Chapter 45: The Wind of Gloom, the Final Battle (2)

Probably the indomitable persistence moved the sky, just when the boy was most desperate, there were two forces at the same time to throw an olive branch to him, one force, the power of the fishing gang brought by a woman, and also one of the forces of the rivers and lakes, the other force, it seems a little supernatural, it is some Taoist priests wearing yellow robes and high hats, good at manipulating foreign beasts, the Taoist priests promised to teach him supernatural powers, on the condition that the boy must join the sect and defend the prosperity of the sect to the death for the rest of his life.

The boy did not hesitate to make a deal with the Taoist priests, in exchange for the coveted power from the demons, so far, nothing can stop the boy's footsteps, or rather, because of the addition of these two forces, he has successfully grown from a boy to a man overnight, and has become a man who can stand on the highest point, freely overlook the world, and be admired and longed for by the world.

Soon after, the boy finally got his wish, the boy could finally stand in the sun and flatter each other with the so-called magnates, the boy finally had the power and wealth recognized by the world, and the boy finally lived a happy life, so comfortable that he forgot that he was always a loach born in the dark and mud, and he could be beaten back to his original form if he was not careful. ”

"Brother Linghu!"

"That's right, the boy in the story is me-Linghu Xuanzhou! My real surname is Zhou, and in order to become one of the nobles, I changed my name and surname to Linghu Xuanzhou. I have paid too much to get everything I have today, and anyone who wants to take it away from Zhou needs to step on Zhou's corpse. The more chilling wind rose, causing a turbid aura to rise on the fox hanging boat, "Brother Shen, come on, you and I will fight fairly, and we will never die!"

At this moment, Shen Fei was greatly touched, as the king of Jinling City, Ling Hu Xuanzhou's demeanor at the critical moment was admirable, and the red fairy gang lurking in his body rose again, burning like a flame: "Brother Ling Hu, when were you ready to break the net with me?"

"From the moment I left Jinling, I did have a glimmer of hope, thinking that it would be okay to go to the imperial capital, but the few days when I lost my freedom made me realize that in fact, the agreement between you and me is false, I will always be a loach, a loach that lives in the dark and sludge, a loach that is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the superiors, whether there is fault or not, I will be buried for the three princes, no matter what. In order to survive, I can only choose to protect myself, and the way to protect myself is to fight back. ”

"There are so many opportunities for you to escape along the way, why don't you catch them?"

"Escape? Isn't that exactly what you want, and you have confirmed your evil deeds of killing the three princes and become a scapegoat. ”

"What's the difference now, if Emperor Lie has an accident in Shangqiu, then not only the power of the Tongtian Sect in Jinling City will be wiped out, but even Shangqiu City will not be able to escape the catastrophe. ”

"You're so naïve. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Why do you think the young squids are coming from the sea, why are there ambushes on the trade routes, do you think that sacrificing them is just delaying the advance of the army?"

"Isn't it......" At this point, Shen Fei showed a serious expression for the first time, he had always had doubts in his heart about these two surprise attacks of the Tongtian Sect, "Brother Linghu, what do you mean?"

But he listened to Linghu Hanging Boat and said: "From Jinling to the imperial capital, there are three roads to choose from - waterway, land trade route and land official road. First, the big fish comes from the sea, which can make you give up the plan to travel by water, and choose the land route, and as long as you take the land route, whether it is the official road or the business road, you will definitely pass through Shangqiu City; second, a group of demon beasts attacking the imperial fortress Nantong, in fact, is an introduction, paving the way for the appearance of the same demon beasts in Shangqiu City; third, the ambush on the trade road will make you further have the illusion that all the actions made by the Tongtian Sect are delaying time, but in fact, the real ambush has already been done, the number of ambushes is not much, and one fatal time is enough。 And the place where I really want to snipe you is this place - Shangqiu City!"

"I see...... Shen Fei gasped, he never thought that he had miscalculated, the surprise attack that appeared along the way, which seemed to be not fully prepared at first glance, was not that the Tongtian Sect was really unprepared, on the contrary, they were using this to set up a bigger game, a bureau that made no matter what strange things happened in Shangqiu City, it was absolutely reasonable and would not arouse the suspicion of outsiders," Ordered the sea monster to come from the sea, completely dispelling the idea of my waterway, ordering the demon beasts to attack Nantong again and again, making the upper echelons of the empire think that everything that happened in Shangqiu City was done by the demon beasts who did not want to die, your plan is indeed exquisite, but there is one thing I still don't understand, why you don't take advantage of so many opportunities to escape, just leave like that, isn't it better, even if you become a scapegoat, what can you do, can such a crazy move change the fact that you have become the murderer of the third prince?"

"Of course, I Linghu Xuanzhou knows the truth that there is no excuse for the crime that I want to add, how the superior decides is his judgment, no matter how much evidence is not as good as the words of the prince Tuoba Lie, he thinks that I am a murderer, so I tell the emperor, in the case that no one in the court can speak to me, I Linghu Xuanzhou is the murderer, there is no possibility of rebuttal. ”

"And what you're doing this for?"

"It's very simple, I want the world to know that the royal family is nothing, and if you annoy my Tongtian Sect, even the royal family may be wiped out at any time. ”

"I see. At this point, Shen Fei suddenly realized, and finally understood Ling Hu Xuanzhou's intentions, "It turns out that your Tongtian Sect wants to take this opportunity to establish its prestige and improve its prestige, so that the world's fear of you will be further enhanced, so that the high-ranking royal family will not dare to easily offend your sect in the future." ”

"Not bad!" Ling Hu Hanging Boat laughed, his back straightened, and the haze that shrouded his body was swept away, "Since the wood has been completed, I have to bury the death of the third prince no matter what, so good, in order to preserve the hard-fought country, I can only create terror, so that after I disappear, the empire does not dare to easily touch the remnants of Zhou left in Jinling City." To this end, I need to create a big event that is enough to shake the empire, and the stage for this big event to take place is naturally the secret base of the Tongtian Sect, the ridiculous emperor Lao'er thinks that he has a firm grasp of Shangqiu City! I want to cause a killing here, annihilate all the envoys of the Taoist Sect and the army in charge of escorting here, leave Tuoba Lie the only living mouth, let him go to report to the Yellow Emperor Lao'er pitifully, and let him use his words full of fear to tell the world what kind of ruthless revenge those who dare to touch my Tongtian Sect, only in this way can I order the power of the fox hanging boat in Jinling City to have a chance to survive. ”

"It turns out that your ambition is so great. ”

"Without ambition, how can you go from a loach living in the sludge to a dragon standing tall!"

"Do you think it's possible for you to succeed? ”

"There is one thing you probably will never be able to figure out, in fact, Tuoba Jun has long become a puppet of the Tongtian Sect, and Shangqiu City is also the largest fortress of the Tongtian Sect in the empire, there are hundreds of Tongtian Sect priests lurking here, from the moment you step into Shangqiu City, the fate of defeat has been doomed. ”

"It's just a Tongtian Sect, no matter how many people there are, how can they compete with the orthodoxy of the Taoist Sect. ”

"As long as it defeats you, Shushan will no longer dare to claim to be orthodox. Before the words fell, the ground behind Shen Fei suddenly cracked, and a bloody mouth came from the ground, "When approaching me, I was very moved by deliberately stepping on a branch, but ah, Shen Fei, you are really too naïve, too naïve, this world is the law of the jungle, there is no justice and evil at all, do you really naively think that if you don't step on that branch, I will make the fox hang the boat, I don't know that you are lurking on the side, after all, you are a young man, and your heart is always not ruthless enough." ”

The bloody mouth was angry, the fangs were bright like a scimitar that cut through the night, Shen Fei drew his sword and collided with it, the green light and the red light collided and canceled, but they echoed each other, after a year, the death battle with Linghu Hanging Boat finally broke out, is the so-called ideal justice unrealistic, or the antique-like stubbornness should have been eliminated a long time ago, the new forces against the old forces, the back waves against the front waves, the last battle that drew an end to the trip to Jinling broke out in another city, and the influence of the Heavenly Dao was all-pervasive.

......

Shen Fei's biggest enemy when he went down the mountain to preach was the Buddha Sect, but because of the obsession in his heart, before he really started a war with the Buddha Sect, he first formed a bond with the Tongtian Sect, the number one enemy of the Buddha Sect in the human country, and the Liang Zi was so big that he even had to divide life and death.

Shen Fei's actions are obviously not in line with the criterion of "the enemy of the enemy is his friend", but it can precisely reflect the style of Taoism, the purpose of my Taoist sect is to "do the way for heaven", for this reason all evil things are the objects that need to be eradicated, even if they fall into passivity because of this. Therefore, Shen Fei actually increased his style by embarking on a steeper mountain road, so that the people who were about to receive enlightenment deeply realized that the missionary journey of Taoism was not the rebalancing of forces and the redistribution of territory in the traditional sense, but really to completely change something and remove some stubborn diseases.

One person and one sword broke into the General's Mansion, Shen Fei was not a reckless person, he dared to do this because recently, his strength had increased by leaps and bounds, and he had grown significantly.

The growth is mainly reflected in four aspects, each of which is only a prototype, but it has opened up a broader world for him. First of all, the comprehension of sword intent, in the battle with Chu Xie, Shen Fei deeply realized that sword intent can actually be substantiated, and the power that sword intent can exert is actually more powerful than the sword gang that swings the sword; parallel to the sword intent is the comprehension of the rhythm, Shen Fei has mastered the most basic rhythm, and can use the sound of the piano to interfere with the thoughts of others; these two exercises are the skills that he himself has honed through long-term battles, and correspondingly, the top immortal art of Chaohua Peak, the gentleman's qi technique and the way of the circle taught by Lingyike.

For thousands of years, including the ancestors of Qingshan Dao, the difference between the factions of the thousand peaks of Shu Mountain has made the immortal schools into a system, among which the immortal schools between the seven main peaks will never communicate and integrate with each other, and there are clear boundaries between them; 。 As the orthodox heir of Chaohua Peak, Lingyi Ke was defeated by Yin Qiushui in the battle of the peak master, although he lost, but what he inherited was genuine, the most orthodox Chaohua Peak secret technique, whether it was the gentleman's Qi Technique or the way of the circle, he could teach Shen Fei the most essential part of it. And Shen Fei, as a disciple of the main peak, practiced the volume of the Book of Dao, and now blessed the secret technique of Chaohua Peak, which can be described as a tiger with wings, which is something that even a generation of Tianjiao Qingshan Dao Ancestors thousands of years ago failed to do.

With this powerful help, Shen Fei's strength has increased greatly. It's just that the skills he has learned are now in the embryonic stage, and he has not yet had a deeper level of understanding, and if he has a deeper understanding, his realm should be able to go to a higher level.

Because of his confidence, Shen Fei dared to break into the Longtan Tiger's Den with one person and one sword, in addition to another reason, he didn't want Nalan Ruoxue to be in danger, and at the same time hoped that Chu Xie could protect Ruoxue from being harmed, so he came alone to completely end the grudge with the Tongtian Sect Master.

According to what Linghu Xuanzhou said, Shangqiu is one of the strongholds of the Tongtian Sect, so the city lord's mansion of Shangqiu City must have been placed with various traps to deal with possible dangers. The Flower of Evil encountered before was already a clear example, it must have been planted here a long time ago and could be launched at any time. At this moment, the courtyard where Ling Hu Xuanzhou was located must be another trap, Shen Fei's earlier thoughts must have been deviated, and Ling Hu Xuanzhou chose this place for the battlefield probably not because of the lush branches and foliage here, which is beneficial to Shen Fei, but behind the lush foliage, there are hidden secrets and traps that no one knows about, which can be used against him.

From this point of view, this battle is not a desperate battle for the hero in the twilight, but the superior has already laid a trap and waited for the challenger to take the initiative to come to the door, waiting for him to die in one fell swoop. The feud between Shen Fei and Linghu Hangzhou began at the Royal Casino in Jinling City, and since then, they have gone around and around, making countless small fights, testing each other countless times, and never really tearing their faces, and today they finally met honestly, but it was also a matter of life and death.
