Chapter 764 The Eight Lords Want to Cultivate a Saint Emperor?
The First Floor in the Sky.
When Xu Xiaoshou led his people back to his base and released everyone safely from Yuanfu, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
This means that the risks of the trade fair have come to an end for the time being.
On the other side of the Yunlun Mountains.
The Eighth Lord attracted the hatred of all the red-clothed and white-clothed people by himself.
But outsiders don't know what the result will be.
But at the level of the Eighth Sword Immortal, what others want to do and the results of what they do are obviously not something Xu Xiaoshou can guess.
Let's put these aside.
Xu Xiaoshou dared to bring people back to the First Floor in the Sky, which means that he felt that he had separated the identities of the Saint Slave Xu Xiaoshou and the Semi-Saint Heir Xu Deye well during the night battle in the Royal City.
Although there were too many things that happened in a hurry, there may be some details that were not handled well.
The Holy Spirit Temple is not full of stupid people. I believe that after careful consideration, some strange things can still be caught.
But after all, the details are harmless.
When the enemy comes, the generals will stop him; when the water comes, the earth will cover it.
As long as there is no problem in the general direction.
I believe that even if the Holy Spirit Temple can find some small flaws, it will not be able to directly convict.
There are many problems with the forces in the Royal City, and there is no shortage of forces like the First Floor in the Sky whose timing and motives are problematic.
It is the critical period of the Royal City Trial, and the Eight Zun An has summoned the Void Island in the Yunlun Mountains.
At this moment, the Holy Spirit Temple itself should be in a state of panic.
If they really want to call for punishment...
In terms of time, it is very likely to be after the Royal City Trial.
In terms of order, the First Floor in the Sky may not even be in the first sequence to be called for punishment. The ones who should really panic are the old forces in the Royal City.
As one of the parties involved in the night battle in the Royal City.
Xu Xiaoshou was indeed panicked afterwards, but he also understood this.
"This world never operates based on individuals."
Looking beyond the situation itself.
There are too many big forces in the Royal City to share the hatred of the Holy Spirit Temple.
If you really look at it this way, the first one to suffer will not be such an ordinary little organization as Tianshang Diyilou.
So.
If the enemy does not move, I will not move.
Just proceed step by step and take the next step.
…
"Creaky~"
The door of the training room was pushed open.
After driving away the exhausted Xiao Wanfeng, Xu Xiaoshou walked into the training room alone and saw the old man sitting in the room at a glance.
"Are you here?"
Cen Qiaofu waved to the young man, poured him a cup of tea, and motioned him to sit down.
As soon as Xu Xiaoshou sat down, he asked first: "If nothing unexpected happens, protecting me at the trade fair should not be your main task, right?"
In the streets, since Mei Siren took the night watchman's sword with two fingers, Cen Qiaofu appeared and still did not leave, but followed and protected all the way to Tianshang Diyilou.
It's called "protection".
But Xu Xiaoshou knew that with Mr. Siren there, he couldn't have any problems.
So Cen Qiaofu had to follow, and he must have brought other instructions from the Holy Slave Chief.
And the Eight Zun An should have set off after the communication with him, so this instruction was probably decided a long time ago.
Xu Xiaoshou really wanted to know.
That masked man arranged himself to this position step by step, what exactly was he trying to achieve in the end?
"You are really smart..." Cen Qiaofu did not hesitate to praise him, "much better than your bald master."
Xu Xiaoshou: "..."
"Let's talk about business!" He rolled his eyes and did not respond.
Cen Qiaofu put down the teacup and said with a smile: "The chief asked me to ask you a question, are you curious about why he asked you to come to the King's City to cause trouble?"
"Not curious." Xu Xiaoshou shook his head: "Isn't it the King's City Trial and the Void Island?"
"It's indeed these two."
Cen Qiaofu smiled and continued to ask: "But what is the King's City Trial and the Void Island in the end?"
Xu Xiaoshou was slightly stunned.
He was indeed a little curious about this.
But his original intention of going to Dongtianwang City was not to help Shengnu to the end.
"I'm not curious about this, and you don't need to say it. Making trouble is making trouble. I don't want to go on."
Xu Xiaoshou waved his hand and said with resistance: "You...well, our leader also said that if you give me power, I will have the greatest freedom. As long as the ultimate goal is consistent with Shengnu, so if you want to cheat me, you don't have to."
Cen Qiaofu was choked.
But he had already experienced Xu Xiaoshou's brain circuit, and he didn't care at the moment.
"Really don't want to understand?"
"No."
"Really?"
"Uh..."
Xu Xiaoshou looked at the old face opposite with a smile, and suddenly felt a chill on his back for no reason, feeling quite bad.
Yes!
What this old guy meant was "If you don't understand, you can only be led by others in a confused way"?
And instead of choosing "not understanding", you can't resist.
It's better to understand the fundamental reasons so that you can take fewer detours.
As for refusing to understand, it is equivalent to refusing the control of Ba Zun An... Xu Xiaoshou thought that he was not qualified at the moment.
He had experienced it many times because of Sang Lao's scheme.
If he really didn't understand this time, he would probably be confused and fall into the trap that Ba Zun An had dug in advance.
So Xu Xiaoshou pondered for a moment and changed his words: "Well, if you really want to say something, I'm not completely unwilling to listen."
Cen Qiaofu rolled his eyes and sneered, this arrogant little hedgehog...
He sorted out his thoughts and tapped his fingers and said: "Saint Palace Trial, Four Symbols Secret Realm, you have heard of it, right?"
"Hmm?" Xu Xiaoshou raised his eyebrows.
"If you get the top three in the Royal City Trial, you can enter the Four Symbols Secret Realm, and you must go." Cen Qiaofu said concisely.
Xu Xiaoshou laughed at the moment.
He knew that this was the path that the Eight Lords had planned for him after the battle in the Eight Palaces.
Originally, his plan was indeed like this.
But after all, plans cannot keep up with changes.
Xu Xiaoshou spread his hands and said helplessly:
"You were not present in the battle last night, so you probably don't know that I have broken through to the Grandmaster level."
"It's not that I don't want to suppress my cultivation. It's mainly because it's really hard for Xiantian to fight Taixu, and I was forced to break through the realm in the end."
"Grandmaster is easier to fight."
"I guess this should also be the method of Rao Jianxian. She doesn't want a genius like me to enter the King's City Trial and finally enter the Holy Palace Trial!"
Xu Xiaoshou said it indifferently.
Cen Qiaofu was so embarrassed by the show.
After the battle in the King's City last night, the name of the Holy Slave Xu Xiaoshou is now almost known to everyone. How could he not pay attention to it?
This kid is too good at pretending, isn't he?
Xiantian fighting Taixu...
Isn't it just relying on the Holy Blood and the Holy Statue?
Change place, change people.
As long as there is no worry about the King's City, open up the distance and fight alone, and add the Holy Blood to beat you to death, you know?
But Cen Qiaofu was just complaining about these in his mind.
He knew Xu Xiaoshou must know this too.
So after a pause, Cen Qiaofu spoke again, and the focus fell on Xu Xiaoshou's last unintentional guess.
"You are actually right. Rao Yaoyao is trying not to let you enter the trial of the King's City and the trial of the Holy Palace, so she used the Red Dust Sword to force you to break through the Grandmaster."
Xu Xiaoshou's eyes widened immediately.
"What did you say?"
"Being frightened, passive value, +1."
This time, Xu Xiaoshou was really scared.
He thought it was a coincidence...
Cen Qiaofu smiled and leaned back, slowly saying: "Do you think that you are a natural talent, and you can rely on your firm will to break through the predicament of the Red Dust when Rao Yaoyao's Red Dust Sword can cut the throne and cut the way?"
Xu Xiaoshou was stunned: "Isn't it like this?"
At this time, he was not polite.
Maybe for others, humility is a good virtue.
But Xu Xiaoshou really felt that he was able to break through the predicament of the mortal world because of his experience in the previous life.
In the world, if there is another innate person, it is impossible to get out of that predicament under Rao Yaoyao's mortal world sword.
Even the young Eight Lords may not be able to do it!
Xu Xiaoshou was very sure of this, so he didn't need to be humble, and at this time, Cen Qiaofu on the opposite side was obviously not worthy of Xu Xiaoshou's humility...
"You are wrong."
But at this time, Cen Qiaofu slowly shook his head and said seriously:
"The enlightenment of the mortal world is originally the best way for the practitioners of the mortal world sword to give themselves and the younger generation to assist in enlightenment."
"And I have to say, even if what you said is very annoying."
"But the name of the Saint Slave Xu Xiaoshou's natural talent is indeed well-known throughout the Holy Temple and even the headquarters of the Middle Domain before the battle last night!"
Hearing this, Xu Xiaoshou couldn't help but let out a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, he really felt like he was wanted, but secretly pleased because the bounty was too high.
Cen Qiaofu looked at this scene, and his mouth twitched.
"Please continue."
Xu Xiaoshou immediately stopped smiling.
He knew that the old woodcutter must have something more important to say, in the next "but".
And it was true.
Cen Qiaofu was not here to praise people, and his face suddenly became cold as he spoke.
"Being famous all over the world can certainly make people laugh, but it also means that you have been seen by the high-level officials of the Holy Temple, when you are still so weak."
Xu Xiaoshou's face froze, and he finally realized the real intention of the other party's words.
Cen Qiaofu sneered: "He can play with the throne of red clothes and the way of beheading, and he is in a "dark" organization like the Holy Slave. It is conceivable that if this person is put into the trial of the King's City or even the Four Symbols Secret Realm of the Holy Palace Trial, how big a thing can happen!"
Xu Xiaoshou keenly realized that something was wrong.
The old woodcutter mentioned the "Four Symbols Secret Realm" too many times.
This seems to be similar to the "Sacred Palace Trial" step that Ba Zun'an had to take in the path he had planned for him?
Xu Xiaoshou still remembered that when Ba Zun'an said that, he was still at the innate level, not even at the peak of the innate level.
But theoretically speaking, the Holy Spirit Hall could see his qualifications, and Ba Zun'an should be able to see it even more.
There was no reason for him to feel that he would still be at the innate level and unable to break through after such a long time away from the Holy Palace Trial.
At this time, Xu Xiaoshou's thoughts suddenly stagnated.
He thought about it seriously.
It seemed that the Eighth Sword Immortal only asked him to participate in the King City Trial and the Holy Palace Trial, but did not ask him to suppress his cultivation?
Suppressing cultivation...
This step was just a necessary step for the mainland genius to enter the Holy Palace.
But for Ba Zun'an, whether he suppressed his cultivation or not didn't seem to matter?
"It seems that you have figured out something." Cen Qiaofu raised the teacup and gave the young man opposite enough time to think.
Xu Xiaoshou frowned: "If what you said is true, Rao Yaoyao is indeed forcing me to break through to the Grandmaster level..."
Cen Qiaofu listened to this, moved the teacup that touched the corner of his lips away, and immediately interrupted:
"I don't need to lie to you, and I dare to directly affirm that your breakthrough to the Grandmaster level was deliberately done by Rao Yaoyao!"
"Because to enter the King's City Trial and the Holy Palace Trial, you must be below the Grandmaster level. If your cultivation level exceeds the limit, it can be found out at once."
"So, as long as Xu Xiaoshou, the Saint Slave who can fight against the Slashing Dao, breaks through to the Grandmaster level, he still insists on participating in the King's City Trial..."
"This is like carrying a banner past the enemy army, seeking death!"
Xu Xiaoshou was frightened and his face turned pale.
He thought that if he broke through to the Grandmaster level, the worst thing would be not to participate in the King's City Trial.
Anyway, he has a little sister from the Jinzhao lineage, and it seems that she is still looking for relatives. As long as it is verified later that they are really one of us and not here to cheat people.
Xu Xiaoshou even felt that he could skip the Holy Palace Trial and enter the famous Holy Palace Big Goose Lake to watch the fat geese playing in the water.
But listening to the old woodcutter's words...
Not only the Holy Spirit Temple felt that they would participate in the trial after breaking through the Grandmaster.
Ba Zun'an also felt that he would participate.
At this time, did he, Xu Xiaoshou, also feel that he should participate?
Xu Xiaoshou fell into deep thought, and said for a long time: "I roughly understand what, the result is not the goal, the process is what you want?"
Cen Qiaofu corrected: "It's not 'you', it's 'us'."
Xu Xiaoshou pondered, turned his head and asked: "What will happen in the Royal City Trial, or the Holy Palace Trial?"
Cen Qiaofu smiled and pointed to the ceiling: "Look for yourself!"
Xu Xiaoshou raised his eyes and looked at the dark ceiling.
He realized that Cen Qiaofu was not asking him to look at the ceiling.
"Perception" a picture, the world outside the first building in the sky is clearer.
Above...
Xu Xiaoshou looked at the sky above, where the towering sky city, whose movements had become much slower, was silent for a moment.
Before the King City Trial, a Void Island could be summoned.
Could the Holy Palace Trial also be a big move by the big guys?
"Why should I participate in the Holy Palace Trial?"
Xu Xiaoshou was really curious at this moment, "It seems that there is no need for that, right? The 'Four Symbols Secret Realm' you mentioned is the trial site of this Holy Palace Trial. What is its mystery?"
Cen Qiaofu did not reply, but asked back: "Why do you want to enter the Holy Palace?"
"I..."
Xu Xiaoshou was speechless for a moment.
He thought of what Sang Lao said.
At first, it was Sang Lao who gave him this expectation, which made him want to enter the Holy Palace and see the "Big Goose Lake" which has one more word than "Ehu".
Later, Sang Lao left, and Ba Zun'an took over this expectation and gave him the expectation of entering the Holy Palace, entering this place where saints can be cultivated to practice, and then he can use this springboard to jump to the Guizhe Holy Mountain to save Sang Lao.
But, is it true that only the Holy Palace can train saints?
Cen Qiaofu smiled and helped Xu Xiaoshou ask the question in his heart: "Do you think that if the chief wants to train you into a half-saint, will he be unable to do it?"
Xu Xiaoshou was really stumped by the question.
If the protagonist of this question is not Ba Zun'an, it may not only be Xu Xiaoshou. If outsiders hear it, they will also laugh and sigh that Cen Qiaofu's question is too arrogant.
However, if it is Ba Zun'an, it seems... no problem?
Cen Qiaofu asked again: "Then do you think half-saint is enough? Does the chief only want to train a half-saint?"
Xu Xiaoshou was stunned again.
Is half-saint enough?
There may be more than one half-saint in Guizhe Holy Mountain.
If he really wants to climb the mountain, Ba Zun'an also wants to climb the mountain, and everyone will find their own place.
How can it be enough to rely on only one half-saint?
Cen Qiaofu didn't listen to the answer, but he understood all the answers. Finally, he asked: "So what do you think the chief wants to train you to? Is it... the Holy Emperor?"
With a buzz, Xu Xiaoshou's mind suddenly went blank.
Holy Emperor...
To be honest, Xu Xiaoshou had never thought about it before.
He even thought about the word "Holy Emperor" very few times!
The chapters of "I Have Passive Skills" will continue to be updated,
