This was supposed to be a hot day, one of the hottest days of the year.
The dog days of summer have just begun, the cicadas on the trees are chirping loudly, and the air is so sultry that it feels like it can steam people to death.
There was no breeze, and the trees on the roadside all stood quietly, not even the leaves swaying, just like the solemn atmosphere of the world on this day.
The time was almost noon.
The sun is high in the sky, the sun is blazing.
"Red rain falls from the sky, and the demon shines into the world..."
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty stood on the top of the Temple of Heaven, looking at the black cloud in the sky that was almost imperceptible to the naked eye, with a gloomy face.
He was already in his twilight years. After King Ning's Rebellion, although he did not die of serious injuries like in the original history due to the appearance of Feng Ziyue, his ambition at that time had long since disappeared.
If it weren't for what Feng Ziyue said about the arrival of the Shenshui Catastrophe, he would not have wanted to stay on the throne anymore. He would have followed his uncle Zhu Changzhi to practice martial arts diligently and become a man behind the scenes.
"Father!"
The original young prince, now the crown prince Zhu Yunzhao, went to the Temple of Heaven and respectfully called the current emperor.
Since he was the heir to the throne, he passed from Prince Fu to the current emperor and became the powerful second prince.
Everyone in the world knew that behind him stood the sword god Feng Ziyue in white, but no one dared to mess with him.
Even the current emperor has gradually transferred most of the state affairs to his hands.
Now seeing him coming up, the emperor nodded, lowered his head, and narrowed his eyes, showing his old look.
"What time is it now?"
"It's almost a quarter to noon."
Zhu Yunzhao respectfully replied that he was also a well-rounded person, and after years of experience, he had become even more mature. Although he knew that he had Feng Ziyue's support, it was not that simple to secure his position as emperor.
Others give you a hand and push you to a high position that you could not otherwise reach, but if you want to sit firmly, you still have to rely on your own ability.
After all, Feng Ziyue couldn't always come to help him, so being able to help him decide on the position of crown prince was already the most benevolent thing.
When Feng Ziyue left at the beginning, he also gave diligent reminders. After that, he often sent messages to ask him to pay attention to the Shenshui Tribulation. It was arranged all over the country, and the people of Wanjian Villa contributed a lot.
What Feng Ziyue wants is a person he trusts. In this important position, he can supervise the progress of preparations for the Shenshui catastrophe. Zhu Yunzhao also understands this, so he works extra hard in the preparations for the Shenshui catastrophe.
, other state affairs deliberately stayed away from it and left them to the emperor to handle.
As a result, the emperor was very satisfied with him and praised him for knowing how to advance and retreat. One after another, he gradually transferred the authority in his hands to him.
There was a lot of discussion among the civil and military officials about him, the son of a vassal king, suddenly arrogating to the position of prince, but under Zhu Yunzhao's methods, they gradually calmed down.
It is now the sixth day of June, and the divine water catastrophe predicted by Feng Ziyue is about to begin.
Zhu Yunzhao was also quite nervous. He had been counting the time. When the emperor asked, he had just looked at the sundial.
"It's almost noon..."
The emperor sighed, his voice low, like a groan.
On the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, red rain fell from the sky, and the demon Huang came to the world.
It is now noon, and if this moment is coming, it should be at this moment.
Even ordinary people who don't understand martial arts can feel the tense and weird atmosphere in the air, as if something is about to happen.
And an innate master like the emperor can sense the approaching crisis even more.
If before this, he believed what he said only because of Feng Ziyue's own prestige, then at this moment, he no longer had any doubts about the occurrence of the Divine Water Tribulation.
The only thing we are waiting for now is the beginning.
"After the red rain fell from the sky, where was the first tide of beasts to appear?"
The emperor murmured to himself and looked at the sky.
A drop of red rainwater floated slowly and landed on the Temple of Heaven, leaving a blood-like mark on the white jade marble table.
It’s raining red!
The Divine Water Tribulation has finally begun!
"Then...I should be Wushen Shuiya now..."
Feng Ziyue's expression was as calm as before, his white clothes swayed slightly, and the ancient bronze sword was still hanging on his waist.
After a year of seclusion and hard training, he finally emerged calmly. It seemed that he had not changed much.
The pressure on his body and his whole temperament were completely different.
Feng Ziyue had no way to stop the tide of beasts in various places, but the people in Wanjian Villa could not just sit back and watch their compatriots suffer, so they divided themselves into groups and rushed to various places for help.
Shen Siniang has not returned from Luoyang. I heard that the Ten Thousand Bones Pit of the Nangong family was still in some trouble, so Hu Xiaodao brought many people to help.
Except for Qi Xiaodie who was guarding Wanjian Villa, the other people who had reached the innate level were in groups of two or three and went out to take action.
After all, Wanjian Villa is now impregnable. If they stay in the Villa, they will naturally be safe.
But these people are not the type who can live alone. This is their own choice, and Feng Ziyue has no right to stop it.
But he also believes that no matter what, this big family will definitely be able to reunite!
"Be careful when you go..."
Xiaodie held Feng Ziyue's hand with a firm expression.
"Wanjian Villa, I'm here, you don't have to worry!"
Feng Ziyue nodded and gently reached out to stroke her cheek.
Shenshuiya, Yaohuang has come to the world, Feng Ziyue has gathered all the masters who can break through the seventh level of innateness, and is preparing to give Yaohuang a desperate blow when he comes to the world and his strength has not been restored.
Perhaps, it can nip the Divine Water Catastrophe in its bud!
This battle is inevitable!
The red rain is getting heavier and heavier, but it is also getting thinner and thinner.
The original red water droplets were as viscous as blood, but later they became sparse. Although they were still frighteningly bright red, they were no different from ordinary rainwater.
"Fuck, this weather!"
In a valley, the disciple guarding the door rushed into the hut and threw the red bamboo hat on the ground.
"Is it raining heavily again?"
Inside the hut, there was another disciple lying there. He was lazily smoking his pipe and his eyes were sleepy.
"Yeah, I don't know what's going on! The Wind Sword God really made it right!"
"On the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, there will be red rain from the sky, a catastrophe of divine water, and a raging tide of beasts?"
The disciple lying on the bed had a sarcastic smile on his face, "I don't know how to make such ridiculous words come out!"
The disciples who entered were surprised, "Senior brother, this is what the Wind Sword God said, how can it be false?"
Feng Ziyue's reputation spread throughout the Tianwu Continent.
However, some people take it seriously, while others naturally dismiss it.
"laugh!"
The senior brother who was lying down snorted coldly, "What the Wind Sword God is, it's just a false name. Even if his swordsmanship is amazing, how much can he know about monsters?"
"In our Valley of Hundred Beasts, who else can compare to the research on this monster beast except that old ghost, Lord Ten Thousand Beasts?"
"The owner of the valley has already said that this is simply impossible. What's more, all the monsters in the valley have been controlled by us. There are still 10,000 beast slaves at our disposal. How can these monsters turn the world upside down?
?”
"What a joke!"
He took a puff of cigarette with an unconvinced expression on his face.
When Feng Ziyue became famous at a young age, people who met him were naturally in awe of him, but people who had never met him, especially the outstanding young people, naturally had all kinds of envy and jealousy.
This descendant of the Valley of Beasts had exactly this idea.
The Valley of Beasts also has extremely in-depth research on the domestication of monster beasts.
Feng Ziyue even sent people to deliver a special letter to warn him, but none of them believed it.
"That's true. I remember that a few years ago, Senior Brother Zheng said that he wanted to go back and teach him a lesson. At that time, Senior Brother Zheng was just a Martial Master, right? Although he was defeated by him and did not come back, at least the two of them should not be much different..."
The disciple who came in sat down beside the bed and shook his head.
"After a few years, no matter how powerful this kid is, he won't be able to improve to that level..."
When Feng Ziyue first sent the message, he actually remembered that the Valley of Hundred Beasts was the innate secret realm behind the Zheng family.
It was the Zheng family who had been fighting with the Feng family in Wuyang City, and was finally driven out of Wuyang City by Feng Ziyue, who killed three martial masters in a row.
Zheng Long studied martial arts in the Valley of Beasts since he was a child. Speaking of which, he has a close relationship with Feng Ziyue.
However, although Zheng Long's talent is not bad, it is not very good either. He is in his twenties and has just broken through to the realm of martial master. Although his talent is not hopeless, he is not a very extraordinary direct descendant.
He interrupted his studies and forced himself to go home, but he died under Feng Ziyue's sword, and the Valley of Beasts did not go to war over this.
This can be considered a wise move on their part.
It's a pity that they were smart about this matter, but made another mistake about the Divine Water Tribulation.
They were too superstitious about their understanding of monsters and ignored Feng Ziyue's sincere warning. This was the case for all the disciples from the Valley Master down.
In the past few decades, the research on monsters in the Valley of Beasts has also reached a new level.
They are different from the Venerable Ten Thousand Beasts who are dedicated to researching ways to coexist with monsters and beasts. They have found a different path, but they have walked a strange path.
Beast slave!
This is the biggest achievement of the Valley of Beasts in decades.
And even the reborn Feng Ziyue knew nothing about this matter.
Because, in the previous life, the Valley of Beasts with its beast slaves was the first innate secret realm to be destroyed.
The secret of the beast slaves is unknown.
In this life, Feng Ziyue had the opportunity to understand this matter.
When Zheng Long returned home, he took four beast slaves and sent them out to deal with Feng Ziyue to test the depth of his martial arts. Feng Ziyue defeated them with the sword technique of chasing the wind all the way, and also frightened the peepers on the side.
The young prince Zhu Yunzhao.
——These things are closely related.
When they started to do it, Golden Retriever Shenhuan realized something was wrong.
The guys on the opposite side were obviously humans, but they gave off the aura of monsters.
But in the end, there was no result and nothing came of it.
In fact, this is the method of transforming beast slaves in the Valley of Beasts!
Human power is weak, while the power of monster beasts is inherently strong, but humans can improve themselves by practicing martial arts, but monster beasts did not have this method before Yao Huang came to the world and passed down the martial arts of monster beasts.
Can rely on time to slowly grow, reincarnate and improve.
Therefore, many people are considering this issue, how to combine the advantages of monsters and humans.
This kind of somewhat evil research is being carried out in the Valley of Beasts.
Hybridization between humans and animals is naturally not an option. Unless the monsters and beasts complete the reincarnation of humans and completely transform into humans, the two will not be able to produce offspring at all.
And when the monster beast completely transforms into a human, the original monster characteristics will naturally disappear and become useless, and the children born will be completely human.
What's more, reincarnation in human form will take at least a thousand years. How can the people in the Valley of Beasts afford it?
What they did was to transplant the bones, flesh, and meridians of monsters into humans in the hope that humans could possess the power of monsters.
Speaking of which, they were successful.
Although the created beast slaves will be a little slow, they are indeed a combination of the characteristics of humans and monsters. They have strong bodies and vitality without practicing martial arts. After learning the corresponding martial arts, they can become even more powerful.
Stronger.
Although the brain is slow, the beast slave's strength cannot break through the innate ability for the time being.
But the owner of the Hundred Beasts Valley also believes that as long as they are given some more time, they will naturally be able to find ways to improve the beast slaves.
By then, if there are tens of thousands of beast slaves with innate cultivation, he will almost be able to sweep across the Tianwu Continent.
Sword God Feng Ziyue can't resist the joint attack of ten thousand innate masters, right?
Therefore, everyone in the Valley of Beasts is very confident in themselves. Those tamed beast slaves and monsters make them not believe in prophecies such as the Divine Water Catastrophe.
Although the Valley Master also ordered some precautions, everyone really didn't believe this.
It was only now that the red rain was falling that some disciples were hesitant to believe it.
But, it's too late!
The senior brother who was lying on the bed suddenly raised his head in confusion.
"Junior brother, did you hear anything?"
"what sound?"
The junior brother was stunned for a moment. His martial arts was inferior to his senior brother, and his six senses were naturally a little worse. But soon, he heard a deafening sound.
It's the sound of hooves.
It was like the sound of hooves coming from thousands of troops.
The expressions of the two junior brothers suddenly turned pale.
The senior brother jumped off the bed and slammed open the window.
Red rain falls one after another.
A bright red water curtain formed, blocking their sight, but when they looked towards the Valley of Beasts, they couldn't help but exclaimed!
Countless monsters came flying towards me in an endless stream.
Just like their unique martial arts skills, the raging tide of beasts.
No, the raging tide of beasts is definitely not on such a large scale, nor will it have such a raging momentum that swallows up the heaven and the earth!
"This...this is..."
The two brothers looked at each other and collapsed to the ground miserably.
After a few breaths, this furious beast tide will soon destroy the hut at the mouth of the valley.
And they can't even think of resisting or escaping!
