Chapter 263: Finding the Barbarian City Again
Until many years later, I will never forget the promise I made in the Forbidden City of Beijing, when I came out of the Sanqing Temple in the morning light on the edge of the sky, and I firmly fulfilled it in the years before the catastrophe came.
Until...... The catastrophe has truly arrived!
I followed Hong Tianjun out of the back door of the Forbidden City and found that an elongated Hongqi sedan had already parked there. A uniformed guard opened the door for us and let us in.
"Jiang Ming, you have been to the netherworld, you should know that the signs of the great catastrophe of heaven and earth have gradually appeared, and there are often incidents in the netherworld where demons are eroded by the weird power that comes out of the deepest part of the netherworld and go crazy, and the yang world will gradually become unpeaceful...... If our calculations are correct, there are still four years before the time when the Great Tribulation will truly break out! In these four years, you need to devour all the Spirit Kings, fuse all the magic powers of the five veins of metaphysics, and be proficient. Become the strongest person in the Yang Realm throughout the ages to fight against that strange and mysterious force and let the catastrophe pass. ”
When these words are spoken. Hong Tianjun's expression was unprecedentedly serious. I also sat upright and made my vows very formally. Brave the hardships and dangers, complete the plan of the ancestors of the Feng family, maternal uncles, grandfathers, masters, and Brother Long!
The car sped all the way towards the first day of the king's mansion......
When I returned to the mansion, I realized that everyone else was already waiting for us in the Heavenly Monarch's Mansion. Qin Yu, Lu Tianming, Gao Quan, Li Rui, Fu Ergou, Shen Xue, Ke Wei, Wanjun seniors......
Seeing Hong Tianjun walk in with me, everyone showed a happy look on their faces and gathered around us. Gao Quan, the fat man, habitually wanted to pick up his fist and punch his shoulder, but when he saw Hong Tianjun next to him, he immediately put it down, looking a little embarrassed.
"Okay, all of them here are Jiang Ming's friends, and they are also my trusted juniors. So, if you guys want to. You can follow Jiang Ming to do a very important thing, which is related to the entire Chinese Xuanmen and even the whole world! But this matter is also very dangerous, and it may be life-threatening at every turn. You are all friends of Jiang Ming, talk to Jiang Ming. Wanjun, come with me, we have too many things to prepare for staying in Beijing......"
My maternal uncle and grandfather would naturally exude a kind of majesty as a strong man of the Dao Sect second only to Sanqing in front of outsiders, and they were stunned by these little friends of mine, and listened very carefully.
On the way back, we had already discussed the details of the future arrangement. The Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth is an event with great impact, in addition to the need to deal with the top powerhouses and unknown mysterious forces in the Yin Division, the impact of the local overlap of the two worlds of Yin and Yang on ordinary people needs to be systematically arranged and protected by the state. This burden needs to be carried by Hong Tianjun to a large extent, so I need to find the remaining three spirit kings to devour and fuse them later.
Wait until my maternal uncle and grandfather are gone. Gao Quan, the fat man, slapped me on the shoulder: "Jiang Ming, you are too good!" Brother, I couldn't believe it. It seems that it didn't take long ago that you were chased by an old serpent guy in any warehouse, and now you can kill him by blowing your breath, right? ”
I opened his fleshy whirring hand: "Go, go, I'm not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue, I haven't bragged yet, but you take the initiative to help me blow it." ”
Everyone else laughed, Hong Tianjun took Wanjun's seniors away, and there were all young people here. Even if my strength is much higher than theirs, there is no gap between everyone talking.
Then, on the first day, in the quaint hall of the Prince's Mansion, I told them many things as they were. As I spoke, the faces of the others were suddenly nervous and shocked, which made me feel a little funny. When he finished speaking, the mouths of the two more pompous guys, Fat Man and Fu Ergou, became "O" shaped.
Even Qin Yu became a little not too calm, and looked at me with eyes like looking at monsters: "You...... You want to devour all the five spirit kings since ancient times and turn them into your power? And two have already succeeded, devouring the Blood Spirit King and the Dark Spirit King?! ”
I spread my hands and honestly explained, "No, to be precise, it only devoured the Blood Spirit King to gain its power of blood. As for the Dark Spirit King, I don't know what it's like at the moment. It seems that something has changed, and it has completely penetrated into the bronze coffin in the depths of my soul, and I tried to open it but there was no response. After discussing with my maternal uncle and grandfather, I decided to find and devour the other three Spirit Kings first. ”
Gao Quan patted his stomach vigorously and looked at me incredulously: "The terrifying existence of the Spirit King is the strongest demon in the world. I also once got drunk and my dad got drunk and put out a lot of secrets in the supernatural circle, and I knew that there was still this kind of power far beyond the existence of earth immortals. Brother Jiang Ming, you actually want to eat the Spirit King as food now, and you still eat all five of them? And you've already eaten one or two!! Isn't it delicious? Does it taste like roast duck? ”
As soon as he said this, everyone immediately laughed.
I took advantage of the situation and kicked him in the ass: "You guy is always bad at talking. Then he said to the people, "All right, brothers, I have said all that I have to say." Next, my mission is to go to three different places and harvest the Spirit King! Although my maternal grandfather had agreed to this secret plan, I think that most people in the Chinese Xuanmen are still a little resistant to it. They prefer to prepare for the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth by conventional means, so we are secretly doing it as a surprise soldier and filing. I don't know if the Feng family's ancestor was right...... Would you like to join me? ”
As soon as the words came, everyone's hands were raised in unison. Looking at these excited or indifferent faces, I only felt a warm current flowing in my heart. I knew how powerful the Spirit King was, and even if he was weak, he had terrible destructive power, but no one flinched, and all of them said that they wanted to accompany me.
I nodded heavily: "Okay! Let's go together, after all, a great man once said that we are the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning! In this world, the future is our stage after all. Without experiencing the tempering of life and death, how to revive the Chinese majesty when everything is in ruins after the catastrophe of heaven and earth! ”
Everyone was enthusiastic, and after discussing the arrangements and plans, it was determined that the first destination was Goguryeo Mancheng in the deep mountains of the northeast!
That's right, I already know the hiding places of the remaining three Spirit Kings from Hong Tianjun's mouth! According to his speculation based on various signs, among the remaining three spirit kings, the one hiding in the Goguryeo barbarian city should be the weakest, and it is estimated that he was seriously injured in a certain spirit tribulation hundreds of years ago.
At this time, the sky was completely bright, but everyone yawned and was full of sleepiness. After last night's battle for the defense of Miaofeng Town and the final battle under the Forbidden City, my physical strength and energy have long been exhausted, and I need to sleep well to replenish it. So they all found a room to sleep in the Tianjun Mansion, slept well in the dark, and set off again tomorrow.
Before we each went back to our rooms to sleep, Kewei let each of us swallow a pill. It is said to replenish physical strength, relieve fatigue, and sleep more soundly.
The means of medical literacy are really extremely important! I don't know when I'll learn and integrate. But you can't chew it if you are greedy! My uncle and grandfather have already said that I will have a year to devour the remaining three Spirit Kings, and then come back and spend another two years learning all the spells of the five veins of metaphysics......
I winced my eyebrows and deliberately teased Kewei: "Sister, are you interested in sleeping with your brother?" I think you have a crush on me. ”
So, amid everyone's laughter and Shen Xue's chuckle covering her mouth, I was beaten into a pig's head by Ke Wei and went back to my room to sleep......
This night, I slept very sweetly, and I didn't even have a dream. When I woke up, it was already early the next morning, and I really slept for almost twenty-four hours!
When I came to the Fuzhong Hall for breakfast, I found that except for me and Lu Tianming, everyone else had already arrived, and I was considered to be up late. Hong Tianjun and Wanjun's predecessors are also here, and there are many people I don't know, almost seven or eight, gathered in groups of three or five. When they saw me appear, they all smiled and greeted me. From the fluctuations on their bodies, it could be felt that except for the two youngest of these people who were at the peak of the Dao Law realm of the half-immortal peak, the others were all earth immortals!
Although I don't know each other, I also understand at this time that this should be Hong Tianjun's own team, right? In the Xuanmen magic world, which ordinary people can't imagine, there are actually gangs and factions, no different from ordinary people.
After Hong Tianjun took me and these uncles to meet one by one, he took out a letter to me: "This is a letter sent by the Lu family yesterday, asking Lu Tianming to rush home to attend the family meeting. So it looks like he can't go with you. ”
Seeing that I was a little disappointed, he patted me on the shoulder and said, "Lu Xiujing, the ancestor of the Lu family, is also a member of the Daomen, and his historical status in the Daomen will not be too different from Wang Xuanfu and Zhang Daoling. It is normal for the Lu family to have their own plans, after all, it is impossible for the religious office to make all the Xuanmen families submit. Before the catastrophe of heaven and earth, I am afraid that there will be some selfishness. If he can leave this letter to explain to you, it can be seen that he really treats you as brothers, so he doesn't have to worry too much. ”
I nodded, and I could understand Lu Tianming's decision. In a Taoist family like him, there must be a lot of rules, and there are too many things to worry about.
As soon as he turned around, he heard Hong Tianjun add in the back: "By the way, Jiang Ming, Shen Xue and Fu Ergou should also stay." I thought about it carefully, they are relatively weak, and it is not much use to go with you. If you stay in Beijing and follow, it can also help the overall situation. You wouldn't mind, would you? ”
As soon as I heard this, my heart blossomed. Of course I won't mind! I'm also worried that Shen Xue and Fu Ergou are too weak, and I'm afraid it will be more troublesome to follow us, but as friends, I can't bear to say it directly. Now that my awesome maternal uncle and grandfather have arranged for them to stay, it's best to do so.
He immediately turned around and nodded, and agreed. Even if Shen Xue and Fu Ergou are not very willing, Hong Tianjun's request may not be refused......
The preparations before departure are a bit boring. When we got everything ready and walked out of the gate of the palace on the first day, the sun was slowly rising over the city of Beijing, and the ancient glazed tiles reflected the sunlight, reflecting the whole city of Beijing with golden brilliance.
I, Ke Wei, Qin Yu, Gao Quan, and Li Rui got into a special military vehicle for the Spirit Warfare Force sent to us by Hong Tianjun, and headed all the way to the airport. The special plane from Beijing to Yichun has been prepared for a long time, just waiting for us to arrive on time and take off directly to Yichun!
With the increase in strength and status, it is indeed a lot more convenient at least in terms of these inconsequential details. In the early morning, it was still in the bustling capital of Beijing, and it was not yet noon, and when I looked out the window in the cabin, I could already see the rolling green mountains below, like a dormant dragon winding on the ground. The straight and straight Hung Yen larch looks extremely shocking in the sun, like soldiers waiting for review.
"Is this the primeval forest of the Northeast? I've never been here yet. I've only seen it on TV and in books, it's spectacular......" Kewei looked down with her face almost pressed against the glass, looking very surprised. Under her brutal and willful shell, she still has Xiao Nizi's feelings.
I grabbed her back: "What's there to see?" Your face is already big, and it's about to turn into a pie if you squeeze it like this. ”
just teased it so casually, but I didn't expect this girl to suddenly go crazy. The brutal nature suddenly exploded and beat me up. It stands to reason that with my current strength in the middle stage of the Earth Immortal, and I am a soldier cultivator, it is impossible for me to be hurt at all. But don't forget, this girl is a genius of medical literacy, and every punch seems to be messy, but it actually hits the painful acupuncture points accurately......
As for Qin Yu, Gao Quan, and Li Rui, the three undisciplined guys, they watched me being beaten with relish. Especially Qin Yu, he also said lightly: "Ke Wei beat him hard, this guy is too cheap, I can't get used to it for a long time......"
Looking at Kewei's angry appearance, he didn't know what was going on, and vaguely felt that he seemed to have something more in his heart. Sometimes, I feel that the shadow of this unruly girl and the figure of the gentle and simple girl from Miao Village gradually overlapped...... Actually, they were the same person, right?
For the first time in my life, I felt something called "growing pains." Inside, I always feel as if I like two girls at the same time, but at the same time, I comfort myself with their two personalities who are the same person......
In this way, in a relatively relaxed environment, our special plane landed smoothly at the airport in Yichun City.
As soon as I got off the plane, I thanked the pilot and the two Psitron fighters who had followed us so that they could go back. Unexpectedly, they saluted me: "We will always wait for the chief to complete the task in Yichun City!" It also helps you with some chores. "Only then did I realize that my maternal uncle and grandfather had allocated to me the members of the three spirit warfare troops, which in their current form were extremely precious.
In that case, I don't refuse anything anymore, that would be too hypocritical.
"Then please take us to the hotel to stay, and by the way, help us prepare some necessary supplies for entering the mountain. We'll leave in the afternoon. I said to the three members of the Spirit Warfare Force.
With my own strength, I don't need any supplies. Once you step into the realm of earth immortals, if you really want to get up, you won't have a problem if you don't eat for ten days and half a month! But Kewei Qin Yu and they are obviously not good, although they are far stronger than ordinary people, they still have some needs......
It has to be said that with the assistance of three high-quality top military talents, the efficiency is extremely high! At two o'clock in the afternoon, everything was ready for us to enter the mountain.
Looking at the rolling mountains and thinking of the incomparably dangerous Goguryeo barbarian city, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart, and a sense of unreality arose.
Once upon a time, I was a weak little Taoist priest. Follow your predecessors into the legendary Goguryeo Barbarian City, where you have experienced many life and death crises. The white bone magic sword in his hand was also obtained in the Ten Thousand Demon Caves in the Goguryeo Barbarian City at that time......
Now, I'm back. But I am no longer the weak boy I was at the beginning, and I am probably stronger than anyone who entered it back then! If I encounter Yin Lingzi again, or the white monster of Zuo Ci's descendants, I won't have any more fear.
It's a big deal, let's talk about it in a fight! Who is strong and who is weak will only be known after the fight.
If you want to say that you are full of pride in your heart, it is definitely not false!
I stretched out my hand and waved, "Go!" Let's go into the mountains! ”
The five of us walked along the path into the depths of the dense forest, and in an instant we were far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and there was no human population around us.
One mid-stage earth immortal, four half-immortals. Such a luxurious lineup, if it weren't for the advent of the Heaven and Earth Tribulation, it might be difficult to see. Taoist priests in this realm are either very old, or they are in retreat and penance in secret rooms, and very few of them have entered the world. It is only in such turbulent turbulent times or prosperous times that fate will allow so many talented Xuanmen wizards to appear in the world!
Not to mention myself, whether it is Ke Wei, Qin Yu, or Gao Quan, Li Rui...... If they were placed in the peaceful years of the Xuanmen Spell Realm, they would all be called peerless geniuses! But in this era, although it is also very outstanding, it cannot be called peerless.
As soon as you enter the depths of this deep mountain and old forest, it becomes a high-quality world. This guy is a master of playing with snakes, and besides snakes, other beasts can barely control and manipulate if they are not too strong. In this kind of old forest infested by monsters and beasts, it is simply his natural home!
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the truly desolate and deep primeval forest and completely escaped from human habitation, the fat man shouted: "Oh, oops, how troublesome is it to travel like this? Jiang Ming, you are now in a mysterious way, and you are a mess, can't we fly directly? Do you want us to go to the so-called Goguryeo barbarian city to feel at ease? ”
Before I could say anything, Ke Wei had already reached out and grabbed Gao Quan's ear: "Hey, what are you talking nonsense about a dead fat man?" Is Jiang Ming that kind of person! ”
"Oh, my aunt, of course I know my brother isn't that kind of person. Our lives are in his hands, do you care about taking a little more hard road? Gao Quan was tugged at Kewei's ears and cried out pitifully.
I smiled wryly and explained to everyone: "Although my current Dao realm, coupled with the special fusion of Yuan Force in my body, my strength can indeed be said to be able to rank in the top twenty in the entire Chinese Xuanmen. But there is still no way to fly at high speed with everyone in the flesh, and even I am afraid that I will need to consume a lot of yuan power to really soar and fly fast in the flesh! After all, the Dao method is not a legendary immortal art, and it is not omnipotent. If you insist on flying with everyone's body, you can only float slowly, and the speed is slower than walking, which is definitely more than worth the loss. ”
Ke Wei let go of Gao Quan's ears: "Are you satisfied now?" Hum! ”
Qin Yu gave me a thumbs up: "I didn't expect you to be so likable to girls." One sentence made Kewei, a grumpy woman, a little shy.
Gao Quan rubbed his red ears: "Actually...... I also knew that it was impossible for Jiang Ming to fly with all of us in the flesh with his Dao technique. When I was a child, I asked my grandfather, and he said that he couldn't even do the Four Emperors and the First Day Jun, and the high Sanqing was not clear. The reason why I say this is that I was going to pretend to be a force myself. I want to say something that even a powerful earth immortal like you can't solve, but my fat man has solved it......"
His aggrieved little daughter-in-law-like appearance made everyone laugh, and even the corners of Qin Yu's mouth, who was usually not very good at laughing, were raised. I immediately kicked him in the ass angrily: "If you have a good way, take it out!" Hurry up and get to the Goguryeo Barbarian City, the sooner I can fuse the other Spirit Kings, the stronger I can get before the Heaven and Earth Tribulation comes. ”
"Hehe, haven't you heard a word? Barren mountains and large rivers, many dragons and snakes. Dragons can't be born, but giant snakes do. It's not far from us, and it's luck. Look, fat man, I'll let us sit on Jiao and go to Goguryeo Mancheng today, and it will definitely be popular! ”
After Gao Quan finished speaking, he saw that he suddenly took out some things from his arms, combined them into a huge musical instrument with lightning speed, and then put it to his mouth and blew it.
The oddly shaped instrument was put to Gao Quan's mouth, and he also made a very hard blowing motion, and his chubby face was almost swollen red, but we couldn't hear the slightest sound!
This is not surprising, this is a sound that snake controllers use to communicate with snakes, and it is normal for human ears to not be able to hear. However, under my Earth Immortal-level spiritual sense, I could clearly perceive the fluctuations with strange secret power emanating from the strange instrument in Gao Quan's mouth, and it was transmitted in a straight line towards the depths of the forest at an extremely high frequency......
All of us waited patiently to see what kind of snake Gao Quan had made!
After about a minute, there was an immediate change in the surroundings. I had a keen sense that a behemoth, with an earth-shattering and powerful demonic aura, was speeding towards us from the depths of the woods. After another ten seconds, there were rumbling sounds all around, with some kind of behemoth crushing the ground and the impact of the surrounding trees......
Finally, there was a burst of flying sand and stones, and a huge snake appeared in front of everyone!!
I saw that this snake was almost more than 20 meters long, and the diameter of its body was more than one meter. The huge skull had two long, sharp bony horns, its mouth seemed to be moved back a bit less than it would look like for a normal snake, and there were some barbels around the edges of its lips......
All the scenes show that this huge snake is worthy of its name, and it seems that there is really hope of transforming into a dragon. But it's just hope, such a thing as a dragon has been extremely rare since ancient times. As for the real so-called Divine Dragon...... I still don't think that thing exists. It's just that it happens to be the dragon vein that is manifested by our Chinese dragon vein incarnation, and it has been passed down for thousands of years.
This huge snake appeared, and everyone was very calm, and no one panicked. The fat man Gao Quan continued to blow the strange instrument in his mouth, manipulating the huge snake to lower its head in front of him, and even bumped into him affectionately. At this time, Gao Quan also took out a large handful of white powder from his arms and sprinkled it on the top of the huge snake's head.
And after sprinkling these powders, I obviously saw that the red blood light with crazy and violent meaning in the eyes of this snake gradually faded, and it seemed that Gao Quan had made it a lot more docile. At this moment, he finally stopped the instrument he was playing, and pointed at the huge snake that meekly obeyed his command while patting his chest.
After showing off, the fat man hurriedly said, "Okay, okay." This snake is probably the king of this deep mountain and old forest within a radius of 100 miles! It took me a lot of effort to get it down. But I only have about two or three hours to manipulate it perfectly......"
As he spoke, he directly stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and the huge snake gently lowered its huge head and placed it on the grass.
Gao Quan waved at us: "Hurry! Hurry up and sit down! Didn't you say we've got two or three hours? When the time comes, this guy will go crazy again. It's a pity that my snake control technique has not reached the highest level, otherwise my grandfather said that even the most powerful dragon can be controlled! ”
Everyone ignored Gao Quan's boasting, and all of them carefully got on the head of the snake, and then sat down. Qin Yu and I, who were sitting on both sides, each grabbed the bony horn on it, so as not to fall if the snake traveled at an extremely fast speed......
The fat man sat triumphantly at the front of the snake's head, holding the strange instrument and blowing a few times, and the behemoth under him began to rise. Except for the head that was raised high, the rest of the body was curled up and huddled tightly together.
I'm no stranger to this action. Know that when a snake does this, it's either a fierce attack on the enemy or it's ready to run as fast as it can. Obviously, what we are encountering now should belong to the latter!
"Everyone is done, this guy will be fast!" Gao Quan reminded loudly, and I quickly grasped the long horn of the snake bone with one hand, and reached out with the other hand to firmly grasp Kewei to prevent her from falling. This is the first time I have really taken the initiative to touch a girl's hand, and it is much smoother and more delicate than a man's hand, very comfortable......
Ke Wei's face turned red, and he just wanted to pull his hand out and scold me for being a stinky rascal, but the huge snake under him suddenly moved very sensibly!
The tightly compressed muscles completely bounced away in an instant, and the powerful power hidden in the giant snake's body was released in this instant.
Imagine that if a rubber band is tightly contracted or stretched, there will be a huge reaction force. Not to mention...... This is a rubber band more than 20 meters long!
So suddenly, the giant snake rushed out with the five humans sitting on top of its head. In an instant, it was hundreds of meters away!! This speed is absolutely killing our walking, even if our walking speed is beyond the imagination of ordinary mortals.
What I find most incredible is that this primeval forest is full of trees and there are no special roads. The huge snake scurried through it at such a fast speed that it didn't hit a single tree, not even a scrape. It's really amazing, it's like you're running on the ground in an airplane.
It was because of this incredible speed that Kewei couldn't let go of my clenched hand, and he couldn't spare a chance to hit me or call me a stinking hooligan......
In this sense, this snake has made a great contribution.
So, before entering the Goguryeo barbarian city to start the fierce battle. I held Kewei's hand like this, feeling a wave of tenderness, and at the same time, rushed to the ancient ruins that were in danger......
Because the speed was so fast, there was no one to talk along the way, quietly waiting to reach the destination. The big guy finally lived up to our hopes, and it took me less than two hours for me to see the familiar sight.
The remote mountain village buried by the landslide, and the large cracks and holes in the mountainside, I had a great deal of effort from there last time. Later, due to the partial collapse of the outer area of Goguryeo's Manseong, the mountains in this area continued to collapse a little, and the cracks became larger.
At this time, I finally needed to speak, and directly communicated with Gao Quan with my mind, and passed the command into his mind: "Fatty, over there!" See the cracks and holes in the mountainside of the collapsed mountain? Let the snake go, that is the entrance to the Goguryeo barbarian city! ”
"No problem."
Gao Quan responded, and immediately used that strange instrument to manipulate the huge snake to accurately choose the nearest route, and passed on a rampage. Then I came to the crack in the mountainside, and the ground here was littered with rubble of various sizes, which must have fallen from the collapse of the last barbarian city.
The snake gently lowered its huge head to the ground, and we descended from above. I was still holding Kewei's hand, but I was slapped open by the girl who was already red-faced.
Hey, I'm also the youngest Dao Sect Immortal in history, okay? You have to give me some face, right? But it seems that this girl doesn't have any such awareness......
Gao Quan blew the strange instrument a few more times, and let the huge snake leave. At this time, he was already sweating profusely, and the clothes on his body were sweaty. It seems that manipulating such an extremely powerful wild snake monster also consumes spiritual power and physical strength. (To be continued.) )
