That's What Villains Are Like

"Of the ten most restricted areas in the world, at least six or seven restricted areas will send people here this time. On the surface, these restricted areas are all allies and have the same stance."

On the way to the Siji Xifu, Buzhouxian introduced to Jiang Lan the origins and relationships between the major forbidden areas in the world today.

The ten restricted areas are the boundary tomb, the ruins, the burial soil, the Siji Xifu, the Yang Valley, the Yin Yuan, the Buzhou Broken Mountain, the Jiwu Cave, the Yuanji Ridge and the Kunlun Fairy Ruins.

Except for the Kunlun Immortal Ruins, the other nine forbidden areas are all on the side of the heavens. The land they are located in is extremely mysterious, shrouded in a chaotic space-time field that ordinary people cannot see at all. Sometimes there will be no movement for an era. .

Even world lord-level figures must be respectful and careful in front of these restricted areas, and do not dare to be disrespectful in any way.

There are actually quite a few mysterious realms like the Forbidden Zone among the heavens, but just like the ten most powerful worlds, the realms that can stand on their own in the Forbidden Zone have origins and backgrounds that the world cannot even imagine.

Take the Buzhou Broken Mountain as an example. This was the place where the Empress of Heaven once purified the land. In ancient times, it was the Buzhou Mountain that supported the sky. This origin alone is terrifying.

To put it bluntly, if Buzhou Xian insists on hiding in Buzhou Duanshan, no one can hurt her at all. The natural patterns inside Buzhou Duanshan are enough to resist the intrusion of immortal-level beings.

For example, the existences that invaded Buzhou Duanshan last time and fought for the Four Immortals were all the real masters of the restricted area. Their strength was so great that ordinary world masters were not taken seriously by them at all.

Jiang Lan saw the worry in Bu Zhouxian's heart, smiled lightly, and said indifferently, "I know what you mean. Since I choose to go with you, I am naturally not afraid that the owners of these forbidden areas have evil intentions."

Next to him, Jiang Rushian, who was walking side by side with him, also nodded and said, "I have completely controlled the Kunlun Immortal Ruins. If the owner of the restricted area wants to force us to stay, I have the means to leave safely."

Immortal Buzhou shook his head and sighed softly, "I guess the person who attacked you last time outside the All Heavens Palace was the master of Sijixi Palace."

"If it's really him, I will take that thing back myself."

When Jiang Ruxian heard this, a chill flashed through his eyes.

Jiang Lan smiled, stretched out his hand to hold her Rouyi, and said, "You don't need to take action personally. The master of Sijixi Palace will personally hand it over when the time comes."

Jiang Ruxian glanced at him and nodded gently, as if he believed what Jiang Lan said and had great confidence in his strength.

Bu Zhouxian looked at the two of them, his eyes becoming more and more confused.

She always felt that Jiang Lan's body was now shrouded in a mysterious mist, and Jiang Rushian obviously knew something about it.

After half a day, a few people tore through a large cosmic barrier, passed through several layers of space-time chaos, and finally arrived at the boundary where the Siji Xifu was located.

Looking around, there is silence, like eternal frozen soil, and the entire sky is dim, covered by thick fog.

The ground is full of ravines and cracks, as well as huge craters. Surrounded by light green will-o'-the-wisps that never go out, and surrounded by fluffy mist, it seems that they are really connected to the Nine Nether Underworld.

In the ancient years, the Emperor of Heaven tried to open up a real place of reincarnation and establish the underworld system in an independent and complete time and space outside the human world. Since then, the immortals have returned to heaven, the human world has returned to monks, and the ghosts have returned to the underworld.

It's a pity that such a prototype was only the beginning, and the ancient heaven collapsed.

The origin of the Siji Xifu is related to the prototype of the underworld. It is said that the end of the Siji Xifu is connected to the mother river of all things. After life returns to ruins, the spiritual matter in it will merge with the mother river of all things and become the creation. The substance of new life.

After a few years, the Mother Tree of Life will bloom and bear fruit, and new species of creatures will be born, similar to reincarnations, starting over and over again.

Jiang Lan stood in the time and space of Si Ji Xi Mansion. When he looked over, he felt a strange aura. In his eyes, thousands of threads of cause and effect spread out, and the world scene in front of him began to change. The last blurry shadow of the river appeared.

At the end of the Siji Xifu, there seems to be a river that contains the fate of all living things and the years flowing through it. Each branch seems to run through and spread into endless time and space, connecting any timeline from existence to nothing.

Each of its branches seems to be an eternal destiny that runs through everything. Endless fates converge into this boundless river.

"Dry branches of the Ten Thousand Mother Rivers..."

"This is a corner of the reincarnation system established by the Emperor of Heaven after the collapse of the ancient Heaven. The source is connected to the dry mother river of ten thousand rivers." Jiang Lan said.

Bu Zhouxian and Jiang Rushian were both a little surprised when they heard this.

"It seems that the rumors are true. The Siji Xifu is really related to the land of reincarnation..." Bu Zhouxian couldn't help but whisper.

In the depths of this land, a group of ancient palaces are located, with a long history of vicissitudes. There are also gray mountain peaks one after another, all gray and black, shrouded in a light mist, looming.

But in the most central place, the brilliant light shines, but it feels a bit sacred.

There is an extremely spacious high platform there, as if it were made of the darkest immortal gold, with natural textures one after another, and vast chaotic energy hanging down from the four corners, like a place where ancient immortal gods give lectures.

Above the high platform, in the void space, there are four caves hanging high. Each cave is extremely mysterious, swirling and glowing with different colors. It may be as gray as mist, or as golden as the blazing sun, or as clear as the blue sky...

Every hole in the cave is filled with intimidating and terrifying pressure. If you get even slightly closer, your body will explode.

There were many figures waiting on the high platform. Many human-like creatures, glowing all over, were drinking tea there.

There are beautiful maids who bring all kinds of fairy tea. There is a clear lake beside it, crystal clear, and tall sacred trees rustling with golden leaves and Buddhist rhymes. It seems that the chanting of the Buddha is coming out from the collision.

"The whirling sacred tree, the sacred tree in the Western Heaven Realm, is related to a certain ancient Buddha..." Empress Wanyang followed Jiang Lan and remained silent. Seeing the golden sacred tree at this moment, she couldn't help but feel... Startled.

"The creator of the Western Heaven Realm has a great connection with the master of the Si Ji Xi Palace. It has been said that the preacher of Buddhism in the Western Heaven Realm is an incarnation of the Si Ji Xi Palace." Immortal Buzhou said.

Empress Wanyang was even more surprised. She did not expect that all the worlds in the heavens and the world would have various involvements and connections with these restricted areas.

"According to this, after the catastrophe, those realm lords who disappeared will be sheltered by the major restricted areas." She thought this way.

"The people from Buzhou Duanshan are here..."

At this time, on the high platform, a humanoid creature spoke and glanced over.

His whole body was shrouded in brilliant rays of light, and he was sitting on a jade stool, sipping tea. His eyes were very deep and quiet, like an endless abyss, which made people tremble.

Opposite this humanoid creature, there was a boundless ray of light spreading, with the aura of divinity permeating the air. A gentle and magnetic voice sounded, saying, "Last time Bu Zhou Duan Shan was rude, I hope Bu Zhou Xian doesn't care."

In the center of this boundless light, there is also a figure sitting cross-legged. It is extremely blurry, as if there are countless worlds surrounding it. The five-color glow spreads like a living god. It is the figure who once forced his way through the Buzhou Broken Mountain. One of the Lords of the Forbidden Zone.

Behind them, there were many servants and descendants, a vast group of them, many in number, all exuding astonishing aura and pressure, and their strength was astonishing.

"You guys came quite early."

Bu Zhouxian's eyes were very dull, and she walked toward the high platform. Jiang Lan and Jiang Rushian followed her and landed on it together.

These two people are the owners of the ruins and the burial soil. The man sitting on the white jade stool is the owner of the ruins, and the world calls him God.

There are different opinions about his origin. Some people say that he is an innate ancient creature born in chaos, while others say that he is an existence that obtained supreme creation and became invincible after the first catastrophe of the heavens.

The origin of the Lord of Heaven is mysterious, and he has used the unique skills of the Emperor of Heaven and the Lord of Freedom. This makes people suspect that he may have received guidance from the Emperor of Heaven and the Lord of Freedom, or had a deep connection with these two.

"Fellow Daoist Four Extremes invited me, why didn't I come earlier?"

The figure in the boundless light opposite God spoke again, his tone was still very gentle, with a divine quality that made people think of gods and give them a feeling of worship.

However, its name is inconsistent with the divinity of this body. The owners of the forbidden area call it "Burial", and they are also the owners of the burial place.

"You guys came too early." Bu Zhouxian said coldly.

Zang smiled and said, "It's not too early, it's not too early. Come here early to discuss something. This should be the new emperor, right? Sure enough, it has become a climate. Luck is like a dragon. Don't look directly at it to rebuild the future order. The important task of clearing up the three realms of the heavens will be left to the new emperor."

On this high platform, many living beings cast their eyes over and looked at Jiang Lan, who had a calm expression. They were either surprised, shocked, obscure, or indifferent...differently.

"Speak more respectfully." Bu Zhouxian's eyes were even colder.

Zang smiled and said nothing, then looked at Jiang Rushian and said, "The successor of Kunlun Immortal Ruins. Logically speaking, there should be only nine restricted areas in the heavens. Kunlun Immortal Ruins has always been in the ancient heaven. Why did this woman come here? Could it be? What do fellow Taoists from the Four Extremes mean?"

Although his tone was gentle, he did not hide the aggressiveness and scrutiny.

Many creatures here looked at Jiang Rushian with evil eyes.

Jiang Ruxian's expression was even colder than Buzhouxian's, and his eyes were indifferent. He just stood there quietly, ignoring Zang's scrutinizing gaze.

"Since Fellow Taoist Siji allowed her to come in, she naturally got his permission. This matter has nothing to do with us." At this time, God spoke. His words were majestic and low, with a sense of oppression, which prevented Fu from continuing to examine her.

"At the end of the Nine Ages, the new emperor will appear, all balances will be leveled, and all catastrophes will disappear. This is the prophecy left by the Queen of Heaven."

"In the near future, we will all be liquidated by the Ancient Heavenly Court, so the new emperor does not need to worry about being on guard. Our position is the same. Our real enemies are the Ancient Heavenly Court and the Ancient Heavenly Emperor." God looked at Jiang Lan , the tone was slightly restrained, expressing goodwill.

While all the creatures were sizing up Jiang Lan, Jiang Lan's eyes also swept across them.

"All balances, the prerequisite for the elimination of all catastrophes is the unification of all heavens. I came here this time to inform you of this matter." His tone was casual, and he spoke directly as if he was giving an order.

Zang was startled when he heard this, then suddenly laughed and said, "Does the new emperor want us to submit to you?"

The other servants and followers behind him also laughed at this time, as if they had heard some joke, and looked at Jiang Lan with a hint of sarcasm.

As the lord of the restricted area, he can be said to be the most powerful group of beings in the world. Their scorn has shocked the sky for eternity throughout the ages, and few people can compare with them.

Jiang Lan proclaimed himself emperor in the ancient heaven world. How many years has passed since then, and he is trying to unify the heavens and let the owners of the restricted areas listen to his orders and be ruled by him?

Is he more or less fanciful and fanciful?

Do you really think that with a prophecy left by the Queen of Heaven, you can command all existence?

"The unification of the heavens is indeed an inevitable trend, and the new emperor's growth is indeed beyond our imagination. But if you want us to submit, you still have to show the qualifications for us to surrender willingly."

God did not sneer directly like Burial, but spoke seriously with some consolation.

The fact that Jiang Lan captured the Lord of the Dharma Realm across the barrier between the two realms did cause a lot of waves and sensations in the heavens, but this does not mean that Jiang Lan has the power to command the entire heavens?

Without the obstruction of the two-realm barrier, the lords of the restricted areas dealt with the realm lord as casually as a cat catching a mouse. Jiang Lan was able to ignore the two-realm barrier simply because of his special status.

From this point of view, it is not enough to convince the public.

"You are right, the unification of the heavens is an inevitable trend. I tell you in advance, it is giving you a chance." Jiang Lan's tone was as casual as ever, and there was no change in it.

God frowned and looked slightly unhappy, but he still said nothing.

The sarcasm in Zang's eyes became even stronger. He shook his head, picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp.

"You are really young and frivolous. I will say that being young and successful is not a good thing. You will never know how to be humble. You don't know that there are people outside the world and there is a heaven outside the world."

"What about the new emperor? I respect you, call you emperor, and don't care about you. You are nothing more than a descendant. The two masters of the restricted area have good intentions to comfort you, but you are so ignorant."

At this time, there was a sound not far away, and there was a rumble in the void, as if thunder was exploding.

A humanoid creature whose whole body was surrounded by thunder shook his head and sighed softly. A series of terrifying thunder talismans filled his body, as if he was performing an innate thunder disaster, accompanied by the aura of destruction, which made people dare not approach. .

He walked forward at a snail's pace, followed by a group of creatures that were also filled with lightning. They were all extremely powerful, with stern eyes and innate pride.

"The Thunder Spirit Clan among the Xiantian Spirit Clan. Like the Stone Spirit Clan, this clan was favored by the Great Dao and was born to control the power of thunder and lightning. The ancestors of this clan were once named Thunder Gods and mastered the punishment power of the ancient heaven. For unknown reasons, Leaving the ancient heaven..."

When Bu Zhouxian saw the person coming, he sent a message with his mind and explained to Jiang Lan.

She knew that Jiang Lan didn't know much about some ethnic groups and territories in Zhutian.

In addition to the great worlds, there are actually many ethnic groups with amazing origins living in them, and their underlying strength is not weaker than that of the most powerful worlds.

The Lei Ling clan in front of us is one of them. Among this clan, there is still the power of innate thunder punishment. It is a terrifying power that can punish immortals and cut off their immortal books, making even the owners of the restricted area afraid of it.

"It's not your turn to make irresponsible remarks on how I act." Jiang Lan just casually glanced at the leader of the Lei Ling tribe.

To be able to participate in this restricted area event, the origin and strength are not simple. This person actually breeds a complete world of thunder in his body. Its vastness is almost as vast as that of the Great Thousand Worlds. Not only that, it also breeds a whole world of thunder. The complete Avenue of Thunder is filled with countless thunder lights, dazzling and astonishing.

In terms of strength, the average world lord may not be the opponent of this creature.

"Lei Luo, of the Lei Ling clan, has met the two masters of the restricted area. I am here at the order of my ancestor to participate in this grand event on my behalf."

This member of the Lei Ling clan first bowed his hands to the Lord Burial and God, and then said to Jiang Lan with a sneer, "Our clan has mastered the power of thunder since birth, and has been blessed by the great road. The clans in the world, even dragons and phoenixes, are afraid of our clan. Three points, even so, our clan does not dare to stand up in front of the master of the restricted area."

"The prophecy of the Queen of Heaven is nothing more than rhetoric used to deceive the world. Even the ancient emperor's decree and mantra, our clan dares to tear it up and ignore it. What qualifications do you have to scream in front of our clan? ?”

"The true new emperor has to be selected and competed through countless fights and battles. Your name is unfair and you are not worthy of being called so."

"My clan is the first to refuse to accept it."

With the last sentence, Lei Luo had made no effort to conceal his hostility. In his eyes, the lightning surged, as if a sea of ​​thunder was undulating, with astonishing destructive power.

He stared at Jiang Lan closely, and a terrifying fighting spirit arose in him. If it weren't for the special time and space here, it would have been torn apart and penetrated, and even the entire universe would be in chaos.

All the creatures on this high platform looked like they were watching the excitement when they saw this, and they didn't mind that the matter was serious at all.

Neither Zang nor Tianzhu said a word, but just watched this scene quietly. They could naturally see that Lei Luo had already been signaled, otherwise it would be impossible for him to say such words to the Queen of Heaven on the territory of Siji Xifu. "Rebellious and unjust".

There was already a layer of coldness on Bu Zhouxian's face. This Lei Luo provoked Jiang Lan and even insulted the Queen. This was something she couldn't bear at all.

"It seems that you want to compete for the position of the new emperor?" Jiang Lan's expression was not because of Lei Luo's words, and he still had the same casual tone.

Lei Luo said coldly, "I'm just dissatisfied. The position of the new emperor should be born under the witness of all the heavens, all races and all the worlds, and not obtained by you who cleverly established a name in the ancient heaven world and divided the ancient heaven emperor's luck. "

"Presumptuous." Bu Zhouxian looked angry and provoked again and again. She really didn't take her, the master of Bu Zhou Duanshan, seriously.

Lei Luo was obviously a little wary of Bu Zhouxian, but after Bu Zhouxian cast a gentle look at him, he suddenly felt at ease and said, "Jiang Lan, do you dare to fight me?"

These words, he used his magic power, and instantly spread on this high platform, like thunder rolling from the sky, attracting everyone's attention.

Even in the area of ​​Siji Xifu, many creatures heard it and cast their eyes from different areas.

The master of the Si Ji Xi Palace, who had never appeared before, was also looking over from a high place in the void. There was a vague figure beside him, who was also paying attention, with a strange look in his eyes.

"You are not qualified to fight with me."

Jiang Lan put his hands behind his back and didn't pay much attention to Lei Luo's provocation. It seemed that the real dragon didn't care about the clamor of the ants under his feet, and his emotions did not cause any waves.

"However, if you want to seek death, I can help you. It just so happens that I need a Dao Law to perfect one of my things." He said calmly.

"Haha, even the lord of the restricted area cannot humiliate our clan like this. You are so bold."

Lei Luo shouted angrily and punched him directly.

With a bang, there was a big explosion in the void, and a surging true thunder of chaos suddenly fell from the sky, reflecting the dark and deep universe outside, and it was about to shatter everything.

Seeing this movement, Jiang Lan raised his eyes and seemed to finally look at Lei Luo formally. Then he opened his mouth and made a swallowing motion.

For a moment, countless rules in front were distorted, and the chaotic true thunder that struck down suddenly spread. The place where Lei Luo stood seemed to be swallowed up by an invisible giant mouth, and instantly turned into a vacuum, and even the aura of the avenue disappeared. .

Lei Luo's entire body disappeared out of thin air, as if he had evaporated. Even the traces of his aura completely dissipated, leaving nothing behind.

Seeing this incredible scene, all the creatures on the high platform were stunned, unable to believe their eyes.

Tianzhu and Zang couldn't help but shrink their pupils. They looked at each other and saw a hint of disbelief and horror in each other's expressions.
