A tall and thin figure suddenly appeared next to Xia Lei. It was Dui Zhuang, the second elder of the Nine Infant Clan. The expansion of ambition and suspicion made the remaining guilt of a few days ago disappear.
Duikang was not stupid at all, but he didn't expect that his most trusted protector would betray him, and he didn't expect that Duikang would dare to attack him. The power in his hands was far inferior to his own.
"I'm very surprised. What benefits did the second elder give you? How can I, the emperor, give you more?" Duikang looked at Xia Lei deeply.
"Wrong, I gave the second elder what he wanted, you are just a stumbling block that is about to be removed." Xia Lei chuckled.
"That's right!"
Dui Kang looked at the clan leader with a ferocious smile, his eyes flashing with blazing light: "Duikang, in what way am I inferior to you? If I hadn't inherited the position of clan leader and wielded magical weapons, my personal cultivation level would not be weaker than yours, nor would my abilities be as good as yours.
Damn. Today, I will ascend to the position of clan leader, and the elder system will also change from this moment, and I will rule the world like the emperor of the four directions!"
Looking at the somewhat crazy second elder, Duikang sighed softly and said: "Since ancient times, there have been countless people vying for the position of clan leader, and success or failure abound. Duikang, you want to be the clan leader too.
It is reasonable. In fact, among the elders and protectors, at least half of them covet the position of the clan leader, but... you should not use Duiji to divert people by conflicts with other forces. Do you know that this will create enemies for your clan?
The great crime of treason?”
Hearing what he said, a trace of hesitation flashed in Dui Qiang's eyes.
Indeed, on the surface, it seemed that he had done nothing to harm Jiuying. He did not agree to surrender at the beginning, but only helped when needed. However, he did not know about Xia Lei's many troubles this time. Now that he knows about them,
If this continues, where will the whole family be placed?
Taking advantage of the fact that the clan was facing enemies from both sides, forcing the palace to seize power would undoubtedly make things worse for the Jiuying clan, which was lacking in military strength.
After all, to seize the throne, it is necessary to kill the previous clan leader, or even purge the former clan leader's die-hard loyalists. In this way, countless masters will fall.
"Duijian, the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. If you don't take action today, how will you survive if the situation calms down?"
Xia Lei's tone became a little more serious, and he stated a fact that must be faced: it is true that there are many people among the elders and protectors who covet the position of the clan leader, but that is only what they think in their hearts, and no one dares to express it. This creates a kind of
A delicate balance. Now that Duikang has made his intentions clear, facing each other with swords and guns is tantamount to seeking power and usurping the throne with real swords and guns. As the patriarch, how can Duikang spare him?
Those who steal the hook will be punished, and those who steal the country will be martyred.
If you retreat at this time, you will definitely die. The melancholy that just rose up in Dui Zhuang immediately disappeared and he sneered: "Since ancient times, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. As for making enemies for our clan, how do you know that it is not an opportunity for our clan to rise?"
?Duikang, stop making unnecessary resistance, seal the sky and lock the earth... formation!"
boom!
The entire city shook violently, the blue sky suddenly became stormy, and the earth shook.
Countless thick electric dragons made piercing sounds in the air, purple-black light illuminated the sky and the earth, and talismans made of strange runes floated on the ground.
Heaven and earth were completely sealed in an instant!
This is the top-level prohibition formation that Xia Lei passed on to Dui Qiang. In the past few days, it was quietly deployed around the imperial city. No one knew about the existence of the formation until it was activated.
Duikang looked heartbroken, sighed and shook his head: "Duikang, although you and I are not brothers, we are of the same blood family. Do you really want to kill me?"
"That's right! You must die. Only if you die can I become the emperor of Jiuying!"
"You make me very sad, really... It's a pity that you have forgotten your own strength. The power you have is too weak."
As soon as he finished speaking, the restrictions hidden on one side of the hall were opened one after another, and groups of Immortal Lords and Immortal Emperors swarmed out, surrounding more than a hundred people present in the blink of an eye.
In order to defend various branches against foreign enemies, almost all the soldiers and horses on the Imperial City's surface were deployed, leaving only a handful of ordinary guards.
Nowadays, the total number of close followers under Dui Kuang, including the personal soldiers of Dui Kui played by Xia Lei, is only a few hundred immortals and less than 10,000 immortal emperors. On the other hand, there are more than a thousand immortals and immortal emperors under the command of the patriarch Duikang.
It has reached an astonishing number of more than 30,000 people. These are the forces he cultivated secretly, and even Duiji, who is a close confidant, knows very little about it.
The patriarch is the patriarch, and he has not become angry until now. Duikang said softly: "This is the time to employ people. There is no one in the imperial city now. If you two swear allegiance and follow me, this matter will be treated as if it never happened."
"Since you dare to usurp the throne in a certain dynasty, how can you only have so few people? Duikang, you are too naive."
As Xia Lei's calm voice sounded, Huangquanzhu's cold light filled the left and right, figures appeared out of thin air, and three thousand immortals appeared on the scene instantly.
These immortals have at least one rank increase, and there are eight masters comparable to Dui Kang. The total number of immortals is four times that of Duikang's men, and their overall strength is nearly ten times greater.
The three thousand immortals are all the elites among the elites, and among them, the late immortals account for 60%!
Xia Lei was guarded by two super-level immortals. He retreated into the distance in a flash, ignoring Duikang's exclamation: "Huang Quan Zhu? You are Xia Lei... you are not dead? I know someone."
Who is behind the scenes? The Blood Moon Emperor... it must be him!"
"I don't know what you are talking about. I just got Xia Lei's treasure accidentally. Don't you even know who I am?"
The magical power of the same source of ice and fire was spitting at his fingertips. It was the unique energy form of the Nine Infants clan. Even if someone could imitate it, it would be impossible to create the exact same appearance, aura, realm, etc., Xia Lei
These words left Duikang speechless.
That’s right!
Duiya has been with him for so many years, and even though he can imitate his tone, movements, and manners through the soul-searching technique, it is impossible to hide his aura in front of him without being discovered, even if the Sifang Emperor comes in person.
Is Xia Lei really dead?
Did he really get this Huang Quan Pearl?
call out……
Xia Lei proved his doubts with his actions. The seven-color divine flower spurted out from the Tianling acupoint, and the void turned into powder.
At first, the Blood Moon Emperor in the Temple of Heaven stated that Xia Lei's treasures were his. However, not long after, the Seven Swords battle with Long Yi reappeared. Although the true situation was buried with Long Yi's death, the divine sword returned to Xia Lei's hand.
Up, the two Immortal Lord teams were still following, as well as Emperor Long Cheng who had received the news of Long Yi's death.
If only one party knows about it, it will naturally keep it a secret as much as possible. Now that it has been known to the three forces, the secret is no longer a secret.
Now this is clearly Dui Ba, the protector of the Nine Infant Clan, who has summoned the Seven Divine Swords. Once his true identity is confirmed as Dui Ba, it means that Xia Lei is indeed dead.
Otherwise, even if the Divine Sword taken away by the Blood Moon Emperor would automatically return to Xia Lei's hands, why would Dui Ga be retained?
Seven different colors filled the world. As Ziwei Xuanxian advanced to the early stage of Immortal Emperor, the most direct effect was that the divine sword seal broke through two layers in a row.
Billions of extremely mysterious runes, less than the size of a needle tip, floated out from the sword body and exploded into nothing. Immediately afterwards, the brilliance on the divine sword surged several times, and just as it reached the aura of the middle-grade Hongmeng Heavenly Weapon, in an instant
Climbed two steps in a row.
Close to the top-grade Hongmeng Heavenly Soldiers!
Advanced high-grade Hongmeng heavenly weapons!
The power of the formation of the seven swords is greatly increased, and the aura after the fusion is suddenly upgraded to the level of the top Hongmeng heavenly weapons!
Long Yi's middle-grade Hongmeng Heavenly Weapon armor also floated outside his body. It was both offensive and defensive, enough to increase his combat effectiveness by more than ten times.
Of course, he just used the divine sword to prove his identity.
If he is identified as Xia Lei, it will be extremely difficult to help Dui Zhuang come to power, because it will be considered as luring the wolf into the house. On the contrary, as the protector of the Nine Infants, he joins forces with Dui Qiang to force him into the palace, even if other elders and protectors know about this kind of infighting.
This is indeed normal. At most, the timing is a little wrong.
The seven divine swords guarded him and shone brightly around him. This guy was just a fake, and once he made a move, his secret would be exposed immediately. After all, the real Dui's cultivation level far exceeded him.
war!
The addition of three thousand elite immortal emperors changed the entire battle situation drastically, and the extra tens of thousands of immortal emperors had almost no effect.
The various fields of power continued to collide head-on. The Immortal Emperor's combat effectiveness was reduced countless times, and he was unable to exert any strength at all.
In the distance, there is a late-stage Immortal Emperor who is a direct descendant of the Nine Infants. His two-level increase makes his actual combat effectiveness comparable to that of an ordinary mid-stage Immortal Emperor.
Just when he teamed up with dozens of Immortal Emperors and used flying swords to attack an early-stage Immortal Lord under Xia Lei, the Immortal Lord suddenly released the power of the domain. The attacks of dozens of Immortal Emperors suddenly stopped, attacking and defending.
, the speed more than doubled, and more different types of domain powers were superimposed, and the combat power of the late Immortal Emperor was instantly suppressed to the level of the early Immortal Emperor.
Peng...
The initial immortal emperor raised a disdainful sneer at the corner of his mouth and easily avoided the attack that was ten times slower. The sword light pierced the eyebrows of eight of the immortal emperors.
The soul is broken and the soul is scattered!
If only dozens of immortal emperors were to deal with him, it would definitely not be so easy, and he might even be defeated.
However, there are too many immortals on site, more than 4,000 people. The power of different fields has a superimposed effect. Being enveloped by multiple fields will reduce the strength to a terrifying level. The immortals themselves have the ability to display fields, so
The effect of the enemy's domain power will be greatly weakened, and the Immortal Emperor without a domain will not be able to survive.
The battle between the massive Immortal Lords caused the tens of thousands of Immortal Emperors to be completely ignored, and more than half of them were wiped out in less than ten breaths, including many extremely talented Jiu Ying clan members.
Duikang's canthus eyes were split open and he was furious. The top-grade Hongmeng Heavenly Weapon Suo Yuan Blade swallowed a strange gray light and slashed at the group of immortals besieging him crazily.
It's a pity that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break through the encirclement.
The person who took over the position of the clan leader was not only blessed with supreme magic weapons, but also had powerful secret techniques that only the clan leader could perform, which increased his combat effectiveness several times. However, the dozen or so immortals who besieged him were all masters among masters without exception.
, among them there are many extremely powerful people who have understood the two levels of increase in the way of heaven.
"Duiqiang! Don't do it all. Do you really want to see this clan perish?!" Duikang, the clan leader, shouted fiercely.
"I am bound to win the position of clan leader. If you had known the current situation and chose to leave, how could there have been this fight?"
Duiqiang sneered again and again, and with a twist of the sword, dozens of immortal emperors were cut into pieces, and three immortal emperors flew back with blood spurting out. At this time, nothing could stop his decision...
