Chapter 128: Passing by the Night Ghost City
After Duan Feng left the imperial capital, he went straight to Phoenix, this time to the borderless land, he knew that there was a lot of bad luck, he hoped that before leaving, he would take another look at Liu Yuwei.
At this time, the imperial capital had been occupied by the rebels, but fortunately, Duan Tiande did not massacre the people as before, which saved millions of people in the imperial capital.
In less than two hours, Duan Feng and the three of them flew over a city, unlike other cities, this city was built on the mountainside, and it was surrounded by rebel demons, even so, the whole city was still intact, and the rebels were also stationed thirty miles away from the city, and there was no movement for a long time.
It stands to reason that the entire Dongli Kingdom is now basically occupied by the rebels, and only the imperial tomb is still in the hands of the official army, and such a small city can still withstand the attack of the rebels.
Duan Feng admired the courage and ability of the defenders of the city infinitely, and at the same time wondered who was still struggling to support the siege.
In order to dispel the doubts in their hearts, Duan Feng and the others landed in the city and wanted to find out.
But when the three of them were just about to land, and there were still hundreds of feet high, suddenly countless blue-white lightning flashed in the air, forming a dazzling power grid under the feet of the three people.
Duan Feng and the three of them quickly flew away and jumped back onto the clouds.
"What kind of formation is this? It's so powerful? No wonder the rebels can't attack it, it seems that there are high-ranking people in the city to defend it. ”
"What then?"
"Forget it, since people don't want us to go in, let's not be bored, what's more, having this kind of master guarding it can be regarded as the luck of the people in the city. Duan Feng sighed and said, "Hey, it's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to meet the master, forget it, let's go!"
With that, the three of them prepared to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept in, Duan Feng felt that there was a force behind him that was attracting him, and he wanted to break free, but the force was too great, and the three of them were powerless in front of this suction.
Duan Feng turned around and saw that this strong wind was coming from a whirlpool in the distance, and at the end of the whirlpool was a black patch.
The three men clung to each other's hands so as not to be blown away by the wind, and they spun and drifted rapidly in the whirlpool.
"Squirt!"
Duan Feng only felt that it was dark in front of him, and then the three of them appeared in a bright hall, with more than a dozen heavily armed generals standing on both sides, and in the center of the hall was an old man dressed as a Taoist.
"What kind of place is this?" Duan Feng rolled over and stood up from the ground, holding the Ice Sword and looking around vigilantly.
"Don't be afraid, this is the Night Ghost City, and the old man is the guard of the Night Ghost City. The old man in the temple said, and then stepped down from his chair.
"Night Ghost City?" Duan Feng thought for a while, and suddenly shouted, "You are the legendary Three Demonstrator Liu Yunchuan!"
"Well, it's the old man. The old man stroked his gray beard, the dust in his hand hit his arm, and walked to Duan Feng's side.
"Junior Duan Feng, I offended a lot just now, and I ask my seniors to forgive me. Duan Feng and the three of them hurriedly saluted.
"Hahaha!" Liu Yunchuan laughed a few times and said: "Those who don't know are not guilty, not to mention, there are not many people who can still insist on fighting against the Demon Venerable now, and you are also one of them, since this is the case, we are allies." ”
"The seniors are serious, and we are just doing our part, as for whether we can help, it's hard to say. Duan Feng felt ashamed in his heart.
"With your current ability, I'm afraid it will be difficult to complete the task, even if you can find the peak of Xihe, I'm afraid you won't be able to bring it back. ”
"Do you know the purpose of our trip?" Duan Feng said in surprise.
Liu Yunchuan looked at Duan Feng and smiled slightly, "That's natural, this little thing, the old man can still figure it out, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten you here." ”
"I don't know, what advice did the seniors give us here?"
Liu Yunchuan walked around behind Duan Feng, and while he was not paying attention, he grabbed his shoulders, and slowly exerted force with both hands, Duan Feng only felt two hot currents extending from his shoulders to his whole body.
The heat became more and more intense, and gradually his body seemed to be burning with a flame, and he wanted to break free, but his body couldn't move at all, and he couldn't make even a trace of sound in his throat.
Han Qing next to him only saw that Duan Feng's face turned red, and bursts of sweat appeared on his head, but there was no other change, he thought that Liu Yunchuan was testing Duan Feng's skills, so he didn't take it to heart.
Duan Feng was suddenly a little panicked in his heart, and he was a little anxious, he didn't understand Liu Yunchuan's purpose, and he was anxious that Han Qing didn't react.
In less than a cup of tea, Duan Feng suddenly felt that the hot air flow in his body had disappeared, and his whole body was as relaxed and comfortable as if he had just had a massage.
Liu Yunchuan withdrew his internal strength, took a deep breath, wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead, and said with a slight smile: "How do you feel?"
Duan Feng moved his muscles and bones, and tried to urge the aura in his body, only to feel that the aura in his body was more pure and powerful than before, and it was easier to urge, "It's much better! I feel that the aura in my body has increased several times, and it doesn't take any effort to urge it." ”
In the past, every time he urged the aura, Duan Feng had to spend a lot of energy, and the aura didn't last long, and when he encountered a strong opponent, within twenty rounds, he would be defeated because of the lack of spiritual power.
"That's it, it's just that it's not that the aura in your body has increased, it's that your qi veins have become smoother. ”
"I don't understand, my qi has always been smooth. ”
"On the contrary, your qi veins have actually been blocked by a powerful force, but this force is like a filter, not completely blocking your qi veins, but only allowing a small part of the aura to pass through. ”
"Your words have made me more and more confused. ”
"Actually, it's very simple, that is, someone deliberately injected an invisible force into your qi veins, slowly weakening your spiritual power, although you have a very strong aura in your body, but once these aura swims in the qi veins, they will be diluted by this force, or even absorbed, which causes you to often feel the reason for the lack of spiritual power. ”
"Deliberately?"
"Yes, deliberately, and, for a long time. ”
"But what is his purpose in doing this?"
"The purpose is simple, this power can transfer a part of the aura in your body to its owner, that is, the stronger your aura, the stronger the aura that person obtains. ”
"Use me to boost his aura!"
"Yes. ”
"But who could it be?"
A few pictures appeared in Duan Feng's mind, over the years, there were only two people who had come into contact with his qi veins, Tianwen helped him divide the power in his original body into four parts, that was once, but Tianwen was dead, that was him, it must be him.
"No wonder he let me escape, with his strength, I couldn't have escaped from there, it seems that he let me out on purpose. Duan Feng thought to himself.
"So what's going on now? Can that power be cleared?"
Liu Yunchuan shook his head helplessly, "With my current ability, I'm afraid it won't work, I just tried to force it into the edge of your qi vein, although it will still affect your aura, but it's much better than before." ”
Liu Yunchuan said, taking out a small box from his arms, which contained a small golden pill, "This is the Ten Thousand Saints Pill, if you take it, he can ensure that your qi veins are unblocked, but he can't remove that power, this matter can only be said when there is a chance in the future." ”
Duan Feng took the Ten Thousand Saints Pill, although it was a lap smaller than the Hundred Flowers Pill, but the weight was much heavier than it, like an iron egg.
Although he had doubts in his heart, he still took it, and the Ten Thousand Saints Pill slowly melted in his body, absorbed, and soaked into his blood, gradually turning into a stream of air that slowly swam in the qi veins.
"That's all I can do to help you, and the rest of the way is up to you. Liu Yunchuan said with emotion.
"Thank you to the seniors, the younger generations will do their best to regain Xihe's Ding. ”
Liu Yunchuan waved his hand slightly, with a relaxed smile on his face, and said, "Actually, you don't have to be so pessimistic, the borderlands are not as terrible as you think. ”
"What? Could it be that my predecessors have been there?"
Liu Yunchuan shook his head slightly, then smiled again, and did not answer Duan Feng's question.
When Duan Feng saw it, he knew that he would not get an answer, so he could only take Han Qing and Su Yanjun and leave the Night Ghost City.
The rebels outside the city still did not move, as if their mission was to besiege them, and these rebels had been stationed here for half a year, and for half a year, they had not even attacked once.
"The leader of the rebels below is Liu Nanchun. Han Qing said.
"Really?" Duan Feng looked down curiously, the number of rebels was about 100,000, and they were displayed outside the Night Ghost City in three layers.
"Liu Nanchun has always been brave in battle, acting vigorously and resolutely, and has not attacked for a long time, which is not like his style. Duan Feng muttered to himself.
"If you can't take the Night Ghost City, the entire west will not be truly peaceful, this is located at the junction of Nanhai County and Yunshang County, the west is adjacent to the Holy Spirit Mountains, and the east is bordered by Tianxing County, the geographical location is very important, control the Night Ghost City, you can radiate the entire west. ”
"In that case, why is Liu Nanchun still reluctant to attack the city?" Duan Feng wondered, "Isn't this the ability to take the entire western border in one fell swoop?"
"I'm afraid things aren't what you think. Su Yanjun said.
"Is there something else hidden here?"
Su Yanjun smiled slightly, "Liu Nanchun has his own plans, the current rebels seem to be monolithic, but in fact, they are also full of internal contradictions, each with its own little abacus. As long as we find a small crack in it, we can capsize the big ship of the rebels in an instant. ”
Duan Feng looked at Su Yanjun thoughtfully, and silently calculated in his heart, "The human race, the beast race, the demon race, the elves, the few races that couldn't fight with each other or even had a deep blood feud got together, it really couldn't be monolithic, as long as a small contradiction was found in their common interests, their alliance would collapse in an instant." ”
Thinking of this, Duan Feng suddenly had more hope in his heart for the victory of this war.
The three of them continued to move south, and stopped at a distance of thirty miles from Phoenix.
