Northwest of the flood rejection pass.

A two-ox chariot is flying and galloping, the two wheels are blazing, the hooves of the ox are stepping on the clouds, the giant man on the car is wearing heavy armor, and only a pair of round eyes are exposed all over the body, he holds a gold-ringed red rope in one hand, and a dragon-winding halberd in the other.

The giant man shouted like thunder, and with a wave of his halberd, the dragon swung its tail in mid-air and swept towards a white-clothed monk.

The white-clothed monk's mana was profound, and his body took advantage of the momentum to swing away, and he offered a jasper treasure vase, and the water of the ocean poured out, instantly covering several acres of square circles, and pressed towards the giant man.

"Carving insect skills!"

The giant man pulled the reins, did not dodge or dodge, and went straight up towards the flood tide falling from the sky, and the halberd in his hand stabbed straight forward, and suddenly became longer, like a god measuring the sky, and penetrated into the flood tide in one fell swoop.

"Broken!"

The halberd entered the flood, and the giant man rose up with shocking strength, and several acres of flood tide were cut from it, but the white-clothed monk was nowhere to be seen.

The divided flood tide instantly condensed into solid ice, and the two icebergs in mid-air suddenly closed, trying to crush the giant man and the two-ox chariot.

The giant man did not panic at all, and the halberd in his hand turned from rigid to soft, turning into a dragon, circling around the double ox chariot left and right, and everywhere he passed was a huge force. Only a series of crumbling sounds were heard, and the two icebergs were smashed into countless pieces of ice slag by the dragon, falling to the ground, like a dense hailstone.

"Fang Yuanzi, what other tricks do you have? Let's do it all! The halberd flew back into his hand, and the giant man looked into the distance, and saw the white-clothed monk looking south with a solemn expression.

The giant man was about to make a move, when the white-clothed monk turned his head and snorted coldly, "Your Huaxu Kingdom actually took in such a praise officer? It surprised me. ”

"Salute Officer?" The giant man didn't know why, but he also sensed a sudden change in the number of qi, and an unusual blood-red color even appeared in the southern sky, like a sunset.

"Huh? Want to go?! The giant man noticed that Fang Yuanzi was flying away, and was about to pursue, when the other party came from afar: "Liang Leopard, instead of rushing to fight, it is better to think carefully, can such a celebrant who has entered the law and mastered the cultivation of the law tolerate your brother?" ”

The giant man was silent for a moment, then snorted coldly, pulled the reins, and the two-ox chariot burst into flames, galloping towards the flood barrier on the ground.

When the chariot fell in front of the general's mansion, a group of generals and colonels stepped forward one after another, Liang Xiao held a blood halberd in his hand, and asked anxiously: "General, that Fang Yuanzi took the initiative to retreat?" What's going on? ”

Liang Bao stepped off the chariot and asked, "There is something big in the south, you don't sense it?" ”

The generals looked at each other, and Liang Xiao said: "I vaguely noticed the change in the qi engine, thinking it was wind and rain...... The recent major events in the south are nothing more than the war between the Wukui Army and the Jiuli Kingdom, could it be that there are unexpected variables? ”

Liang Bao snorted coldly: "Huaxu Country has produced a peerless master, and he even fights with the gods of the Southern Earth. ”

"Isn't it the first one?" Liang Xiao asked.

"Confused! Big brother does it, will I not be able to tell the difference? Liang Bao waved his hand away to drive everyone away: "You continue to guard everywhere strictly, since Fang Yuanzi is personally in danger, maybe it is to cover the spies to sneak in." Now that the Wu Kui army is at war with the Jiuli Kingdom in the south, it is impossible to be negligent in resisting the flood pass! ”

All the soldiers retreated, Liang Bao returned to the secret room in the house, urging the four rules mirror, and after a while, Liang Tao's face appeared in the mirror.

"Big brother! What happened to Pujiaguan? Liang Bao asked impatiently: "I sensed a sudden change in the number of qi in the south, and even the sky changed color!" ”

Liang Tao smiled faintly, his expression was as usual: "The little generation is a thief, there is nothing serious." ”

Liang Bao didn't understand, he thought about it, and he didn't know which young son of the Yongjia Liang clan could stir up the turmoil and change the color of the world.

"Just now, Fang Yuanzi, one of the four immortal princes of the Bear Country, came to tempt him, and I fought with him a few times, and before he left, he said that there was a salute official in the Huaxu Kingdom." Liang Bao was puzzled: "Didn't the last batch of praise officials die in the imperial capital in order to contain Xuanju?" When did Hua Xu have such a powerful character? ”

"Do you remember Zhao Xiao?"

"Is that him?" Liang Leopard's face was covered by an iron helmet, and only a trace of surprise could be seen from his eyes: "Liang Xiao once told me that this person is also a little capable." Big brother, you seem to have the heart to cultivate him? ”

"The great plan of the Taoist kingdom in the world fell on this person." Liang Tao said: "Now that the southern qi is agitated, it is he who is opening the altar to practice the law. ”

Liang Bao was stunned: "Impossible! Liang Xiao said that his cultivation was just condensing Xuanzhu, how could he have such mana? ”

"Naturally, you can't do it." Liang Tao explained: "In the past, the officials of the Tianxia Dynasty were known as the heart of heaven and earth, and their rituals and rituals were not based on the power of the immortal generals, but to try to measure, establish discipline, and clarify the order, so as to act on behalf of the heavens.

Although Tianxia is dead, the remnants of the praise officer are still alive. Moreover, the true form of the talisman seal that I cast in the leylines of several southern counties in advance was also connected by him at this moment, resetting the discipline and law between heaven and earth, and the work of the law was naturally powerful. ”

Liang Bao couldn't help but worry: "Big brother, is Zhao Xiao really credible?" ”

Liang Tao squinted his eyes and asked, "Did Fang Yuanzi say something?" ”

"Right...... He said that Zhao Xiao, as a praise official, may not be able to tolerate you, big brother. Liang Bao didn't hide it at all, but he was still worried: "But Zhao Huang was born in Huaiying Pavilion, how do you know that he is not secretly conspiring and calculating?" ”

Liang Tao said: "Don't worry, how can I be defenseless? Behind Zhao Xiao, there may also be immortal masters secretly fueling the trouble, and I have been trying. ”

"Do you know where the other party came from?" Liang Bao asked.

"It should be some ancient immortal family, but it's hard to figure out who it is." Liang Tao frowned slightly: "I suspect that even Zhao Xiao himself doesn't know the origin of the Immortal Family behind him." ”

"In that case, why do you want to keep Zhao Xiao?" Liang Bao simply said: "I will personally take him down, and directly use the soul hook rope to let him confess all the scientific rituals and rituals he knows!" ”

Liang Tao shook his head and said, "No, the ritual of the Praise Officer is not something that can be mastered by ordinary study alone. Especially with the improvement of Zhao Xiao's cultivation, the deeper the fit between his person and the law of heaven and earth. Not to mention whether the magic weapon of the soul hook can ask the corresponding thing, I am afraid that when you do it, it will immediately attract backlash. ”

Liang Bao was puzzled: "Can't you even do it, big brother?" ”

"I'm not going to take that risk." Liang Tao said: "You may not know that the gods of the southern soil have already taken advantage of Zhao Huang's opening of the altar to practice the law. They teamed up to summon a star from outside the sky, intending to destroy Zhao Xiao along with the entire Pujia Pass. As a result, the star backlashed back and fell directly into the depths of the southern earth. ”

Liang Bao was speechless for a while, pondering for a long time before asking: "With Zhao Xiao's cultivation, with the help of scientific rituals, he can actually compete with the gods of the Southern Land?" How is this possible? ”

"Why can't it?" Liang Tao looked ordinary and said with a smile: "I used to always ask you to read more books, but you didn't listen." The books in the library mention the deeds of the predecessors and the celebrants. If you really want to talk about personal cultivation, many Tianxia Dynasty praise officials are not necessarily better than Zhao Xiao, but they rely on scientific rituals and rituals to pass through the heavens and the earth and subdue the gods.

Since the moment Zhao Huang ascended the altar, he has not been alone, and the laws of heaven and earth are like the laws of the case. The gods of the southern soil are not self-sufficient, and they want to take the lead and commit crimes, which is destined to lead to annihilation, which is not even something that Zhao Xiao can decide. ”

"I always feel uneasy about such a powerful ritual being mastered by others." Liang Bao said.

Liang Tao said with a smile: "Zhao Xiao is a little cautious, but he is also shackled by hypocrisy and hypocrisy, and he is inevitably naïve and naïve. As long as this kind of person is allowed to give full play to his strengths and entertain himself, it is not difficult to control, and Yang Jingxi, the small lord of the country, also did this. ”

……

Dongshengdu, Qintiantai.

"The coma is rushing, and the sky is as red as blood, this is the disaster of the soldiers." Xin Taicheng looked at the southern sky with a complicated expression.

"Now that the two countries are fighting outside Pujia Pass, it is naturally a disaster of war." The lord flicked his sleeve: "But I want to know what is happening now." ”

Xin Taicheng bowed and saluted: "Back to Your Majesty, this kind of scene is exactly the southern earth demon god drumming turbidity and committing crimes against the sky, making the stars lose their degrees and attract gatherings." It is said that such calamities should directly attack the demon gods, but they blinded the heavens, causing the stars to fall obliquely and go to Pujia Pass. ”

Mrs. Zhu Zi, who was next to the lord of the country, couldn't help but look slightly shocked: "Such a star is flying, isn't Pujia Pass-"

"Mrs. Zhu Zi, rest assured." Xin Taicheng hurriedly said: "Weichen has been angry for a long time, and found that now the Marquis of Zhenming has opened the altar in Pujiaguan to practice the law. The Southern Earth Demon God summoned the stars and did not fall down the Pujia Pass, but counterattacked back. Now the blood is red for half a day, which is caused by the star falling into the depths of the southern soil, and the smoke and dust soaring into the sky. ”

The lord of the country who heard this was solemn and silent for a long time.

"Zhao Xiao?" Mrs. Zhu Zi exclaimed: "This son is proficient in rituals and rituals, and I have heard of it for a long time, but he can actually fight against the many demon gods in the southern land with the strength of one person?" ”

Xin Taicheng reminded: "When the Xingluo County Divine Sword was born, wasn't it Zhao Xiaoguang who set up an altar to control the edge of the Divine Sword? ”

Lady Zhu Zi said: "The Divine Sword of the Chaotic Party is nothing but killing lives, how can it be compared to the Flying Star Fall? If it is as red as blood today, you can imagine what a tragic situation it is in the depths of the southern soil. ”

Xin Taicheng pondered for a moment and said, "Zhao Huang is the descendant of the Tianxia Dynasty Praise Official. As far as Wei Chen knows, their rituals and rituals do have the ability to pass through the heavens and the earth. ”

Mrs. Zhu Zi laughed: "There are countless people who claim to have the ability to pass through the heavens and latitudes and the earth. ”

"What Weichen said is not a metaphor." Xin Taicheng said: "Jingtianwei and the earth are the foundation of the Tianxia Dynasty's praise officials, and they can even redefine the order of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers. ”

Mrs. Zhu Zi asked, "Oh? Could it be that he, Zhao Xiao, can still decide who will be the emperor? ”

The lord of the country frowned, Xin Taicheng knew that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately knelt down and said: "Weichen is talking nonsense, please ask Your Majesty to surrender." ”

"Aiqing doesn't have to be like this." The lord of the country raised his hand to help: "It's just that I don't understand, Zhao Huang has such extraordinary achievements, why don't you use it earlier?" ”

Xin Taicheng said cautiously: "The ritual and ritual affairs are already complicated, not to mention the Tianxia Dynasty Praise Official, if you want to go up to the heart of heaven and the people in the lower body, you must have a bright heart and no partiality.

The larger the pattern of ritual and ritual affairs, the wider the involvement, the deeper the requirements of the heart, before ascending the altar, not only to fast and bathe, but also to vow in the heart, if it does not work, never go down the altar. Now the scale of the Dharma is very large, and it is definitely not something that Zhao Xiao can use if he wants to.

What's more, the stars falling from the sky were originally the southern earth demon gods who gathered in vain, and Zhao Huang did not deliberately rebel against the stars. It's just the order of the number of qi, so that the star calamity that should have fallen on the head of the demon god will return to its place. ”

The lord nodded slowly, but his expression was still heavy.

After leaving Qin Tiantai, the lord of the country asked the rest of the people to leave, and Madame Zhu Zi immediately said, "Zhao Xiao is becoming more and more out of control. In Qingyan County before, he had already shown his wayward side. Now that he is on the altar and practicing the Fa, he has made such a disturbance, and he has not even told him in advance. If there is rebellion in the future, who can control it? ”

"Now that Zhao Huang is sitting in Pujia Pass, he will ensure that Wei Xiuwen has enough food and soldiers on the front line, and it is not appropriate to be deposed." The lord of the country looked to the south: "When the war is over, I will order him to return to Dongshengdu, and then consider how to deal with it." ”

……

Pujiaguan, the altar by the well.

Zhao Huang stood on the altar, his mind had reached the realm of selflessness, the aperture of his body was shining brightly, and his true qi was evacuated, but there was no danger of exhaustion, and in a trance, the hundred pulses of qi were full again, and he didn't know where it came from.

"Zhao Xiao, stop it! Are you going to die on the altar? ”

In the depths of the brain palace, Ling Xiao took the initiative to call, but found that Zhao Xiao did not respond, his soul seemed to have dissipated the heavens and the earth, and even the body standing on the altar was as light as a wisp of smoke, which was about to collapse at any time.

When Zhao Huang was about to dissolve, a hand gently patted him on the shoulder, making Zhao Huang wake up.

"Good work." An old voice sounded behind Zhao Xiao.

"Grandpa?" Zhao Huang was startled, he looked back, his grandfather Zhao Wei was behind him, and in the distance, there were thousands of celebrants of the Tianxia Dynasty.

The scene in front of him made Zhao Wei feel incredible, and Zhao Wei said: "You did a good job and did not insult your predecessors." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Xiao felt that years of hard work had finally paid off, first smiled slightly, and then tears burst out of his eyes, he cried and laughed, and couldn't say a whole sentence.

"The emperor is declining, the discipline has been broken, and you should make up for the sky with your body." Zhao Wei's voice gradually drifted away, and he said to Zhao Xiao: "Let's go first." ”

"Grandpa!" Zhao Wei stretched out his hand to save it, and found that his grandfather Zhao Wei had retreated to a very distant place almost in the blink of an eye, alongside the previous praise officials.

The salute officials bowed deeply to Zhao Xiao, and then turned into a little light, rushed to the sky, and disappeared.

"Grandpa!" Zhao Huang opened his mouth to call out, and found himself standing on the altar, his body heavy, not as light as Fang Cai.

"What's wrong with you?" Lingxiao asked.

"I—I saw my grandfather." Zhao Xiao's suspicion did not disappear, and wiped the tears on his face: "Didn't you see it?" ”

"You are the only one in the altar, and there is no other figure in the altar." Ling Xiao said more: "How can ghosts and souls invade the altar? I really didn't see your grandfather. ”

Zhao Xiao was still thinking about it, and Ling Xiao said, "Do you know that you almost died on the altar just now." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhao Xiao was puzzled: "I ...... I don't remember what I did while practicing the Dharma. After burning my watch, I felt like I was in a state of flux, completely unaware of the outside world. ”

"That's not a set." Ling Xiao paused word by word: "You are about to scatter your soul, and you are going to dissolve on the spot!" ”
