After giving Xia Feihu a cold look, Shen Zhui turned to look at Yang Ruye and nodded, acknowledging it.
"Coax~" Behind Yang Ruye, the expressions on the faces of the ten generals of the Spirit Guard Army and the Yang family members who followed Yang Ruye became extremely exciting.
"Is this serious?!" Yang Ruye stared at Shen Zhui closely.
Greedy Wolf bowed his hands to the huge statue in front of him and said solemnly: "My lord performed outstandingly in the realm war, and his military achievements ranked first among the three armies.
Your Majesty favors me, and the imperial edict of the reward has been issued half a month ago. The six central departments have been backed up. I will go to the capital soon to offer sacrifices to heaven and make a public announcement to the world."
After receiving the other party's affirmation, Yang Ruye was a little distracted for a moment, and pretended to be calm: "It's the old man who has lost his temper. I didn't expect that General Shen, at such a young age, would be granted the title of Marquis of Wu, and still, still..."
Shen Zhui sighed in his heart, and also raised his hands and said: "Junior is lucky enough to get this title, so I came here to pay my respects. General Yang is invincible in his life, and I don't dare to compete with General Yang. I just hope that I can avoid dishonoring this title. Previously, there was There are really many difficulties behind what I’m hiding, and I hope Elder Wan will understand.”
Yang Ruye smiled bitterly and nodded. Of course he could understand why Shen Zhui hid it. Firstly, it was to take care of the feelings of the Yang family, which Yang Ruye was grateful for. Secondly, it was also to avoid unnecessary trouble. If someone from the clan was The genius knows that Shen Zhui was awarded the title of Champion and did something extraordinary in his hot head.
I don’t know if Shen Zhui has something wrong, but the Yang family is probably going to be accused. Not just because of King Zhao, because this is His Majesty’s will. Questioning the title of the champion, doesn’t it mean questioning the current emperor?
When the time comes, the Yang family will have a bad reputation of suppressing the underachievers and showing no tolerance for others.
"But why would His Majesty grant a fifth level to a Venerable..." Yang Qing on the side couldn't help but question.
"Shut up!" Yang Ruye shouted sharply. "It's not your turn to discuss this matter."
"General Shen... don't pay attention to the Marquis." Yang Ruye said. "I understand the difficulty of the Marquis. The younger generation is impulsive and does not understand etiquette. I also ask the Marquis to ignore them. I will accompany the Marquis and restrain them."
After saying that, Yang Ruye showed his coercion. The group of young people standing behind Yang Ruye immediately did not dare to say a word. But the eyes he looked at Shen Zhui were not as kind as before, but slightly more hostile. , meaning of provocation.
"snort!"
Yang Ruye snorted coldly, and no one dared to say anything. Yang Ruye then smiled and said: "Let's go, let's go visit the former site of the True God."
"Yeah." Shen Zhui, Lu Yuanwei and Tanlang all glanced at Xia Feihu, who immediately turned pale and did not dare to say anything more.
After all, he is not a marquis. If tit-for-tat continues, the two titles of Marquis Wenxin and Marquis Champion are not empty.
Immediately, Shen Zhui and his group landed in the Holy Stone Forest, and then went to visit the former site of the True God.
…………
Although Yang Ruye's status among the tribe was not low and he was quite majestic, the news about the birth of a new champion and the arrival of the Extreme Flame Forbidden Land spread quickly.
Yang Ruye could restrain their bodies, but he could not control their thoughts. Not long after they got off the warship, more and more people knew that the imperial court had newly named a champion.
"What?!"
"The imperial court gave the title of Champion Marquis to Wu'an Army Shen Zhui? A little-known fifth-level venerable?"
"I heard that he made a lot of contributions in the realm war and ranked first among the three armies in military service."
"So what? The champion can only be a member of our Yang family!!"
"Quickly, go check it out!"
"Where is Shen Zhui? I want to challenge him! Let's see what virtue he has and what he can do?!"
"I heard I went to the Sacred Stone Forest!"
"..."
The news spread quickly throughout the forbidden area like a whirlwind. It should be noted that no one has won the championship for 800 years, and it has always been regarded as the goal of the Yang family's geniuses. The geniuses who join the army all want to win from the hands of the Human Emperor. Obtaining this title, honoring the ancestors, welcoming back the glory of the Yang family, and creating a good story... But now, it is snatched away by an outsider, a powerless young man. How can I bear this? So everyone wants to go. Meet this new champion and see who he is! He can actually steal the glory of the Yang family!
But at this moment, Shen Zhui and his group had arrived at the former site of the True God where the first generation of Spirit Guards lived, at the very center of the Holy Stone Forest.
"Huh?" As soon as he entered the central area of the sacred stone forest, Shen Zhui saw eighteen small statues standing here, and these statues were all surrounded by a huge circle, guarding a hundred miles radius inside.
The entire land with a radius of hundreds of miles is extremely flat and smooth, as if it has been polished. And in the center of it, lies a golden, huge, and roaring... dragon!
"This..." Shen Zhui and the others were also stunned. Because this dragon was lifelike, exactly like a living creature. The dragon scales on it shone with golden light. When facing the pair of huge dragon eyes, they all felt a strange feeling. The hatred soaring to the sky wants to choose someone to devour!
"How could this happen..." Shen Zhui was completely shocked.
In the open space with a radius of hundreds of miles, there is a yellow golden dragon with teeth and claws, and the roaring look up to the sky is full of majesty. It is not that Shen Zhui has never seen the dragon tribe before, he himself has a drop of Yinglong essence and blood, and even In the world of Daxia, I have seen a living Yinglong, but after all, it was a venerable-level Yinglong, and it was an illusion of true literature.
But what's different here is that based on the aura emanating from it and the faint spatial fluctuations, you can definitely feel it... this is a living dragon!
"The ancient mythical beast ranks third, the nine-clawed golden dragon." Shen Zhui's eyes widened. "And it's at least the true god level!"
Shen Zhui asked himself that he had seen the world, but when he saw a living nine-clawed golden dragon appearing in front of him, and it was at the level of a true god, he was immediately shocked.
Why is there a living mythical beast here?
"No, this dragon doesn't seem to be alive." Lu Yuanwei took a look, his face was shocked, but he immediately discovered something was wrong.
Because this dragon has always maintained the same posture. Although his eyes are wide open, the look in his eyes is exactly the same.
Moreover, there were many wounds on the golden dragon's body, and even many dragon scales were missing. However, the wounds did not heal on their own, and no blood flowed out, as if they were completely solidified.
"What, what's going on?" Shen Zhui asked. It was so weird, like he was alive, but he happened to feel the fluctuation of the soul, even the breath of the true god. And that trace of induction in the blood allowed Shen Zhui to Make sure this golden dragon is not a statue. "Is he dead or alive? Why is he here?"
Yang Ruye looked melancholy and said: "It is neither alive nor dead. It is also a real existence. It is not a statue, but it has been watching here for eight hundred years..."
The group of people behind Yang Ruye also expressed emotion and even admiration.
"Could it be..." Greedy Wolf thought.
"That's right...this golden dragon was the companion of my ancestor of the Yang family back then!"
"What?" Shen Zhui was shocked.
At this moment, he also remembered that when Yang An defected to Emperor Tianming and made great achievements, Emperor Tianming once rewarded Yang An with a young dragon he pulled.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be this nine-clawed golden dragon!
"Master Hou is right, it is indeed alive." Yang Ruye said another shocking news.
"Alive?" This time, Lu Yuanwei was also shocked. He didn't expect that the golden dragon in front of him was actually alive!
"Back then, our ancestors entered Yiyang City to accept the surrender of the puppet king. They left the golden dragon in the military camp and only brought eighteen personal guards into the city."
"I didn't expect that I would be assassinated by a traitor!!" Yang Ruye said with red eyes.
"The ancestors tried their best and finally opened a passage and sent eighteen soldiers out to report to His Majesty."
"The target of the traitor was the ancestor, so the eighteen guards escaped by chance, but the golden dragon... sensed the danger of his master and would rather die than retreat!"
"Eighteen personal guards sent people to report the news, and together with Jin Long, they wanted to go in and rescue the ancestors. However, later, the entire Yiyang City was destroyed under the sacrifice of the large formation. Fire and evil spewed from the sky and the earth, and no one could come close within a radius of thousands of miles. , even the true God can’t get close.”
"The fire in Yiyang City did not go out, and Jin Long could not enter, but he refused to leave, so he waited here for the return of his ancestors... The eighteen personal guards felt guilty, so they stayed here with Jin Long and waited for a hundred years. "
"To be so loyal..." Everyone was moved by this legend.
"After a hundred years of waiting, we finally failed to wait for our ancestors." Yang Ruye said with emotion. "His Majesty's imperial decree ordered the eighteen personal guards to return to the capital and return with the golden dragon."
"Although the golden dragon was strong and resisted desperately, it was still taken back. But after it woke up, in order to escape from the restraint, it actually wanted to explode... It was so strong that even His Majesty couldn't do anything about it."
"I had no choice but to let the golden dragon go. In the end... it came back here again."
"Then he is now..." Shen Zhui looked at the golden dragon, full of emotion, but also a little confused. Is the nine-clawed golden dragon dead or alive? Since it is alive, why is it motionless, as if it is dead?
As if seeing Shen Zhui's doubts, Yang Ruye shook his head and said: "The golden dragon is dedicated to guarding, but where it is, it has to spend endless strength to fight against the sky fire and lung fire every day. At that time, no one can enter this place except the true god. Even when His Holiness comes, he can only stay for one day.”
"Later, the golden dragon requested the Human Emperor to cooperate with it in using its innate magical power to stop time, sealing all of its self, and keeping its soul still until the ancestors returned from Yiyang City... So far, they have been watching for eight hundred years."
After hearing what Yang Ruye said, Shen Zhui couldn't help but sigh.
The mythical beast has a spirit, and after recognizing its master, it is difficult to change its original intention. Unlike the soul secret method, Yang An did not use the soul secret method to enslave the golden dragon, but fought side by side like a partner.
He didn't expect that Jin Long had such deep feelings for Yang An. He refused to believe that Yang An was dead and had been waiting here for eight hundred years.
A nine-clawed golden dragon, and it is in its prime, in the realm of true gods, and its combat power is enough to defeat the top true gods! If it is willing to give up, it can go anywhere in the world, and it will definitely be respected by people. But it has been waiting here, even He didn't hesitate to let the emperor help it use its innate magical powers, and sealed its soul together.
After obtaining Ying Long's inheritance information, Shen Zhui naturally knew that the golden dragon's innate magical powers were extremely powerful and that he was good at time-based talents.
But with his innate magical power, even a true god cannot stay still for hundreds of years. For example, Shen Zhui is currently using the Yinglong Incarnation and the Absolute Domain, which is a form of spatial confinement.
But even if the Venerable is at the fifth level, this duration can only last for seven or eight seconds at most. This is only possible if Shen Zhui exerts all his strength and does not consider the consumption.
The longer you delay, the greater the price you pay!
For hundreds of years, this golden dragon would have to rely on the power of the Human Emperor to achieve it, and the price paid would probably be extremely huge.
The longer it goes on, the slimmer the chance of unblocking it. Just like now, if Shen Zhui's senses weren't so keen, even Lu Yuanwei wouldn't be able to feel the fluctuations in its life, and just suspect that it's not dead.
"What a pity..." Shen Zhui looked at the roaring golden dragon looking up to the sky, and seemed to see a lonely figure, which had been roaring towards the old Yiyang City, waiting for the return of its master...
It is a pity not only for Yang An, but also for this loyal beast.
At this moment, Shen Zhui suddenly felt an impulse in his heart, "Can I get closer and watch?"
"As long as the Marquis does not cross those eighteen statues," Yang Ruye said. "If you cross the statues, you will be affected by the rules, and your whole person will be affected by the stasis of time. Even the true god cannot save you at that time. "
"Understood." Shen Zhui nodded, and jumped directly to the stone platform at the foot of the tall military commander statue.
Nine-clawed golden dragon, the divine beast of time, Shen Zhui looked at the secret patterns on the golden dragon's body, as if the time around him had slowed down and was full of endless mystery.
Seeing Shen Zhui immersed in enlightenment, Yang Ruye said to Lu Yuanwei and others: "It seems that Lord Hou has gained something. Divine beasts are rare in the world. Many geniuses have been watching the golden dragon here for ten or eight years, but they may not have realized anything. I didn't expect it." The Marquis actually realized something so quickly..."
The rules of time are the most mysterious, and there are not many objects that can be understood, because such treasures are very rare. A living golden dragon, especially when it is still in the state of [time is still], is extremely rare. So here It will attract many people to observe and understand.
"However, remember not to cross the range of the statue, otherwise your life will be in danger..." Yang Ruye warned.
"I know, thank you for reminding me." Lu Yuanwei and others also began to observe the scales and secret patterns on the golden dragon's body.
Time passed by minute by second, and Shen Zhui observed the secret patterns of the scales on the golden dragon's body at the foot of the statue, and gradually became immersed in it.
"The law of time is simply mysterious and perfect."
"Being able to remain still forever, compared to the surrounding world, being immortal and immortal, this law of time is completely beyond imagination..." Shen Zhui sighed with emotion.
The Golden Dragon can be regarded as the true god of time. It naturally controls the law of time, and in this way, it can only be sealed with the help of the power of the Human Emperor. It has been guarding for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years without change... How difficult is this?
The methods used, even if it is just a superficial understanding of Taoism, will be used for a lifetime.
Unknowingly, Shen Zhui felt that the scales in front of him became blurry, like a whirlpool, and became unreal.
Shen Zhui subconsciously moved closer, wanting to see it more clearly.
However, he found that his whole body was extremely tired and his movements were extremely slow. In his mind, the Bloodborne Divine Armor and the Nine Nether Soul Sword were emitting dangerous light, seeming to warn Shen Zhui. However, Shen Zhui, who was immersed in the law of time, was completely Didn't notice this.
Subconsciously opening the merit barrier, Shen Zhui took a step forward.
The scales were clear, the law seal and the bottom of his heart, a flash of light flashed, just when Shen Zhui wanted to continue...
"Bang~" A huge rebound force bounced Shen Zhui back, and he suddenly woke up. Shen Zhui found that one of his feet had actually been retracted from the statue.
Lu Yuanwei and Yang Ruye looked at Shen Zhui in horror.
"Oops, I almost fell into the realm of that law." Shen Zhui was also frightened at this moment. However, he was completely in a state of enlightenment just now, completely forgetting himself, so he was not aware of the danger at all.
"Are you okay?!" Lu Yuanwei pulled Shen Zhui back, his face a little pale.
"Sir." Tanlang also stared at Shen Zhui nervously.
Only Xia Feihu showed a hint of joy in his eyes.
"I'm fine." Shen Zhui glanced at Yang Ruye. "Senior Yang, I'm sorry."
"Master Hou is really..." Yang Ruye didn't know what to say.
Shen Zhui had just entered the realm of the law of time with both feet.
Although this is nothing, even the True God cannot escape from the realm of the law of time, and it is impossible to leave.
But Shen Zhui not only went in and came out again, but he also acted like a normal person, which shocked him beyond measure.
at this time--
"Ang~" Suddenly a faint sound of dragon roar sounded, and as this sound sounded.
The entire land where the Law of Time domain is located trembled slightly.
The golden dragon's head actually deviated slightly to the right, but upon closer inspection, it seemed that nothing had changed.
"What's going on?" Yang Ruye was startled. He glanced at Shen Zhui suspiciously and then looked into the field. "Did some restriction be triggered?"
"I don't know." Shen Zhui also looked over in confusion. "Does this happen often?"
"Unheard of." Yang Ruye seemed to have thought of something and cupped his hands towards Shen Zhui. "Everyone, I'll excuse you for a moment."
After that, he ignored Shen Zhui and others and left in a hurry, leaving Shen Zhui and Lu Yuanwei looking at each other in confusion.
"Sir, don't worry." Greedy Wolf said. "I'm afraid it's some kind of hallucination or a ban triggering mechanism."
"If you, a venerable sir, could destroy the restrictions set by the emperor, I'm afraid they would have been destroyed long ago after so many years."
Shen Zhui also nodded, but he was still a little suspicious. Could it be that the dragon roar just now was really because of him?
While they were continuing to meditate under the statue, they were waiting for Yang Ruye to return.
Suddenly, there was a noise on the other side of the statue.
"Come on, Shen Zhui is over here!"
