Chapter 921 The Gatekeeper
On the last day of February, experts from all over the world gathered in Tian.
……
On this day, Fang ping arranged for the staff to continue until late at night.
Taking advantage of the night, a Palace broke through the air and streaked across the sky.
It was not the combat heavenly Palace, but a Palace seized from li an. Fang ping had named it the "heaven Hall".
Chen Yunxi walked out of the darkness below as she watched the heaven Hall fly away from the sky. She took a look at the heaven Hall and stood there quietly for a moment before leaving.
Not only her, but the other people of Tian also rose into the air and flew in all directions.
There was no farewell, and there was no need to.
Neo martial artists were used to separation.
The southern region catacombs were filled with the footprints of neo martial artists. They gathered less and left more. This was a true powerhouse.
……
The heaven Hall was huge.
Of course, its defensive power couldn\'t be compared to that of the combat heavenly Palace.
In the main hall.
At this moment, experts from all sides gathered.
Beigong Yan glanced at Fang ping, who was resting with his eyes closed. He did not know what Fang ping was thinking, but he still took the initiative to say,""Let\'s go to the Forbidden City Underground cave first. We\'ll pass through the Forbidden City Underground cave, and we\'ll pass through the defensive Sea Mountain. It\'s only a thousand li away from the king battle arena. "
"Yes," beigong Xiong said."We\'ve also gathered some information."
"This time, the four great imperial courts of the catacombs are in cahoots. They\'re acting together. There are probably four to five hundred rank-9s in the catacombs martial artists and the Goblin! And it seems like there are more people gathering, the number is beyond imagination!"
"Heaven\'s beyond, other than the six on our side, there are sixteen other clans in the twenty-two heaven\'s beyond. Chang Rong heaven and great peace heaven have not sent anyone out this time, the other fourteen clans are not certain, we have not monitored the exact situation. "
"In the 8 regions, other than the two here, I\'m not sure about the situation on Mount Wangwu, Mount Zigui and Mount Kuocang, there\'s no one else"
Hearing this, Fang ping suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Star Town City.
This time, almost all the people in Star Town City had come out!
Zhenxing city had been exploring the king\'s battlefield for many years. Previously, almost all of their rank-9s were there.
This time, in addition to those old acquaintances, Jiang Yuanhua, su Haoran, Wei Yong, Li Xinmin ... These family heads, there were also some unfamiliar powerhouses.
Very strong!
Zheng Yuehua, the second Grandmaster of the Zheng family, was previously ranked sixth on the Chinese origin ranking list and was now ranked 44th on the power ranking list.
Zhou Xinghe, the second ancestor of the Zhou family, was ranked 7th on the Chinese origin ranking list and 52nd on the power ranking list.
The Zheng and Zhou families were not the families that guarded the precinct. The ones that came from the precinct were the Jiang, su, Wei, Chen, and Chen families.
The Jiang clan came from Mount zigai.
The SU family came from Weiyu mountain.
The Chen family came from the Xuande Grotto-heaven on Taibai Mountain.
The Wei family was from Mount Huo Tong.
The Shen family came from Mount Luofu.
There was also the Yang family. The Yang family came from Mount Emei\'s Xuling Grotto-heaven.
Kuocang mountain and Wangwu mountain, these were the remaining 8 regions!
When beigong Yan said this, Fang ping said, "What\'s the situation at Mount Huo Tong and Mount Luofu? Patriarch Wei, patriarch Shen, do you two know about this?"
Shen Mingwei quickly replied,"there should be someone from Mount Luofu this time!" But we\'re not too sure about the details. The Shen family stopped guarding the boundary 90 years ago and hasn\'t been there for a long time. "
The Shen and Chen families had already given up on the boundary region.
Chen yaozu and the others had no choice but to stay there. They didn\'t want the Maple King\'s people to enter, so they had stayed there for 15 years.
The Shen family had long given up on that side.
"Someone from Huo Tongshan has also come out of the mountain," Wei Yong said from the Wei family."But he didn\'t contact us, so we don\'t know the specific situation."
Fang ping nodded slightly and said,"since you\'ve met them at the king\'s battlefield, the two patriarchs can communicate more with the other party!" By the way, has anyone left Mount Emei\'s Xuling cave?"
"This ..."
Jiang Yuanhua thought for a moment and said,""Minister Fang, there\'s something ... I have to say."
"Senior Jiang, please speak."
"You know, the Yang family comes from Mount Emei. A few days ago, yang Jingjing left star suppression city for the Tiannan catacombs. After that, she seemed to have disappeared. She might have gone to the Xuling cave ..."
A figure flashed across Fang Ping\'s mind. He had met the current patriarch of the Yang family when he went to Saturn city that day.
She was yang daohong\'s granddaughter and Yang Qing\'s younger sister.
"Senior Jiang," Fang ping said indifferently,"in the past, you said that the Yang family would never leave star suppression city again ..."
"It\'s been chaotic in Star Town City recently," Jiang Yuanhua said apologetically."We\'ve been negligent." We didn\'t know that she had left star suppression city until yang Jingjing left. "
When Fang ping went to Saturn city the other day, it was Jiang Yuanhua who came forward to make peace and asked Fang ping not to argue with the Yang family.
He also agreed that the Yang family wouldn\'t leave star suppression city anymore.
Fang ping did not say much. He nodded and said, "Let\'s go!"
He didn\'t really care.
Yang Jingjing was only rank-6 back then. Even if she really entered the Xuling heavenly abode now, could she reach rank-8?
Her family\'s patriarch had died in the Xuling Grotto-heaven. Even if the sect master of Xuling Grotto-heaven took him in and still remembered the Yang family\'s ties as his sect, Fang ping was not worried about anything.
The sect master of Xuling Grotto-heaven had even killed the patriarch of the Yang family. Would he go against Fang ping for the sake of the Yang family\'s descendants?
When Jiang Yuanhua mentioned this, some people\'s eyes flickered.
Fang ping did not care at all. \'If you\'re so capable, contact the people from Xuling Grotto-heaven and join forces to deal with me.\'
After listening to beigong Yan\'s brief report on the situation, Fang ping said,""That\'s how it is. There are many experts from all sides! Not only did the demon clan come to the forbidden Sea, but there were also many human experts. They were all experts from the so-called overseas immortal islands.
According to the ranking chart of the Three Realms, there were 33 overseas immortal islands, both of which were of the human and demon race.
The forbidden Sea was the strongest.
If 10 rank-9s came from each family, that would be 300 to 400.
"There are 400 to 500 people in the catacombs, and we have 200 people. If we include the other grandmasters and boundary lands, I\'m afraid that there will be more than 1000 rank-9s gathered at the king battle arena this time!"
Thousands!
This was the number of rank-9s in the king Battle Ground this time.
As soon as Fang ping said this, many people\'s expressions turned serious.
This was also why they chose to cooperate instead of fighting alone.
There were too many rank-9s!
Many ants could bite an elephant to death.
"Rank-9s have yet to experience a qualitative change. Even Qi Huanyu might die if he\'s surrounded by more than ten rank-9s, let alone them.
Fang ping continued,"brute force won\'t work!" "Over a thousand rank-9s, all enemies. Then we\'ll just wait to be surrounded and killed! Now, they could be divided into four forces.
We, the catacombs, heaven\'s beyond, and the other worlds are considered one side, and the overseas immortal islands.
Everyone, we need to rope in at least one of them. Only then will we have the capital to gain a foothold in the king Battle Ground!
Brother Jiang, since you\'re from the precinct, can we rope in the other precinct and Outland?"
Jiang Yu thought for a while and said,"I think the overseas immortal islands are more suitable!" The fairy islands in the bitter sea had always fought alone. They might not know each other and had no interactions with other parties.
It would be easier to win them over.
As for the other grandmasters and sects, it would be very difficult ...
Because of some things, including the war between the North and the South, there are some people in the human realm upon heavens and the sects who have a deeper grudge than you against the martial artists in the land ..."
"That\'s right,"Xuan Hua added," this is the reason why the heavens beyond heaven and the sects have not fully United! Some situations are very complicated, so the overseas immortal islands are a good choice. "
Fang ping nodded lightly and said thoughtfully,"Then the main target of the Alliance will be those overseas immortal islands!"
After saying that, Fang ping looked at the crowd and said,"after entering, listen to my instructions!" If you want to get the treasure, listen to me. That\'s the best way!"
Seeing that some people did not seem to believe him, Fang ping said indifferently,""If you don\'t believe me, it only means you\'re ignorant! "I, Fang ping, have only been to the king battle grounds twice, but I was able to do whatever I wanted there! "I\'ve killed all the powerhouses in the catacombs!
This is my confidence. If you have this confidence, you can try it yourself!
If not, then listen to me!
"When I enter the catacombs, I never return-handed. Everyone knows this."
As soon as he said that, Xu Bing smiled and said,""We naturally believe in Minister Fang on this point. If not for that, this operation wouldn\'t have taken place."
"That\'s good!"
Fang ping said slowly,"remember this, it\'s okay to be afraid of death!" However, those who were afraid of death on the battlefield would die the fastest! I told you to kill people, so just kill people and stop wasting time with me! If you\'re all afraid of death, then don\'t go!"
"Our only hope is to strike fear into their hearts!"
"I\'m afraid all of you have a mission. Getting the Supreme treasure is your only goal! Don\'t blame me for informing the venerable sovereigns of your families if someone doesn\'t put in any effort. I\'d like to see what will happen to you if you fail to seize the treasure. "
These words instantly hit everyone\'s vital point!
Some people\'s faces changed instantly!
They had come out of the mountain this time to seize the Supreme treasure. This was a hundred percent certain.
Once they did not contribute in the king battle field and failed to get the treasure in the end, once they were blamed, it would be difficult for them to escape death. Even if they did not die, they would not have a good end if they offended the venerable sovereigns.
With a few simple words, Fang ping had subdued these people, making Jiang Yu and the others more vigilant.
This person looked reckless, but there were some things that he was well aware of. He was much smarter than they had imagined.
Fang ping was too lazy to say more. He waved his hand and said,"This is it! Everyone, do as you please and conserve your energy. We\'ll talk again when we reach the king battle field!"
With that, Fang ping stood up and strolled out of the main hall.
Everyone looked at each other and left.
There were quite a few rooms in the heaven Hall, and each faction had been allocated some.
……
At the top of the heaven Palace.
Tian Mu and a few others were flying in the heaven Hall.
Seeing Fang ping come up, Tian Mu set up a mentality barrier and said quickly,""How\'s Kong Lingyuan?"
"I\'m not completely awake yet. "
Fang ping furrowed his brows slightly."If he\'s still not awake by the time we reach the Royal Sea Mountain, we can\'t bring him there. Get someone to send him back!"
Tian Mu nodded slightly and smiled bitterly."If old Kong wakes up, he\'ll probably be cursing! "It\'s only been a few days since I\'ve recovered, and I\'ve already fought a cult for the first time. Then, a few days later, I\'ve fought a catacombs, and before I even wake up, I\'ve already been dragged to the king\'s battleground ..."
Kong Lingyuan\'s injuries had been quite serious back then, and he had only recovered after many years of recuperation.
After that, in order to wait for an opportunity, he had been hiding.
The first time he fought was when he fought with Zhao xingwu, and he was injured quite badly.
The second time was in the Magic City catacombs. If it was not for the gray cat\'s intervention, he would have died long ago.
Now that he was still unconscious, he was ready to take him to the battlefield.
Hearing Tian MU\'s words, Fang ping smiled bitterly."No choice! "There are too few rank-9s in Sino nation. We\'ll have to use them until they\'re dead!"
Tian Mu said with emotion,"it\'s always been like this!" Otherwise, there would not be a rank-9 who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, old beyond belief! It was not a problem for a rank-9 to live for a thousand years, but in the neo martial era, how many people could live to a hundred years old?
"Let\'s not talk about the others, just old Yu alone. He\'s a rank-8 who\'s exhausted everything. His injuries are too severe, and he has no choice but to die ... Sigh!
"Fortunately, you were there. The imperishable substance that you created helped many people recover from their injuries, including some old injuries. This contribution is not inferior to anyone else."
The imperishable substance that Fang ping had created had saved too many people!
"Otherwise, there might be more than 10 fewer rank-9s today!
Like Tian Mu himself, without Fang Ping, he would have died long ago.
Did Wu kuishan and the others still have a chance to live until now?
Even Nan yunyue was not able to advance that time. If she had not, she might have been killed on the spot!
These people\'s injuries had accumulated on their bodies, and even the Golden body couldn\'t heal them.
The more powerful they were, the more China would use them until they died.
Kong Ling Yuan was not the only one.
Fang ping listened quietly. After a while, he said, "It\'ll be better in the future. We have more and more experts! In a few days, you old people can at least have some time to rest ..."
"There\'s no need to rest. When the world is at peace, we\'ll continue to rest!"
"I\'m looking forward to my retirement,"Tian Mu said with a smile.
"There will be such a day."
Fang ping laughed and sat on the roof. He looked at the starry sky and said softly,"Actually, I\'m also tired. One battle after another, one war after another, it\'s really tiring! In the past, he could still rest, but now he didn\'t have the chance. After so many turns ...
Senior brother Tian, tell me, if everyone in this world didn\'t know martial arts and no one could destroy the world, if they were all ordinary people, wouldn\'t they be much happier?"
"Can you eat your fill and wear warm clothes?"
"Sure."
Fang ping laughed."Just like the ordinary people now, living a nine-to-five life. Although it\'s monotonous, it\'s a blessing. Is such a life good?"
Tian Mu thought for a moment and said with uncertainty,"I don\'t know. The current me yearns for such a life. "However, if it really comes to that, I might feel bored.
Of course, you can have martial arts, but it\'s not a bad choice if you only practice martial arts to strengthen your body or to compare notes. "
Fang ping continued to look at the starry sky, muttering,"In this chaotic world, everyone yearns for peace! How did that peaceful world come to be?"
Tian Mu looked at him and frowned slightly."Fang ping, are you alright? Don\'t let your heart be confused at this time! Next, when we arrive at the Royal battlefield, I\'m afraid that you will be the target of public criticism, and if you are the slightest bit careless, you will lose your life. How can you let your imagination run wild at this time!"
"I\'m not overthinking. "
Fang ping waved his hand. He stood up and said,"Then I\'ll go down first and rest for a while."
"Alright," he said.
"……"
The two exchanged a few words before Fang ping entered the palace.
The palace was already quiet.
Some of them were cultivating, while others were waiting. No one spoke.
Even some of the demons did not dare to make a sound. There were many experts today, and these demons were afraid of angering the masses.
……
Just as the heaven Hall was about to reach the capital.
The Forbidden City catacombs, near the Royal Sea Mountain.
At this moment, experts gathered.
Some of them wore a crown and had golden hair and blue eyes. Their auras were extremely powerful.
One of them was wearing a Kasaya and had a shiny bald head. He held a Buddhist staff in his hand and was chanting Buddhist scriptures in a low voice.
There were also people who were like rotten mummies, extremely thin and emaciated, and their laughter was horrifying.
……
The powerhouses of the six great Holy Lands had gathered together for the first time!
This was the first time they had come in such complete sets!
Some of them were chatting in a low voice, while others were looking at the top experts in front of the crowd.
Heavenly King suppression, martial King, sun god, war god, first ancient Buddha, great Pharaoh ...
At the front of the crowd, Zhang Tao, with his hands behind his back, said with a smile,""It\'s not easy to gather all of you together! "We humans are at the peak. This time, we\'ve come in full force. Even the catacombs will shake!"
"Martial King, you don\'t have to say these meaningless words."
A golden-haired man with a violent aura and a huge battle-axe in his hand laughed and said,""Normally, it\'s fine to fight! At the crucial moment, the six Holy Lands were still as one!
People like us have already died once. If it wasn\'t for the Heavenly King who dug me out of my grave, we wouldn\'t be here now!"
The Heavenly King, who was mentioned, turned to look at him and said with a faint smile,""You remember?"
The golden-haired man with the battle axe came from God\'s paradise. He was one of the few top powerhouses who were close to becoming an Emperor-level expert, the battle God of owl!
Hearing the Heavenly King, the God of War laughed,""I remember some of it! Otherwise, he wouldn\'t be able to get to this point! But I\'m just a little curious. Why were we scattered all over the place instead of being all gathered in Star Town City?"
Many people looked at Heavenly King Zhen when he said that.
The six great Holy Lands!
In fact, it was all caused by the Heavenly King of suppression!
Some of the ancient experts were excavated by the Heavenly King of suppression from all over the world.
Some of them only had a little bit of spiritual energy left, some of them only had a half-crippled golden body, and most of them didn\'t remember their past.
Only a small number of people still remembered who had saved them back then.
Zhang Tao, on the other hand, was a little surprised. He smiled and said,"He dug you out? I asked him before, but he didn\'t tell me. I\'m curious, where did he find so many strong people?"
Heavenly King Zhen smiled,"there are plenty of places to dig up corpses!" Go to the ruins of the heavenly realm and dig, you can find it everywhere! Or, he could go to some secret places in the forbidden Sea and dig them up, including earth. There were also experts back then ... There were always some who were not completely dead.
Back then, a Great War had also occurred on earth. Of course, it wasn\'t as large as other places.
However, the earth had also been broken, and the land had been divided, so many people had died.
I\'ll just randomly dig around and find you guys. "
"……"
Everyone was speechless. Someone laughed and said,"so, we were all dug out?"
"More or less."
"There\'s a reason why I dug you out,"Heavenly King Zhen laughed. The majority of you vindicated your Dao on earth! Then, it would be inseparable from earth. Don\'t think about avoiding certain things like the inter-world and human realm upon heavens.
You\'re closely related to earth, so it\'s inevitable!
Speaking of which, the guys in star suppression city had a complicated background. They came from the precinct and other places. Some of them had proven their way in the catacombs.
Therefore, they were the ones who could avoid trouble.
That\'s why I had no choice but to gather these guys together and keep an eye on them. Do you all understand now?"
"Hahaha, I see!"
Everyone laughed out loud.
"What did you do in the past?" Zhan Wang asked, puzzled. A professional Grave Digger?"
Old ghost li was really good at digging!
There were almost 50 paragons on earth. Other than a few who had broken through in recent years, the rest were all old antiques.
In that case, old ghost li had dug out forty to fifty paragons?
No one else could do this!
Heavenly King Zhen laughed,"I know a lot. I know where the war took place and where people died. I\'ll follow the map and look for it." Some ancient battlefields have been forgotten by many people. If I remember them, then I can naturally find them. "
Zhan Wang touched his chin and looked at him for a while. Then, he said with a smile,""Old man Li, you\'re the second on the Imperial leaderboard. To be honest, can you fight ten venerable sovereigns alone? If mo Wen could do it, could it be that you can \'t? Your ranking is even higher than his!"
As soon as he said that, everyone looked at the tall old man in front of them.
That\'s right!
If mo Wen\'s sword could take on ten people at once, what about the Heavenly King of suppression?
Second on the Emperor ranking!
As for mo Wenjian, he was ranked third on the Emperor roll, one rank lower than him.
Heavenly King Zhen laughed,"even if I can, so what?" The current situation was very complicated! 22 heavens beyond heaven, 8 world domains, 33 overseas immortal islands ... There are many Emperor level experts! You can take on ten people at once, but can you take on thirty-five people at once?
Besides, we\'re not Overlord-tier, so the difference between ordinary paragons and US isn\'t that big. You can fight 30 people alone, but can you beat 50?"
Zhan Wang didn\'t care about this. He said in disbelief,""So, you can really fight one against ten?"
"Why don\'t you guess?" Heavenly King Zhen continued to smile.
"Guess my ass!"
Zhan Wang cursed. I\'m not guessing.
Zhang Tao took a deep look at Heavenly King Zhen and said slowly,""Senior li, now that things have come to this, I\'m actually still curious about one thing. How many paths have you taken?"
"How many?"
Heavenly King Zhen thought for a while and said,"I don\'t remember!" Who would remember those things when they\'ve lived for so long!"
"How far can you go on that path?"
A 10,000-meter wide great Dao was a venerable sovereign level!
A two-fold increase in strength.
Previously, Zhang Tao had thought that if he walked to 100000 meters with a 3x increase, he would be considered an Emperor.
However, was a three-fold increase really the power of an Emperor?
Even with a base vitality of 500000 Cal, after the three-fold increase, it would only be 2 million Cal after adding the base vitality. This was still too far away from breaking through the nine levels of heaven as the Dragon-transformed Celestial Emperor had said!
"How far can I go?"
Heavenly King Zhen laughed,"I don\'t know. I\'m not an Emperor. How would I know?" However, there was no need to think too much about it. In fact, it did not mean that a King would really have ten million Cal of vitality. Vitality ... Would actually undergo a qualitative change!
A qualitative change had occurred once in a thousand meters. Even if there was no qualitative change after walking ten thousand meters, it did not mean that there would be no qualitative change in the future.
If you continue walking, you will discover that there is a qualitative change!
It was actually a process of energy purification!
"When you undergo another qualitative change, your 2 million Cal will be comparable to the Paragon\'s 4 million Cal. If you undergo another qualitative change, that\'ll be 8 million Cal ..."
Zhang Tao suddenly came to a realization!
"Then how many times did senior li undergo a qualitative change?" he asked.
"Me?"
"I don\'t remember." Heavenly King Zhen still said the same old thing.
"You ..."
Zhang Tao was almost speechless. Who was he lying to?
Heavenly King Zhen couldn\'t be bothered to say more and laughed,"let\'s not talk about this. Everyone, there\'s no need to think too much. I don\'t have the strength to suppress the Three Realms!" If he really had the strength, he wouldn\'t need to do this.
Let\'s not talk about the others, I might not even be a match for some of the guys who are still alive.
It was just that the one in Wang Wu hadn\'t come out of the mountain yet. It was hard to say if he had.
"If mo Wen sword really goes all out ... It\'s hard to say who\'s going to win.
Aside from these few ... There are many more capable people in the Three Realms. "
"There are more?" Zhang Tao frowned.
"There are!"
Heavenly King Zhen sighed,"the Three Realms ... Is much more complicated than you think!" There are some things that even I\'m not clear about! The nine emperors and four Emperors ... Were all gone! Were they really all gone, or were they just a lie?
Where is the king of earth?
The projection of the king of earth had been maintained for thousands of years. Was he really dead?
If he died, could he maintain the projection for thousands of years?
If he died, was there a need for him to build a divine dynasty?
If the king of earth didn\'t die, what about the others?
It\'s so complicated!"
Heavenly King Zhen shook his head and sighed."That\'s why you don\'t have to keep an eye on me. I\'m afraid some people have heard some rumors from the catacombs. Something about me becoming the Emperor and unifying the Three Realms ... That\'s just nonsense!
I\'ve been guarding the mortal realm for countless years, you can treat me as your gatekeeper!
In the past, I was entrusted by someone to protect the human world ... Let\'s not talk about the past.
I don\'t know if it was a responsibility or a mission all these years ... It\'s been too long, so long that I\'ve forgotten the original purpose of all this. "
Everyone\'s emotions were fluctuating.
Entrusted by someone?
Who had entrusted the Heavenly King to him?
The gatekeeper?
Why did he want to protect the human world?
Without waiting for them to think, Heavenly King Zhen laughed,""Let\'s go and see our old friends! He was afraid that he would meet many old friends this time. The two in the turtle shell were probably coming out this time.
They\'re coming out ... You guys take it easy!
These two guys were only the remnants of the earth Emperor divine dynasty. The other experts of the earth Emperor divine dynasty might not have all died.
Life King is bent on breaking the turtle shell ... Haha, maybe someone is secretly instigating him. "
Zhang Tao frowned slightly and didn\'t say anything. He followed the Heavenly King suppression King and the others to the king Battle Ground.
In the blink of an eye, everyone had arrived a thousand miles away.
At that moment, a heaven-breaking aura rose up!
The catacombs powerhouses had long sensed that the human powerhouses had come out in full force, and were also extremely solemn. At this moment, outside the entire King Battle Ground, the Qi activity was so terrifying that it was frightening. It was as if the world was about to be overturned.
