Chapter 1: The Starry Gate
June 568 of the Altino calendar, Kyoto, Japan
The fierce battle was still going on, and just above the outskirts of Kyoto, Lancelot was caught in a flanked attack.
A master with only a small heaven can pose a threat to himself, and in theory, this kind of thing is simply incredible. However, Izumi Sakura, who combined the Canglong Mind Method, the Burning City Spear, and the Spear of Longji Crossbow, has become an existence that Lancelot has to face.
If this is the only way, Lancelot can still be at ease, but there is another big problem nearby, Oda Xiang. This little banshee not only cultivated to a deep level in the Heavenly Demon Skill, but the extreme speed of Jiuyao was even more difficult to resist, although he was sure that she was not within a mile now, but with Jiuyao's extremely fast shrinkage into inches, this distance was nothing at all, and she could appear in front of her at any time and send out a desperate sword.
Because of this, Lancelot, who was fighting with Izumi Sakura, still divided half of his mind to pay attention to this knife that he didn't know when.
Under the use of the Canglong Mental Method, the sound of Izumi Sakura's gun became smaller and smaller, and almost even the sound of breaking the wind disappeared, but the power of the gun gradually increased, just like a tornado in the desert, invisible and shadowless before it appeared, and suddenly it came from the sky and the earth.
Affected by Canglong's mental method, what he saw in his eyes, what he heard in his ears, and even the sense of oppression he felt in his sense of touch, the direction, speed, and strength of the tip of the spear were all unreliable, if Lancelot hadn't detected and sensed with a strong Heavenly Heart Consciousness, he would have already been shot eight out of ten shots on his body, Rao was like this, Izumi Sakura's attack still made him feel tricky.
"Boom!", the gold and iron resonated, and the Fenghua knife was attached to the dragon spear, like a dragonfly dotting water, and it was slashed down lightly.
Izumi Sakura flicked her wrist, and she didn't hesitate to let go of the gun, and the dragon spear followed the bullet momentum before she got out of her hand, bent on the ground, and hit Lancelot, he avoided it sideways, Izumi Sakura flew back at once, the posture was wonderful, and she had re-held the dragon spear in her hand, flung it horizontally, and hit Lancelot in the back again.
Although the dragon clan is not good at body and light skills, but the Burning City marksmanship is evolved from the action of the dragon flying in the air, at this moment high-altitude combat, up and down the four sides are not restricted, soaring smart, many subtleties of the Burning City marksmanship, but also can play handy, but see the spring Sakura clothes dancing with the wind, although the weak attack is strong, but it does not fall behind at all.
In the fierce fight, there are also good things. Izumi Sakura was after hearing Oda Xiang's screaming call, he didn't even reply to his senses, he acted purely on instinct, and rushed over directly, wearing the same set of coarse cloth kimonos, which was not suitable for large-scale battles, after a few staggered attacks and defenses, the slit of the hem of the kimono cracked straight to the thighs, whenever Izumi Sakura rose up, the white and silky leg curves always made Lancelot can't help but glance at the past, if it weren't for the point of the gun coming at the same time, he might really be whistling.
"Kill!"
Another shot struck, and Lancelot was about to catch the knife, but he didn't know that the power of the burning city gun contained in the spear head exploded violently at the moment when the two divine soldiers were about to make contact. The powerful blasting power has a miraculous effect in destroying the true qi of the body, even Lancelot can't stand it, snorted, and stepped back a few feet.
The same blasting power also posed a threat to Izumi Sakura, although the self-protection enchantment generated by the spear of Longji Ballista absorbed a lot of lethality, but Izumi Sakura's pair of jade hands immediately splattered with blood, and could not withstand the shock force that came from this backlash.
Because she was manipulated, Lancelot once wondered if Izumi Sakura was not in pain at the moment, but Izumi Sakura's movements spoke for themselves, and at the same time that her palm was broken and bleeding, she tore off the ribbon that bound her hair, and with a wave of it, she wrapped her right palm around the barrel of the gun, and with both hands, she attacked again.
If you don't feel the pain, you don't have to force your hands to tie your hands to the barrel of the gun, Lancelot is sure that Odaka's control method is to preserve Izumi Sakura's sensory ability, but just use a fiery battle intent that is so strong that it is abnormal, suppress all the external pain, and even turn it into a source of war intent.
It's the same shot again, before the tip of the gun makes contact with the enemy's body, the gun power of the burning city has exploded, this deliberately out of control gun power is really unstoppable, and after two hits, Lancelot only feels that his breath is not smooth, who knows that he has not stabilized the retreat momentum, the tip of the gun flashes in front of him, and another shot stabs.
(There's no way she'll be able to get back to her breath faster than I do, this woman is really dead.) )
This inference is absolutely correct, because every moment after the shot, Izumi Sakura's face turned as pale as snow, and her body was crumbling, but she quickly returned to the color of blood, her cheeks were red, and she was full of energy, and that kind of unreasonable exuberant energy seemed to be ...... Back to light.
In the information, the spear of Longji Ballista is an artifact that absorbs the essence of the user as a power, and it consumes great power, and if it is out of control, it will suck the holder into a dry corpse, and the power of the small heaven is only the basic requirement for transporting it. How many shots has Izumi fired from just now to now? Every time she strikes, her body must be as uncomfortable as the world is turned upside down, right?
Then why can she still hold on? Is she having a great enmity with herself? Or is she having a great enmity with her? From this situation, it seems that she is looking for revenge for her father's death.
Far from being comparable to the state when the chain gun was used a few days ago, the essence of the dragon clan's martial arts was fully exerted under this indomitable heroic momentum. Don't be tricky, every shot is full of the spirit of life and death, even if the difference in strength between the two sides is very large, Lancelot is born to be unable to suppress this little woman whose martial arts are inferior.
And when she saw that her hands holding the gun turned blood-red, and she couldn't see her original shape, Lancelot's heart suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
I can't say what the reason is, but Lancelot does feel heartache when he looks at the blood-red hands that hold the barrel of the gun, the coarse cloth kimono that is half dyed red, and the face that is so pale and almost lifeless after each shot.
Because of this pain, his mind was annoyed and chaotic, and he couldn't be ruthless and re-inflicted the killer, so that he had great strength, and he was in a hurry, and he was gradually crushed.
If she keeps fighting like this, she won't be able to please herself, and Izumi Sakura may not be able to support it first, so it's better to use a heavy hand, get injured desperately, and take a shot from her to subdue her...... Wait, isn't this putting the cart before the horse? This is obviously an opportunity to kill her to take revenge, why would she be thinking about saving people when she should have been a killer?
There was no answer, and there was a faint sound of energy clashes in the distance, if it was Oda Xiang who was doing something with someone, then who was fighting with her...... In terms of strength, Oda Xiang is a steady victory, and there is such a mastery as Jiuyao's extreme speed, and the victory and defeat should be divided at the moment of the battle, so what is the current situation......
I was puzzled, but since there was a fight, I was able to find the location of Oda Ka based on this, and I didn't have to let her be haunted and difficult to guard against like before. Spread out your body now, dodge Izumi's gunshot, close the distance, and move towards the battlefield on the other side.
During the action, Lancelot suddenly felt that something was wrong. In order to avoid innocent people, he and Oda Ka are far away from the center of Kyoto, which is already above the deserted suburbs, and there are no homes or pedestrians, why do you feel like you are being spied on?
Who was watching this battle from the dark? Was it the mysterious master of that day? It doesn't feel like it, the momentum of that master is much stronger than this feeling, but it is also possible that the other party deliberately gathers momentum to create illusions. And whether it is or not, the other party's purpose should be only one, that is, to take advantage of the defeat of himself and Oda Ka, to attack, in order to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
The feeling was fleeting, and it was clear that the other party had also noticed his discovery, and concealed his breath, making it impossible for him to confirm his location, and only after such a delay, Izumi Sakura caught up again, and the two sides fell into a quagmire battle that was difficult to distinguish for a while.
At this point, Lancelot really felt that it was a big head. Just one Izumi Sakura is already troublesome enough, not to mention that there is a Oda incense who works for Yi, and now there are still unknown masters watching from the side, and the situation is not good.
Still unable to figure out how to deal with it, Kaede, who was fighting fiercely with Oda Xiang on the other side, didn't know what trick he had hit, and suddenly the whole person was bounced away and flew towards this side.
(This little banshee usually mixes so well with Feng'er, and she is so vicious when she shoots!)
Lancelot originally thought that judging from the situation of Sojiro and Feng'er getting along and hiding, Feng'er would not suffer much damage even if she was defeated, but looking at Feng'er's urgency to fly upside down, if she didn't help her unload, Jiucheng would be injured under this blow.
Who knows, just about to pick it up, suddenly a flower in front of him, the feeling of starting is completely wrong, although the force of the collision is very urgent, but the weight makes Lancelot alert. Knocking Feng'er into the air, and then passing Feng'er with a high-speed body method, and crashing into Lancelot's side, such a speed is exactly Jiuyao's best skill. It's also thanks to Lancelot's quick reaction, and when he was busy, he made a mistake with both hands, and he was about to push away Oda Ka, who took advantage of the sneak attack.
It's just that although the reaction can be called timely, this inhuman opponent is not something that normal tricks can deal with.
As before, Lancelot's palm was strong, and Odaka's body suddenly became weak, and this time at close range, she could see more clearly, her whole person was like a big eraser, leaning over and wrapping around Lancelot's wrists.
Not only was it soft and boneless, but from the small hands that were wrapped around his arms several times, Lancelot clearly felt that although his skin was smooth, these hands had no bones at all. It is impossible for any pair of hands with bones to do such a curling.
Weak and powerless, it is reasonable to say that it is impossible to pose any threat to Lancelot, but when the other party also uses the strong heavenly power to suppress him, he has been lucky several times in a row, but he can't break free of the hands that make him unable to move.
The two were at a stalemate, and Izumi Sakura had already been killed, and he stabbed Lancelot in the back of the heart with a shake of his hand.
"Stop!"
At the last moment, Feng'er had already stopped the decline and arrived in time, and the lightsaber in his hand swung sharply to open the dragon spear. Feng'er also found that Izumi Sakura's blazing fighting spirit was extremely unusual, if she attacked her vital point, I was afraid that she would not take it seriously at all, and swung her lightsaber at the dragon spear, hoping to set up the spear of Longji Crossbow.
It's just that doing so is tantamount to a frontal hard block, and for Feng'er, it is very unwise to hit it hard, because when the explosive strength on the dragon spear has the ability to threaten the strong heavenly master, this shot is not something that the small heavenly level can resist.
The silent loud noise shook everyone's senses, and under the full operation of the Canglong Mental Method, even the explosion that should have been deafening was hidden, leaving only a powerful shock wave to stir around. Feng'er and Izumi Sakura bore the brunt, both of them bursting with tiger mouths, and there was a burst of red on their wrists.
As before, Izumi Sakura didn't slow down in the slightest because of the pain, and immediately regained her breath and stabbed Lancelot in the back with another shot.
is not good at internal strength, and after being forced to take the shot, Feng'er's arms were almost so painful that she couldn't lift them, but when she saw Izumi Sakura make a move, she also gritted her teeth, and a dark purple flame rippled out from the lightsaber, flying around, and she blocked the dragon spear.
There was a fierce fight over there, and Lancelot was naturally not idle here. He cheered up several times in a row, but he couldn't shake Oda Xiang's clamp lock, and the strength that erupted out was like a mud cow entering the sea, and it couldn't have the slightest effect.
Oda Ka's face still has such a strange expression, not happy because of the success of the attack, not anxious because it is difficult to win, compared to Izumi Sakura's abnormally strong fighting spirit, she is unusually calm, there is no murderous spirit, no fighting spirit, not even the slightest emotional reaction, I can't see that she is a person in a fierce battle.
(It's like my brother-in-law, but there's something wrong with it...... )
The thought crossed Lancelot's mind, and before he could conclude it, he felt a sudden pain in his hand, and he was surprised that his enemy had changed his attack.
(This little banshee, use the Heavenly Demon Skill to deal with me?!)
The two limbs are entangled, this is indeed a good opportunity for the Heavenly Demon Gong to exert its might, as long as the reaction is a little late, it will be eroded to nothing in the blink of an eye, Lancelot hurriedly urged the Heavenly Demon Gong, and before the other party absorbed the alien energy into the body, they resisted with the same strength, and the two of them were shocked, and they fell into a stalemate again.
However, despite not falling behind in the situation, Lancelot's composure is far inferior to that of his opponent. The sound of the wind behind him and the incessant heat wave were reminding him that a deadly dragon lance was coming at any time, and he was more worried about Feng'er's safety than the danger of being attacked.
Quan Ying, Feng'er, the gap between the two women's martial arts at the moment, Lancelot is clear, if it weren't for Quan Ying's main target, Feng'er only needs to block from the side, no need to attack and defend head-on, against the explosive force, the victory or defeat would have been separated within the first three shots.
This kind of thing, Feng'er knows it in her heart. I heard that the dragon clan's magic has the effect of devouring human flesh and blood, but fortunately I didn't encounter it this time, otherwise it would definitely be more difficult for me to deal with. I had hoped to come and stop this battle, at least to stop Lord Lancelot a little, lest Kosojiro beat him to death, but I didn't know that after coming here, I would see such a situation. I didn't see Sojiro, but it was Princess Oda Xiang who took action personally.
Oda Xiang's martial arts are much stronger than Sojiro's, especially the strong heavenly power that exceeded her expectations, if it weren't for the mercy of her subordinates, she would have been defeated miserably under Jiuyao's extreme speed, however, since the situation has evolved like this, her position is also very clear, that is, to help Lord Lancelot get out of trouble.
Miss Izumi Sakura in front of her is obviously under control. A dignified dragon patriarch actually went to a foreign country and became a tool for killing, which did make Feng'er feel a kind of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox, but he was obviously at a disadvantage and was not qualified to sympathize with the other party.
After blocking a few more shots, the situation on Feng'er's side was even more unbearable, the flames on the lightsaber were dim, and the internal force was exhausted; the two arms were like being pierced by ten thousand needles, and the pain was so painful that they couldn't lift up, and under the continuous heavy blows of the guns that burned the city, it seemed that even the fingers looked a little twisted. Obviously, there was no way for her to stop Izumi Sakura anymore...... But compared to this, what hit her harder was Izumi Sakura's situation.
At the same time, she also suffered a considerable backlash, and with dozens of moves with Lord Lancelot before, Izumi Sakura's injuries would only be more serious than herself, but she didn't flinch at all, fighting regardless of life and death. The right hand tied to the barrel of the gun could no longer see the shape except for a blood-red ribbon, and was shocked, but why could she not do what she could do?
The incompetent guard has no value in existence, and when he can no longer protect Lord Lancelot, this woman named Cangyue Feng will have no meaning to continue to exist.
Half out of the urgency of the master's relief, half of the hatred of self-powerlessness, when Izumi Sakura shot at Lancelot again, Feng'er put away her sword and returned to her waist, took a sharp breath, reversed her own internal breath, and suddenly a series of bone explosions sounded all over her body, and with a raised arm, a purple fireball the size of a skull, suddenly turned in her palm, shining brightly, like a condensed little sun, bursting with amazing light and heat.
The fourth type of the Oriental Liuyang Zunjue, brilliant in this life, performed in the hands of Bai Qi that day, once beat Lancelot and Feng'er to the death, after the end of the Reyns Civil War, Feng'er learned this skill, but also by the teacher told him, the last three tricks of the Liuyang Zunjue, according to legend, is the Huang Taiji by the evolution of the world's dominant style, itself is not suitable for the use of small heavenly masters, if you reluctantly do it, it is very likely to become a self-sacrifice technique.
Feng'er didn't know this, but since his martial arts couldn't match his opponent's, he couldn't lose in his fighting spirit. If you are timid because of scruples and do not do what you should do, then you will never forgive yourself for your incompetence in this battle in this life.
"What the hell, a bunch of crazy women!"
Seeing the changes in all directions, Lancelot was almost shocked. The style of "Splendid This Life" does have the powerful power of the frontal hard burning city gun, but just looking at the corner of Feng'er's mouth and the appearance of wisps of green smoke starting to rise from her delicate body, you know that she is just barely supporting, when the scorching sun fireball expands from her hand, it will immediately swallow her into it, maybe it will not support it at all, and it will burst out of the meridians and become flying ashes.
"Hey, goblin, you're ......"
If you continue to entangle with Oda Xiang, then you can't do anything, Lancelot has a glimmer of hope, thinking that Oda Xiang has a relationship with Feng'er after all, maybe he can move her, temporarily stop fighting, and let himself save Feng'er, who knows that before he finished speaking, this little beauty has withdrawn, unfolded Jiuyao Extreme Speed, and disappeared.
(Strange woman, what a fucking little banshee...... )
I don't know the situation, but now that he can get out, Lancelot will do his best to resolve the situation that must be a lose-lose situation.
First, he flew over, snatched it between Feng'er and Quan Ying, and the machine-gun momentum of the nuclear fusion fist, the finger fist shot out like a bullet, hitting Feng'er's chest and abdomen, blocking the operation of her qi veins, preventing her from continuing to urge her true qi, and then turning into soft force, and pushing her out of the sealed acupoint.
Feng'er flew back and got out of danger, but the fireball of the sun that had been thrown out of her hand and was almost completed suddenly swelled sharply, like a blazing star falling from nine heavens, smashing towards Lancelot.
If it was normal, Lancelot could have broken it before it increased, but now it was a step too late, and he could only turn around sharply at the moment, with all his strength on his back, and he wanted to protect his body with a strong heavenly position, and force this blow hard.
"Boom~~"
In the loud noise, the scorching sun fireball illuminated the entire sky as bright as day, and it could be seen clearly within hundreds of miles, and Lancelot, who was facing the impact head-on, was even more uncomfortable, his back was scorched, and the pain seemed to be burning, the only thing that was fortunate was that the strength of the strong heavenly position was indeed strong, such a heavy blow, but it could not damage the muscles and bones, as long as he waited for a while to transport the ether immortal body, it was estimated that it was just a moment of breathlessness, and he could recover.
However, the enemy will not give him such a respite.
Just when Lancelot was trying his best to resist the scorching sun behind him, and he had no time to care, a beautiful fairy shadow suddenly appeared in front of him.
It was Izumi Sakura, as well as her Burning City Spear, at this most critical moment, killing quickly and violently, the tip of the spear pointed directly at the enemy's chest, Canglong Jue, Burning City Gun, and Longji Ballista's Spear, the three were used in one, and they were used with all their might.
Even a master like Lancelot can't afford this kind of consumption. First spent a lot of energy, without hurting the flesh, and tried his best to resist the scorching sun behind him, when this burning city stabbed at a gun, he had no way to dodge or block at all except for barely condensing some true qi to protect his body, just watching, watching the spear of Longji Crossbow pass through his chest.
The glowing white iron spear head, with a large rain of blood, burst out from behind Lancelot, and immediately evaporated the unexhausted scorching sun energy.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the dragon lance penetrating the body, the Burning City Spear erupted violently, severely damaging Lancelot. However, the strength of the strong heavenly protective body is indeed strong, and in such a situation, not only does it keep its limbs intact, but it also faintly emits a countershocking force.
Izumi Sakura, who was completely controlled by battle instinct, didn't feel surprised, but after confirming that such a shot could not control the enemy's death, her arm twitched, and the dragon spear swirled out, and another shot hit the enemy's head.
It's just that just before the dragon lance was about to touch Lancelot's body, Izumi Sakura's delicate body shook violently, a pair of focused eyes burning with blazing battle intent, flashed a look of confusion, sadness, and pain, and the hand holding the gun trembled uncontrollably......
Lancelot turned a blind eye to all these struggles. Although he didn't actually stab it, the energy emitted by the dragon lance still made him have a splitting headache, and a hot blood stained his eyebrows.
Intense pain, as well as a very familiar shame and anger, rushed to the brain along with the chaotic qi and blood in the body. Although he has become very strong, the moment he broke into the body of this gun, the memory of the fiasco on the dry ear mountain that day screamed in his mind like a shout.
Not only that, but there are also some chaotic images that keep passing through my mind. The image is very messy, I can't tell a rough idea, but in a trance, such a picture seems to have existed, vaguely like this, I was injured in the hands of this woman, I was lying on the ground panting, she stepped on her chest, and said contemptuous words with disdain on her face......
And when these pictures flashed in front of his eyes, one after the other, Lancelot's heart was silent, and he couldn't hear any sound in his ears, and then, like a fire depot that had been lit up, Lancelot exploded!
Because of an emotion that even she couldn't say, Izumi Sakura not only couldn't do it, but even gradually regained her senses and got out of her original state of confusion, however, just before she was fully conscious, the man who was hit hard by her suddenly launched a counterattack like a vicious beast that had been gathering strength for a long time.
The form of the counterattack was very peculiar, Lancelot turned his head suddenly, flashed the dragon spear in front of him, and followed closer, the speed was so fast, and the distance between the two was originally close, so he immediately bullied Izumi Sakura and grabbed her shoulders.
"Hmm!"
There was no time to do anything, and the man kissed her soft lips the moment he got closer.
Izumi Sakura's eyes widened, as if she were a frightened young bird, and her body, which had been trembling, suddenly stiffened, and she did not obey the call at all.
This kiss is very rough. Izumi Sakura, who originally wanted to dodge sideways, suddenly felt a pain in her lips, but she had been bitten by the other party, and the hot, salty smell suddenly overflowed her mouth. The blood from his own broken lips and the blood that the man coughed up from his serious injuries mingled silently.
Fishy, bitter, sweet, indescribable mixed taste, accompanied by warm heat, makes the brain groggy and completely unable to think.
It's just that the kiss didn't last long. Lancelot abruptly stopped kissing, bent widely, raised his head, and was followed by a blow of the head, the force of which was so heavy that he heard a muffled sound, and blood splattered from their foreheads at the same time.
"Ahh
How many times has Izumi Sakura been hit like this? Izumi Sakura had a splitting headache, tears flowed from her eyes, and her brain was so chaotic that she couldn't fight back at all, and she almost couldn't even hold the dragon spear in her hand. He wanted to break free, but his shoulders were firmly grasped by him, and the powerful absorbing demonic energy was endless, and he could only resist it with all his might, as long as he lost it, he would definitely be broken into pieces.
"Ha, happy girl, let's do it again!"
I don't know if it's really because of pride, Lancelot laughs wildly, and slams another hammer on Izumi's forehead. This time, he didn't grab her shoulders again, and hit her headbutt, knocking her out of the sky with no ability to fight back.
Solving Izumi Sakura, Lancelot didn't take a break to breathe, and in the midst of laughter, he had already found Oda Kata's location, and flew towards her.
Oda Ka leaned over and dodged away. Without using Jiuyao's extreme speed, her body was much slower, and compared with Lancelot, who was like a mad demon on the other side, the gap in speed between the two was narrowed, and they chased and fled, and they were soon stopped, and the battle broke out again.
Lancelot was unaware of the wound in his chest, and he didn't want to be immortal, he let the blood flow through his clothes, and with a wave of his arms, the strength of the Hongyi Sword surged towards the enemy like a wave, and with his own Heavenly Demon Strength, it was connected into a ring, and it looked even sharper.
Oda Xiang no longer used the Heavenly Demon Skill, and with a shake of her hand, the stunt Soul Suppression Sound Sword from Amakusa Shiro fought with the Hongyi Sword, and some of the knife power that burst to her side and danced wildly was used by her to use a mysterious technique, and she used her strength to fight with force, and then pushed it back, and then attacked Lancelot.
If it was not long ago, Lancelot would definitely be surprised by the Ziwei Xuanjian of the legendary Star Sage's divine skill, but he was very angry at the moment, no matter what purple and green Wei, at the same time as the second wave of Hongyi sword power was issued, ignoring Oda Xiang's sound sword sound wave, the whole person rushed forward, Ren Yin Sword cut his body, his arms shook, and another wave of Hongyi sword strength, layered with the previous wave, the power doubled sharply, and frantically swallowed towards Oda Xiang.
With such a strong move, Oda Xiang didn't dare to take it head-on, and as soon as he leaned over, he dodged away with Jiuyao's extreme speed, and it seemed that he had no hope of fighting at all.
Lancelot was about to take advantage of the victory, but suddenly felt a very strange fluctuation that woke up in his mind. He had already sensed that someone was watching the battle, just too busy dealing with the enemy in front of him to pay attention, but now, from the strange flow of energy in the atmosphere, he knew that the peeping person was about to take action.
Who is that person? Is Amakusa Shiro? Or is it the mysterious person who wants to kill Izumi Sakura that day? No matter which one it is, the other party is a master with strong heavenly power, and he must be prepared to fight against two strong heavenly masters.
Thinking like this, Lancelot still had an unspeakable worry, which was more unsettling than facing two strong heaven masters at the same time, which made him understand that the opponent's attack must be extraordinary. The question is, what kind of trick is that?
The answer came with the fluctuation of spiritual power, when Lancelot noticed that the enemy was directly below him and wanted to attack first, but suddenly found that his strength was draining.
Unlike being absorbed by the evil energy of the Heavenly Demon Gong, the reason why the power can't help but be lost at this moment...... It is because the surrounding heaven and earth vitality has undergone abnormal changes, and it is no longer combined with its own internal force, and it has turned into a heavenly power, resulting in a rapid loss of power in the body.
And to be able to achieve this effect, there is only one skill in the world, and that is known as the last weapon of the Magus against the Heavenly Rank Martial Artists, the Five Extremes Heavenly Style.
"Evil obstacles! With me here, I will never allow your demon fetus to be a disaster to the world, the last time you were lucky to get away, today is the time for you to fall under the law. ”
Before he could make a move, he was already a step too late, and eight gray dim lights and shadows appeared around him, forming a magic circle, trapping himself in it, and at the same time casting a spell like a lock spell, making him unable to move.
It's like the immovable spell that Xiaocao ordered the magic guide troops to cast on Amakusa that day, but at that time, it was necessary to mobilize two thousand magic guide troops to achieve the effect, but these eight people could easily do it, and they seemed to be at ease.
The voice was female, and all eight of them were dressed in the same way, wearing a gray cloak from hood to toe, and the faces could not be seen clearly, only the hands were exposed. Their age was evident from their claw-like shapes and wrinkled skin, and Lancelot recognized them, for four of them had fought against him at sea, turning themselves into such pig-headed dead old women.
"Dead old woman, you ......"
It's not a good time to swear. This spell in the body, he can untie it, as long as he has more time to accumulate strength and use the remaining heavenly power to break it, this spell can't help himself, the problem is that these eight old women will definitely not give themselves a chance, the reason why they have delayed until now to show up must be that they have just lurked on the ground, recited the spell, and prepared to cast the spell, and then appeared to launch the final blow.
How powerful is the Five Extremes Heavenly Style? Although Lancelot had never suffered it personally, at that time, Xiaocao cut through the space with a style of "Boat Spike Moon", and almost killed the invincible Amakusa Shiro on the spot, but this scene was witnessed by him, and he knew that if the sword of the shattered space was cut on himself, he would only die a tragic death on the spot. Although he knew that the catastrophe was coming, he couldn't undo the curse on his body for a while, and he couldn't move, so he could only watch the wind around him, and the dark aura became thicker and thicker, and he cursed loudly in his heart.
The situation is critical, but Lancelot is not without help.
Previously hit Lancelot's penetrating bone sealing hole, it took Feng'er a while to unravel, and when she saw that her master was in danger, she was so anxious that she rushed over to rescue her with a lightsaber.
According to common sense, attacking a mage is the only way to break the magic, however, the cultivation of these eight mage elders is extremely superb, and they can resist it while casting spells and preparing the five extreme heavenly forms. The flames and electric light forced Feng'er to be unable to get close, and the interference effect of the Five Extremes Heaven Style also appeared on her, not to mention the luck of killing the past, it was even difficult to continue to float in the sky. This is a long time, a short distance, but it can't be overcome.
(What to do?what now?!)
In a hurry, Feng'er only thought of one idea, and immediately flew a long distance, followed and rushed forward, regardless of the pain of fire and electric phagosomes, the whole person turned into an arrow and crashed into Lancelot who was trapped in the magic circle.
Seeing Feng'er bumping into her, Lancelot didn't understand her mind. She was planning to knock herself out of the magic circle, and as for what would happen to her trapped in the magic circle after knocking herself out, she didn't care about it completely.
Looking at Feng'er who bumped into her with all her might, Lancelot was moved, but when he found out that the eight old women had deliberately opened a crack in the encirclement net so that Feng'er could rush in, he secretly screamed that it was not good.
In an instant, all directions were shrouded in the roaring dark aura, and the feet of the two suddenly emptied, and the space within a radius of ten zhang turned into a bottomless deep hole, and the violent hurricane caused a powerful attraction, sucking all the objects above into it.
Although it hit Lancelot, it was pulled by a strong suction, and Feng'er could only knock the person away slightly, and then it was pulled down.
In his busy schedule, Lancelot only had time to reach out and pull Feng'er's arm and pull her into his arms.
"Feng'er, you ......"
It's too late to say anything more, but the two pairs of eyes that meet each other reveal each other's hearts.
The dimensional rift caused by the "Star Gate" emitted a powerful suction, but in the short moment when the two of them tried to resist, for an incomprehensible reason, a warm feeling enveloped Lancelot and Feng'er, forming a faint layer of crystal white light outside the body.
It was like a shield, but in the face of the terrifying suction force below, the effect of this shield was too small, but with a flick of their fingers, they lost their form and fell down.
Hugging each other tightly, the two of them were sucked into the space-time vortex below, and in the fierce rotation, they turned into a small dot in the depths and disappeared.

In the early morning of June 12, 568 in the Altino calendar, the series of battles that took place in Kyoto, Japan, was called the "Ikedaya Incident" by the intelligence network of the Continent of the Whole Wind.
In order to sweep away the rebel party lurking in Japan with bad intentions, the new writing team responsible for guarding the security of Kyoto arrested the rebel Shuntaro Kotaka and tortured him about the plot of the rebel party, and after the evidence was conclusive, he launched a surprise attack with an iron fist.
Led by Sojiro Okita, the leader of the Ichiban team, the Shinsho team attacked Ikedaya, where the rebels lived, and killed a group of rebels who were discussing a rebellion by surprise, causing heavy casualties.
Soon after, the news spread in several metropolises of the Wind Continent, however, since Japan had no contact with the countries of the Wind Continent, and the official announcement did not mention the word Reins, it was only treated as a civil strife in the country, so the news was only mentioned in a small corner of a few newspapers, and it was only left in people's impressions that there was a rebellion in an overseas island country, and the name of Sojiro Okita.
But at the decision-making level of several major powers, the news came as a shock to them. Although not every organization fully understands the inside story of this war, whether it is Free City or Altinor, they have already learned about the strength of the Lord of Reyns through different channels.
The strong celestial power, a strongman comparable to the three great divine swords, was actually defeated miserably without Amakusa Shiro participating in the war, and his whereabouts are unknown, which shows that Japan has a strength that should not be underestimated, and it is a force worthy of wooing or attention.
Reins, who knew the beginning and the end of the Ikedaya affair best, was inevitably in chaos.
"In less than a year, there will be two national funeral ceremonies, which is really a waste of money and labor, and there are still any people who are scheduled to receive white envelopes this year? ”
Bai Wuji, the right prime minister who took charge of the Reins regime and provoked the country's annual budget on his shoulder, said lightly when he received the news that Lancelot was missing and the left prime minister was arrested by mistake.
Although the soldiers of the Bai family who were lurking in Kyoto suffered heavy casualties in the Ikedaya incident, a considerable number of them managed to escape due to Lancelot's rescue, and after going to other cities, they contacted the head of the family and reported it.
"What a bunch of white garbage. Your existence is supposed to be self-sacrificing and covering the leader's escape, how can you sacrifice the leader and let your group of things escape? Abandon the commander and flee, and the whole team sits together, why don't you buy a Japanese sword and forget about seppuku on the spot?"
Facing Bai Lanxiong in front of the screen, Bai Wuji's face was not good, and his voice was even colder.
In fact, this is not entirely true, because in the history of the Bai family, there are really many leaders of the Bai family who covered the escape of their subordinates and killed themselves on the battlefield, but that is just a statement that the effect is the cause. The truth of the matter is that there are always a few war-hungry leaders in each generation, because they have fought on the battlefield, and before they even think of fleeing, they have killed the past and died with the enemy, shouting that they are happy, and their subordinates have escaped because of this.
"Forget it, I didn't expect anything from you anyway, I assigned you to be promoted to the commander of Kyoto affairs, and I just took a fancy to your white rotten male every time you were defeated on Alcatraz Island, even if the whole army was wiped out, you could still survive the blessing, from the results of this time, this personnel plan is not completely wrong, you organize the remnants, wait for my further orders." ”
As if extremely annoyed, Bai Wuji waved his hand to cut off contact with his subordinates, turned on another screen, and talked to the informant.
It is true that Bai Lanxiong was blessed and survived the Ikedaya incident with serious injuries, but no matter how lucky he was, he was unable to participate in the Heavenly Position Battle, and it was impossible for him to know the story of Lancelot's battle with Oda Xiang, so the detailed process of this battle was reported by another informant.
Knowing that the process of this battle was a strange thing, this informant, who was trying to open up a new source of wealth, immediately sorted out a written report with his not very neat writing, and after confirming that the other party was willing to buy it at a high price, he sold this report to Bailu Cave, Qinglou, and Reins at the same time...... and other major forces.
And as he expected, the second young man of the Bai family is worthy of Kaizi, who has no place to spend it, and after reading the written report, he added money and asked for an oral report.
"It's okay, don't talk nonsense, let's get to the point, how did my cheap brother-in-law end up this time?"
"Huh, my written report should have been clearly written, haven't you read it?"
I don't know if it's acting, Han Te on the other end of the electronic screen has a very surprised expression.
"Lao Tzu is rich, he is too lazy to read the report, and he likes to listen to people, can't he? Besides, you are so insidious, how do I know if there is something in this report that is not clearly stated, and you deduct the information and sell it for the second time?"
Putting aside the master-employment relationship, the two brothers of the Bai family are really Han Te's confidants, and they guessed the truth.
His inner plan was shattered in one word, and Han Te was not ashamed, and recounted in detail the various scenes he had witnessed.
Recently, there is no business to take, except for working as a high-priced transporter for Bai Wuji, going back and forth between Reines and Japan, and occasionally supervising the movements of various forces in Kyoto City, so he saw the complete process of this battle.
"Anyway...... Midway...... Say it's too late, then it's too soon...... Between lightning and fire...... I would have guessed...... But I didn't expect it...... Because...... So...... The result becomes...... The three women and one man, Hu Tianhudi, and later eight more old women went to the sea together, and they ran into the fire with dry firewood......"
Han Te recounted, and even compared with the talk, Bai Wuji probably understood the whole thing.
"Well, in general, I understand, your eloquence is getting more and more advanced, and if you don't do delivery in the future, you can go to the free city to tell stories, and you won't starve to death. Bai Wuji shook his head and said, "But I have a little problem, when you see that the fight over there is so fierce, won't you want to help? With your current martial arts, if you make a secret move, the outcome of this battle may be different." With the relationship between you and me, as long as you make a move, I will definitely increase the honorarium. ”
"Go, I'm just a delivery person, do you think I'm the boss of your family? A few guys over there are either strong heavenly positions, or they are holding divine weapons, and I am a small heavenly position with broken copper and iron, don't you go over there to find death?"
Han Te snorted: "Your surname Bai is usually so insidious, your brother-in-law is not a good thing, it is difficult to say whether he will owe money and not pay afterwards, maybe that big pig's head will push me and let me take more than eighty shots for him in the melee, and he can even rely on the pension afterwards." ”
The cooperation between them is not based on integrity, and Bai Wuji is also related to Hante's words.
"And, seeing the kind of battle that the last eight old women put up, I would rush over and be an idiot. ”
From Lancelot's shout, Hunter, who was peeking from a distance at the time, knew the gender and age of the eight gray-robed men, and even though he had limited knowledge of magic, he probably guessed what Lancelot had encountered based on various clues.
"I really didn't expect that there would be such a powerful magister in Japan, and this is the first time I've seen this thing with my own eyes......"
"Well, even if you say that, I guess that's right. ”
Hastily ending the conversation with Hante, Bai Wuji turns on another screen to confirm with a woman who has been listening to his conversation with Hante.
"What do you think?"
"Just like you think, it's the Gate of the Stars in the Five Extremes Heavenly Style. ”
Even a cold personality like Hua Bian Que, who was indifferent to everything, had a shaken expression when he mentioned the Five Extremes Heavenly Style.
One of the legendary Five Pole Heavenly Forms, the Gate of Stars, is to use a huge amount of energy to open the barrier of another dimension, discard the enemy to another dimension, no matter how strong the enemy is, once it is sucked in, it can only do an almost eternal drift in the other space, until it encounters a space-time gap that is only one in tens of millions of light years.
Bai Wuji and Hua Bian Que are both experts in magic, and by speculation, they have already imagined this type of horror, and from each other's silent looks, they have the same answer.
"I don't want to admit it, but it seems to be really the Five Extremes Heavenly Style, and if this idea is correct, then ......"
"If you have a fasting position...... No, I think only the Heavenly Rank cultivator can be sure to escape from this formula, although your monkey boss has always been lucky, but if he is really sucked into the Gate of the Stars, then, I think you can start preparing for the state funeral...... In addition, two people have died in a row within a year, and it is best to consider changing the feng shui pattern of the ivory white tower. ”
There is almost no friendship with Lancelot, even if he thinks in his heart that he is finished, Hua Bian Que still has an extremely indifferent expression. However, even Bai Wuji can't be sure that after confirming that her junior sister Feng'er was martyred together, has there been any change in this woman's heart?
The conversation between the two sides came to an end, and Bai Wuji sorted out the information at hand and made the final conclusion.
Judging from various judgments, it should be a dead end. Being sucked into a different space, in that environment where I don't know what kind of environment it is, there may be no air, or there may be high pressure or violent temperature difference that even the heavenly masters can hardly resist, ordinary people may be finished the moment they are inhaled, even if they can keep themselves immortal for a while with their strong skills, how long can they last?
In another space, time and distance are meaningless, drifting almost eternal, thousands of years, thousands of years may not be able to meet a realm exit, even if there is an exit, it may not be able to return to this world, not to mention that there are not so long-lived people in the world, and after tens of millions of years, they will drift out of fossils or dried corpses.
I don't know much about the other space, after all, my martial arts are not high enough to have this honor, and let people use the Five Extremes Heavenly Style to deal with themselves. Everything I know is based on some reports that I have read when the Institute of Science and Technology was conducting theoretical research on the confined space in the past.
It's just that it's really strange, obviously these two people are dead, why do they always have a feeling that it's not a big deal? Is it because of any possibility, will they survive?
Unable to think of it, Bai Wuji decided to postpone the announcement of the news. After all, if His Majesty the King dies like this, not only will there be chaos in the country, but there will also be chaos on the side of the Taiyan Academy, and I don't want to spend more time explaining until the facts have been confirmed.
Thinking of having to explain, another thing is the real trouble.
Bai Wuji shook his head, leaving the secret room full of ancient magic instruments and a large screen wall in front of him, and walked down to another layer of deeper secret room.
The prayer tower in the center of the ivory white pagoda, in addition to the peak is the prayer room used by the queens for retreat, there are also buildings underground, which gathers the cold qi of the nine places, which is convenient for another kind of practice, and the grass is closed here.
How to tell a woman that her husband is dead? This is indeed a difficult problem, but he can't excuse himself, because he knows that Liya is the only person who cultivates here, and he can't even find a substitute for the dead who wants to shirk the responsibility.
Knocked on the door twice, but there was no response, knocked on the door twice, but still didn't get a response, when Bai Wuji sensed that something was wrong, pushed open the wooden door protected by the spell, but looked at an empty secret room in surprise.
Nothing...... It's been empty for a long time.
※※※
In Kyoto City, Izumi Sakura slowly regained her senses.
She only had a vague impression of everything just now, and it was not clear. I vaguely remember that I fainted in front of my husband, and my whole body was in pain, and when I had the impression again, I was in the air, holding a dragon spear, and my husband was in front of me, and there was a bloody hole in my chest, and I looked at the wound, as if it was hit hard by myself.
Everything happened in a mess, and I couldn't figure it out, so I was stupid by everything I touched.
followed, it was the kiss, and two consecutive head hammers. The already chaotic brain was even more dizzy and unable to stand, and he fainted on the ground.
In the haze, only some scenes were seen intermittently. The husband and another woman, hugged each other tightly, and were swallowed up by a big black hole, although they felt anxious, they were powerless and couldn't do anything.
After that, I saw that the little princess Oda Kata was talking to someone, and the other party was eight old women in gray robes, and for some reason, I had an unspeakable uneasy feeling about them.
“...... This time, we were able to successfully destroy the demon barrier, thanks to the contribution of Her Royal Highness the Princess, so that we were able to achieve success in one fell swoop. ”
"The Kunlun secret method of the eight elders is really eye-opening, being able to destroy the demon fetus is a blessing for me in Japan, but in the end, it seems to have changed a little, it is ......"
"I'm ashamed to say it, that's a great shame for my Kunlun Mountain, due to our improper supervision, there was a traitor who ate inside and out, and he actually did something at this time, but His Highness doesn't need to worry, the creature that was thrown into the gate of the stars has never had a chance to survive, and since we saw it, we will naturally clean up the portal and prevent the traitor from having another chance to make trouble. ”
The old woman and Oda Ka were talking in the sky, and Izumi Sakura seemed to understand it, but she was worried in her heart, and then she fainted due to the attack of her injury, and when she woke up, she was already here.
Barely calming down her chaotic thoughts, Izumi pondered everything that had happened. Although she has lost her past knowledge and memories, she has never been stupid, but because of her simple thinking, she can point to the center of things.
Like now, although I can't say it very clearly in terms of management, but I feel that there is one thing that must be done, which is to get out of here.
The little princess Oda Xiang rescued herself twice, she shouldn't be a bad person, but she is now giving herself a very weird feeling, and it is better to keep a distance from her before she completely figures it out.
"Did I stab the man in the chest? I hope not, how could I have done so much? But the wound seems to be ...... Woo woo, don't, if it was really me who did it, I would definitely be beaten all over my teeth this time......"
Thinking of her husband's violent tendencies and the spicy hand she used to smash herself, Izumi felt that her future was bleak, but what kind of magic trick was that trick he had made?
I didn't know before, I didn't have anything to say, but now that I know that I have a husband, and he is in danger, I can't say anything about it when I sit here and watch.
Even if you really slap him several times in a row in a row after meeting him, and knock out all the teeth in his mouth, then he can only admit it. The husband and wife were originally birds of the same forest, and since he had something, he had to do something anyway.
The little princess Oda Xiang is not here, and it is not difficult to leave here, Izumi Sakura took a few breaths, let the inner breath stabilize, and left this stone house as soon as she got dressed.
The guards in Kyoto Castle are too far away from her, but because her injuries have not healed, she still needs to be careful in her actions.
As she was about to leave the city, Izumi heard the guards talking, and the leader of the rebels, Shuntaro Kodaka, was now being placed in the city and guarded ......

Because of the turmoil caused by the Ikedaya incident, a fever is continuing in various places. In addition to Reins, the Qinglou Alliance, which has a pervasive intelligence network, should be the organization that has the clearest grasp of the whole thing.
Taking the initiative to provide information to various high-ranking guests is one of the main reasons why many strange people are willing to work for the Qinglou Alliance, however, how much to leak this information has put the Qinglou principals in an extremely difficult struggle.
For her, the idiot king called Lancelot is really the source of trouble, after the last civil war, she beat Shangri-La's No. 1 red star Leng Mengxue to a serious skip work, if the news of the accident in Japan this time spreads, then the "Dream Geometry" duet that was finally picked up may have an accident again.
However, considering Nier's fierce personality, she still canceled the idea of blocking the news, after all, if Nier knew about it afterwards, when her brother died, she continued to sing on stage because she didn't know anything, she would definitely hold a grudge and seek revenge from Qinglou.
is just a small position, and the Qinglou Alliance doesn't take it seriously, but, privately, she hopes to maintain a good relationship with this girl, on the other hand, Cang Yuefeng, who is like half a sister and a daughter, has an accident in Japan, which also makes her a little unbreathable.
After her ruling, the report of the Ikedaya incident was delivered to Nil, and as expected, it didn't take long for Nier, who was resting to prepare for tomorrow's performance, to begin packing her bags without saying a word.
There was no yelling, demolishing the house and destroying things, which may be seen as the growth of Miss Yamamoto, however, the evil aura emanating from her body when she was silently packing her luggage made everyone around her feel her determination and did not dare to try to stop it.
"Brother, he...... I absolutely don't believe in such a thing, I'm going to go to Japan to see ...... for myself."
Quickly prepare everything, and after Nier confesses to the Qinglou side, she is about to set off, however, Gengoro, who is usually inseparable from her, shrugged at this time and said that he had no intention of accompanying him.
"I'll catch up soon, but not now, I still have some things to deal with here in the Qinglou Alliance, so Miss Nill will take the lead. ”
Knowing the trouble caused by her willfulness, Nier understands that Gengoro must stay and assist Qinglou in dealing with the aftermath, after all, the two red stars who are performing disappeared together, and Qinglou did not issue a chase and kill order, which is already very face-saving, and set off alone at the moment.
It's just that she didn't know that the reason why Gengoro stayed was not for the Qinglou Alliance, but for a commission from the other side.
At the same time that Niel receives the report of the Ikedaya incident, Gengoro, who is adjusting his musical instrument, also receives a heart-to-heart communication, which is a kind of telepathic magic, and the two sides get in touch across the distance, and the other party also asks for help.
"Do you want my help? Why? You know almost everything about what I know, with the help of Teacher Merlin, what magic can't be cast by you, the chairman of the Wizard Guild, and ask me to help?"
"If it were in the current world, I would work together with Teacher Mei Lin, and there would be almost no technical problems that could not be solved, but when it comes to unknown laws that are different from this time and space, our knowledge is insufficient, so we need your help. ”
"Well, that's not good, that sounds ...... It seems to be another loss-making deal that will cost half a person's life. ”
