Chapter 33: Prelude to the Finale

The gears of fate never stop turning in the dark, assembling countless trajectories with the same destination. Everyone's life is playing out an inevitable play, and finally leaving a wonderful or regrettable ending when death is pronounced.

In the night, Taili Gate sits on the top of the cliff, like a lonely giant beast, looking down on the Taili Immortal City at its feet. The Taili Gate's Sect Protector Array reflected a blue-white luster in the moonlight, like an impregnable city wall. However, tonight, this six-hundred-year-old sect is destined to usher in a shattered end.

Meng Huzong has been in the world for a long time.

Meng Huzong's spies are like a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows of Taili Gate, waiting for the opportunity to attack.

Taili Gate is guarded day and night, after all, it is difficult to prevent thieves.

The sea of clouds on the cliff behind the Taili Gate rolls, like white peaks swaying in the wind. Liu Keqing of the Kendo Peak looked down at the sea of clouds, which seemed to be his fate, fickle, but also seemed to indicate the coming storm.

This Liu Keqing was also a cultivation genius of the hundred-year-old knot pill when he was young, and he fell in love at first sight with a female disciple of the Kendo Peak in the puppet spirit secret realm a hundred years ago.

But since he and the Taoist couple practiced here fifty years ago, the Taoist monk unfortunately fell off the cliff and died, he was deeply in self-blame and could not extricate himself, and he would come here every night to get drunk, and from time to time a person muttered to himself, crazy and so crazy that people did not feel sorry.

This is a well-known thing in Taili Sect, and the head Li Yao also talked to him and persuaded him to let go of the past and face the future, after all, the life span of immortal cultivators is long, but if it is really calculated, it is only two or three hundred years, this frequent guest Qing is young and promising, and he can still improve on the immortal road.

It's just, alas~ The infatuated lover is willing to suffer from this love.

Now he is a bad old man whose life is approaching, saying that he is a guest, but in fact, he is doing the work of a sweeper in Taili Gate, and this life is like this.

Meng Huzong has been in the world for a long time!

Liu Keqing's story may go back even further.

He was born in the territory of Meng Hu Sect, and he was an orphan who could not be buried without seeing his father and mother, but he was lucky to be detected by Meng Hu Sect and lived in Meng Hu Sect with a group of brothers and sisters who were sick and sympathetic.

Although Meng Hu Sect is a demon sect, it is also a place where rules are spoken, although the rules here are very cruel.

In the end, there were very few companions who could successfully succeed in the teacher with him, and they were all trained to be emotionless machines who only lived for the interests of the Meng Hu Sect.

He was born without a home, Meng Huzong raised him, and he spared no effort to repay the sect.

A hundred years ago, the puppet spirit secret realm was a trap, and he was the deadly bait.

After entering the Taili Gate, he gradually touched the inside and outside of the Taili Gate, the back mountain cliff here is steep, the formation layout is inconvenient, and the guards are the least, after all, there is a natural danger, and the sect also subconsciously ignores the precautions here.

Fifty years ago, it was not an accident at all, and Meng Huzong never did useless work.

Meng Huzong has an order that he will take the Yu Kingdom within a hundred years, and if he wants to swallow the Yu Country, he must first destroy the Taili Gate.

So, he personally knocked his Taoist companion off the cliff, and then pretended to be deeply saddened, waiting for today.

Although the mountain behind Taili Gate is a natural danger, it is only a matter of effort for the Fire Bone Lady in the infancy of the Yuan Dynasty.

The real trouble is the Taili Gate's Sect Protector Array, after the death of the previous head of the Immortal, Li Yao has continuously strengthened the Taili Gate's Sect Protector Array, even if the Yuan Infant is able to break into the formation, he will only be trapped and killed.

The sea of clouds is surging above, and so is the sea of clouds.

The dangerous cliff that Taili Gate ignored had long been marked by willow trees, which was the result of his fifty years of pretending to be crazy and stupid every night.

The Lady of Fire Bone followed the mark arranged by the willow leaf tree to the gap in the Taili Gate Protector Array, saying that the gap actually had a lost array.

After all, this is a cliff, you can only fly if you want to come up, and if you get lost in the air, the direction will be difficult to find, and if you are not careful, you will be trapped and killed here, falling into the abyss.

But the formations in other parts of the Taili Gate are all one ring after another, and there are many elders and disciples standing guard in turn, and forcibly breaking through will definitely be half the effort, and there is only one Lost Trace Formation here, and there are no guards, which can be said to be the most lax place in defense.

The black-robed Lady of Fire Bone easily entered the Taili Gate in this way, after all, she came to assassinate, and the red and bewitching outfit on weekdays was too ostentatious, not suitable for assassination operations.

And the willow leaf tree, who pretended to be crazy and stupid, naturally became the first ghost she slaughtered tonight.

After fifty years of agony and more than 18,250 nights of waiting, the willow tree finally ushered in liberation.

Lady Fire Bone was ruthless, and the techniques she cultivated were also extremely vicious, a move of Bone Burning Needle penetrated into the body of the willow leaf tree, and the fire poison instantly invaded into its bone marrow, and the ensuing scorching heat burned his internal organs, even the golden pill.

The most strange thing is that the skin of the willow tree is unharmed, but the eyes are full of fire, and the smell of burning is emitted from the whole body.

This is the secret technique of the Fire Bone Lady, the Fire Golem Technique.

Although it was only a remnant of the technique, the talented Fire Bone Lady improved it into a terrifying spell.

After being burned to flesh and blood, the person who has been poisoned by fire will retain their skeletal form, and the fire poison will fill the body, turning into a fire golem for the Fire Bone Lady to drive, and she can manipulate these golems at will to spread the fire poison or make it explode and self-destruct.

The most terrifying thing is that these fire puppets can be stored in storage rings, but the Fire Bone Lady is a Yuan Infant Monk who has lived for 300 years, and the reserves of fire puppets must be indispensable.

The moon is bright in the sky, and the fire in the mountains is swaying.

After all the peaks of the Taili Gate were arranged, the bewitching god of death finally revealed her sharpest sword.

Fire golems, attack!

In a few moments, the Taili Gate Sword Pill Talisman Sutra and the six peaks of the main hall were like a lit corn cob, the fire poison was raging, the ashes were flying, and the same door killed each other, and the Taili Gate became a living purgatory on earth.

Although Li Yao was able to activate the Great Sect Protector Array to slowly clear out these swarming fire puppets, these fire puppets were all members of his Taili Sect before his death!

The Tailimen people who suffered this catastrophe were filled with grief and anger but were helpless, and the Fire Bone Lady still hid in the shadows and did not show her voice, they were tired of dealing with countless fire golems, and it was really difficult to spare their spare strength to find the figure of the Fire Bone Lady.

The Taili Sect's Protector Array has been iterating for a hundred years, and it is difficult for people who are not familiar with the structure of this array to control.

If the peak master of the Array Dao Peak was still in the Taili Gate, this Sect Protector Array could be controlled by him, and Li Yao would be able to find out the location of the Fire Bone Lady.

However, Li Yao had already sent him to the national capital.

At this time, Li Yao was already anxious, and he regretted not being at the beginning! Regret not being at the beginning!

I want everything, but I can't keep anything, the future of Tailimen, the foundation of Tailimen, are all ruined today.

Compared with the miserable Taili Gate, the royal hunting ground was a great success.

Ying Xue and the others retreated in time, and the Meng Hu Sect spies in the Purple Wu Valley did not rush to attack, after all, there was almost a company of people waiting outside the valley.

Besides, there are so many treasures in the valley, it is impossible for immortal cultivators not to be moved, this is a naked conspiracy of Meng Hu Sect.

If it were an ordinary monk, he would definitely not be able to resist the temptation, but Yingxue was not an ordinary monk.

In the past, Princess Yutong's great kindness was not repaid, and after the blessing of Mr. Yuan Qian's wisdom, she had seen through the hidden conspiracy in Ziwu Valley and had a perfect plan.

Seeing that only Yingxue and the Jindan real person of the defense army escaped in a hurry, everyone in Taili Gate couldn't help but be suspicious again, Tu Hua, the peak master of the Taili Gate Formation, was the most senior, and he took the lead in asking:

"Why are you the only ones who came out, my Wang Keqing of Taili Gate?"

Yingxue told the conspiracy in the valley according to Xie Yuanqian's confession of the unpredictable prophet,

"The Purple Black Valley has fallen into the hands of Meng Hu Sect, and countless treasures in the valley are used as bait to attract monks to throw themselves into the net, and Wang Keqing of Taili Sect is probably greedy."

The Jin Dan of the Defense Force also chimed in,

"There are indeed countless treasures in the Purple Wu Valley, which is eye-catching, if it weren't for Lord Yingxue's strict order to retreat, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to resist the temptation."

Although what the two of them said was quite like that, this empty statement would definitely not be able to convince the people of Tailimen, so the people of Tailimen mutinied again, and Tu Hua even suppressed people with power, as if he wanted to take the lead.

Seeing this, the people of the defense army here also instantly became nervous, and protected Yingxue behind them.

Although Yingxue is only a foundation building monk, she is also a bold and careful person who has done this game with Xie Yuanqian, and she has not been suppressed by the powerful Taili Gate.

She took the initiative to remove the blade, ordered the defense forces to get out of the way, and argued with Tu Hua.

"Elder Tu, Yingxue also came out of Taili Gate, she is on the right path, and she is also from the same school as you, how can she have the intention of harming you?

This Purple Wu Valley is the secret realm of the Yu family, and I have been here with Princess Yutong a few times, but when we entered the valley, not to mention that the Yu family guards didn't even see a formation, which shows the strangeness.

I said before, if we want to harm you, we don't have to be here at all, just do it at the city gate,

Even if we want to set up an ambush here, we won't be stupid enough to attack that Wang Keqing first, isn't this a surprise?

In the end, I have a plan to verify that what I said is true, and I can also find out what conspiracy Meng Huzong has, if you don't believe it, you can leave by yourself, but the conspiracy between the Yu family and Tailimen will be stopped, and this Yu country will give him Meng Huzong, how?! ”

Ying Xue's words suppressed the Taili Sect people, Meng Huzong's threat has always been a sharp sword hanging over the head of the Taili Sect, they are here to kill the demon Dao villains, and now if they return in vain, they will be shameless to face the master.

Tu Hua, who was the speaker of the Taili Sect, also believed her at this time, but as a monk of the formation, he would not do anything unprepared.

The conspiracy must be successful, but the Yu family cannot be allowed to lead Tailimen by the nose again, Tu Hua put forward three conditions:

"Yingxue, since you also think that you are from my Taili Gate, then why don't you stay on my side of Taili Gate, your plan will be implemented by my Taili Gate, and our stronghold will be changed to Shangfang Valley, how about it?"

It seems that this Elder Tu also knows a thing or two about the royal hunting ground, Shangfang Valley is only one or two hundred miles away from Ziwu Valley, and it is also a good place rich in heavenly and earthly treasures, but there are demon beasts entrenched in the Jindan period, and ordinary casual cultivators do not dare to go rashly.

Yingxue still remembers what her husband once said: I never do things that I am not sure of, and once the plan is implemented, it is not impossible to enter the game by myself.

So she agreed to all of Tu Hua's conditions without hesitation,

"Then according to the elders!"

Yingxue's plan is very simple, since someone has planted bait in the Purple Black Valley to lure the monks into the net, then they can also lay bait outside the Purple Black Valley to lure them into the net.

According to what the gentleman said, give them a trick to repay the other way.

And the bait, according to Elder Tu Hua's requirements, is naturally a disciple of the Taili Sect who is not highly cultivated.

After the plan was formulated, everyone began to implement it, the defense army first went to Shangfang Valley to step on the point, and the people of Taili Sect first scattered and left, and then set up an ambush fifty miles away, and fully armed the bait disciples, but they could not be allowed to go back without their lives.

The spies of the Meng Hu Sect in the Purple Black Valley also paid close attention to their movements, after all, there was a head indicator outside.

But they waited left and right, but they did not wait for the monk who came to give the head, and when they looked out of the valley, good fellow, all the people were gone.

When the deacon in the valley saw this, he scolded his men

"Idiot, I said don't rush to collect people's heads, now it's okay, everyone has escaped!"

The low-level minions also have a hard time, didn't you just go out to collect people's heads, and said that if those two go out to report the news, they will definitely be able to put a long line to catch big fish.

Now everyone has run out, but let's carry this pot? That's not good, the devil's way is also about rules.

"Lord Deacon, we advised you just now, don't startle the snake."

This made the deacon even angrier, and threatened:

"! You don't know the seriousness of the matter! Where do you think I got this deacon?! The performance is not up to standard, but we have to make up the number of people! If it weren't for the Blood Sacrifice Formation set up in the valley, I would have gone outside to arrest people by myself! ”

The minions who were scared out of a cold sweat heard this, and said in a panic:

"That's right! Top dog! Why don't you go and arrest someone yourself? ”

The deacon was even more angry to death,

"Then can this purple valley be guarded by you? A bunch of rice buckets! ”

Meng Huzong has been working for a long time, and the closer he gets to the end, the more itchy he becomes.

Meng Xianglong pressed tightly, and these spies in the royal hunting ground could only strictly enforce it, the previous method of attracting monks by abduction and deception was too inefficient, and the intelligence in many places was almost exposed.

The monks are not stupid, they will not know that there are tigers in the mountains and favor the tiger mountains, and now the spies of the Meng Hu Sect can only speed up the process of blood sacrifice by waiting for the rabbits and forcibly abducting people.

After a while, Yingxue's plan finally began, and three disciples of the Taili Sect, two men and one woman, pretended to be loose cultivators and wandered at the mouth of the Ziwu Valley, and there was an argument.

Senior Brother Lu Jia proposed,

"Senior sister, I see that the feng shui here is excellent, there must be strange treasures in this canyon, why don't we go inside to hunt for treasures together, how about it?"

The younger brother Liu Bing held the opposite opinion,

"Senior brother's words are wrong, the terrain here is precipitous, and there are rumors that this place is dangerous and abnormal, and many monks have been missing, so let's find another place."

Senior sister Bao Fei seems to be more inclined to junior brother, echoed,

"What the junior brother said seems to be more reasonable, we are just foundation building monks, so we should be careful."

As soon as Lu Jia heard that his junior sister was more inclined to the younger junior brother, he was not happy on the spot.

"Senior brother, my generation of monks should open up the immortal path with a fearless spirit, besides, this place is just a hunting ground, what danger can there be."

Liu Bing confronted him-for-tat, not afraid of him at all,

"Senior brother, our cultivation is for immortality, not death, it's better for you to have a long brain."

Being so humiliated, Lu Jia's temper came up all of a sudden, and he didn't argue with him, and directly scuffled with Liu Bing.

The two of them punched and kicked, you went back and forth, and even threw out a lot of strange props such as bright stones, scattered fog flowers, and gravity rocks.

Senior sister Bao Fei can only do useless work on the side to dissuade them,

"Stop! Stop fighting, don't fight anymore! ”

The three of them deliberately acted to make a big noise, and the scene outside Ziwu Valley was chaotic for a while.

The spies in the Purple Black Valley saw that these three people had been wandering outside the valley for a long time, and now they were fighting again, although they couldn't figure out what the situation was, but with such three performances close at hand, could they not be moved?

The heart is followed by action.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and the deacon is also a very cautious person.

"You three, follow me!"

The deacon stationed here thought that he should be able to catch three unsuspecting foundation building monks as a Jindan real person, and besides, he also had a low-grade spirit treasure by his side, and three subordinates helped him, so these three people should follow in the footsteps of Wang Keqing.

But the situation was not at all what he had thought.

Bao Fei has been paying attention to the movements of Ziwu Valley, although the deacon wanted to sneak attack to succeed, but the three of them came in full armor, and the fight between the brothers and sisters also hid a mystery.

The props they threw out while fighting were all formation materials, and the gravity rock had the effect of changing the force field around the body.

Although the deacon's body was as fast as lightning, he made a move without reservation, and he directly sacrificed his inferior spirit treasure, the golden tendon rope, from the mouth of the valley to them.

The three Tsukiji minions behind him also came at full speed, ready to surround the three of Bao Fei.

The effect of the gravity rock was manifested at this moment, and the force field around Bao Fei and the three of them was even heavier, and the attacks of the spies of the Meng Hu Sect were all affected, and they were all empty.

Seeing that someone really made a move on them, Bao Fei and the others had been preparing for a long time, and they were on guard instantly.

The deacon has already led people to take action, and there is absolutely no reason to return in vain.

And although the attack failed, Meng Huzong fought three in four, and he still had an advantage in numbers.

So the deacon then commanded,

"These three people are weird, they shoot with all their might, and they can't let any of them go!"

Bao Fei and the others were fully armed, and the elixir they had taken in advance came in handy at this moment.

The three of them were only building a foundation, but the speed of Edgeworth's flight was faster than that of Deacon Jindan with high-grade spirit treasures and high-grade talismans.

The people of Taili Sect fled, and the people of Meng Huzong chased after them, and this drama that should have been staged in Taili Immortal City appeared in the royal hunting ground.

The seemingly panicked escape route of the three Bao Fei eventually led Meng Huzong's spies to a dead end.

There is a net array of heaven and earth under Tu Hua's cloth, and those spies of the Meng Hu Sect have nowhere to escape.

Yingxue's plan was a great success.
