Chapter 512 - Attracting the King
Yunze, the imperial city.
In a quiet room made of jade, full of brilliance and magnificence, the emperor of Yun Zeguo's generation, as well as his eldest son Yun Zhanyu, and the six envoys of the Tibetan Sword Villa, they sat together, and in the middle of them, there was a big stone, the stone surface was smooth as a mirror, and there was a layer of cloud light, and you could see that there were dots of red light and blue shadows on it, and a little bit disappeared from time to time.
The emperor lowered his eyes slightly, as if he didn't care too much, Yun Zhanyu stood beside him calmly, with a solemn expression, and his two eyes were staring at the picture on the stone.
The dense red dots on it were like bright lights, and suddenly two more red dots went out quickly. Xuanguang Zhenren, who was sitting opposite the emperor, said with some surprise: "The two array flags of Rongtianling were actually taken away?" This time, if it was the Yuan and Qin families, they wouldn't have gone to such a dangerous place so early, right? ”
Yun Zhanyu said with some excitement: "If it's not them, then it's the best, where will it be, Cumulus Peak, Evergreen Palace?" He quickly read out seven or eight names, all of which were the most powerful shili in Yunze after the Yuan and Qin families.
Su Manjian, who was sitting silently, had a faint smile on his face, and Xuanguang Zhenren said, "Manjian, what is your opinion, might as well come and hear it?" ”
Su Manjian said calmly: "I don't think it's them, most of these shili are attached to the Yuan and Qin families, they have been in Yunze for too long, and they no longer have the courage and liliang to challenge the majesty of these two families." ”
Everyone nodded for a while, although it was only two short sentences, but it made perfect sense. Yun Zhanyu nodded silently, but there was no frustrated look on his face, but his eyes looked at the map below resolutely, "No matter who they are, they have such strength, so it is worthy of our attention, I hope they can survive in the secret realm!" ”
The old emperor sighed softly in a low voice. Over the years, it is not that there has been an emerging shili in Yunze, but it will always be suppressed by the joint efforts of the Yuan and Qin families in the big competition, and the Yuan Zitan of that year was a genius. Broke the balance of the entire Yunze shili, let the Yuan family rise, since then, the Yuan and Qin families have fought each other, and on the other hand, they have tacitly suppressed the emerging shili in Yunze, for more than a thousand years, even if it is an old Jishen sect such as the Evergreen Palace. can only be partial to Yunyang, and the rest are mostly dependent on the two families, and there is no shili who can challenge these two. Probably this is the tacit rule between them, right?
The emperor has been hidden in the deep palace all these years, looking at the changes in the world with cold eyes, and he is not as enthusiastic as the eldest son, he secretly sighed in his heart: Let's take a look!
The envoys of the Hidden Sword Villa also whispered, the array flag was hidden by them, and they naturally knew how dangerous the Rongtian Ridge was. In fact, they almost couldn't get out there, and they always felt that Rongtianling was buried with secrets that they didn't know, so if there were people other than the Yuan and Qin families. Being able to take the formation flag from Rongtianling is definitely one thing worth their attention.
Su Manjian looked at the senior brother and the senior uncle talking in a low voice, no one seemed to have thought of the girl who broke through the level alone, would these four women set off a storm in the ancient battlefield?
At this time, the emperor suddenly seemed to remember something, raised his head and said, "Which sect is the woman who broke into the city that day?" ”
He glanced back at his son, but Yun Zhanyu couldn't remember, Xuanguang Zhenren didn't think about it for a while, Su Manjian said in a low voice: "It's Bixia Sect." ”
Yun Zhanyu then remembered. He said in a low voice: "I remember, that woman's surname is Gu, I heard that she had a grudge against the Evergreen Palace, she was killed outside the city, and she disappeared for several days, and Cumulus Peak wanted to take the opportunity to annex them." It's just that she was forced by another monk and didn't succeed, but she didn't expect to come back on the day of Dabi. ”
The old emperor snorted and said, "You might as well keep an eye on these people and see what their results are." ”
Yun Zhanyu said in a low voice: "I originally thought that Bixia Sect had some use value, maybe it could create a gap between the Qin family and Cumulus Peak, but I didn't expect Qin Jing to be a decisive person, and he didn't take Qin Feng's thoughts into account, and supported Cumulus Peak without hesitation, Bixia Sect seems to be useless anymore." ”
The old emperor coughed, and said in a long voice: "Vision, you might as well take a long-term view." There are some things, until zuihou, probably no one can say the ending. He stood up, walked slowly towards the door, and said, "I'm going to meditate for a long time, and then I'll come back." ”
Yun Zhanyu looked back at his father's back, and felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, his father had been hidden in the deep palace all these years, not only had he lost his sharpness, but his eyes seemed to be more confused than before, and he was so concerned about these details, his eyes couldn't see the general trend at all, was he really old?
He tried to smile peacefully, but his fists were clenched tightly, and the original ambition in his heart seemed to be rapidly expanding. Myself, it seems that the time has come to do something.
In the ancient battlefield.
A Daze that stretches for hundreds of miles and is dozens of zhang wide, Yuan Zitan is standing quietly on a big stone, looking around casually. Not far away, the monks of the Yuan family had already used the formation method to completely trap more than a dozen monks, and then wantonly harvested their lives and snatched the formation flag from their hands.
Those monks rushed in the formation and fled in all directions, but they could not escape the fate of their lives. Under the leadership of Yuan Quan, the elites of the Yuan family surrounded them, blood splattered, and screams kept ringing out, making this area within a radius of several miles like a Shura field.
But Yuan Zitan looked at all this with a calm face, as if what was happening in front of him was just an ordinary thing. He looked at the opposite side of the river and said, "Qin Chong, that old guy, must be on the other side, they should be doing the same thing now." ”
He showed a sarcastic smile, "Killing and killing, it's just another time to eliminate the weak and keep the strong, it's really boring." He turned his head and asked the attendants beside him, and said, "Have you been staring at the Bixia Sect, where have they gone now?" ”
The black-clothed attendant standing beside him replied in a low voice: "After they came out of Rongtian Ridge, they kept heading east, looking at the direction, they should have gone to Zhechong Ridge. ”
Yuan Zitan showed a complicated smile, "They walked the Red Maple Forest and Rongtian Ridge, which is already a surprise, the next step, it should be a sweep, right?" This woman's steps. Don't you feel familiar? ”
The attendant stood respectfully and did not speak. Yuan Zitan said: "She is a difficult method before the easy, don't you think that it is very similar to our strategy and the Qin family's strategy?" This woman. The heart is very big! ”
He withdrew his gaze from the wide river and said, "Evergreen Palace and Cumulus Peak, they should be about to start." Don't meddle in this matter, just wait and see what happens. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to interfere, and if there is any movement, report it to me quickly. ”
Her gaze looked casually into the distance. said lightly: "I don't know, is this a surprise in this big competition?" ”
Just as Yuan Zitan had expected, on the other side of the river, Qin Zhong was also doing the same thing as him. They trapped a dozen monks here, drove them all into the formation, and then killed them one by one. Qin Feng held a long sword in his hand, and kept rushing through the crowd, and the blood soaked his clothes. The expression on his face was hideous, and he shouted loudly: "Kill, kill, kill!" Kill—"
Qin Chong frowned and said, "Go and call someone." Take him off! ”
The short attendant beside him answered in a low voice, flew into the formation, and with a few turns of his agile body, he avoided the forbidden attack in the formation, and then grabbed Qin Feng's collar and lifted him out.
Qin Chong looked at Qin Feng who was standing in front of him, the blood on his clothes was still dripping, and said in a deep voice: "As the young master of the next generation of the Qin family, are you willing to take risks like this, are you not dying?" ”
Qin Feng pressed his sword and fell to his knees. He buried his head deep in the ground, but he did not speak.
Qin Zhong sighed and said, "I received news from Cumulus Cloud Peak, they will set up an ambush in the Broken Cloud Cliff and lead them into an ambush. ”
Qin Feng's whole body was shocked, and he was about to get up. Qin Chong said sharply: "If you go now, you will not be counted as a descendant of the Qin family from now on!" ”
He sighed, his tone softened, and said, "I promised you that I would spare her life, and when the war is over, you can take my order again, let it go, or be willing to submit to the Qin family, I will listen to you." But now, you don't want to give me any trouble! ”
Qin Feng lowered his head deep into the ground and said, "Thank you for your mercy." ”
He stood up, looked back, and then rushed into the arena again, shouting loudly, sword in hand, and constantly reaping the lives of the monks in the field.
Qin Zhong turned his head, his gaze suddenly became cold, and he said to the short man in black beside him: "You leave for a few days, go to the Broken Cloud Cliff, and tell Duanmu Qing and the little girl surnamed Nan that if they don't kill the Bixia Sect, don't expect me to clean up the rest for them!" ”
He paused for a moment, and then said: "If it really doesn't work, you are waiting for an opportunity to make a move on the side, you must kill her, this person must not stay!" ”
The dwarf squire answered and took the order. Qin Zhong looked at Qin Feng's figure fighting in the distance, his eyes gradually became cloudy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Gu Yan naturally didn't know what was happening in the ancient battlefield or even in Yunyang City, and the four of them were very excited after leaving Rongtianling. Along the way, they slowly and leisurely went to Zhechong Ridge, and they already held six formation flags, and they could be said to be invincible in this big competition, which also made Bi Zhenzhen put down half of the big stone in his heart.
Halfway through, there were also monks who tried to rob and kill them, but they were all easily cooked, Zhu Ying and Lin Zitong also seized a magic weapon each, and when they were halfway there, the array flags in their hands had increased to nine. At least in Dongyang County, except for the original three shili, it is impossible for any sect to defeat them.
If it had been replaced by Bi Zhenzhen who had led the team before, he would have found a place to hide by now, as long as he was safe enough to get out of the ancient battlefield, it would be a complete victory. But this is far from satisfying Gu Yan's ambitions, in Zhichongling, she is ready to do a big job. It's just that these four people don't know that there is a danger that is slowly approaching......
The place of Broken Cloud Cliff is not marked on the map issued to the monks, and only those who participated in the last big competition will know about this place where the corpses of countless monks are buried.
In the Great Contest a thousand years ago, a big melee in Zuihou took place in the Broken Cloud Cliff, and at least more than 200 monks died there, making it a real place of death, so in this Great Competition, the people of the Tibetan Sword Villa did not plant a formation flag here, and no one would run here with nothing to do. When Gu Yan and the others passed over the Broken Cloud Cliff, they saw an incomparably desolate mountain range below. A mountain sticks out diagonally as if it had been cut in half. Countless desolate weeds grew on it, and a dead silence came to the face.
On the other side of the hill, there was a mountain that seemed to have been cut in half, and the two responded to each other. It's like a pair of narrow portals, with big mouths open to devour everyone who comes by.
It was the first time for Zhu Ying to see such a sinister place, and she covered her mouth in surprise and said, "This place is so scary! ”
The speed of the Jinyun Saucer was not fast, and they could clearly see the scene below. The barren grass was more than a man tall, and its roots stood upright towards the sky, and two half-crescent-shaped mountains surrounded inward. It's like a half-open blood basin mouth about to eat people. A vicious aura came to his face.
Bi Zhenzhen pointed below and said: "This place is called Broken Cloud Cliff, it was not so dangerous, but thousands of years ago, there was a big melee here, hundreds of monks died because of it, it is said that blood once stained the entire ground, and it was in that war that the Yuan family was able to rise." And in the following thousand years, it expanded rapidly and became a big family on a par with the Qin family. ”
"That's right." Gu Yan heard these things. Unconsciously touched in her heart, it seems that this place gave her some different feelings, her purpose is to let the Bixia Sect overpower the Yuan and Qin families, and now she has come to this place that witnessed the rise of the Yuan family and Yuan Zitan thousands of years ago, is it a coincidence in the dark?
She looked at the valley below, and always felt that there was an indescribable aura in it, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable. After thinking about it, he said, "Let's get out of the way, don't go from here!" ”
Lin Zitong, who was standing at the end of the Jinyun disc, said: "If you take a detour." Then it will take an extra day to get to the Demolition Chongling. ”
Gu Yan nodded, "I always feel that there is some danger here, it seems that we shouldn't stay too much, anyway, we are not in a hurry, let's take a detour!" ”
Bi Zhenzhen has been through the battle of Rongtianling since then. became more cautious and would not oppose Gu Yan's opinion, so Lin Zitong, who was standing at the tail end to control the direction, turned around and flew towards the southeast, first making a big bend, and then returning to the northwest to Zhichongling.
At this time, under the Broken Cloud Cliff, there were more than a dozen people standing quietly, and the two women led by them were Nan Xianzi and Duanmu Qing. Duanmu Qing was still wearing her cyan coat, and the two of them, standing under a protruding cliff, raised their heads to look, just in time to see a white light flying away overhead.
Duanmu Qing said: "Nan Fairy, they don't seem to have entered our ambush, you started to want to lure the enemy in this place, are you wrong?" ”
Fairy Nan said coldly: "It's not that I have to lure the enemy in this place, but only here can I really trap her!" She said quickly, "Since you have decided to deal with this woman, you must be extremely vigilant against her, she is extremely good at formations, and she is very good at the technique of 'forming according to the place', and ordinary formations and ambushes will not trap her." If she is allowed to escape, even if she kills the other three women, what is the point? ”
There was a cold look in her eyes, "Only in the Broken Cloud Cliff can we completely trap her, so no matter what, we must lead her in!" ”
Duanmu Qing said: "They are far away from here, what can you do?" ”
Nan Fairy said lightly: "I have already laid out a posterior move, I'm not afraid that she won't come in!" With a wave of her hand, two female disciples stepped forward behind her, and she waved her hand and said, "Go and do what you want!" And they withdrew.
Jinyun Disc turned to the southeast, getting farther and farther away from the Broken Cloud Cliff, and the warblers breathed a sigh of relief, patted their chests and said: "That place looks really gloomy, as if it wants to eat people, which makes people involuntarily depressed in their hearts. ”
Bi Zhenzhen said angrily: "That's because the yin qi in the ground is too heavy, I told you to cultivate the internal qi well, you just take it as a deaf ear, and now you are suffering, right?" ”
Although Zhu Ying spoke a lot, she was very in awe of Bi Zhenzhen, and respectfully received the lesson silently.
Gu Yan smiled and said: "You two, you should both have benefits this time, when you return to Danxia Mountain, give me a good haode retreat, I still have pills for you to use, retreat for ten years and eight years, and it is not impossible for each to advance to the first order." ”
The two girls suddenly looked happy, they are both monks, who doesn't want to be promoted quickly and well? It's just that they don't have the same opportunity as Gu Yan. It is already a great blessing to be able to advance to the next level in ten years.
Gu Yan said again: "If you advance to the late stage of foundation building, I will pick up the haode magic weapon and give it to each of you at that time." The two women suddenly became ecstatic and looked at each other. I couldn't hide my joyful look.
Gu Yan glanced at them sideways and said with a smile: "It depends on the performance this time!" ”
While they were laughing and talking, two figures suddenly flew diagonally in the distance, and if they looked closely, it seemed that they were three people, one in front of the other and two behind, chasing each other. A turquoise light fled quickly in front of him, panicking, Bi Zhenzhen exclaimed: "Is it the water blue of the Light Moon Gate?" ”
Everyone saw it at this time, and the woman in blue who escaped in front of her was covered with blood, her expression was panicked, and she saw the four girls standing on the Jinyun disc from a distance, and her face suddenly showed joy. shouted: "Sister Bi save me!" "Rushing in this direction.
Gu Yan asked Lin Zitong to control the Jinyun Disc to step forward, and asked, "Is it an old man?" ”
Bi Zhenzhen said: "When I was not married, I traveled to Yunze. I once met with her in the north, sat and discussed, had a very good relationship, and once broke through the secret realm together, but then I had the opportunity to get the Dan and succeeded, but she failed to get the Dan for the first time, and went to retreat and cultivate, this time it must be to follow the master to find the opportunity to get the Dan. ”
Gu Yan nodded, and saw that Shui Yanglan's body had a deep aura. Obviously, staying in the late stage of foundation building for a long time, there is only one chance left to get married. It's just that at this time, he was chased by the people behind him very embarrassed, and even the sideburns on his head were extremely scattered. There are also two women chasing behind, and her cultivation is similar to her, and with two against one, she is naturally not an opponent.
Shui Yanglan flew quickly towards this side. As soon as Bi Zhenzhen raised his hand, a white light curtain descended from the sky, falling right behind her, separating her from the two people behind her at the same time, and said loudly: "Who is chasing behind?" ”
When the two women saw that there were two Jiedan monks coming forward, they didn't dare to chase forward anymore, and stopped in place, but they were still very arrogant and said, "The Evergreen Palace is chasing the enemy, I don't know which fairy is in front of you?" ”
Gu Yan said lightly: "Are you trying to snatch the array flag in her hand?" I stopped this matter, if there is anything, let your palace master come to talk to me! She waved her hand, and a huge pressure came out of her body, and a murderous aura suddenly permeated all around, making everyone feel awe-inspired.
Although the two women were not angry with Gu Yan's tone, after all, their cultivation was one level lower, and they didn't dare to be presumptuous, and said, "Please leave your name from your seniors!" ”
Gu Yan said coldly: "Bixia Sect Gu Yan, go!" She waved her hand, and a strong force sent forward, and the two of them involuntarily flew out towards the back, and as soon as they turned their heads, they flew in the opposite direction.
Shui Yanglan stepped forward to meet Bi Zhenzhen at this time, and greeted Gu Yan again, and couldn't stop praising him: "I have long heard that Sister Bi's sect is one and the two sects are one, and there is a young woman who is powerful in the southeast, and I only saw it today, and it is really extraordinary......
As soon as she was halfway through her words, her voice suddenly became a pause, and the next half of the sentence seemed to be blocked in her throat and couldn't come out, her face turned crimson, and her body fell back softly.
Bi Zhenzhen was startled, quickly held her up, and shouted, "What did you do?" ”
A long voice came from afar, "She was hit by our Three Evil Yin Divine Mist, and after she didn't live for three days, you wait to collect her body!" "The two women were so fast that there were only two white dots left in the sky.
Gu Yan said angrily: "Bold! As soon as she stepped on her feet, Jinyun Disk chased after her like electricity, the speed was extremely fast, and she caught up with these two people in less than a hundred miles, and then her eyes were dark, and she found that she had unconsciously chased in front of the Broken Cloud Cliff.
The figures of the two women flashed in the air, as if there was a layer of prohibition below that shrouded them, and as soon as Gu Yan raised his hand, a golden light and thunder fire rolled down, blowing the shield below to pieces.
At this time, Bi Zhenzhen, who was standing behind her, suddenly heard Shui Yanglan in her arms whisper: "I'm sorry, Sister Bi!" ”
She was still stunned, thinking that she was talking nonsense, but she saw a slight movement of one of Shui Yanglan's hands hidden under her sleeve, and suddenly felt that the sky was spinning, and there was no root under her feet, and she fell off the Jinyun Disk all of a sudden! (To be continued)
