Iron chains as thick as his arms bound a young man tightly, unable to move.
The young man’s name is Xu Chen.
The young master of the Xu family.
The number one genius in Qingfeng City.
But that is already a thing of the past.
Now he has become a prisoner.
Life is worse than death.
After half a year of torture, he is now dying.
The eyelids seemed to be extremely heavy, and they could not be opened no matter how hard they were. It took a lot of effort to slowly open them.
"Hiss~"
Xu Chen gasped in pain.
My chest hurts terribly.
The blood in his body seemed to have been drained.
He knew his life was coming to an end.
But he was unwilling to do so.
Not willing to die like this.
There was endless hatred burning in his eyes.
"Crunch~"
The dungeon door slowly opened.
Two figures walked in.
One male and one female.
The man is handsome and the woman is pretty.
However, when Xu Chen saw the two of them, his originally gloomy complexion quickly turned a sickly flush, and his entire face became twisted and ferocious.
"Qin...Tai...Qin...Jing..."
The voice is hoarse and low.
Like a dying beast.
Qin Tai looked at Xu Chen, who had a ferocious look on his face, and said with a proud smile: "Xu Chen, your life is really despicable. It has been half a year, and you are still surviving till now."
"Qin Tai, why? Why do you do this? Ten years ago, your father and your three siblings were hunted down and injured, and fled to Qingfeng City. It was I who took you in! These years, I have treated you as a brother.
, have I ever treated you badly?"
Xu Chen raised his head with difficulty, stared at Qin Tai with red eyes, and asked the question that had been bothering him for half a year.
"brother?"
Qin Tai laughed, "Hahaha, do you think I am a brother? If you really think of me as a brother, why don't you pass the True Fire Art to me? I have begged you three times, and you have refused three times."
Xu Chen said: "The True Fire Technique is my Xu family's clan-controlling technique. Non-direct descendants cannot practice it."
"quibble!"
Xu Tai roared ferociously: "You are reluctant to teach me even Huang-level advanced skills, so you still have the nerve to claim that you treat me as your brother? From the beginning to the end, I am just a dog in your eyes."
"Xu Chen, you are lucky. Others are not as lucky as you. Your old servant is old and has weak blood. He died without even holding on for a month...and your personal guard, a
Months ago, I breathed my last..."
"Qin Tai, I will kill... you, I... kill you..."
Xu Chen's eyes were red, and he struggled like crazy regardless of his injuries.
The chains rattled.
The pretty Qin Jing said calmly: "Xu Chen, you can't die easily before the Gu eggs hatch out of your chest."
Qin Tai sneered and said: "My sister is right, you have to persist until the Gu worm on your chest hatches successfully."
With that said, he walked up to Xu Chen and stared at the latter's chest with burning eyes.
The flesh and blood on Xu Chen's chest had long since rotted, and a beating heart could be vaguely seen, and inside the heart was a black insect egg as big as a thumb.
Black insect eggs are continuously devouring Xu Chen's blood.
"Xu Chen, you are worthy of being the number one genius in Qingfeng City. You are at the seventh level of Qi training, and your blood energy is really powerful. The Gu worm hatched with your heart's blood will be at least the first level peak after birth."
"You are such a good person. Before you died, you hatched a Gu worm with unlimited potential for me. Tell me, how can I thank you?"
Xu Chen had a look of hatred on his face.
I hate myself for being incompetent and unable to protect my loved ones.
I hate myself for being soft-hearted and sheltering a group of ungrateful people.
I hate myself for being blind and trusting the wrong thief.
I hate myself even more for having entered into a marriage contract with that bitch Qin Qingrou.
Qin Qingrou.
The younger sister of Qin Tai and Qin Jing.
His hatred for Qin Qingrou is still greater than that of Qin Tai.
That day, when Qin Wei and his son teamed up with outsiders to attack the Xu family members, he was escorted by the clan elders and was about to break out of the siege when Qin Qingrou suddenly appeared and blocked his way.
Qin Qingrou, who had always been weak, actually showed amazing strength. In Qin Qingrou's hands, he didn't even persist in three moves before he was captured alive and became a prisoner. He became a tool for hatching Gu insects. Life was worse than death.
After Qin Qingrou captured him, she said coldly, "You are too weak and not worthy of being my husband."
Put down these words.
He held a sword to kill other members of the Xu family.
Third Elder, Fifth Elder, Xu Feng, Xu You, Xu Feng...
One clan member after another died under Qin Qingrou's sword.
His tribesmen died tragically one after another, and he fainted from grief. When he woke up, he was imprisoned in a dungeon and never saw Qin Qingrou again.
Qin Tai touched his chin, looked thoughtful, clapped his hands for the last time, and said: "As a thank you, before you die, I will tell you a secret. Your father Xu Zhantian died tragically not at the mouth of a monster a year ago.
Die at the hands of my master."
Xu Chen's eyes widened.
The flames of hatred burned in his eyes.
"Brother, what nonsense are you talking to a dead man?" Qin Jing interrupted Qin Tai.
She stepped forward, looked at it carefully, and said, "It will take three days for the poisonous insects to hatch. Xu Chen, take this pill."
"Don't even think about it!"
Xu Chen recognized at a glance that what Qin Jing was holding was a pill called Burning Pills.
This is a pill that forcibly increases blood energy at the cost of burning life.
Qin Jing was afraid that he would die suddenly, which would lead to failure in hatching the voodoo insects.
"If you don't know how to show appreciation, you have to eat even if you don't want to eat!"
Qin Jing's eyes turned cold, and she forcefully opened Xu Chen's mouth and forced the Burning Pill into it.
After the Burning Pill entered his stomach, Xu Chen felt his stomach was burning, and his whole body instantly became much more energetic.
Qi and blood are also slowly rising.
The heart, which was already failing, seemed to have received a dose of cardiotonic, regaining its 'vitality' and beating more vigorously.
When Qin Jing saw this, the corners of her mouth curved into a beautiful smile.
The burning pill worked.
"Brother, let's go and come back in three days to collect the Gu insects."
Qin Jing and Qin Tai walked out of the dungeon.
Xu Chen's eyes were red.
He stared intently at the backs of the two figures walking out of the dungeon, roaring like wild beasts from his throat.
"Qin Jing, Qin Tai, if I don't die, I will kill your whole family!"
"boom!"
The dungeon door slammed shut.
Xu Chen roared angrily.
again and again.
Venting the qi and blood in the body endlessly.
He would rather vent the energy and blood in his body than give it to Gu worms for free.
I don't know how much time has passed.
Xu Chen finally exhausted his last bit of strength.
Then everything went dark.
Plunged directly into darkness.
In a trance.
He saw a magnificent and mysterious palace.
The great hall floats in the endless void.
It was pitch black all around.
No wind and no sound.
Everything seemed to have stopped.
Only the main hall exudes soft light, like a star in the endless void.
Xu Chen looked intently.
I saw that the entire hall was made of bronze, exuding chaos and surrounded by rules.
What made Xu Chen take a breath was that the bronze hall was covered with scars from swords, guns, swords and halberds. It was unknown what kind of tragic battle it had gone through.
The main hall is even missing a corner, and the cut surface is flat and smooth, as if it had been chopped off by a sharp blade.
"Gudu!"
Xu Chen swallowed.
He took a few steps forward and arrived in front of the main hall. With a creak, the door opened automatically.
Xu Chen took a step back and shouted into the hall: "Is there anyone there?"
There was dead silence in the hall, no one responded.
After shouting several times and getting no response, Xu Chen took a breath and cautiously stepped into the hall.
The moment he entered the hall, Xu Chen's eyes were immediately attracted by the simple statues standing in the hall.
The statue material looks ordinary.
Dusty.
Without any color.
The statue's facial features are shrouded in various colors of rays of light.
Can’t see it clearly!
The statues come in different shapes!
The Sword Emperor holding a divine sword, the demon with three heads and six arms, the emperor wearing an imperial crown...the compassionate Buddha...the divine emperor fighting against heaven and earth...
…
…
When Xu Chen looked at the statue, wisps of spiritual consciousness were released from the statue, communicating silently in mid-air.
"After a hundred thousand years, someone finally entered the Heavenly Emperor's Palace."
"He is actually a mortal, his talent is too poor..."
"He's dying."
"He is dead, and we don't know how many thousands of years we have to wait here."
"Do you really want to watch his spirit dissipate?"
"Whether he dies or not, it has nothing to do with me."
"He doesn't deserve to inherit my legacy."
A spiritual consciousness suddenly said: "I have been trapped here for a hundred thousand years. I have been here for a long time. If you don't save me, I will save you. This is the perfect way to escape."
The bronze hall shook violently.
"Click~"
The demon-like statue cracked!
"boom!"
The huge statue exploded!
A ball of black light rushed towards Xu Chen as fast as lightning.
