First, ten people from the Ninth Level Heaven List disappeared, and now it was revealed that Wu Yi and Qin Xiaoke had died one after another...
Hearing Qin Ba's words, Gao Zhengjie, who was standing on top of the beast, suddenly said: "May I ask Brother Qin, when did Qin Xiaoke's spiritual tablet break?"
Qin Ba raised his eyebrows at first, but when he heard Qin Zun on the side whisper, "Wu Yi has also perished," he frowned and replied: "Seven minutes ago."
"A more accurate time?" Gao Zhengjie asked.
Qin Ba seemed to have had a premonition of something, and he continued: "From now on, it will be seven minutes and fourteen seconds."
Gao Zhengjie finally said what he wanted to say in a low voice.
The so-called spirit tablets are special tokens entrusted with fragments of spiritual power. They are usually kept in the hands of powerful relatives. As long as the spirit tablet is broken, it means that the spirit is completely destroyed.
But when they heard the questions and answers from the two princes, everyone was horrified.
The time of death of Qin Xiaoke and Wu Yi was only one minute apart?
What does this mean...
If it is not a coincidence, if the murderer is the same person, how strong must this person be to completely wipe out the lives of two people in one minute?
Killing a mountain and sea and defeating a mountain and sea are completely different concepts. After all, everyone has a few life-saving trump cards these days, not to mention that Qin Xiaoke and Wu Yi are both extraordinary, so it is not that easy to kill them!
The scene was silent for a moment.
Although neither Gao Zhengjie nor Qin Ba spoke, everyone knew that they were just waiting.
Just like Duke Tianning, who is still unsure whether his true body has arrived.
In the sight of the mountains and seas, the martial arts minister Wu Wei, who had always been calm and unfazed, was frowning at this time, obviously feeling a little troubled by the situation in front of him.
Although the Martial Arts Department is the head of the Nine Departments, and Wu Wei is nominally the number one person in China, facing these princes who are all unruly and emotional at this time, it is difficult for his words to have any effect.
And I know.
At this time, there was a gust of wind and clouds in the sky, and lotus flowers came in. When those colorful lotus flowers came to the eyes, they suddenly gathered into the void, and then condensed into one in everyone's stunned eyes.
A woman wearing a blue dress.
The woman's skin was like cream, and she looked like a fairy, but at this moment, her whole body was exuding an icy aura. The powerful mountain and sea man who was closer even raised his arms in shock, because the surface of her skin was already covered with a thin layer of ice.
.
Wherever emotions come, heaven and earth surrender.
When they discovered that this sudden appearance of a woman could easily affect the surrounding environment, even a strong man who didn't know this woman couldn't help but be shocked.
Another prince!
"Uncle Qian Huan, I wonder why you came here?"
Ma Gongzuo and Wu Wei looked at each other and saw the concentration in each other's eyes.
Others may not know, but they know clearly that Mu Ziyan, who is on the Nine Heavenly Rankings, is Qian Huanbo's proud disciple.
Thinking back to Gao Zhengjie and Qin Ba who arrived earlier, they already had a premonition of something.
Sure enough, Qian Huanbo's first words made everyone's expressions change.
"I came here to see who has such a great ability, so that my useless disciple Zi Yan will die without a burial place, without even retaining his spiritual core!"
Qian Huanbo's voice was extremely pleasant, and it was not as aggressive as Qin Ba and Gao Zhengjie, but the meaning behind it made everyone feel like they were carrying a ray of light, even though Qian Huanbo's spearhead was not directed at them.
Mu Ziyan!
When they heard another name appear from Qian Huanbo's mouth, the people present were actually a little numb under the successive shocks.
At this moment, a bad guess emerged in everyone's mind. The ten people who were missing could not be...
Even the powerful men in the prince's seat could not sit still and began to communicate with each other.
Because he was not the only one like Qin Zun who came to the scene to protect the way.
When Mu Ziyan learned that Gao Zhengjie and Qin Ba actually appeared here for the same reason, she leaned over directly.
The three princes, coupled with the lingering dark clouds high in the sky, directly made the atmosphere in the square tense to the extreme.
Fortunately, everyone breathed a sigh of relief that a long time had passed, but no fourth prince appeared, as if no one had finally been killed...
Wu Wei, who has never come forward and said a word since Gao Zhengjie appeared, seemed to have waited for an opportunity and finally stood up.
"Mr. Gao, Master Qin, and Qian Huan, please allow me to say a few words..."
However, just as Wu Wei opened his mouth, a cry of sadness and anger suddenly came from behind him.
"Yi'er!"
Wu Wei turned around in shock and saw Uncle Minnan, who had been sitting quietly in the prince's seat, suddenly stood up in disbelief.
He looked into the void, as if he sensed something. After feeling sad, he slowly took out a small box from his sleeve. When he opened the box, he found jade powder broken into pieces.
Spirit card!
Wu Wei's pupils shrank, and when he recalled Minnan Bo's cry of pain just now, he still didn't understand what happened?
Cao Yi... also died.
Everyone was alarmed. Like Wu Wei, they could instantly guess the cause and effect of the matter.
They were surprised that Mu Ziyan's fall was still not the end, and the prince's seat was in trouble again!
At this moment, countless people seemed to hear the roar of the sea.
Among the princes, Marquis Xuanming, who has always been known as the "King of the East China Sea", suddenly stood up and took out a small box with a gloomy face.
Open it, and inside it is also a spiritual tablet that has turned into powder.
Everyone just reacted briefly and then quickly thought of something.
That’s Sha Bi’s magic tablet!
According to everyone's prior investigation, although Sha Bi was not a direct disciple of Marquis Xuanming, the overseas system was special. It can be said that Sha Bi's ability to grow up overseas must have an inextricable cause and effect with Marquis Xuanming.
However, beforehand, Marquis Xuanming did not reveal that he was Sha Bi's protector today.
It was not until Sha Bi's death and Marquis Xuanming's gaffe that everyone suddenly woke up.
The fifth fallen genius also appeared...
As if to confirm the shadow in everyone's heart, a sword light that seemed to split the world suddenly extended from the horizon. When the sword light dissipated, an unruly man with disheveled hair and a long sword on his back appeared in mid-air.<
/p>
He didn't talk too much, and his eyes that seemed to hide all the sharp edges in the world looked directly at Wu Wei.
"Minister, I want an explanation."
What explanation?
Most people can't react for a while.
"Yidaohou, if you are here for Bai Fei, please be patient. We still don't know the facts."
Wu Wei understood immediately, he sighed and said.
Yidahou!
Bai Fei!
Many people were stunned, but then they felt relieved.
Since the revival of spiritual energy, princes, as the leaders of human warriors, rarely leave behind their own martial arts inheritance, but some of them are hidden deeper, such as the Yidao Hou in front of him. If Bai Fei hadn't seemed to have fallen, who would have known about the two of them?
Is there actually a relationship?
The sixth person...
The array where Su Kewu University was located was even more wailing, and the top mountain and sea Tian Liqing had already shed tears.
"Fang Fan is also dead."
At this moment, another person stood up on the prince's seat and said with a gloomy expression.
Tuo Donghou!
Another Marquis!
Many people have numb scalps. Among the eight princes who appeared at this moment, except Qian Huanbo, who is slightly weaker, the others are all super strong!
The scariest thing is that this doesn’t seem to be the end yet.
When Wu Dinghou also flashed, he came to Wu Wei and started to communicate with him. Although everyone could not hear what Wu Dinghou was saying, everyone could see the trace of pain that could not be concealed in the corners of his eyes. p>
Military warrior...
Is it Shen Qian or Bai Fei?
The powerful men in the mountains and seas are guessing, but the princes standing in the air obviously don't have so many scruples.
Duke Tianning, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke in a pitiful voice, "Marquis Wu Ding, why can't you tell the public?"
Wu Dinghou ignored Duke Tianning, but when Wu Wei saw that many princes were looking at him, he took a deep breath and said, "Qu Bai's spiritual tablet...has been broken into pieces."
Sure enough!
At this moment, even many powerful people from the mountains and seas who had nothing to do with themselves showed sadness and anger on their faces.
Those are all super strong men on the Nine Heavens Ranking.
The human race has always been an ethnic group that values the inheritance of incense more than any other race.
This is also the basis for the human race to continue from ancient times to today!
Ten geniuses who could be said to have been chosen at the moment were almost all killed or injured. The impact of this was not only the direct annihilation of the top geniuses of the decade, but also the invisible loss of the fate of the human race.
"So, only Lin Sanmo and Shen Qian are left... Do you think they will..."
Suddenly, someone whispered something, as if it was just a subconscious whisper. He stopped mid-sentence, but the powerful people present were all very sensitive people, but almost everyone heard his voice.
The atmosphere that was originally filled with grief was stagnant.
In fact, many people have had similar ideas before, but firstly, they were not solid, and secondly, they were a bit ridiculous, so no one ever thought about it carefully.
But... what if they really kill each other?
And the two remaining people who are still alive, whether Lin Sanmo or Shen Qian, seem to have this ability.
Many people shudder just thinking about the possible consequences.
This may even break the internal peace that has been maintained for two hundred years since the recovery of the human race's spiritual energy!
Many people were thinking and thinking until someone around them exclaimed. They looked up and discovered that there was another young man in gray in the air.
He was dressed in robes and had a calm face. With his appearance, there was no big movement in the world.
But everyone can keenly notice that even those as powerful as Gao Zhengjie, Yidaohou and others, their faces have tightened a lot at this moment.
Many people search for each other's faces in their memories until they remember something.
"Sky Swordsman..."
"The Sky Swordsman, who was rumored to have been missing for more than a hundred years, has actually appeared again."
No one knows the name of the Sky Swordsman, but everyone knows that he is an anomaly among the princes.
He did not have a title. It is said that on the day when the title of heaven came, the divine light was directly cut into pieces by him with a sword.
"No one is qualified to dictate my own swordsmanship, not even 'Heaven'!"
This plain but domineering statement has been etched in the memory of many people.
Although Sky Swordsman has no title, he is recognized as a top prince.
Just when they thought of the other party's past and his unique character among princes, everyone suddenly thought of another person.
The young swordsman who once suppressed a generation and eclipsed all geniuses.
"It turns out that Lin Sanmo is actually a disciple of Sky Swordsman..."
Lin Sanmo’s inheritance has always been a mystery, but at this moment everyone had a clear understanding.
Although the Sky Swordsman's face is peaceful, if you look closely, you can still catch the very faint and lingering sadness.
So it’s basically certain...
Lin Sanmo also died!
Countless people's expressions became completely heavy, and even Wu Wei, Ma Gongzuo and others could no longer maintain their peace.
Nine peerless geniuses!
It’s just gone...
"Only Shen Qian is left."
Wu Wei turned his head with complicated eyes and looked towards the void in the square.
He didn't even know whether he wanted to hear the news of Shen Qian's death at this moment, or not.
A long time.
No one knows how long it has been.
But whether it was in the square or between heaven and earth, there was no other movement.
No Marquis of Jingcheng appeared to confirm Shen Qian's death, and no young figure suddenly appeared in the square to tell everyone the truth.
Time passes so quietly.
Until Sky Swordsman, who had been standing quietly since he appeared, suddenly reached out and pulled out something.
"No need to wait, but I can't wait any longer."
There was no beginning or end to these words, but Gao Zhengjie and others seemed to understand them, and they all focused their attention on the hands of the Sky Swordsman.
It was a chessboard, with black and white vertically and horizontally, and a stunning charm.
"Is this... Yanshangong's 'fortunate'?"
Many princes immediately recognized this divine object, and at the same time subconsciously turned their heads and glanced at a foggy area in the prince's seat.
Rumor has it that this was a gift from King Zhou Yi to Duke Yanshan.
"It's 'Tiansuan', yes, Yuga, you actually brought it?"
The foggy area surged, and after a moment the voice of King Zhou Yi rang.
Ever since the changes occurred on the Jiutian battlefield, King Zhou Yi has been silent for some reason. Even when Duke Tianning, Gao Zhengjie and others appeared one by one, he never made a sound. This was the first time he spoke.
Many people silently muttered the name "Yuga" in their hearts. The Sky Swordsman has been famous for a long time, but many people only learned his real name from King Zhou Yi today.
"Before I came here, I went to Beidu to borrow it from Duke Yanshan. The death of nine geniuses in succession has been a major event for the human race in recent times. We must know the reason."
The Sky Swordsman nodded slightly, then looked at Gao Zhengjie and others, "Would you all be willing to contribute?"
"Natural!"
"It is our responsibility!"
Gao Zhengjie and others all nodded, but the strong men from the mountains and seas were a little confused, not knowing what they were going to do.
The Sky Swordsman suddenly waved his hand, and the chessboard in his hand flew into the sky, facing the storm.
At the same time, the Sky Swordsman, Gao Zhengjie, Yi Daohou and Tianning Gong who arrived first, a total of ten princes landed on the chessboard, each holding a piece, and then the chess pieces controlled by the princes began to change rapidly.
Vaguely, you can see some familiar faces flashing past.
Lin Sanmo, Cao Yi, Bai Fei...
Soon, someone understood something and exclaimed: "This is retroactive cause and effect!"
More people were shocked.
This is almost equivalent to a certain level of exclusive means for princes.
Even if some princes are not specialized in this way, with King Zhou Yi's "Heavenly Calculation" as a medium, as beings directly connected with the perished people, they can indeed find the cause and effect easily.
The whole process didn't last long, and soon, all movement on the chessboard stopped.
Needless to say, Lord Tianning, he was 100% sure that the death of the young girl was related to Shen Qian, so it was just a matter of going through the process.
The others' expressions flashed and they were silent for a while.
After a long time, Qin Bacai said expressionlessly: "If I guessed correctly, you also saw it, right?"
The Sky Swordsman said quietly: "The one who is most involved in the life and death of my disciple... Although I don't want to believe the truth due to my friendship with Marquis Jingcheng, the person I saw is indeed Shen Qian.
”
"Shen Qian."
"Shen Qian!"
The other princes also spoke one by one, saying the same words in different tones.
Wu Yi and Qin Xiaoke were chased by Shen Qian before, so it is not surprising that such words came from Gao Zhengjie and Qin Ba. But other princes actually said the same thing, which undoubtedly shows that things have slipped to the worst.
situation.
After a brief silence, the field became noisy.
Even though Ning Zhiyuan and Cheng Qingqing were not at the center of the storm, they felt the cold hostility suddenly rising around them, but their expressions became heavy.
"Everyone!" Wu Wei once again went straight to the sky and stood in a place where everyone could see. His voice was like a loud bell, "Shen Qian hasn't come out yet, so the matter has not yet been concluded. Please give me, Mr. Wu, some face. When Shen Qian If he shows up, I will definitely take him back to the Martial Arts Department to investigate the matter thoroughly and give you an explanation!"
Before anyone else could speak, Duke Tianning, who was high up in the sky, said in a subtle way: "Oh, take him back to the Martial Arts Department for a thorough investigation? I have always heard that Minister Wu values Shen Qian very much. This is really a blatant protection!"
Wu Wei frowned slightly. After being told by Duke Tianning, no matter what his thoughts were, in the eyes of these resentful princes, it would be difficult for him to escape the suspicion of harboring him.
Sure enough, Qin Ba was the first to say coldly: "It concerns the fairness of the Nine Heavens War and the life and death of many peerless geniuses in our human race. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Martial Arts Department alone to make a public decision. I propose that the Prince's Council handle this matter!"
"Second."
"Yes."
"Considering Shen Qian's own particularity, in order to prevent the situation from getting out of control, his cultivation should be imprisoned, his muscles and bones should be cut off the moment he appears, and then the truth should be thoroughly investigated!"
The other princes spoke one after another, and Duke Tianning even added with a sinister smile.
Wu Wei frowned. The so-called princes' council... it is no exaggeration to say that the many princes here have already occupied an unknown amount of the right to speak, not to mention that there are people like Tianning Gong and Yanshan Gong among them. Shen Qian has a prejudiced top powerhouse.
But at this moment, everyone pushed against the wall, and even a strong man like Sky Swordsman who had friendship with Marquis Jingcheng remained silent at this time.
Wu Wei had to turn his attention to the foggy area, "How does King Zhou Yi view this matter?"
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the past.
There was a brief silence, and then the fog dissipated, and a tall and tall man appeared in everyone's sight. It was King Zhou Yi with a dreamy face.
King Zhou Yi smiled lightly and said: "This matter is very involved. It is indeed safer for the princes' council to come forward... huh?"
When King Zhou Yi was halfway through speaking, his face suddenly showed surprise. He raised his head and looked up at a very high place, his expression changing.
Not only King Zhou Yi, Wu Wei, Sky Swordsman, Yidaohou and many other top princes seemed to feel something and looked up, but their faces were more confused.
Seeing all the mountains and seas is even more depressing.
Is there anything else that can make a prince confused?
Vaguely, everyone seemed to hear King Zhou Yi murmuring something in a low voice. Some people strained their ears and finally heard the four words "The River of Time".
But the people who heard it were even more confused, because these four words were so unfamiliar that even if they searched for all the martial arts knowledge in their minds, they still didn't know what they meant.
……
This is a land of nothingness where I don’t know where the structure is. Looking down, it seems that I can see through the clouds and vaguely see a small land surrounded by dark clouds.
But it was difficult for Shen Qian to focus on what was going on at this time, because right in front of him, a vast palace appeared on a stretch of land set off by flowing clouds.
The palace covers an area of thousands of feet, and a stone tablet stands at the door.
It's just that compared to the simple and old hall, the stone tablet looks newer.
There were four vigorous characters engraved on the stone tablet, but they were in modern fonts, so Shen Qian recognized them at a glance, which was also the reason why his pupils shrank.
