The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 296: The Dead River Pass, the Imperial City Destroyed (Two in One)

Wang Zhendong's eyes were extremely solemn. For hundreds of years, no demon had dared to offend the imperial capital.

The most recent incident was six hundred years ago, when a demon king invaded and was slashed by a sword that flew out from Qiandao Palace and fell outside the city.

The demon king's blood turned into a river, which intimidated many covetous demons.

Now there are demons invading and asking the imperial capital for help. Where is that real person?
"Before, there was a big battle in Liangzhou, and then there was a big battle in Youzhou and Qingzhou..."

Wang Zhenfeng's eyes flickered. Although he was not as talented as Wang Zhendong in passing through the Dead River, he was relatively more familiar with the conditions in various states.

"I've long felt that these demons are planning something behind the scenes. That real person never showed up, so there might be something hidden. It seems that these demons are really planning to fight to the death with my Dayu Dynasty!"

Wang Zhenfeng's face turned slightly cold. These demons did not attack the various states anymore, but instead went straight to attack Dayu. Were they planning to go straight to Huanglong and defeat the imperial capital with thunder and lightning?
"Your Majesty has issued an edict, and I must respond to it. I will go there right away." Wang Zhendong said in a deep voice.

He glanced at everyone and said, "Zhenfeng, you stay here to guard Yunzhou and the ancestral temple. Zhenping, you follow me. Yongzhi, you immediately dispatch 300,000 Zhaozi troops and rush to the imperial capital at full speed!"

The only army of the Wang family in public was the ancestor Zhaozi Camp, which had not been disbanded. This was also the dignity given to the Wang family by Emperor Yu.

Wang Yongzhi nodded: "Leave this to me, Uncle Zhendong, you guys have to be careful, this time I'm afraid it will be a catastrophe!"

Wang Zhendong nodded, turned to look at Ksitigarbha Buddha, and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on the merit list, and send a group of assassins to investigate and see what's going on."

Once they die, their names will be removed from the Merit List. Now that they know that Li Hao's name in the Death River Battle Realm is Chong Er, they can also keep track of Li Hao's life and death through the Merit List.

Wang Yongzhi nodded.

Wang Zhendong said nothing more and glanced at Wang Zhenping: "Old Four, follow me."

Wang Zhenping nodded. With the overall situation at hand, he forgot about the lesson his grandson and granddaughter had received previously.

When the two of them left, Wang Yongzhi quickly counted the number of people and deployed troops.

……

Qingzhen died in the river.

As Wang Zhendong and other members of the Wang family left, the town suddenly became empty.

Li Hao, who had been resisting the erosion of the hellish power of the Dead River, breathed a sigh of relief. His spiritual sense quickly enveloped the entire town and he began to search rapidly inside.

Soon, they found hidden figures of the dead, hiding in various places in the town, but there were not many of them.

It was obvious that the Wang family's Dao Realm had simply cleaned it up before.

Suddenly, Li Hao saw a familiar figure in the ancestral hall of the small town.

Old Feng!
The simple yet slightly noble black robe was the outfit that Old Feng wore most often.

At this moment, he was standing at the threshold of the ancestral hall, looking out of the town with a confused look in his eyes, and he seemed to be in a trance, recalling something.

Li Hao was so excited that his soul flew out quickly and teleported towards the ancestral hall.

His original body continued to maintain the Dao domain on the spot to block the erosion of the hell-level Dead River. Although there was no Wang family member here who needed his protection, once he left, the Dead River would erode into the town and accelerate the integration. It would be difficult to guarantee that it would not lead to changes in the clearance conditions or other unknown situations.

At this moment, using the Taiping Dao realm to conquer this underworld-level Death River, many things will be much easier. If it were an ordinary Grandmaster realm, the dead souls in the small town alone would be enough for them to suffer.

Whoosh!
The divine soul with red-gold divine flames landed in front of the ancestral hall.

The divine light was restrained, revealing Li Hao's appearance. He said excitedly: "Master Feng!"

Feng Boping withdrew his gaze from a distance and fell on Li Hao, with a puzzled look in his eyes:

"you are?"

Li Hao was slightly startled, and then immediately realized that this was just a missing soul, and the memory was probably also incomplete. He quickly said:

"It's me, fishing, fish soup, little mouse!"

"You helped me steal a lot of martial arts secrets, and also a royal concubine's silk stockings..."

Li Hao told them one by one the little secrets that Feng Lao had only told them when they went fishing in the past.

Although I don’t know what the conditions for passing the Dead River are, if I can help Old Feng remember him first, it should be helpful in passing the level.

"You also got me a bottle of magic pills that strengthen the body. And one time when you were fishing, you caught a dragon, but it got off the hook. You were so angry that you beat the dragon to death and couldn't sleep for several days..."

Li Hao said quickly.

"Stop, stop, stop for a moment..."

The confusion in Feng Boping's eyes seemed to have disappeared a lot. He quickly raised his hand to stop Li Hao from speaking, feeling a dull pain in his heart.

Decoupling? How can I decouple myself?

This kid is talking nonsense!

Where did these guys come from? Why are you running wild here? Yes, I want to kill these intruders...

Wait, little mouse?

Many thoughts jumped into his mind, Feng Boping rubbed his forehead, feeling a little confused, but soon, some fragmentary fragments flashed through his mind, and he was stunned.

He stared at Li Hao for a long while, his eyes widened: "Hao, Hao'er?!"

Li Hao was somewhat surprised and delighted. He did not expect that Old Feng could really remember him. He nodded repeatedly: "It's me!"

Feng Boping quickly remembered something and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I'll take you out and away from this damn place." Li Hao said.

"you……"

Feng Boping was startled, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked up towards the outside of the town.

When he saw the dark sky outside the town, he seemed to see something and his eyes became a little dazed again.

But soon, he came to his senses and immediately said to Li Hao: "Hurry up, you can't pass the level, that thing is coming!"

"That thing?"

Li Hao looked at the hell-level dead river approaching from behind and said, "Is that the dead river? Old Feng, do you know how to get through it? Let me take you out."

"It's too late. I can't go out. I..."

Feng Boping looked at the hell-level dead river: "That thing is coming for me. It has reflected me. Part of my obsession is imprisoned there. You can't pass it."

Li Hao was shocked. How could that hell-level river of death come from Chongfeng Lao?
Even though Old Feng is very powerful and is at the Four Stages Realm, he is not strong enough to attract the Hell-level Dead River.

After all, the old man who fell in Dragon City was only a Youdu-level dead river.

Moreover, the real obsession behind the Dragon City Death River is the war god Ji Yunge who is in the Wen Dao realm.

"Master Feng, you are right, are you? Is your obsession so deep?"

Li Hao couldn't help but say.

Under normal circumstances, Feng Boping would have been so angry that he rolled his eyes, but at this moment, his eyes fell on the approaching hell-level dead river, and he was a little dazed, muttering to himself:
"I don't know either, but I know that I'm looking for something, something very, very important..."

Li Hao was stunned, and his mind quickly recalled the past.

While fishing by the lake, Old Feng would tell him almost everything during their past interactions, even many secret matters that could get him beheaded, with almost no reservations.

But it seems that I have never heard that he was looking for anything particularly important.

After all, he had already stolen what he was looking for.

"Let's go, I can't find that thing, I can't be cleared."

Feng Boping suddenly retracted his gaze and said to Li Hao: "It's not too late for you to leave now before this place is completely integrated. It's more terrible than you can imagine. Once you fall in, you will never be able to escape..."

"I want to try!"

Li Hao interrupted.

The soul of Ji Yunge would dissipate if it stayed in the River of the Dead for too long. If we give up this time, the missing soul of Old Feng in front of us will be lost forever!

"Why are you so stubborn!"

Feng Boping became anxious when he heard what Li Hao said: "If you delay any longer, you will die too!"

Li Hao said solemnly: "Mr. Feng, please think carefully about what you are looking for. I will help you find it!"

Feng Boping was stunned, looking at his persistent and resolute eyes with a dazed look. Suddenly, he seemed to sense something and looked into the dark light.

At the edge of the Dead River outside the town, the dark power split like a tide, revealing a small path from inside, and behind the path was also a small town.

Just like a replica of a mirror, the border between the two towns is exactly the same.

At this moment, in that small town, a figure wearing a black robe slowly walked over and landed outside the boundary line.

The other person looked at Feng Boping quietly, and Feng Boping's eyes also changed, staring at the other person.

Li Hao noticed that the figure walking towards the intersection was also Old Feng.

However, the expression on his face was rather gloomy, his eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.

Li Hao felt a little disappointed. Old Feng was right. The hell-level Dead River actually reflected his obsession. The conditions for passing the level had changed. This meant that the final outcome of the Qingzhen Dead River could only be integration!
"Do you want to know what his obsession is? If so, come and fish with me and see who can catch the fish first."

On the opposite side, the reflected Feng Boping's obsession suddenly said.

Li Hao's face changed slightly, feeling both strange and familiar.

"What are you fishing for?"

"You'll know when you get here."

Feng Boping sneered with determination.

Li Hao stared into his eyes without saying anything.

Beside him, Feng Boping came to his senses and immediately said, "Don't listen to his nonsense, don't go over there."

Li Hao slowly retracted his gaze, shook his head slightly, and said:
"wait for me."

With just two simple words, he stepped out.

Feng Boping's expression suddenly changed, and he said hurriedly: "You will die!"

"Even if I die, I will take you out!"

Li Hao didn't look back, and walked straight towards Feng Boping outside the town: "You protect me for a while, and I will protect you forever!"

Feng Boping was stunned and stood there, watching the young man's soul flying away.

Outside the town, Feng Boping in the hell-level Dead River Town was obsessed with the sneer on his face, but he restrained it a little and stared at Li Hao closely.

Li Hao walked to the town's border and asked, "What are you fishing for?"

"Fishing for a life!"

"Life?"

Li Hao's face turned slightly cold: "You don't want to say it's my life, do you?"

"Yes and no."

Feng Boping said in a cold voice, "Once you catch it, you can survive. If you can't catch it, you can't even get out now!"

Li Hao narrowed his eyes, and his body in the distance was still maintaining the Dao domain, resisting the invasion.

Although he didn't take the token to try, he knew that the Dead River must have undergone another change and the exit might have been moved.

After all, it was already difficult to open the exit before, and at this moment, except for the place blocked by his physical body, the hell-level dead river in other parts of the town has been approaching and extending, and the degree of fusion is deepening.

"Then come on."

Things have come to this point, there is no turning back, and Li Hao didn't waste any words.

"You are so brave! Aren't you worried that I will cheat you?" Feng Boping asked with determination.

“I’m worried, but I don’t have a choice.”

Li Hao said.

Feng Boping insisted: "But you can choose to escape by yourself. You still had hope just now."

"You also said it was just now. Since it's gone now, stop talking nonsense!"

Feng Boping didn't say anything more and said coldly: "Since you are determined to die, then come over."

Li Hao took a step forward, ready to explode at any time, transforming his soul into the Dharma image of heaven and earth. However, the surrounding dark forces did not invade him.

Feng Boping's obsessed eyes seemed to shrink slightly. Obviously, he did not expect that Li Hao could be so decisive in the face of life and death.

"Tell me, how do you fish?"

Li Hao said in a cold voice while being alert to attacks from all around.

Feng Boping was silent, and after a while he said, "You used your sincerity as bait to catch a life. You have already caught your own life. You win."

"what?"

Li Hao was slightly stunned.

Feng Boping stared at Li Hao with obsession and said slowly: "This is his obsession. He is looking for a true heart. This is the most precious thing in the world, and it is something he cannot steal!"

Li Hao was stunned and asked in surprise: "So, I have passed the level now?"

After clearing the Dead River twice before, Li Hao had gained some experience. The requirements for clearing the Dead River were varied.

The first time Fengshan and Quhe met, he painted a picture himself and moved the lousy painter to tears, and he passed the level directly. The key should be to relieve his lovesickness.

The Dead River in Longcheng represents the idea of ​​making the whole world your home. It breaks down Ji Yunge's obsession and pulls him out of the influence of the Dead River.

Now, in the Dead River where Old Feng is imprisoned, there is actually a true heart.

These seem to have little to do with martial arts and realm. It is no wonder that the Wang family has studied the Dead River for many years, but the number of levels they have passed is very small.

After all, if it weren't for the chance encounter, if someone else came to Feng Lao's dead river, they would really be helpless.

Similarly, if you are a stranger to Feng Laosu, you will not be able to pass the level.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, the dark power surged around Feng Boping's body, entwining him like mist.

His expression changed slightly, and silver light suddenly burst out of his eyes, emitting a vast and majestic aura.

The breath made Li Hao's pupils shrink. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he actually felt a trace of the holy power that he felt on the holy bones of the Ji family!
"Want to abandon me? It's too late!"

A cold light flashed in Feng Boping's obsessed eyes, and the silver light enveloped his own dark powers. These powers seemed to be withdrawn from him, but were bound by his silver light.

At the same time, the small town reflected behind it suddenly collapsed and became distorted.

The environment was no longer the same as the Qingzhen Dead River, but it changed into a hideous cave with debris everywhere, and then into a plain covered with weapons and corpses.

"Kid, get out of here."

Feng Boping suddenly said to Li Hao.

Li Hao stared at him and retreated quickly.

He seemed to realize what was happening.

If Feng Lao's obsession is genuine, then if he resolves it himself, it is not just the Qingzhen Dead River that will be cleared.

The hellish Dead River that reflected it was also affected by this!
Will we clear the customs together?
Li Hao couldn't help but think, although it felt a little unbelievable, he still had some anticipation.

But soon, Li Hao found that he was overthinking. After he left, the terrain and the town reflected outside the town quickly collapsed and turned into an ancient road.

The ancient road was shrouded in black fog, and it was extremely long, stretching to a very distant place with no end in sight.

But when Li Hao saw this ancient road, he felt a creepy feeling, which was even more terrifying than seeing the town reflected earlier.

There are bones piled up on the ancient road, as if there have been endless years, and it is desolate.

"town!"

In the black fog, Feng Boping's obsessive voice was heard. It was exceptionally cold and very different from what Li Hao usually heard.

The chaotically surging fog suddenly slowed down, as if restrained by a force.

"Goodbye, child..."

In the thick fog, Feng Boping's persistent voice was heard, but it quickly dissipated.

At the same time, the thick fog dissipated.

In front of Li Hao, a hint of the Dead River jumped out:

[Permanently reduce 'Silent Dao Dead River' by 10%, eliminate the 'Reflection' rule, and reward merits! ]

Li Hao was slightly stunned. Ten thousand merits?
According to the Wang family's speculation, if the hell-level Death River is destroyed, they can get 10,000 merits, but now, they can't even destroy it.

But permanent cuts?
Li Hao looked at the silent ancient road and suddenly realized that the reflecting rule was gone, and it disappeared forever. The power of the Dead River had weakened a little.

I just passed the level with the help of the obsession reflected by the rules.

However, this hell-level Jidao Muhe seemed to be worried that his clearance would affect Muhe as a whole, so he removed the reflection rules, making his clearance invalid and only causing a weakening.

Does this dead river itself have consciousness?

Li Hao took a deep look, and immediately saw that the other forces surrounding Qingzhenmu River were rapidly dissipating.

These forces are all dominated by the reflection rules. Now that the reflection rules are invalid, these forces have also disappeared.

Li Hao turned his head and saw Feng Lao's figure flying towards him.

"You silly boy, you are really impulsive."

Feng Boping looked at Li Hao, his eyes full of pity.

Li Hao smiled and saw the prompt of the Dead River pop up again in front of him. The Dead River in Qingzhen in front of him had been cleared!
Moreover, the reward for clearing the Qingzhenmu River was not 10,000 merits, but 20,000!

The tips are as follows:

Congratulations, Chonger, you have cleared the Qingzhenmuhe (pollution) level.

The reward is 20,000 merits.

Adding the previous 10,000 merits, Li Hao earned a total of 30,000 merits on this trip!

You know, Wang Zhendong has been in the river for many years and has only recently accumulated ten thousand merits!
If you just destroy this underworld-level dead river, you can only get 100 merit points.

Li Hao glanced at him, then looked at Old Feng and grinned:

"Master Feng, we can go home now."

Feng Boping looked at him with a complicated expression, "Yes, I can go home..."

……

At the same time, in Dayuzhou, in the Holy Capital Imperial City.

Wailing and crying sounds were heard everywhere, and the ground was covered with blood and corpses.

The majestic imperial city that had stood for thousands of years was now stained red with blood. In the moat surrounding the city, the originally clear water had turned blood red, and there were corpses of soldiers in sophisticated armor and demons floating in it.

The top of the city wall had been broken and a huge gap had been torn in it.

In the sky, figures were fleeing, but they were chased and brutally torn apart by the demon king.

Many buildings in the city were destroyed and burned, the bodies of civilians were scattered all over the ground, the casualties were heavy, and the whole city was wailing!
This most solid city in the world has the most powerful magic formation in the world, the Xuantian Divine Emperor Formation!

But at this moment, the formation had already been broken.

However, the magic circle was not broken by the demon king outside, but by several generals of the Chen family stationed in the imperial city, who worked together from inside and outside and relied on relationships that had been bribed in advance. In addition, the Chen family also had people working in the Sitianjian who were familiar with the famous Xuantian Divine Emperor Formation, and they destroyed its formation pattern, making it unusable.

That’s right, the Chen family, one of the five great generals’ families, which has always maintained a peaceful attitude towards the world, has rebelled at this moment!
Without the protection of the magic circle, the whole city was exposed to the demons. Although there were many soldiers stationed in the city and a million troops were stationed there all year round, without the protection of the magic circle, the demons attacked unscrupulously, and soon in the fighting, the aftermath of the battle spread to all parts of the city, causing large-scale casualties.

As soon as the attack occurred, the imperial city used the most urgent eight flags to send orders to all parties and call for reinforcements.

But although the speed of the Eight Direction Flags was fast, the speed at which the Imperial City fell was even faster.

Many elderly people who had been living in seclusion in the imperial city also showed up and took action. The number of them reached more than thirty, which was shocking.

But they were facing a black-robed young man in the Wen Dao realm and a graceful woman with purple patterns. Before the battle lasted long, they were killed one after another, and only a few were left to flee.

The two young men in black robes were killing people everywhere carelessly, and at the same time, they asked the elders of various demon forces who were summoned to clear out the human race in the city and kill them all.

The two of them slaughtered people wantonly in the city, without any top force to restrain them, as if they were having fun.

At this moment, the entire imperial city was in ruins, and many buildings in the majestic imperial palace were also broken.

There was also the Xuantian Divine Emperor Formation in this imperial palace, but this time it was destroyed by a violent attack.

The virtual image of the God Emperor condensed by the magic circle was quickly torn apart before the battle lasted long, and the magic circle shattered.

Bang!Bang!
The bodies of the two old men who were hiding and fleeing suddenly exploded.

The young man in black robe flew over, took a glance, picked it up casually, and put it into his own space, preparing to take it back as a snack.

Then, he looked towards the top of the imperial palace, his eyes becoming solemn and fearful.

There were bursts of fierce fighting sounds, strange phenomena in the air, and howling wind, rain, thunder and lightning. That was the battlefield of the Tao and Fa realm, where a word gave birth to all things and the words were followed by laws. It was not a place that those who heard the Tao and were real people could easily set foot in.

At this moment, the ones fighting there were not the old Demon Sheep Venerable holding a cane, but five or six young figures.

They attacked casually, even chatting and teasing each other, but their attacks were extremely fierce and set off a terrifying battle.

Bang!
A figure rushed out and landed on the square, his Taoist robe torn, looking miserable and miserable.

His body was covered in blood, staining his Taoist robe red.

He got up from the ground, but as a young man loudly read out the word "Zhen", the old Taoist's body fell to the ground again. The ground beneath him quickly cracked and spread in all directions like a spider web.

Fighting one against six, his body was almost broken.

"Real person..."

Next to the square, dozens of figures stood there. They had no injuries on their bodies, but they dared not move.

Someone had tried to fight back before, but his body exploded after just one word from one of the young men.

He didn't even have the chance to defy fate, and even his soul couldn't escape, and he died instantly.

Others continued to fight desperately, but as the next few words were spoken, all those who tried to resist, without exception, had their bodies exploded.

There are even top hidden masters of the Taiping Dao realm among them!
Such a huge gap made them all deeply realize the terrifying gap between the Sili Realm and the Wen Dao Realm.

Despair enveloped everyone, and they could only place their hope on that real person.

Earlier, these playful young men had said that they would let a real person play with them, and that if they could survive one move, one of them would be spared.

These extremely terrifying guys who appeared out of nowhere treated this massacre as fun!
However, now, the real man took action, and although the battle was fierce, he was clearly at a disadvantage. Not only did he fail to kill any of them, he seemed to have been completely defeated at this moment.

Despair, fear, sadness, unwillingness and other emotions shrouded everyone's face.

This divine dynasty had stood for thousands of years, yet this most majestic and sacred place was easily entered by these people and destroyed and trampled on at will.

However, in the face of absolute power, they didn't even have the ability to resist.

Just like ants working hard, suddenly one day, a big foot comes down without warning and crushes all their efforts and hard work into ashes!
Ants!

Everyone felt like an ant.

"Is our Great Yu Dynasty...going to perish?"

All the people standing in the square were reinforcements who came here from all directions but were captured here.

Xia Linglong, Xia Yuanwu, Li Muxiu and others were all there.

The Wang family and others have not arrived yet because they are the farthest away from the imperial capital.

When Xia Linglong and others arrived, they thought it would be a confrontation battle that relied on magic arrays to block the enemy, but as soon as they arrived, they saw the tragic scene of the entire city.

In front of these six terrifying young men and women, the army and the imperial guards in the city were easily slaughtered, the magic array was directly torn apart, and in less than half a day, they captured the imperial palace.

The strength and foundation they had accumulated bit by bit over the years seemed meaningless in front of these six terrifying young men and women.

Next to the battlefield, the Demon Sheep Lord holding a cane was also afraid.

Since the Son of God said he was going to kill the young man last time, he returned without telling them the result and just asked them to wait.

Then today, the other party brought six killing gods, all of whom were terrifying monsters.

But he understood that the Son of God must have paid a huge price. Although the current situation was under control, he saw from the Son of God's expression that he did not seem happy.
