Chapter 818: Invisible Battle
When Huang Guozhong prepared the honor guard to go out of the city to greet him, Xiao Zhang and the three of them had already come to the gate of the Soul Capital City, Huang Guozhong was obviously a little caught off guard, he thought that Xiao Zhang would play a show, and he waited thirty miles outside the city to greet him.
Of course, what really caught Huang Guozhong off guard was that Xiao Zhang had already come to the outside of the Soul Capital City, there were many people, and it was at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if he started to attack Xiao Zhang like this, I am afraid it would be a little inconvenient.
However, Huang Guozhong is a figure above 10,000 people under one person, almost monopolizing the power of the court, even the emperor has to give him three points, and this person is also extremely conceited, he believes that the emperor will definitely not punish him, the world's most powerful minister, for a mere Xiao Zhang.
Huang Guozhong still has to act according to the plan, he wants to get rid of Xiao Zhang, because Xiao Zhang has killed his two sons, and he has made the dignified Huang family extinct, this blood feud, he must revenge!
While thinking about revenge, Huang Guozhong hurriedly ran to Xiao Zhang, and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, Deputy Head Xiao, the old man is late to greet him, please forgive me!"
Seeing Huang Guozhong's smiling appearance, Xiao Zhang was embarrassed, so he responded with a cold face: "The Prime Minister can go out of the city to greet him, Xiao Zhang is grateful." ”
Huang Guozhong said with a smile: "Deputy Head Xiao is magnanimous, and he really deserves to be a court talent appointed by His Majesty!"
Xiao Zhang didn't bother to pay attention to Huang Guozhong anymore, and when he raised his head, he was about to bypass Huang Guozhong and enter the city gate.
Huang Guozhong's face changed, and then he hurriedly said: "Deputy Head Xiao, please stay, you have traveled thousands of miles to find His Royal Highness the Thirteenth, but you are a great hero, how can you enter the city without being welcomed? If this matter spreads, not only you, Deputy Head Xiao, but also the old man, the prime minister, will not be able to get by in terms of face." ”
Xiao Zhang's heart suddenly felt unhappy, he knew that Huang Guozhong was going to take over the prince's class and continue to carry out the assassination plan. He originally wanted to take a few quick steps and be relatively safe when he entered the city gate, however, Huang Guozhong's face was so thick-skinned.
"I've never been a fan of ceremonial activities, so I'll just leave it at that. Xiao Zhang didn't look back, and continued to walk forward, "I understand the kindness of the Prime Minister." ”
Seeing that Xiao Zhang had no intention of stopping, Huang Guozhong no longer persuaded and shouted directly into the city gate: "Honor guard, line up to greet!"
With Huang Guozhong's words, some uniquely dressed honor guards immediately ran out of the city gate, stood in two rows on both sides of the city gate, and began to play music after a little preparation, and the melodious and passionate music suddenly sounded.
Huang Guozhong's honor guard was small in number, only eighteen people, standing in two rows outside the city gate, holding strange musical instruments of different shapes.
Xiao Zhang frowned, he knew that this should be the trap laid by Huang Guozhong, perhaps, it was the short distance of more than ten zhang from the city gate, it would be the most terrifying purgatory, and every time he took a step forward, he might fall into a catastrophe.
Xiao Zhang stood in front of the honor guard, quietly looking at the city gate not far away, he didn't squint, as if he didn't see these honor guards.
He also knew that this was already at the foot of the Soul Capital City, and it was infinitely close to the center of power in the world, and the slightest disturbance could alarm the high-ranking Ninety-Five Venerable in the city. Even if Huang Guozhong has the courage, he doesn't dare to make too much trouble, so this trap, it can also be said that this battle will definitely be carried out in a silent state. There can be no scenes, no lights, no sounds.
Moreover, this is not only a constraint on Huang Guozhong, but also a constraint on Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhang must not have any movement when he launches a counterattack, otherwise he may be seized by Huang Guozhong and infinitely regarded as "plotting against the enemy and having the heart of rebellion." ”
Xiao Zhang can be said to be walking on thin ice, any wrong step, there will be no way back, he is thinking, what kind of method Huang Guozhong will use to attack.
Yes, it is very likely that the formation is laid out. Xiao Zhang guessed, step by step began to walk forward slowly but very steadily, and sure enough, when he had just entered the control of the honor guard, he found that as expected, Huang Guozhong's attack method was indeed a formation.
In this way, Xiao Zhang can rest assured, because he can now be said to be the ancestor of the formation, he has fiery eyes, and any formation and prohibition are as vulnerable as a soap bubble in his eyes.
However, as soon as this interest came up, Xiao Zhang was reluctant to directly puncture Huang Guozhong's soap bubble, he wanted to see what tricks Huang Guozhong could come up with in terms of formations.
In Xiao Zhang's field of vision, the formation showed a very clear outline, and the control range was not large, it was cast from the six honor guards at the front.
However, the function of this formation surprised Xiao Zhang.
He found that this formation was actually coming towards the prototype of Soul Slayer. The Soul Slayer Prototype was connected to Xiao Zhang's soul, and it was extremely strong, and ordinary formations couldn't separate it at all. However, Huang Guozhong's formation wants to take a shortcut, isn't it not easy for you to separate? Okay, I won't separate, I will take away your Xiao Zhang's soul together!
Xiao Zhang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, if he was a little careless just now, it was really possible that his soul would be taken away by Huang Guozhong.
The principle of this set of formations is similar to Xiao Zhang's Soul Snatcher Bag, and its Soul Snatching ability is countless times stronger than the Soul Snatcher Bag, the Soul Snatcher Bag cannot take away Xiao Zhang's soul, and this Soul Snatcher Formation is okay!
Xiao Zhang was secretly frightened, he had to find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise it was really possible to capsize in this gutter. Of course, it would be easy for him to destroy this formation directly, but Xiao Zhang was stubborn, and he had to find a way to break this formation.
It's really different, he really came up with a way, he has used this method before, that is, he used Chiyou's body to resist it. Chi You's body is just Chi You's corpse, and it has no soul at all, so it is perfect to use it to resist this formation.
As a result, Xiao Zhang immediately relied on his extremely fast speed to control Chi You's body, while his own body hid in the soul snatcher bag. The Soul Reaver Bag could naturally protect Xiao Zhang's body and his soul from the attack of the formation.
Since it was just Chi You's corpse, Xiao Zhang's soul was not attached to it, so standing there and shaking, the six honor guards who cast the formation thought that Xiao Zhang's soul was about to be taken away because of pain, so they began to urge the formation even harder.
The next moment, Xiao Zhang fell to the ground, and seemed to have no breath of life.
However, the faces of the six honor guards who performed the formation changed greatly, and they only felt a surge in their bodies, and blood flowed from the corners of their mouths, because they had consumed too much energy to urge the formation, but they had nowhere to focus, so they damaged the dantian.
