Eight hundred and sixty-eighth chapter open and honest
"My little friend is in danger here. You must not have known about our existence before. Please tell me frankly. If you need help, I am a member of the dragon clan and will definitely lend a hand!"
Ao Kuan thought about it and said sincerely.
All the elders put down their wine jars and nodded incessantly, especially Ao Zhan, who patted his chest and promised that as long as there was any in the Dragon Realm, they would definitely get it for him.
Wu Ming played with the wine glass and expressed his gratitude calmly on his face, but in fact he was sneering in his heart.
When it comes to this, the elders still play tricks on him, not to mention that both sides have something to ask for. But if the order is reversed, the party who speaks first will definitely be passive.
Especially now that you are on someone else's territory, and you are seeking something left by your ancestors. If you accidentally cross the line, the elders who are drinking and chatting happily may turn the table and fall out in the next moment.
"To be honest with you elders, I have no choice but to come here because I was forced by the powerful barbarians!"
Wu Ming sighed.
All the elders looked at each other, not expecting such a result.
"Although I have been trapped here for many years, no one from my ancestors has ever gone out. But if the records in the clan are correct, our dragon clan is the most powerful clan in China. The status of the Dragon Xiang envoy is comparable to that of a real dragon. How could we be forced by a mere barbarian?
?”
Ao Kuan was puzzled, and his words contained quite a bit of contempt for the barbarians. This was also due to the records in the stone inscriptions left by his ancestors, who denounced the barbarians very much.
"Hey, to be disrespectful, I'm afraid the True Dragon Sage thinks the same way!"
Wu Ming sighed quietly.
The elders suddenly changed their expressions, and then they all fell into silence. Then they remembered that their ancestors were indeed imprisoned here by the barbarians. If it weren't for the earth-shattering war in the records, they wouldn't even exist.
But facts are facts. No one would be too happy to expose the old truth so ruthlessly, but who makes them really want to ask for help?
"The barbarians have insulted us and the dragon clan too much. You can rest assured, little friend, as long as you are here, no barbarians will be able to harm you at all!"
"Yes, after all these years, we have only learned about the barbarians from the stone inscriptions passed down by our ancestors. They will never come in!"
"With the will of the ancestors, even the barbarian saints will not be aware of the existence of the Dragon Realm. My friend, you can stay here with peace of mind!"
The elders are not very economical, and they will not mention the problems that Wu Ming may have if he lives here permanently.
"To be honest, this junior is forced to come here, and there will be people chasing him behind him. If he doesn't go out by then, I'm afraid..."
How could Wu Ming be fooled? He didn't say anything more as soon as the topic had changed. The meaning was self-evident.
The expressions of the elders changed again. If what Wu Ming said is true, the existence of the Dragon Realm may really be exposed. Even if the Tianque Tower has experienced the changes that year, and no one above the Half-Saint can enter at all, if a large number of strong men are sent to attack, by then
I'm afraid that's not going to be good.
"There are countless resentful spirits of the emperor in the dark wind and ghosts. Any living thing that breaks into this place will..."
Ao Zhan murmured to himself, but after seeing Wu Ming, he couldn't say the rest.
"It's God's will. Could it be that my Dragon Saint heritage will really be cut off..."
An elder with the weakest aura, his face was dejected, his eyes full of despair, and he lost his voice.
"Ao Lin be careful!"
Ao Lu, who had not said a word, suddenly shouted loudly. The old man was so startled that he trembled all over and lowered his head.
Wu Ming's eyes flashed slightly, and Quan pretended not to hear it, but his heart was touched. This elder was the last among the seven, the elder of the Forty-Four Tribe.
"Huh, you can't say this, you can't say that. According to me, what is there to hide? Wu Xiaoyou is not an outsider anyway. Don't you know that if there is no solution, within ten or eight years, we will
meeting……"
Ao Zhan suddenly slammed the table and shouted.
His voice was heard far away, and even if Ao Kuan and Ao Lu wanted to stop it, it was too late.
The faces of the elders seemed to have opened a dyeing workshop. After several changes, they all finally looked at Wu Ming.
"My little friend, please don't worry about it. Ao Zhan was too drunk and made a mistake..."
Ao Kuan explained.
"No need to hide it!"
Ao Lu took a deep breath, patted Ao Kuan on the shoulder, and looked directly at Wu Mingdao, "If my little friend is really forced to enter this place, he is probably looking for a way out, right?"
"This junior doesn't dare to hide it, but he has this idea!"
Wu Ming spoke bluntly and said seriously, "But Tianque Tower is a forbidden area for the barbarians. Even after the drastic changes that year, it is still under control. This time, the will of the Holy Ancestor was invited to open the entrance and put in the geniuses of all races.
If you are looking for opportunities, there is only one way out!"
"No!"
Ao Lu shook his head, and said solemnly on his old face, "There is a second exit, but... it is only recorded in the stone inscriptions of our tribe, and is limited to rumors."
"Is this true?"
Wu Ming's pupils shrank and he lost his voice.
If possible, leaving through an exit not controlled by the barbarians is naturally the safest method and one of Wu Ming's biggest goals, but it is also the most elusive. He did not expect to get clues here.
"The exact record is only recorded in the stone inscriptions mastered by the tribe of the first Dragon Saint. However, my lineage is the direct bloodline of the three main tribes. My ancestors also observed it, but they didn't pay attention to it at the time, because countless
Over the years, I have lost countless lives for this exit, and no one believed it anymore!"
Ao Lu said quietly.
The elders were silent, their expressions vaguely sad, even sad and angry.
Wu Ming knew it clearly, and learned from the stone inscriptions that although there were no detailed records, there were several large-scale operations, and each time they lost troops and generals, which greatly damaged the vitality of the already sparsely populated Dragon Saint legacy.
"If the younger generation wants to observe the stone inscriptions of the main clan, I wonder if the elders can be accommodating?"
Wu Ming knew the legacy of the seven main divisions. Among the forty-nine divisions, he had supreme power and was the real voice of the Presbyterian Church. Without their approval, it would be difficult to see these historical records.
"I can only say that if there are three main tribes, it is very feasible, but for the other main tribes, it is very difficult!"
Ao Lu said bluntly.
The elders nodded one after another, because they were a branch of the main clan of three tribes. Although there was a branch of six tribes, they were ranked at the bottom and did not have much say at all.
Coming here this time was just a matter of time, it was just a meeting, and because we were on good terms with Ao Kuan, we came together.
"In that case..."
Wu Ming squinted his eyes and looked at the old Taoists with eager eyes, "The elders are thinking, if the boy can get out of the Tianque Tower, can he ask the Dragon Clan to take action to rescue the Dragon Saint's legacy from the Tianque Tower?"
"good!"
Ao Kuan nodded, and there was excitement in his cloudy eyes, "To be honest, little friend, the Dragon Realm can no longer survive for many years. Now there are nearly half fewer heirs in each department than a thousand years ago, and the spiritual energy has also become thinner. If this continues,
We must be trapped here to death."
"Ahem!"
Wu Ming coughed lightly and looked at the elders speechlessly.
The concentration of spiritual energy here is far inferior to that of the Bailing Pavilion and Taisu Immortal Palace he has seen, and even the secluded residence of Kun Nian, a semi-sage. If the spiritual energy here is about to be exhausted, it is a desolate Gobi outside.
But after thinking about it, I realized what was going on. Even if it was really due to the depletion of spiritual energy, the congenital deficiency of the Dragon Saint's legacy was probably the real cause.
Of course, this was just a conclusion deduced from discussions between him and Ku Ye, and he could not tell the other party clearly. Even if he said it, he might not believe it.
"Elders and juniors dare not hide it. Throughout ancient times, the Middle Ages and the present, the world has gone through great changes. Things have changed. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is countless times thinner than this place. According to the observations of juniors, this place is close to the ancient landforms and the environment is similar to the ancient times. It is really rare in the world.
It’s a holy land for cultivation.”
Although he couldn't say it clearly, Wu Ming still spoke frankly about the external environment to avoid constraints and misunderstandings in the future.
"how so?"
The faces of all the elders changed horribly.
Having said all that, no one would think that Wu Ming was lying. If that were the case, where would their Dragon Saint legacy go?
Just like in the dragon territory, you can barely survive now, but in the outside environment, if you stay for a long time, you will definitely die.
Now it seems that this is true whether it is in other areas within Tianque Tower or within China.
Wu Ming was also silent. Faced with this situation, even a saint could not create a holy land for cultivation out of thin air for the Dragon Saint's legacy to survive, let alone him.
"It's a pity that if the Mountain and Sea Boundary Pearl is intact, this place can be taken away. Then you can control this power and you will no longer be alone!"
Ku Ye sighed.
Wu Ming raised his eyebrows. The two people speculated that the previous Mountain and Sea Boundary Pearl was damaged in the battle due to the fight between Nightmare Butterfly and Tan Feng. Now it is only suppressed by the will of Lotus Lantern in the sea of consciousness. In addition to using its power to practice when it was obtained.
Ichiban, which has been idle to this day.
"My little friend, what can you do?"
After all, Ao Kuan was old and understood people's hearts. He saw a clue and immediately asked urgently.
"I don't dare to hide it from you. I have thought of a valuable treasure. However, this treasure is extremely precious among all the major forces in China. It is almost the most treasured treasure of the clan. It may be able to solve your troubles."
Wu Ming was silent for a while, then considered it and said, "But the premise is that I can get out of the Tianque Tower. Then I can go to the East China Sea Dragon Palace and describe the events here to His Majesty the Dragon Emperor in detail. With the power of the Dragon Clan, I may be able to help him
I might be able to lend a helping hand and let the Dragon Saint’s legacy survive.”
The matter of the Mountain and Sea Boundary Pearl is too important, let alone a bunch of Dragon Saint heritage that has nothing to do with each other. Wu Ming will not tell anyone about it, no matter how close he is.
For example, Shan Lao now values him very much. If he knew that he had this treasure in his hand, he would definitely not hesitate to snatch it away, regardless of his identity, as a fundamental treasure for the propagation of the ethnic group.
"In that case, without further ado, I'll wait..."
The elders looked at each other and exchanged secretly. Before Ao Lu finished speaking, their expressions changed.
Hoho!
Waves of horns roaring like dragons spread throughout the space in an instant. All the tribesmen looked up at the sky and suddenly changed their expressions. They thought they had suffered some kind of terrorist attack. However, after listening carefully, they all let out a long breath.
.
"This is a trumpet call that will only be issued when something major happens. Obviously something big happens within the main clan, and we must rush there as soon as possible!"
But all the elders looked solemn, especially Ao Lu. He looked at Wu Ming and said, "My little friend, please come with me!"
Wu Ming nodded without hesitation.
"Um?"
Ao Lu suddenly took out a leaf-shaped jade pendant from his arms, rubbed it for a while and then said, "Another foreign tribe has come in, and it's within the main tribe!" (To be continued)
