"The legend is indeed true, but not everyone has Emperor Ji's astonishing qualifications, so so far, no one has been able to find the supreme divine secret in the Nine Apertures Divine Stone."
Not to be outdone, one person interjected: "Speaking of which, the founder of the Stone Human Tribe, the Stone Emperor, realized the earth-shattering Stone Heaven Divine Secret just because he obtained the qualification to enter the Nine Apertures Divine Stone thousands of years ago."
"Although it was finally demonstrated that the Stone Emperor's Shitian Divine Art is not the supreme divine art hidden in the Nine-Aperture Divine Stone that is comparable to the Nine-day Divine Art, it is still astonishing to the world, and he single-handedly founded our Stone God clan. I
When our clan was at its peak, we were only one step away from opening up the Kingdom of God..."
Li Kezhou thought to himself: Is it really God's will that as soon as I entered the God Realm, I learned a clue to a divine secret that was comparable to the [Nine Heavens Divine Secret].
He asked again: "What do you mean when you say that the person who assassinated me was related to this eternal opportunity?"
The person being asked glanced at Li Kezhou in confusion, because these questions made him feel that they were a bit mindless, but he did not dare not answer them.
"Young Master! Have you forgotten that the legendary Nine Apertures Divine Stone, known as the Nine Apertures of the Earth, can only allow nine people to enter. The four major divine kingdoms rely on their strong position, and one clan takes one, leaving the remaining five places.
The geniuses of hundreds of tribes will decide in a martial arts debate one month later..."
"Furthermore, it is stipulated that only one person from a clan can participate in the battle. The young master is the number one genius of our Stoneman clan in a hundred years. This quota for the battle is naturally unkind. Some people naturally want to take his place in order to get the chance to fight."
Li Kezhou generally understood.
Although several people spoke cryptically, it clearly showed that the person responsible for the assassination was not from outside, but from within the Stonemen. Judging from the three people's cryptic appearance, it was obvious that that force was very powerful.
Li Kezhou didn't ask any more questions and followed the three of them towards the Stonemen.
About an hour.
The four of them came to a valley.
There are many buildings in the valley. Judging from the size of this tribe, it can accommodate at least 100,000 people.
After returning safely, the three subordinates secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Young Master, let's go see the Great Elder first. He has given instructions before. When I come back, I will take you to see him as soon as possible."
Li Kezhou was noncommittal and nodded slightly.
Regarding his life experience, he had almost figured it out after all the insinuations before.
Although the person he transformed into was the young master of the Stoneman Clan, he did not have much power.
Because his father, the leader of the Stoneman Clan, disappeared after going out a year ago. It was rumored that he had died outside without any trace of his body. Now all matters in the clan, big and small, are controlled by the great elder.
Under the leadership of the three people, Li Kezhou walked towards the tallest building in the valley...
…
"Is what you said true? Did you really succeed?"
An old man with a hooked nose and a sinister face looked at the man in black kneeling on the ground and asked.
"Great Elder, it's absolutely true! According to your instructions, I used the will-o'-the-spirit fire to burn out his soul directly. In at most an hour or three, the three people sent should be back carrying his body." Hei.
The man in clothes said with a smile.
"Hahahaha...Okay! You have lived up to my training. This is what you deserve. Take it..."
The man in black was overjoyed and quickly stood up, taking three steps and two steps at a time, and went to receive the treasure bag handed over by the old man with both hands.
But the moment he took it, the old man suddenly took action and hit him in the chest with his palm.
The man in black looked horrified, and his whole body turned to stone at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a stone statue. The stone statue suddenly shattered and turned into dust on the ground. During the entire process, not a drop of blood was left.
At this time, a young man came out from the hiding place behind.
"My father had foresight and secretly raised a few killers. Otherwise, it would be really hard for us to kill the boy. Those old guys have always rejected us, father and son, and want to help the boy ascend to the position of clan leader as soon as possible.
.”
"It's okay now. The kid's body will be brought here soon. Let's put on another show. Those old ghosts will finally have to admit their father's identity as the patriarch."
The old man smiled lightly: "I didn't want to get rid of this kid so early, but those old guys actually planned to recommend this person to participate in the war of hundreds of tribes, so they can't blame me for taking action earlier."
"Xuan'er! You have hidden your cultivation for more than ten years, and it's time to show off your skills. Hundreds of tribes will fight to win five places. Are you confident?"
"Isn't my father still aware of my strength? In the entire younger generation of the God Realm, except for the four God Sons of the Four Great God Kingdoms, I don't take anyone seriously." The young man showed a proud expression.
"Okay, okay! Hahahahaha..."
"Report..."
A person outside the door interrupted the old man's laughter, drawled, bowed and walked in.
"Great Elder! The three people sent have returned with the young master."
The old man smiled softly: "He is indeed back, let's carry him in!"
"Lift...bring it in?"
The guard was a little confused, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he nodded and bowed and left.
After a while, the door was pushed open, and three people walked in surrounded by one person.
The old and young man, who was about to look at the dead person, twitched his eyelids in shock, showing an expression of astonishment.
"You...why aren't you dead?" the young man shouted.
Li Kezhou looked at the two of them when he came in. When he heard the young man asked in surprise, he raised his eyebrows: "Death? Who told you that I am dead, or do you think I am dead?"
His question brought the two of them back to reality from shock.
The young man smiled a little reluctantly: "Hahaha! Young Master misunderstood, I just...just asked casually! It's good that you are not dead, Young Master is extremely talented, and the clan leader is under the Nine Springs. I will be very happy to know that you have returned safely.
"
"Under the Nine Springs? My father has just been away for a year and has not returned. No one can tell that he is dead. You think he is dead when you open your mouth. Do you know the inside story?"
Li Kezhou quickly entered the role.
The man's face turned brown when he was asked.
"Xuan'er, please step back!"
The old man saw his son speechless and felt a little embarrassed.
The man nodded, turned and left. No one saw that after he turned around, a violent and murderous look flashed in his eyes.
"Just come back. I will take this opportunity to ask your permission for something. You must have heard that the Battle of Hundred Clans will be held soon. In order to compete for the five places to enter the Nine Aperture Divine Stone, there will be hundreds of people.
To participate in the war, our clan is one of the hundreds of clans, and we have to nominate one person to go to Longshan! I hope you will put the overall situation first and give up your qualifications to fight..."
Only now did Li Kezhou realize that the name of the boy he had transformed into was originally called Longshan.
"Give it up? To whom, your son?" Li Kezhou asked calmly.
The murderous look flashed across the old man's eyes.
"How is it possible? I asked you to show your qualifications and let the younger generation of the clan compete fairly. The people we send out must be the strongest. If we send just one person casually, it will be the same as sending a dog.
