Hong Qi once again mentioned the replica of the Immortal-Slaying Sword, but Shenguang XVIII didn't care about it: "It's just a broken spirit. It doesn't matter. Your only plan is to do it now."
To quickly improve one's strength is to fully master the Immortal Slaying Sword..."
"It has been so many years. If your wife is still in control of your Immortal-Slaying Sword, your strength will never improve." Shenguang XVIII said to him.
"But that sword that kills immortals, if I use its sword realm, my cultivation seems to be..."
Before Hong Qi finished speaking, Shen Guang 18th said to him: "The level of slaying with the Immortal Sword has nothing to do with your cultivation. Don't underestimate yourself, and don't be afraid of your potential. It's not just you who sees it.
The ones that arrived.”
"Back then, I chose you to be the city lord of Nanfeng Holy City. In fact, I had already seen that this day would come. I also know that you can definitely do it. Believe in yourself and master the Immortal Killing Sword."
Shenguang XVIII said to him: "The two people I sent will assist you until you fully master the Immortal Killing Sword. Since there are changes in the Bei Wang Hou Mansion, then you can hold the Immortal Killing Sword and start from there.
, kill all the powerful men in the Holy City until they are frightened, and make a name for yourself so that they will not dare to look at you with covetous eyes again."
"Yes, I understand."
Hong Qi was inspired and felt that his whole body was full of strength.
"Go ahead and come back to me if you need anything."
The light curtain slowly disappeared. In the secret room, Hong Qi's face was flushed, and his old face was red. Now he felt that his whole body was full of strength.
"The old city lord believes in me so much..."
Hong Qi murmured to himself, flipping his right hand, and the Immortal Slayer Sword appeared in his palm. This short sword seemed to be only three feet long, with two divine dragons imprinted on the blade.
This is the world-famous Immortal-Slaying Sword, the Immortal-Slaying Sword that once killed immortal gods.
"Since the old city lord believes in me, I can definitely do it. I will completely control this sword from now on..."
"Since the Bei Wang Hou Mansion has different intentions, don't blame me, Hong Qi, for being rude. I, Hong Qi, will use this sword to cut off the heads of the masters from the Bei Wang Hou Mansion as a sacrifice to this sword."
Hong Qi has not been so murderous in many years, because his cultivation level is still an intermediate-level great demon.
And this realm, this cultivation level, is really not enough among the powerful people in Nanfeng Holy City. Almost all the forces in the world have demon-level figures.
There are at least hundreds of demon immortals in the Nanfeng Holy City now, so even if he uses the Immortal Sword a few times, his wife Po'er always controls the sword to kill enemies, and he rarely uses the Immortal Sword.
.
"Old man, everyone in the world says that I, Hong Qi, am a man who relies on his wife and an old guy who only eats soft food..."
Hong Qi stroked the Immortal Killing Sword and lightly slipped his finger on it, accidentally slipping and breaking his finger.
A stream of blood flowed onto the dragon mark on the sword body, and the Immortal Killing Sword immediately sucked in the blood.
"Buzzing..."
Hong Qi seemed to feel that the sword spirit in this sword resonated with him.
"hiss……"
After Hong Qi thought for a while, he squeezed out a smear of blood from his fingers, and the blood seeped into the sword again. At this time, the buzzing sound of the sword spirit in the sword became louder.
"Sure enough, it turns out that the sword spirit inside resonates with my blood..."
Hong Qi looked happy, and without saying a word, he made a big cut on his right arm, squeezed out nearly half of the blood and injected it into the Immortal Killing Sword.
"Buzzing..."
"roar……"
The Immortal Killing Sword suddenly roared loudly, and a long roar came from inside, which seemed to be a bit like the roar of a dragon.
The roar of the dragon stirred up a huge gust of wind throughout the secret room, knocking over all the decorations in the secret room.
"Husband, what's wrong..."
The movement here even frightened several people in the back garden, and they quickly ran over to see what was going on.
Several children were also rushed to the world of Qiankun and were taken care of by maids. I don’t know what happened here.
"It's nothing, you are outside, don't come over..."
In the secret room, Hong Qi felt that his blood was being sucked away by the sword spirit in the sword, but it would not cause any real harm to him.
So he wasn't worried, he just asked them not to come in so as not to be accidentally injured by the sword spirit.
The people outside the house quickly retreated. After nearly half an hour, the movement in the secret room of the inner hall finally stopped, and Hong Qi walked out of it.
"Uh, dad, are you okay?"
Several people came over immediately and saw that Hong Qi's face was glowing red now, and his complexion was not as good as usual.
Po'er also had a big belly and a worried look on his face: "What's wrong? What kind of treasure did you pick up that makes you so happy?"
"Haha, madam, you will never guess what kind of treasure I got..." Hong Qi was indeed in a very good mood.
Po'er said with a smile: "I really can't guess it, so just tell me directly and don't be pretentious..."
"Yes, father, we were outside just now and we seemed to hear the roar of the ancient beast. Did we hear it correctly? What is going on?" Hong Wuyou was also curious.
Ye Feng said: "It should be the dragon's roar..."
"Dragon?"
Hong Wuyou was stunned and said: "Father, what's going on? Why is there a dragon roar..."
"Okay, old guy, stop showing off..."
Po'er stepped forward and pinched him. Hong Qi chuckled, flipped his right hand, and the Immortal Killing Sword appeared in his palm.
"This is"……
The three of them were a little surprised: "This is the Immortal Killing Sword, how did it become like this?"
"Did the dragon's roar just now come from the Immortal Killing Sword?" Hong Wuyou opened his eyes wide and looked at the Immortal Killing Sword.
The Immortal Killing Sword is completely different from before. The dragon pattern on the sword seems to have been activated. The original dragon pattern was concave, but now the dragon patterns on both sides are protruding, and the dragon pattern is still golden, as if
It was two golden dragons that were adsorbed on this immortal-killing sword.
Po'er's eyes lit up and he said, "You're not saying that the sword spirit of this sword was awakened by you, are you?"
"Awaken the sword spirit?"
Hong Wuyou didn't quite understand, but Ye Feng on the side was thoughtful. He seemed to have thought of something.
Hong Qi laughed and said: "Yes, Madam is smart. The dragon spirit in the Immortal Killing Sword has been awakened. The current Immortal Killing Sword is not the same sword as the previous Immortal Killing Sword."
"Oh my god, I never thought there was a dragon spirit as a sword spirit..."
Po'er also exclaimed: "If there is a dragon spirit as the sword spirit, the power of this sword will be greatly increased. Does the dragon roar just issued mean that the dragon spirit inside has recognized you as its master?"
Hong Qi nodded, and Po'er kissed him twice excitedly: "My dear, you did a great job, you are finally proud and proud. With this sword, even the demon fairies will hide away when they see you.
"
"Is it so powerful?" Hong Wuyou looked at the sword. It looked much more powerful now.
But the reason why it feels so powerful is because the dragon patterns on the two-sided sword have now emerged, and it feels like two golden dragons lying on it. Plus, the golden light makes it even more intimidating.
But with this thing, my father, with his cultivation as a middle-level demon god, can suppress those demon immortals and have to go around him?
"Haha, you'er, you don't know something."
Po'er smiled and said: "This is a sword for killing immortals and demons. It can be used to kill masters of immortals and demons. It can kill evil spirits and ghosts at the bottom. This sword can kill immortals and demons. My mother used to use this sword as the main sword, but my mother did not."
I have never been able to identify myself with this sword, unable to integrate its realm of annihilation."
"Now that the sword spirit in it has awakened and recognized your father as its master, the power of this sword will be truly released. Even if your father only has the cultivation level of a mid-level great demon, he can still use this sword.
, at least 50% of the power. Even if it is only 50% of the power, ordinary demons will never dare to resist. This is an immortal sword, a real immortal sword."
Po'er was also a little excited. He put his arms around Hong Qi's waist and said, "Did the old city lord give you some advice?"
"Well, the old city lord has helped me a lot, and he will send two more people over in a few days..."
When Hong Qi mentioned this matter, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Since he, the Northern Prince, wants to be the lord of this city, I will let him take a good look at who can be the lord of this city..."
"Father, what do you mean?"
Hong Wuyou's eyes shone: "Are you going to deal with him, the Prince of the North?"
"Haha, there is no need to touch him yet. Let's wait for his next move. If he is unfaithful and unjust, then father, I will deal with him and make him completely disappear from the Northern Prince's Palace."
"Father is mighty. I've long been unhappy with those guys. They are just a candidate for the king, but they don't take the people of our city lord's palace seriously. Some time ago, they also beat and killed a deacon of our city lord's palace.
My family has long wanted to deal with those arrogant and cold-blooded guys in the north."
Hong Wuyou snorted and sneered.
…
Nanfeng Holy City, Northern Territory, in an ice cave.
It was already late at night. Deep in the ice cave, there was a figure sitting cross-legged in the ice. The surrounding glaciers had frozen him inside.
Outside the ice cave, there are several immortal cultivators who have just come in. They came to get ice.
"Ah, what is this..."
Holding the fluorescent lamp, Hu Qian suddenly screamed and was startled by the figure in the ice.
The fluorescent lamp in my hand almost fell to the ground.
"Junior sister, what's wrong? This is..."
"Be careful, it's okay..."
Three men quickly ran over, holding fluorescent lamps in their hands, and also illuminated the ice in front of them.
I saw the figure in the ice. There was indeed a person sitting in the ice, frozen by the ice.
"It's nothing, just alone..."
A young man in gray robe said: "Junior sister, don't be afraid. In this ice cave, many people freeze to death like this every year..."
"Over time, it has become like this..."
Another young man also smiled and said: "Yes, junior sister, it's nothing. There are not ten thousand people like this who freeze to death, but there are hundreds. We will see you later."
The three senior brothers comforted the junior sister here. This junior sister followed them down to the ice cave to get ice for the first time. It’s not like they are all experienced. In this ice cave, there are such immortal cultivators who freeze to death, and
There are too many other creatures, and many people freeze to death here every year.
But the junior sister didn't say anything. Instead, she looked a little ugly. She pointed at the people inside and said, "Look, he seems to be moving..."
"Moving?"
"How is that possible? Junior sister, did you see it wrong?"
The three senior brothers immediately came forward and took a closer look.
"Oh my god"
"He is really moving. He is still breathing. There seems to be a small space around him and he is breathing."
The three senior brothers were also frightened, and one of them even screamed something like "Oh my God". They were so frightened.
"Senior, I'm sorry, we are just here to get ice, and we have absolutely no intention of disturbing your practice and retreat..."
One of the young men quickly put his hands together and apologized to the people in the ice: "You should hurry up..."
The other three people quickly imitated his example and apologized to the people inside while lying down. After saying this, the four people quickly left the ice cave.
In their opinion, it is normal for people to freeze to death here. When the cold wave comes every year, some people freeze to death inside before they have time to come out. Even the cold wave here comes and goes, and sometimes the weather is quite good, and there are also
A cold wave will appear and freeze a large number of creatures below to death.
But once someone can survive in such an environment and practice here, there is no need to think about it. The other person's cultivation must be very strong and he must be an unparalleled master.
Not long after they left, Ye Chu slowly opened his eyes. The person in the ice was none other than Ye Chu.
"call……"
Ye Chu exhaled and burned a passage through the thick ice in front of him. The place where he was immediately turned into a water curtain hole, and the ice melted into ice water.
Ye Chu slowly walked out, stepped on the ice, shook off the dirt on his body, and felt relaxed.
"I don't know how long it has been..."
This ice cave is not an extremely cold place. Ye Chu came here just to enjoy the autumn breeze and absorb some of the power of the extreme cold. However, he did not expect that something unexpected happened along the way.
As a result, he suddenly entered seclusion here, and was sealed by the ice unknowingly. Even he himself didn't know how long it had been.
If those guys hadn't woken him up just now, he still doesn't know how long he would have stayed here.
Ye Chu looked around the ice cave. There were many small rooms dug out in the ice cave, and some square ice cubes were placed in each small room. This place seemed to be used by them to get ice.
Used because it is summer outside and the weather is unbearable all year round. In a high temperature environment, they need to use a lot of ice cubes.
It would be more troublesome to make ice by yourself. If you practice cold arts, you probably won’t practice in a place like this. You should choose an extremely cold place. Therefore, the cultivators here should send people over from time to time to come down to this place to get ice.
Use on ice.
The internal space of the ice cave is not particularly large, only about the size of ten or eight football fields. Ye Chu walked around inside for several times, but found nothing else.
"Could it be that the strange movement before was just a strange movement in my heart?"
Ye Chu thought for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out what happened and why he entered the retreat.
Even the sense of the five senses from the outside is gone, so it is sealed in the ice, no different from an ice sculpture of a dead person.
Since there was no gain, Ye Chu did not stay here any longer and came out soon.
As soon as I arrived outside, I saw a group of black-robed guards coming over there. These guys were all wearing armor. They should be guards in the army or in the city.
Their cultivation levels are not particularly high, but they are very even. They have all reached about the level of the second or third level of a demon god, which is quite a good level of strength.
There were a total of twelve people in the group. After arriving at the ice cave, someone immediately gave an order: "You two stay on top, and the others will follow me down to the ice cave. Be sure to fill up all the mustard seeds before dark, and leave...
…”
Two people were guarding the top, while the other ten people quickly descended into the ice cave, probably to move ice blocks and pack mustard seeds.
Ye Chu had already used the concealment technique, and these guards could not find him. It happened that Ye Chu had nothing to do, so he scanned their Yuanling and learned the current time.
"Fortunately, it was just sealed down there for three months, not too long."
What made Ye Chu let out a sigh of relief was that he had not been sealed down below for a hundred and eighty years, but only three months had passed.
However, Ye Chu scanned their Yuanlings and learned some other information. It turned out that these guys were the guards of the Beiwanghou Mansion. They came here to move ice cubes for the event in the Beiwang Houfu two days later.
A great event is coming.
In two days, the Northern Prince's Mansion will hold an engagement ceremony. The third princess of the Northern Prince is going to marry the second son of the Southern Prince. The two families are well-matched.
It's just that not many people know about this marriage now. The two of them also happened to have a cousin, Deacon Ren, who happened to be in charge of this matter in the Prince's Palace in the North, so they were informed.
Not only their team was fetching ice here, but also seven other teams, a total of eight small teams of guards, were fetching ice from several ice fields near the Bei Wanghou Mansion.
ice.
These two guys not only knew about this, but also knew about some of the rifts between the Northern Prince's Palace and the Palace of the City Lord of the South Wind Holy City, and now even they knew that the Northern Prince wanted to be the Lord of the South Wind Holy City.
"The Prince of the North still wants to be the city lord?"
There was a lot of other information, and Ye Chu had no time to pay attention to it. However, he was a little unhappy when he learned that the Northern Prince was eyeing the position of the Lord of the South Wind Holy City.
"If you become the city lord, how can my eldest brother and sister-in-law, who are my in-laws and mother-in-law, still mess around?"
"How can we obtain hundreds of billions of spiritual stones every year and a large number of heavenly materials and earthly treasures?"
Ye Chu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and a cold look flashed across his face. The other party was trying to steal the cake from him and Hong Qi.
And this time they are engaged in such an engagement, it is most likely that the Northern Prince wants to form an alliance with the Southern Prince, and may be secretly discussing how to seize the city lord's position. When Ye Chu heard about this, he couldn't ignore it.
.
Beiwanghou City is not far from here, only 800,000 miles away. In less than a few breaths, Ye Chu arrived outside Beiwanghou City.
It can be said that the architectural style of Beiwanghou City is very different from that of Nanfeng Holy City. The city wall here is towering into the clouds. This city wall alone is probably several thousand meters high. It is all made of large bluestones. It is indeed
Very shocking.
Ye Chu has been to many ancient cities, as well as some super big cities. It is really rare for a city wall to be as high as this.
Not only that, there is a large defensive formation outside Beiwanghou City. It is really not easy to forcefully break into Beiwanghou City.
Ye Chu was too lazy to break through and went directly to the city gate. The guard blocked him with a big sword: "You are not a resident of Beiwanghou City. Who are you? Show me your order to enter the city..."
"Entry order?"
Ye Chu had never heard of such a thing. He immediately scanned this guy's Yuanling and immediately knew the relevant things.
But I also know that these guys will usually let them go as long as they collect some spirit stones.
Ye Chu quietly presented ten thousand spirit stones, and the guard immediately put down the sword: "Let's go..."
Normally, if someone wanted to enter the city, they would usually give him 500 to 1,000 spirit stones. This time, someone came and offered 10,000. He was obviously a very rich guy, so they would naturally let him go.
By scanning the guarding Yuanlings, Ye Chu also learned some important information about the city. Ye Chu was not in a hurry to enter the Beiwang Houfu. It is said that the magic circle there is the most powerful during the day and the weakest at midnight.
, if you want to infiltrate, then that’s the best time.
After practicing hard for several years outside, Ye Chu has never had a full meal, and he has been in and out of places with harsh cold and harsh environment. It is rare to come to such a big city, how can Ye Chu not eat?
A meal.
Ye Chu came directly to the Tianxiang Tower here, which is also the favorite place for the dignitaries in the city to come and spend money. Not only are there delicious food, but also the ladies are all beautiful and fragrant. As long as you can afford it,
, you can also bring them into the room at any time and do whatever you want with them.
But Ye Chu came here just to eat and to find out more information.
He refused the lady boss's offer to bring him a girl, and gave her a mustard seed, which contained five million spiritual stones, and said to her: "Madam boss, I want to buy some information from you, you should sell it too, right?"
"
"Buying news?"
The landlady's consciousness immediately penetrated the mustard seeds, and when she saw that there were only five million spiritual stones inside, she couldn't help but feel a little interested.
"Sir, what kind of news do you want to buy? Our store sells everything, people, news, and food. We have everything you want..." the landlady said in a girly tone, pinching her orchid fingers.
Ye Chu smiled: "It was just a deposit. As long as you have the information I want, I will give you another 95 million spiritual stones. How about it?"
"Ninety-five million?"
The landlady's eyes lit up: "Sir, this is the news that I want to buy 100 million spiritual stones. I don't know what the news is. As long as you can afford the money, there is no news that our store cannot find out."
"Haha, it's not any special news."
Ye Chu smiled and said: "I heard that the Southern Prince will be here in two days, and he may marry the Northern Prince. I have admired the Northern Prince for many years and always wanted to marry the Northern Prince.
I'm going to work for you, but I don't have the connections to clear things up. I wonder if the landlady can find out for me where the Prince of the North will appear if he is not in the house..."
"You want Master Hou's whereabouts..."
The landlady smiled and said: "Sir, you don't want to assassinate Mr. Hou, do you? You want such information, but our store will not provide it. We still want to keep the store open for a long time..."
"Haha, didn't I just say that you would accept any business..."
Ye Chu smiled: "What? Are you scared when you hear Master Hou's name?"
"This is not..."
The lady boss picked up the mustard seeds in her hand, thought for a while and said, "If you want Mr. Hou's whereabouts, of course we can get it, but at your price..."
"You make a price..."
Ye Chu looked at her, and the landlady stretched out a finger. Ye Chu said, "Just tell me the number, I don't want to guess..."
"Ten billion..."
The landlady stared at Ye Chu: "As long as you can afford the price, sir, the shop will take over the business..."
"Ten billion?"
Ye Chu raised his eyebrows and said: "Boss Boss, you are so open-minded. You just want to find a chance to get to know Mr. Hou, and you are going to kill me by 10 billion..."
"Haha, the price is not high..."
The landlady said: "As long as you ask about your whereabouts, our store will treat you as someone for assassination. As for whether you want to chat with Mr. Hou about life or do something else, the store doesn't care."
"Haha, this price is a bit high. Let's do it this way. If it can be sold for one billion yuan, how about we just close the deal?" Ye Chu said.
"impossible!"
The landlady refused directly: "One billion is impossible..."
"Then forget it."
Ye Chu smiled lightly and said: "The five million is used as wine money. Give me a few more portions of the best wine and food in your store..."
"OK……"
The landlady was stunned. She didn't expect Ye Chu to refuse so simply. A flash of light flashed in her eyes and she left the box.
