Volume 5 Sword Qi Nine Sky Seven Hundred and Nineteen Southern Wilderness Puppet Emperor
"In the center of the desert, there is a ruins. It is a palace from many years ago. There are many broken puppets hidden in the palace, and this bronze giant puppet is the most powerful one. There should be many similar puppets. Young Master, Brother Liu just needs to find another puppet with a complete core. As for the method of leaving the desert, I can't tell you now. I can't tell you until Brother Liu gets the core back." The fat old man said calmly.
After Liu Ming heard this, he laughed.
The slightly fat old man looked as usual, as if he was waiting for Liu Ming to speak.
"Senior is joking. If you don't tell me the general method of leaving, I will never go to the ruins to look for the puppet core. If I retrieve the puppet core, the elder will not tell me the method of leaving, and will ask me to do other things. What should I do? Moreover, the ruined palace that the great elder mentioned must be very dangerous. Otherwise, the nobles would have sent people to enter it, so why would I, an outsider, need to take action? In short, the senior’s words cannot convince me, and I will leave without getting certain information. Under the circumstances, I'm afraid I can't agree to this." Liu Ming said lightly.
"Forget it, with Brother Liu's performance today, I can no longer treat you as an outsider, so I'll tell you more." The fat old man thought about it for a moment, then said with a smile.
Liu Ming naturally expressed his willingness to listen.
"This place is called a strange desert in the outside world, but in the eyes of us Sand people, it is a holy land. In fact, it is a treasure from the cave of a powerful man thousands of years ago. Before the death of this powerful man, he moved this treasure to In the space crack, and every ten years, this treasure will break through the space crack and appear somewhere in Nanman. At this time, the sand storm at the crack will be greatly weakened, and outsiders can come in. But at that time, A good opportunity to leave, but only in a certain place."
"We, the Sand Clan, are actually the descendants of that powerful man back then. The sand beasts that Brother Liu saw before are the blood of the powerful man who raised the spiritual beasts back then. And what I just said The ruins here are the residence of this powerful man during his lifetime. Although this powerful man has fallen for tens of thousands of years, how can there be no backup for the ruins left by such a figure? Therefore, the ruins are still inside There are many traps, and there are many puppets wandering inside and outside the palace. Anyone who comes close will be attacked.
"Earlier, our ancestors of the Sand Clan could still control some of the wandering puppets, and even command those sand beasts. But thousands of years have passed, and the method of driving the puppets has long been lost, and the bloodlines of those sand beasts have changed. He was not under control, and instead became a great harm to our Sha clan people."
"But more importantly, our ancestors of the Sand tribe once made a blood oath that future generations are not allowed to step into the depths of the ruins, otherwise they will suffer the backlash of the oath and the entire tribe will be extinct. But now, the puppet parts that can be found outside the ruins have long been After being exhausted by the search, if you want to search again, you can only go deep into the ruins or even into the palace. This is why I can only ask fellow Taoists to go there. As long as Brother Liu can retrieve the core, I can use the treasures of the clan , try hard to lose some vitality, and when the next ten years comes, I can send you away safely."
The fat old man spoke to Liu Ming word for word without reservation, appearing very sincere.
After Liu Ming heard this, although he did not fully believe what the other party said, he was greatly enlightened.
According to the great elder of the Sand Clan, when he entered the strange desert, it was the time when the cave treasure broke through the space crack and appeared in the southern barbarians. In this case, wouldn't he have to stay in this space for ten years? leave.
But fortunately, he still has some elixirs on him, so he can't afford to wait for ten years.
"In this case, the matter mentioned by the great elder,
I can agree, but the great elder must make a blood oath to ensure that when the matter is accomplished, he will help me leave. Liu Ming thought for a moment and said again.
"This should be the case. I am willing to swear on the lives of the entire clan that after the event is completed, Tu will do his best to help Brother Liu leave this place, otherwise he will be killed and the clan will be destroyed." The fat old man Lu was overjoyed when he heard this, and he promised. .
Then, he bit his finger and forced out a few drops of blood, and discovered the blood oath in front of Liu Ming.
Seeing this, Liu Ming nodded slightly, agreeing to the matter.
"In this case, Brother Liu, go back and rest early. Tomorrow I will ask Chu'er to take you to the ruins in the center of the desert. This girl also knows the specific situation there, and she will definitely be able to help you." The fat old man saw that Here, he said with a happy face.
"Then I'll take my leave now."
Liu Ming stood up, cupped his hands, said goodbye to the Great Elder of the Sand Clan, and turned around to leave.
As soon as he returned to his residence, he fell asleep and fell into a deep sleep.
Today's battle took a lot of mana and mental energy. Tomorrow's trip may be even more dangerous, so we must quickly restore ourselves to the best condition.
The next day, Liu Ming didn't wake up until near noon.
When he sleepily opened the tent door, he found that Shachuer had been waiting outside for a long time.
"Brother Liu, you're awake." Shachu'er, still with a white face on his face, saw Liu Ming coming out and said with a chuckle.
"I've kept Miss Sha waiting for a long time. It seems that the Great Elder has already told Miss Chu'er. In this case, let's set off." Liu Ming said inexorably.
"Okay. The center of the ruins is more than hundreds of miles away from here. Brother Liu can't escape in the sand like us Sand people. I'm afraid we won't be able to get there in a while. We'll find out the specific situation as we go. Say." Shachuer nodded and said.
Next, Liu Ming, led by Shachuer, left Shaman City and rushed to the center of the desert.
Along the way, since the two had known each other for a long time and had fought side by side yesterday, they talked happily.
After the two chatted casually for a while, Liu Ming asked in a different direction.
"About the attack and the powerful man mentioned by the great elder, Miss Sha, can you tell me more in detail about Liu?"
"That powerful man, who is the owner of this cave-heaven treasure, should also be known to Brother Liu. He is the powerful Tongxuan who is known as the Puppet Emperor of Southern Wilderness in the outside world. It is said that this The senior was originally from the Tiangong Sect, one of the four great sects in the Zhongtian Continent. Later, for some reason, he turned against the Tiangong Sect and became an abandoned disciple. However, after that, he made great progress in his skills and created A huge army of puppets, relying on the power of puppets, once dominated the Southern Barbarians." Shachuer slowly explained to Liu Ming as he walked.
"It's true." Liu Ming muttered to himself after hearing this.
"Brother Liu, what do you mean by this?" Shachu'er was a little confused after hearing this.
"I know someone who is also a member of the Tiangong Sect. The golden bronze man he drives is quite similar to the blue bronze puppet driven by the great elder. Now it seems that it turns out that he is from the same sect." Liu Ming also There was nothing to hide, so he opened his mouth to explain.
"Brother Liu originally got acquainted with people from the Tiangong Sect. In fact, I am not a pure-blooded Sha Clan person. My father is not a member of the Sha Clan. Like Brother Liu, he was an outsider who entered the Holy Land many years ago. He was also originally A disciple of a certain family in Zhongtian Continent was naturally unwilling to be trapped here. However, he later met his mother, and the two fell in love and got married. From then on, my father never had any thoughts of leaving this place.
However, my father was unable to practice here due to restrictions on his cultivation. As time passed, he completely became a mortal and passed away not long after. Shachuer said calmly, but a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.
Liu Ming was a little surprised when he heard this, but when he recalled what this woman had frequently asked about the eight aristocratic families before, he suddenly understood.
After he immediately comforted the woman, he deliberately changed the subject and asked about some ruins.
Shachuer naturally said everything he knew.
The ruins were not close to the oasis. The two of them hiked forward. Fortunately, they did not encounter a big sandstorm. They encountered several sand jackals along the way, and they were all killed casually without wasting much time.
More than a day later, the two came to a hill-like sand dune. This place was no longer a pure desert, and the ground was covered with various jagged and strange rocks.
"After passing this sand dune, we are almost at the location of the ruins." Shachuer said with a long breath as soon as he saw the sand dune.
Liu Ming nodded, showing a hint of solemnity.
At this time, he had discovered that the closer he got to this so-called ruins, the more the desert suppressed his magic power. In the oasis where the Sand tribe lived, he could still maintain the strength of the middle stage of the condensation. After arriving here, he only had the strength of the early stage. Cultivation
Not only that, his spiritual senses were also suppressed, and he could only stay a few feet away from his body.
With such a powerful restriction, it seems that this is the residence of the Southern Wasteland Puppet Emperor, which is probably true.
"When we get here, there will be no more attacks from sandstorms and sand beasts, but we have to be more careful. There are many puppets wandering around the ruins. They will attack anyone who wants to enter the ruins." Shachuer quickened his pace slightly and took the lead. Head towards the dunes.
Liu Ming nodded and followed closely.
With the physical strength of the two of them, it didn't take long for them to climb over the sand dune, and the sight that appeared in front of them made Liu Ming's face tremble.
"This is what you call the ruins... It is indeed the place where the powerful master of Tongxuan Realm lived in the past!"
Appearing in front of him was a vast expanse of ruins covering an area of nearly ten thousand acres. Looking around, he could see the ruins and ruins, which looked extremely eye-catching under the yellow sky.
The mottled ancient city wall is full of signs of collapse left by the ages. Broken glazed blue bricks, broken tiles made of purple jade, and broken white jade pillars can be seen everywhere.
This shows how magnificent and luxurious these buildings were back then.
