2165 The scapegoat, Firerock forefather (1)
If they were in another place, the patriarchs of the megacity might not have given in.
However, the forbidden mountain range was different. One couldn’t advance rashly and there was no way to retreat. Anyone would be a trapped beast.
If Tang Zhen was forced into a corner, at most, it would be a life and death struggle, and no one would be able to leave alive.
The old ancestor, who was seriously injured by Tang Zhen earlier, revealed a struggling expression at this moment. Soon after, he softly sighed.
“Forget it, I will no longer pursue this matter.”
From this moment on, there would no longer be anyone who would stand up for him, much less attempt to kill Tang Zhen.
Even if he was holding in his anger, he could only suppress it in his heart. He definitely could not continue to provoke Tang Zhen, this powder keg.
If they continued to be unforgiving, the patriarchs of the megacity might turn hostile and turn from allies to enemies.
Without the support of those old ancestors, it would be as easy as turning his hand if Tang Zhen wanted to kill him.
Even if he was killed, no one would stand up for him.
“That would be for the best!”
Seeing that the tense situation had been alleviated, the old ancestor of the wind Thunder City walked in front of Tang Zhen and performed a bow that was commonly used among martial artists.
“Sir Tang Zhen, there’s a so-called priority. Everyone’s goal is to go to the temple of abstinence, so we can put aside our grudges for the time being.
I suggest that we work together for the time being and think of a way to get to the temple of forbidden extinction. What do you think?”
Tang Zhen nodded his head. The battle blade in his hand suddenly disappeared. At the same time, he swept a glance at the old ancestors in the surroundings.
“Please forgive this Tang’s bluntness, but I really don’t trust anyone here. It’s better for us to act on our own.”
Upon hearing Tang Zhen’s reply, the old ancestor of wind Thunder City smiled faintly while the other old ancestors of the megacity city revealed looks of disdain.
From their point of view, Tang Zhen did not know how to appreciate favors.
since you don’t trust us, I won’t force you. I just hope that everyone will continue to exercise restraint in the coming time.
At the same time, the old ancestor of the wind Thunder City turned his head and looked around with an inquiring expression.
No one objected, so it was considered an agreement.
The patriarchs of the megacity did not want to waste too much time either. No one knew how long the divine Hall of abstinence would be open for. Their top priority was to reach the summit as soon as possible.
If he missed this chance, who knew when the next forbidden extinction Hall would open?
The heart of the old ancestor of the windthunder city was beating like a drum. This was what he was most concerned about.
Although he had caught a glimpse of someone on the heavenly Ascension platform, he still couldn’t confirm it. Maybe he was seeing things.
“He’s already heading straight for the divine Hall through a tunnel of light. He shouldn’t be far from the divine Hall now, right?”
Tang Zhen spoke in a faint voice. In reality, even he was unable to determine the exact location of the Firerock ancestor.
However, judging from the speed at which the tunnel was disappearing, and then estimating the speed at which Firerock patriarch was moving, he would probably be able to escape from the tunnel after traveling half the distance.
a glowing passage? what’s that? ”
The old ancestor of the wind Thunder City frowned and asked in a puzzled tone.
Tang Zhen shouldn’t have any need to lie to him. In that case, the reason why the Firerock ancestor was able to quickly pass through the heavenly Ascension platform was definitely related to that mysterious glowing passage!
Could it be that patriarch Firerock had some sort of method that could activate this glowing passage, allowing him to get closer to the divine Hall of forbidden extinction even faster?
The thoughts of the old ancestor of the windthunder city started to run wild.
It was not impossible. There had been no changes in the forbidden mountain range for nearly a thousand years, but the forbidden divine Hall had suddenly appeared after patriarch Firerock had entered.
The wind lightning patriarch would never believe that there was no connection between the two.
Other than this, there was another possibility. This matter was related to Tang Zhen.
However, Tang Zhen was an outsider and not a fanatical believer. If there was no reaction when an expert believer came, the possibility of an outsider triggering a mutation was even lower.
The wind lightning patriarch would rather believe that this was just a coincidence.
Perhaps they had accidentally triggered some sort of restriction after entering the forbidden mountain range, causing the forbidden divine Hall to appear.
As the two of them conversed, the other patriarchs of the megacity were paying attention to them. When they heard Tang Zhen mention the glowing passageway, one of the patriarchs of the megacity was surprised.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly said to everyone, ” “I do know a thing or two about this glowing passageway.
It was said that 1000 years ago, the forbidden mountain range was a forbidden area for the gods. If believers wanted to see the gods, they had to wait until the heaven-reaching platform appeared once every ten years.
Only by going through a narrow escape and successfully passing the nine heavenly Ascension platforms would one have the chance to meet the gods and obtain the final reward.
However, there were always exceptions.
It was said that after some special believers entered the heavenly Ascension platform, a glowing passage would appear from the nine passages of the heavenly Ascension platform, leading the believers directly to the temple of abstinence.
This glowing passage was the safest route, and they wouldn’t encounter any danger.
It’s just that this kind of thing is extremely rare. Even if it was a thousand years ago, it only existed in legends.”
Hearing the patriarch’s explanation, everyone was surprised.
according to what you said, could it be that the Firerock ancestor is a believer of the native God? this is too outrageous!
“It’s not impossible. You have to know that it’s extremely difficult for us to make any further progress at our current level of cultivation.
However, those believers could exchange their battle achievements for the opportunity to improve their strength. As long as they had enough battle achievements, it should not be difficult for them to advance to the ultimate realm.
Perhaps the Firerock forefather secretly betrayed the warrior continent and became a believer of the native gods in order to reach the final realm.”
Hearing this analysis, the patriarchs of the megacity had different expressions. Although they didn’t believe it completely, they felt that it made sense.
Not many people could resist the temptation of advancing to the ultimate realm.
I was wondering why the Firerock ancestor kept that useless thing. It was probably to protect himself. After all, only powerful believers have a large number of energy crystals, so it’s only natural that he has frequent contact with it.
Perhaps a long time ago, he had already become the Great Temple’s Lackey, just that no one knew about it.
Now that he’s entered the forbidden mountain range, the forbidden extinction divine Hall suddenly appeared, and the heavenly Ascension platform has a special entrance, it’s enough to prove that he’s suspicious.”
Patriarch megacheng had an old grudge with patriarch Firerock, so he naturally wouldn’t miss the opportunity to hit him when he was down.
The atmosphere became tense.
&Nbsp; the goal of this trip was to enter the temple of abstinence and fight for the opportunities that might exist.
The patriarchs couldn’t help but become extremely anxious when they suspected that the Firerock patriarch’s identity might be a step ahead of them in entering the forbidden shrine.
If the Firerock forefather really seized the initiative, not only would they have worked hard for nothing, but they would also have to suffer a series of unforeseen events.
If the other party was really a secret believer, then after he advanced to the ultimate realm, he would pose a great threat to the other giant cities. This was something that the group of ancestors absolutely did not want to see.
If there was civil strife, sea monsters or believers would take the opportunity to attack, and the Millennium Foundation of the major cities would be destroyed.
let’s not waste any time. We have to think of a way to get through the heavenly Ascension platform and reach the divine Hall of abstinence as soon as possible!
The old ancestor of the wind Thunder City suggested loudly, and the other old ancestors of the megacity city agreed with him.
“Sir Tang Zhen, we will need someone to Scout the path next. What do you think?”
Tang Zhen had blocked a calamity for Zhao datou, so he was now considered the representative of the wandering martial artists. The patriarchs of the giant city were afraid of him, so they didn’t dare to capture him as they had just done.
Tang Zhen’s eyes were cold and indifferent. He swept his gaze over the group of cowardly wandering martial artists behind him and gently shook his head.
I only have a hundred men. As for the other martial artists, they have nothing to do with me.
“That’s good.”
All the patriarchs of the megacity city, including the old ancestor of the windthunder city, chuckled as they looked at the wandering martial artists with a cruel glint in their eyes.
