On the sea, a huge black turtle poked its head out and shouted to Jiang Chen from a distance.
"Xuanwu?"
Jiang Chen had a curious expression on his face. Although this black turtle looked like a turtle, its tail was a snake's tail.
The tortoise and the snake are one body, it is Xuanwu!
"But the Xuanwu Holy Beast wants to see me?" When the Xuanwu came to his side, Jiang Chen asked.
"Exactly, the ancestor knew that the King of Humans was going to pass by here, so he specially asked me to wait here so that he could invite the King of Humans to go to the North Pole for a talk."
"This is Senior Xuanwu's invitation, how can Jiang Chen refuse? Please lead the way, fellow Taoist." Although he didn't know why the Xuanwu Divine Beast wanted to see him, Jiang Chen did not refuse, but went happily.
Not to mention that he himself is curious about the five holy beasts, how could he refuse the invitation from the holy beasts? The strength of a holy beast with the word "sacred" in its name can be imagined.
If Jiang Chen were the Human King, he could still manipulate others in front of them, but he is just the Human King, so forget it. If people are unhappy, even if they beat you, you can only endure it.
"Human King, please follow me!"
This Xuanwu had the cultivation of an innate Taoist, but he was extremely respectful in front of Jiang Chen, keeping his attitude very low and carefully leading the way.
This is the difference brought about by the change of status. If Jiang Chen was not the human king, then his strength is much better than this Xuanwu, and he would not be treated like this. As a descendant of the holy beast, the Xuanwu clan still has this arrogance.
of.
It's a pity that Jiang Chen is the human king. He has received the destiny since the human race became the protagonist of the world. To become the human king means to inherit the destiny. The so-called person with destiny is the human king.
The human king has the destiny of heaven within him, and he can be said to be the executor of heaven's will. Who dares to despise him, both inside and outside the ancient times? Even those with great supernatural powers dare not, let alone a small innate Taoist.
…
The Holy Beast Xuanwu is a contemporary of Hongjun Daozu, and is the first batch of creatures born after the creation of heaven and earth. It was active at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth, and became famous during the Longhan period. It was the deputy of Zulong, and ruled the scales with him.
A vein.
Later, a war broke out between the three tribes, which caused the heaven and earth to become unbalanced, the four poles were in chaos, and the earth was on the verge of collapse.
In order to save the world and atone for sins, the five top supernatural powers who were the heads of the three clans at that time, namely the Ancestral Dragon and Xuanwu of the scale lineage, the Ancestral Phoenix of the bird lineage, and the Qilin and White Tiger of the beast lineage, jointly established a general trend.
I wish to transform into a holy beast to suppress the four major lands and quell disasters.
Since then, the heads of the three clans have disappeared, but there have been five more holy beasts in the world: Qinglong, Suzaku, Xuanwu, White Tiger, and Qilin. They have the power to rival the saints. But the price is that they will lose their freedom forever. Only when a catastrophe occurs in the world
Only when you have time can you come out and let the wind blow for a while.
The Xuanwu Holy Beast is a water-based holy beast, and it is suppressed in the North Pole, and the North Pole is in Beiming. It can be said that the North Pole is the key to Beiming. Countless years have passed, and no one dares to come to Beiming.
Are they afraid of Kunpeng when they cause trouble? No, they are afraid of the sacred beast Xuanwu.
"Fellow Taoist, do you know why Senior Xuanwu wants to see me?" On the way to the Arctic Land, Jiang Chen curiously asked Xuanwu beside him, wanting to find out why the Holy Beast Xuanwu wanted to see him.
"I don't know either. In fact, before the ancestor wanted to meet the human king, I didn't even know that the ancestor knew the human king."
The Xuanwu replied honestly. He was also confused. The two parties clearly had no interaction, but why did the ancestor want to see Jiang Chen?
"this……"
"Then we can only ask Senior Saint Beast face to face after meeting him."
As the two of them were talking, the Arctic land appeared in front of them.
It was a vast ocean, a black ocean. It looked small, only about a hundred miles long. But these were all appearances. The water here was all transformed by the essence of water. Every drop was extremely heavy. When put into the human world,
It can turn into a vast ocean.
"Human King, this is the land of the North Pole. Only with the order of our ancestors can we travel freely to and from it. If not, even if the Innate Taoist Master enters it rashly, he will be melted by the water vapor here in no time."
The Xuanwu opened his mouth and asked Jiang Chen to stand on his back so that he could take him in.
However, before Jiang Chen could take action, a light spot suddenly appeared in the center of the black ocean, which continued to grow in size and turned into a rainbow bridge extending to Jiang Chen's feet.
"this……"
"Human King, it seems that our ancestors value you very much and even lowered a rainbow bridge to welcome you. This is the treatment you would receive from a distinguished guest."
This Xuanwu was stunned and felt that it was a bit unbelievable. Although the human king was extraordinary, he was not worthy of his ancestor.
"Fellow Taoist, since you have been invited by me, I will take the first step." Jiang Chen smiled, stepped onto the Hongqiao Bridge, and walked towards the depths of the North Pole.
Each of the four poles has its own mystery. When Jiang Chen walked into it, he felt that the surrounding space had changed, as if he had entered a world made entirely of water. As far as he looked, he could see the vast ocean.
Jiang Chen didn't care, and kept moving forward until he came to the end of Hongqiao, a small island. In the center of the island, stood a kind-looking old man, looking at him with a smile.
But the strange thing was that even though he was standing in front of Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen couldn't sense his presence. He tried his best to detect even a hint of his aura.
This is a sign that the gap is too large.
"Jiang Chen, who is a junior student, has met his seniors!"
Knowing that this person was the holy beast Xuanwu, Jiang Chen stepped forward and greeted him with the courtesy of a junior.
Xuanwu Holy Beast did not reply immediately, but looked at him for a long time, and then nodded with a smile and said: "The aura of the Shinto, seeing you with my own eyes finally verified the guess in my heart, that the incense Shinto is
You opened it up."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen suddenly showed a surprised look on his face, and asked in confusion: "Shinto, what is the incense and fire Shinto? Why did the senior say this?"
Others can know that he opened up the divine way, but before the way was revealed, Jiang Chen could not admit it to avoid being perceived by others.
"Stop pretending, young people are more cautious in doing things. This is the Arctic land, the territory of the old. Even old Hongjun can't find out what you and I are talking about without my permission. You can rest assured."
The Xuanwu Saint Beastman was so mature that he didn't know Jiang Chen's concerns and spoke directly to him.
"How did senior doubt me?"
The Xuanwu Holy Beast said this, so Jiang Chen naturally couldn't deny it anymore, so he immediately admitted it and asked him how he noticed this.
It's not that Jiang Chen is bragging about how well he concealed it. In fact, it has always been Heaven's work to hide the divine way.
Are you kidding me? What kind of cultivation level is Jiang Chen? How could he hide something as big as the Divine Way? If not for the Divine Way, he would have been found out long ago.
"It's very simple. Shinto is related to the power of wishes. In today's prehistoric times, you are the one who has the most profound grasp of the power of wishes of all living beings. If you think about it for a moment, you will guess that it is you."
"As for such a simple thing, why haven't others guessed it? That is of course the work of Heaven, and people deliberately ignore this."
"Under the influence of Heaven, although these flaws were obvious, they were all subconsciously ignored. Naturally, no one would suspect you."
The Holy Beast of Xuanwu said lazily, there are really too many flaws in Jiang Chen's creation of the divine way, which means that the divine way is awesome, otherwise who could he hide it from?
"Senior's cultivation is extremely high, and this junior admires him so much?"
Jiang Chen had to admit that he was being fooled today. The Black Tortoise Holy Beast didn't mention his power at all, but everything in his words revealed one meaning, I am very awesome, very awesome.
Otherwise, why could he escape from the influence of Heaven and discover this obvious flaw.
It is not difficult to discover this flaw, but what is difficult is how to get rid of the influence of heaven. Since Xuanwu can do this, its strength is self-evident, and it is definitely at an extreme level.
"Don't try to elevate me. I've just lived longer and have more experience in dealing with the way of heaven than others, so I can get rid of the influence in time. As for my strength, hey, let's not talk about it. It's too embarrassing. I've been driven away by many younger generations.
Go up."
The Xuanwu Holy Beast shook his head and said with great regret.
"Ancestor is joking."
Jiang Chen smiled, naturally he didn't believe the words of the Xuanwu Holy Beast. No matter how weak his strength was, it was still not comparable to Kunpeng and his ilk. In addition, if he said that his strength was weak, does that mean he was weak? What if he compared it?
Is the person you are targeting, Patriarch Hongjun?
Moreover, he also said that his cultivation level has been surpassed by many younger generations. The word "catch up" is very good. If he really wants to be inferior to others, he should be said to be weak, not to catch up...
"Are you curious why I asked someone to invite you here?" The two of them chatted for a while, and then the Xuanwu Holy Beast finally got down to business.
Jiang Chen did not speak, but waited for the Xuanwu Holy Beast to speak.
"The reason is very simple. I think Shinto is useful to me, so I decided to invest in you in advance and establish a good relationship with you so that when I ask you for help in the future, you will not be able to refuse."
Xuanwu Holy Beast did not mince words and stated his purpose very directly. He wanted to invest in Jiang Chen in advance so that when he asked for help in the future, he would not be able to refuse.
"Is the Shinto useful to seniors?" Jiang Chen frowned and looked at the Xuanwu Holy Beast in confusion.
"What do you think of this arctic land?"
The Xuanwu Holy Beast did not answer Jiang Chen's doubts, but asked him an irrelevant question.
"The Arctic land is naturally excellent. It is not much worse than the human race's holy land, Huoyun Cave. It should be regarded as the top holy land in the wild."
"It's just that although this place is nice, but..."
Jiang Chen did not say anything else.
The Arctic land is really good. He discovered it when he first came here. It is no worse than the Fire Cloud Cave. Just like this small island, the chaos energy is surging on it and the atmosphere of the avenue is permeated. Jiang Chen believes that he was transformed from the fragments of chaos.
.
"You can't be free, right?"
What Jiang Chen didn't say later was filled in by the Xuanwu Holy Beast.
Although the Arctic land has many good things, for the Holy Beast Xuanwu, its essence is a prison that has imprisoned him for endless years, with no escape or freedom.
"So, senior, do you think Shinto can help you break away from the group?"
Jiang Chen is a little overconfident. He doesn't think that Shinto can help the Xuanwu Holy Beast escape from its predicament and get rid of the constraints of the Arctic. Of course, even if it can, he won't dare.
The five sacred beasts suppressing the four poles are essentially atonement for their sins. If they are released and the four poles of heaven and earth are re-imbalanced, who will be blamed for the overwhelming karma?
Jiang Chen's small arms and legs cannot bear such a big sin. He has been constantly testing the bottom line of Heaven's Dao. If the holy beast is suddenly released, Heaven's Dao will not let him go no matter how much it values him, and will probably directly
Give him a punishment from heaven.
"Where are you thinking? Since the incense Shinto is related to the power of incense and wish, then do you think that in today's prehistoric times, who can compare with the holy beast in terms of the power of wish?"
The Xuanwu Holy Beast smiled, and the void behind him suddenly trembled. Endless wishing power emerged, surging like a vast ocean, as if it was about to fill the whole world.
This wish power is really too much. It is the most wish power Jiang Chen has seen so far.
Yes, from ancient times to the present, how many people can match the strength of the Five Elements Sacred Beasts? You must know that since the most ancient era of ignorance, countless races have believed in the Five Elements Sacred Beasts.
Today, the belief in the Five Elements Sacred Beasts has not disappeared, but has become more prosperous. It has been integrated into the lives of all races, taking into account all aspects, and is almost indispensable.
And after so many years, one can imagine the amount of wish power accumulated in the Five Elements Sacred Beast, which is vast and endless, beyond imagination.
"I roughly understand what your senior means. Do you want to practice Shinto at the same time, and then use it to bypass the restrictions of the four poles and walk in the world in the form of a god?"
Jiang Chen probably understands the meaning of the Xuanwu Holy Beast. They have so much will power in them, and it would be a waste if they were idle. It is better to use it and seek a divine status. If you can use this to bypass the restrictions of the Four Poles, you can start again.
Walking in the wilderness is naturally a wonderful experience.
If not, it wouldn't be a loss to have one more powerful incarnation of Shinto.
"It's easy to chat with smart people. After you establish the divine way, I, including the other four, want to practice this way." The Xuanwu Holy Beast nodded, confirming Jiang Chen's guess, and stated his request.
"Jiang Chen cannot guarantee whether Shinto can help the five seniors bypass the restrictions of the Four Poles, but what is certain is that Shinto can indeed improve the strength of the five seniors."
Jiang Chen did not agree first, but started analyzing it for Xuanwu.
"Well, we all know what you said. We have deduced it many times. If it were not the case, we would not invite you to come and see you."
The Xuanwu Holy Beast has such a level of cultivation. Since Jiang Chen was invited, everything has been settled.
"The five seniors want to join Shinto, but the juniors are too late to be happy, so how can they refuse? I can even guarantee that the five seniors can be given the supreme status, second only to me, and equal to the Lord of God."
Jiang Chen nodded and directly promised the five holy beasts the supreme divine position.
Is this status high? It must be high. It is the same as the Lord of God, which means it has the same status as the Lord of Shinto. However, even with such a high status, it is vaguely unworthy of being given to the Holy Beasts of the Five Directions.
What is a holy beast? To stand shoulder to shoulder with a saint! The status of the five holy beasts in heaven and earth can be seen from this.
