Chapter 220: The Secret of the Dynasty, the Immortal Emperor, the Wine Bug or the Nine Bugs
Chapter 220 Dynasty Secrets, the Immortal Emperor, the Wineworm or... the Nine Worms
Use the external incarnation to control a Gu cultivator, and then use the other party to enter the prison of the Demon Suppression Division of Huaiyang Prefecture.
This is the first step of Lu Chen's plan to "steal the sky and replace the day".
As for the second step, which is what he is doing now, he will collect as much information as possible about the prison of the Demon Suppression Division.
Including the layout of the prison of the Demon Suppression Division, and which demons and evil ways are imprisoned here.
In this way, only in this way can they easily replace these people in the future.
Now Lu Chen's control over the external incarnation has reached an extremely high level.
Ordinary restrictions are simply useless to Lu Chen.
If it weren't for the fact that directly controlling a prison guard of the Demon Suppression Division would easily attract the attention of the Demon Suppression Division in advance, Lu Chen could have directly controlled the other party when the prison guard was escorting him.
As Lu Chen walked out of the prison, the prison of the Demon Suppression Division of Huaiyang Prefecture soon came into Lu Chen's sight.
The entire underground prison is divided into four floors, which are Room 4 of "A, B, C, D" in order.
The first two floors hold only ordinary demons, most of whom have some cultivation, but their cultivation is average.
The last two floors hold the real tough guys.
For example, Room 'B' where Lu Chen is currently, holds a cultivator of the second realm.
As for Room 'A', it is even more different.
It is a room specially prepared for the 'third realm'.
Although Room A has the least prisoners, it occupies two-thirds of the entire underground prison.
This also shows how much the Demon Suppression Department attaches importance to Room A.
There are only five similar prisons in the entire Daying Dynasty.
One each in the southeast, northwest, and the central palace.
Among them, the Demon Suppression Department prison in the palace is the largest, and it holds the most big demons and big demons.
Although the Demon Suppression Department in Huaiyang Prefecture where Lu Chen is currently is also holding a lot of big demons and big demons, it is much worse than the Demon Suppression Department in the palace in terms of both quantity and quality.
Lu Chen walked in the underground prison. Along the way, he saw many demons and demon cultivators imprisoned in Room B.
Similar to the demons and demon cultivators in Zhongzhou, these guys imprisoned in Room B are all entangled in karma.
Obviously, there is a lot of blood on his hands.
"Di Ting, have you found the formation here?"
Di Ting, who was lying on the ground, heard this and put his ear to the ground while answering: "I found it, but Brother Lu, there seems to be a big fish hidden deep underground here. The other party is a bit difficult to deal with."
"It doesn't matter, these are all within my expectations. You just need to find out what restrictions are here."
"Okay."
Not long after, Di Ting stood up.
"Okay Brother Lu, except for the big fish in the deep, I have found most of the restrictions here."
Lu Chen nodded, and then took Di Ting back to his original cell.
Because Lu Chen had already sensed someone walking towards the floor of Room B.
Now is not the time to be exposed.
Soon, a middle-aged man with a golden order on his waist passed by the cell in front of Lu Chen.
And beside him, there were two silver order heavenly masters from the Demon Suppression Division.
The three of them walked through the floor of Room B and went directly to the floor of Room A in the depths.
After the three left, Lu Chen released Di Ting again.
After the arrangement of Di Ting just now, it can now circumvent most of the restrictions here.
With its outstanding hearing, Di Ting can now monitor most areas in this prison.
Although Lu Chen didn't know who the three people who just passed by were.
But through the clothes of the three people, Lu Chen had roughly known the identity of this person.
There is no doubt that this person is the current ruler of the Demon Suppression Division of Huainan Prefecture, the third-level Gu cultivator... Yuwen Hongguang.
'The situation in the Daying Dynasty is turbulent now. If the third-level Gu cultivator does not have something important, he will definitely not walk around casually. It seems that there should be something important hidden in the prison of the Demon Suppression Division. ’
Thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately patted Di Ting's head and asked it to listen carefully to what Yuwen Hongguang was doing in this underground prison.
The third floor of the Demon Suppression Division, Room A.
Yuwen Hongguang walked to Room A. There were only six rooms here, and a private prison independent of Room A.
And the place he was going to this time was Room 5 of Room A.
"Your Excellency the Tour Envoy."
Seeing Yuwen Hongguang's appearance, the jailer guarding Room A immediately stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"Open Room 5."
"Yes."
The jailer came to Room 5 and suddenly had a special jade talisman in his hand.
As the jade talisman fit into the groove on the cell door, countless array lights appeared on the door.
Not long after, the originally closed cell door slowly opened.
In the cell, Yue Ziqi, with disheveled hair, raised his head and soon saw his former colleague.
Yuwen Hongguang looked at him and said calmly: "You still don't want to say it?"
Yue Ziqi lowered his head and replied in a hoarse voice: "If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext."
"Heh."
Yuwen Hongguang sneered and then came to Yue Ziqi.
"Ziqi, do you think that as long as you don't say it, we can't find out who is behind you?"
"To tell you the truth, it's not my intention to touch you. I don't have that much ability. It was the order from the current emperor himself."
"If you tell me what you know now, the Holy See will recognize your past achievements and maybe give you a good time."
"But if you still don't tell me, then what's waiting for you next are those old monsters in the palace prison."
"Tell me, where is Queen Xiao, and where is the Prince?"
"Speak out, and you can still have some dignity."
Hearing this, Yue Ziqi thought of something and slowly raised his head.
Although at this time, because his limbs were locked by the Demon Suppressing Nails, he looked completely without the majesty of the Three Realms Golden Order in the past.
But those eyes are still not a little bit depressed, they are still full of energy.
This made Yuwen Hongguang admire him, but he also felt very dissatisfied.
Believe that your authority has been challenged.
Yue Ziqi looked at Yuwen Hongguang and said calmly: "Hongguang, how old is your Majesty now?"
Hearing this, Yuwen Hongguang narrowed his eyes and said quietly: "Five hundred and six."
"Yes, he is over five hundred years old, but five hundred years have passed. Does your Majesty have any heirs today?"
"Ziqi, I know what you want to say, but what does this have to do with me? I am just a golden order. My duty is to help Your Majesty and help the court suppress the demons and monsters causing trouble in our territory. Other things, I don't care."
Yue Ziqi didn't seem surprised by this.
He looked at Yuwen Hongguang and said to himself: "Your Majesty is more than five hundred years old, but not only has your Majesty had seven different queens, but no one has successfully given birth to an heir."
"Even if His Majesty has the highest cultivation level among all the emperors in our dynasty, his lifespan is undoubtedly beyond the limit that can be achieved by the normal cultivation level of the Three Realms."
"Perhaps it's not that Your Majesty has never given birth to an heir before, but..."
"Shut up!"
Before Yue Ziqi could finish speaking, Yuwen Hongguang interrupted him first.
After all, there are some things that the more you know, the faster you will die.
The current Daying Dynasty is not the same as before.
In the Daying Dynasty five hundred years ago, although the emperors also had some cultivation, they tended to be short-lived and their cultivation was not very high.
Therefore, it is necessary to rely on the three realm monks within the territory to help consolidate the rule.
But today is different from the past. Today's emperor Zhao Zhongming is not only the strongest emperor in the Daying Dynasty, but also the one with the longest lifespan.
After these five hundred years, Zhao Zhongming's control over the current Daying Dynasty has reached an almost perverted level.
The four major families in the past were also manipulated openly and secretly by Zhao Zhong, and they completely became vassals of the dynasty and were driven by it.
It can be said that the current Daying Dynasty is the hall of Zhao Zhongming.
Whatever he wants his subordinates to do, that's what his subordinates must do.
Under such circumstances, the Daying Dynasty's national strength has achieved unprecedented development in the past five hundred years.
It reached the peak of the Daying Dynasty in the five thousand years since its founding.
It can be said that Zhao Zhongming himself is almost the most talented and emperor-minded emperor that has ever appeared since the founding of Daying.
But such a flawless emperor now has a fatal weakness.
That is, he has not been able to give birth to an heir until now.
The only heir is the prince, Zhao Weiyang, who was born in the palace fifteen years ago.
But ten years ago, a fire swept through the palace.
The queen and the prince disappeared in the fire.
Although Zhao Zhongming said to the outside world that both the queen and Zhao Weiyang died in the fire.
But a few people knew that Queen Xiao and Zhao Weiyang were not actually dead.
With the help of some people, they escaped from the palace.
In the past ten years, Emperor Zhao Zhongming has lost his life in order to investigate this matter.
Yue Ziqi was imprisoned by Yuwen Hongguang because of this incident.
After all, he and Empress Xiao were childhood sweethearts.
There are enough reasons to help Queen Xiao.
But Yue Ziqi is a Third Realm monk and a disciple of one of the four major families.
Even if Zhao Zhongming wanted to touch him, it would not be easy.
The Daying Dynasty was not the dynasty of Zhao Zhongming alone.
If he touches a Third Realm monk for no reason, it will undoubtedly inspire rebellious psychology in other monk families.
If it weren't for the emergence of the demon now, and all the major families focusing all their energy on it, it would not be easy for Zhao Zhongming to lock up Yue Ziqi.
Facing the stubborn Yue Ziqi, Yuwen Hongguang didn't know whether it was because of his past friendship or for other reasons. In the end, he did not choose to continue asking and left silently.
The Demon-Suppressing Division, T-shaped room.
'The immortal emperor has no heirs...'
After listening to the information that Di Ting overheard, Lu Chen immediately fell into deep thought.
Because he never felt like he had caught something, but he almost missed it.
You must know that Lu Chen did so many things, in the final analysis, just to find the legendary 'wine bug'.
But neither the books in the hands of Cui Chengyun and other Gu cultivators, nor the Gu cultivators they captured and questioned later, had never heard of the wine bug.
It was as if this wine bug did not exist at all in the Daying Dynasty.
This may be because the existence of wine bugs is very special and cannot be accessed by ordinary people.
Either this kind of Gu insect does not exist at all, and it is Gu Yue Zhenxian who is playing tricks on them.
Lu Chen personally prefers the former.
After all, there is a difference between gathering 'Gu Yue' and 'Gu Yue'.
Lu Chen thought that this 'wine' might be 'Nine'.
Therefore, what they are really looking for is most likely the 'Nine Insects'.
However, these are just Lu Chen's speculations and have not been confirmed yet.
But Lu Chen had a feeling that he might know the truth soon.
And this key should be in the hands of Yue Ziqi in Room A.
After all, no matter how you look at it, it is almost impossible for an emperor who is blessed by the luck of the dynasty to live forever.
Lu Chen has only seen such a situation in one person.
That is the immortal Ji Ling'er.
But the other party's situation is a little different from the emperor of the Daying Dynasty.
Ji Ling'er herself has no cultivation, and all her power is based on the luck of the Great Yan Dynasty.
But according to Lu Chen's understanding, the emperor of the Daying Dynasty is a Gu cultivator at the peak of the third realm.
And because of special reasons, the life span of Gu cultivators is often not as good as that of normal Jindan stage cultivators.
Normal Jindan stage cultivators can live for about 500 years, but third-level Gu cultivators can only live for more than 300 years.
The difference of these two hundred years is that once the body and soul of the Gu cultivator begin to age, it may not be able to suppress the Gu worms in the body.
And those Gu worms don't want to die with the Gu cultivators.
Therefore, most Gu cultivators were generally miserable in previous years.
But the current Emperor Zhao Zhongming of Daying seems to have broken this limit.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen's eyes gradually became deep.
'Is there something that extended his life, or did he get something special? '
Lu Chen stood up and immediately prepared to find the answer himself.
The prison of the Demon Suppression Division, Room No. 5.
Swing!
As the cell was opened again, Yue Ziqi thought that Yuwen Hongguang had returned.
Just when he was really ready to let the other party give up.
Yue Ziqi was surprised to find that the person who came was a strange face he had never seen before.
"Who are you?"
Lu Chen did not answer, but walked in front of him and said calmly: "It doesn't matter."
"It doesn't matter?"
Just when Yue Ziqi was confused, he saw Lu Chen raised his hand and put it on his forehead.
"Because to a dead person, who I am is not important."
The next second, Lu Chen's external incarnation turned into a black smoke and entered Yue Ziqi's soul space along the center of his eyebrows.
From the beginning, Lu Chen never thought that Yue Ziqi would answer his questions calmly.
So he didn't want to waste time with Yue Ziqi at all.
Directly occupy Yue Ziqi's body and search his soul memory, this is what Lu Chen is going to do.
Although such means are a bit cruel, Lu Chen is not a pedantic person.
As long as he thinks that what he does is right, no matter how unorthodox it seems to outsiders, Lu Chen will not care.
Therefore, Lu Chen never sticks to the character of the righteous way.
No matter whether it is the righteous way or the devil way, as long as it is useful, it is a good way.
As the external incarnation entered Yue Ziqi's soul, he immediately came to a white space.
On the opposite side, Yue Ziqi in the soul state was a little weak, but different from him who was trapped with the demon nail outside.
In the soul space, he can use his three realms.
After all, this is his home ground!
Yue Ziqi looked at Lu Chen who suddenly broke into his soul, and his eyes became extremely cold.
"Get out of my body."
As he said that, an illusory spear appeared in his hand.
As the spear was in hand, Yue Ziqi's momentum began to rise.
An illusory white horse appeared behind him.
And that white horse was his natal Gu worm, Luoyunju Gu.
