Chapter 279 Visit

Several days passed.

The ancient holy king of the Holy Flame Realm is lying in a wheelchair.

Eight cloudy compound eyes observed the sanatorium.

This is his new cell.

If it were before, it would be impossible for him to live in such a place, and it would be impossible for him to die.

But... today is different from the past.

Although he spoke very tough words to those young people outside, only he knew...

What he said was just big words.

If he were the old man, he would fight to the end without hesitation.

But now, he was locked up here, pretending to be unwilling to give in, but actually he didn't dare to do anything.

His thoughts gradually drifted back to the battle many years ago.

Actually, it was said to be a battle... but it only took one move.

Just one move.

The absolute strength gap leaves no room for resistance.

The holy king's body couldn't help but tremble.

Fear, deep into his bones, ruthlessly enveloped his mind...

This fear even gave him the idea of ​​taking a step back. Even though he had already left the battlefield, he still had great fear because of the memories at this moment. He even felt that... his feet were a little weak...

The firm heart of a king, the perseverance to be brave and diligent, and the fearless confidence all collapsed in one move.

His spine was directly broken, and even his fists were a little weak.

The golden... giant beast that called itself a tiger, just glanced down at him and easily broke all his pride, turning him into a trembling maggot.

A king, a warrior, doesn't even have the courage to stand up, what else can he do?

Just when he was immersed in sad and desperate memories, he didn't realize that two members of the Holy Flame tribe were visiting him under his nursing home.

It was Li Qi and Shen Shuibi.

Now the two of them look exactly like the Holy Flame clan, perfectly disguised with illusions.

The Holy Flame Tribe is a humanoid race. Of course, it is not very similar in fact. It can only be said that it is barely classified as such.

They are actually some kind of insectoid, resembling some kind of large beetle with long, slender limbs.

It always makes a buzzing sound of flapping wings. Its four slender legs support the segmented body of the Holy Flame Clan. Its carapace opens and closes, and a pair of claws protrude from its mouth.

Their hands are not fingers, but only have two clamps, but they are very flexible and have thorns on them. They can easily grasp and pick up objects, and even use swords and knives.

Yes, this is the weapon of the Holy Flame Clan, but it is not a sword in the usual sense.

They are born with a sword, which is the horn that grows on their forehead when they are born. It is also one of the hardest materials in the entire Holy Flame World.

When they reach adulthood, this horn will fall off and then become their weapon, and their fighting tradition comes from this.

Li Qi is also familiar with this point now, because in the past few days, he has spent time collecting the social form, physiological characteristics, and history of the Shengyan tribe.

After understanding this, they began to infiltrate.

Shen Shuibi cast a spell, turning the two of them into the appearance of the Holy Flame Clan, and then acted here.

This was their second day trying to integrate into the Holy Flame Clan.

Based on Li Qi's investigation results in various places, including consulting books and asking old people, he learned a lot of things.

Especially the arrival of the immortals a hundred years ago.

Originally, this kind of thing was difficult, but fortunately, Li Qi didn't need to learn the language and could easily integrate into it.

Yes, the current lingua franca of the Holy Flame Clan is the language of the world, which is something similar to ancient Chinese characters.

After one or two generations of baptism, the original Shengyan language was no longer spoken here, so Li Qi's standard language even made these Shengyan people think that he was very 'foreign', causing communication to become difficult. Much smoother.

Speaking of this, we have to mention the origin of their names.

The Holy Flame Clan is called the Holy Flame Clan because of the existence of the ‘Holy Flame’.

This is the same as the earth oil in the earth oil world. It is a specialty of the holy flame world. Both the race and the world are named after it.

The Holy Flame is actually the embodiment of the spirit of the Holy Flame people. This kind of beetle has a special talent, that is, they can easily achieve 'resonance'.

This may be due to their evolutionary process. In the past many years, people from the Holy Flame Tribe would gather together at specific times and then use the wings on their backs to make the same sound. This should come from the original gregarious nature of their ancestors. It is possible that they were gathered for breeding.

Due to the lack of body language, eyes, and facial expressions, the Holy Flame Tribe relies on voice for almost all emotional expression.

The sound generators that vibrate the carapace and wings behind them produce chirps that are both their language and their expressions.

Almost all their emotional expressions depend on this.

And the sound... is said to have resonance.

Through resonance, they can coordinate their emotions to a level where everyone resonates with each other. Such a highly resonant spirit will lead them to form a strange collective.

This product is produced by the spiritual resonance of the Holy Flame tribesmen. It is like a dark golden flame, but it actually has no temperature, just because of the shape.

Producing a Holy Flame will cause this group of Holy Flame tribesmen to fall into a state of weakness, just like a side effect of excitement.

Something like the Holy Flame can greatly enhance the mental activity of a certain Holy Flame tribesman, allowing him to enter a certain mysterious state in a short period of time, as if he has integrated into the spirit of everyone.

In this state, their reaction speed, learning ability, and 'comprehension' will all be improved.

In Li Qi's words, this thing is an aggregate of 'spiritual energy'.

It is the ‘god’ of Jing Qi Shen.

The Holy Flame Clan is born with the ability to gather the energy of everyone.

And this thing is of little use to other paths, but it is a great supplement to Shinto.

It is a pure waste to give it to the Holy Flame tribe. They can only use it as a stimulant, but for the Shinto monks, it is a treasure that consolidates the foundation and is an excellent building material for building the Kingdom of God.

Therefore, Li Qi judged that the Holy Flame Realm has a high economic value, and this economic value is reflected in the Holy Flame Clan itself, not in this world.

During this inquiry process, Li Qi learned about the existence of the ancient 'Holy King' of the Holy Flame Clan.

So, that's why they're in this sanatorium.

He held out an ID to the security guard.

The material is made from dried rhizomes of local specialty plants. The Shengyan clan often uses this thing as an information carrier, similar to the function of paper.

"Well, yes, we are here to visit the Holy King. This is our ID. We are historians and want to interview those who witnessed the incident." Li Qi vibrated his wings skillfully and made a sound.

"History...don't all those who study history study the history of the immortals now? Why do you come here to study this? Can't you get funding?" The security guard looked at Li Qi's ID suspiciously.

The certificate must be genuine.

Of course, I mean 'true' in the physical sense.

The Holy Flame Tribe has not mastered the anti-piracy technology at the causal level. They still use the method of seals and anti-counterfeiting marks.

In front of Li Qi, who really knows Yun, this kind of anti-theft is useless.

Moreover, Li Qi discovered that in these worlds outside the territory, the power of Zhenzhi Yun was terrifyingly strong!

Without the suppression of heavenly law in the world, Li Qi can easily penetrate many defense mechanisms. Not only does the range become much larger, but the penetration power also becomes stronger.

However... the function has not changed, it is just more detailed and the scope is larger.

Li Qi easily made two certificates that were exactly the same as the real ones based on the other party's anti-theft measures. There was no difference between them except that they were fake.

"We all need to study and confirm each other. I came here this time to study the twists and turns in the history of the Holy Flame clan and the vast contrast in the history of the immortals." Li Qi said with a smile.

This direction is more in line with the current situation of the Holy Flame Clan.

Hearing this, the security guard from the Shengyan clan suddenly understood, nodded, and then handed over the certificate: "So that's it. It's time to compare it carefully so that those young people who worship the ancients can wake up. Please come in."

Li Qi flapped his wings and made a joyful sound.

This is the 'laughing' expression, just with your voice.

Shen Shuibi said nothing and just followed quietly.

Even if she became a member of the Holy Flame clan, she still had no fear of society, so she just followed behind.

After getting his ID back and exchanging pleasantries, Li Qi walked into the nursing home.

He looked around and saw that the construction style did not look like that of the Tang Dynasty.

But there is also a very obvious flavor of Tianxia architecture. The sculptures of various house-holding animals, flowers, plants and trees are all the patterns of Tianxia architecture.

The erosion is very serious.

In just one generation, these Shengyan clan members have completely transformed into the world's orthodoxy. Their customs, etiquette, values, and even their cultivation techniques and aesthetics have all shifted in the direction of the world.

"It's not from the Tang Dynasty, but it still has some humanity. Where is it from?" Li Qi frowned and asked Shen Shuibi.

This conversation is completed through sound transmission into the secret, so there is no need to worry about outsiders hearing it.

"Shinto, the arrangement of these house-suppressing beasts is the method of Shinto, but not all of it. Some of the mixed atmosphere of humane and witchcraft is really strange. This combination is a bit strange." Shen Shuibi observed the surroundings and analyzed The source of these aesthetics.

As the saying goes, you can see the leopard in the tube. You can get a glimpse of the path of this suddenly arrived 'immortal'. You can get a glimpse of it from these aspects.

"The Tao of God, the way of humanity, and the way of witchcraft are intertwined. Well... this combination is a bit like Baiyue." Li Qi pondered and said.

The land of Baiyue is a place where shamans and humans fight, but at the same time there are a large number of landscape gods.

"Baiyue? Indeed, is a certain king of Baiyue trying to take root in a resource world here? After all, the Holy Flame seems to be of great economic value." Shen Shuibi said thoughtfully.

"Not necessarily, let's take a look first, but the Holy Flame is indeed a good thing, and this world can fight for it." Li Qi said.

According to the book, not everything outside the territory is actually useful. Most of the world is very mediocre. Even the specialties are just a novelty. There are only a few that are really useful to the world.

It was really a stroke of luck to be able to encounter a specialty product of this level like the Holy Flame at once. Li Qi felt that this must be brought about by his own good luck.

Moreover, after coming to the Holy Flame Realm, his shining golden luck disappeared.

It can be seen that this is the guidance given to him by Zhong Minglou.

Therefore, Li Qi felt that this world was very valuable and he had to fight for it.

Therefore, he learned a lot about the history of this world and finally found the existence of the 'Holy King'.

He felt that this was a good place to start.

Even if this world has been occupied by another organization from all over the world, things like horse racing and staking are based on their own abilities.

This is not a place within the world where everyone can discuss things harmoniously under the rules.

This is outside the territory, and it is a wild world group.

No one cares.

While the two were talking, they soon came to the innermost bedroom of the nursing home.

Bang, bang, bang.

Li Qi gently knocked on the door three times.

Then, soon there was the sound of walking inside.

Then, the door opened, and inside was a female member of the Holy Flame tribe.

It is easy to distinguish this point. Although there is no physical difference between men and women in the Holy Flame tribe, and the faces and mouthparts of these beetles have no gender characteristics, women do not have wings.

"Excuse me? Who are you two?" She said in...well, a fluent world language.

Zhang Lila was a little confused, someone would actually come to visit the Holy King?

"Hello, we are historians." Li Qi repeated his old trick and took out his ID.

However, this time he changed his rhetoric: "We want to learn about ancient knowledge and feel that we want to organize the ancient history belonging to the Holy Flame Clan for research and publicity, so we want to interview the Holy King."

He changed his words because Li Qi knew very well that for this ancient holy king, only such words could be accepted by the other party.

If you continue to say that you are here to promote the great immortal culture, you will probably be kicked out.

Li Qi is very familiar with this routine of speaking human words to others and lying to ghosts.

"Interview?" Zhang Lila took the certificate and looked at it.

It does have formal anti-counterfeiting marks and seals.

However, she was still a little wary, so she said: "I'm sorry... The Holy King is currently resting and does not accept private interviews. Please submit your application to a formal organization. After we receive the invitation, we will notify you of the interview."

However, before she finished speaking, suddenly, a voice came from inside.

The holy king took the initiative and said:

"Lila, let them come in. I want to see what young people who are interested in the history of the Holy Flame tribe look like."

Zhang Lila made a buzzing sound, which was the ‘frown’ of the Holy Flame Clan.

However, since the Holy King had spoken, it was hard for her to say anything.

"Then please come in with me. The Holy King is not in good health, so be careful." After she finished speaking, she made way for Li Qi and Shen Shuibi to enter.

Li Qi and others went in and saw the old Shengyan tribesman sitting in a wheelchair.

This is the ancient holy king.

The Lord of the Sixth Rank World.
