Chapter 13: The Demon Venerable Outside the Netherworld
"Big brother, if what you said is true, you should be in Netherworld next. ”
"Well, I guess you can't be wrong. ”
As soon as I stepped out, my vision suddenly became clear.
"It's here, big brother. Nangong Ren raised a hand to cover his forehead slightly and looked into the distance.
A huge city came into view of the two.
The city wall facing the two is about 100 zhang long and about 70 zhang high, and there are seven red lacquer gates, the middle gate is about two zhang high, and the other six city gates are slightly shorter, and the halves are distributed on both sides of the middle city gate.
Standing in front of this majestic city, Nangong Ren spoke: "In front of this city, there is always a feeling of being smaller than heaven and earth. Big brother, this is the third time we've been here. ”
Feng Tiance nodded slowly, "Yes, the last time I came here was six years ago. ”
"Time flies so fast, people can't help but feel a little trance. Nangong Ren sighed.
At this moment, there were no pedestrians on the wide road, and the seven city gates were tightly closed.
Nangong Ren shook his hand, and a folding fan with a landscape painting appeared in his hand.
With a "snap", the folding fan was opened, and Nangong Ren fanned himself up, his eyes locked on the largest city gate from afar.
After staring at it for a while, Nangong Ren suddenly laughed loudly and said, "Hey, remove this blinding spell, if you have time to spend this effort, what can you do?" ”
The surrounding space, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, ripples, and a purple-haired man instantly appeared on the road that was empty just now.
The purple-haired man has an outstanding appearance and a tall figure, but he has a bookish spirit, and he also holds a folding fan in his hand, smiling slightly, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
"I've seen Brother Feng. The handsome purple-haired man saluted.
Feng Tiance nodded slightly in response.
"Hey, hey, what do you mean? Youhong, you didn't see me like this, why didn't you greet me?" Nangong Ren shouted dissatisfiedly.
The handsome purple-haired man named Youhong smiled slightly and said, "It's been a long time, Brother Nangong." ”
Nangong Ren folded the fan, hugged his fists and said, "Long time no see, don't come unharmed." ”
Feng Tiance looked at Youhong and said, "You will guard this pass?"
Youhong was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Brother Feng said that he laughed, there is nothing to guard here, I am just waiting for the two of you here." ”
"You're not hospitality, well, look behind you," Nangong Ren said, heading towards the city gate, "The gates of Netherworld are tightly closed, and there is no one on this road, let alone any cheerleaders welcoming us." And, if I think I'm right, there are quite a few 'Nether Guards' behind the walls. Are you going to welcome us, or are you going to take us all in?"
"Brother Nangong is too worried," Youhong smiled and clenched his fists, "The 'Netherworld Guard' inside the city gate is just guarding the city as always. Moreover, it was my father's arrangement that we close the city gates, and he is just so as not to disturb the normal life of the city residents. And I'm here, and I'm really waiting for you to come, but I ask you to wait here for a while, and my father will come over at once. ”
"Demon Venerable, what is he doing here?" Nangong Ren glared, "I said, didn't you say that the competition of the younger generation is good? As long as we win, we can take away Youwu and them, is it true that the Demon Venerable wants to come here to bully the juniors?"
"If you want, I can accompany you slippery boy for a trick and a half, just don't splash and roll around with me if you lose. A deep voice came from afar.
The three of them looked at the sky, and a purple-haired old man slowly stepped into the air like a lake enjoying the scenery.
"Father. Youhong bowed and saluted.
"I've seen Youhe seniors. Feng Tiance also bowed.
Nangong Ren was stunned when he saw it, and then saluted with the wind and said, "I've seen the Demon Venerable." ”
The one who stepped into the sky was none other than the Supreme of the Demon Realm, Youhe!
Youhe slowly landed on the ground and said with a smile: "No need to be polite." ”
At the moment when Youhe landed, the white phoenix the size of a pigeon on Feng Tiance's shoulders no longer closed his eyes to recuperate, but opened his eyes and looked straight at Youhe.
"Senior," Feng Tiance said first, "We are here to take away the Youwu family. ”
"Oh?" Youhe said slowly, "According to the previous agreement between our father and son, Youwu should be back now." ”
"Youhe senior, when we came, Youlie said at the door that as long as we win all the people guarding the pass, we can take away Youwu them, and there is one of your promises, no one will stop you!" Nangong Ren interjected, "When you say this, you don't want to go back on your word and don't believe it." ”
Youhe looked at Nangong Ren and said: "Yes, I promised that as long as you win, you can take it away, but in this last level, the opponent you have to face is me." ”
Nangong Ren's eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed, "What?"
Feng Tiance's expression did not change in the slightest.
"Why? Don't you dare? Didn't you say that this is not like words? Youhe smiled and looked at Nangong Ren.
Nangong Rengang wanted to speak, but Feng Tiance gently patted him on the shoulder with one hand, and said lightly: "I'll come." ”
"Big brother, let's do it with me. Nangong Ren Zhengse said.
"Don't be humble, it's just a little more difficult for you, don't worry, I'll get to the point. Youhe explained.
"You can press the formation on the side. Feng Tiance said.
Nangong Ren nodded and took a step back.
"This is the gate of the Netherworld, it is not suitable for fighting, come with me. With that, the river stepped away.
"You're waiting here. Feng Tiance said, and also stepped into the air step by step, going to chase the Youhe.
Flying high into the air, Youhe waved his hand lightly, and there were ripples around it, forming a huge circular space, enveloping Feng Tiance together.
Feng Tiance stopped flying, and the white phoenix on his shoulder suddenly flew into the air, rotating around Feng Tiance a few times, and with a loud phoenix chirp, it turned into a white light and flew towards Feng Tiance.
Feng Tiance stretched out his hand, pulled out a three-foot long sword from the white light, and slowly pointed at the Demon Venerable Youhe.
The sword body trembled slightly, and there was a burst of phoenix roars.
Youhe looked at the long sword in Feng Tiance's hand, and said in a deep voice: "Good sword!"
Feng Tiance didn't respond, but just said to Youhe: "I don't know how the seniors want to compete?"
Youhe smiled: "It's just a simple discussion, don't be nervous." I set up this barrier, so I don't have to worry about affecting the surrounding area, so let's get started when you're ready. ”
Feng Tiance nodded, pointed a sword at Youhe's chest, and stabbed it.
The wind around them suddenly blew their long hair.
Feng Tiance seemed to have less time in the blink of an eye, and he was already about to stab the Youhe.
Youhe watched Feng Tiance stab with a sword at first, but he didn't make any moves, just smiled faintly, and only raised his palm when the tip of the sword was about to stab his chest.
The moment Youhe raised his palm, the air in the enchantment seemed to become viscous, and time passed very slowly.
The route that the tip of the sword was going to pass, Youhe's palm blocked its way, but at ten centimeters from Youhe's palm, a black vortex quickly formed, and the long sword in Feng Tiance's hand stabbed straight in.
The long sword pierced into the black vortex by nearly an inch, but on the other side, the tip of the sword did not penetrate the vortex and stabbed into the palm of Youhe as expected.
Feng Tiance frowned, his whole body was full of momentum, and he strengthened his hands.
A phoenix roar sounded, and a dazzling white light flashed around Feng Tiance and the long sword, and on the other side of the black vortex, a sword tip slowly pierced out.
At first, Youhe kept smiling, but when he saw the tip of the sword piercing out of the whirlpool, he put away his smile, the black light in his palm shone brightly, and the tip of the sword that had been advancing also stopped, no longer advancing at all.
In this way, the two of them held on for less than ten seconds, and Youhe opened his mouth and smiled: "It's okay, let's stop here." ”
Feng Tiance put away his sword, Youhe put away his palm, and the black vortex in the palm of his hand slowly dissipated.
The white light flashed in the palm of his hand, and a snow-white scabbard appeared, Feng Tiance put the long sword that Bai Feng turned into into the scabbard, looked up at Youhe, and wondered: "What do you mean by senior?"
"One move is enough, didn't I say it, point to point. Youhe laughed.
Feng Tiance pondered for a moment, and then said, "What about Youwu, can I take it with me?"
Youhe said heartily: "As long as he is willing, you will leave the Demon Realm together, and I will not stop you." ”
Feng Tiance bowed again and saluted, "Thank you, senior." ”
"Hey, don't thank me yet," Youhe raised his hand and said, "If Youwu is willing to go with you, it's not too late to thank you." But then again, if you weren't for Youwu's sworn brothers, and didn't care about the armistice agreement, I would have killed you all with a wave of my hand, but this time the situation is special, and a few of you young people have a lot of courage, and only six people dare to come to my demon realm?"
Feng Tiance didn't know how to answer, and didn't speak.
Youhe smiled and said to himself: "I used to have a group of good brothers like this, but unfortunately, almost died in the last war. ”
Saying that, Feng Tiance saw a rare look of remembrance in the eyes of this Demon Venerable.
