Zongman: This Holy Lord just wants friendly communication

Jiang Shi Nian snorted coldly and couldn't help but think in his heart, who on earth was that person? How dare he challenge his dignity and play tricks in front of him!

The enemy had retreated, and he no longer had the interest to appreciate the murals around him. Those mysterious murals that had fascinated him in the past now looked like old paper that had lost its color. He walked forward at a fast pace. The passage was dark and long, just like the throat of a giant beast.

Jiang Shi Nian used the power of the rabbit talisman and the chicken talisman. His body was as fast as lightning and instantly exceeded the speed of sound. He broke through all obstacles along the way and reached the end of the cave as if he was in an empty space.

Chapter 126 The Dark Wizard in Yingquan

Suddenly, the scene in front of my eyes becomes bright. A clear spring stands there, like the eyes of the earth, with rippling waves and mist rising up. It is as if I have accidentally entered a fairyland, with light smoke curling around, like a dream.

Just taking a light breath, the whole body feels relaxed, as if the meridians in the body are washed by the spiritual energy, and the whole body seems to be glowing and ascending to heaven.

The spring is only ten feet in radius, but it is the same size as a pool that condenses divine objects, and it exudes a mysterious aura.

Above the clear spring, twelve exquisitely designed golden palaces, which seemed to be several times smaller in size, were connected together into a strange pattern by a star-studded magic circle.

The palace may seem small, but upon closer inspection it reveals its endless grandeur, like a miniature of the universe.

Through the mist, you can see many patterns of flowers, birds, fish, insects, ancient sacrifices, the sun, the moon, the stars, strange creatures, rare divine treasures, etc. carved on the surrounding cave walls. It is like a living history book, quietly telling the past years.

It was extremely quiet here. The oppressive force all around had completely dissipated. The images carved on the cave walls had become blurred and indistinguishable, as if time had quietly erased past memories.

"Huh?" Jiang Shi Nian's eyes suddenly focused, and he saw a point of black light by the spring, wrapped in layers of thick black air, like an elf imprisoned in a dark cage.

"What is this? Why is it surrounded by black air?" Jiang Shinian was puzzled. He raised his hand and waved it. The black light fell steadily on his palm, as if he was holding an unknown destiny.

"There is actually a breath of life?" He concentrated his mind slightly, and used the power of the horse talisman to sense it carefully. His heart was full of surprise, as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Shuashua", the black light seemed to sense something and swayed gently, as if greeting Jiang Shinian, revealing a bit of playfulness.

"It can still move?" Jiang Shinian became more and more curious. He stretched out his dragon claws and gently poked the mysterious black light, as if knocking on a door leading to a mysterious world.

"Buzz!"

A strange buzzing sound suddenly sounded, as if the sound of an ancient bell was echoing in a quiet place, ethereal and mysterious.

I saw the black light spot that was tightly shrouded by thick black air, trembling slightly like a mysterious elf that was awakened.

Immediately, a faint light slowly bloomed from it, just like a candle struggling to shine in the dark night.

Although the light was dim, it revealed a tenacity, trying its best to dispel the darkness around it.

And strange things happened one after another.

At the same time, this ball of black light seemed to break free from some invisible restraints and slowly floated up, as light as willow catkins in the wind.

It spun slowly in the air, with black air surging around it like ink, and then it began to slowly change its shape, as if a pair of invisible hands were carefully carving it. This strange scene was so fascinating that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

"Ok?"

Jiang Shi Nian was stunned. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and his originally stern face also showed a bit of astonishment.

He really didn't expect that this inconspicuous black light seemed to have a soul and it transformed into a small and exquisite human figure in an instant.

The figure was only the size of a palm, emitting a dark light all over, but its outline was lifelike, like a miniature version of a night elf, exuding a mysterious aura.

"It seems..."

Jiang Shi Nian pondered in his heart, but before he could say anything, the sheep talisman in his body seemed to sense the same breath and suddenly trembled slightly, as if sending out a secret signal.

He concentrated his mind and sensed it carefully. After a moment, he said with certainty, "It is the power of the soul."

This voice in the quiet cave carried a sense of sudden enlightenment.

"who are you?"

The light spot that turned into a black human-shaped light was the first to break the silence. A clear and tender voice came out, like a child asking a question in ignorance, but it shocked Jiang Shinian's heart.

"who am I?"

Jiang Shi Nian's mouth corners turned up, revealing a slightly playful smile. Normally, he always looked down on others and questioned them.

He found it novel that he was the host this time.

However, at this moment, the black light figure was obviously unaware of the situation. It was a bit rash to ask such a direct question in front of the Saint Lord, who was so powerful.

"I am the Holy Lord. You are probably some dark wizard. Why have you fallen to this point?"

Jiang Shi Nian raised his eyebrows, his eyes narrowed into dangerous slits, his voice was low but revealed unquestionable majesty, as if the surface of a frozen lake on a cold night, the air around him became a little colder.

Hearing this, the ball of light became excited instantly like a lit powder keg, and its body trembled slightly.

"You...you are one of the eight demons, the ruler of the world, the master of fire, the immortal Lord?"

There was an undisguised respect and passion in his words; the previous ignorance and immaturity instantly dissipated, replaced by awe.

Such a sudden change.

This made Jiang Shinian feel a little uncomfortable for a moment, as if his body was surrounded by scorching flames, burning him all over.

"I'm......"

The light seemed to freeze for a moment, like an old gear turning with difficulty, and then gradually fell into memories, and the tone became distant and long.

"I am a dark wizard who was assassinated by a righteous wizard two thousand years ago. Although I was a dark wizard back then, I only had a yearning and admiration for the eight demons. I usually abide by the bottom line and have almost never done anything to harm others."

Having said this, his figure dimmed slightly, as if shrouded in sorrow.

"However, the righteous mage who was against me at that time had a vicious mind. He first deceived me with sweet words, and when I was overjoyed to find Yingquan, he took advantage of my unpreparedness and suddenly attacked me. The fierce blow was like a deadly arrow, which seriously injured me in an instant."

"But I was a genius in my time after all. Even after this surprise attack, my magical power is still deep. Although that person succeeded in the sneak attack, he underestimated my strength. I fought back desperately, and he was careless for a moment and was injured by me."

At this point, black air surged around the human-shaped black light, as if recreating the brutal battle of that year.

"Afterwards, we were locked in a life-and-death battle. The situation was extremely brutal. In the end, I used up my last bit of strength and killed that person, but I was also seriously injured. I turned into a remnant soul, floating in the world."

"In the end, I still relied on a treasure to hide all my energy, and survived like a snail hiding in its shell, entangled with Yingquan. Only by absorbing some of Yingquan's power could I survive until now in the torrent of time."

"It's just that during this long period of time, I spent most of the time in a deep sleep, like an animal hibernating in winter, just to preserve a glimmer of life."

Having said this, he looked around, his eyes full of loneliness and helplessness.

"But now it seems that my treasure has been erased by time, or it may have encountered an inexplicable accident and accidentally fell into Yingquan. Now only this lonely soul is left, wandering without a place to go."

Jiang Shi Nian stared at the human-shaped black light, but in just a few words, he became dimmer and dimmer, and his figure was illusory and ethereal, like a candle in the wind, which could be blown out at any time and dissipated in this vast world.

Chapter 127 Dong Tianbao?

Jiang Shi Nian's eyes flashed, and he made a prompt decision to directly use the power of the horse talisman.

In an instant, a green light bloomed from his fingertips, like new green sprouting from the ground in spring, full of vitality. This green light was like a moving silk thread, slowly pouring into the human-shaped black light.

Suddenly, the light became bright and dazzling, and the black light seemed to be injected with the essence of the soul and condensed a bit. The originally illusory light and shadow now looked more like a real human figure, the facial features gradually became clear, and the body seemed to have a substantial texture, no longer as ethereal as before.

Then, he activated the sheep talisman, and a hazy yellow light came out, as if the warm sun was shining, and combined with the power of the horse talisman, it gently enveloped the figure again.

After a while, the human-shaped ball of light - which could now be clearly called a soul - began to tremble violently, as if it had been reborn. In the blink of an eye, it had become completely solid. Although the black air around it was still thick, it exuded a calm aura.

The black wizard's voice trembled, full of gratitude: "Thank you... Thank you! Great Lord, if you don't mind, please accept me as your servant. I will do my best to go through fire and water for you!"

His words were earnest, like a drowning man grasping at a life-saving straw, and his eyes were full of devout expectation.

Jiang Shi Nian nodded slightly, thinking to himself, he didn't expect that this ball of black light was actually the remnant of an ancient method from two thousand years ago, and it was really not easy for it to survive until now.

Accepting him would be like having an extra helper in the future, and would undoubtedly be a key bargaining chip in the tough battle to subdue Daolong.

"Just follow me from now on. What's your name?" Jiang Shinian said lightly, his voice was calm but revealed an irresistible aura.

"My name is......"

The man's brain seemed to be stuck for a moment, his eyes were blank, and he tried hard to search in his broken memories.

"My name is... Dong Tianbao!"

After thinking for a moment, Dong Tianbao seemed to regain his former courage and spoke in a decisive tone with a hint of certainty.

"Dong Tianbao? He's from that ancient country in the East?"

Jiang Shi Nian raised his eyebrows and asked, a hint of inquiry flashing in his eyes.

Why does this name sound familiar?

"Yes, master." Dong Tianbao responded respectfully, bowing slightly and showing full courtesy.

"Okay, Dong Tianbao, you have been attached to Yingquan for so long, what do you know about this stream?"

Jiang Shinian crossed his arms across his chest, his eyes fixed on Dong Tianbao, not missing a single change in expression on his face.

"Master, this stream from Guixu has infinite vitality, just like the pulse of the earth, constantly nourishing all things around it, and it also has the ability to trap enemies, just like an invisible cage. Once you are trapped, it is difficult to escape."

"To become the master of Yingquan, no one can enter or leave without the permission of an extraordinary person like the master. It is like the emperor's palace, with strict access control."

Dong Tianbao spoke slowly and steadily with a solemn expression.

"Well, as far as you know, how can one become the master of Yingquan?" Jiang Shinian asked, with a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

"I have lived for two thousand years with the help of Yingquan, and I have some experience on how to become the master of Yingquan. As long as you inject the most original black energy and add a drop of essence and blood, you can refine Yingquan, just like using a key to open a lock, and everything will come naturally." Dong Tianbao told the truth with a firm tone.

Jiang Shi Nian's brows were furrowed into a 川 character, his face full of suspicion: "That's it?"

In his opinion, how could the method of refining such a rare treasure be so simple? The suspicious nature of the evil dragon made him full of suspicion.

"Yes Master, that's it."

Dong Tianbao quickly responded: "Because you are one of the eight demons and possess the purest black energy, you are qualified to refine Yingquan in this way. Even if others know the method, they are unable to do it."

"Ah."

Jiang Shi Nian responded calmly, temporarily suppressing his doubts.

"Have you seen a woman here?"

The image of the beautiful yet mysterious woman suddenly emerged in Jiang Shinian's mind, and his tone unconsciously became a little colder.

"Woman?" Dong Tianbao looked thoughtful and shook his head after a moment.

"I was asleep most of the time. Yingquan gave me a glimmer of hope, but it could only keep me alive. After all, it is not the secret realm of the Lord of Life. I can only draw a little vitality with the help of my treasure. I know very little about the outside world."

"Yeah." Jiang Shi Nian responded indifferently again, thinking in his mind that no matter what, he decided to give it a try first.

It had already taken him a lot of time to come here to collect Yingquan and the Twelve Golden Palaces. Now he had many complicated matters to deal with, like a tangled mess that needed to be sorted out. He had no time to delay any further.

Jiang Shi Nian waved his dragon claws.

In an instant, a mass of extremely dense black air appeared like a dark cloud, swirling and lingering.
