Chapter 192 The Thousand Faces
In the inner city of the palace, a bald man was walking quickly on the road between dozens of huts like a gust of wind. He turned several turns and passed several gardens before finally coming to a huge palace in three steps. [ ]
This is a palace that can be seen from the outside as a glance. The walls and ground made of gold, as well as the two sculptures carved from rubies in front of the door, all reveal a sense of luxury.
However, unlike the main halls of the rich and noble families, there are guards in front of the door, and there is not a team of people, only one person. It was a super strong man who was three meters tall and strong, and his body was as strong as a tiger. His muscles were as hard as steel, which made people feel scared.
He had short hair like a steel needle, with a rough but not ferocious face. He stood in place with barefoots, but he looked like a sculpture, motionless. The long axe in his hand stood in front of him, reflecting dazzling silver light under the reflection of the moonlight, but this light also had a strong coldness at the same time. It was like a cold light that made people feel cold when they heard it.
As soon as the bald guard arrived in front of the man, he suddenly felt a huge pressure coming, as if it was a surging tide that made him almost breathless.
The short-haired strong man looked down slightly at the bald guard who was kneeling on the ground, and did not say anything, but gave the other party a questioning look. The bald guard's body immediately trembled. At the moment, he suddenly felt that as long as he had a slight idea of deceiving, he would be chopped into meat paste by the man in front of him in an instant.
"What's the matter?" After a moment of silence, the strong man with short hair still asked, but his tone was extremely low and cold.
"Report to the master. A young man outside said he wanted to find His Majesty. Can he let him in?" The bald guard replied tremblingly.
He had discussed with Wuqi and the others just now. If he took the liberty to let the other party come in, he would definitely not be able to escape the sanctions of the army. In order to make Wuqi enter the palace more legal, he asked the person the other party was looking for.
But Wuqi didn't know the name of Dou Sheng Ukins. He only knew the title of Dou Sheng, so he directly told the guard that the person he was looking for was Dou Sheng. As soon as this was said, the faces of the two guards turned pale, but in order to save their lives and accept bribes from each other, they took the risk to report.
Wuqi agreed to this suggestion, so he waited carefully outside. He didn't know how strong the strength of the Kingdom of Rosa was, but the most important purpose of his trip was to find the witch pattern stick. [ ] It was just to meet Dou Sheng to fulfill the agreement between the master and the uncle Dou Sheng, so he did not want to cause trouble in the Kingdom of Rosa. Since the other party had agreed to enter, just report it, what's wrong?
The short-haired strong man's eyes narrowed and he glanced coldly on the bald guard's face, as if he was looking for whether the other person's face showed even a moment of guilt. The bald guard's body trembled again by this glance. He felt his whole body tremble, his heartbeat numb, and he was almost so scared that he had peed his pants.
After a while, the short-haired man withdrew his gaze, then turned slightly toward a gold-made door behind him. It was not until this time that the bald guard breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. The short-haired man knocked in front of the door three times, and "dongdongdongdongdong" with the sound of knocking on the door, an extremely thick sound suddenly came from the door.
"What's up?"
"Report to the teacher. There is a young man outside the palace to see you." The short-haired strong man knelt respectfully in front of the door and replied with one knee.
"Young man?" The voice inside the door suddenly stopped, and then he asked with a slight suspicion, and then he continued to ask, "What's his name? Where did he come from? What's the matter with me in the middle of the night?"
The short-haired strong man quickly turned around and looked at the bald guard. The bald guard immediately stepped forward with a few steps forward, knelt behind the short-haired strong man with both knees, and replied respectfully: "Report to Your Majesty. The young man claimed to be Wuqi. He came from a place called Wushan. But he did not say what he wanted to find you."
"Wuqi? Wushan?" The voice inside the door suddenly became a little excited, and he asked anxiously: "How old is he now?"
"Report to Your Majesty. This young man looks almost twelve or thirteen years old in terms of appearance." The bald guard did not dare to neglect, so he hurriedly replied.
Needless to say, the person who has not appeared in the sect for a long time is the symbol of the entire Rosa Kingdom. The strongest man who has reached the peak of the holy realm, is known as Ugins, the fighting saint. However, at this time, his appearance is obviously much older than when Wuqi left Rosa Kingdom a few years ago. This is not because of his regression in strength, or the sudden regression of the functions of the body organs caused by some severe damage.
As long as the cultivator enters the level of the Holy Realm, he will also have immortal life, and at the same time, he will keep time forever at that moment when he enters the Holy Realm. Ugins will now look much older, entirely because of his exhaustion.
Breakthrough, breakthrough. In the past few years since Wuqi left, he has been seeking a way to break through. For someone like him whose strength has reached its peak, he still feels unsatisfied. Although he doesn't know whether he can break through again and reach a new level above the Holy Realm, he has never given up on the idea of making himself stronger.
Unfortunately, several years passed in a flash, and not only did Ugins' strength not improve at all, but he suddenly felt a sense of frustration. This feeling was something he had never experienced since he entered the special realm of human society, a cultivator. Although he had encountered failures many times before he entered the holy realm.
However, after his failures several times before, at least he could vaguely see his strength improving bit by bit. Although the speed of this improvement was as slow as a turtle crawling, Ugins finally relied on his strength to successfully break through the bottlenecks of the layers of cultivators and reached this level of the peak of the Holy Realm.
It can be said that like the sword saint Abel, Ugins has an obsession with cultivating and constantly improving their strength through hard practice. For such people, if they are unable to break through a bottleneck for a long time, they will begin to lose confidence, doubt themselves, and eventually commit suicide.
Ugins naturally would not fall to the level of suicide. He also knew clearly that the peak of the Holy Realm was already the strongest proof of his strength. However, over the years, he has always believed that he could break the rules and allow his strength to break through this impossible obstacle and reach an unprecedented new height. Even if this hope is so slim, he is still trying unswervingly.
He is now very embarrassed, his eyes are dispersed and haggard, which is caused by repeated cruel blows. However, when he heard the name Wuqi, his eyes suddenly became brighter. The name Wuqi is equivalent to the Ancient Scroll in his heart, and the Ancient Scroll is equivalent to the possibility of him being able to surpass his limits again, break through the bottleneck, and realize his wishes.
Ugins' mood suddenly became excited, and even became energetic. But soon, almost just a second later, the joy that couldn't help but appear on his face disappeared without warning. Instead, it was a pair of cold eyes and gloomy expressions.
"Does he have something on him?" Ukins asked with a cold face.
"No." The bald guard replied honestly.
"Are you sure? Didn't you notice it?" Ugins' voice came again sternly, and at the same time, a huge pressure that was irresistible suddenly spread out of the house like a mountain.
The bald strong man was immediately startled by the sudden huge pressure. He hurriedly knelt on the ground honestly and replied in a trembling voice: "No, I'm sure I'm not wrong."
The pressure suddenly stopped, and Ukins' voice became gentle again, "Then what level of his current strength is? Are you stronger?"
"Report to Your Majesty, that young man is stronger than me. But I don't know how strong he is. He should be at least at the level of an intermediate cultivator."
Intermediate cultivator?
Wu Jins frowned, and he shook his head in his heart: Impossible. I know the strength of this kid Wuqi, and his physical fitness is not average. He has only been away from me for a few years, but his strength can reach an intermediate level cultivator? It is absolutely impossible. This kid is not a genius, otherwise he would not have achieved nothing in the swordsman's swordsman's swordsman's Academy for a year. In my year, he would not have been able to break through his strength. However, he is also called Wuqi. Could it be him?
Ugins suddenly thought of a person, he didn't know the name of this person. However, he had a well-known title, Thousand Faces Man.
The Thousand Face Man is a mysterious figure that suddenly appeared in the Rosa Kingdom in recent years. This character is said to be of average strength, but he has just entered the level of a cultivator. However, he acts mysteriously and is elusive and often does some stealing things. The national monitoring system of the Rosa Kingdom is generally extremely strict, and he has never discovered the true face of the Thousand Face Man.
It's very strange to say. This Thousand-Faced Man is very strange. Although the things he stole are very expensive, they never hurt people. Every time, his appearance is like a strong wind, which you can feel, and you can also shoot with a sophisticated camera probe, but you can never really catch him.
The reason for this is precisely because of his famous disguise technique. Legend has it that he has more than a thousand faces, and no one has seen his true appearance. But you can find out from the clues in the past that these were all done by the same person.
But never once saw the images taken by the thief's witnesses and cameras. This has to be said to be a strange thing in the Kingdom of Rosa.
It is precisely because the Thousand Face Man is full of mystery that Ukins thought of him at the first time. However, what gave Ukins a headache was that even a strong man who had reached the peak of the Holy Realm had never been able to catch the Thousand Face Man several times. Every time, he was about to capture the other person, and was shaken, causing the other person's figure to disappear under his nose.
This Thousand Face Man has this skill, speed, and disguise technique that can hide the world. His strength is definitely not just that he has just entered the level of a junior cultivator. He must have concealed his strength. A terrible guy!
"Om! Go and check what the strength of the young man outside the door is." In order to confirm the guess in his heart, Ugins ordered in a deep voice.
