Chen Nian came to his senses in a trance.
In the memory just now, the woman named Jian Quming is obviously the legendary "Star-Picking" ranger.
And that man, the person who allowed the legendary ranger to follow, even among the other followers there seemed to be strong men such as Sun Wukong and Yang Jian...
According to the name of the man's skill, Azure Firmament... wouldn't that be "Nine Heavens, Azure Firmament"?
So this is inferred.
That man is the fifth Level Guardian, and Star Chasing Ranger followed him before becoming Barrier Domain Ranger.
Now, Star Chasing Ranger kneels down towards me and gives me the bow "Myriad Stars".
I am the fifth Level Guardian?
After Chen Nian came to this conclusion, he was dumbfounded and stayed there for a long time without being able to recover.
If this is the case, it makes sense that Sun Wukong would give his remaining power to himself, since he was one of his former subordinates.
If I were the fifth child, what would be the conditions for Divine Awakening?
My identity is so awesome, why should I hide in a place like this and not even be able to go back home?
But thinking about it, Ye Yuan Divine Awakening was a shabby little girl before, and Jun Yi Divine Awakening was a chess fanatic who didn't know anything. Compared with them, I seem to be doing better.
When Chen Nian's consciousness returned to reality, he found that a large number of people had gathered around him, and almost all the contestants behind him had arrived.
"What's going on... so many people are surrounding him?"
"Not only did he tie for first place with A Shu, he also received the inheritance of Star-Picking Ranger!"
"Holy crap, what kind of bad luck is this?"
Everyone was envious.
An elder walked tremblingly in front of Chen Nian and asked in a hoarse voice, "Young man, who... are you? Have you ever had a relationship with Star-Picking Ranger!"
"I'm not sure either..."
Another gray-haired elder said in a trembling voice, "According to the records in Historical Records of the Rangers, two of the rangers have followed two more powerful figures. They are the Level Guardian of the world! Flying Snow follows the third Level Guardian, and Star-Picking follows the fifth Level Guardian."
"You can make the legendary ranger so respectful, are you..."
Hearing the old man's conjecture, everyone gasped.
Chen Nian said helplessly, "If I am really a big shot, and I am saved from death by A Shu, don't think too much about it."
"It's not unreasonable."
"Stop looking, let's all disperse. You three, have a celebration banquet by the river tonight!"
at night.
The rangers lit bonfires, held a banquet by the river, and drank and drank.
Chen Nian couldn't help but feel a little emotional. The free life here is really good, but it's a pity that we can't stay for a long time.
"By the way Old Xiao, I wonder if you still remember what you said while drinking yesterday."
"Did I say you cheated?" Xiao Wangchen touched his head.
"Haha, you said that your daughter Taxue must be the first today. If anyone else takes the first place, you will betroth your daughter to him!"
Click!
At the next table, the wine glass in Taxue's hand was crushed to pieces by her.
Xiao Wangchen felt a chill on his back, turned slightly and saw his daughter's cold eyes.
That look seemed to say: Are you looking for death, old man?
"The nonsense you talk when you're drunk don't count!" Xiao Wangchen argued loudly.
"You said you are already a grown-up, why are you still lying? Or do you think that boy Chen Nian is not good enough to be worthy of your family Taxue?"
"That's the one who got Star-Picking Ranger Inheritance. He's a rare good prospect! Many girls have a crush on him. If you don't make a move first, you won't be able to!"
"If that doesn't work, wait until my Qiqi grows up and let her talk to Chen Nian, haha!"
Old Miao said with a big smile, which made her daughter Qiqi feel shy and run away in a hurry.
"Actually, this young man Chen Nian is really good! His talent and strength are top-notch, and I even feel familiar with him."
"Then what are you waiting for? Go do some ideological work for Taxue."
"But my intuition tells me that I must not take advantage of this guy!"
However, Chen Nian had no intention of falling in love with another girl at the moment. His heart was tied to Blue Star, so in the end the topic was dropped.
After three drinks, Chen Nian was called to the elders' table.
"Young man, now you are also a member of our Barrier Domain Ranger, and you have inherited the inheritance of Star-Picking. You will be a famous figure written into history in the future. Tell us about what happened before you came here, and let us know more about you."
"Okay."
Chen Nian then talked about what happened before.
Start from Blue Star, then set foot in all major worlds, then enter World Tree Academy, and then go to save each world.
"Are you bragging?!"
"Yes, according to what you said, wouldn't it mean that a lot of Origin Demon God have been killed?"
Everyone is dubious about Chen Nian's experience, but Uesawa Ueki is the only one who has no doubts about it.
"He has such abilities. In our world, he is a world-famous hero."
Everyone couldn't help but believe it when they heard that A Shu, who has always been serious about his words, gave Chen Nian such a high evaluation.
"Chen Nian, what are your plans next?"
"After cultivating my health, I will find a chance to go back. I'm sorry, I can't stay here for too long."
What followed was a silence from everyone, so quiet that it was even a little weird!
Because many people here feel ashamed from the bottom of their hearts.
They are actually the most capable people in their respective worlds, but no one has ever taken on such a responsibility as Chen Nian, and no one is as brave as him.
Rangers, what they see is what they see, yearning for freedom between heaven and earth.
This is nice to say.
To put it bluntly, they did not dare to directly fight Calamity, so they wandered to all corners of the world and lived a leisurely life without caring about worldly affairs.
For some people, their world has been completely invaded, but they can only live their lives in secret as if it never happened.
Some people want to stay here for a lifetime, at least without worries.
But Chen Nian wants to go back, to the world that has been invaded by Calamity...
"Good boy, you are brave enough! I give you a toast."
Xiao Wangchen raised the glass and drank it in one gulp.
He comes from Third Stratum. Although there has not yet been invaded by Calamity, the various forces are constantly fighting for resources and territory.
Facts have proved that human beings will also have civil strife for the sake of greed, and peace cannot always be achieved.
He was tired of that kind of world. In comparison, he longed for the life of a ranger and did not want to participate in disputes. His wife thought he was a coward and had no ability but did not dare to fight, so she resolutely abandoned him.
Later, Xiao Wangchen fled here with his young daughter and became a member of the rangers.
With a glass of wine in his stomach, he was already drunk and in a daze.
"Chen Nian, if you don't think my daughter is cruel, you two can talk!"
Xiao Wangchen lay on the table and said, "Although I feel like I'm giving you an advantage, but when I think of you calling me dad, I feel like it's not a loss, hahaha... Ouch!"
Before he could finish speaking, his ear was plucked heavily by a hand, it was Taxue.
"If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute. Go home!"
"Let... let go. In public, you are too disrespectful to me."
"Labour counts to three."
"Daughter, save some face for daddy..."
"1,3!"
Taxue's force on his ears suddenly became stronger, and Xiao Wangchen was dragged home.
Fifth Stratum.
It has been some time since the core world was occupied, and Tree of Calamity has grown into a towering tree.
A large number of troops have been assembled and are ready to attack Fourth Tier.
Suddenly, Tiankong breaks open!
A chess piece was like a falling comet, crashing onto the ground, crushing countless Calamity Beast into flesh.
"Is it the fourth child's method? He is provoking us." Jing Long looked angry.
Jian Yang said without changing his expression, "No, this is a declaration of war."
As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of light suddenly shot out from the white chess piece, shooting straight into the sky, like some kind of guiding beacon.
"The fourth child wants to lure us there. What does he want to do?"
"The chess piece refers to the core world of Fourth Tier. He doesn't want us to go on a killing spree, so he directly lets us go." Jian Yang said calmly.
"Could it be some conspiracy?"
"Let's go, let me see what kind of chess game he has set up."
This time, the Calamity army did not attack the Fourth Tier world on a large scale, but directly headed towards the world coordinates guided by the chess pieces.
World D-15.
In this world, due to competition for territory, competition for resources, and various wars, the population is extremely sparse.
Moreover, there are Huangshan Mountains and deserts everywhere, and the green quilt that once covered the mountains and plains has long since disappeared.
On the top of the steep and desolate mountain cliff, stood a man in white who looked like an elegant scholar. He put his hands behind his back and looked at Tiankong.
A gust of wind blew up the yellow sand, but it did not stain his clothes with a trace of dust.
Jun Yi.
He has left his wife in the care of Mu Yun and Mu Qingxuan, and issued a challenge to invite his eldest brother.
He knows that the other party will definitely come, because this is the core world of Fourth Tier, and it is the battleground for Calamity!
Jun Yi holds a piece of jade between the fingers of his right hand.
This piece of jade was given to him by his second sister Mo Ning before she left.
What the second sister said is still fresh in my mind.
"It's better to be broken jade than to be intact."
"When you know that you are in a desperate situation, you can crush this piece of jade, and the World Tree divine power in your body will completely detonate and swallow up the entire world."
"Even my eldest brother, An Ran can't be safe."
Jun Yi smiled bitterly and put the jade away, thinking that the second sister was really cruel.
But this is fine, if sacrificing one of myself can defeat the big brother's plan, then if I don't go to hell, who will?
Here they come.
Countless Calamity Beast began to invade this plane, and the entire Tiankong became dark and depressing.
Seeing this scene from a distance, the locals shouted desperately that the end was coming, and then hid under the ruins left by the war and shivered.
Soon, a leader Origin Demon God discovered Jun Yi and immediately rushed over excitedly.
"It's a human being. Let me kill him and sacrifice the flag for our army!"
Jun Yi raised his hand, holding a black chess piece between his fingertips.
Whoosh!
The chess piece was bounced out by him.
Origin Demon God's head turned into an exploding watermelon and he died on the spot.
"Then let's get started."
Jun Yi raised his two fingers high, as if he wanted to touch the clouds in the sky with his fingertips.
"Heaven and Earth Chessboard, for my use."
"All living beings are chess pieces."
"Come together!"
Countless horizontal and vertical lines fell from the sky.
On the ground, countless horizontal and vertical lines rise.
The two are combined into one, and those horizontal and vertical lines form a complete chessboard.
As for the Calamity Beast in the middle, any one that touched the lines would be cut into pieces on the spot.
In an instant, hundreds of thousands of Calamity Beast were torn apart, and a violent rain of flesh and blood fell, dyeing the earth black and red.
Those who were lucky enough to survive were all frightened to death.
"Then, who is that person... it's so scary!"
Jun Yi stood on the cliff, looking at this scene full of death and blood, indifferent.
At this time.
A ray of light fell like a meteorite and landed on the mountain peak not far in front of him.
The two stood on the top of the mountain respectively, looking at each other from afar.
The person who came was none other than Jian Yang, wearing a jet-black armor with dragon patterns, and his cloak rustled in the wind of rolling yellow sand.
It seemed that as long as he stood there, he was born Honor of Kings!
"Brother, you are here."
"I gave these to you to kill."
Jian Yang said calmly, "If you have killed enough, make way."
"It would be fine if I didn't wake up. Now that I'm awake, I am Protection. How can I be alone?"
Jian Yang said, "You should take a good look at this world. War has devastated the originally beautiful world, and the cause is human greed!"
"The world has become like this, and it needs the power of World Tree to nourish and correct it."
"The upper world is like a baby in a rich family, crying for food, while the lower world gets very little, and most of them even have to fight to survive."
"Fourth, do you think this rule is reasonable?"
Jun Yi thought for a moment and shook his head with a wry smile, "Brother, maybe what you said makes sense, but this is not the reason for you to reshape the world Destruction."
"A long time ago, in Ninth Stratum, where people were starving and dying, I had a loved one."
Jian Yang's eyes were slightly dazed, as if he had returned to the time when he was not Divine Awakening. Although the world was cruel, the girl he met was kind and optimistic.
In Ninth Stratum, even growing vegetables is a luxury because the lower layers receive very little nourishment and the air and rain are extremely poor.
The two worked hard to manage a small field, caring for it like a child. Although life was hard, they were able to support each other.
"Then one day, when I came home from scavenging, I saw a group of bandits making a bonfire, eating meat and laughing."
"There was a burnt human skeleton on the grill. Yes, those bandits first insulted my wife, and then brutally killed her and used them to fill their stomachs."
"Fourth child, have you ever seen such a scene in Fourth Tier?"
Although he was talking about heart-wrenching memories, Jian Yang's expression did not change at all, he was cold and calm, and his angular face was like a carved fossil, without any movement.
"Brother, I understand you. But there is no reason that can be used to justify evil deeds. Those bandits are certainly beasts, but you have destroyed all the worlds and caused countless casualties. Isn't it evil?"
"When the new order and rules are established, this kind of thing will never happen again!"
Jian Yang didn't want to waste any more words. "My intention was not to kill you. If you don't block the way, you don't have to die."
"Brother, you can only use 50% of your strength now, so you are so sure you can beat me?"
"You can try it."
ps: Happy National Day everyone!
