Chapter 267: A Different Kind of Soul Search
PS: Although Lao Gao doesn't have much more every day, it is quite stable, so I also brazenly ask for a monthly pass, I hope my friends will support it!
Although the Soul Continent is barbaric and primitive, it has also produced many heroes in its history, and if you talk about the most legendary monks among them, Zhu Tenghai must be on the list.
This great monk in the early stage of the Yuan Infant, before the age of thirty, was still a mortal, without any mana, just a warrior of a small tribe of the barbarians, and later because he offended the patriarch, he fled abroad, and gradually disappeared, and everyone thought that he had died under the fangs and sharp teeth of the demon beast.
But a hundred years later, this person has returned strongly, and he has achieved the body of Jindan, and he will kill all the descendants of the patriarch who bullied him back then, and the cold and ruthless means make people creepy and shudder. And where he got his opportunity to become a monk has always been a mystery that no one knows.
Ten years later, Zhu Tenghai single-handedly sword, killed the famous evil cultivator flower pet at that time, achieved an indestructible reputation, and became the object of Shili from all sides, Zhu Tenghai finally chose Longyu City, and became the personal guard of the former Longyu City Lord Mengshan, during this period, for the development and growth of Longyu City, he made countless achievements, and his cultivation also advanced by leaps and bounds.
Three hundred years ago, Zhu Tenghai finally couldn't hold back his desire for power, and made an appointment to fight Mengshan in the underground wrestling field.
With the name of this battle, Zhu Tenghai ascended to the position of the city lord of Longyu, which is also the way to promote the seven city lords of the Soul Continent, becoming a king and defeating a king, this simple and violent tradition of ancient inheritance, even Shili of Immortal Island has no right to ask.
In fact, as long as the Immortal Island's demand for cultivation resources and young genius monks is satisfied, this one is far overseas. Shili, who is also high in the sky, has no interest in the power strife of the Seven Great Cities.
After Zhu Tenghai became the lord of Longyu Mansion, the first thing he did was to kill Mengshan's children, and Mengshan's women were snatched by him to be his wife, and it is said that the most favored lady in the city lord's mansion is now the most favored lady in the clouds. is also Zhu Man's biological mother, who is Mengshan's beloved wife back then.
It sounds bloody and barbaric, but this is the way of survival of the barbarians, if one day, Zhu Tenghai is defeated and replaced, the fate of his wife and children will not be easy either, so after every new mansion master takes office, he will frantically loot for cultivation resources. Constantly strengthen yourself and your children.
After the family affairs were settled, Zhu Tenghai was good at diplomacy and the main candle of the Xingfeng Mansion had no ink, and internally he passed down a large number of exercises and spells to improve the strength of the guards of Longyu City, and in less than two hundred years, this city at the bottom of the Soul Continent had the appearance of prosperity today.
And Zhu Tenghai's reputation among the barbarians is also becoming more and more powerful, causing countless monks to vote. It gradually appears like the sky in the sky.
However, this great monk who is at the pinnacle of his life seems to be very unsatisfactory recently. often looks sad.
Ye Bai came to the reception hall, bowed down and stood with most of the incense, this great monk had not yet recovered from his trance, stared and thought, and ignored Ye Bai, which made him extremely embarrassed.
There was another man sitting in the hall. It's still the middle-aged monk from last time. The old man looked at Ye Bai a few times with a strange expression, but did not speak.
For a while, the atmosphere was extremely strange.
Just when Ye Bai was nervous, Zhu Tenghai took a long breath, looked at him and said with a playful smile: "I didn't expect that we were all blind." You kid is so hidden. ”
Ye Bai's heart trembled violently, his heart pounded, he forcibly suppressed the horror in his eyes, and tried to keep calm and said, "The junior doesn't understand what the mansion master means!"
Zhu Tenghai smiled, and the tiger eyes tightly caught Ye Bai's gaze and said: "Last night, two monks died by the Lishui River, and you happened to be at the scene at the time, boy, come and tell me, what is going on in this matter?"
Sure enough, it was for last night's incident.
Ye Bai looked at him with a calm expression, and said without flinching: "Mansion Master, I did see the ashes of two monks by the river last night in Longyu, but the deaths of these two have nothing to do with me. ”
"Yes, it doesn't matter, it's not up to you!"
Zhu Tenghai smiled coldly, his eyes suddenly glowed with a bright red light, and in an instant, Ye Bai felt a buzz in his head, only feeling that he was stepping on the void, without the slightest sense of strength, his soul was leaving his body, as if he was about to fall into Zhu Tenghai's eyes, and he couldn't do it himself.
Ye Bai forcibly concentrated, but he couldn't even turn his gaze.
Immediately after a sharp pain, the Yuan Shen was like being whipped by someone, the pain was so painful that he convulsed, Ye Bai couldn't help but scream, his face was as pale as death.
Zhu Tenghai must be using the soul searching technique on him, this is the only thought in Ye Bai's mind, a great monk in the middle of the Yuan Infant launched the soul searching technique against him, he can't resist at all, he can only let him do it. In an instant, Ye Bai's body was cold, and his mind fell to the bottom, if he came from outside the sky and impersonated Li Lu's secret was discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable.
......
After a while, the red mangs disappeared, and Zhu Tenghai snorted coldly: "Count your kid lucky, it has nothing to do with this matter, otherwise even if Candle Wumo comes in person, he won't be able to save your life!"
When Ye Bai heard this, he was surprised in his heart. What does Zhu Tenghai mean? Didn't he find information about himself? Ye Bai hurriedly lowered his head and hugged his head to hide the shock in his heart.
The pain gradually subsided, although Zhu Tenghai's soul searching technique was only a few dozen breaths of effort, but Ye Bai had already broken out in a few cold sweats, some were shocked, some were in pain, and the mood was heaven and earth, and he walked back and forth a few times.
Ye Bai's mind was spinning, Zhu Tenghai's soul searching technique seemed to be very different from the common ones in the Firmament Continent, he could only judge the truth of the other party's words, but could not detect the details in them, maybe it should not be called the soul searching technique, but the art of identification.
How could a heroic figure in the middle of the Yuan Infant Dynasty use such a low-level spell? Ye Bai couldn't help but think of the monk of Immortal Island, could it be that this mysterious shili deliberately leaked it in order to protect his secret?
Ye Bai was sure that his guesses were inseparable, and if Zhu Tenghai knew that Ye Bai had only deduced this secret that no one knew from a soul search he had performed, he would definitely drop his jaw.
As soon as he stood still, Zhu Tenghai suddenly stretched out his fingers, flicked them on his chest a few times, and then raised his hand with a move, and a series of dark golden marks were pulled out of Ye Bai's body by him and integrated into his palm.
Ye Bai's chest suddenly became hot, the cold feeling was swept away, the prohibition was exhausted, and it returned to normal.
"Thank you, Lord!"
Zhu Tenghai relieved Ye Bai's ban so easily, which really surprised him.
Zhu Tenghai glanced at him slightly and said: "Your Yuan Shen is practicing well, under my Mind Confusion Technique, I actually recovered after just a few shouts, and if I replaced other late-stage foundation building monks, I would have collapsed to the ground a long time ago." ”
Ye Bai's face tightened, he had already screamed seven points true and three points false, but he was still noticed by the other party, and he was trying to find an old-fashioned excuse such as taking spirit fruit since he was a child.
Zhu Tenghai waved his hand domineeringly and said: "You don't need to explain, the old man is not interested in your affairs, let alone asking, it is normal to hide this kind of thing." ”
Ye Bai smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your forgiveness, the younger generation really has a hard time." ”
"Of course I know you're in trouble!"
Zhu Tenghai showed a meaningful smile on his face, as if there was something in his words.
Ye Bai was slightly stunned, but he couldn't figure out what the other party meant, and said respectfully: "I don't know if the mansion master called the juniors, do you have any other instructions?"
Zhu Tenghai waved his hand lightly and said, "You go down, come to me again tomorrow morning, I have something to tell you." ”
Ye Bai was stunned, did not dare to reveal his dissatisfaction, and said goodbye and left.
The middle-aged monk kept looking at the things in the hall with cold eyes, until Ye Bai walked away, and then he was curious: "Brother Zhu, you seem to be very interested in this kid, with your style of acting, whether he has anything to do with last night's incident or not, you can kill him casually, why bother with all this effort, is it possible that your relationship with Candle Wumo is so good that even the junior who sent the letter under his city has to maintain it?"
Zhu Tenghai said inscrutablely: "The true identity of this kid is not as simple as you think, but he himself should not know it yet." ”
The middle-aged monk was surprised, "What is his identity?"
Zhu Tenghai smiled and said, "Brother Bian, do you remember, how did that old guy Candle Wumo become the lord of the mansion?"
When the middle-aged monk heard this, his face changed drastically and said, "Could it be that he has something to do with that person?"
Zhu Tenghai nodded silently, his eyes were extremely complicated. (To be continued......)
