Chapter 1 A drop of Tianhuang blood in exchange for three hundred years of family prosperity
"Xiao Nuo, as a descendant of the Xiao family, it's time for you to contribute to the family."
"The young master of the Tiangang Sword Sect needs the drop of Heavenly Phoenix blood in your body to become the Holy Body of the War Phoenix. As long as you are willing to hand over the Heavenly Phoenix blood, the Tiangang Sword Sect can protect our family for three hundred years."
"Don't resist needlessly. For the sake of the family, what does your small sacrifice mean? Hehehehe."
"Sacrifice you, Xiao Nuo, to help the entire family. This is a good thing that you can't even ask for, hahahaha."
"Come here, take the blood."
"hiss!"
"..."
"No!"
The cold blade immediately penetrated into the back bone, and the severe pain that penetrated the soul directly woke Xiao Nuo from his sleep.
"call!"
Xiao Nuo was sweating profusely and breathing heavily.
"It's this dream again..."
Xiao Nuo clenched his hands into fists, his nails digging into the flesh of his palms. His eyes were filled with flaming hatred and anger.
It has been three years, and that night three years ago seems to have become a nightmare that Xiao Nuo will never get rid of.
Xiao Nuo was born into the Xiao family in "Lizard Moon City".
On the day he was born, he was born with a strange phenomenon, and the aura of red gold lingered outside his body. After examination, it was found that there was a drop of "Holy Blood of the Heavenly Phoenix" in his body.
With the power of essence and blood, he stands out among his peers and has a brilliant demeanor. He was once the number one genius in Lizard Moon City.
But just three years ago...
The Tiangang Sword Sect made a deal with the Xiao family. The Sword Sect wanted to transfer the "Tianhuang Blood" to their young sect leader to help him cultivate the Thousand-Year War Phoenix Holy Body.
For this reason, Tiangang Sword Sect offered very generous conditions to the Xiao family, and even made a promise: As long as the blood of Tianhuang is handed over, Tiangang Sword Sect is willing to protect the Xiao family for three hundred years!
The Tiangang Sword Sect is one of the seven holy places of cultivation in the Eastern Wasteland. In the hearts of the world, it is definitely a giant.
As long as they get the protection of Tiangang Sword Sect, the Xiao family is expected to rise.
It was precisely because of that promise that the head of the Xiao family had the drop of "Celestial Phoenix Blood" taken away from Xiao Nuo's body.
The Tiangang Sword Sect obtained the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix and kept its promise. Not only did it provide the Xiao family with great benefits, it even recruited the younger generation of the Xiao family into the sect to practice.
In recent years, the Xiao family has developed rapidly and has become one of the top three families in Lizhiyue City.
However, Xiao Nuo, who had the blood of Tianhuang taken away from him, suffered severe physical damage and fell from a tall building into an abyss overnight.
All the compliments in my ears turned into nothing, and all the support I once had turned into cold looks.
Grief and anger! Reluctance! Pain! Despair!
Pushing Xiao Nuo step by step into the abyss of eternal destruction!
Xiao Nuo tried to go to the Tiangang Sword Sect to ask for an explanation, but in the end he was either turned away, or forcibly kicked away, and sometimes even beaten with sticks.
Not long ago, in order not to offend the Tiangang Sword Sect, the senior officials of the Xiao family directly expelled Xiao Nuo from the Xiao family and crossed out his name from the family tree.
In other words, the current Xiao Nuo actually doesn't even deserve this name.
"You stepped on my corpse and treated me like a stupid dog. Xiao family, Tiangang Sword Sect... I will definitely get back these blood debts, I will definitely..."
Xiao Nuo's knuckles crackled as he clenched his fingers, and his eyes were as sharp as sharp thorns.
"call!"
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Nuo stood up. At this moment, he was in a dangerous mountain range.
This mountain range is called: Black Worm Mountain Range.
The purpose of Xiao Nuo's coming here was to find some medicinal materials to heal his body. He had just rested under a tree for a while, but fell asleep because he was too tired.
When Tianhuang's blood was taken away three years ago, Xiao Nuo also suffered from the root cause of the illness, resulting in no progress in his practice.
Xiao Nuo did not receive any of the benefits that the Tiangang Sword Sect gave to the Xiao family, so Xiao Nuo could only look for medicinal materials resources on his own.
"This is close to the center of the Black Worm Mountains..."
Xiao Nuo muttered to himself and carried the basket of medicine next to him.
There are many dangers in the Black Worm Mountain Range. The mountains in the distance are like ancient black dragons, and the dense forest is like a black ocean. Xiao Nuo would never dare to enter the central area.
The path of cultivation can be divided into: body training, foundation building, Qi control, channeling, becoming a prince, becoming king, grandmaster, becoming emperor...
Each realm is divided into levels one to nine, with level one being the lowest and level nine being the highest.
Xiao Nuo is currently only at the fourth level of the Body Refining Realm and can only deal with some low-level monsters. Fortunately, this is not the first time he has come to the Black Worm Mountains. The routes are very familiar and he can avoid many dangers.
"It's just that today, the Black Worm Mountain Range seems to be much quieter than before..."
Every time I came here before, the depths of the Black Worm Mountains were very lively, with the roars of all kinds of ferocious beasts coming and going, but today, it was surprisingly quiet.
Xiao Nuo continued to move forward, thinking about leaving before dark.
However, not long after, Xiao Nuo found that he was lost.
"I don't think I've been here before..."
Xiao Nuo frowned and looked around with a little doubt.
At this moment, he entered a dark forest. The structure of the forest was like a huge bird's nest.
Xiao Nuo felt like an ant falling inside, unable to tell the difference between east, west and north.
Every time he came to the Black Worm Mountains before, Xiao Nuo would leave marks and road signs, but now he couldn't find any marks.
"It's really strange. I shouldn't have gone very far..."
Xiao Nuo muttered to himself. He subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the sky. At this moment, over the Black Worm Mountains, dark clouds shrouded the sky and stars gathered together, like a terrifying demonic dragon entrenched.
"Is the sky going to change? I have to find a way back quickly..."
Xiao Nuo quickened his pace.
After a moment, an ancient altar suddenly appeared in front of him.
"This is?"
Xiao Nuo was a little frightened.
It was an altar that had been abandoned for an unknown period of time. Its general structure was a ring, with circles surrounding circles, giving people a sense of interlocking mystery.
On the altar stood tall stone pillars and an ancient statue of a god.
Its upper body is dozens of meters high, and its lower body seems to be integrated with the altar.
There is a huge ring suspended behind it, with one hand holding it up and the other reaching forward, like an ancient god.
This altar has been eroded by wind and rain for an unknown number of years, and its surface is full of pits and pits, but the statue of the god is solemn and complete.
"It's the altar rumored by the outside world..." Xiao Nuo murmured, with a look of shock on his face.
Xiao Nuo had heard about the altar in the Black Worm Mountain Range.
A long time ago, someone spread the news that there is a mysterious altar in the Black Worm Mountains, and occasionally people would come here.
There are also rumors that someone has obtained a powerful treasure from the altar.
Some people have also said that they have witnessed miracles above the altar.
There are also rumors that all the valuable items on the altar have been looted, and what is left now is an empty shell.
Of course, the rumors are mixed in truth and falsehood, but seeing the altar is a probabilistic thing.
Xiao Nuo slowly walked up to the altar and came to the statue of the god.
"If there are really gods here, please don't blame me. I just broke in unintentionally and did not mean to disturb..."
With that said, Xiao Nuo clasped his hands together and saluted.
Although I don’t believe in God, I am willing to respect and fear him.
at this time……
"hiss!"
A sharp blast of wind struck, and Xiao Nuo suddenly felt severe pain coursing through his body. His eyes widened, and when he looked down, he saw a cold arrow piercing his chest...
As a stream of blood spattered out, a strange and proud laughter came from behind Xiao Nuo.
"Hahahaha, are you worshiping God? Even if you worship God, it won't save your life..."
Hearing the sound, Xiao Nuo turned around suddenly.
Three extremely proud young figures came into view.
"It's you..." Xiao Nuo recognized them at a glance. They were the heirs of the Xiao family, and the leader was named Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi tilted his head and smiled extremely contemptuously: "Senior Brother Xiao Yong ordered the three of us to come and take your life..."
Xiao Yong?
Hearing this name, Xiao Nuo's eyes became extremely sharp.
Xiao Yongnai is the youngest son of the head of the Xiao family. He is almost the same age as Xiao Nuo. Before Xiao Nuo's Tianhuang blood was taken away, Xiao Yong felt jealous of Xiao Nuo. Later, when the Tianhuang blood was taken away, Xiao Yong began to hate Xiao Nuo.
Adding insult to injury.
"I have become like this, will he continue to target me?" Xiao Nuo said angrily while covering the bleeding arrow wound with one hand.
"Hehe..." The young man standing next to Xiao Yi, holding a bow and arrow, said with a sly smile: "You are a lost dog and a low-level useless person. To be honest, there is no need for us to care. However, in three days, Senior Brother Xiao Yong will officially
I have become a disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect, just in time to get rid of you and get closer to the young sect leader..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Nuo was furious.
The Tiangang Sword Sect and the Xiao family have already taken the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix from me, and now they want to take my life?
Xiao Yi also followed the joke and said: "In the past few years, you have come to Tiangang Sword Sect every now and then to cause trouble. For the sake of face and reputation, the sect disdains to talk to you, an ant, but you still don't know how high the sky is. In order to prevent your stupid behavior from affecting
Regarding the relationship between the family and the Tiangang Sword Sect, you’d better...disappear!"
The moment the words fell, Xiao Yi rushed out and struck Xiao Nuo with a palm.
Xiao Nuo quickly raised his palms to greet him.
"Bang!"
The strength of his palms collided with each other, and his energy exploded. The injured Xiao Nuo retreated and lay on his back, spurting blood.
Xiao Yi is Xiao Yong's lackey. He naturally has a share of the resources given to the Xiao family by the Tiangang Sword Sect. His cultivation level is one level higher than Xiao Nuo, reaching the fifth level of the body refining realm.
Xiao Nuo suddenly suffered internal and external injuries, and a rain of blood splashed on the altar.
Angry, Xiao Nuo's eyes were filled with anger.
Xiao Yi laughed heartily: "Hey, it's so pitiful that a genius turns into a dog!"
Two other people also stepped onto the altar.
"Stop talking nonsense to him, kill him, and go back to report."
"I think so too."
"..."
Looking at the vicious and merciless three people, Xiao Nuo trembled all over, hatred and grief intertwined in his heart.
"Am I, Xiao Nuo, going to die here today? I hate it, I'm not willing to accept it, I haven't recovered everything I lost, I haven't asked for justice yet, I'm not willing to accept it, I hate it so much..."
Xiao Nuo's eyes turned crimson and he roared at the sky.
In his heart, he was extremely sad.
Just when the three of them were about to kill the killer, there was a sudden thunder and wind in the sky...
"Clang!"
Xiao Yi and the others were startled when they saw the ancient statue behind Xiao Nuo, and suddenly his eyes glowed with light.
Xiao Nuo's blood splashed on the altar was actually transformed into hundreds of mysterious runes.
The rune secret was shaped like an activated halo array, immediately surrounding Xiao Nuo.
"rumble!"
The space trembled and the earth shook. Suddenly, the ancient statue seemed to come to life. Two light beams shot out of its eyes. The light beams overlapped and covered Xiao Nuo...
The next second, Xiao Nuo disappeared directly from the altar.
"Boom!"
The thunder continued, and Xiao Nuo fell into endless darkness.
Afterwards, a world of undivided chaos, like the Milky Way of the Universe, appeared in front of his eyes. In the center surrounded by billions of stars, a majestic ancient tower with golden light came into Xiao Nuo's eyes...
"Destined one, welcome to... Hongmeng Golden Pagoda!"
