Imperial Capital.

The extremely prosperous ancient capital, the heart of the ancient oriental country. After thousands of years, it still stands today.

Under the gray-white domes, dragon-like trains come and go, carrying groups of guests to this city. They are either traveling or working hard, and their faces are all full of longing, which is incompatible with Lin Zhiqiang.

He stepped on the platform and raised his head high. The steel plates were spliced ​​together, covering the entire sky and earth tightly, shielding this transportation hub from wind and rain. But it was cold, like a giant beast lying on the ground, watching thousands of people indifferently.

People come and go. After being in this city for so long, the man's sense of alienation has not diminished at all.

He belongs to the mountains.

But he failed to resist the temptation and became greedy, so this place became his prison.

"Mr. Lin?" an old voice suddenly sounded.

The man was stunned, and following the voice, he saw an old man in black standing tall and tall not far away.

"Master asked me to pick up Mr. Lin. It seems that you have lived up to the master's trust." The old man turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation. There was an inconspicuous passage, and two security personnel stood beside the door.

When you walk into the passage, there is a red carpet on the ground and a crystal chandelier above your head.

This is the VIP channel, far away from the crowds, and someone will guide him. But Lin Zhiqiang does not feel any satisfaction, only the chill of being held in the palm of his hand.

As the last afterglow disappeared, night enveloped the sky, no stars could be seen, and the dark curtain was slightly reddishly reflected by the light.

In the cold night, this is an extremely dazzling pearl, it is the center of everything.

Even though there are many tall buildings here and the buildings are undulating, there is one building that stands out among them. It is completely black, as noble and aloof as black crystal. People who know the inside story yearn for it, respect it, but stay away from it.

On the top floor of the building, a man was wearing an elegant black coat. He was overlooking the night view of the imperial capital. The lights of this thousand-year-old city were reflected in his eyes, shining like bright stars on the horizon.

"Mr. Huang brought people here, and he seems to have done a good job." The man smiled.

"Where are the things?" Behind the man was a petite girl. She looked at the man in black in front of her, with neither joy nor sadness in her eyes.

The girl asked for it without any politeness in her words. If others knew that someone could talk to "King of Hell" like this, their jaws would probably drop.

The man didn't pay attention and threw a red flake to the girl.

The girl caught it and held the item in her palm.

"How about, can you confirm what it is?"

"They are the rising creatures. I am afraid they are still the most powerful ones at present." The girl answered, but her eyes never left the scales in her hand.

"You can tell it at a glance?" The man raised his eyebrows, "You know, I first showed it to the group of researchers under my command. After playing with the instruments for a long time, they told me that the owner of this scale had a head and body between 20 and 25 meters long.

I don’t even know what type of snake it is, whether it is venomous or not, and it needs in-depth research.”

"This kind of existence has broken through the existing rules. Of course your researchers can't understand it." The girl was still looking at the snake scales, the love on her delicate face completely unhidden.

"What are you going to do with that person?" She gently rubbed her scales and thought of something.

"Of course, the previous debt has been written off. I am not a person who breaks his word. Since he really brought us what we need, we can just let him go." The man smiled calmly.

"Gu Yan, do you believe this?"

"Then little ancestor, what do you want to do?" Gu Yan asked back, Gu Chuchu, this is the clan girl who grew up with him. Every time they sneeze, they know who is scolding each other behind their backs. The joy in the girl's eyes is not fake, this girl

A little girl who has lost emotions since childhood rarely encounters things that make her emotionally ups and downs.

"Go to the Taihang Mountains and find that big guy." The girl finally raised her head, a silver light flashed in the depths of her eyes. "We need a guide."

"They have tested the scales of that thing with the firearms they have. The strength is extraordinary. Without heavy firearms, it is equivalent to peeling off the dead skin of the opponent. We are looking for a medium. There is no need to conflict with this kind of thing."

"But why don't you think about how glorious the medium that can create such a powerful existence is? Is it the same as the sesame-sized waste you found?" The girl's eyes were even brighter, almost like overflowing with joy.

It poured out like mercury.

The man was silent for a while and then turned around. Once Gu Chuchu set her sights on something, she didn't care even if she got a bloody head for it. This was a side effect of the immature powerful medium she had taken when she was young.

If the lost emotions cannot be replenished, they will turn into terrible obsessions.

"We're almost certain." Finally, he said quietly.

"It depends on how many people go."

"Half of it is in my hand."

"So, how many people do you accept can come back safely?"

"One person is enough." The man sighed.

The girl smiled softly, "That's eighty percent."

…………

Deep in the Taihang Mountains, stars and rivers are dotted.

Li Xi'an was entrenched on a smooth rock in the deep stream, silent, letting the waterfall on the cliff wash over his body. In the center of the winding snake's body was a faint blue flower bud, growing on the rock of the waterfall. The flower bud was filled with white mist, revealing the

chill.

This is the medium in the fox's memory, and she rises after eating the ripe fruit of the medium.

This is the southwest side of the mountain range, which it rarely sets foot in. If it weren't for looking for the so-called medium in the fox's memory, it might not have appeared here at all. But before Li Xi'an arrived, the territory near this blue flower had an owner.

, is a golden leopard. There is more than one so-called vector on this strange flower. The fox eats it and leaves, leaving another fruit gradually ripening. It seems that this increasingly mature vector has attracted powerful predators nearby.

Although the golden leopard was powerful, it could not put up any resistance in front of Li Xi'an. When it came back from hunting, it saw the red figure entrenched under the deep waterfall in the distance and then turned around and disappeared.

Li Xi'an looked at the blue flower bud surrounded by its body, thinking about the difference between the rising creature that the fox understood and it.

It has never eaten a medium, which it can be sure of. But it is obvious that the medium is the key to the rising creatures. The rising creatures have their own path, and walking deeper along the road will produce terrible changes. No one goes to the depths of the road.

, Li Xi'an himself is the most powerful being in these mountains, and this is what he created. He has never eaten the medium, so he naturally doesn't know which path he will take.

The big snake groaned, and Li Xi'an was distressed. It knew too little.

He seems to know nothing except being able to fight the creatures in this mountain. There is too little information available in the mountains. If he could turn into a human form and walk in the market, he might understand what is happening in this world.

Medium, medium... maybe you will understand a lot if you eat a medium.

Li Xi'an looked at the blue bud and shook his head. This medium had no attraction for it. If it weren't for observing the maturity of the medium, it would have left long ago. When it was not sure whether a creature could only eat the only key medium, it

Not impulsive.

After the flower matures, he will go to the mountains to find some media. Li Xi'an planned this way. It is better to actively pursue it than to sleep on a tree.

After estimating the time, the big snake lowered his head.
