The loud bells, like thunder, echoed in the sky above the Beiming family, making people feel uneasy.
Emperor Beiming frowned and asked, "Where did the bells come from?"
The people below looked at each other in confusion, not knowing the source of the bell.
Immediately afterwards, the bell rang again.
"Dangdangdang——"
Eight more bells rang in succession, plus the first bell, for a total of nine.
Emperor Beiming's expression became solemn. He stood in the main hall, his bright red robe moving without any wind, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.
"Father, what happened?" Pluto asked.
In his memory, he rarely saw such a serious expression on his father's face, and he realized that something major might have happened.
Emperor Beiming did not answer, but turned to the clansmen in the hall and said loudly: "Everyone, go to the family square to gather immediately, no mistakes!"
Upon hearing this, the tribesmen took action one after another.
Although everyone was full of doubts and uneasiness, they still left the hall quickly and orderly. King Bei Ming was also about to follow the tribe to the square, but he was stopped by King Bei Ping.
"Son, you stay." Beiming Huang's voice carried unquestionable majesty.
Soon, only the father and son were left in the hall.
Bei Minghuang said to Bei Mingwang: "As the heir of the family, you need to know more."
Pluto looked at his father, waiting for his next words.
Emperor Beiming walked to a corner of the hall, where an ancient scroll hung. He gently touched the scroll, as if he was having a conversation with the past.
"The bell rings nine times, this is your Majesty's method." Beiming Emperor said in a deep voice.
North Pluto was shocked: "Your Majesty's method?"
"Yes." Beiming Huang said: "As far as I know, this bell has only rang three times, and every time it rang, something big happened."
"The first time it was sounded, it was so old that there is no way to verify it. It is said that a war broke out in the restricted area of life, and countless masters died, including several quasi-emperors."
North Pluto looked shocked.
Several powerful quasi-emperors died, which shows how fierce the battle was.
"The second ringing is the reshuffle of the Life Zone. You should know that back then, the Life Zone was not limited to our five major families, but included many families."
"Not only did they disobey Your Majesty's orders, they also fought for the treasure for a long time. Finally, they entered the core of the restricted area of life in an attempt to obtain the spiritual roots of heaven and earth. In anger, Your Majesty destroyed them all."
Bei Minghuang paused and said with a worried face: "This is the third time the bell has rang. I don't know what will happen, but it is definitely not a good thing."
King Bei Pluto clenched his fists and said: "Father, no matter what the crisis is, I will live or die with my family."
Emperor Beiming looked at him, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes, but was immediately replaced by worry.
"Son, sometimes, surviving is more important than heroic sacrifice." He said earnestly, "Remember, you are the hope of the Beiming family, and every decision you make may affect the future of the family."
"Besides, I'm still alive. If it comes to a life-or-death situation, it won't be your turn to die."
"Remember, cherish your life."
After saying that, Bei Ming Huang turned around and walked towards the exit of the hall, followed closely by Bei Ping Wang.
When they arrived at the family square, all the clan members had gathered here, and everyone's face was full of nervousness.
Emperor Beiming looked up and saw winds and dark clouds rolling in the sky, as if a violent storm was coming.
"Father, could it be that Ye Changsheng and the others entered the restricted area of life and angered Your Majesty?" Bei Pluto whispered.
Emperor Beiming pondered for a moment and said: "With the cultivation of these guys, I'm afraid they can't make your Majesty angry, but your Majesty is moody and it's hard to say."
"Father, have you seen Your Majesty?" King Bei Pluto asked curiously.
"I saw it when I was young, but I only saw a red shadow. I never saw your true face. The same is true for everyone else."
When Bei Minghuang said this, his tone became serious: "I hope there won't be any shocking changes when the bell rings this time..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden thunder explosion.
"Boom!"
Immediately afterwards, several lines of large blood-red characters appeared in the air.
"From today on, the core area of the Life Forbidden Zone is open, and all monks under the age of 100 can enter."
"Important reminder, although there are countless treasures in the core location, there are many dangers, so please be careful."
"Also, Ye Changsheng has obtained the Tree of Life!"
These lines of blood-red words have been floating in the air for a long time.
"This is your Majesty's decree." Beiming Emperor said.
Suddenly, the scene exploded.
"Is the core area open?"
"Very good."
"I have long heard that there are countless treasures inside, but I have been afraid to go in. Now that it is open, what are you waiting for?"
"..."
Bei Pluto clenched his fists tightly, with an excited look on his face, and secretly said in his heart: "Sister Hua, just wait, I will definitely unscrew Wu Hua's head to avenge you."
Emperor Beiming was also a little surprised. He frowned and muttered: "For so many years, Your Majesty has never opened the core area to the outside world. Why is it suddenly open today? How strange! How strange!"
"Head of the family, we are going to go treasure hunting, and we ask the head of the family for permission." A young tribesman said.
Emperor Beiming glanced at it and found that the young people in the clan looked enthusiastic and eager to try.
Bei Minghuang said: "The core area is very dangerous. After entering, you may lose your life inside. Are you sure you want to go in?"
At that moment, a group of young tribesmen responded in unison: "OK!"
Beiminghuang: "..."
North Pluto also said: "Father, I want to go in too."
Emperor Beiming reminded: "The core area is not generally dangerous. People who have entered before have never come out. Although your Majesty has opened it, but..."
"Father!" Bei Mingwang interrupted Bei Minghuang and said: "Your Majesty is not an ordinary person. Since she said she is open, she will not break her promise."
Bei Ming Huang looked at his son's firm eyes with mixed feelings in his heart. He knew that Bei Ping Wang had his own ambitions and determination and could not be stopped.
So, he sighed and said: "That's all, you go, but you must be careful and come back alive."
King Bei Pluto nodded heavily, his eyes shining with perseverance: "Don't worry, father, I will return safely."
Then, Emperor Beiming looked at the young tribesmen and said: "Since everyone has decided to go in, I will no longer stop you. However, I want to remind you that the core area is full of dangers. Once you enter, life or death will be unpredictable. Therefore, you all
We must make complete preparations, travel together as much as possible, and look after each other.”
"In addition, the young master will also go in."
"You follow the young master and obey the young master's instructions in all matters. You are not allowed to act without authorization."
"Yes!" The tribesmen agreed one after another.
Bei Mingwang was about to leave. He looked at Bei Minghuang and said, "Father, I'm leaving."
Beiming Huang nodded, and for some reason, he felt suddenly uneasy and said, "Son, let me give you a ride!"
After saying this, Bei Ming Huang took out a flying magic weapon, carried Bei Ping Wang and his clan members, transformed into a stream of light, and sped towards the core of the restricted area of life.
