Chapter 1676 Hide the Truth
Just when everyone thought that the war in Qi County was going to be in full swing, three days later, the Dark Dragon Emperor fired a false shot and led his troops to retreat.
The Master of Life and Death, the Master of Mountains and Rivers, and Zhu Rong looked at each other in astonishment.
Kong Yanliang didn't know why, but he was overjoyed.
The demon soldiers of the East China Sea come and go in a hurry...
Before everyone in the world could react, another piece of news came one after another.
The Lord of the Netherworld Ghost Realm, Ghost Saint Xu Wan, together with his Ghost Mother, who was also a Heavenly Lord, led the elite ghost cultivators of the Netherworld Ghost Realm to sweep across the entire Western Shu Prefecture.
Bingfeng points to - Yumen Tianguan!
From beginning to end, the Buddhist gate in Xishu Prefecture remained silent...
As a result, the ghost army was like wind and clouds, reaching directly to Yumen Tianguan.
On the west side of Yumen Tianguan, the Ghost Saint and the Ghost Mother, one in front and the other behind.
On the east side of Yumen Tianguan, Feng Caiyi and Jiang Sixian stood side by side.
The four heavenly deities faced each other from afar.
"The style of the Ghost Saint will remain the same forever!" Feng Caiyi bowed slowly and smiled lightly: "I just didn't expect that the Netherworld Ghost Realm of Western Shuzhou would be mixed up with the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea? Is there someone who is pulling the strings, or is there a connection between them? ?”
"Feng Caiyi! Put away your long-sleeved dance skills, you are not qualified yet!"
"Hmph! You are only allowed to make false claims, but I am not allowed to ask questions?"
"Let's talk about it after the battle - let's see if you survive!"
After a disagreement, the Ghost Saint boldly attacked Feng Caiyi.
At the same time, the silent ghost mother and Jiang Sixian were fighting together.
The four great Heavenly Lords were flying in the sky and escaping from the earth near Yumen Tianguan, fighting against the heaven and the earth.
When the gods fight, it is impossible to distinguish between life and death unless necessary...
For a time, the entire Yumen Tianguan with a radius of hundreds of miles was reduced to a battlefield.
Suddenly there was a man, holding a sword, walking slowly from west to east.
Entering the battle group, the man's figure swayed slightly.
Arriving in front of Yumen Tianguan, the man raised the knife in his hand.
When the sword was struck out, the whole world was shocked.
Black shadows and ghostly energy flew out from the single sword, turning into yin energy ghost swords, constantly impacting the Yumen Tianguan.
Yumen Tianguan, as the first line of defense on the outside of Zhongzhou, is extremely strong.
Even if it were an ordinary Nascent Soul Ancestor, he could not damage it even with a full blow.
However, under the ghost sword that filled the sky with yin energy, the Yumen Tianguan fell apart.
Seeing it, the entire Yumen Tianguan is about to collapse...
What’s even more astonishing is: that man’s method is absolutely extraordinary!
Once he destroys the Yumen Tianguan, will he intervene in the battle between the Four Heavenly Lords? Once he intervenes in the battle, Feng Caiyi and Jiang Sixian will definitely lose.
Failure is likely to result in death!
At the same time, Du Tianfeng.
Before he could recover from the joy of Qijun's retreat, Du Tianfeng received news from Qinjun asking for help - Netherworld Ghost Realm, marching into Qinjun!
When Du Tianfeng got the news on Chuyi, he didn't take it seriously.
Ghost Saint Xumaru, are you crazy?
Isn't he afraid that Kasyapa will cut off his retreat and be attacked from both sides?
It wasn't until the battle situation at Yumen Tianguan was transmitted back to Du Tianfeng that Du Tianfeng became alert. If he continued to ignore it, Yumen Tianguan would surely fall.
Yumen Tianguan is a major means for Zhongzhou to make money.
If possible, I will do my best to protect it.
Unfortunately, the Lord of Life and Death, Lord of Mountains and Rivers, and Zhu Rong are still far away in Qi County and cannot return to the defense. If they are allowed to rush directly from Qi County to Qin County, it will take several days.
Even if there is a teleportation array, it is not easy to come and go.
The most important thing is: the demon soldiers of the East China Sea retreated strangely.
What if the three great Heavenly Lords have just left, and the demon soldiers from the East China Sea are coming again?
By then, will Qijun be saved?
In desperation, Du Tianfeng dispatched the hidden strength of the Nine Holy Lands.
Among the nine holy lands, except Yanji Sect, there is no Tianzun elder. Sword Spirit Valley has the death of Jinli Sword Master. Almost all other holy lands have a Tianzun elder in charge.
Especially Sanqingguan, Tianzun elders, there are several of them.
This time, the three Tianzun elders rushed to Qin County's aid.
They come from: Ice and Fire Demon Palace, Valley of Life and Death and Mountain and River Palace.
The three Tianzun elders first teleported from Tiandu City to Xianyang City, and then headed straight from Xianyang City to Yumen Tianguan...
At the same time, Du Tianfeng contacted the holy monk Kasyapa.
"Kasyapa! What on earth did you do? How could you let Ghost Saint Xu Wan attack Yumen Tianguan? What do you, the Buddhist sect of Xishu Prefecture, think?"
"Is this happening!? The young monk has been in retreat, he didn't know!"
"You! Humph! The Ghost Saint is attacking Yumen Tianguan, and our capital, Tianfeng, has also sent three elders to rescue Yumen Tianguan. You can figure it out!"
"In this case, Beneficiary Xu must be in bad luck, and it's none of Xiao Monk's fault! However... Almsgiver Xu really went too far this time! Xiao Monk then sent the Buddhist protector to Yumen Tianguan to find out what was going on. If he could persuade him to make peace, Naturally, peace is the most precious thing!”
"Hmph! Kasyapa! If you want Western Shu State to remain in chaos, you'd better do something!"
After saying this, communication was interrupted.
The little monk stood up from under the bodhi tree and murmured to himself.
"Amitabha! The rebellion in Western Shu is certain!"
Outside Tiandu City, there is war and chaos; inside Tiandu City, there is peace and harmony with singing and dancing.
If you look around, there will be tidbits and gossip on the spiritual vision.
Regarding the confrontation in Qijun and the battle that took place at Yumen Tianguan, I occasionally touched on it, but they were all briefly mentioned - even if there were, the people in Tiandu City didn't care.
The spiritual war has passed, and for Tiandu City, the catastrophe is over!
The tragedy that happened when Xuanwu and his men came to the city and all the gods from all directions fought against Tiandu will definitely not happen again. Tiandu City has once again returned to its former prosperity.
Walking on the streets of Tiandu City, Xu Lijin felt the same way.
Over the years, Xu Lijin has been staying behind closed doors.
Just because there is a demon in his heart - Nanyue Xiao Mian!
Although Shanhe Zun said that Xiao Mian died ten years ago!
Although in the past ten years, there has indeed been no trace of Xiao Mian in the world of cultivation.
But whenever Xu Lijin closes her eyes, she will see that figure from behind...
Xu Lijin could not remember clearly the battle at Yunhai Sword Court that day. He only knew that his twin sister Xu Liyu was killed by Xiao Mian, and that he himself was severely injured by Xiao Mian.
Later, Xu Lijin was at a loss if she had escaped...
Since then, Xu Lijin has been secluded in Shanhe Palace.
It was not until the expiration of the ten years that Xu Lijin broke out of the barrier, walked out of Shanhe Palace, and out of Dutian Peak. Xu Lijin came to Tiandu City by accident.
Seeing that Tiandu City was as prosperous as before, Xu Lijin felt relieved.
But at this moment, a figure came forward.
"Master Xu Li! Are you okay?"
Xu Lijin turned around suddenly and saw a monk in white clothes appearing near him. He looked at him, held his hands in front of him, and smiled faintly.
Seeing that the other party seemed to have no ill intentions, Xu Lijin felt at ease.
But Xu Lijin looked at the man carefully and found that he didn't recognize him.
"Who are you……"
"Master Xu Li is indeed a noble man who forgets things!" Putting down his clasped hands, the white-clothed monk said calmly: "My surname is Luo, Master Xu Li, do you remember?"
"Luo..." Xu Lijin looked confused. Gradually, some enlightenment emerged. Finally, she patted her forehead and suddenly realized: "It turns out to be Brother Luo!"
"Brother Xu Li! Luo has prepared some wine at Qiankun Tower, please!"
"……,please!"
Although she still couldn't remember what kind of friendship she had with this person named Luo, Xu Lijin was very sure: the other person would not harm her!
After talking about the Qiankun Tower, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
The two walked out of the Qiankun Tower hand in hand, clasped their fists and saluted, and parted ways.
Seeing the sky getting dark, Xu Lijin walked out of Tiandu City and headed towards Dutian Peak.
After a smooth journey, Xu Lijin arrived at the entrance of Shanhe Palace City, but suddenly remembered something - he had been feeling restless recently and wanted some good medicine.
Stopping the steps that were about to enter the mountains, rivers and palaces, Xu Lijin turned to the Valley of Life and Death.
The sect’s residence in the Valley of Life and Death—Emerald Mountain Waterfall!
With Xu Lijin's identity, it was naturally not difficult to enter the Valley of Life and Death. Ling Xiao happened to be free, so she came forward to entertain Xu Lijin.
"Brother Xu Li is a rare visitor! I don't know why you are here?"
"Fellow Daoist Lingxiao is ridiculous! Xu Li feels uneasy today..."
"Really? How about letting Ling Xiao take a pulse on Brother Xu Li?"
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Lingxiao!"
After feeling the pulse, I was speechless.
"Brother Xu Li must be too worried, right? I have also heard about that incident ten years ago. The evil thief killed Xu Li's sister in front of Brother Xu Li. It was really unconscionable! It was just ten years ago , the evil thief brought it upon himself, and died unjustly, which can be regarded as revenge for sister Xu Li! Ten years have passed, why should brother Xu Li be persistent? "
"The old things from back then are still vivid in my mind..."
"Let's do this! Ling Xiao will prepare some calming medicine for Brother Xu Li. Brother Xu Li will try it first. If it works, it's best!" With a casual move, Ling Xiao quickly prepared the medicine and handed it over. To Xu Lijin, he still did not forget to explain: "Brother Xu Li! The way of elixirs is a heretic after all. It should be noted: Heart diseases need to be healed by heart medicine!"
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lingxiao! Xu Li takes his leave!"
"No!"
Seeing Xu Lijin disappear, Ling Xiao put away his previous smile.
snort!
He is just the second-generation ancestor of the Xu Li family. If his surname was not Xu Li, who would he be?
Xu Liyu died, which was an advantage for this kid!
After all, Xiao Mian still helped him...
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao suddenly felt something in his heart.
What kind of energy is wasted on this second generation ancestor?
Now that the Valley Master is restraining Qi County, the Great Elder is rushing to Qin County. The entire Valley of Life and Death lacks top-notch combat power, so it is best to prevent anything from happening.
Although the spiritual war has passed, as long as South Vietnam is not destroyed, the world will not be peaceful!
The Valley Master and the Great Elder are both running around for peace in the world. As the successor of the contemporary Holy Land of the Valley of Life and Death, I should be brave and diligent and reach higher levels.
With this thought in mind, Ling Xiao left the pharmacy and headed towards the Immortal Tree.
The world only thinks that the Immortal Tree is a symbol of the Valley of Life and Death. In fact, the Immortal Tree is in the hands of the Valley of Life and Death, just like the fusang tree was in the hands of the Three East China Sea Gods.
The Immortal Tree has been imprisoned, enslaved, and exploited by the Valley of Life and Death for generations...
In the Valley of Life and Death, the trunk of the Immortal Tree was even hollowed out to create a secret chamber.
There is a secret room among them, which is the highest standard and the most tightly guarded in the Valley of Life and Death.
That is the Sutra Pavilion that secretly hides the eternal Kung Fu passed down from the Valley of Life and Death lineage!
Today, Ling Xiao has achieved a breakthrough to the high level of Nascent Soul. As a descendant of the contemporary holy land of the Valley of Life and Death, Ling Xiao is able to enter this scripture-depositing pavilion.
The Lord of Life and Death wanted Ling Xiao to cultivate to the top level of Nascent Soul as soon as possible.
At that time, you can start trying to take that last step...
The end of Sword Spirit Master's life and the unexpected death of Sword Master Yunhai made Life and Death Master and other Holy Land Sect Masters feel sad. One day, they will follow in his footsteps.
Only if future generations of disciples work bravely and diligently can the Valley of Life and Death survive forever!
Ling Xiao also understood the painstaking efforts of the Lord of Life and Death. Whenever he had free time, he devoted himself to hard work.
Before Ningying, Ling Xiao's prototype of the realm was the Immortal Sanctuary.
Before the great calamity, by chance, Ling Xiao took a longevity fruit, and she comprehended the prototype of another domain - the world of longevity!
After surviving the great calamity and becoming a Yuanying ancestor, Ling Xiao's domain was neither the Immortal Holy Land nor the world of longevity, but - the Immortal Longevity Heaven!
This Immortal Longevity Heaven has some characteristics of the Immortal Holy Land and the world of longevity, but they complement each other. It is rare for the successors of the Valley of Life and Death to have such understanding.
Because of this, the Valley of Life and Death has high hopes for Ling Xiao.
Privately, he even taught him the two exercises he had practiced...
One is "One Breath of Longevity"!
The other is "Nine Turns of Immortality"!
This "One Breath of Longevity" refines a breath of longevity true qi.
At first, a cultivator can breathe in and out a breath of true qi for an hour. When the cultivation is advanced, this breath of true qi will be infinitely extended...
One day, one month, one year, or even a lifetime!
It is said that if one practices the "One Breath of Longevity" to the extreme, one will only practice one breath of longevity qi throughout his life. If the qi exists, he will live, and if the qi is exhausted, he will die!
The "Nine Turns of Immortality" is a way to specialize in immortality.
When a cultivator practices the "Nine Turns of Immortality", his body will turn nine times, and he will be immortal.
The reason why the Lord of Life and Death can take that step and be ranked as the Lord of Heaven is that he practices these two techniques at the same time, integrates them, and achieves supreme power.
In time, if Ling Xiao achieves something, he will definitely go further.
At this time, Ling Xiao held the "One Breath of Longevity" in one hand and the "Nine Turns of Immortality" in the other hand, looking at his left hand and his right hand.
With full concentration, Ling Xiao unconsciously read aloud...
In the quiet Sutra Library, Ling Xiao's voice was like the sound of nature.
Suddenly, Ling Xiao was shocked and woke up.
What happened to him?
Even if he devoted himself to practice on weekdays, he would not be so deep!
Suspicious, Ling Xiao suddenly used his full spiritual sense to scan the entire Sutra Library.
There was only Ling Xiao in the Sutra Library, and other than that, it was empty...
Damn it!
Could it be that he was infected by Xu Lijin's second-generation ancestor?
Why did he become suspicious today when he was always as clear-minded as ice?
Uneasy, practicing would only lead to obsession. Ling Xiao simply put down the secret book, walked out of the Sutra Library, and ordered the monks in the Valley of Life and Death to be on high alert.
How could she know: what was supposed to come had already come, and even left!
Let's talk about Yumen Tianguan again, the battle was in full swing...
Ghost Saint, Ghost Mother, Feng Caiyi, Jiang Sixian, the four great celestial masters, seemed to be fighting a duel, playing one round in the morning, one round in the afternoon, and resting at night.
This continued for three days, every day.
Until the three elders of the Holy Land of Dutian Peak came to help.
During these three days, the man with the knife - Axin, was not idle either!
With each blow, Yumen Tianguan was almost being executed by slow slicing!
When the three elders of the holy land arrived, Yumen Tianguan was on the verge of collapse...
Seeing the four great celestial masters, including Ghost Saint, fighting each other, and seeing Ah Xin acting as if no one was around, the great elder of the Ice and Fire Demon Palace, Yan Jingzun, attacked Ah Xin without saying a word.
Huang Longsheng, the great elder of the Valley of Life and Death, and Xu Lizhou, the great elder of the Mountain and River Palace, looked at each other and felt relieved - since Yan Jingzun had already made a move, they could just sit back and watch.
They wanted to see: where did the knife-wielding boy come from!
Could it be that in addition to the four great saints, there was another genius in the Netherworld Ghost Domain?
Yan Jingzun seemed reckless, but in fact, he could survive to the realm of celestial master, how could he be an idiot?
Once he made a move, Yan Jingzun was both ice and fire, and killed both gods.
He swung his hands, holding an ice knife in his left hand and a fire blade in his right hand. The ice knife froze the body, and the fire blade hurt the mind. If ordinary cultivators were not careful, they would lose sight of one and lose the other, and they would die on the spot.
Who is Ah Xin?
Ah Xin is not even a human!
Whether it is an ice knife that freezes the body or a fire blade that hurts the mind, I will cut it with one knife!
The black single knife slashed down from top to bottom, the ice knife shattered, and the fire blade extinguished.
Not only that!
A black knife aura staggered the ice and fire and hit Yan Jingzun directly!
Ah Xin was too lazy to defend, and directly broke the attack with the attack...
He broke it easily, and Yan Jingzun was dumbfounded.
Yan Jingzun wanted to give Ah Xin a warning, or at least to test Ah Xin's strength. Who would have thought that Ah Xin was so relaxed and domineering.
Before Yan Jingzun could react, the black knife aura came towards him.
The cold and gloomy aura made Yan Jingzun shudder!
It was this shudder that made Yan Jingzun give up the idea of taking the blow head-on, and also saved his life - otherwise, even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured!
This dark blade energy seemed random, but in fact it was the resentment of thousands of undead souls gathered in one blade. For living beings, it was the most dangerous. If it was not careful, it would be a disaster.
With a sudden strange cry, Yan Jingzun dodged sideways without any grace.
But because he could not avoid it in time, a strand of hair was cut by the dark blade energy.
The broken hair turned into ashes, and the hair roots turned white in an instant!
Although Yan Jingzun was not young, the age of a cultivator was not judged by appearance. If he had the heart, he could be like Jian Lingzun, who was still a teenager even after death.
Although Yan Jingzun had some gray hair before, it was only half white.
A knife passed by, and the hair turned white in an instant!
As outsiders, Huang Longsheng and Xu Lizhou saw it clearly at a glance and looked at each other in shock.
Although Yan Jingzun couldn't see his white hair, he could feel the vitality in his body rapidly released at that moment, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
His spiritual sense swept through, and his inner vision became clear.
Yan Jingzun's face changed drastically, and his heart was shocked - his feeling was not an illusion!
Yan Jingzun, who already had a short life span, lost a lot of his remaining life span!
Looking up at Ah Xin in black, Yan Jingzun was full of fear...
For a dying person, what could be more terrifying than depriving him of his vitality?
Yan Jingzun wanted to take revenge, but he didn't dare to do it - he was afraid that he would die next time!
At least there was a great elder of the Valley of Life and Death, Huang Longsheng, who was present at the scene. He noticed Yan Jingzun's embarrassment, took a deep breath, and took the responsibility.
He was in the Valley of Life and Death, not only practicing the way of life, but also the way of death!
Exhaling like thunder, Huang Longsheng took a step forward to fight Ah Xin.
Although he faced the challenge, Huang Longsheng did not dare to underestimate Ah Xin. He threw it casually, and a stream of yellow light gushed out from the bottom of his sleeves and rushed towards Ah Xin.
This yellow light was a yellow dragon with a whole body of earth yellow!
The body of this thing was not a yellow dragon, but a whole plant of Xuanhuang Dragon Cypress!
The dragon fought in the wild, its blood was Xuanhuang!
It is said that this Xuanhuang Longbai is the blood of a real dragon swayed on the spiritual cypress tree. Over time, the tree contains the power of a dragon, and it has become a ninth-level spiritual plant!
Huang Longsheng was lucky enough to accidentally get a whole Xuanhuang Longbai.
After much effort, Huang Longsheng used the supreme secret technique of the Valley of Life and Death to continuously refine this Xuanhuang Longbai, and finally formed a puppet thing that was neither alive nor dead.
During the battle, the Xuanhuang Longbai looked like a yellow dragon, with a hidden dragon power...
Huang Longsheng's life cultivation, but more than half of it fell on this Xuanhuang Longbai. Because of this, Huang Longsheng ranked among the Heavenly Venerables and called himself "Huanglong".
