Chapter 196: Inviting Gods (8000)

As old rivals, whether it was the God of War Bai Zhong or the deputy leader of the Supreme Tribe, they all knew the character of King Sheng You.

There is a saying that goes, the one who knows you best is always your opponent, so at this moment, they knew why King Sheng You said those words.

Provoke, anger.

It is that simple, when a person is provoked and angered, it is easy to lose some judgment.

Only by ensuring absolute calmness can we analyze and deal with it appropriately, and now, they need to be calm.

So for King Sheng You's deliberate provocation just now, although the faces of the people present were gloomy, there was still no change.

King Shengyou saw that everyone looked calm, shrugged his shoulders, and exhaled from his nose: "No blood, no fun."

The deputy leader of the Supreme Tribe, Gu Muyin, said in a gloomy and cold voice: "Let's discuss the matter of this relic first, like Bai Zhong."

"Relics?" King Shengyou laughed: "What bullshit relics, I found it first, what reason do you have to occupy my things?"

Bai Zhong sneered: "The relics are originally ownerless. You want to monopolize them today, I'm afraid it's not good, and you can't. Among the three major forces present today, whoever wants to monopolize them will face the siege of the other two major forces."

The relics are extremely important. No matter how big or small the relics are, they are extremely rare for those who enter the relics.

Besides, none of the three major forces present can stand each other. They are incompatible with each other and want to destroy each other immediately. Why let the other party monopolize them when there is a benefit?

It's just a matter of one sentence. As long as the other party lives worse than you, you will be comfortable. If the other party lives better than you, it won't work.

Xu Bai has not spoken all the time. After hearing the conversation between these people, he looked at King Shengyou.

He was also thinking about how King Shengyou should answer.

The current situation is indeed deadlocked enough. Even if it is King Shengyou, it is estimated that he is not sure that he can defeat the other two forces. After all, everyone's level is about the same. Even if he is weaker, it won't be much weaker.

After Bai Zhong said this, King Shengyou suddenly laughed, and the style of painting changed. He was no longer so strong: "How can this king be the kind of person who monopolizes, you are right, whoever wants to monopolize will face the siege of the other two parties, am I right?"

Bai Zhong and Gu Muyin looked at each other, and saw a trace of caution in each other's eyes.

King Shengyou would never be so easy to talk to on weekdays, but why did he suddenly become a good man now? According to King Shengyou's character, he should at least scold him.

The more this happens, the more cautious we must be. We are all experienced people. How can we trust each other so easily?

"What do you think?" Bai Zhong asked.

In any case, the current situation is that we must continue to talk about this topic. The ruins will appear soon, and we can't just wait like this.

If we can talk about it, then talk about it. If we can't talk about it, then don't play, and no one will want to go in.

Bai Zhong thought that if he wanted to open this door, he should at least open the topic. After all, if no one really wants to go in, it would be a waste of an important resource.

Gu Muyin didn't say anything. In fact, he also agreed with this idea.

But agreeing doesn't mean that he can stand Bai Zhong. In fact, none of the three parties present can stand each other.

The eyes were cast on King Shengyou. Obviously, everyone was waiting for King Shengyou's next words.

King Shengyou said with a smile: "How about this, since no one wants to quit, let's go in together. Life or death has nothing to do with you. After entering, you can live if you want to live, and you can die if you want to die. Anyway, everyone is content with fate, and no one can blame anyone else."

Bai Zhong frowned and did not answer. He was thinking about the meaning of this sentence.

"Heh." Gu Muyin said: "The ruins have an upper limit on the number of people. We don't know how many people will be needed next, and everyone here is a military formation. Then I will send the strongest subordinate, plus elite soldiers and horses, isn't it a sure win?"

King Shengyou shrugged and said: "I have said that life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by heaven. If you can send the strongest soldiers and the strongest subordinates, I can also send them, so it depends on who plays the best chess. Anyway, there is one thing, if you die, don't blame others."

After the voice fell, the whole audience fell into silence.

Whether it was Gu Muyin or Bai Zhong, they knew in their hearts that this was the best way at the moment.

As for them going in by themselves, it was impossible. They would never go in by themselves.

If they really went in, the other side could have taken advantage of this period to invade in a big way. Without them, wouldn't it be leaving the rear empty to others? No one would do such a thing that puts the cart before the horse.

King Shengyou's tone became unfriendly: "Why are you hesitating? If you are a man, just give me a straight answer. Are you willing or not?"

Bai Zhong and Gu Muyin came back to their senses.

Gu Muyin suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to a place: "I agree with you, but there is a condition, he can't go in."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes followed the direction pointed by Gu Muyin and fell on a handsome young man.

Xu Bai was originally a spectator, but now the fire was burning on him, and he couldn't help but narrow his eyes: "What do you mean?"

He was still thinking about how to get in and make a profit, but now, the other party didn't seem to want him to go in.

Gu Muyin said coldly: "Do you think I don't know your identity, Prince Xu, or the bloody butcher?"

"Blood your mother!" Xu Bai cursed without hesitation.

They have become hostile forces, and now they call him this nickname, who else should they curse?

"Hiss..."

On the side of the Supreme Tribe, the group of people in that tribe all took a breath of cold air.

This is the deputy leader of the Supreme Tribe. To put it bluntly, his identity is the same as that of King Shengyou, but now he is being scolded by a young man, and the scolding is so direct, and he just curses his mother.

Even on the side of the Great Yue Kingdom, many generals gave Xu Bai a look, which meant that you are really a warrior.

Oh?

No?

Someone reacted and remembered the identity that Gu Muyin had called Xu Bai.

Lord Xu?

Bloody butcher?

Damn it!

At this moment, everyone at the scene knew clearly.

Gu Muyin was suddenly scolded, and his face was full of confusion. He didn't understand why he was scolded at all, and he couldn't help but put his hand on the long knife at his waist.

The knife was faintly dark red, and it was obvious that he didn't know how many people he had chopped.

In this life, who dared to scold him except people of the same level?

Before he could get angry, another voice sounded.

"Blood your mother." Xu Bai continued to scold: "Old man, what are you looking at? What do you want?"

As he said, Xu Bai led the horse and leaned towards King Shengyou.

Are you kidding?

Anyway, everyone is hostile, so what's wrong with scolding a few words? Besides, with King Shengyou here, can anything happen to him?

He had not forgotten that this barbarian had sent a tribal expert to assassinate him. This was already clear. What was wrong with cursing for fun?

King Shengyou stared at Gu Muyin and said slowly: "Are you going to do it?"

Gu Muyin took a deep breath and finally calmed down.

At this time, Bai Zhong next to him finally spoke.

"It turned out to be Prince Xu. I was blind just now and didn't see Prince Xu coming. If it's Prince Xu, then we really can't go in."

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows.

Bai Zhong continued: "Prince Xu's ability to fight across levels is now known to everyone in the world. We are all military formations. The ruins have an upper limit on the number of people, and we can't bring more people. Moreover, the place is relatively isolated, and the power of summoning the military formation from a distance is limited. If Prince Xu goes in, what are we doing?"

After the voice fell, he stopped talking. Obviously, he and Gu Muyin stood on the same side in this regard.

The ruins are relatively isolated, and the number of people allowed in each ruin is different, which is extremely unfair to those who are in the military formation.

Unless they become saints, they can summon the power of the military formation from a distance.

But they simply cannot send people of that level in. If they do, there will be one less real master outside. At that time, even if one of them has a little idea, the situation on this border will change.

So Xu Bai must not be allowed in at this time. They all know that if Xu Bai is allowed in, he will be killed with a knife.

Xu Bai frowned more and more deeply. Just as he was about to speak, he did not expect King Shengyou to raise his hand to stop him.

"Okay! I agree." King Shengyou said lightly.

Xu Bai stopped and did not say the next words, but his mind was turning rapidly.

He was thinking about what he had just said. Although he didn't know why he suddenly agreed, when King Shengyou spoke, he winked at him, meaning that he should be patient.

In other words, there should be a way to respond, but now he agreed to it as a stopgap measure.

"Okay, that's great!" Bai Zhong said, "If that's the case, everyone should withdraw first, and we'll come back a day later. But let me be frank. If anyone dares to go in first, don't blame us for joining forces."

King Shengyou and Gu Muyin didn't say anything, and they obviously agreed with this statement.

Then everyone turned their troops around and left.

Xu Bai didn't say a word all the way, even after arriving at the military camp.

As soon as he handed the reins to Chu Yu, King Shengyou came over, patted his shoulder lightly, and winked at the same time, meaning to follow.

Xu Bai nodded, followed silently, and soon entered King Shengyou's tent.

After entering, before he could say anything, he found footsteps behind him, and then a middle-aged woman with a wooden box on her waist walked in.

Not only that, Chu Yu also walked in.

Although the middle-aged woman is old, one can still see the graceful demeanor she had when she was young. She has a wooden box of medium size slung around her waist, which is locked and obviously very valuable.

Chu Yu pulled the curtain, walked in front of Xu Bai, and winked.

Xu Bai was stunned, not understanding what this meant.

At this time, King Shengyou said: "Let me introduce you, this is the Thousand Faces Female Thief. After being rescued by me, she has been working under me. She is good at changing her appearance. Using this ability, she has also made many contributions to the Great Chu State."

At the end, King Shengyou did not forget to add: "Next, it depends on her."

Thousand Faces Female Thief?

Change your appearance?

In an instant, Xu Bai understood what King Shengyou meant. Good guy, this time he wanted to change the prince.

Using the method of changing your appearance, you can turn yourself into another person. Isn't it completely no problem?

It's really smart.

Not only is it smart, but it is also extremely insidious. It is worthy of being King Shengyou. It looks like a reckless man, but in fact, there are many bad waters in his belly.

But... why did Chu Yu come here?

Xu Bai asked doubtfully, "Does Chu Yu have to follow in?"

He had learned before that there was a certain number of people who could enter the ruins, and it was most important to maximize the number of people as much as possible.

If Chu Yu followed in, it would be correct.

I thought my guess was right, but I didn't expect that before I finished speaking, King Shengyou shook his head.

"I won't let her in. After all, if she goes in and you disappear again, it's hard to say." King Shengyou said slowly.

Xu Bai was full of black lines: "I understand, you want her to pretend to be me, right?"

The meaning is very clear. If Xu Bai suddenly disappears, it will also arouse suspicion, so if someone pretends to be Xu Bai, at least it won't arouse suspicion from others.

And the most suitable person to pretend to be Xu Bai is Chu Yu. After all, Chu Yu once lived with Xu Bai and knew Xu Bai's usual movements and demeanor very well.

Xu Bai smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad. You are worthy of being a prince. You think things through very well. I really admire you. Since Chu Yu pretends to be me, who should I pretend to be?"

This plan is obviously flawless. He can also enter smoothly, so he is in a good mood now.

Especially when he thinks of the progress bar inside, he is in a better mood.

King Shengyou pointed at Chu Yu, and his meaning was self-evident.

Xu Bai's body stiffened and he said uncertainly, "I... pretend to be Chu Yu?"

When he saw King Shengyou nodded, it was very clear that this was the case, and he was shocked.

Chu Yu was not happy, and pulled Xu Bai's sleeve, dissatisfied: "What's wrong with pretending to be me? Am I not beautiful?"

Xu Bai grinned: "That's not what I meant. It's actually pretty good."

In fact, it is normal to disguise yourself. It's not really a change. It's just a simple disguise. You can change back after entering.

King Shengyou coughed and said, "Since you've agreed, let's get started."

Xu Bai smiled and said, "No need for body shape."

As he said that, he performed the Thousand Faces Technique.

The next moment, his body shape became exactly the same as Chu Yu's, and even his face was exactly the same as Chu Yu's.

When Chu Yu saw this, her mouth opened slightly, and she walked around Xu Bai twice, and said in surprise, "You can even do this!"

Not only Chu Yu, but even King Shengyou was full of surprise. He didn't expect that Xu Bai could do this.

"If you only practiced one thing, I'm afraid you would be not far away from me now. What a pity." King Shengyou said with some regret.

The Thousand Faces Female Thief also saw this scene, and couldn't help but cover her mouth: "This is the Thousand Faces Technique, Lord Xu is really amazing."

Xu Bai touched his chin and said, "Can I deceive people like this?"

To be honest, he was still not sure, after all, the other two were at the same level as King Shengyou.

Seeing another "Chu Yu" doing the actions that Xu Bai should have, it looked very strange.

Especially Chu Yu, her eyes rolled around, thinking in her heart: "If Xu Bai becomes like me, I become like Xu Bai, and then... Oh, it's so embarrassing."

She looked carefully with a guilty conscience, and was relieved when she saw that no one noticed her abnormality.

The Thousand Faces Female Thief smiled, opened the wooden box next to her, took out two masks from it, and handed them to Chu Yu and Xu Bai.

"There are indeed some problems with the appearance, but as long as you wear a mask, they shouldn't be able to see it. After all, I am a professional. Prince Xu can change his body shape by himself, so there is no need for me to do it. After all, the body shape is not difficult."

Xu Bai looked at the mask in his hand and felt a little curious.

The mask was very smooth, without even facial features. It felt cold in his hand and had a good texture.

After he put it on his face, he felt a little squirming, and soon he found a mirror and found that he had become like Chu Yu.

The Thousand Faces Female Thief smiled and said, "This is a family heirloom of our lineage. It can be changed into any appearance you want, and it is difficult for others to discover. When the time comes, Prince Xu will need to return it to me."

"Of course." Xu Bai said.

On the other side, Chu Yu also put on the mask on her face and turned into Xu Bai's appearance, but her body shape did not change, still with that bumpy appearance, which made people look very weird.

Xu Bai's mouth twitched, his eyes stayed on Chu Yu's very spectacular chest, and said: "You have to change your shape, it's too big."

"Leave it to me." The Thousand Faces Female Thief said.

Soon, Chu Yu followed the Thousand Faces Female Thief away.

After about half an incense stick of time, she had turned into Xu Bai in both body shape and appearance.

"Well, very good." King Shengyou said with a smile: "In this way, even if they have all-powerful means, they don't know my plan. This time in the ruins, they are dead."

King Shengyou waved his hand.

"You go down first, Xu Bai stays, I still have something to say to him."

After saying this, Chu Yu and the Thousand Faces Female Thief did not stop and left quickly. Xu Bai watched Chu Yu imitate his walking posture and left, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of freshness.

This Chu Yu is quite similar, it seems that he has observed a lot in normal times.

After the two left, King Shengyou looked at Xu Bai.

He first explained some rules in the ruins, including how to get out.

In fact, the way to get out is also very simple. As long as the time is up, you will naturally get out.

Each ruin has a time of existence, which is also the only way to get out, and the time of each ruin is not fixed.

After saying this, King Shengyou talked about the highlight.

"This time, although you can go in, you still have to be careful. I keep you here mainly because I want to talk to you about the mind in the ruins." King Shengyou's tone became solemn.

Xu Bai nodded and waited patiently for the next words.

Mind God, this is different from the weird existence, and it is also a unique product in the ruins.

Things like this have consciousness, and it is the consciousness before they died, and they live according to their own way before they died.

However, as the ruins unfold, they will gradually lose their due rationality and finally become a terrifying existence.

Xu Bai certainly wants to know about such a novel thing.

King Shengyou did not hesitate. After explaining the special nature of Mind God, he added: "The only thing you have to be careful about is not to kill these Mind Gods when you meet them, but to contact them."

"Contact?" Xu Bai frowned.

Why is it necessary to contact such a weird thing?

King Shengyou nodded and said: "Yes, you know, once you meet Mind God, everyone who enters the ruins will want to contact them, because they still retain their rationality before they died. Contacting them can understand what happened in the past, and can also infer a lot of resources from them."

Xu Bai's face showed a look of sudden realization when he heard this.

If that's the case, it's possible. After all, being able to communicate with a conscious thing can gain a lot.

But the danger here is great, because you don't know when the mind will lose its mind.

Maybe it was still communicating with you in the last second, but it has become a terrifying existence in the next second.

"This time, I will send some soldiers to follow and fill up the quota to avoid their suspicion." Shengyou King continued.

Xu Bai was still thinking about how to get the benefits next, but after hearing this, his brows were tightly furrowed and never relaxed.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, I'm afraid I can't take care of you inside."

If he just went in by himself, he would be free, but if he joined the Shengyou Army, he would feel like he was bound.

King Shengyou shook his head: "Don't take care of them, they are also going in to find their own opportunities, you just need to follow your own ideas."

Since you want to find opportunities, you must be prepared to leave your life. Obviously, King Shengyou has made this preparation. The people he sent in are also looking for opportunities and will not drag Xu Bai down.

"Just do it my way?" Xu Bai rubbed his chin and smiled: "What if I kill all the barbarians and the people of Daiyue after I go in?"

As soon as this answer was finished, King Shengyou's mouth twitched slightly.

"Just don't kill your own people, it doesn't matter if you kill the enemy. Anyway, once you enter that place, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by heaven."

Don't say it, Xu Bai really has this idea.

They are all enemies, and he won't care about other people's lives. Just like when they really fight, others will not show mercy because of his words.

When dealing with enemies, you must not be soft-hearted. Once you are soft-hearted, you will be waiting for your own destruction.

Since Xu Bai entered this circle, none of the enemies he dealt with walked out alive.

He is not the protagonist in those novels, nor does he have the aura of the protagonist to protect him. He can't do the stupid things that the protagonists do.

Especially in the ruins, there are mysterious spirits there, so you can't take it lightly. Leaving a few enemies around will only make things difficult for you.

"Could it be that... you really want to go in and kill them?" King Shengyou saw Xu Bai's actions at this moment and felt that what Xu Bai said just now was not false.

Xu Bai recovered and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will never do anything to my own people. I am not that crazy yet."

King Shengyou's mouth twitched slightly.

Why did this kid give him a feeling that he was particularly out of tune?

But if you think about it carefully, it would be good if you go in and kill all the forces of the other two parties.

"Then I will notify you tomorrow. We will rush over in the morning. It should be soon." King Shengyou said.

The time of the ruins is still very accurate. If it can be calculated, there will definitely not be a slight difference.

Xu Bai nodded and agreed. Just as he was about to go back, he suddenly thought of something and turned around to ask, "Prince, do you have any advanced mental skills?"

King Shengyou was slightly stunned. He felt that Xu Bai's angle was a bit too big. He was discussing the ruins just now, but now it became a mental method.

However, after hearing Xu Bai's question, he seemed to think of something.

"I have taken a lot of spoils from fighting here on weekdays. I have a more advanced mental method here. I sent the lower-level ones to the capital. This one was left for a special reason."

Although he didn't know why Xu Bai asked this, King Shengyou was instantly reminded of his memories. He thought that he did have a mental method here, but this mental method was very strange.

"Oh?" Xu Bai's eyes lit up and said, "Prince, since you are keeping it, why don't you just give it to me? If you want something in exchange, I will give you everything I have here."

Mind method, this thing is what he lacks most now. After all, there are two particularly high-level skills, which consume a lot of his true energy.

If you can improve the level of the mind method, then you can improve the overall strength, and using those two skills will also slow down the consumption.

Of course, you still have to say something, after all, no one gives you things for free these days, and things given for free are actually the most expensive.

"This king doesn't want you to give anything." King Shengyou didn't seem to want Xu Bai to give him anything. He turned and came to a cabinet, rummaged inside, and finally took out a book and handed it to Xu Bai: "But your character as a businessman is very direct. Let's put it this way. This time entering the ruins is a reward for you in advance."

Xu Bai stared at the book in front of him with burning eyes, and soon found the golden progress bar on the book.

The speed is very slow, but compared with the sword manual and the previous lotus, this speed is slightly faster.

Xu Bai can conclude that it is definitely something from the Transcendent Realm, but it is hard to say whether it is from the Transcendent Realm.

The mind method is extremely precious and rare. Now there is one, Xu Bai will not be shy and put it away.

He thought of what King Shengyou said before, and couldn't help asking: "Your Highness just said that this mental method is very special. What is so special about it?"

King Shengyou said: "All the good things I got were sent to the capital. After all, the border doesn't need any secret books or the like, but this thing is very special, so I have kept it."

"If you want to take a look, you can take a look, but don't practice it, because this is a book about inviting gods."

Xu Bai was still listening. When he heard this, he was stunned on the spot.

A book about inviting gods?

He couldn't figure it out, especially he didn't know the purpose of this business.

In this previous life, he had heard of these two words, but he didn't know what inviting gods was in this world.

King Shengyou explained: "The so-called inviting gods is to ask something to attach to the body to enhance one's own strength, but no one knows what it is, including this business."

"And up to now, this business has become extinct, and this book is the only one left."

Xu Bai fell into deep thought.

Inviting gods?

And he didn't even know what he was asking for, which was a bit mysterious. After all, he didn't even know the profession itself, which added a bit of mystery.

"Is this profession extinct?" Xu Bai asked.

King Shengyou shook his head and said, "I don't know either. It just disappeared inexplicably and never appeared again."

He didn't get the information he wanted, and even King Shengyou didn't know the information. Xu Bai looked at the progress bar in his hand and was thinking.

After a while, he had figured it out. Since there was a progress bar, he would try it. With the golden finger, maybe after the fusion, he could find a lot of secrets.

He talked about what he should talk about, and he also got a secret book. Xu Bai didn't stay and turned around to leave.

"You will live in Chuyu's tent tonight. After all, you are Chuyu now." King Shengyou said one more sentence.

Xu Bai agreed and did not return to his own tent. Instead, he went to Chu Yu's tent. After entering, he lay directly on Chu Yu's bed, turned the book out again, and carefully studied the progress bar.

He was really interested in this book about summoning gods, especially a mental method, which made him more interested.

If there is really something special or bad about it, it doesn't matter.

After all, this is just a mental method, not other skills. He has no method to use it. At most, it is integrated with his own mental method. If he learns it, he can't summon gods without the corresponding skills.

Fusion means improvement, and improvement means that he can use the three absolute swords and the immortal demon soul Buddha body more.

No matter from which aspect, it is good for him.

The night is getting deeper and deeper, but Xu Bai can't sleep, and continues to study the progress bar.

...

The next day.

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning came in, Xu Bai had already got up and followed the army of King Shengyou to the Sangeng River where he had been before.

He did not bring the first-class puppet with him, but let it follow Chu Yu, who had become himself.

After all, his identity was different now, so he did not plan to bring the first-class puppet with him this time.

On the other side of the Sangeng River, the three parties had gathered and confronted each other. No one spoke, obviously waiting for the arrival of the ruins.

Xu Bai turned into Chu Yu and waited at ease.

Time passed slowly, and after about half an hour, something abnormal finally appeared around.
