Chapter 45: Confluence
Zhong Shen urged the water wheel under his feet and flew at the low altitude of the mountain range, with many peaks in front of him, but according to the map, Shending Peak should be not far ahead.
After entering this mountain range, he also found the unique gate mark left by the Zhong family, and immediately followed the mark to show the meeting point.
Suddenly, the water wheel under his feet flashed, and his figure stopped in mid-air, while he glanced meaningfully at a certain forest below.
"Oh no, it's been discovered!"
"No matter, do it. As long as the action is fast enough, the Zhong family will not be able to arrive in time. ”
As soon as the words fell, an acre of cyan magic circle suddenly appeared in the woods, and there were two figures casting spells with words in their mouths next to them.
As soon as there was a roar in the magic circle, more than a dozen spears that were long and full of blue light shot out from the magic circle, and the target was Zhong Shen.
Not only that, but the void near Zhong Shen fluctuated together, and two furry claws poked out like lightning, grabbing Zhong Shen's shoulder like an iron hook.
Zhong Shen's face sank, his shoulders only shook slightly, and a layer of blue water wave light curtain instantly appeared, and his furry claws immediately slid over it, unable to hurt Zhong Shen at all.
At the same time, Zhong Shen had an extra cyan short sword in his other hand, but it just slashed into the void in the direction of the claw, and a green line flashed away.
With a "poof", a stealth demon beast with a leopard head and a bear body immediately appeared out of the void in two, falling down with a rain of blood.
At this time, the dozen or so cyan wind spears also instantly arrived in front of Zhong Shen's face, and the cyan sword in Zhong Shen's hand just dripped, and dense green silk emerged, like a big net, all the wind spears were instantly twisted into pieces.
"It's not good, this is the core disciple of the Zhong family. Run!"
The two immortal cultivators next to the lower array were shocked when they saw this scene, and without saying a word, they fled together, one on the left and one on the right, and fled for their lives in two different directions.
Seeing this, Zhong Shen snorted, threw the small cyan sword in his hand into one of the lights, turned into a long sword light and chased away, and grabbed the void in the other hand, and a delicate copper bell appeared in his hand, but after a shake in the palm of his hand, it suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, the cyan sword light caught up with the light like a rainbow, and just as it rolled by, the figure in the light let out a scream and cut the corpse in two.
On the other side, there was a "ding" sound above another retreat, and a huge copper bell like a water tank emerged, just a slight flicker, and a circle of white sound waves visible to the naked eye erupted from it, and the shadow of the retreat below turned into a burst of blood rain.
As soon as Zhong Shen made a move, he took the lives of these two sneak attack immortal cultivators.
"Yes, yes, you are already proficient in the art I taught you. Zhong Shen's shoulders fluctuated, and the pale golden squirrel suddenly appeared, and said in a big way.
"This is also the way that the seniors have taught, and the juniors really didn't know that just a change in some imperial weapon skills could cause such an amazing change in the power of magic weapons. If I had met these two people before, even if I could win, it would have been impossible to kill them in such a short time. After Zhong Shen raised his hand and recalled the two magic weapons, he replied with emotion.
"Of course, this seat is not only a heaven-level puppet, but also a master of refining, and his understanding of various magic weapons is comparable to that of ordinary Yuanying cultivators. The golden squirrel was not polite, and replied proudly.
Zhong Shen smiled slightly, and was about to answer something more, but two rays of light flew from the direction of Shending Peak, and after the light flickered, a tall and thin young man and a beautiful woman appeared.
"Zhong Shen, is that you?" The tall and thin young man was slightly stunned when he saw Zhong Shen. The glamorous woman next to her also showed a stunned look.
"It's the two of you, what's the matter? Is it strange that I'm here?" Zhong Shen glanced at the two of them and said lightly, the golden squirrel on his shoulder disappeared without a trace at some point.
This man and a woman are also relatively famous in the Zhong family's descendants, not only are they sisters and brothers, but they are also said to have telepathic secret techniques, and their strength against the enemy is far beyond that of ordinary two.
"Today is my sister and brother in charge of the inspection, and there have been several incidents of small forces and scattered cultivators attacking the immortal cultivators of the three major families recently. There were mana fluctuations and explosions here before, could it be that you fought with someone?" asked the beautiful woman with a slight frown.
The tall and thin young man's eyes had already swept around, and finally landed on the two pieces of corpses in the distance, and immediately flew over.
A moment later, the two corpses were thrown heavily on the ground below Zhong Shen, and the tall and thin young man asked expressionlessly: "This person should have been killed by you, looking at the outfit, it should be one of the scattered cultivators who attacked the Zhong family nearby." ”
"Yes, this person and another person have set up a magic circle to sneak up on me, so I naturally can't let them go. Zhong Shen replied calmly.
"Another person?" the tall and thin young man heard this, his pupils shrank slightly.
You know, the interval between the time their sibling heard the movement from a distance and the time they flew over immediately was not too long.
When the glamorous woman heard this, she was also a little moved.
"Okay, I killed the people, but before I had time to get the loot, the two of them were already here, so I don't mind waiting a little longer. I just wanted to ask you something else. Zhong Shen said indifferently.
Tall and thin young men and glamorous women, naturally they can't refuse.
After Zhong Shen searched the corpse, he followed the two of them and flew towards the place where the Zhong family's disciples met.
On the way, Zhong Shen learned from the two of them about the three major families joining forces to expel other immortal cultivators, and then he suddenly wondered why there would be a loose cultivator to sneak attack the disciples of the three major families.
In this regard, he was noncommittal. However, according to the two of them, the sound of Danming has begun to be heard from Shending Peak, and according to the experience of previous records, the eruption period of Taiyi Dan should also be within four or five days.
At this time, the three major families gathered at Shending Peak actually did not have too many people, the Tang family with the most people was about fifteen or sixteen people, the Zhong family was about a dozen or so, and the Yue family with the least was only seven or eight people. But in the next few days, there should be someone who can arrive in time like Zhong Shen.
In half an hour, Zhong Shen came to the place where the Zhong family's disciples gathered, which was the peak of another smaller mountain next to the Shending Peak.
There, a large magic circle shrouded in fog had been arranged, and after Zhong Shen followed the two into a passage separated by the mist, he finally saw everything on the top of the peak clearly.
I saw that there were seven or eight Zhong family disciples sitting on the small empty flat ground, some were meditating with their eyes closed, some were fiddling with magic weapons, and some were talking in a low voice, looking like they were doing their own thing.
On a huge rock at the top of the mountain, a young man in gray stood there straight, with a black iron spear in front of him, two arms stretched straight forward, and a black iron ring on each of them, which was rotating in a strange rhythm, making people feel dizzy after a few more glances.
"Hey, this Terran kid's alchemy technique is different, and it seems that it has reached the point where the three turns of blood and qi are combined. ”
Zhong Shen's ears suddenly heard King Jin's surprised voice.
"Blood and qi are one?" Zhong Shen looked at Zhong Daotian on the boulder, slightly puzzled.
"Not bad. Regardless of the human race and demon race, in fact, the level division of alchemy is much the same, and it can basically be distinguished by nine turns, it is not easy to be able to achieve the unity of blood and qi at such an age, and to be able to control every trace of blood and qi on the body exquisitely. King Jin's voice came.
When Zhong Shen heard this, his heart sank slightly, and he took a deep look at the strange rotating iron rings on Zhong Daotian's two arms, and he knew a little more about the strength of this nominal brother.
Zhong Shen's arrival made these Zhong family disciples can't help but take a look, but except for the two descendants who showed some joy on their faces, the other descendants continued to do their own things as if nothing happened.
Seeing this, Zhong Shen didn't pay attention to others, just found a corner where no one was, and sat cross-legged on the ground by himself, closing his eyes.
There are many imperial weapons that King Jin taught before, and he still hasn't fully comprehended them, so he just has the time to grasp a lot of them.
The tall and thin young man and the beautiful woman walked to Zhong Daotian on the rock, whispered back to the passage of meeting Zhong Shen, and pointed to Zhong Shen's place from time to time.
"I see, you two have worked hard too, go down and rest first. Zhong Daotian just glanced at Zhong Shen lightly, and waved his hand, as if he didn't take Zhong Shen to heart at all.
The tall and thin young man and the beautiful woman immediately retreated, and after a while, the other two Zhong family disciples left the mountain peak and continued to inspect the area that the Zhong family was responsible for.
