Xuanyue, of course, knew how precious this Space Magic Codex was, especially since it came from the hands of this Space Enchanter Prín, who went by the alias of Round Wood. Xuanyue solemnly received the Magic Codex with both hands and said seriously, "Thank you, Prophet Prín. I will definitely practice your Space Magic well." Although she said that, Xuan Yue didn't have the thought of cultivating in a hurry. Up until now, she still maintained a skeptical attitude towards the messiah that Pu Lin spoke of.

As if he could read Xuanyue's mind, Prín smiled and said, "Child, one day, you will work hard. Dumb, come here. "

Dumb agreed and walked to Xuanyue's side. Prín smiled and held Dumb's hand, saying, "Dumb, you are a kind and good child. The current you is probably not the original you. Based on your appearance, you should be an extremely intelligent person. The reason why you are like this must be related to your childhood. If I am not wrong, you must be an orphan. "

Dumb was stunned and said, "How do you know?"

Prín smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't forget, I am the prophet of the Puyan people! You must have had some painful experiences in your childhood. After you entered the temple, I have checked your body and found that there is a layer of darkness in your mind. Only by breaking through this layer of darkness can you find your true self. However, this will depend on your own efforts. Even if you have lost your memory, you are still a kind and good child. Your kind nature has pushed you to where you are today. Your future achievements are limitless. Remember my words, regardless of whether you recover your memory in the future, you must maintain your kind heart. Only you, who are kind like water, will receive the blessing of the gods. "

After listening to Prín's words, Dumb stood there in a daze. There was a flash of light in his mind, but he couldn't catch it. Xuanyue frowned and said, "Prophet Prín, are you saying that Dumb once lost his memory?"

Prín nodded slightly and said, "Dumb must have suffered a great shock in his childhood, which is why he lost his memory. I believe that he will be able to recall that memory in the future."

Dumb said in a trembling voice, "Prophet Prín, are you saying that I should have a family too? Am, am I not an orphan? "

Prín shook his head and said, "My power is limited. I don't know where you come from or who you are. You'll have to find out for yourself. Do you understand? "

Dumb looked at Prín blankly and couldn't speak for a long time.

Prín said, "Well, Dumb, I will also give you something. This thing will be of some use to you in the future. It can not only help you suppress evil, but it can also protect you at critical times. Look. " With that, Prín reached out and pressed on the stone platform in front of him. With a flash of light, a round stone pillar protruded from the center of the stone platform. Prín shouted in a low voice and quickly drew a hexagram on the top of the stone pillar. He chanted a few incantations in a low voice. The light suddenly burst out, and the protruding stone pillar became crystal clear. A necklace appeared in the stone pillar. The necklace was silver with a blue pendant on it. It was very ordinary teardrop-shaped, and its appearance was very similar to Xuanyue's Phoenix Blood.

With the appearance of this necklace, the Phoenix Blood on Xuanyue's chest suddenly heated up. This necklace gave her a sense of déjà vu.

Prín looked at the necklace in front of him in a daze and sighed, "Do you still remember that sentence? With the Blood of the Divine Dragon as the knot, this necklace is the Blood of the Divine Dragon paired with the Blood of the Phoenix. We Puyan people have preserved it for thousands of years. Xuanyue, you should know the origin of these two necklaces. "

Xuanyue looked at the Blood of the Divine Dragon with some excitement. She nodded and said, "The Blood of the Divine Dragon and the Blood of the Phoenix are the accessories of the first Pope of the Holy Hall, His Majesty Divine Feather and his wife. Legend has it that the King of the Dragons — Divine Dragon and the King of the Birds — Phoenix used their own blood to create these artifacts. They have great power. "

Prín nodded and said, "Yes, you are right. This Blood of the Divine Dragon belongs to His Majesty Divine Feather. At that time, the other races were unwilling to return the territories of us Puyan people. Out of apology, His Majesty Divine Feather gave the protective artifact that he carried with him to us Puyan people. It became the treasure of our race. For thousands of years, we have never used it. And the Blood of the Phoenix has always been preserved by the Holy Hall. It is Xuanyue's possession. They were originally a pair, complementary to each other. Your cultivation is still too weak now. It is impossible to exert the power of these two artifacts. When you can reach a power that surpasses mine, maybe you can really summon the help of the Divine Dragon and the Phoenix. Among the artifacts, the Blood of the Divine Dragon and the Blood of the Phoenix can be said to be mid-level artifacts. "

Xuanyue was stunned and said, "Artifacts are also divided into grades?"

Prín nodded slightly and said, "Artifacts are roughly divided into three grades. Didn't your elders tell you? Like low-level artifacts, some can be created with the power of human beings. As far as I know, there was once a great Alchemist who relied on his own power and many treasures in the world to create a low-level artifact. As for how the mid-level and high-level artifacts came about, I don't know. I only know that the power of a high-level artifact is something that even the Heavenly Gods are afraid of. " While saying that, his eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the position of the Hell King's Sword on Dumb's chest.

Dumb didn't notice Prín's gaze. He said in a daze, "Prophet Prín, you, you are saying that you want to give this Blood of the Divine Dragon to us?"

Prín smiled and said, "No, it is for you. I have already given my Magic Codex to Xuanyue, so this Blood of the Dragon God is naturally yours. " With that, he used some unknown method, and the necklace in the cylinder suddenly appeared in his hand. At the same time as the Blood of the Dragon God appeared, a blue light shone brightly, as if there was a huge roar in the distance. The Phoenix Blood on Xuanyue's chest emitted a strong red light at the same time, contrasting with the Blood of the Dragon God. The two necklaces seemed to have their own souls, and at this moment, they seemed to be very happy.

Dumb shook his hand again and again and refused, "No, no, how can that be? This is the treasure of you Puyan people! How can I take it? Prophet Prín, you should put it away first. "

Prín didn't take it back, and said lightly, "Dumb, take it. I am very relieved that this artifact is in your hands. Since it is an artifact, it should play its proper role. The millennium calamity is coming, and I hope that it can be carried forward in your hands. Make good use of its power. This is also a reward from the Prín Clan. It's our duty to help the Savior. "

Xuanyue looked at Prín, then looked at Dumb. Suddenly, she snatched the Blood of the Dragon God from Prín's hand, stuffed it into Dumb's hand, and said angrily, "I told you to take it, just take it. Prophet Prín said that in the future, we still have to contribute to the Puyan people. With the Blood of the Dragon God, the chances of success will be much higher. At most, we can return it to him after everything is over. "

Dumb was stunned. The Blood of the Dragon God in his hand transmitted a faint warmth, and his whole body was filled with a warm feeling. It was indescribably comfortable. Moreover, the Blood of the Dragon God seemed to be very close to him. After entering Dumb's hand, the blue light gradually dimmed, but the huge energy contained in it did not decrease.

Dumb said, "Prophet Prín, then I will borrow it first. Thank you. "

Prín smiled and said, "The Blood of the Dragon God has an incantation to activate it. When you want to use it, you just need to focus your mind on the Blood of the Dragon God, and you will naturally know the incantation. As for some other functions, the incantation of the Dragon God's Blood is almost the same as the Phoenix Blood. In the future, I will let Xuanyue tell you. " Prín's eyes revealed a profound light, and he said with relief, "My mission is finally completed. The future of the Puyan people will depend on you. Xuanyue, Dumb, you must not let me down! "

Xuanyue pulled Dumb, and said, "We will do what we can. Prophet Prín, do you have anything else? Shouldn't we be going now? Yanshi is still in danger. Aren't you afraid that he will be harmed? That murderer could kill Yanshi's wife without anyone knowing, I am afraid that Yanshi is in a very dangerous situation now. "

Prín's eyes revealed a trace of pain, and he sighed, "I have watched Yanshi grow up, his fate has long been decided by the heavens, and it is not something that can be changed by humans. I have already arranged his matter. Don't worry. I still have something to tell you. You have seen the Tiru warriors in the Tiru Temple, right? Tell me what you think. "

Xuanyue and Dumb's eyes revealed a look of fear at the same time. Xuanyue said, "They are the most dangerous warriors I have ever seen. Even in the Holy Hall, only the senior judges can compare to them. You Puyan people really have a lot of experts!"

Dumb said, "They are really strong, especially the two Tiru warriors at the entrance of the grotto. If they make a move, any one of them can easily kill us."

Prín said in pain, "These Tiru warriors are the most respectable heroes of our Puyan people! Do you know how they came to be? I will tell you now, this can be said to be the biggest secret of our race. A thousand years ago, our Puyan people were almost wiped out because of that catastrophe. After that, we were in danger of being unable to recover. In order for us Puyan people to continue to develop, the patriarch at that time decided to use secret witchcraft to create the most powerful warriors. "

Dumb said in surprise, "Can powerful warriors be created?"

Plin nodded and said, "Witchcraft is a very mysterious thing. It's somewhat similar to the lost necromancy magic. Those who use witchcraft must pay a certain price in order to achieve their goals. In our Puyan people, there is a witchcraft that can fully unleash one's potential. However, it has a very high price, and that is – the soul. "

Xuanyue and Dumb said at the same time, "Soul?"

Prín nodded sadly, "Yes, the soul. After using this witchcraft, you have to give up your soul as the price. Although the warriors who use witchcraft lose their soul, as long as their body is not destroyed, they can obtain eternal life. That is the current Tiru warriors. Not only do they have very powerful attack and defense abilities, but their potential is also fully unleashed. The most terrifying thing is their self-healing ability. As long as their body is not completely destroyed or crippled, they can be said to be immortal. "

Dumb murmured, "Sacrificing one's soul for great power, this, this is too …"

Plin said mournfully, "Is it too evil? These Tiru warriors are the heroes of our Puyan people. They gave up their souls for the development of our Puyan people. They will receive the eternal respect of our Puyan people. Not everyone can use this witchcraft. One must have great strength and a strong will, otherwise, the witchcraft will not be completed. Every Tiru warrior who completes witchcraft is the strongest warrior of our Puyan people. Our tribe has a test. Those who pass the test will receive the witchcraft method and incantation from the prophet. Once there is a threat to our Puyan people's safety, these warriors will not hesitate to use witchcraft, instantly turning themselves into powerful Tiru warriors. Back then, after the catastrophe, the other races treated us Puyan people as a piece of juicy meat. They thought that we, who have tens of thousands of years of heritage, must have countless treasures. Openly or covertly, they have invaded our territory countless times. At the most dangerous moment, our warriors will use witchcraft to become the strongest Tiru warriors to destroy the enemy. When the enemy is destroyed, they also lose their souls and consciousness, and can only be commanded by a prophet like me. Because of this, we hate those foreign races even more. Over the past thousand years, the Puyan Tribe has experienced a hundred and twenty-one major disasters. Because of these disasters, 276 heroes have become Tiru warriors. Eleven of them were completely destroyed in battle, but to this day, 265 Tiru warriors are still alive. The oldest of them is more than nine hundred years old. Although their power will not increase, they have become the strongest secret weapons of our Puyan people. "

Dumb asked, confused, "Since Tiru warriors are so powerful, isn't a few dozen enough? Why are there so many of them? "

Prín smiled bitterly, "We Puyan people have more than 30 tribes. Although it can't be compared to the golden age of the past, the area is still not small. Every time the enemy attacks, there can't be Tiru warriors nearby. In times of crisis, in order to protect their clansmen, those powerful warriors will definitely choose to sacrifice their souls to use witchcraft to increase their power. If it wasn't for the high requirements of witchcraft, we would have more Tiru warriors in the past thousand years. Even today, some people who covet our Puyan people's treasures will still sneak into our tribes. That's why we Puyan people hate outsiders so much, and don't want to interact with them. "

Dumb thought for a while, then said, "Prophet Prín, then do you think Brother Yanshi's wife was killed by outsiders this time?"

Prín shook his head, "I don't know. Tonight, all the answers will be revealed. Children, I told you the secret of the Puyan people's Tiru warriors so that you know, if you meet a strong enemy in the future, our Puyan people's Tiru warriors will be your most loyal companions. They will be your greatest help. "

Dumb and Xuanyue looked at each other. Xuanyue sighed, "These Tiru warriors are the most pitiful people. We'd rather not have their help. Their souls are already gone, it's better to let them live quietly in the Tiru Temple. What do you think? "

Prín's eyes flashed with tears, "You're right, these seniors have sacrificed too much for the Puyan people. We'll talk about this later. But even if you don't want their help, I still have to tell you how to control them, because my days are numbered. You have to promise me that after I teach you the method to activate the Tiru warriors, you will not use them to achieve your goals. At the same time, I have another request. I hope you won't tell anyone that you're the messiah. It's better to let things develop naturally. If the Holy Hall finds out that you're the messiah they're looking for, it's very likely that they'll restrict your development. Xuanyue, you should understand that I'm saying this to you. "

Before Xuanyue could reply, Dumb hurriedly said, "Prophet Prín, why do you think your days are numbered?"

Prín sighed, "As a prophet, my lifespan is already quite long. After all, I've revealed the secrets of the heavens, so I'll definitely be punished by the gods. Although I can't see the end of my life, it shouldn't be too far away. "

Xuanyue and Dumb looked at each other. Xuanyue said, "Since we're the messiah you're talking about, isn't it better to tell the Holy Hall about this news? We'll be able to get more help in the future. "

Dumb said, "Prophet Prín, you'll be fine. You'll definitely live for another few decades."

Pu Lin raised his hand and stopped Xuan Yue and Dumby from speaking any further. He revealed an indifferent smile on his face and said, "A person's life is always limited, and I'm no exception. I've just said that among the prophets, I'm already considered old. Some of my ancestors didn't even live to the age of 30 before they passed away. I'm already very satisfied now. Xuanyue, I know that as a member of the Holy Hall, if you don't tell such an important thing to the Pope, I'm afraid you won't be able to rest easy. However, you have to remember what I said. Everyone has their own destiny, which is already arranged by the gods. If they're obstructed by external forces, their destiny will change slightly. Just like you, you've already stepped into the wheel of destiny, and you can only walk according to your own destiny. Letting nature take its course is the best choice, Xuanyue, do you understand? "

Xuan Yue seemed to be deep in thought and didn't say a word. Pu Lin walked between Dumby and Xuan Yue shakily. His stature wasn't considered short, but he was currently hunched. Dumby hurriedly supported Pu Lin's arm from the side and asked, "Prophet, are you alright?"

Prín shook his head and said, "Listen to me, you two. From now on, I'll teach you how to control the Tiru warriors. You have to swear that you won't teach it to anyone else."

Dumb lowered his head and said, "Prophet Prín, I, I don't want to learn."

Prín sighed, then suddenly stretched out his skinny right hand and touched Dumb's chest. Dumb was startled, but he didn't resist. The skinny hand had already touched the leather pouch containing the Hell King's Sword through his clothes. A cold evil force emitted from the sword hilt, and the stone chamber suddenly became cold. Xuanyue couldn't help but shiver.

Pu Lin retracted his palm. He didn't seem to be affected by the monstrous evil power. "Child, there is no good or evil in the world. No matter what it is, it depends on where you use it. If you use it for good, it will be good, and if you use it for evil, it will be evil. The Tiru warriors are the same as the evil thing on your chest. They shouldn't exist in the world. However, since they already exist, why can't you use them to do some good instead of letting them idle or be used by those with evil intentions? The reason why I want to teach you how to control the Tiru warriors is not so that you can lead them to do something. I just hope that if something happens to us Puyan people, or if the continent needs us Puyan people's help, you can use these heroes of the Puyan people to help you. As long as it's for justice, I think these heroes will smile in the underworld. "

Prín's eyes were filled with kindness as he swept his gaze from Dumb to Xuanyue. Both of them felt like they were bathing in a spring breeze.

Dumb lowered his head and didn't say anything. Xuanyue thought for a moment and said, "Since you said so, then let's start. I promise you, unless it's necessary, we won't use the Tiru warriors."

Prín said with relief, "Good, it's good that you understand my intentions. Let's start now. Actually, it's not difficult to control the Tiru warriors. Although they don't have souls, they don't reject things they're familiar with. Although you're not Puyan people, Xuanyue got my Magic Codex, and Dumb got the Dragon God's blood. With these two things, it'll be much easier for you to learn how to control them. "As he spoke, Pu Lin explained the Tiru Warrior's control method in detail to Xuan Yue and Dumby.

An hour later, Prín took a deep breath and said, "I've told you everything I can. You're still too weak to use this method, especially Xuanyue. You have a Holy Physique, so if you want to use this method, you'll need Space Magic. After all, the Tiru warriors were transformed through witchcraft, so they can also be called Dark Warriors. If there's a chance, you must practice the Magic Codex I taught you, understand? "

Xuanyue nodded. What Prín just taught them was how to create witchcraft for the Tiru warriors, as well as how to control witchcraft. This was something that Xuanyue and Dumb had never come into contact with before, so it was hard for them to accept. The power of witchcraft was very mysterious. Even Prophet Prín only knew about witchcraft for turning Tiru warriors into witchcraft.

Prín said, "Where are you going through the Puyan people's territory? Can you tell me? "

Xuanyue looked at Dumb and said, "We're going to the Death Mountain Range to look for top-grade magic crystals."

Prín was stunned, "What? You're going to the Death Mountain Range? That's one of the most dangerous places on the continent! You're too daring. " After he finished speaking, he drew a six-pointed star in the air with a grave expression. He continuously and rapidly chanted an incantation, and only stopped after the time it took to finish a meal. Pu Lin clearly heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I have already calculated for you. Although you will face many dangers during this trip, you should be able to return safely. Be careful in everything."

Dumby was already very convinced of Pu Lin. Hearing him say that, his original trace of worry immediately disappeared, and he said, "That means, we can get the magic crystal?"

Prín coughed a few times and said while panting, "Have confidence in yourself. Have the confidence to overcome all difficulties. Whether you succeed or not depends entirely on yourself. Let's go, it's time to leave this place. It's almost time to settle Yanshi's matter. "

Dumb was startled. Just as he was about to say something, his stomach growled. Too much time had passed, the food he ate at noon had already been digested.

Xuanyue chuckled and silently chanted an incantation. She took out a few steamed buns from the Phoenix Blood and handed them to Dumb, saying, "You must be hungry. Eat something first. Prophet, do you want some? "

Prín smiled bitterly, "I'm sorry, I forgot that you haven't had dinner yet. Let's go. After dealing with Yanshi's matter, I'll definitely have the patriarch treat you well." With that, he led Xuanyue and Dumb out of the stone room. When they walked out of the stone door, the two Tiru warriors didn't stop them. Prín said, "These two Tiru warriors are the most powerful warriors of the tribe. They were transformed by the strongest warriors of the tribe using witchcraft hundreds of years ago. It can be said that they are the kings of the Tiru warriors. Although they may not be comparable to the Sword Saints of the continent, they are not far off. In order to protect the history of our Puyan people, they are standing here. Xuanyue, my Magic Codex has the way to enter this place, it's at the end. In the future, if necessary, you can come here and command them. "With that, he walked forward. Xuanyue and Dumb's gaze swept across the Tiru warrior king, their eyes showing sadness.

Xuanyue faintly felt that this Prophet Prín, who sacrificed 30 years of his life for the tribe, seemed to be narrating his will.

… …

It was already very late at night. There was not a single trace of starlight in the night sky. Layers of dark clouds covered the bright moon, plunging the land into darkness. Occasionally, a cool breeze would blow the leaves, giving people a strange feeling.

Outside a stone house outside the Tiru Temple.

Yan Li was sitting on the steps of the stone room's entrance, wiping his two axes with a piece of cloth. "Brother Rock Giant, do you think that murderer will come tonight? Shouldn't we arrange more people here so that that guy can't come and go? " Hmph, as long as I catch that bastard, I will hack him to death. "Saying this, he waved the axes in his hands. They had been waiting here for half the night, but there was no movement. It was already very late at night, and the Puyan people in the tribe were already asleep.

Rock Giant shook his head helplessly, saying: "Ali, you're not young anymore, why are you still so impulsive? You should use your brain more. If we arrange too many people here, the murderer won't fall for it. Moreover, we are both considered experts in the tribe. No matter how strong the enemy is, we can hold them off for a while. It won't be a problem to hold them back. At that time, we can call the other tribesmen and definitely catch the murderer. "

Yan Li yawned, saying: "Brother Rock Giant, you always scolded me when I was young. Now that I'm not young anymore, can you stop scolding me? I'm so sleepy! If only the sky would brighten soon. Brother Yanshi is so pitiful, sister Yun Er passed away just like that. God really doesn't have eyes! He didn't even protect a good person like sister Yun Er. "

Rock Giant scolded: "Don't talk nonsense. If the chief hears this, you'll suffer."

Yan Li snorted, saying: "The chief is really too much. If I were him, I would definitely arrange a large number of people to protect brother Yanshi. Even though finding the murderer is important, isn't it more important to save brother Yanshi first? But what about him? Not only did he send us here to guard, he also spread the prophet's words to the entire tribe. Isn't this putting brother Yanshi in danger? Sister Yun Er is dead, brother Yanshi is so pitiful, but I don't see him being too sad. When sister Yun Er was married to brother Yanshi, he didn't agree. Maybe now that sister Yun Er is dead, he's happy. "

Rock Giant pulled Yan Li up from the ground and said in a low voice: "Why is it that the more I talk about you, the more excited you are. Is the chief someone you can talk about?"

Yan Li also knew that his words were too much. He put the battle-ax on his back and said: "Brother Rock Giant, I didn't say anything just now."

Rock Giant smiled and said: "You ah! If you can change your impulsive character, you will be more popular. The chief won't worry about you going out to train … "

Yan Li smiled bitterly: "Staying in the tribe every day is boring me to death. Brother Rock Giant, what do you think we should do if brother Yanshi can't wake up? He is the chief's only successor ah! Our clansmen will definitely not allow an unconscious person to inherit the chief's position. I hope he wakes up soon. "

A faint light flashed through Rock Giant's eyes as he indifferently said: "If the Yanshi Brothers really can't wake up, I'm afraid the elders in the tribe will have to choose a new successor."

Yan Li's expression changed: "If they really want to choose a successor, who can compare to brother Rock Giant's prestige in the tribe? In our generation, even brother Yanshi can't compare to you!"

Rock Giant was a little surprised and frowned: "Yan Li, don't talk too much. Be alert, the murderer can appear at any time. Our mission today is very important!"

Yan Li coldly snorted and said: "I'm just afraid that the murderer won't dare to appear. As long as he comes, I don't believe he can go back alive."

Yan Ju walked to Yan Li's side, patted his broad shoulders and said, "Yan Li, there's one thing you're right about."

Yan Li was surprised and asked: "What thing?"
