Chapter 1,265 The Cruel World

"I think we can talk."

After killing the Soul Sword Supreme, Luo Xiu looked at the remaining two Supremes. As for the insignificant little guy like Wang Chuanming, he was too lazy to pay attention to him.

"I am the Venerable Gun Tu, and I have met the Venerable Shura." A man in a golden robe bowed to Luo Xiu.

"I am the Venerable Ku Mu, and I have met the Venerable Shura." Another gray-haired man in a green Taoist robe also bowed.

At this moment, naturally no one dared to call the other party a junior like the Soul Sword Venerable, and with the terrifying strength that Luo Xiu showed to kill the early Supreme in an instant, the two Venerables Gun Tu and Ku Mu did not even dare to call him Taoist friends, but called him Venerable.

Luo Xiu disagreed with this. Whether it was the Great Emperor or the Venerable, it was just a title. No matter how loud the name was, in the world of martial arts practitioners, what counted after all was strength!

The titles of the Great Emperor, Supreme, and Dao Lord among the gods and demons are very loud, but even the weakest immortal among the immortals can kill a large area in a second with a wave of his hand.

"Just now, I heard what Soul Sword Venerable said. It seems that there are only three of these tokens, right?" Luo Xiu said slowly.

When he showed his strength comparable to that of the Supreme, Soul Sword Venerable thought he was at the level of the Supreme, so he exclaimed, 'This is impossible. If you are also at the level of the Supreme, how did you get in? '

Luo Xiu deduced that there were only three of these tokens based on this sentence, otherwise Soul Sword Venerable would not say such a thing. Since he said so, he must be sure that there are only three tokens.

"Haha, Daoyou is right. There are indeed only three such tokens. Moreover, the three of us found a certain ruin together. When we opened the ruins, there were only three Heavenly Questioning Immortal Tokens." Venerable Gun Tu explained, "Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that someone got this token in other ruins, otherwise it is impossible to explain how Venerable Shura got in."

Hearing this, Luo Xiu quickly made an inference based on the information revealed by the other party. If it was really the ruins that these three people found and obtained the Heavenly Questioning Immortal Token, and then they came to Tianwu Island as soon as possible, this would indeed avoid the possibility of being taken away by other supreme strongmen.

However, Luo Xiu still felt that this reason was a bit far-fetched, so the result of his inference was more inclined to the fact that Venerable Gun Tu was lying!

However, Luo Xiu did not point it out, nor did he take action directly. No matter what the other party's purpose was, as long as he entered the Heavenly Questioning Palace, everything would be revealed. If he really tore his face, it might be counterproductive.

In fact, Luo Xiu was still a little afraid of these strong men who could reach the supreme realm. After all, no one could guarantee whether these strong men in the supreme realm had any powerful treasures or trump cards, so if it was not necessary, Luo Xiu would not easily conflict with such strong men.

In the world of martial arts, the stronger the cultivation, the less likely they would take action. This is also the reason, because the more powerful the person, the more means they have and the stronger their trump cards.

As for why Luo Xiu killed the Soul Sword Supreme, it was naturally not just because the other party's voice was unpleasant, but because he was sure that he could kill a Supreme in the early stage under a close-range surprise attack.

But now the Gun Tu Venerable and the Dead Wood Venerable were obviously on guard, and he would not succeed if he attacked again.

The result of a forced action was that even if he could kill these two people, he would definitely not be unscathed.

So after weighing the pros and cons, Luo Xiu gave up and smiled, "I did get such a Heavenly Questioning Immortal Order."

"Haha, if Venerable Shura doesn't mind, you will replace Venerable Soul Knife, and we will explore the restricted area of ​​the Heavenly Questioning Palace together. If we can find any treasures, Brother Gun Tu and I can let you choose first, how about that?" Venerable Ku Mu said with a smile.

"How can I be so embarrassed?"

Luo Xiu said politely, but his expression was very calm, and he didn't look embarrassed at all.

The corners of the two venerables' mouths twitched twice, and they looked at each other, giving each other a tacit look, and didn't say anything else.

So the next group of people entered the Heavenly Questioning Palace. The original team of more than 30 people now only had about 20 people. Luo Xiu just killed Venerable Soul Knife, and those who followed Venerable Soul Knife who were not killed by the Immortal King's handprint also chose to escape at the first time.

Wang Chuanming also wanted to escape, but he had to bite the bullet and follow him in. He had a little resentment towards Han Shu in his heart. He felt that if Han Shu hadn't brought the black-robed man here, he would never be so nervous as he is now.

Wentian Palace is not a palace, but a group of palaces. Each palace here is connected to each other. The deeper you go, the more forks there are in the passage, and the more various formations and restrictions there are.

Wentian Ruins has existed for countless years. The periphery of Wentian Ruins has naturally been explored countless times, so the group did not delay on the road at all and moved forward very quickly.

Over the endless years, countless Nine Emperors have come here, so the extreme area that the Nine Emperors can explore is called the periphery of Wentian Palace.

And the deeper areas that the Nine Emperors dare not set foot in are called restricted areas.

In the restricted area, the Nine Emperors are in danger of death. Although there are occasionally lucky enough to come out alive, they are basically seriously injured, or even damaged. Those who can gain something are rare.

This time, Venerable Guntu and his team's goal was to explore the scope of the restricted area. This kind of Heavenly Questioning Immortal Order that allows supreme strongmen to enter Tianwu Island and explore the Heavenly Questioning Palace has never appeared before.

On the way, Venerable Kumu found a special array restriction that blocked the entrance to a room. The reason why this restriction is special is that the higher the cultivation level, the stronger the resistance will be when approaching the door of this room.

Venerable Kumu and Venerable Guntu have tried it, and they can only get close to the door of the room within 200 meters. The early stage of the Nine Emperors can get close to 100 meters, and the Eight Emperors can get close to 60 meters. Only the Seventh Wheel Divine Emperor can walk to the door and pass through the restriction.

Luo Xiu also tried it and found that he could only walk 180 meters, which is about the same as other peak Nine Emperors.

This allowed him to conclude that this restriction was completely based on cultivation, not strength.

The two venerables, Ku Mu and Qiang Tu, showed a little doubt about this, but they did not think much about it, because they would never think that a peak Nine Emperors had the means to easily kill the Supreme. At most, they would only think that he had some kind of treasure against the formation restriction, so he could walk more than 20 meters ahead of the two Supremes.

So the seven-wheeled God Emperor-level martial artists brought by the two venerables came in handy, and Han Shu's two daughters, Han Yan and Han Xue, were among them.

These seven-wheeled God Emperors were given some treasures, and soon they all passed through the restriction at the door of the room and entered the room.

The formation restriction has the effect of isolating the divine consciousness. Even with the divine consciousness strength of the late Supreme Luo Xiu, he could not see the scene in the room. As for his attainments in the formation restriction, it was not of much use here, because he found that the formation patterns and operation concepts contained in the formation restriction here were fundamentally different from the formation concepts he knew.

His formation method originated from the formation scroll created by the formation ancestor, representing the highest level of formation since the Taichu era.

But the array formations and restrictions in the Wentian Palace, whether it is the engraving of the array patterns or the concept of operating the array, are better than what Luo Xiu knows.

If Luo Xiu's array formation attainments are at the level of gods and demons, then the array formations and restrictions here are at the level of immortals.

God array master, immortal array master, a word difference, a thousand miles of difference.

Except for the few people who entered the room, the others, including the three venerables, were also standing two hundred meters away waiting.

Han Shu and Su Ge's faces were full of worry. The two were communicating with each other through their spiritual consciousness. Su Ge seemed to be blaming her husband.

"Do you think I am willing to let our daughter take risks? We have been together for so many years, don't you understand? In our martial arts world, flowers that can only grow in a greenhouse are destined to be unable to withstand wind and rain. We can protect our daughters for a while, but if one day, you and I die, how can they survive in this world?"

Unlike his wife, Han Shu is a very rational person, and he has a more thorough understanding of the survival rules of this world than most people, and this is exactly what Luo Xiu admires about him.

Time passed quietly, and Luo Xiu, like the two venerables, sat cross-legged in an open space, closed his eyes and rested his mind.

Three days later, ripples appeared on the light curtain of the formation at the entrance of the room, and then several figures walked out.

When they went in, there were seven people, but when they came out, there were only three people left.

"Xue'er, where is your sister?"

Su Ge rushed over. She saw her youngest daughter Han Xue among the three people, but she didn't see Han Yan.

Seeing her mother, Han Xue couldn't help but throw herself into her arms and cried.

Han Yan died, and three other people also died inside. There were treasures in the room, but each treasure was restricted by a formation. If you accidentally touched it, if you were not careful enough and your strength was not strong enough, you would die.

Su Ge cried sadly, and Han Shu stood by and patted his wife's shoulder and stroked Xue'er's long hair. There was sadness in his eyes, but he tried not to show it.

Martial arts practice makes gods and demons far superior to mortals in life form, and they regard mortals as ants, but the environment they live in is also more cruel.

A seven-wheeled god emperor, if nothing unexpected happens, has a lifespan of tens of billions of years, but people who can really live to the end of their lives are almost non-existent, either being killed in a fight with others, or falling while seeking opportunities and treasures. Even if you try to avoid all dangers as much as possible, dangers will take the initiative to find you.

Martial arts training is a life process that will either advance or retreat. When one day you are stuck in the same place and cannot move forward, then you are not far from the end of death.

Han Xue and the other three took out the treasures they got from the room. There were four treasures in total, a piece of silver-white divine iron, a pill in a delicate jade box, a black feather with flame patterns, and a pure white talisman.

Facing the three venerables, they did not dare to hide these treasures at all, because whether it was Luo Xiu or the other two venerables, their powerful divine sense could easily detect their respective storage rings and the space inside the magic treasures hidden in their bodies.
