Chapter 34: Duan Yunzhou
"Enough!"
Just as everyone was trying their best to build defensive shields and prepare for the impending explosion wave, a clear cheer suddenly rang out, and then the fairies saw a huge bronze bell large enough to cover the sky and the sun fall from the dark night sky, enveloping the flaming grimace and the thundering tiger in it.
Boom Boom!
A dull thunderous sound sounded in the huge bronze bell, and the earth shook violently like an earthquake, and the intricate inscriptions on the bronze bell glowed, constantly dissolving the energy waves that exploded inside.
Everyone looked at the bronze bell in horror, and the shield was still firmly in front of them, for fear that the bronze bell would not be able to withstand the energy of the explosion.
But they quickly breathed a sigh of relief, and the bronze bell remained motionless until the sweep of internal energy completely disappeared, without the slightest crack.
"Hold on!" cheers came from the mouths of the people, and everyone began to wipe the sweat from their faces.
The sudden bronze bell easily defused the attack of the two, Lu Ling frowned, the scarlet in his eyes gradually dissipated, and the spoilers that followed on his body made his eyes dark, and he finally stabilized his body that was about to fall.
Xiao Qi was also shocked in his heart, he naturally recognized the bronze bell in front of him, but he was already hateful and unwilling to give up the opportunity to kill Lu Ling, so as soon as he gritted his teeth, the thunder bow in his hand began to condense energy again, and another strange beast roar came out leisurely with the sound of thunder.
The fluctuation of this arrow is no weaker than the Tiger Devouring Arrow just now!
Lu Ling's face became extremely ugly, the Ghost Face of the Underworld that he had released just now had almost exhausted all of his strength, and if he did it again, he would definitely not be able to resist it again.
But at this moment, a shadow beside Lu Ling suddenly shook, and then under everyone's shocked expressions, a man in black slowly stepped out of the shadows.
This person has a slender figure, black hair is scattered, and the facial features on his fair face reveal a look of contempt and majesty. He looked at Xiao Qi coldly: "Is there enough trouble?"
As he spoke, the darkness seemed to envelop Xiao Qi, and the cold breath made the latter sweat profusely, he hurriedly gathered the thunder and lightning energy gathered in his hand, and knelt on one knee, his facial features that were originally distorted by anger now became quite respectful.
When the man appeared, the crowd began to let out one exclamation after another, and Lu Ling also heard their discussions, and the eyes that looked at the man became more and more surprised and vigilant.
Because the man in black in front of him was the commander of the palace guards, Duan Yunzhou.
Duan Yunzhou beckoned, and the huge bronze bell that stood in the middle of the road like a hill began to rotate rapidly, and in the flickering light, it actually changed to the size of an egg, and flew into Duan Yunzhou's hand, and then, he set his eyes on Lu Ling.
Lu Ling's footsteps unconsciously took a step back, and the demonic qi and flames in his hands were quietly running. He could feel that the fluctuations on this man's body were a few points stronger than those of Jiu Ye and Fang Hai, and it was very likely that he had surpassed the level of the Initial Opening Realm, and among the younger generations he had seen during this time, this person's strength was probably only below Xue Qingfeng.
Since he was the commander of the Praetorian Guard, it was very likely that he was on Xiao Qi's side, so Lu Ling was full of vigilance, ready to do his best to escape from this place when Duan Yunzhou attacked him.
However, there was no hostility on Duan Yunzhou's face, he did not rush to Lu Ling, but said softly: "This friend, Duan Yunzhou, the commander of the Lower Praetorian Guard, Xiao Qi acted recklessly on the spur of the moment, and he will definitely be punished after today, can the grievances between the two of you be stopped?"
Lu Ling was silent, this Yunzhou obviously didn't want to make a big deal about it, so he gave him a step, if he refused to speak at this time and angered Duan Yunzhou, the latter's strong strength, in the end, it would only be Lu Ling himself who would be unlucky.
So he nodded: "This matter is because of Xiao Qi, if he is willing to apologize, I can ignore it." ”
Wow!
The surrounding crowd suddenly felt numb when they heard Lu Ling's words, this kid is afraid that he is not crazy! General Duan Yunzhou personally went out to give him a way to live, but he didn't expect that not only did he not appreciate it, but also asked Xiao Qi to take the initiative to apologize?
Duan Yunzhou's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't speak, but glanced at Xiao Qi with his head tilted. The latter gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Bastard, you want me to apologize, dream!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he felt as if he was in a deep quagmire, and the shadows that lingered around him became extremely heavy, crushing his bones to "creak". When he raised his head with difficulty, he only saw Duan Yunzhou's somewhat unhappy expression.
The severe pain spreading in his body didn't allow Xiao Qi to think more, so he had to lower his head, his face flushed, and a hoarse voice came out from between his teeth word by word: "I'm very sorry, I will never trouble Your Excellency again......"
Under the oppression of death, even he had to give in.
Duan Yunzhou nodded with satisfaction, and then threw out a streamer, Lu Ling took it in his hand and looked at it, and found that it was a small white porcelain bottle.
"Let's take this bottle of healing medicine as an apology. Duan Yunzhou lowered his eyes slightly and said, Lu Ling was a little surprised at first, but quickly grinned and clenched his fists and said, "General Duan is really reasonable!
After saying that, he stopped staying and turned away.
"It's fast. Duan Yunzhou chuckled, he could naturally see that Lu Ling was jealous of him, so he didn't stop him, but let Lu Ling leave.
Then his gaze became majestic again, he glanced around, and said coldly: "Have you seen enough of watching the play?
The onlookers were silent, and after they hugged their fists at Duan Yunzhou, they hurriedly shrunk their necks and left quickly.
After everyone left, Duan Yunzhou looked down at Xiao Qi, who was kneeling on one knee, the latter's face was still blue and red, and his eyes were suppressed with anger.
"And complaints?" he asked.
"The subordinates don't dare!" Xiao Qi gritted his teeth and said, but anyone could hear that his heart was different at this time.
Duan Yunzhou smiled, and did not say anything to reproach, but said: "This matter is indeed your inconsiderateness, many elders in the palace are paying attention to this side tonight, even if I don't make a move, there will be other elders who will come forward to stop it, and at that time, I am afraid that you will inevitably be punished." ”
Xiao Qi's scalp exploded when he heard this, he quietly looked around, sweat sliding down his forehead, for fear that there were elders snooping around. He himself understands that today's incident was caused by him, and he will not be reasonable at all if he is investigated from above.
And Duan Yunzhou must have appeared before the elders in order to protect him, so he lowered his voice, bowed his head gratefully, and said, "Thank you, Commander." ”
Duan Yunzhou tapped his chin and said indifferently: "In short, you have to remember not to provoke that young man named Lu Ling." ”
"Why? Is it because he is behind the White Dragon Holy Knight?" Xiao Qi asked unwillingly, he couldn't understand what kind of status that kid had to be able to get the attention and protection of the Holy Knights.
"Heh, it's not just the White Dragon Holy Horseman, the eyes of many big people in the palace are focused on this person at this moment. Duan Yunzhou said, "And you should have noticed that he is not an immortal spirit but a demon spirit, a demon spirit can enter and exit at will in the immortal royal family, and it can also attract a lot of attention, don't you understand the reason?"
"......" Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, thoughts flashed in his mind, he seemed to understand something, and suddenly widened his eyes and gasped, like a fish out of water.
"He, he's ...... Source ......"
Duan Yunzhou put a finger in front of his mouth, Xiao Qi hurriedly closed his mouth, but the horror in his eyes did not decrease but increased, and he even had a little fear.
Oh my God, if he really killed Lu Ling by mistake, even ten lives would not be enough to repay this sin!
Seeing this, Duan Yunzhou didn't say anything, as soon as he waved his robe, his body dived into the shadows like a ghost, leaving only Xiao Qi in fear.
......
Lu Ling dragged his scarred body back to the hut on the back mountain, although the wounds on his body on the way had begun to emit a trace of demonic energy, but the corrosive flesh-like pain brought by repairing the wounds made him even more miserable.
So as soon as he returned to his residence, the tortured Lu Ling immediately lay down on the bed, he originally expected to use the healing medicine given to him by Duan Yunzhou to relieve the injuries in his body, but after the pill was swallowed up, the warm medicinal effect emitted was swallowed up by the demonic qi in an instant, presumably these medicines were made with the Holy Healing Technique, and the power used was the immortal yuan that the demonic qi was most repulsive.
So Lu Ling, who was extremely depressed, finally saw a dark eye, and fell asleep like this.
When Lu Ling woke up, the sun was already shining outside the window.
He sat up weakly, and when he took off his blood-stained clothes, he found that the wounds on his body had formed thick blood scabs, some of which had fallen off, revealing intact skin.
So Lu Ling's face showed a happy smile, although the pain was extremely unbearable, but I have to say that the healing ability of the demonic qi was indeed very good.
It's just that demonic qi can only repair wounds on the body, and Lu Ling's body has also been turned upside down by the thunder element, so he can only use demonic qi and fire elements to nourish his meridians and flesh that have been extremely damaged.
If it weren't for the previous quenching of the cultivation element, I am afraid that the meridians on my body would be directly scorched black by Xiao Qi's thunder and lightning.
However, this was the first time he had a real life-and-death battle with someone, although if it wasn't for Duan Yunzhou's sudden appearance, he would definitely not be Xiao Qi's opponent, but after this battle, he still gained a lot.
For example, the Demon Flame he used to cast the Ghost Face of the Underworld was the biggest gain.
As early as when he was cultivating the elements before, Lu Ling had found that the Source Demon Array and the Fire Elemental Pill that were located in the Qi Palace at the same time would sometimes come into contact, and when the Demon Qi and the Fire Elemental met each other, they would generally cancel each other out and devour each other, and it was often difficult to coexist harmoniously.
But over time, he suddenly found that the two faintly began to merge with each other, and if the demonic qi and the fire element were fused in a certain proportion, a dark red flame would be born, and this flame contained the fluctuation of demonic qi, although it was not as strong as pure demonic qi, but it was far more powerful than the pure fire element.
So Lu Ling called it Demon Flame.
Yesterday, Lu Ling mixed a large amount of demonic qi and fire elements into a demonic flame, and the power of the Underworld Ghost Face was almost a full fifty percent more than before.
Lu Ling couldn't wait to find out how much Demon Yan could increase the power of other spells, but before that, he had to replenish the consumed demonic energy and fire elementals.
Demonic Qi only needs to be activated to quickly replenish the Source Demon Array, while the Fire Elemental needs to use some additional means.
So he took out the scroll he had borrowed from Wen Hai Pavilion yesterday from Chu Jing, and the look on his face became more and more expectant.
Let me take a look at the power of this "fire storage technique".
