As soon as these words came out, Liu Biao felt a deep sadness in his heart.
He had met Liu Xie before. Although he was not a brilliant person, he was still a young member of the royal family with outstanding talents. He was also favored by Emperor Ling and had the possibility of succeeding to the throne.
As a result, once the situation changed, even the Ling Emperor lost power. In the end, Liu Xie was abandoned by his beloved father in the past for the sake of enjoyment in the rest of his life.
Give up without hesitation.
"With the demon clan as the scapegoat, everything has been arranged!"
Liu Yan smiled and said: "Jing Sheng, do you deserve this wealth?"
"Such a comprehensive approach that leaves no room for error is not your fault!"
Liu Biao was silent for a long time, and suddenly looked at Sima Yi: "I've heard that your Sima family has a method of borrowing objects to represent the real thing. It seems that after the incident, Liu Yan's retreat was also arranged by you?"
"General Zhonglang's words are serious. Zong Zhengji has his own destiny."
Sima Yi handed over his hand with impeccable etiquette, and his answer was even more appropriate, but Liu Biao already knew why the Sima family sent this gentle and elegant young man.
The two just-in-time memorials persuaded Liu Yan to risk everything and seize Emperor Ling's desire for pleasure. This arrangement not only deprived the Han Dynasty of the origin of Dongtian, but also suppressed the crown prince's undefeated edge. In the future, in the alliance of seven aristocratic families, Hanoi Sima was no longer at the bottom.
Killing several birds with one stone!
Facing Sima Yi's startling steps and Liu Yan's aggressiveness, Liu Biao sighed and finally nodded.
"good!"
Liu Yan clapped his hands: "Zhongda, just follow Jing Sheng for a while and ask him for advice!"
It's called asking for advice, but it's actually monitoring.
Everything was ready, Liu Yan watched Liu Biao and Sima Yi leave, Liu Yan was determined, but when he thought about the hard work of more than ten years, he had to give up most of it for nothing, and he felt heartbroken.
He looked down at the cave sky, his eyes flashing with sharp light, and he gritted his teeth: "In the last few days, I will take away all the treasures of heaven and earth that I can take away! Prince, I will definitely make you regret it!"
…
…
"Human cave, so peaceful, meow!"
On the other side, Gu Cheng was holding a snow-white civet cat in his arms, with no trace of color on its body, walking in the mountains and fields of Jianyuan Cave.
The place is vast and sparsely populated, and there are no royal children. However, there are many strange beasts passing by. They look at the two monsters with curiosity and a vague look of intimacy when they come up.
Every time this happens, King Xueluo Li will stretch out his cat paw, touch the opponent's head, and then sigh like this.
"Your Highness belongs to a clan of holy beasts. He doesn't know the pain of ordinary little demons like us. The cave has limited capacity and the source is depleting. We can only eliminate them through fighting! After I became the demon queen, the number of clan members increased to one thousand, and the rest are still in the clan.
Let them fend for themselves in a hundred thousand mountains."
Xueluo Li King's green eyes were filled with sadness, and he murmured to himself: "The high priest said, it would be great if there was a demon world, meow, that is our home."
"The demon world..."
Gu Cheng's eyes flashed.
He knows that all cave heavens actually exist dependent on the world. The difference is that the big cave heaven has a strong origin and can still be self-sufficient without the world, maintaining it for hundreds or even thousands of years, while the small cave heaven can't get the power of the world.
Supplement, it will die out soon.
With the rise of the human race and the great prosperity of humanity, this world is undoubtedly dominated by humans. Even if the demon clan Dongtian is attached, it is extremely difficult to transform the original power. The weakening demon clan naturally longs for the birth of the demon world.
"As long as there is a need."
Gu Cheng nodded slightly and suddenly looked into the distance.
There are several beast figures there, gathering towards here. It is the Rising Sun Crow King, Howling Wolf King and other monsters, but they have changed back to their original forms to explore for information.
"Your Highness! The vitality of the southwest is stable."
"There are no abnormalities in the northeast direction."
…
Following the reports from each demon king, Gu Cheng quickly eliminated most of the wrong directions.
As soon as he entered Jianyuan Cave, he realized something was wrong.
The vitality moves strangely, and its origin seems to be constantly passing away.
This is because Gu Cheng's own cultivation has advanced to the Union Realm, and he has developed the ability of the True Dragon Emperor. Otherwise, relying solely on the power of the mysterious weapon, he would not be able to detect this even if he could compete with the giants of the Union Realm.
Subtle changes.
However, Liu Yan did build the Jianyuan Cave Heaven with such copper and iron walls that water could not penetrate. Unless Gu Cheng directly took over the power of the Cave Heaven, he would not be able to find the abnormality for a while.
Fortunately, there are free thugs.
The demons from all directions sent to Luoyang this time are all the best among the demon kings. They each have innate magical powers and are extremely sensitive to the fluctuations of the vitality of heaven and earth.
In addition, only the Liu family's royal family lives in Jianyuan Cave, and no common people live there. It can be said that it is a vast area and sparsely populated. In order to practice, most of the Liu family's children have cut off their heads and squeezed into the central dragon city. Few people open caves outside, which is more convenient.
.
Use the stupidest method, blanket search and troubleshooting, to find the abnormality.
Sure enough, the next moment "good" news came from the Five Thunder Lion King: "Your Highness, the Black Gong Pig King has been captured by humans!"
"where?"
Gu Cheng's eyes lit up and he immediately asked.
Each of the eight surviving demon kings has been concealed by him. There are many strange beasts in Jianyuan Cave. They blend in and are inconspicuous. It is basically impossible to find out their identity. Nine times out of ten, they are mistaken.
Entering the "forbidden area".
However, this time, Gu Cheng also guessed wrong.
The Five Thunder Lion King said in a loud voice: "Old Zhu and I were on the same road. As soon as we parted, I saw a palm reaching down from the sky, and it took away four strange beasts in one fell swoop, including Old Pig."
"Hands from heaven?"
Gu Cheng's eyes narrowed: "Liu Yan?"
As the deputy master of Dongtian, Liu Yan cannot clearly understand Jianyuan Dongtian, but he does possess powerful power.
This was also the reason why he didn't want to have a head-on confrontation with him. Emperor Ling had delegated his powers too much. Now if he wanted to safely take back the cave, he would have to go through a lot of trouble under normal circumstances.
But why did Liu Yan suddenly capture the wild beasts?
“Go there and have a look!”
Gu Cheng waved his hand to cover his body, hugged the civet cat, and drove a group of wolves, lions and crows towards the place where the pig demon was captured.
No matter how big the cave is, it is still a small world. The demon king's footsteps are so fast. He arrived in a short time. Gu Cheng observed carefully and had an idea.
"This is to take the money and run away."
Rare and rare animals disappeared, and exotic flowers and plants were poached.
Liu Yan was very secretive. When the clan members were busy with the enthronement ceremony and catching monsters in the imperial city, it was really difficult to detect that he was guarding and stealing.
It's a pity that people's hearts are not as strong as snakes swallowing elephants. He never expected that the prince had arrived.
"These heavenly materials and earthly treasures are all materials for refining elixirs in the Dragon Cauldron of Creation. They cannot be taken out unless there is a small cave inside! What a Liu Yan, you can really compare with He Shen..."
Gu Cheng sneered and closed his eyes.
The entire Jianyuan Cave Heaven, in a sense, serves the Dragon Cauldron of Creation.
The Good Fortune Dragon Cauldron refines elixirs and then distributes them to various branches of the clan to ensure the strength of the royal family's children. But where do the raw materials for these elixirs come from?
On the one hand, the thirteen states in the world offer offerings from all directions, but the more stable sources are the rare birds and animals, exotic flowers and plants, and even metal ores raised and cultivated in the cave.
What Liu Yan harvested today was only a few tens of miles around, and he took about half of it. He continued to do the same every day, accumulating over time, and in March and April, he was rich again.
But this greed also exposed the location of Wanbaoshan.
The demon power of Qilin Changshengce, combined with the power of the supreme flame dragon, allowed Gu Cheng's spiritual thoughts to extend infinitely, following the traces towards the source.
Not long after, a treasure mountain with extremely brilliant spiritual light appeared in front of him. The light was so dazzling that even Gu Cheng couldn't help but take a breath.
But what concerned him even more was that above Wanbao Mountain, a passage quietly opened, and another cave sky loomed, continuously absorbing the origin of Jianyuan Cave Heaven and strengthening itself.
"Sima Hanoi, you dare to dig into my big man's corner?"
Gu Chengsouhun Yuan Feng had a clear understanding of the characteristics of the caves of the eight great families in the world, and immediately judged that this cave, which had a fictitious foundation and had not been opened for more than a century, was the Taikang Cave of Sima, Hanoi.
Gu Cheng was not surprised but happy.
The competition in Dongtian has always been non-fancy, with no moves or skills at all. The battle is about the strength of the source. Therefore, if it is the Yuan family of Runan and the Yang family of Hongnong, who have been running Dongtian for nearly a thousand years, and have a foundation that even the Han Dynasty cannot match, it would be a lose-lose situation for both parties.
It can only be expelled.
As for Hanoi Sima...
"Ha! I'll accept it with a smile and won't thank you!"
Gu Cheng raised the corner of his mouth, looked at the group of monsters, and smiled softly: "I can't tell you, I'm going to wrong you."
