The True Lord has arrived

Chapter 261 Ji Xuanyuan

Zhou Yan and the others, riding on the white jade lion cat, quickly returned to the mountain where Ge Lang and the others were temporarily staying. The smoke from cooking in the morning mixed with the clouds swirling in the green mountains, bringing peace to their hearts.

Ge Lang and the others prepared food unique to the Sichuan region. Shen Fei and Xu Zhilan also helped out. After Zhou Yan and the others returned, Ge Lang carried a wooden plate with some food on it and delivered it to them.

Zhou Yan thanked him, while Kai Ming, who was starving, wolfed down his food.

Zhou Yan glanced at the scholar in the blue robe:
"...Do you need to eat human food?"

"I'm not hungry, but..."

Kaiming's mouth was stuffed full of food; he moved around a bit, and finally swallowed it.

"greedy!"

Zhou Yan was speechless. On the palm of his hand, a jade talisman slowly rotated. It was the Ji Xuanyuan Jade Talisman. It seemed that Zhou Yan's actions had completed a spiritual ritual of the Yanhuang lineage, and the Ji Xuanyuan Jade Talisman had awakened.

However, it was obvious that the jade talisman did not demonstrate any extraordinary power.

Kaiming, munching on a pastry, said, "Without a doubt, this jade talisman has just awakened and is also hungry. After all, it was sealed for hundreds of years with its vital energy exhausted, so it's not so easy to take it out and use it."

This is Zhuge Liang's spoils of war. Since he fought and killed that generation of "historians", the Ji Xuanyuan Jade Talisman must have been used by the enemy before, and it is normal for its vitality to be depleted.

"However... history, the history of that generation."

"Besides him, there are two others whose strength is at least roughly the same."

"There are 144 agents under Shi's command alone."

"We still don't know if there are other organizational structures beneath these agents..."

The enemy numbers are enormous, but if you spread that number across the vast land of Yanhuang, it doesn't seem so many, nor so dense. Of the 144 agents, several had to be stationed at key points.

In ordinary places, perhaps even a prefecture or county might not have many such places.

Given this, it's no wonder they chose to support such a small number of powerful figures who could influence the world. Ding Liu mentioned innate metal and wood elements before his death, suggesting that An Lushan was also inextricably linked to them.

They carved through the Three Gorges and struck Sichuan with their elbows.

Let this area of ​​a thousand miles be turned into a vast swamp.

Millions of ordinary people were sacrificed.

I don't know how far this matter has progressed, but in any case, it can't be delayed any longer and we need to take immediate action.

With a thought, Zhou Yan noticed two more blank jade talismans appearing. These two talismans had cracks on them and emitted a hazy white light. They were the spoils of war from his killing of Bing San and Ding Liu.

In some ways, the two blank jade talismans are not as effective as the Ji Xuanyuan jade talisman. At least the origin of the Ji Xuanyuan jade talisman is clear, and it has already awakened. It is highly likely that it is just lacking in vital energy and cannot be used.

Who exactly did these two jade talismans come from? Which ancient hero did they belong to?
Zhou Yan was completely in the dark.

"...According to them, the Bai Ze Book is a fake, so surely these two jade talismans are also fakes, or perhaps replicas?"

Zhou Yan seemed to be deep in thought. He rested his chin on one hand and moved the five fingers of his other hand in a rhythmic motion, as if tossing and catching some kind of toy. The three jade talismans flowed and changed between his fingers.

Over there, Kaiming was teasing the cat. Although he himself was also a nine-headed human-faced cat, his arm was being bitten by the lion cat, and he was baring his teeth and howling. Zhou Yan chuckled, and the jade talisman in his hand lost its balance and collided with each other, suddenly emitting light.

"Um?!!"

Zhou Yan was stunned to see the two jade talismans shatter simultaneously, turning into countless fine golden dust particles, which were swallowed up by Ji Xuanyuan's jade talisman like a whale sucking in water. The dim Yellow Emperor totem patterns on the jade talisman lit up for a moment.

It let out a deep, majestic roar, as if from ancient times.

It was like finally having a hearty meal.

Ji Xuanyuan Jade Talisman glowed, about to awaken, when a deep, solemn, and ancient voice rang out: "You are one of us, the descendants of Yan and Huang..."

"Kneel down, kneel down, shout!"

"Your predecessor..."

The Yellow Emperor is about to awaken!

But I always felt that this old guy was putting on an act.

At that very instant, a burst of crimson light suddenly erupted from Zhou Yan's body.

This surge of crimson battle intent coalesced into a gigantic hand that descended from the sky, clenched its fist without hesitation, and slammed it hard into the face of the humanoid stream of light emitted by Ji Xuanyuan Yufu.

boom! ! !
There was a vague feeling that some kind of tooth had been knocked out.

Look me in the eye, Ji Xuanyuan!!!

A battle roar, a fusion of murderous intent and fighting spirit, echoed through the air.

Having just swallowed two jade talismans, the Ji Xuanyuan Jade Talisman that had just emerged was suddenly sent back to its original state. It seemed that a wisp of Emperor Xuanyuan's will had just awakened when it was knocked back to sleep by a punch from the remnant Chi You battle spirit on Zhou Yan's body.

At the same time, Ji Xuanyuan's jade talisman burst forth with light, seemingly transforming into another fist, which struck Zhou Yan's battle spirit soul in a backhand strike.

The last two ripples were like the opposing forces of yin and yang.

They all disappeared.

Our ancestors had such good sleep!
Fall down and go to sleep.

Kaiming immediately leaned closer, his eyes wide, staring at the jade talisman along with Zhou Yan and the lion cat: "This is... a jade talisman from these counterfeit Bai Ze books. Although it's unusable, it can be used to restore Ji Xuanyuan's jade talisman?"

"Then the first thing those two old guys did after waking up was to fight each other."

"Is she asleep again?"

"Wait, are these two really that bad off?"

"Why not?"

"These two guys are arch-enemies."

"An enemy is an enemy; enemies can never become friends."

"........."

Zhou Yan's lips twitched: "However, at least it's a good thing."

“They won’t be dragged back for special training by these two anytime soon.” Kaiming glanced at him, not saying that Ji Xuanyuan and Chi You were actually quite cunning and strategists. These two old guys might just be putting on an act; their auras had just spontaneously intersected.

You'd better pray that next time you enter the Battle Space, you won't be facing two guys.

A sworn enemy is indeed a sworn enemy; they can never become friends.

However, they can team up to beat up a third party.

Should we remind him...?

No, forget it.

It looks like it's going to be really, really interesting.

An open-minded smile appeared on his lips, and his eyes became extremely bright, with round and large pupils.

Kaiming coughed lightly, pretending not to have noticed anything, and seemed lost in thought:
"Could it be that the jade talismans in these counterfeit Bai Ze books were extracted from these genuine jade talismans and then engraved using some method? So, after being broken, they can be used to restore the jade talisman in your hand?"

He examined the Ji Xuanyuan Jade Talisman in Zhou Yan's hand.

"Hmm, it should be able to recover after absorbing a few more counterfeit jade talismans."

"Speaking of which, what's the difference between the two fake Bai Ze books you absorbed?"

Zhou Yan sensed the changes within his body. The two counterfeit Bai Ze books had already been absorbed by his jade scroll. If there was any change, it was that the weight of the jade scroll seemed to have become slightly heavier than before.

Apart from that, nothing has changed.

He thought for a moment and said, "It can be considered as replenishing a trace of vital energy."

After pondering for a long time, Kaiming said, "Alright, I won't ask you about the specific reasons and changes. My experience with Fuxi has taught me that sometimes knowing too much can get you hung on a tree."

Zhou Yan couldn't help but want to complain in his heart.

He is himself, and Fuxi is Fuxi.

How could Lord Zhou be the same as Emperor Fuxi?

Kaiming seemed to know what he was thinking, but he just glanced at him with a complicated look and clicked his tongue.

Zhou Yan was still curious and asked, "What if you don't know anything?"

Kaiming said quietly, "Then you won't even have the chance to be hung on a tree."

"For example, those guys he sold out."

Zhou Yan: "…………"

Knowing too much is bad, knowing too little is bad too. What kind of indescribable creation is this?
Kaiming said, "However, I have a general idea of ​​your current situation. Of course, it's just a guess. Since they have counterfeit items that you can absorb, it means you have something similar in your possession."

“I have a precious seal here.”

The scene that once appeared before the ancient Yanhuang lineage, including Emperor Yan, Emperor Xuanyuan, and Emperor Yao, reappeared. The ancestral grandfather of the Yanhuang lineage, the imperial tutor, and the immortal who would randomly spawn by the roadside, Kunlun Kaiming Chisongzi, reached into his sleeve and pulled out a stone fragment.

There seemed to be some ancient patterns written on it.

"Ahem, sorry, this thing is a bit old."

Then, with a shake of his hand, the stone fragment transformed into a bamboo scroll. After thinking for a moment, he realized that this thing seemed somewhat outdated, so he finally turned it into a book and tossed it to Zhou Yan, saying, "Here, take it."

"what is this?"

Kaiming said, "Since you can absorb the fake Bai Ze Book, you must either be of the same origin as it or be able to control it. The fake Bai Ze Book can drive the power of the jade talisman. It is undoubtedly a treasure, and its vital energy should not be wasted."

"What I'm giving you is the Kunlun Treasure Seal, which contains some basic Kunlun divine system techniques. It can gather the vital energy of the fake Bai Ze Book and refine your own treasure. See for yourself if you can learn it."

Zhou Yan flipped through the scroll and found some rather mysterious runes on it. After thinking for a moment, he took out a gourd belonging to the Wood De Lord from his bundle and tossed it to Kaiming, saying, "I also have something for you here..."

The scholar in the blue robe, with a touch of pride and composure, laughed heartily:

"Hahaha, kid, I didn't expect you to be so polite, to know the principle of reciprocity. However, I appreciate your kindness, but do you know who I am?!"

"Kunlun is enlightened!"

“You ordinary objects are not worthy of my attention.”

"However, cough cough, since you've already brought it here, let me see what's going on."

Kaiming casually opened the gourd and peeked inside.

Kaiming's expression was blank.

Upon seeing the soul of a peacock imprisoned inside, having been confined in Mu Degong's gourd for so long, the peacock had long since fainted. Kaiming sensed an aura of the same origin as his own and realized something, exclaiming, "Where did this bird come from?!"

"wrong!"

"This is my head?!"

Kaiming stared blankly at the young Taoist priest over there:
How come you have my head?

"Where's my bird?!"

"...Yes, he turned into a peacock. He was too flamboyant. I killed him."

"You killed my bird?!"

Where is my brain essence?

Zhou Yan, eyes downcast and mind focused, said, "I've refined it."

enlightened:"………………"

"You killed my bird and then used it to refine my blood?!"

Zhou Yan remained silent, feeling somewhat guilty. When he killed the peacock, he had no idea that Kai Ming was still alive and well. At that time, in order to improve his strength, he had indeed refined a drop of Kai Ming's essence blood.

Both morally and logically, he felt ashamed before Kaiming.

Just as Zhou Yan was trying to figure out how to comfort this Kunlun deity, Kaiming stared at Zhou Yan, murmured something, seemed to understand, and then spoke up confidently and solemnly:
"Call daddy!"
