In the dusky Yellow Valley, the air seemed to have frozen.
It was as if PEI Ling was being pressed down by an invisible giant hand. He could not help but kneel on the ground. He could not even move his fingers. His skin was torn and his flesh was bleeding. It was a hideous and terrifying sight.
In front of him, on the mountain-like throne, there was the skeleton of a giant.
The skeleton's lower jaw opened and closed, and its voice was like thunder, " "Now, swear to be loyal to me forever."
"Offer up half of your soul to show your sincerity."
"Not only can I let you live, but I can also grant you the position of the future sect master of the sage sect!"
His thunderous voice reverberated throughout the entire Valley.
The remaining broken walls turned into ashes in an instant.
Hearing this, PEI Ling's heart was instantly filled with shock. The will in the remains ... Was definitely not the original giant!
"Who ... Are you?" PEI Ling asked with great difficulty. He was now confined by an invisible force, like a bug sealed in Amber. This was only the pressure released by the other party. Once the other party really made a move, he would probably be reduced to ashes in an instant, not even leaving behind a corpse!
"I am the SU Li Scripture." The voice within the remains said calmly, " you can call me ... Sect master. &Quot;
The SU Li Sutra ... Sect master?
PEI Ling's heart trembled and he blurted out, &Quot; the sage sect's sect master?! &Quot;
The giant's remains in the ancient ruins of the foreign tribe was the Grandmaster of the sage sect?
What was going on?
It was wrong!
If the Grand sect master really wanted to deal with a mere core formation cultivator like him, he would have done so in the sect! Why did he choose this time?
It was su zhenhe!
Su zhenhe was a disciple of the SU clan, and the current sect master was also a member of the SU clan.
It was su zhenhe who asked the sect master to help.
At the thought of this, PEI Ling asked with great difficulty, " "Su zhenhe?"
"A mere su zhenhe isn't worthy of me personally taking action for him." Su Lijing said indifferently, " I appeared because of you. &Quot;
Seeing PEI Ling's confusion, he turned his huge monastic robe and looked around at the dusky Yellow Valley and desert. He then said slowly, " this place is the inheritance of the Dragon count clan's battle King. &Quot;
&Quot; after the battle God died, he left behind his inheritance and will to support the other races 'heaven's favorites. &Quot;
&Quot; a hundred years ago, when the historical site appeared, glory sect sensed the existence of the inheritance. They pretended not to know and spread the news of the inheritance to attract the geniuses of the foreign races to come and try to obtain it. &Quot;
"The 10 heaven's favorites from the outer sect competition who kneeled on the ground to congratulate you on winning the championship are from here."
Realization dawned on PEI Ling. He had never thought about the origins of those ten foreign races. He had thought that they were obtained by an elder of the sage sect when he went out.
After all, the wife of the sect master of the heavy sea sect had sneaked into the territory of the five great righteous sects and massacred mortals. It seemed reasonable for the others to capture some foreign races and bring them back to the sect.
He didn't expect that they would use this ancient site to lure the enemy in and then attack.
"I have a hobby, and that is I need a large number of foreign race heaven's favorites." Su Li Jin continued, " therefore, I spent some effort to replace the will of the battle King and personally pass down the inheritance to him, selecting the foreign race's prodigies to enter this place. &Quot;
Best
PEI Ling's pupils constricted as he listened. So that was the case!
Replacing the will of the battle King and personally selecting the geniuses of the other races ...
In other words, ever since the news of the battle King's inheritance had spread, all of the foreign geniuses who came here, no matter how noble they were, how talented they were, or how high the hopes of their race were placed on them, would be selected by the sect master like cabbages.
Those that caught their eye were directly taken into the heavy iron sect as servants;
If they didn't like it, they would either kill or release it to dispel the outsiders 'suspicions and ensure that there would still be more heaven's favorites coming in the future ...
No.
The SU Li Scripture could not possibly be so kind.
Those heaven's favorites who were released might have already become his puppets.
The inheritances left behind by the battle Kings of the Dragon count clan were originally for the sake of increasing the strength of their descendants.
However, in the past few years, it had instead become a stable source for the SU Li Scripture to obtain foreign servants and spies.
Moreover, those who were qualified to sneak into the demon sect's territory to obtain the inheritance were definitely the outstanding ones among the foreign tribes.
Even though they were young now, they were unable to hold great power.
However, after a few years, when this group of people grew up, to glory sect, no, to the SU Li Scripture ... Those outsiders would probably become their slaves without even knowing it!
What a big move!
At this moment, Su Li Jing continued,"Since you've arrived here today, you have the right to choose for me."
"I know that you were brought into the sect by the saintess, and the Li clan is very generous to you."
"But you have to understand that the Li clan is only doing this to make use of your talent and qualifications to facilitate the monopoly of power by the nine-ah li clan."
&Quot; although Holy Sons and holy virgins have the possibility of inheriting my position as sect master ... &Quot;
&Quot; but the nine Ali clan has their saintess before them. How can they allow you to overstep your authority and become the sect master? "
After saying that, an ancient jade slip slowly floated up from the long table among the miscellaneous items. Then, a divine sense quickly shot out from the eye sockets of the giant's remains and entered the Jade slip.
"Ding dong! "An unfamiliar cultivation technique has been detected. The system is recording it for you ..." At the same time, the system's notification sound rang in PEI Ling's ears.
Su Lijing continued, " this is the [ mahākā Yapa scroll ]. It was an opportunity that I obtained many years ago. It is a celestial level cultivation technique. Using it to form a nascent soul can make the nascent soul purer and more lively. It can become a top-tier choice among celestial souls. &Quot;
"With your current cultivation, it's suitable."
&Quot; if you cultivate this technique, after you become the Holy Son, you can even refine the Holy maiden into your furnace. From now on, you will forget all the past matters, Dao Xin's family, and everything else. From now on, you can do whatever you want with her! &Quot;
"At that time, the power of the sage sect will be controlled by the Li clan on the surface, but in reality, it will be up to you."
&Quot; the ninth Ali clan will not give you such a future. Neither will the pillow stone su clan, let alone the Fuguang Sihong clan! &Quot;
"Only I can bestow it!"
The authority of the sect master ...
PEI Ling's heart trembled slightly. The Li clan supported him as the Holy Son, but they would never hand the sect master's position to him. He was very clear about this.
Right now, the sect master had given him the power of the sect master, which was a big deal.
However, PEI Ling did not intend to agree.
The reason was simple. The sect master was generous, but he wanted him to take the great vow of the heart's devil and hand over half of his soul ... In this way, even if he seemed to be in power, wouldn't he still be a puppet of the SU Li Sutra?
So far, the Li Group had provided him with a lot of rich resources, but they had not controlled him like this.
Originally, PEI Ling did not have any insatiable thoughts about the position of sect master.
Being supported by the Li clan to the position of the Saint was definitely better and more secure than being controlled by the SU Li Scripture and becoming the sect master.
Most importantly, he couldn't possibly harm Senior Sister li for the sake of the so-called sect master's power.
At the thought of this, PEI Ling neither agreed nor rejected. Instead, he suddenly asked, " "May I ask, sect master, if I didn't choose this mission, but the other two, what would have happened?"
