Chapter Fifty-Six: The Wind Stops
In the Yiwei Heavenly City, in a platform room facing the void, Chen Qianding was practicing.
At this time, he suddenly opened his eyes, reached into his sleeve, and took out a finely carved jade plaque from inside, with the word "Mao" in ancient Xia script on it.
It's just that at this moment, cracks appeared on the word, and soon spread to the surroundings of the jade plate, and pieces of tiny fragments fell from it, and finally turned into a pile of rubble in the palm of the hand.
His expression was still calm, and he rubbed his five fingers and palms slightly, and suddenly a cloud of jade crumbs fell from the edge of his palm.
This thing is Ding Mao's talisman, and if this thing is broken, it means that Ding Mao is dead, and this operation is naturally a failure.
His eyes are deep, Ding Mao is the most fearless of siege, the more people there are, the more strength can be exerted, and the only person who can kill Ding Mao above the frost star is probably Zhang Yu, who has defeated Nie Yin, Xuan Ting.
It's just that Ding Mao was appointed as the Xuanting Patrol, even if he was not successful twenty years ago, he was definitely not his opponent, can he be defeated by just walking in the Xuanting?
Therefore, he reasoned that if this was really the work of this person, then it was likely that he had a different identity.
Combined with some of the recent rumors he had received, he already had a guess in his mind.
But that's not good news for him.
And Ding Mao's death, unless he personally takes action, it is impossible to do anything to Frost Star, and there is no way to hide it, and now he can only think of making up for the loopholes.
He thought for a long time and said, "Come on." ”
A disciple walked in from outside, bowed, and said, "What do you command?"
Chen Qianding said: "Go find Senior Brother Luo to come here." ”
The disciple should get down, bow down and withdraw.
After a long time, a thin Taoist walked in from outside and said, "I heard that Senior Brother called me?"
Chen Qianding said: "There are a few things that you need to do personally. ”
The thin Taoist said, "Senior brother, please command." ”
Chen Qianding didn't speak directly, but passed the voice, and after the thin Taoist heard it, he nodded again and again, and finally bowed, and said, "Little brother, I'll do it immediately." ”
He paused, "There is one thing, before the senior brother asked the junior brother to check the background of that Zhang Yu, but when the junior brother was checking, he found that Senior Brother Xu was also doing the same, and he was still looking around for his residence, and after inquiring, I realized that Senior Brother Xu seemed to have some contradictions with this one. ”
Chen Qianding raised his head and said, "Oh, is there such a thing?" He glanced at Shi Yan and said, "It's the beginning of the month again, and the competition between the juniors and disciples is about to start, right?"
Skinny said, "Yes." ”
Chen Qianding didn't say anything more, waved his hand, and said, "I already know, you can go." ”
The thin Taoist raised his hand and retreated.
Chen Qianding stood up at this moment, walked a few steps in place, and then walked to the desk, opened a picture scroll and began to flip it.
It can be seen that these are all more outstanding monks of the Xuanzhen Dao, including both Shen Ruoqiu and Nie Yin, as well as Yao Zhenjun, Shi Yanxin, Zhang Yu and other Xuan cultivators.
Ding Mao was the biggest chip in his hand, and now it has been destroyed, and the loss can be described as huge.
Not only that, but he also lacked such a great help.
And although things have not yet reached the worst step, he also feels a hint of threat, and he must sacrifice one or more Dao pawns by his side.
As the pages turned, his gaze finally fixed on the figure of a man.
In the void, as a sword light flew through the sky, accurately passing through Ding Mao's body, he glanced at the wound on his chest, nodded at Zhang Yu, who was standing in the distance, and then dissipated the light.
Zhang Yu's figure slowly fell to the ground, and after he gave Ding Mao a complete sword weapon, the latter was no longer simply on the defensive, but launched an attack.
In this battle, he did not use other means, purely relying on sword skills to compete with the other party, but in the end, it ended with the exhaustion of his mana.
Although he was not able to distinguish the winner from the loser in terms of swordsmanship, he was very happy, and with such an opponent, he could know where his swordsmanship could continue to make up.
He looked ahead, and under the evolution of the white fruit, Ding Mao's figure appeared again.
This time, he will abandon his sword weapon and fight the opponent purely by visualizing the image and all kinds of supernatural powers, both to sharpen himself and to perfect his seal.
In this kind of battle, he must always maintain a distance from the other party by means of retreat, and must not be bullied by the other party, once such a situation occurs, he also needs to get rid of it quickly, and in this, it is extremely testing the skills of moving away and taking the trap lock.
He clenched his fists with five fingers, and the long sword in his hand instantly turned into a point of light and dispersed, and he said, "Baiguo, let's start." ”
Time flickered, and twelve days passed.
The raging blizzard outside has finally receded.
Zhang Yu came out of the stillness, the essence in his eyes flashed, the qi that suddenly appeared on his body was opened, and the entire inner room seemed to be squeezed and collapsed by the inflated qi machine, but the next moment, all this was converged again, and everything around him returned to normal.
In the past ten days, he has been constantly fighting with Ding Mao in the virtual realm of his evolution, but he has abandoned his sword weapon and relied purely on the visualization map and the divine channel technique to deal with it.
In the face of a sword cultivator who has mastered the supernatural power of the sword, the slightest lack of supernatural power will take advantage of it, which also forces him to constantly use the technique of locking and escaping.
Under this tempering, he also had a deeper understanding of this way.
At this time, he called in his heart, and Dao Xuanzhang appeared on his side.
He looked at the Seal of Light on it, and immediately threw the Divine Yuan into it.
In an instant, the seal emitted a burst of light from the Xuanzhang and enveloped him, and after a long while, the light was retracted.
As soon as this seal is completed, it can be used as its fourth core seal, but just like the divine sense, sword seal and other seals, this seal is far from its own upper limit, and it needs to be continuously improved in the future.
He still needs to add it to the visualization map, but this is not the right time, and this realm is not suitable.
As soon as his mind turned, he took the Dao Xuanzhang back, stood up, and walked from the quiet room to the outer room.
There were soldiers waiting outside, clasping their fists and saying, "Zhang walks, Sima is invited." ”
Zhang Yuwei nodded, he walked along the corridor, and after a short time came to the inner hall, Miao Guangwu saw him coming, immediately stood up, hugged his fists and said: "The patrol is out of the customs?"
Zhang Yu also saluted and said, "Master Miao has something to look for me?"
Miao Guangwu said: "Patrol Zhang, now that the snowstorm is receding, Deputy Deng Cong has also been gone for twelve days, and it stands to reason that he should have returned, but now there is still no trace, I think about what the patrol said before, will there be anything wrong here?"
Zhang Yudao: "The situation outside is unknown, we can only continue to wait for news now, I have asked Zuo Daoyou to send the news to Xuanting, if there is no accident, there will be a reply in the near future." ”
Miao Guangwu tried to ask at this time: "Patrol, now that the snowstorm has receded, can the patrol let go of the station?"
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes." ”
In the past so many days, the other party should have known and already knew, even if there was a problem on Deng Cong's side, Zuo Daoren's side should have sent the submission to the Xuanfu, and there was no point in blocking it now.
Miao Guangwu couldn't help but clench his fists when he heard him loosen his mouth, and said, "Thank you for patrolling." ”
After obtaining Zhang Yu's permission, he immediately took a team of soldiers out of the garrison in a flying boat and headed straight for the northern end of the Frost Star.
After arriving at the Realm, he first ran into the Wei army stationed here this month, and the latter personally led people to inspect it, and finally found that there was indeed a large array that covered almost the entire northern end.
He knew that if someone from the Military Affairs Department came later, he would definitely inspect this place in detail, so in order not to destroy this place, he immediately transferred a thousand soldiers from the station, and at the same time, the Niu Dao people in the station were also responsible for guarding the town.
As for the station, there is Zhang Yushouzhen, who has mastered the big array talisman, and he is not afraid of any problems.
On the other side, Fu Cuo stood in the cave and looked out, these days, he had been hiding here with the remnants of his soldiers, although there was no shortage of fresh water, but his mood was extremely dull, not only worried about the future of Fu's army, but also afraid that the garrison would not let them go, and would come over at this time.
And the disciple of the Zuo Daoist saw that he could escape from the other world, so he took the initiative to ask Ying, saying that he was going out to find the Zuo Daoren.
This was a good thing to say in advance, and Fu Cuo did not object, but at this time, someone pointed to the outside and shouted with a little panic: "Young army master, look over there." ”
Fu Cuo looked up and saw a flying boat flying towards them, his face turned pale suddenly, because it was clearly a flying boat of the garrison, he couldn't help but panic, everyone was in the cave at this moment, if a mysterious soldier fell, no one could escape.
The disciple of the Zuo Daoist still remained calm, he stared at it for a while, and said, "Young Army Master, look at the light on the flying boat, this flying boat doesn't look like it's coming to attack. ”
Fu Cuo was stunned for a moment, squinted his eyes, and sure enough, the flying boat had been hovering above and had not fallen, and there were bursts of flickering light on the boat, although he knew a lot about the Mangguang communication, but he also knew that this probably meant the meaning of his comrades, and he couldn't help but feel a little calmer in his heart.
The flying boat hovered above for half a moment, then slowly landed, and as soon as the hatch opened, Fu Yong walked out of it with the help of others.
"Father?"
Fu Cuo rushed out in surprise, he came up and grabbed Fu Yong, looked up and down, and said excitedly: "Father, are you okay, are you okay?"
Fu Yong coughed a few times, shook his head and said, "How can it be okay, the matter has not passed yet." ”
Fu Cuo said nervously: "Where is the garrison?"
Fu Yong sighed: "It's not there, I'm afraid we're involved in a bigger trouble, and we haven't had a choice yet, now we can only stand by that one's side, in case something happens to this one, then our Fu army not only has no future at all, I'm afraid everyone will also be doomed." ”
Seeing that he said so seriously, Fu Cuo panicked again, and said, "Father, this, this, you say this is ......."
Fu Yong shook his head and said: "It's inconvenient to say here, let's go back to the station first, and I'll talk to you in detail after I go back." ”
