... The Burning City is indeed very prosperous. If there were no wars or disasters, it would probably become the number one city in the Ghost Realm, a place that countless creatures yearn for."
"What a pity. Although prosperous, it is also fragile and can become a passing cloud at any time."
While she was observing, she vaguely noticed a gaze.
That was the gaze of a high-ranking realm, looking down at the Burning City from afar and carefully. However, she, the Moon Lord, was looking down from a higher position, and was the ruler of the "light" realm, so she was able to spot that gaze.
The city on fire is already in turmoil.
Of course, she didn't care.
The disaster in the Burning City might help Yi Yue Luxi to face the reality more quickly.
The Moon Lord thought and uttered another exclamation.
Her eyes fell on the ordinary duo who walked in from outside the gate of the Burning City.
To say it is mediocre is not accurate.
One of the two men was three meters tall, with grayish-green skin, and looked like a mermaid. The other was short and fat, spherical, with a black cloth wrapped tightly around his body, and was suspended in the air one meter above the ground, floating forward.
Neither of them was obviously human.
The appearance is somewhat eye-catching, but only slightly.
When they came, many passers-by glanced at them for a few seconds before looking away. Aren't they just two foreign visitors? Nowadays, there are many strange races in the Burning City, and they are not surprised!
The City of Fire is such a magical place!
The power displayed by the two was merely at the Mythical Realm - a level that had the ability to freely travel through various realms and was not conspicuous in the Burning City.
But the Moon Lord vaguely sensed something was wrong with these two people.
She frowned slightly and cast a more serious look, "Sure enough, something is wrong. It turned out to be them, the ancients of Paradise."
Paradise is a group of ancients that brings together many powerful ancients and aims to create a secluded paradise!
It has not been popular for long, but it has become very famous!
Because "Paradise" has recruited many ancient people who are already famous!
She, the Moon Lord, had also received an invitation from Paradise, but she had rejected it outright. The ancients recruited by Paradise were from all walks of life, and she didn't want to work with some of them, even if it was just for cooperation.
After a brief recollection, the Moon Lord recognized the two ancient beings who had stepped into the Burning Oasis.
——The God of Mermaids: Ghost-faced Mermaid!
——A special life born from the endless abyss: the Lord of Black Smoke!
The Moon Lord was able to identify them at a glance, not because she completely saw through them, but...these two ancient beings, the Ghost-faced Mermaid Lord and the Lord of Black Smoke, did not hide their identities at all.
They walked into the Burning City with their most authentic appearance.
He looked fearless.
But she does have the qualification. Although the Ghost-faced Mermaid Lord and the other two are far inferior to her, the Moon Lord, they are also powerful beings among the ancients and have countless amazing battle records.
The Lord of Black Smoke is a natural being in the tenth realm.
As the god of mermaids, Ghost-faced Mermaid was originally just a third-rate minor deity in the ninth realm. But after the advent of the mysterious era, this ancient being apparently made a huge breakthrough and may have already entered the tenth realm, the root realm.
The Moon Lord had heard a little about the battle achievements of this Ghost-faced Mermaid Lord.
"The Paradise group seems to often arrange top ancients to team up in pairs."
"Ghost Face Mermaid Lord can travel with the Lord of Black Smoke, which obviously means they are at the same level."
"and……"
A big thing happened not long ago.
Two ancient beings from Paradise broke into the ninth-level oasis of the Shadow Clan and took away the clan's treasure.
The Shadow Clan is a relatively powerful clan in the strange world, below humans and the four elementals .
This clan has two high-level masters.
They are extremely rare in number, have no vassal races, and are only active in a corner of the strange world, so they are not well-known.
but……
"The masters of the Shadow Clan have gathered in their only oasis. If you really count them, the Shadow Clan's nest's ability to resist external enemies is much stronger than that of humans."
Not to mention that the Burning City is a city where outsiders can enter and exit freely.
It would be a hundred times easier to break through.
Of course, in the Moon Lord's opinion, even if the Burning Fire City is not open, it cannot stop the two ancient tenth-level masters, Ghost-faced Mermaid Lord and Lord of Black Smoke.
It seems to make no difference.
The Moon Lord is not planning to do anything.
She is her, and the fire is the fire, there is no relationship between the two. She just silently watched and waited for the development of the situation.
Will that mentor show up?
"With the power of that Xinhuo mentor, maybe he can fight against these two guys alone."
"but……"
If a battle between the tenth realms breaks out, the entire Burning City will be wiped out in an instant. After all, the Ghost Face Mermaid Lord and the other two have already stepped into the oasis.
This is the fatal weakness of the Burning City. It is too easy to be sneaked in!
The more likely possibility is that before the torch mentor could react, the Ghost-faced Mermaid and the Lord of Black Smoke looted the treasures in the city and fled away.
This possibility is more likely.
Because the torch mentor is most likely not in the city.
The Ghost-faced Mermaid and the Lord of Black Smoke also came prepared.
…
"Capture the high-ranking people in the Burning City and search their souls, and we will know everything."
The ghost-faced mermaid grinned.
That's their plan.
In the face of absolute power, they don't need fancy plans; simple and direct plans are enough.
The two ancients have cooperated and have seized many treasures.
These treasures will add to their great paradise plan.
"Um?"
The Ghost-faced Mermaid suddenly stopped and fixed his eyes on a slender, weak human figure at the end of the street.
"This powerful person from the Xinhuo Organization actually showed up on his own."
"She found us, which is kind of interesting."
The Ghost-faced Mermaid licked his lips.
The human woman in the distance, with black hair draped over her shoulders, had eyes as calm as the abyss, flowing with a faint blue light, and she was quietly watching the two of them.
There was no one on the street anymore.
In the distance, powerful men in the mythical realm stood on the roof of a building, ready for battle.
However, Ghost Face Shark Lord and Black Smoke Lord didn't care about these people. No matter how many ants there were, they were just ants. Under the divine body of the law, even if they stood there and allowed themselves to be attacked , these ants couldn't hurt them at all.
Only the black-haired human girl in the distance was worthy of their attention.
This is a person of high status, Ghost-faced Mermaid was very sure of it. He saw the ripples of laws rippling between heaven and earth.
"Who is this high-ranking person?"
"Isn't the one guarding the Burning City the Heaven-burning Flame Irohi, who is known as the second strongest person in the human race?"
"Never mind. It doesn't matter."
He originally wanted to weigh the strength of Iloxi, the Burning Sky Flame.
But it is just a high position. No matter how strong the position is, it is just a high position.
The Ghost Faced Mermaid said, "Tell me clearly what treasures you have and where they are. Otherwise, even without any fighting, the little bit of power I leak out will be enough to crush the surroundings."
"Or are you trying to stop me, little girl?"
He said.
There is no intention of using courtesy before force at all.
The power locked in the divine body was released inch by inch.
The Ghost-faced Shark Lord was still three meters tall, but at this moment he looked infinitely taller. The rhythm of the laws shone all over his body, filling the entire city with mist.
The sky near the Burning City revealed an even more terrifying scene.
The waves were surging, and countless mermaids were walking on the waves, as if they wanted to crush everything in their pass.
"The power of the wave!"
The Moon Lord said softly, with a hint of seriousness in his eyes.
An Jianyou was very serious.
What the Ghost-faced Mermaid said was right. We were already inside the city, and any larger battle would bring unpredictable damage to the entire oasis city.
Therefore, when Xing Jinglei, who was on duty and scanning the city around the clock, discovered the newcomer, the organization notified her immediately.
She arrived quickly.
She stood before two powerful Ancients.
She clenched her fists.
"After so many years of training, I can finally contribute my strength in the face of a powerful enemy."
Endless darkness spread, enveloping the entire street in an instant.
The Ghost-faced Mermaid was startled.
He looked at the pitch-black space in front of him, and the looming blue river and towering city gates in the distance, and couldn't help but become alert.
I was actually a little uneasy.
"Secret realm? World?"
"But even if it is a world, it is just a larger glass bead in front of the Origin Realm."
The Ghost-faced Mermaid held up the weapons of gods and demons and tore through space.
Boom——
The space is cracking.
The earth kept breaking apart.
But the darkness within the world became deeper and more terrifying.
In the dark fog, figures emerged one after another quietly. Each of these figures gave him a palpitating intuition.
"You are not a high-level realm! Are you a tenth-level root powerhouse?!"
"Could it be that you are the legendary strongest human being, the torch mentor?"
"No, that's not right. Humans actually have a second Origin Realm?"
At this time, the Lord of Black Smoke also noticed something was wrong.
From the beginning to the end, they seemed to have underestimated this Xinhuo organization.
"Work together."
He said. Otherwise, not to mention that if he continued to delay, it would attract more Xinhuo masters, and he was afraid that they would not even be able to defeat the one in front of him.
After the dark world opened up, the originally weak human girl seemed to reveal her true face.
Her appearance remained unchanged, but in the eyes of the Lord of Black Smoke, she became increasingly terrifying.
It seems that something ominous is spreading.
Ghost Face Mermaid Lord also became more and more uneasy. This time, he no longer thought it was just an illusion. Who knows, the human girl in front of him might be the real strongest human being hidden behind the fire!
It’s hidden so deeply!
He embodied authority.
33.45% of the wave power!
The Lord of Black Smoke also manifested his authority: 42.36% of the Black Smoke authority!
To manifest authority means to use all their strength. They are serious and may even risk their lives.
An Jianyou was also very serious and solemn. This was the strongest enemy she had faced since her debut. She manifested her own sovereign authority.
A complete hemisphere.
50% of the authority of the underworld!
The two Ghost-faced Mermaids looked shocked.
"Her authority is stronger than ours, but we are still on the same level."
"Well, let's go all out and tear open the world blockade first, and then make long-term plans!"
A terrible battle broke out in the underworld.
The laws are in disorder and the space is broken.
Outside, darkness enveloped the earth, gradually fading away without a ripple.
A powerful person in the mythical realm is maintaining order at the scene.
The Moon Lord's gaze also lingered over this area.
She frowned, "World-related abilities?" But she couldn't see the scene inside the darkness. She unexpectedly discovered that her eyes couldn't get in.
She pondered.
She hadn't thought much about it yet.
The darkness spread again, spitting out two mutilated corpses.
One is blue-gray, the other is gray-black.
Both corpses contained great power, and as soon as they appeared, they triggered the laws of heaven and earth. The laws shone, and the sound of heaven and earth hummed.
It’s the corpse of a great and powerful person!
Moon Lord: "(◎△◎)〃"
…
In the Holy Court, there were also two figures dressed in slightly strange clothes, stepping in from Luoxia Province and heading straight for the First Province.
They suddenly braked.
"Urgent message from the leader."
"Abandon the mission and evacuate the Holy Court Continent immediately."
On the hands of the two ancients, a ring flashed with a rapid glow.
They were confused.
"what happened?"
"Is the leader having a seizure?"
"Ahem, be careful with what you say... But could it be that something happened to the other group?"
"Shall we continue then?"
They were a little hesitant. After all, they were already here, the Idora Tree of Life was not far away, and the ancient treasure seemed to be within reach.
It was shameful for them, the great and powerful beings of the tenth realm, to leave like this.
How will I survive in the future?
But the leader’s message is so urgent, it doesn’t seem like a trivial matter?
While I was struggling, a man in a black windbreaker and a black mask came from a distance.
Appearing with this man were tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands of heroic souls.
They were surrounded.
They fell into a world that looked like a battlefield.
Heidao didn't say much, just gave military orders.
"One hundred thousand heroic souls, follow me and kill!"
The heroic spirits rushed forward in formation, shaking the sky and the earth, gradually submerging the two majestic figures.
In the darkness, a few ancient people who had been spying and hesitating whether to take action suddenly dispersed.
This fire is so full of hidden talents!
