Heiwen City.
A city built of pitch-black boulders looks extremely retro, rough, and reveals a wild atmosphere.
This city dates back to the previous years, and it is impossible to verify it.
The current city lord, Lord Heiwen defeated the old city lord a hundred years ago, led his tribe into the city, and renamed the city "Heiwen City".
The Ancient Sage Empire is actually the earliest name of the ancient Sage civilization.
At that time, the Old Sage Empire was a truly unified country.
The founder of the empire is the first ancient sage in the history of the ancient sage civilization, and later generations call him "the original ancient sage Yuantuo".
It is said that before the "Old Sage" was born, the creepers were nothing more than a group of weak creatures eaten by fierce beasts.
Until the "First Old Sage" appeared, he was like the protagonist of the novel. In just a hundred years, from the chief of a small tribe, he fought in all directions and annexed other tribes, and finally formed a unified "Old Sage Empire", the title of the Old Sage , also handed down from that time.
The Creepers believe that the "First Old Sage" is the "Holy Snake Messenger" who was born under the will of the Holy Snake, and is a god-man who came to save the Creepers from the water and fire.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether the "First Old One" is the messenger of the holy serpent.
In short, after the emergence of the ancient holy empire, the civilization of the creepers continued to grow. From the blood of the beasts, it was finally enough to compete with the beasts.
The "Original Old Sage" established a unified creeper language and writing similar to the common language of wizards, and transformed the tribe into a city-state system.
There are many methods that lead directly to the ancient sage's avenue, and these methods are collectively referred to as "ancient sage methods".
Relying on the ancient holy law, the crawler civilization, every era can be born with the "ancient blood beast", that is, the "ancient beast".
Thanks to the protection of these ancient saints, the reptile civilization has continued to this day.
At the peak of history, that is, in the later years of the original ancient sage, there were eighteen powerful ancient sages of the same era of the creeper civilization, known as the "Eighteen Saints of the Empire".
The eighteen saints united around the original ancient saint. Under the leadership of this leader, not only did they initially solve the "vicious beast" mountain that was pressing on the creeper, but they also took the initiative to open up, fight south and north, and expand the territory. earth!
It's just that, with the disappearance of the original Old One.
The once unified crawler empire, like countless human empires in history, once again faced the situation of city-states and lords separatist regimes, and the melee has continued to this day.
After that, there is no such peerless powerhouse as the "Original Old Sage" who can overwhelm many Old Sages, unify all tribes and city-states, and establish an absolutely unified "Old Sage Empire".
The separatism of the princes and city-states is the main theme of the ancient holy empire today.
Each city-state is a tribal society with a small country and few people.
Developed to today, the number of city-states in the ancient holy empire is hundreds.
Some powerful tribes often establish their own city-states, and then divide a territory around the city-state.
The non-tribal crawlers in the territory are all "foreigners", and the status of the foreigners in the city is lower than that of the natives.
Since the disappearance of the original ancient sage, the city-states have fought endlessly for years, and the people are in dire straits. For example, the small tribe led by Chief Kaku can only risk their lives and stay in the primitive forest where fierce beasts appear.
Coupled with the invasion of ferocious beasts, external and internal troubles, the ancient sage civilization has slipped too much compared to its peak period.
Nowadays, there are only thirteen ancient sages, and it is difficult to unite if they are separated from each other. In addition, the ancient sage empire is facing a dilemma surrounded by powerful enemies.
In the south of the Ancient Sage Empire, there is a vast sea area. In the sea, there are many powerful civilizations that are not weaker than the Ancient Sage Empire.
The most representative one is the "Mosasaurus Empire" established by the "Ocean Crawler", which is an empire established by several ancient sages of the sea crawling tribe who rebelled against the ancient sage empire. Violated the frontiers of the Old Ones many times.
In the north of the ancient holy empire, in the vast and endless "Intis Mountains", there is a new and powerful empire.
The "Fengshen Empire" established by the "Feathermen". According to the reptiles, the birth of the Feathermen was later than them. It can even be said that the Feathermen are descendants of a mutant crawler.
However, almost all Feathermen have the ability to fly. Relying on air and space advantages, they quickly rose among the mountains of Intis, and are now harassing the northern frontier of the Old Sage Empire.
Among the ancient sage empire, except for a few powerful ancient sages, the only ones who can effectively cause damage to the Yu people and carry out air battles are the flying lizard clan led by the "empty old sage".
In Heiwen City.
Levi and Kaku are sitting in a tavern.
Drinking the **** "Blood Demon Wine" brewed by the creepers.
Listening to an old man talking about the ancient and modern history of the ancient holy empire and the current situation.
The old man's name is Kane, and he is one of the few educated people in Heiwen City.
Used to be the librarian of the city-state where the ancient sage was located. Later, because the ancient sage fell in the war, the city-state was destroyed and the library was burned.
Kane became a slave of foreigners, wandered all the way, and finally ended up in Heiwen City. Because of his culture, he became one of the stewards of the City Lord's Mansion.
In my spare time, I would come to the tavern to drink, brag, and show off my knowledge. Gradually, I became famous.
"Lord Kane, where did the Old Sage go?" Li Wei asked.
Kane followed the voice and looked at Li Wei. Li Wei's red scales made him pay special attention.
Because of the Salamander clan, their status in the Old Sage Empire is relatively high.
Even in Gentile cities, the Salamanders don’t have to worry about being discriminated against because they are Gentiles.
After all, who would dare to discriminate against a powerful race that gave birth to the Old Ones.
Moreover, as we all know, the original Old Sage was born in the Salamander family, which has allowed the Salamander family to have a relatively detached status.
So the combination of Li Wei and Kaku, in Kane's view, is a young man of the noble Salamander family, traveling abroad with his servants of the Green Lizard family.
"In the beginning, the ancient sage's distance from this year can't be verified, because the history books have already been broken during the perennial battles. The lifespan of the ancient sage is only five hundred years. Some extremely powerful ones may have a thousand-year lifespan, but compared to the ancient The long history of the Holy Empire, this is nothing more than an inconspicuous wave... So, the original ancient sage, alas, has a high probability of falling." Kane sighed, from ancient times to the present, among so many ancient sages with historical records, only There is the first Old One, the most worshiped by him.
"If the original Old Sage was alive, how dare the Fengshen Empire and the Mosasaurus Empire dare to presumptuously in front of the Ancient Sage Empire? The original Old Sage alone is enough to suppress the traitors of these creeper civilizations!" Kane said angrily.
"Master Kane, is there a country in the north of the Intis Mountains?" Levi asked.
"I don't know about this either. No one can cross the Intis Mountains alive. Those Feathermen hovering high in the sky and overlooking the earth are not vegetarians." Kane shook his head.
Li Wei thought in his heart, looking at it now, there are three proven maps in this area.
The Ancient Sage Empire, the Fengshen Empire, and the Mosasaurus Empire.
The three major empires have the same origin, and tracing back to their ancestors, they are all reptile civilizations, but they are now parting ways.
The problem that plagued the three empires together is the "violent beast".
"If the two empires next door can compete with the ancient sage empire, there should be no shortage of ancient sage powerhouses. From this point of view, on the map I know today, there are ancient sage-level powerhouses comparable to four-ring wizards , there are dozens of them.
In the wizarding world, ordinary middle-level wizarding organizations can’t produce so many fourth-level powerhouses. The difficulty of conquering this plane is greater than I imagined, so I have to figure it out slowly.
Fortunately, the thirteen Old Sages are not a piece of iron. Maybe I can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and support an absolute dictator like the original Old Sage as a puppet, so that I can control the entire Old Sage Empire. Rule the country behind the scenes, annex the Fengshen Empire and the Mosasaurus Empire, and explore the wider boundaries of this world. "
Li Wei murmured to himself.
He already had a preliminary plan in mind.
"Salamander boy, if you are interested in the original Old Sage, if you have the opportunity, you can go to the city-states where the Old Sage sits. Black-patterned City is always a small place."
Satisfied with food and drink, Kane rubbed his belly and vomited snake letter, Shi Shiran left the tavern.
He chatted very speculatively with Li Wei, and it’s been a long time since he met a young reptile like Li Wei who was willing to listen to him talk.
"Thank you, Lord Kane." Li Wei smiled.
In the tavern, Li Wei and Kaku continued to drink wine.
"My lord, where are we going next?" Kaku asked.
"City Lord's Mansion." Li Wei said calmly, with calm eyes.
…
The City Lord's Mansion.
On the training ground.
A thick lizardman covered in gray scales and wearing a bone armor wielded a large sword. The strong wind brought by the swing of the large sword caused sand and rocks to fly on the training ground, and an invisible heat wave permeated the training ground. generally.
This is the black-striped city lord, Mengka.
The members of the Black-striped tribe are all the stronger "Black-spotted lizards" among the creepers. The black-spotted lizards have extremely strong defense and are born with great strength. They are all brave warriors.
"Lord Mengka, there is a Salamander outside asking to see you." The servant came in and said.
"Salamander?" Monka frowned slightly. "Let him in."
Not long after, a red-scaled salamander walked in with a very ordinary green lizard crawler.
"Greetings, Lord City Master." The Salamander said respectfully.
"What are you looking for from the city master?" Mengka asked.
"I want...to be the lord of the city." Li Wei smiled slightly.
Monka's complexion changed.
The next moment, Li Wei's body exploded, and the real body of the fire dragon emerged, the raging flames burned, and the power runes flickered.
Monka raised his big sword and slashed towards Li Wei. The blood in his body began to boil, white smoke rose into the sky, and hot flames spewed out from his mouth, burning the big sword red.
"Red Burning Heart Slash!" Mengka roared in a low voice, his face painful, he knew that the comer was not good, so when he made a move, he did it with all his strength.
Li Wei didn't dodge, he smashed his scaly fist on the hot sword, and the sword body shook violently, cracking Mengka's palm, and the big sword flew out and landed in the distance.
The burning red sword scorched the ground black and turned it into scorched earth with flames in a short period of time. This temperature can be seen.
On the other hand, Li Wei's fist was safe and sound, except for a little white smoke.
"too weak."
In the blink of an eye, Li Wei came to the back of Mengka, grabbed Mengka's neck with his big hand, and pressed it violently.
Monka fell down in response, with a bang, his face hit the ground, and dust flew up.
"I just need to apply a little force, and you will die." Li Wei said lightly, his eyes were cold.
Monka was pressed to the ground, unable to move.
The lord of the Heiwen City is weaker than he imagined, and he feels that his strength is not as good as that of Bogang, let alone comparable to the senior wizards of the third ring.
"Who are you? Among the thirteen ancient sages, there is no existence like you!" Mengka asked in horror.
With just one move, the winner will be decided.
The gap between him and the opponent is too big, the opponent is definitely a strong person at the level of the Old Sage.
You know, he is also an ancient snake-level powerhouse. In this ancient sage empire, only the ancient sage can easily defeat him, Mengka.
Monka knows all of the thirteen ancient sages today, and the one who is closest to the one in front of him is without a doubt Burning Heaven Old Sage.
The problem is that Ancient Sage Fentian usually sits in his own Fentian City, so how could he come to his own small black-patterned city.
Could it be that there are actually two Old Sages in the Salamander clan?
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that if you don't obey, you will die." Li Wei's voice was indifferent, and he revealed a trace of the ancient sage's aura, and the majesty of the ancient sage swept in like a tide, drowning Monka.
"You... what do you want to do?"
"Don't do anything, stop struggling, offer a piece of your soul, take the initiative to sign a contract with me, I will promise not to kill you, otherwise..." Li Wei took out a contract slate and threatened.
Lizardmen are also humanoids. It stands to reason that the contract on the contract slate can also take effect on them, but the other party needs to donate their own souls.
Monka saw the slate in the man's hand. Although he didn't know what it was, there was no doubt that it was not good for him.
But in this situation, in this situation where the gap between the enemy and ourselves is too large, he seems to have no choice.
"I'll do it..." Monka said with a sigh.
"Don't worry, I've always said what I say." Li Wei smiled with narrowed eyes, making people shudder.
Mengka only felt that the heavens were a disaster, and he didn't know where the Old Sage appeared. It was really bad luck.
In the end, Li Wei and Monka signed an unequal treaty.
After signing, Mengka always felt that there was some kind of **** on his soul. Once he violated the content of the contract, he was afraid that he would end badly, which made him feel ashamed.
"When I have the fourteenth level of the scarlet dragon breathing method, and add another one to the contract position, I don't have to be so troublesome." Li Wei thought.
He now has two positions in the Scarlet Contract, one for the Baron of the Deep Sea Baghdad, and the other for the blood clan Skein, both of which are more important to Levi, and there is no way to cancel the contract.
Outside the door, the guard seemed to hear the commotion and rushed in.
"My lord, are you alright?" the guard asked,
"It's okay, you back off, I had a sparring with this Salamander friend." Mengka said calmly, but his heart was bitter. This is not a sparring, this is one-sided crushing...
"What does the Old Sage want to do? You might as well tell me clearly that I, Mengka, is just the lord of a small border city with limited abilities. From the eyes of the Old Sage, he probably won't take a fancy to me, a city-state in a remote place, right? "Monka said with a sigh.
"You are very smart and know the current affairs very well. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. My goal is very simple, to unify all the city-states and make the ancient holy empire great again." Li Wei said very seriously.
"Master Old Sage... With all due respect, this matter should also be the goal of the other thirteen Old Sages, but since the disappearance of the original Old Sage, no one has ever been able to unify the Old Sage Empire," Monka said.
"How will you know if you don't try?" Li Wei said confidently. "Your city lord, you can continue to be in front of me. I was just joking. I am not interested in your position as the city lord. I just need you to do things according to my wishes in the future."
Li Wei is not sure whether his current strength can win an ancient sage, or he would have gone to the city-states where the ancient sages were in charge, and won the ancient sages.
To be on the safe side, it is better to control an ordinary city lord first, and after a deeper understanding of this world, it is better to gradually get in touch with those ancient sages.
In the following days, Li Wei lived in Heiwen City.
I have to say, as the lord of the Black Stripe City, Mengka knows much more than Kaku.
Li Wei gained a deeper understanding of the situation of the thirteen ancient saints from Monka, and he also obtained the "Old Sage Law" he practiced from Monka.
In a mansion in Heiwen City, Li Wei sat in front of a desk. On the desk, there was a piece of rough paper that seemed to be made of animal skin.
The text on the animal skin paper is the lingua franca of the creeper civilization, which Li Wei has already mastered. In addition, there are various actions and postures.
When he finished reading it, he fell into deep thought.
"This seems to be similar to the inheritance diagram of the knight's breathing method. The only difference is that there is only a picture of a villain on this ancient holy method, but there is no black snake with a candle like the black snake breathing method... Is the modified version of the knight's breathing method castrated? ?”
According to Mengka, the practice of the ancient holy law is based on the formulas, essentials, postures, and movements recorded in the ancient holy law, and then devour a large amount of specific beast meat to obtain energy from it and transform the lizardman's body , and finally realize the evolution of the physical body continuously.
From insects to lizards, lizards to snakes, snakes to become ancient, and transformed into saints.
These are the four stages of practice in the ancient holy law.
The ancient sacred law that Mengka gave Li Wei was obtained by him in the ruins of an abandoned ancient holy temple, and it was called "the ancient holy law of flame blood".
To practice this ancient holy method, one must take a kind of flesh and blood called "flame beast" as the basis and take it for a long time.
Using the ancient holy method to absorb the unique "flame blood energy" in the flesh and blood of the flame beast, and use this "flame blood energy" to transform the whole body, refining the viscera and tendons, washing the marrow and quenching the bones, and after exchanging blood, you will be the ancient sage.
The stronger the flame beast, the better its effect.
Practice to the highest level, you can compare to the king among the flame beasts.
Ancient Beast·Blood Hunting Dragon.
This is a powerful existence that lives underground and is often accompanied by magma.
The body of the Flaming Blood Hunting Dragon contains "ancient blood".
The so-called ancient bloodlines are said to be the bloodlines left by several "ancient kings" who stood at the top of hundreds of millions of creatures at the beginning of the birth of this world.
Oceros, king of the sky, Deusis, king of the forest, Ernis, king of the sea, Mobius, king of the underground.
The four ancient kings, representing the creation of the earth, fire, geomantic omen, each ruled the four ancient kingdoms.
It is said that the four ancient kings were all under the command of the supreme Lord Snake, following the will of the Snake, they created this world and maintained the world order.
At that time, neither Feathermen nor Creepers were born.
Only the fierce beasts of different camps commanded by the ancient kings gallop in the sky, forest, ocean, and even underground.
So, whether it is the Ancient Sage Empire, Fengshen Empire, or Mosasaurus Empire, they are all extremely afraid of ancient bloodlines.
Later, the powerful ancient empire seemed to fall apart overnight, and the four ancient kings also fell one after another.
The flesh and blood of the ancient kings were shared by the surviving beasts, and the first ancient beasts, the creeper civilization, were born, most likely at this time.
These are all legends that Li Wei got from the old man Kane during this period of time.
Li Wei has a vague feeling, whether it is the "ancient king", or the "primary ancient sage", and "ancient holy law" and so on.
These things are all inseparable from the ancient wizard who entered here.
"Who? Entered here, what is the purpose of doing all this?"
Li Wei looked at the blueprints recording the ancient holy law, thinking inwardly.
…
The next day.
Li Wei looked at the flame beast meat sent by men from Mengka.
This is a very ordinary-looking large piece of meat, weighing about a hundred catties, and it is particularly strong. Moreover, it has been dead for so long, and the surface is still exuding high temperature. This should be the so-called "flaming blood energy".
Levi took a little blood from it and put it in Rowling's crystal.
【The blood of the red fire snake is 56%, the blood of the red stone lizard is 68%...the blood of the lamp dragon is 1.5%. 】
Seeing this, Li Wei's complexion changed.
"The Lantern Dragon?"
In his database, there is no information about this dragon family.
"If you have a chance in the future, you have to find out what kind of dragon is the Lantern Dragon?"
In this world, Li Wei has found two descendants of dragon blood.
Emerald Dragon, Underworld Dragon.
During this time, Li Wei studied the supreme holy snake believed by the reptile civilization.
Judging from the records and descriptions of the Holy Snake left behind, the Holy Snake is a ouroboros snake connected end to end. He coiled in the sky, spinning continuously, exuding holy light, expelling darkness, and shining on believers, just like the sun.
From this point of view, there are similarities between the Holy Snake and Levi's family crest, the Black Snake.
But Li Wei didn't see the most prominent feature "candle holder", so he didn't dare to be sure that the holy snake was the black snake.
Now, he found the blood of the Lantern Dragon in the body of the beast that contained the ancient blood.
According to the legend, the ancient blood is the blood of the four kings under the command of the Holy Snake.
"Denglong, could it be the Black Snake holding a candle...Could it be that the Black Snake is a general under the command of the Holy Snake? Or, it is the vest of the Holy Snake..."
