That's What Villains Are Like

This astonishing scene attracted everyone's attention.

The many masters of the Blood Immortal Cult who were absconding were even more timid and frightened, and they fled without any hesitation, without even a trace of hesitation.

"I didn't expect that this battle would actually allow Emperor Xia to enter that realm in advance, and it would actually help her..."

"We have been practicing hard for many years and have not made any progress. We have been trapped here, but she, a little girl, came from behind and was promoted one step ahead of me."

"I'm really not willing to give in."

"Huh, it's just relying on the national destiny of Daxia. It's an external thing and has no foundation. If that duckweed, once Daxia collapses, all her cultivation will be wasted in the east and turned into running water."

The three beings who were fighting against Emperor Xia in the Hall of Eternal Life, who were about to enter the Bridge Tribulation Realm, reluctantly stopped for a moment, then turned into blood shadows, performed secret techniques, and disappeared into the void.

If Emperor Xia waits for An Ran to break through and successfully enter the Eighth Realm, then they will definitely be liquidated as soon as possible.

The Seventh Realm and the Eighth Realm can be said to be one piece of sky and one piece of earth. They are not on the same level at all.

Eighth realm monks are in line with the Tao. In ancient times, they were even called the Tao realm.

The previous seven realms are collectively called the mortal realm. The physical body is still in the mortal stage of the physical body and has never touched the threshold of the Tao.

If a monk in the eighth realm wants to kill a monk in the seventh realm, it is very easy. Even if the physical body is destroyed, the soul can be resurrected.

As for the idea of ​​preventing Emperor Xia from breaking through, they had no idea at all.

Such a big movement has already alarmed the old antiques in the imperial capital. Only those who have a real brain problem would do such reckless things.

What's more, the Blood Immortal Sect's goal has been achieved. As long as the secret formation is activated, it can erode the national weapons of Daxia. Then all parts of Daxia will inevitably fall into chaos.

"However, from now on, there will be no more Xia Emperor in Daxia. Since she dares to reveal her daughter's body, she will face unprecedented pressure."

"hehe……"

Gazes full of surprise and shock looked from the mansions and pavilions into the depths of the palace.

In another area of ​​​​the area, there are many pavilions, palaces, carved railings and jade inlays, row after row.

Deep in it, the sacred mountain of the cave hangs high, the silver waterfall falls, the essence is so rich that it almost liquefies, and some ancient relics can even be seen.

At this moment, in several of the quiet rooms, there were several old men with dragon aura around them. They opened their eyes at the same time and looked towards the palace.

"Xia Junxi is going to break through?"

"It's really beyond our expectations."

"The Huangji World-Suppressing Sutra she practiced has always been missing the second half. Without the teachings of the clan, she would have been searching hard without any clues or whereabouts. Now she actually relied on the national destiny to break through that Layers of shackles..."

"Perhaps there is something weird in the national artifacts. The original Huangji Zhenshi Jing, Huangji Sheji Jing, Huangji Common People Jing... were all evolved and born from them. She may have accidentally touched the secrets within them."

The patterns on the robes of these old men are a bit old, and their eyes are very vicissitudes of life, as if they have experienced countless mortal pasts, and are full of lead.

At this moment, looking at the brilliant scene there where the divine light was shining, covering all directions, their eyes were cold and their expressions were ugly.

The Zongren Mansion has a transcendent status, but it has no right to interfere with the court. After all, the royal family has strict rules. In addition to the Zongren Mansion, Hulong Mountain has always been hidden in secret.

However, as long as the country is not overthrown and the country is on the verge of destruction, Hulongshan will generally not appear in the world.

However, since Emperor Xia came to power, he has been reducing the salary resources of the clan government and feeding them back into the national treasury to build Tenglong Academy, train talents, prepare the army, expand the military strength, defend the borders, subsidize natural and man-made disasters, etc.

The Zongren Mansion has always been a place where the older generation of the royal family can cultivate and retire, and where the royal disciples can be cultivated.

It is precisely because of this that countless resources are transported to it every year.

To put it bluntly, the wealth and resources of any elder in the sect's mansion exceed those of those thousand-year-old aristocratic families.

The clan government will take away at least half of the resources sent to the treasury every year.

In the first year when Emperor Xia came to power, the clan government saw that he was young, so they plundered resources wantonly and reached into the treasury. Emperor Xia also had a cruel temper and issued an edict directly in front of the ministers. Reduce the resources of the Zongren Mansion, and break up with the Zongren Mansion for this reason.

This matter was not a secret in the imperial capital, and was secretly applauded and praised by many ministers in private.

"What does Jiang Lintian mean by this? He actually helped Xia Junxi during this southern hunting exercise?"

"We gave him a lot of good things in those years. Could it be that he has already reached a deal with Emperor Xia in private? He is really a profit-seeking guy."

In the sect's mansion, many sect elders had already learned about what happened in the Qianyuan Cave Realm. Their faces were gloomy and their eyes were all looking towards the depths of the palace.

The entire palace was shrouded in endless dragon energy and misty, and Emperor Xia stood there, with flying black hair, billowing dragon robes, and countless Xia Rui divine rays shrouding her, making her look like an incomparable figure. Goddess.

This was not her clone. The moment the majestic dragon energy surged into her body, she became one with her true body. Otherwise, with the power of her clone, she would not be able to hit the threshold of the Eight Realms Bridge Tribulation Realm.

At this moment, blessed by the inexplicable power in the Zhenlong Seal, the entire imperial capital seemed to have turned into her body. Her gaze spread to every corner. This kind of general trend of heaven and earth was rolling like a river, majestic and boundless, and it was impossible to describe it in words. describe.

She has truly become the master of the imperial capital, possessing indescribable and mighty imperial power, which is completely incomparable to what she had before.

If she wanted to suppress the monks in the imperial capital now, she only needed one thought to control the general trend of the world and the fate of the dynasty and suppress them easily.

The majestic Taoist sound resounded deep in the palace, as if ancient ancestors were worshiping.

Emperor Xia's slender figure sat cross-legged there, but her Emperor's Dharma Body was reflected in the sky, and the sacred light was bright, shining in the endless sky.

At this moment, she gave up many of the timid thoughts in the past and showed her body as a woman openly. Once this thought was eliminated, her state of mind finally reached a mellow state.

The spiritual energy in all the acupoints and meridians around her body is boiling and surging, just like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea. It connects the sea of ​​spirit and the sea of ​​consciousness for her, and builds a tribulation bridge with surging golden light and gushing dragon's luck.

Deep in the sky, thunder and lightning are surging, dark clouds are accumulating, and the calamity clouds from ancient times have reappeared, covering hundreds of miles in radius. There is an aura of destruction circulating, and it will fall down at any time.

From a distance, it looked as if there was a black dragon swimming among them, eyeing it eagerly, intending to kill it.

Under such a vast aura, everyone felt a sense of oppression. If any creature faced such a mighty power, it would be as weak as an ant.

The entire imperial capital was shrouded in the aura of heavenly calamity at this moment, and many of the older generations who had not yet appeared appeared, full of trembling and shock.

"This is the catastrophe of breaking through the bridge robber realm..."

"By breaking into the Robbery Bridge, you can touch the great avenue of heaven and earth. In ancient times, many incredible scenes will evolve to block it."

"As the lord of Great Xia, Emperor Xia has been granted imperial power by heaven, and the disaster she has to face at this moment is even more shocking."

"I am Emperor Xia..."

Faced with such a disaster, Emperor Xia spoke, his voice majestic and cold, resounding throughout the world and resounding in every corner of the imperial capital.

Countless monks and creatures prostrated themselves, full of piety and respect.

At the same time, in the depths of the palace, the Zhenlong Seal was rising and rising, becoming more and more crystal clear. The dragons' fortunes converged and poured into it. Then, as if they had been tempered and condensed, they intertwined towards Emperor Xia's head. The sunlight was like a tide, completely submerging her. .

Her breath continued to rise, until an infinite and vast vision emerged behind her, squeezing the sky.

One after another, simple and bright decrees appeared from the void, accompanied by majestic divine voices, as if the ancient emperor was announcing his abdication and passing the throne to her. The imperial power was divinely authorized, and the way of heaven manifested and resonated.

Vaguely, countless people heard the majestic sound. The ancient emperor really appeared and resonated with the heaven and earth.

"Long live Emperor Xia, long live, long live."

In the imperial capital, countless people knelt down and worshiped.

Emperor Xia's brows were bright and his cheekbones were glowing. There was a shadow of a bridge emerging there. It was crystal clear, as if it were made of fairy jade. It disappeared in the void and connected to the spiritual sea. The boundless golden spiritual energy rolled around. It made a roaring sound like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

"retreat……"

Her eyes were bright, Tian Xian was in her mouth, and she faced the thunder.

At this moment, countless eyes looked from all over the imperial capital. In the rolling clouds of calamity, there was lightning and thunder, and a lifelike shadow of a black dragon emerged. It was densely lit, opened its fangs and big mouth, and let out a thundering dragon roar, moving toward Emperor Xia. Cull down.

…

"This matter actually helped Emperor Xia, allowing her to be promoted to the Bridge Robbery Realm..."

"Sure enough, she is a symbol of the emperor who is favored by heaven. These hardships have actually contributed to her mellow state of mind."

The shocking changes that occurred in the imperial capital were naturally not hidden from Jiang Lan who was in the Qianyuan Cave. He was sitting cross-legged in the bloody altar and was controlling the Blood Immortal Sect's Ten Thousand Transformations Blood Formation.

He opened his eyes and frowned slightly.

The appearance of the phantom of the Barbarian God attracted everyone's attention. At this moment, the battle there was fierce and the turmoil was astonishing. The entire Qianyuan Cave seemed to be torn apart.

Naturally, he didn't have much thought to care about these things, but the movement in the imperial capital came faintly through the turbid blood of the Blood Immortal on the Zhenlong Seal, so he had to divert some of his attention there.

The turbid blood used by the Blood Immortal Sect to corrode the Dragon-Suppressing Seal had already been re-refined by him using the inheritance of the Blood Immortal Sect.

At this moment, he could completely use that part of the movement to pay attention to the situation deep in the palace.

On the Zhenlong Seal, divine light lingers, crystal clear and bright, like jade, and there is an astonishing eye-scorching high temperature permeating the surface, and even the void seems to be blurred.

The spirituality in it is about to transform into a dragon, and now a hazy will is born. When it senses danger, it tries to expel and refine the turbid blood of the Blood Fairy that has corroded it.

The mellowness and unity of Xia Huang's state of mind did not actually enable her to directly break through to the bridge-robbing realm.

A large part of the reason is that the hazy will in Zhenlong Seal sensed the danger and had to choose to recognize her, so that she could be infused with huge dragon energy. Then, with the help of the general trend of the world, she absorbed the infinite Tao Yun and built the Tribulation Bridge in one fell swoop.

Without the Blood Immortal Sect's conspiracy, she doesn't know how long it will take to break through the bridge robbery realm...

"If Emperor Xia succeeds in breaking through the Bridge Tribulation Realm, it will not be difficult to use her methods to cleanse and refine the turbid blood of the Blood Immortal on the Dragon-Suppressing Seal..."

"In this case, wouldn't all my previous plans be in vain?"

Jiang Lan frowned. His original plan was to let the situation develop and not intervene too much.

But now that something unexpected happened, he had to start thinking of other means.

If Emperor Xia successfully breaks through the Bridge Robbery Realm and controls the Dragon-Suppressing Seal, he will become even more powerful, which will not be easy for him to control.

At least for now, Emperor Xia cannot be allowed to control the Dragon-Suppressing Seal.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lan's face turned pale, and all his mind and will were immersed in Niwan Palace.

He looked at the crystal clear leaves on the ancient vine, which were like blood-colored emeralds. This was condensed after he received the inheritance of the Blood Immortal Sect, and contained the supreme secret of the Blood Immortal Sect.

When he was refining the turbid blood of the Blood Immortal, he also relied on the magic of this leaf to suppress the strong and ferocious aura in it.

It is not easy to control that bottle of Blood Immortal's turbid blood. Many high-level officials of the Blood Immortal Sect spent a lot of energy and means to fuse and refine such a small bottle.

Just one wisp can easily corrode a Taoist artifact that was born with Tao marks, causing it to lose all spirituality and Tao charm.

If he was close to the palace, he could use many secret techniques to slowly erode and erode the Dragon-Suppressing Seal with the turbid blood. But at this moment, he was too far away, and he could only choose other methods.

Buzz! ! !

As Jiang Lan's whole mind was immersed in the blood-emerald leaf, it suddenly trembled slightly, and a hazy blood-colored mist spewed out around it.

Then, a shadow of a quiet and waveless blood river appeared in front of his eyes. This blood river had no boundaries and spread to no one knows where. There was no ripple at all. It was as silent as if it had been dead for hundreds of millions of years. The home of the dead and a forbidden place for the living.

The supreme secret of the Infinite Blood River Sutra is said to involve the first mass of dirty blood that was born since the beginning of the world.

In the interpretation of later generations, it became a river of blood that can cannibalize countless living beings. In front of this blood river, it is difficult for immortals and gods to cross, and an unknown number of bones fell and were buried in it.

At this moment, Jiang Lan tried to use the shadow of this blood river to influence the Zhenlong Seal deep in the palace.

In the sea of ​​his consciousness, the silent river of blood suddenly rolled up into boundless waves, losing its everlasting silence. One after another, white and terrifying corpses rolled up and down in it.

And in the sky above the Blood River, the phantoms of gods and Buddhas could be seen all over the sky, wrapped in a terrifying blood light, and falling down in unison.

This scene is very terrifying. The terrifying gnawing force swallows up the void, and then turns into a vague black cross crack there, spreading in all directions.

As Jiang Lan's consciousness deepened, the black crack continued to expand, and then turned into a vague black portal, deep, dead, and cold, and it was unknown where it connected to...

"The river of blood is boundless, swallowing up the heaven and the earth..."

Jiang Lan's complexion turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye, but his eyes were calm and his expression did not change.

The mysterious ancient vine began to tremble with the arrival of his thoughts, and dragon energy seemed to begin to linger on one of the leaves...

The bloody altar where he was sitting cross-legged made a slight crackling sound as he moved now, and cracks began to appear.

The many rich bloody glows in the Qianyuan Cave began to riot and boil uncontrollably, as if being swept by an invisible terrifying storm, affecting all directions.

The people who were fighting were extremely shocked, but they didn't know the reason. They could only guess whether the Blood Immortal Cult was engaged in another conspiracy.

Boom! ! !

The phantom of the Barbarian God stands tall in the sky, using Ugan Ya's body as a container, and carries a terrifying aura of destruction in every move.

Unfortunately, facing many strong men in Daxia and the elders of the Immortal Sect who took action, they gradually became exhausted. Losing the connection channel to different time and space meant losing the source of power.

The many masters of the barbarians who came here through the cave-sky vessels were gradually surrounded and executed one after another during the battle.

The situation is over, and many strong men of the Blood Immortal Sect have also received the message, planning to break through this space and evacuate.

"Die to me..."

"Everyone should stay here to be buried."

At this time, the phantom of the Barbarian God seemed to feel something, and his eyes widened in anger.

He let out a terrifying roar, and his body expanded several times again. Every muscle in his body was like a mountain and a pile of flesh and blood, which looked extremely terrifying.

The next moment, his physical body shrank sharply, as if it was about to shrink and collapse. In just an instant, it went from being thousands of feet tall to as big as a fist.

The fist was not big, but it contained endless energy. In his earth-shattering roar, it suddenly exploded and erupted into billions of rays of black light. The black light was astonishingly dazzling, like a black fallen sun. Falling from the sky, expelling light and bringing endless darkness.

In the midst of this horrific drama, all the practitioners and creatures in the Qianyuan Cave were horrified to the extreme.

All the light in front of him was covered for the first time and became as dark as ink. Including his spiritual consciousness, he seemed to be blind and could not feel anything.

The area close to Ugan Ya was evaporated immediately, turned into powder, and was annihilated silently.

Then the scope expanded, spreading towards the surroundings at a terrifying speed, just as he roared at the end, he wanted to bury all the creatures in the Qianyuan Cave World with him.

The power brought by the self-destruction of the phantom of the Barbarian God is terrifying and unimaginable.

The world of Qianyuan Cave immediately became like torn paper, the void rumbled, and it was shaped like a dead leaf in the huge waves, constantly twisting and breaking.

Fortunately, the formations engraved in the void instantly revived and emitted immeasurable light. One after another, the runes contained different true meanings. It seemed that the birth of thousands of races and the alternation of hundreds of scenes in the world were constantly eliminating and counteracting the evil forces. Horrible impact.

Many ministers and immortal sect elders quickly evacuated with a group of disciples and young tribesmen when they realized something was wrong.

Jiang Lintian's face was calm, his broad sleeves were rolled up, and many of the ministers and disciples of the Xiangguo Mansion beside him were taken away by him, and they were far away at the moment when the Qianyuan Cave world exploded.

"Xiangguo..."

"Master, he..."

Many people looked at the space that had exploded into tatters and almost nothing could be seen. They were frightened with palpitations, but they were also very worried.

Jiang Lintian's eyes were deep and he shook his head and said, "Lan'er does not lack life-saving things. At most, he will be slightly injured, but it will not be fatal."

"Inside the Qianyuan Cave Realm, there are many formations laid out by masters of formations, which can offset many of the aftermath. When the storm subsides, we can send people to find him..."

After noticing the intention of the Barbarian God's shadow just now, he planned to search for Jiang Lan's whereabouts and take him out of the Qianyuan Cave.

But then he remembered what Jiang Lan had said to him before. In the Qianyuan Cave world, no matter what happened, just ignore him and just act according to the plan that the two of them had agreed upon before.

Therefore, Jiang Lintian resisted this idea and just brought out the worshipers around him.

The Qianyuan Cave world exploded, and the aftermath was still terrifying. The explosion of raging energy was like a star exploding, sweeping in all directions like a hurricane.

In the open space at the back of the mountain outside the imperial capital, the ancient trees in the mountains with a radius of thousands of miles all collapsed and broken, and many figures fell from them, covered in blood.

Fortunately, the Qianyuan Cave World is just a secret treasure, not a real small world.

If it were a real small world that self-destructed, that kind of power would be enough to flatten millions of miles around. Most of the energy would have been offset by the many formations engraved inside the Qianyuan Cave.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky, accompanied by the remains and fragments of some broken weapons, flying everywhere. Those who fled the Qianyuan Cave Realm for the first time were filled with heart palpitations and fear.

"I don't know how long this barbarian tribe has been preparing for this sacrifice."

"However, this can be regarded as a demonstration. I don't know how the barbarians will respond when Emperor Xia goes south to hunt."

"This move has already made Daxia furious..."

Many immortal sect elders were only affected by some of the aftermath and were not seriously affected.

They were all human spirits and could not risk their lives for the Great Xia Dynasty. They evacuated as soon as they realized something was wrong.

Even the civil servants are protected by experts.

The self-destruction of the phantom of the Barbarian God only left them disgraced and embarrassed for a while, but did not cause any substantial damage.

But at this moment, everyone's expressions were very ugly, and many generals wished they could immediately lead their armies to the hinterland of the barbarians and massacre them all.

This move by the barbarians can definitely be regarded as a provocation to Daxia.

"Seal the void, guard all directions, and strictly prohibit anyone from leaving this area."

At that moment, the generals began to give orders. Groups of troops had already been stationed outside the imperial capital. After receiving the order, they quickly arrived.

At the same time, the war bunkers hanging high in the void slowly advanced, blocking the surrounding retreat routes.

And just when the Qianyuan Cave Realm self-destructed and a huge impact broke out.

The terrifying cloud of calamity that shrouded the sky deep in the palace also slowly dissipated.

Emperor Xia's skin is crystal clear and white, and his jade body is slender. His green silk hair hangs down to his shoulders. His exquisite and convex figure is covered by a wide dragon robe, and a hazy light surrounds him.

She stood tall.

The endless sprays of dragon energy merged together, turning into solid, lifelike dragons one after another around her, circling around her, holding their heads high and chanting.

At this moment, she was carrying great majesty, and her eyes swept across her, like an emperor patrolling around. No matter who he was, his heart would tremble, and he would be greatly oppressed.

"Breaking through the bridge robbery realm..."

She felt the clear rhythm of Tao between heaven and earth, and had a new understanding of the nature of everything in the world and all living beings.

She is different now.

As her eyes swept across various areas, even in the sect's mansion, several sect elders who had been very disrespectful to her in the past could only snort and look away, not daring to look at her.

As for the people who were kneeling down and worshiping in the imperial capital at this moment, they were even more numerous.

Of course, more people were surprised and shocked by Emperor Xia's identity at this moment.

This is the first time that she has appeared as a woman in front of people, openly and without any cover-up. In the past, there were rumors in the imperial capital that Emperor Xia was actually a woman, which caused people to discuss, but it disappeared not long after, and was People cover up.

But this summer when the emperor came to the palace and overlooked all directions, it was considered that the previous rumors and speculations were confirmed.

This caused a huge sensation, no less than when she had just overcome the tribulation and broken through the eighth realm.

Emperor Xia closed his eyes gently, and his figure disappeared from the palace. She appeared in the Palace of Eternal Life, looking at the empty high platform in the depths, her face was calm, but her eyes were cold.

"Do you still have any backup plans? I really underestimated you."

She looked at the disappeared national weapon, the Zhenlong Seal, and her jade hands creaked as she squeezed it.

In fact, when she was going through the tribulation just now, she could faintly feel the strange movement coming from the Zhenlong Seal.

It's a pity that at the critical moment of overcoming the tribulation, there is no time to care about other things, and there is no extra thought to care about the situation here.

At that time, she had some vague guesses...

Looking at it now, it turned out that the Zhenlong Seal had indeed been taken away by the Blood Immortal Cult through some secret method unknown to her.

"It must be the cause of the dirty blood. Otherwise, deep in the palace, there are many restrictions and there are many formations carved on it. How could the Dragon-Suppressing Seal be taken away silently?"

Emperor Xia stood quietly in the Hall of Eternal Life with an expressionless face.

Then her robe was rolled up, and any traces and breath left on this place completely disappeared. Now, except for her, no one knew about the loss of the national artifact.

After she broke through the Eight Bridges Tribulation Realm, the outside world thought it was caused by national weapons and dragon luck.

Now that she has broken up with the Zongren Mansion, there is no need for her to worry about those pedantic rules. As long as she doesn't tell anyone, no one will know about the loss of the national weapon, and the elders of the Zongren Mansion will also think that she carries the national weapon with her. body.

The only thing she needs to worry about is that the Blood Immortal Sect will make a big fuss about this matter.

Soon, Emperor Xia's figure left the Palace of Eternal Life and appeared in the main hall of the palace.

Many ministers and generals also came to report the news immediately and were responsible for finishing the follow-up matters. Emperor Xia also knew what happened in the Qianyuan Cave Realm, but now is not the time to settle accounts with the barbarians.

A traitor appeared around her, and the fact that the national weapon was corroded by the dirty blood and taken away made her feel cold, and she needed to vigorously investigate the matter.

Half a day later, many ministers had arrived outside the palace. They all knelt down and kowtowed outside the palace, waiting there anxiously.

Outside the four forbidden halls, soldiers patrolled back and forth, cleaning up the battlefield. Outside the broken Qianyuan Cave, many remnants of the Blood Immortal Cult who had not had time to escape and several barbarian masters were captured and were waiting to be dealt with.

Emperor Xia stood in front of the palace with his hands behind his back, looking down.

Under the service of the maid, she changed into a red and black robe, embroidered with dragon and phoenix sacred beasts with gold thread and thousand-year-old silk, connected head to tail, and her hair was simply pulled up, dressing up like any previous emperor in Daxia. , are completely different.

His heroic aura was also filled with majesty, accompanied by dragon aura, and his gaze was profound. Just a glance at it made many ministers tremble.

Many people feel that the current Emperor Xia is completely different from the past. He exudes the majesty of the emperor from the inside out, every gesture, and cannot be looked directly at.
