The Sun Capital metropolitan area highest place, is standing erect tall tower that attacks the horizon, this place has a floating in midair metal big ball, its surrounding spirituality flame flaming is burning, on the day of will resemble will not extinguish forever. 阳都城域最高处,矗立着一座直插天际的高塔,此间有一枚浮于半空之中的金属大球,其周围的灵性火焰熊熊燃烧着,似是永无熄灭那一日。 Legend this is first creation solar star that Hao Clan lights, symbolized Hao Clan to rise from this act day, always resided in the space high. Naturally it had undergone certain transformation, but can provide enough spirituality strength to entire Sun Capital creation, this on behalf of the Hao Clan present creation technique. 传说这是昊族点燃的第一座造物日星,象征着昊族自此举日而升,永世高居于天上。当然其早已经过了一定的改造,只是一座就能给整个阳都的造物提供足够的灵性力量,这代表着昊族如今的造物技艺。 But in high stage ringed stage, more than ten old man who wears the golden long gown is discussing anything here at this time, this is the elder group main holding authority personnel. 而高台的环台之中,十多名穿着金色长袍的老者此时正在这里讨论着什么,这是长老团的主要柄权人员。 Entire elder group reaches hundred people actually, these people are maintaining internal taking turns on duty tradition, in Sovereign of Hao also, is responsible to Sovereign of Hao proposed that positive suggestions and auxiliary rule, is mainly responsible for maintaining this clan interests. 整个长老团实际多达百人,这些人保持着内部轮值传统,在昊皇还在的时候,负责对昊皇提出建言、辅助执政,主要负责维护本族利益。 The elder group members the choice prestige or the knowledge high person from Hao Clan join. But elder that each joined elder group, will have the oneself land and population during his tenure, and creation factory. 长老团的成员都是从昊族之中选择声望或者学识较高之人加入。而每一名加入了长老团的长老,在任职期间都会拥有自己的土地和人口,及造物工厂。 Each elder theoretically is the life-long system, but each ten annual meetings have had internal test time, the unqualified person will be rejected, however new elder, almost from forming elder group these families selects, occasionally will also absorb some fresh blood, to maintain itself not to fall into the ossification. 每一名长老理论上都是终生制,但是每过十年会有一次内部考校,不合格者则会被剔除,但是新任的长老,几乎都是从组成长老团的那些家族中选出,偶尔也会吸纳一些新鲜血液,以保持自身不陷入僵化。 At the beginning of elder group when Hao Clan establishes revolved was still good, after all it maintained the interests of Hao Clan core class. But in the past several hundred years, because the Sovereign of Hao frequent change, elder group had central territory all political power gradually, is equal to is built on stilts Sovereign of Hao. 长老团在昊族建立之初的时候运转尚算良好,毕竟其维护了昊族核心阶层的利益。可是近数百年来,由于昊皇频繁更替,长老团渐渐掌握了中域所有的政权,等同于将昊皇架空。 However this is actually not anything, because Sovereign of Hao is grasping Hao Clan highest military military force Outstanding Radiance Institution and Principle Guarding Institution, making elder group have no way to go a step further again. 但是这其实不算什么,因为昊皇掌握着昊族最高的军事武力英耀所和镇机所,使得长老团没法再更进一步了。 But present Sovereign of Hao after capturing the throne fell into the stupor not long, he does not have not dead, others have not succeeded to the throne the qualifications, this then presented the huge power vacuum. elder group then used its name to revise many articles of law, now was also within receives to take the Hao Clan highest military military force. 可是今任昊皇在夺取皇位之后没有多久就陷入了昏迷,偏偏他没还没有死,别人没有继位资格,这便出现了巨大的权力真空。长老团便利用其名义修改了不少律条,现在将昊族最高的军事武力也是间接取拿到手了。 In these years, elder group has been used to Sovereign of Hao is only nominal existence, but is governed and controlled the Hao Clan administering pattern by them, wants them to return again, that is not possible. 这几十年来,长老团已经习惯了昊皇只是名义上的存在,而由他们来治理并掌控昊族的治政格局,要他们再回到过去,那是万万不可能的。 Sits elder in middle position is at the present Uncle Sovereign of Hao Zhu Shi, his position calls „Prime Granter”, is elder group Princeps senatus. 坐在中间位置上的长老是而今昊皇伯父朱什,他的职位名唤“元授”,也即是长老团的首席元老。 On his face the wrinkle is profound, the face line is firm, the facial expression is dignified, at this moment said with the vigorous and powerful sound: „everyone, the Lie Prince method of attack has not changed long time, this situation is very unusual, Xi Prince is to attack Sun Capital, therefore the preparation strength should not absolutely, only then these, he is certainly waiting for anything.” 他脸上皱纹深刻,面庞线条刚硬,神情威严,此刻用雄浑而有力的声音道:“诸位,烈王进攻方法多日不曾改变,这情形很反常,熹王为进攻阳都,所以准备力量绝对不应该只有这些,他一定是在等待着什么。” elders did not oppose that this sees. They is a group of people of most elite in the clan choose, if oneself insufficiently outstanding, then quick will be pushed aside, in fact many elder grasped creation master of wise creation technique. 诸位长老并不反对此见。他们都是族中挑选出来的最精英的一批人,如果自身不够优秀,那么很快就会被排挤出去,事实上不少长老本身就是掌握了高明造物技艺的造物师。 They approve the judgment of Zhu Shi at present, smelled the aura of danger, but that is anything, temporarily could not have looked. 他们眼下都是认可朱什的判断,也嗅到了危险的气息,但那到底是什么,暂时还看不出来。 The previous war as a result of covering up of array restriction, they thinks cultivator and creation refiner that oneself dispatches have lost in that war completely, but actually does not think, these people had been transformed the person of Xi Prince that side completely. 前一战由于阵禁的遮掩,他们都以为自己派遣出去的修士和造物炼士已然在那一战中损失殆尽了,可却万万不会想到,这些人已然全部被转变成了熹王那一方的人。 Zhu Shi said: „We cannot wait for opportunity of change to happen, we must try the change present deadlock on own initiative, disrupts the Xi Prince possible deployment.” 朱什道:“我们不能等待变机发生,我们要主动试着改变眼下的僵局,打乱熹王可能的部署。” Has elder saying: „Pays without doubt few from the internal differentiation.” 有长老道:“从内部分化无疑付出最少。” This saying brought in the oppositions of some people: „We previously acknowledged various Xi Prince subordinate imperial clansman granted the title, but proved does not have the use, the Xi Prince armed forces' unprecedented unity, the interior to disintegrate this road to walk does not pass.” 这话引来了一些人的反对:“我们先前承认熹王下属各宗亲的封授,但是证明了没有用处,熹王军前所未有的团结,内部瓦解这条路是走不通的。” Various people also fall into silent, this is they thought that most inconceivable place, does not understand how Xi Prince is unites the person who these thoughts vary to one. 诸众人也是陷入沉默,这是他们觉得最不可思议的地方,不明白熹王是怎么把这些心思各异的人团结到一处的。 A seat is next to Zhu Shi elder to look to the seat of honor, said: „What idea does Prime Granter have?” Various elder looked, Prime Granter proposed that this judgment, that had certain mentality. 一名座位仅次于朱什的长老看向主座,道:“元授可是有什么想法么？”诸长老一齐望了过来,元授提出这番论断,那就是有了一定的思路了。 Zhu Shi looks to the people, said slowly: „I think that can change immediately the difficult position, only had Lie Prince.” 朱什看向众人,缓缓道:“我认为能改变当下困境的,只有烈王了。” „Lie Prince?” “烈王？” Zhu Shi said: „Accurate, is Lie Prince behind six factions. We need to come them to strive to help us, we can cross give them more benefits, believes that this is also they need.” 朱什道:“准确而言,是烈王身后的六派。我们需要来他们出力来帮助我们,我们可以渡送给他们更多的利益,相信这也是他们所需要的。” Has elder saying: „But we have given them to be many enough.” 有长老道:“可是我们已经给他们足够多了。” Zhu Shi said: „If we are unable to defeat Xi Prince, that anything does not have,” he emphasized that „places our body, similarly is so.” 朱什道:“如果我们无法击败熹王,那就什么都没有,”他强调了一句,“放在我们身上,也同样是如此。” Saw him saying that various elder have to give careful consideration to this matter. The chip that now their in the hand can use is few, particularly after front suffered a rout, the upper layer strength loses is quite serious, has lost the ability that has initiatedded an attack, otherwise so will not be passive. 见他如此说,诸长老也不得不慎重考虑这件事。现在他们手中能用的筹码很少,尤其是前面遭遇了一次大败后,上层力量损失极为惨重,已经失去了主动出击的能力,要不然也不会如此被动。 Before saving more strengths, indeed only had wins over Lie Prince and six great faction with every effort, this also they can count on at present only. 在积蓄出更多的力量之前,的确唯有尽力拉拢烈王和六大派了,这也他们目前唯一能指望的。 Although does that will cause the cultivator strength phenomenally to promote, but cultivator has a shortcoming, upper layer cultivator is need year after year cultivation can the achievement. The increase of the overall strength, that at least needs to wait for several hundred over a thousand years. In this so long time span, the Hao Clan technique has been able to promote to coercing the cultivator situation. 虽然这么做会导致修道人的力量空前提升,可是修道人有个缺点,上层修士是需要年复一年的修行才能成就的。其总体力量的提升,那至少要等待数百上千年。这如此长的时间跨度中,昊族的技艺早就能提升到压服修道人的地步了。 At this time elder said scruple: „Prime Granter, actually we could......” 这时有一名长老迟疑道:“元授,其实我们或许可以……” Is speaking, suddenly the people thought where is not right, looking up, is actually the shocking discovery, that protect entire Sun Capital defend Hao God, its body, its whole body was glittering the clear ray such as to lean the sea water to turn round unexpectedly slowly but actually generally but actually, and extinguishes one after another in this process. 正说话之间,忽然众人觉得什么地方不对,抬头一看,却是震惊的发现,那遮护着整个阳都守御的昊神,其身躯居然缓缓倒了下来,其浑身闪烁着晶莹的光芒如倒倾海水一般倒覆下来,并在这个过程中陆续熄灭下去。 To elder group various elder, this accident, no indication that it may be said that comes. 对长老团的诸长老来说,此一变故,可谓来的毫无征兆。 This moment Sun Capital withstood/top the ray that long-time did not fade to be as if dim, but spirituality and magical power ray is actually flooding vault of heaven each corner, later various elder showed the unbelievable look. In that bright qi, one after another was once the familiar person's shadow appeared there, and was unemotional is overlooking them, is overlooking entire Sun Capital. 此刻阳都顶上长久不衰的光芒仿佛黯淡了下来,但是灵性和法力光芒却是充斥着天穹的每一个角落,随后诸长老露出难以置信的神色。就在那光气之中,一个个似是曾经熟悉的人影出现在了那里,并且都是面无表情的俯视着他们,俯视着整个阳都。 In the Shining Capital Lie Prince temporary palace, Lie Prince in the rear palace to magnificent color bird feeding that oneself raises, this bird is very intelligently lively, after each time throws the food, will express a delightful happy cry. 煌都烈王行宫之内,烈王正在后殿给自己豢养的一只华丽的彩禽喂食,这只鸟十分活泼聪明,每次投食之后,就会发出一声悦耳的欢鸣。 Adviser Wú entered in the palace at this time, not to near, rapid say/way: „Your highness, Sun Capital urgent report.” 吴参议这时进入殿中,还未至近前,就急促道:“殿下,阳都急报。” Lie Prince takes up a handkerchief, scratched the hand, took jade board to look, he first reveals the color of being startled, later shakes the head, Xi Prince also was really Xi Prince, but can also cause this, but also really let the person how, regardless of unable to think. 烈王拿起一块手帕,擦了擦手,拿过玉板看了一下,他先是露出吃惊之色,随后摇了摇头,熹王还真是熹王,还能弄出这一手,还真让人无论如何也想不到。 For several days within, the circumstance reverses greatly, the strength of Sun Capital power balance had been broken, before the reason lies, doubtful was stranded the great array upper layer strength to reverse to that side Xi Prince in the war completely, included from being his side manpower. 短短几天之内,情势大为逆转,阳都原本均势的力量已然被打破了,原因在于之前疑似在战争中被困大阵的上层力量完全倒向了熹王那一边,其中还包括了原本从属于他这一边的人手。 Is good also has Outstanding Radiance Institution and Principe Guarding Institution these two big strengths because of elder group, but can also reluctantly keep the frame from falling. 好在长老团还有“英耀所”、“镇机所”这两大力量,还能勉强维持着架子不倒。 Adviser Wú said: „Your highness, although Sun Capital can also support, seems like can also support for a long time, but the upper layer strength really has now insufficient, without the foreign aid, possibly Sun Capital really could not defend.” 吴参议道:“殿下,虽然阳都还能支撑,看上去还能撑许久,但是如今上层力量确实有所不足,要是没有外援,可能阳都真的守不住了。” Lie Prince is at crucial moment the person of being able to decide, but considered a while, access road/simply said: „Adviser Wú, please come High Venerable Yu.” 烈王是在关键时候很下得了决心之人,只是考虑了一会儿,便道:“吴参议,把于上尊请过来。” Adviser Wú knows that wanted to make anything, but he had no way to speak to advise at this time, sighed one, said one is, was ordered to depart. 吴参议知道想要做什么了,可是这时候他也没法出言劝阻了,叹了一声,道一声是,便奉命离去了。 Daoist Yu has kept Shining Capital for these days, at this time he had also known the Sun Capital news, he also and other responses of Lie Prince, if has had no sound, that must make six great faction try to Lie Prince to exert pressure. 于道人这几天一直留在煌都,这时他也已是知道了阳都的消息,他也在等烈王的回应,若是一直没有什么动静,那就要让六大派设法向烈王施压了。 This does not have the means to choose, compared with coping with guard in Light Capital that details unclear tyrannical cultivator, how to see that is Lie Prince here is easier to cope. And it is no doubt that Lie Prince was depends on their cultivator to be prosperous, did not have possibly neglects their opinions. 这是没办法选择,比起对付镇守在光都的那一位底细不明的强横修士,怎么看都是烈王这里更容易对付一些。且不用说,烈王是靠着他们修道人才能兴盛起来的,根本无可能忽视他们的意见。 But he when hears Lie Prince to summon oneself, in the heart had several points to anticipate. He followed Adviser Wú to arrive in the Lie Prince temporary palace, after seeing Lie Prince, then tried to inquire that the latter sought the intention that oneself came. 而他在听到烈王要召见自己的时候,心中不由有了几分期待。他跟随着吴参议来到了烈王行宫之中,在见到烈王之后,便试着询问后者寻自己前来的用意。 Lie Prince this time has not beaten around the bush, but acknowledged directly that expedites shipment curse strength magical item his here, but cannot say that other day was intends to deceive, therefore used another set of excuse in Adviser Wú, said that after was hears Daoist Yu brought the news, they are also seeking to exert the whereabout of person of curse technique, finally successfully found, sought this thing. 烈王这次没有拐弯抹角,而是直接坦承,那催运咒力的法器就在他这里,不过自是不能说上回是有意欺瞒,故是在吴参议自是用了另一套说辞,说是听闻于道人带来消息后,他们也在找寻施加咒法之人的下落,最后成功找到了,也寻到了这东西。 By this matter each other is well aware, so long as in the surface could pass were OK immediately, Daoist Yu will not reveal. Therefore after is hears this matter, he in turn expresses thanks: „That actually also wanted Your Highness thanks.” 这件事情两边彼此心知肚明,只要面上过得去便就可以了,于道人也不会去揭穿。故是听到此事后,他反过来致谢道:“那却还要谢过殿下了。” Lie Prince said: „This thing gives you, you can guarantee that solves the Xi Prince matter?” 烈王道:“此物交给贵方,贵方能保证解决熹王的事情么？” Daoist Yu thinks, serious expression said: „Yu/some is unable to guarantee, but this also has your highness the matter of life and death related to six factions, we will certainly make contribution, moreover this was also the present most feasible means.” 于道人想了想,正容道:“于某无法给保证,但这也是涉及六派还有殿下的生死之事,我们一定会尽力,而且这也是眼下最为可行的办法了。” Lie Prince had not asked that but lifted starting. 烈王没有多问,而是抬了下手。 The sound of footsteps gets up, a retinue holds jade plate to assume, to the near, after the silk arrange/cloth lifted, Daoist Yu then saw that in the plate put one one foot to come the long platy gold/metal copper bird, its presented spreads the wings to fly the shape, but on the side of its head deviation, the eye was the cavity that pecked, was only looks at, he thinks that in the heart exuded a dense cool feeling. 脚步声起,一名仆从托着一只玉盘呈走过来,到了近前,将绸布掀开后,于道人便见到盘中放着一个一尺来长的扁平状金铜飞鸟,其呈现展翅欲飞之状,但其头颅偏向一边,眼目是啄出来的空洞,只是看着,他就觉心中泛起一股森森凉意。 His takes a breath, said: „Is this thing?” 他吸了口气,道:“就是此物么？” Lie Prince had not replied, the servant who that holds jade plate is actually one kneels down, then the whole body trembled, obviously his whole body body fast withered scorched, in short several breaths, the whole person on changed one to put on the clothing bleached bone rack, and maintained that to kneel to sit the appearance of tray. 烈王还未回答,那个托着玉盘的仆役却是一下跪倒在地,而后浑身哆嗦了起来,可见他浑身皮肉飞快的干枯焦烂,就在短短数息之内,整个人就化变了一个具穿着衣物枯骨架子,并保持着那个跪坐托盘的样子。 Daoist Yu heart one cold, just now felt that seizes every opportunity evil qi, but also distinguishes now again, seems an misconception. 于道人不由心头一凛,方才感觉到一股无孔不入邪气,还现在再辨,似乎又是一个错觉。 Lie Prince is unalarmed by strange sights saying: „This thing must swallow to attract flesh of living person every day, this can maintain to Xi Prince curse strength, after you take away, must pay attention.” 烈王见怪不怪道:“此物每日需吞吸一个生人的血肉,这才能维持对熹王的咒力,贵方拿去后,也要注意了。” The Daoist Yu prudent nod, this loses him not to care, he also said: „Your highness, I must have the thing to return to beyond heaven, only has the various factions joint effort, can find to promote the method of curse strength.” 于道人慎重点头,这点损失他倒不放在心上,他又道:“殿下,我需带着物返回天外,唯有诸派合力,才能找到推动咒力之法。” Arrived this step, Lie Prince is also waves very much naturally, said: „High Venerable Yu takes away then well this, I anticipated very much you take to my news.” 到了这步,烈王也是很大方一挥手,道:“于上尊将此拿去便好,我很期待贵方下来带给我的消息。” ...... …… ...... ……
