Chapter 456: Black Hands, Underground
Seeing this scene, the cultivators present all looked solemn and uneasy. I thought that the black hand behind the scenes should be acting in secret, deliberately avoiding the Huaxia cultivators, but I didn't expect that this person not only had no fear, but actually left a mark on the villagers, and now he is even more unscrupulous to appear above everyone's heads to provoke the Huaxia cultivators. What worried Jing Yi and the others was that since the other party dared to leave a breath to confront them face to face, it meant that the black-robed cultivator was already in his chest. The enemy is in the dark, they are in the light, and the other party has the power of time and space that the world fears. If they are determined to fight to the death, Huaxia will be powerless to fight back.
When the black mist disfigured the human face disappeared, the villagers fell to the ground as if they had been drained of all their strength. Seeing this scene, Qi Qiao Changqin's face changed greatly, whether it was the mysterious black-robed cultivator or the terrifying power of time, he couldn't compete with it. Although he sought the help of everyone in the Shenwu Academy, he was still very uncertain in his heart, he didn't know if the cultivators of the Shenwu Academy could remove the power of time from the Jiuli villagers, so a large part of everything he did was gambling. Now that he saw the villagers suddenly falling, he thought that Wu Dao's formation had failed, so he was shocked.
Seeing the face of Qiao Changqin, Wu Dao hurriedly stopped Qiao Changqin, who wanted to rush forward, and comforted him: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the power of time on these villagers has been cracked, and the reason why they can't wake up is because they have been sleepless for the past few days, and they have almost exhausted all their physical energy. But in fact, their bodies are fine, and they only need to recuperate for a few days to recover as before, so Your Majesty does not need to panic. ”
Hearing Wu Dao's words, Qiao Changqin's heart finally relaxed. While he ordered someone to send the imperial doctor to check the health of the villagers, he invited Wu Dao and the cultivators of the Shenwu Academy to the imperial study. At the same time, Changqin instructed Guo Lu Shuo to hold a banquet in the imperial dining room to entertain the cultivators of the Shenwu Academy. Although Qiao Changqin didn't understand the formation, through Wu Dao's pale face, he also knew that Wu Dao's physical strength was very expensive.
On the way to the imperial study, Jing Yi turned his head and asked Bai You softly, "Senior Bai, although Wu Dao has healed these people of the Jiuli clan, I always feel as if we have fallen into someone else's calculations. Judging from what the black-robed cultivator said, it seems that he had already expected that we would help the people of the Jiuli Dynasty, and his purpose was not to hope that the Jiuli Clan would be their internal response as he had said to the Qiao Changqin, but to deliberately lead us here and then show up to meet us. Although we don't know who he really is, listening to his words, it seems that we are determined to obtain the key to the heavens. And judging by his confident appearance, he should have found the legendary ancient road. Since he hates Huaxia to the core, if he opens the Eternal Heaven and captures the power of the Ancient, he will definitely invade Huaxia as soon as possible. ”
"Yes, that's what worries me. It seems that that the ancient road really exists, and all we can do now is to unite the forces of Huaxia and strive to find the five Heavenly Keys buried in the Huaxia Ancestral Star before the black-robed cultivator makes a move, only in this way will his trick not succeed. Moreover, I am worried about more than that, since he can take Huangfu Longchen under his command, it means that he will also entangle all the forces that are eyeing Huaxia together. If those people are also at his disposal and used by him, then Huaxia will be threatened with extermination. Bai You's face was solemn, he stroked his white beard in his hand, and said with a sigh.
Soon after everyone returned to the imperial study, Qiao Changqin ordered someone to move the tables and chairs into the room and entertain everyone directly in the imperial study. The Southern Wilderness is known as the capital of medicine and the paradise of ten thousand demons by the world, so the banquet of the overseas Chinese Changqin entertaining everyone is very rich, and all kinds of delicacies and seas are filled with attractive aromas, provoking everyone's taste buds. However, because Jing Yi, Bai You and others were worried about something, they ate this meal a little absent-mindedly.
Seeing Bai You and Jing Yi's expressions, Qiao Changqin thought that the other party was worried that he would not be able to arrive at Fenglin Academy before the grand event, so Qiao Changqin hurriedly stood up, picked up his wine glass and said to Jing Yi: "Senior Jing is worried that he will not be able to arrive at Fenglin Academy before the grand event? In fact, I have already thought about this for my seniors, and after the banquet is over, I will let Guo Lu Shuo go to Fenglin Academy with all the Taoist friends of Shenwu Academy." Although Fengcheng is not as good as the Huaxia Imperial Capital, we still have a teleportation array. It's just that because the people and cultivators here don't go out often, it hasn't been activated for a long time. However, I believe that with the help of Wu Daoyou's formation, the teleportation array should be able to restart soon. Fengcheng is only a few hundred miles away from Fenglin Academy, and I believe that it will be enough for you to get there in one day. ”
"Then thank you, Your Majesty, because the grand meeting of the five-year covenant is about to be held, so it is inconvenient for us to stay for a long time. If we have the opportunity in the future, we will definitely come to Jiuli City to disturb us. Jing Yi raised his glass and said.
"Senior Jing, here are fifty heavenly crystals and some spirit grasses and demon beasts, our Jiuli clan thanks to the help of all seniors and Taoist friends, just a small courtesy, and hope to accept it. Seeing that Jing Yi and the others were about to leave, Chang Qiao hurriedly nodded at Guo Lu Shuo beside him. Guo Lu Shuo received the signal from Qiao Changqin, took out the package containing the spars, herbs and Neidan from his arms, and put it in front of Jing Yi and the others.
"Your Majesty is polite, whether it is the compatriots of the Jiuli tribe or the descendants of Yan and Huang, they are all the people of China, it is within our duty to help us, how dare we accept your gift!" Jing Yi waved his hand and refused.
"This ...... Jing seniors, this is also a little bit of my Jiuli tribe's little care, first, to thank you for helping my Jiuli people, and secondly, when you go out, spar herbs are a must-have, and I am just talking about the heart, so please don't refuse Jing seniors. Seeing that Jing Yi was reluctant to accept items such as spars and elixirs, he pushed the package in front of Jing Yi again and said sincerely.
"In this way, I will accept some herbs, and as for the spar and the demon beast inner pill, please take it back from Your Majesty. There is a meeting in the mountains and rivers, and our trip is indeed urgent, so we will not bother anymore, Your Majesty, take care, we will leave first. Jing Yi couldn't refuse, so he had to take out a few spirit grasses from the package and said with a smile to the Qiao Changqin.
In this way, Jing Yi and Bai You led Ling Yu and the three of them out of Jiuli City, and galloped towards Fengxiangju with Guo Lu Shuo. According to Jing Yi's previous thoughts, he was going to repair in Fengxiang Residence for one night, and then rush to Fenglin Academy tomorrow morning, but the appearance of the black-robed cultivator made Jing Yi's pressure double. The Key of Tianque is not only related to the Shenwu Academy, but also related to the future of the entire Huaxia, so he can't delay.
That night, Wu Dao was led by Guo Lu Shuo to the teleportation array in Fengcheng, and because no one had used this teleportation array for thousands of years, the array was covered with thick dust. After Wu Dao swept away the dust, he re-engraved the formation patterns of the teleportation array. Then, he checked the location of Fenglin Academy with Guo Lu Shuo, and after nearly half an hour of proofreading, he finally opened the teleportation array again. Although the area around the teleportation array was already covered with thick bushes, and the dense foliage obscured the teleportation array, the teleportation array did not lose its effectiveness. After Wu Dao smashed the falling stone into the array, the teleportation array regained its function in a soft white halo.
Jing Yi and Guo Lu Shuo took the lead, Ling Yu and the others followed, and finally Wu Dao and Bai You. When everyone's figures disappeared into this soft white light in turn, the teleportation array returned to its former calm.
Ling Yu stepped into the teleportation array, turned his head to look at the slowly disappearing light gate, and was full of emotion for a while. Thinking back to a few years ago, he was still training in the snowy jungle with Ling Feng and Di Xun's two grandfathers, and then he returned to the snowy region alone, met the treacherous Xiao Hei, and when he went to Tianjimen, he met the unscrupulous Wu Fatzi. After that, he got acquainted with Liuyun, Twilight Thousand Feathers, and Xuanbing Mink. It wasn't until three years ago that he left the Northern Regions and rushed to practice at the Shenwu Academy, where he met many close friends. In the blink of an eye, three years will pass, and he will also leave Shenwu and crawl in the red dust, in order to fly to the immortal realm, in order to find out the truth about the turmoil in the immortal realm, in order to find the mastermind behind the turmoil in Huaxia. In the past, this was something he had never thought of, but he didn't expect that a series of past events would happen in the turbulent years. Everything was as if it were a world away, and everything was so real, as if it were yesterday. In the past, I always heard people say that everyone will grow up and experience their own joys and sorrows, and their own joys and sorrows. Now Ling Yu realized that the growth of his heart and mind was like a white horse passing through a gap, accumulating day by day in the years that he was unaware of, and finally rushed to the distant future. Meet some, leave some, meet some, leave some, and so on, never be reborn.
"Boy, what are you thinking? We're almost there, recharge our energy, and get ready to compete with the young heroes of the world. Jing Yi turned his head to see Ling Yu's distracted expression, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said with a smile.
After Jing Yi finished speaking, a light blue light suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and everyone knew that the destination of their trip, Fenglin Academy, had finally arrived!
When Jing Yi came to the front of the Guangmen, he said aloud to the hundreds of cultivators behind him: "You are all young heroes who are about to graduate from the Shenwu Academy, you have suffered hardships and sins in the past three years, and you have also tasted the joy of cultivation, in a few days, it is time to test the results of your cultivation in the past three years, I will not ask you to achieve any ranking, I only hope that you can be worthy of your efforts in the past three years, and don't let your life leave regrets." ”
After Jing Yi finished speaking, he turned around and rushed towards the portal. Seeing Jing Yi's actions, the others were no longer lazy, they followed closely behind, rushed into the light gate, and disappeared into the sea of stars.
