Chapter Eighty-Six: The Halfway Assassin
Gu Jun unceremoniously sat in Zhao Ting's carriage, and said: "Close protection." ”
Zhao Ting has been pampered in his grandfather's house since he was a child, and even if he returns to King Li's mansion, he is favored by Prince Li in every way, so he naturally does not want to travel in the same car with others, but Gu Jun's appearance of taking it for granted makes him irresistible.
Gu Jun couldn't put down the ring given by Zhao Ting, he had only seen the pattern in the library of Yuntizong before, and he had never seen the real thing, and he didn't think that now only the treasure worn by the royal family and nobles can also wear it himself, and he feels worth millions.
Gu Jun sat in the carriage and fiddled with the ring on his middle finger from time to time, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a greedy smile, which made Zhao Ting very unhappy.
According to Gu Jun's meaning, if Zhao Ting didn't fill this ring for a day, he had to eat and live with this greedy man in coarse linen clothes to ensure that he could perform the defense task single-handedly. When did Zhao Ting suffer such a wretched anger in a dignified world? Naturally, he hated it at all, but he dared not speak out in anger, after all, the guards he brought were not Gu Jun's opponents.
After Gu Jun played with the vows for a while, he meditated cross-legged and began to practice the Xuanzhong Technique.
Seeing this, Zhao Ting also meditated and cultivated. He grew up in the Thousand Flames Country since he was a child, and his cultivation techniques were naturally inseparable from the flames, so as soon as he entered the cultivation state, his whole body began to heat up, and the heat wave blew open the curtains of the carriage, making the guards on horseback reluctant to approach the carriage, because the carriage was too hot! The horses pulling the carriage neighed vigorously as soon as he entered the cultivation state......
Because Gu Jun has a starfish buckle in his body, he is not even afraid of fire, let alone heat. He didn't feel the heat in the carriage at all, and devoted himself to the cultivation of his Xuanzhong Technique.
Now Gu Jun has reached the top of the Void Pool Realm, and that day by leading the Beast King to practice the joint force array, he has already had a first glimpse of the door of the Pool Xuan Realm, but he lacks a chance to break out.
When a martial artist cultivates to the Void Pool Realm, the True Yuan in his body presents a liquid state, forming a "Pool Note". Only this kind of "pool note" condensed into a solid state of "Xuanjing" can truly enter the pool Xuan realm. And this kind of leap from quantitative change to qualitative change is very difficult. Therefore, the void growth of the Central Continent is a lot, but the Chi Shi is pitiful, precisely because this qualitative change is too difficult to achieve.
The condensation of the true element from the liquid state into a solid form requires not only a large enough "pool injection", but also an environment, that is, an opportunity. This opportunity must be for the cultivator to mobilize all the liquid true elements and exert their power in order to stimulate the qualitative change of the true essence.
This is an extremely dangerous thing. Because this kind of qualitative change either takes place in an extremely tragic battle, and the qualitative change is stimulated through the blood of the battle of life and death, or it is simply cultivated by oneself alone, and this kind of cultivation must be continuous until the "pool note" condenses into "Xuanjing", otherwise the previous efforts will be wasted.
The former is prone to death in battle, and the latter is prone to go mad and never recover. Both are desperate to survive.
But there is also a way to do it without taking risks, but it requires the help of someone who is willing to help.
Chi Shi can use Xuanjing to conjure up Xuanjia for defense, which can be said to be invulnerable, so the number of Chi Shi determines the strength of an organization or a sect. In the war, a pool warrior team is a meat grinder, and the warriors below the virtual length are just mud under the feet of the pool warriors.
Therefore, any organization and sect will increase the number of Chishi at any cost. However, due to the harsh conditions for generating poolers, someone invented a safe way to expand the number of poolers. This is known as the "wall-building method".
The so-called "wall building method" is to enclose the imaginary "pool note" with external force and compress it, so as to carry out the battle of trapped beasts until the liquid true element succumbs to the "wall" and is willing to be compressed into "Xuanjing".
The external force in this must be the Yuan Sect that has reached the Heavenly Yuan Realm. Only by becoming Yuanzong can you have Yuandan, and only the energy of New Year's Day can "build a wall" for the imaginary pool.
Therefore, most of the Chi Shi in this world have a background, and there must be a Yuan Sect behind them. Therefore, Chi Shi can walk sideways on the Middle-earth Continent, and everyone is afraid and respected. This was the case with the two Chi Shi in Zhao Ting's guards, both of whom were disciples of the Sword Sect and were ordered by Li Daoshan to escort Zhao Ting into the Qingdu. This is also the reason why Zhao Qi, the prince of Li, has to find a reliable person to escort Zhao Ting.
Gu Jun naturally didn't have Yuanzong to help him "build a wall", so he could only rely on himself to break into the Chi Xuan Realm, which was dangerous He knew from the book as early as when Yuntizong was in the library pavilion, so he didn't dare to act rashly, but he was constantly expanding his "pool note".
This approach is not good. The good thing is that the strength can be improved, and the bad thing is that the larger the pool injection, the more difficult it is to condense into Xuanjing. But once it condenses into Xuanjing, its strength is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary Chishi.
Gu Jun knew very well in his heart that his current martial arts, if he fought head-on with Zhao Ting's two Chi Shi guards, the chances of winning were not great, and he could only win by tricks. Now that he has seriously injured those two Chi Shi, he will definitely wait for an opportunity to retaliate in the future, and then it may be the best time for him to break into the Chi Xuan Realm.
So Gu Jun smiled, smiling strangely and happily.
Zhao Ting is still cultivating at the moment, the clothes on his body are already sweaty, and his skin is hissing with a long white gas, like mist and dew, reflecting his white and red skin, so handsome.
The carriage galloped but always steady, and the sudden slight shaking made Gu Jun open his eyes. The green hills outside the car window are reflected in the sunset, and they are brilliant and beautiful.
Suddenly, a dark arrow shot in from the car window and went straight into Zhao Ting's throat, extremely accurate, Gu Jun was startled, and hurriedly reached out to hold the flying dark arrow - the tip of the arrow was only a millimeter away from Zhao Ting's throat.
The sound of the dark arrow breaking the wind and the turbulent air flow when Gu Jun made a move made Zhao Ting startled, he opened his eyes, and looked at Gu Jun holding the tip of the arrow directly at his throat, he couldn't help but be angry and shocked, and blurted out indiscriminately: "I said why do you have to ride in the same carriage with me, it turns out that you are waiting for an opportunity to kill me!"
"How much is this?" asked Gu Jun unhurriedly with two fingers.
"II. Zhao Ting finished answering inexplicably, and Gu Jun snorted and laughed.
"Just know how to count. In a moment you count how many of these arrows are on this wagon. ”
As soon as Gu Jun's words fell, the sound of swishing wind broke one after another, and the body was immediately pierced into a hedgehog and cracked and cheerful, and Gu Jun had already grabbed Zhao Ting's shoulder and pushed it up, directly breaking the roof of the carriage and rushing out!
"Why don't you use your own head to put the lid on the car!"
"You wear a red tasseled crown on your head, and you won't be stupid with a car lid!"
“!”
The moment the two landed, a group of black-clothed people swooped down from the sky from all directions like vultures, waving the weapons in their hands, threatening to smash them.
Gu Jun grabbed Zhao Ting and threw it into the air, throwing it straight up and down, just within the attack range of all the men in black. They immediately stopped their whereabouts and aimed at Zhao Ting, and the long sword stabbed Zhao Ting's neck with the silver shining sword flower!
Zhao Ting was so frightened that he yelled, his body was hot and sweaty and instantly turned cold, and his palms hurriedly urged out the flames in his body, and grabbed the knives, forks, and halberds that were slashed at him, thinking that he could block a few knives and block a few knives, and there were fewer holes in his body, but he couldn't care about hating Gu Jun at this time.
Gu Jun saw that these black-clothed people really turned to attack Zhao Ting as he expected, snorted coldly, and used a shocking foot under his feet, and instantly flew into the sky, directly hitting Zhao Ting in mid-air, knocking him away from the attack point of all weapons, and then he heard the sound of clanging and clanging of short-handed soldiers, all of which were the sound of weapons colliding between the black-clothed people's accomplices......
"You have a tacit understanding, not only attacking the same person together, but also attacking the same person at the same point! Isn't there someone offering a reward for Zhao Ting's head?" Gu Jun caught Zhao Ting who fell from the sky, stood him on his side, hugged his arms and said suspiciously, "Let me guess, who sent you?"
Zhao Ting was shocked at the moment, holding his chest with his hands and panting unevenly, a pair of angry eyes glanced fiercely at Gu Jun's smiling face, it was really hateful, angry and helpless - the mood was complicated!
"I don't know if I should thank you for saving my life or hate you for using me as bait against the assassins!"
"Who made you just wronged me. ”
“!”
Gu Jun pointed at Zhao Ting's guards who were hiding far away, and shouted: "Hey, hey, hey, what are you eating! Didn't you see the assassins coming? Go grab a few and ask who sent them!"
“......”
"What are you doing in a daze! Go! Don't worry! I can't beat you, I'll help you! Go, go!"
“......”
The guards then limped their weapons and walked towards the Assassins......
The assassins were very dissatisfied with Gu Jun's tone, and they were so angry that their faces jumped violently, waved the weapons in their hands, and slashed at Gu Jun! They understood that if they wanted to kill Zhao Ting, they had to deal with the scheming teenager beside Zhao Ting first, otherwise they might be deflated by him when he took advantage of the loophole!
"It's good! It's good!" Gu Jun grabbed Zhao Ting and sent him forward, shouting at the guards, "If you lose Zhao Ting as a hostage, I see that you have entered the Qingdu, how to deal with the royal family, and how to explain to the Sword Sect!"
Zhao Ting's guards were all carefully selected by Li Daoshan, in order to let Zhao Ting'an arrive in Qingdu safely and enter the Tai Academy as a hostage of the royal family, so as to restrain King Li and control the frontier.
Now Gu Jun's virtue of using Zhao Ting as a shield makes these guards very tight. Although they didn't believe that Gu Jun would really do this, but the scene where Gu Jun threw Zhao Ting to the cusp just now was really terrifying, in case there was a mistake that made Zhao Ting injured or disabled, they would definitely be severely punished when they returned to the Qingdu Sword Sect, so at this moment, they had to rush up to attack that group of assassins.
However, this group of assassins obviously came prepared, they were agile, and their secret weapons were frequent, and they seemed to know the strength and skills of this group of guards well, forcing the guards to retreat again and again, only defensively, but without the power to fight back.
"It seems that this group of people is very familiar with you!" Gu Jun commented on the side, "Are you reminiscing about the old or the old or the old?
The two Chi soldiers in the escort did not participate in the battle because they were seriously injured, and when they heard Gu Jun's words at this moment, they were quite angry. The two of them glanced at each other, blended into the battle group together, and the tide of battle immediately turned around.
