Emperor Lao Sheng is a tragic figure. He was extremely brilliant when he was young, but failed to break through to the holy realm. Once he fell into the abyss, all his ambitions and ambitions turned into nothing.
And when he was about to die, he had no peace and had to witness the scene of his own flesh and blood killing each other.
Prince Yanyang and Prince Wulie are separated on two sides, one white and one black, one is a sun flare, the other is a sunspot, as if they are destined to be in opposition and must decide whether to live or die.
In the stalemate atmosphere, the old Emperor Sheng finally walked into the main hall slowly with the support of the young and frail little emperor grandson.
Lao Shenghuang was as skinny as a stick, his eyes were cloudy and lifeless, and even the mark of the sun between his eyebrows was as dim as the setting sun;
The little grandson is only six years old, with red lips and white teeth, innocent and full of vitality.
The old man and the young man entered together, which made the old Emperor Sheng look lifeless and on the verge of death.
Behind Emperor Lao Sheng, an old crow followed him like a shadow. It did not transform like other crow generals, but showed its most primitive form.
Its entire body of feathers is as black as ink, as deep as a black hole, but the tail of each feather emits a red-gold flame.
Different from the old Emperor Sheng, although it looks old, its eyes are as sharp as an eagle.
The old patriarch of the Three-Legged Golden Crow Clan, Gu Chen confirmed the identity of the old crow as soon as he saw it.
It is said that this old patriarch was so loyal that he spent all his life guarding the Emperor Sheng. When the Emperor failed to escape the tribulation and was taken advantage of by the enemy, it was also his desperate fight that saved the life of the Emperor Sheng.
.
Lao Shenghuang needed help when walking, as if a gust of wind could blow him down, but Lao Ya's steps were smooth and steady, and he vaguely locked all directions while walking. No matter which direction the enemy attacked from, they could not bypass it and attack Lao Shenghuang.
This combination of an old man, a young man and a crow entered the main hall. Led by Prince Yan Yang and Prince Wu Lie, many monks saluted.
"Everyone is free of charge."
Emperor Lao Sheng waved his hand, his voice was old, hoarse and weak.
His cloudy eyes glanced at the foreign monks present and sighed softly.
"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. I won't say much else. No matter which one of you finally gets the recognition of the ancestral land, I hope you can be worthy of your status."
Emperor Lao Sheng patted the young emperor's grandson on the shoulder and said sincerely.
The little emperor's grandson immediately understood what he meant and carefully helped him turn around.
"Let's go to the entrance of the ancestral land."
Lao Sheng Huang said, he did not intend to listen to the two princes' words, and seemed quite uninterested.
His words and deeds fell into the eyes of everyone, but they were perfectly normal.
How could the old Emperor Sheng not be aware that the battle between Prince Yanyang and Prince Wulie had spread from the Shengyang realm to the Seven Kingdoms region? However, even if he knew about it, he would not be able to interfere because he was already old.
As a father, he is disappointed, and as an emperor, he has also lost control of the situation. It is not surprising at all to feel like this.
The two princes didn't care about the disappointment in their old father's words. At this time, Prince Yanyang and Wu Lie were both ambitious and wanted to kill each other immediately to ascend to the throne.
Emperor Lao Sheng slowly led the way, and two teams followed behind. Patrolling crow generals could be seen around at any time.
The palace wall of Shenghuang Palace is very tall and wide. There are grooves at regular intervals on the wall. There are crows standing guard in the grooves, which look like lights.
The towering palace walls and the crow generals' five-step, ten-step and one-post sentry make the defense of Shenghuang Palace watertight, making it difficult for even a fly to invade here.
Under the guidance of Lao Shenghuang, the two teams quickly passed through the mechanism and entered an underground palace.
The ancient stone stairs in this underground palace extend continuously downward, and at the bottom is a huge luminous magic circle.
There is lava flowing on the surface of every line in the magic circle. At a glance, it seems that there are countless dragons flying in the magic circle, which is spectacular!
The temperature rises significantly after entering the underground palace. When walking down the stone steps and arriving at the outside of the huge magic circle, it feels even more like being in a desert.
"The place where the Lieyang Tribe and the Three-legged Golden Crow Tribe were born must have an extremely hot environment, which is not good for us."
The Clay Bodhisattva looked at the magic circle and quietly said to Gu Chen.
The most suitable environment for him is undoubtedly a swamp, and although the ancestral land of the Lieyang Clan has not been entered yet, it can be imagined that it must be a place lacking water.
As a result, his advantage of being able to swamp will be greatly weakened, and it will be even more difficult to escape once he encounters a crisis.
"As long as you come, let's take care of it. Except for the two princes, no one else has any advantage." Gu Chen said calmly.
Mud Bodhisattva could only nod, hoping that the situation in the ancestral land would be better than he imagined.
When they arrived at their destination, Emperor Sheng let go of the hand held by his grandson, took a few steps forward, and began to mutter something.
As his spell came out, the light in the huge magic circle in front began to surge, and countless rays of Dao lines melted from the ground and slowly met in the air, slowly forming two light gates.
Boom! Boom!
The two light doors opened at the same time, blowing out a strong flow of heat from inside. The world inside seemed to be distorted by the high temperature, making it difficult to see the specific situation.
"Okay, the ancestral land has been opened. Now you can enter through different light doors."
"The two light doors are the same. They will randomly transport you to different areas of the ancestral land to prevent you from killing each other in the first place."
"I said before that only those who are recognized by the ancestral land can inherit the throne. I didn't explain it clearly before. Let me explain it now."
"When you enter the ancestral land, the light gate will disappear on its own, and the test will last for ten days. After ten days, the light gate will open again. At that time, whoever brings back more sun soul from the ancestral land will inherit it.
The throne."
After Emperor Lao Sheng slowly explained the rules of the test, Yan Yang and Wu Lie's eyes shone brightly at the same time.
They all know what the true soul of the sun is. It is a great tonic for the Lieyang tribe and the Three-legged Golden Crow tribe, and it has always been abundant in the ancestral land.
However, in history, the number of Sun Spirits in the ancestral land has become very rare due to excessive mining.
In addition, the environment in the ancestral land has become very bad and may even endanger the lives of the Lieyang people, so the ancestral land is sealed.
When restarting the ancestral land this time, the two princes had already guessed the possible content of the test, and the task of finding the true soul of the sun was not unexpected.
"Brother, which door do you choose?"
Wu Lie looked at Prince Yanyang and asked with twinkling eyes.
"What about you? If you had to choose, which side would you choose?"
Prince Yanyang did not answer, and returned the question to Wu Lie.
"Haha, let's do this. Let's draw lots and decide, so we don't have to doubt each other."
Wu Lie sneered, knowing that the prince, like him, was unwilling to let the other party choose first.
The reason is very simple. Both of them have concerns. They are worried that their father has already been secretly biased. If the other party chooses first, the area teleported by the light gate will have an advantage.
"Okay, that's very good."
Prince Yanyang had no objection, which reassured Wu Lie a lot.
So the two drew lots, and the method adopted was very fair. In the end, Wu Lie was assigned to the light gate on the left, and Prince Yanyang was assigned to the right.
Lao Shenghuang watched this scene between the two of them from beginning to end, but he was extremely calm and didn't say much.
Gu Chen's eyes were mostly on Lao Shenghuang. Seeing him acting like this, he frowned slightly, thoughtfully.
Without giving him much time to think, he chose the entrance and the two teams entered separately.
Swish swish swish.
One after another figures walked into the light gate one after another, including Gu Chen, Ni Bodhisattva, Sang Yan and Ming Shou!
When everyone entered, the Gate of Light collapsed on the spot, but Emperor Lao Sheng had no intention of leaving and found a place to sit on the edge of the circle.
He sat cross-legged in meditation and closed his eyes, like an old monk in meditation.
Lao Ya silently guarded the old Emperor Sheng, and the light in the underground palace gradually dimmed. He looked at the emperor who had long lost his vitality, with complex eyes surging.
