Ling Tian's expression changed, and there was a trace of horror and disbelief in his eyes.
Could it be that something unexpected happened and the great cause collapsed halfway before it was accomplished?
You must know that from the perspective of the great elder's demonic power, he is at the ninth level of the spiritual realm. Even because he is guarding this place in the ancient ruins, he is suppressed by some laws. If he could go to the upper realm, he would have been able to cultivate for so many years.
Able to break through realms and reach unimaginable and terrifying forbidden areas.
The strongest shadow monster bred from the shadow of will by the shadow clan leader is only stronger than the great elder. Even in the ancient ruins, it is a top-notch existence. Although it cannot eradicate the power of Huangji City, it can protect itself.
No one can do anything to him, so how can he disappear?
"That's right, the patriarch has disappeared!"
The dark figure of the Great Elder was constantly swaying, and there was a feeling of light and death like the remaining candlelight swinging in the wind. He looked weathered. Naturally, he was worried about this, but he had no one to talk to.
"After the clan leader left a message, he left Dark Moon Hades. We still had some contact for a long time after that. Those clan members possessed some cultivators, performed countless tasks, and also inquired about a lot of information and passed it back. But for some reason,
After a message was sent back to the Shadow Clan, the clan leader and those compatriots disappeared, and there was no news at all!"
"After that, Huangji City moved more and more frequently. According to our speculation, they even mastered the method of breaking through the forbidden formation, using the 'key' with the breath of the Holy Lord and our shadow demon body, and the incarnation of the law
, is the best example of their mastery of key intelligence.”
"With the invasion, the power of the formation faded, and our clansmen who advocated staying behind had to choose to go out and proactively inquire for information, collect divine blood, and replenish the power of the formation. But fortunately, Holy Lord, you came as promised and saved us!"
Ling Tian listened silently and said nothing.
But his mind was spinning very quickly, and he was constantly thinking about the reason for the disappearance of the Shadow Demon Clan Leader.
And there was one thing that aroused his great suspicion.
"After the clan leader disappeared, the Dark Moon Underworld mastered the method of breaking through the forbidden formation? Did someone betray the shadow demon clan and betray the clan leader, or did the clan leader betray the shadow demon clan?"
Ling Tian's question was extremely pointed, but based on the result, the inference was extremely reasonable.
You must know that the secrets of the forbidden formation are only known to the shadow demons, but after the clan leader disappeared, this information was leaked. It would not come out of thin air and let outsiders know. It was always the news revealed by the shadow demon clan members.
"That's right, so some people in the clan suspect that the clan leader has betrayed our clan, but..."
The Great Elder did not go on. As the top leaders of the entire clan, they knew better than anyone how valuable the information passed on by the clan leader after he went out. It even paved the way for them to send people to explore the outside world, so that Ying Lie and others
There is a chance to enter the battle of the king list.
But the voice of the people is that the clan leader defectes. After all, it is easier to imagine that a person is despicable than to believe in a person's greatness. Among the public, no one is willing to believe that the Shadow Clan's outgoing clan leader is opening up a new path and walking in the future.
A hero who carries a heavy load in the dark.
"I understand. When I go out, I will find out the truth of this matter and won't let you suffer any grievances."
Ling Tian said slowly, giving the great elder a reassurance.
"Thank you, Holy Lord, for making it happen!"
The great elder quickly bowed and responded.
Then, he looked at Ling Tian and continued: "When the Holy Lord returns, the authority of this place will also belong to you. From then on, our clan will be completely dispatched by the Holy Lord. Until the secret treasure of the soul-returning formation returns to the demon clan, we will be able to live in this land."
Truly establish a foothold and continue to thrive.”
Ling Tian nodded and said firmly: "Whether it is a demon clan or a human clan, as long as it is what I want to protect, I will never allow others to trample on it!"
He doesn't care about race, he only cares about his own people!
After that, the two left the depths of the Star Vein. There are still many unsolved mysteries about Ling Tian. Now, the most important thing is to obtain the enhanced power of the beast head in the building of Dark Moon Hades, and to seize the remaining Dragon Dao Huang.
The 'key' of breath ensures that no outsider can invade this place.
...
At the same time, outside the Dark Moon Hades.
The invasion of the Dark Moon Hades by the extremely mysterious young man with two eyes was huge and huge for the Shadow Demon Clan, but for the Emperor's Apostle who had been waiting silently for a long time with no results, it was just a small episode.
Since everyone was summoned but no action was taken, after they dispersed, various forces are also stepping up their search for the asterite under the veins.
At this moment, the largest mineral vein in the center has always been the most fertile. It is rich in asterite, which is a hundred times more than the barren mineral veins in the west and north. It is also the place where the most powerful forces in Wuyi Tower are entrenched. Who is in charge?
, it has long been concluded.
But at this moment, a new face appears.
"Where did you come from, you idiot? This land has always been the territory of our Wuxiang Ancient Ruins. Get away as far as you want."
After excavating more than a dozen pieces of asterite, a man with a naturally red face discovered something strange.
At the central mine pit, which has always been clearly defined, dozens of new faces came, sticking their butts out and digging tirelessly for star stones.
Looking at their emblem, they were not the Huangji Apostles from the Four Forbidden Ruins. They were unfamiliar. The red-faced man immediately became furious and felt deeply provoked.
In the distance, they heard the red-faced man shouting fiercely, but everyone just pretended not to hear it and continued digging for star stones in silence.
And these are the monks from Lingshuan Ancient Ruins and Tianyuan Ancient Ruins, with more than thirty people in total.
And the Wuxiang Ancient Ruins only has a team of five people. If it weren't for the support of the Forbidden Ruins behind them, the two ancient ruins with a large number of people would have to go up and teach each other a lesson.
However, the Four Forbidden Ruins have always been non-vegetarians. It is better to do less than to do more. Taking advantage of the large number of people to embolden them, they felt that collecting star stones would avoid causing trouble.
"Are you deaf? I told you to get out, didn't you hear me?"
Seeing that the other party was indifferent, the red-faced man's anger rose in his heart, and his face became even redder, like a ripe shrimp, looking extremely funny.
"Brother, we are all under the command of Huangji City. We collect star stones in this area according to our own abilities. We will not delay your business, so why bother to push each other?"
At this time, a yellow-haired man from Lingshang Ancient Ruins stood up and said softly.
What he said was reasonable and well-founded, but it seemed that the red-faced man had no grace.
"Those who don't have eyes, we have set the rules here a long time ago. In the central mine, only our four forbidden ruins can enter this place. If you dare to sneak here to pick up leaks, I'm afraid it's not that you don't take us seriously, but that you are seeking death.
?”
The red-faced man narrowed his eyes slightly, and a murderous intention swept out, without any politeness.
"No way? Isn't this the place where the capable live? Whoever collects it counts as theirs. The rules have always been like this."
The yellow-haired man shook his head and disagreed with this.
"Then go die!"
The red-faced man's expression darkened, he waved a fist involuntarily and rushed forward.
The target is not the yellow-haired man, but all the monks in front of him!
