Chapter 70: A Journey to the Underworld (I)
"Sixth brother, since Princess Wei looks exactly like your mother, then it is very likely that he will deal with your father, but this time Princess Wei is going to be unlucky, Uncle Wang and his old man are already a monk at the peak of the Tiangang Realm, and there is only one opportunity left before he breaks through to become a monk of the Earth Immortal Realm. ”
When the Eighth Prince said this, he pretended to be mysterious and said to Yunxiao and his aunt: "I heard from the prince that the family sent an elder from the Earth Immortal Realm to secretly protect Uncle Wang and his old man!"
At this time, Yunxiao has basically learned about Princess Wei's scheme, so he must find evidence as soon as possible, strike first, and eradicate Princess Wei as soon as possible. Lest this Princess Wei once again collude with evil demons such as Feng Siniang, and since then he has been reincarnated, he has decided not to let anyone know his secret. Except for those who can truly be trusted, everyone who knows his secrets will die.
The mistakes of the previous life must not be continued in this life. Yunxiao went from a filial son who served his mother to return to old age to a decisive son, and he decided to use the Great Jin Dynasty to establish his own power.
"Aunt, eighth brother, you go to the palace to wait for me first, remember that this letter must be handed over to my father!"
"Xiao'er, we remember. You have to be careful yourself, Princess Wei is cunning, since she colluded with a cult like Voodoo, I'm afraid there will be even more insidious tricks against you!"
"Auntie, please rest assured, my nephew has his own way to deal with it!"
Yunxiao sent away his aunt, the eighth prince, seeing that it was getting late, and was about to leave for the west gate, when he suddenly sensed that the old man he saw in the morning was in danger, he hurriedly urged his mount and galloped towards the west gate.
The west gate of Nanyang City, at this time is still full of people, as a famous metropolis of the Great Jin Dynasty, it is developed by a huge military fortress a long time ago, and the whole city has a total of three city walls with one ring and one ring, constituting the inner city, the main city and the outer city.
The Inviting Moon Restaurant is located in the bustling area between the inner city and the main city, and Yunxiao felt that the place where the old man was born was close to the gate of the outer city. Since he was reincarnated, he didn't know what the problem was, and many abilities could not be used, especially the inability to fly with the sword.
The inner city is mostly the Yingzhou Prefecture Pastoral Office and other official buildings, as well as the residence of the magnates; the main city is the Nanyang Mansion, and the four counties under its jurisdiction are the locations of the officials at all levels, is the most concentrated area of the population of Nanyang City, the north city of this area is mostly the residence of the powerful and rich, the south city is mostly the residence of rich merchants and various commercial places, and the east city and the west city are mostly the residences of the common people.
The outer city is composed of a large number of acropolis, hundreds of acropolis are developed from the original military fortress, the walls between these acropolis are relatively low, and it is also the largest area of Nanyang City, this area is mostly inhabited by peddlers, pawns, and peasants.
The place agreed between Yunxiao and the old man who set up the stall is the west gate of the outer city, and as night falls, the outer city is far worse than the main city and the inner city because of the public security, so when it gets dark, there are basically few people in the outer city.
The old man Li Chang carried the burden and walked slowly to the place he had agreed with the young man in the morning, and suddenly a figure came out from behind the big tree on the side of the road, and the old man was caught off guard, and when he was about to be pierced through the heart by a pitch-black dagger, suddenly a sword light flew by, and went straight to the vital point of mankind.
At the same time, the old man felt a feminine force pull him aside, dodging the dagger that stabbed him in the heart.
"Your Excellency is good at kung fu, I didn't expect Meng to meet a master today, it's a pity that your kung fu is very good, but you are despicable, and you actually attacked an old man who doesn't know martial arts at all!"
Yao Cheng didn't expect that his steady blow would miss, the dagger in his hand just now clearly hit the old man, but it was blocked by a soft force, although part of this power came from the person who blocked him, but this old man must have another name.
Meng Tong, as the head of the guards of the Zhennan Palace, received from His Royal Highness the Prince in the afternoon and asked him to protect the old man who was setting up a stall near King Zheng's Mansion, so he secretly protected this seemingly ordinary old man alone. However, Meng Tong, as a guard of the palace, has seen a lot of things, and he always feels that this old man is not simple, but he can't say anything.
The assassin who attacked the old man missed a blow and failed to succeed, and was about to leave, when suddenly Meng Tongren's sword merged, turning into a sword light that sealed all his retreats from front to back.
"Hmph, Streamer Sword Rain, I didn't expect Your Excellency to come from the Sword Worship Gate!"
The assassin snorted coldly, revealing Meng Tong's origin, his voice was as ugly as a night owl crying, and the old man felt cold all over his body when he heard it in the night.
Meng Tong danced the sword and fought with the assassin, because he had to be distracted to protect the old man, so he could only fight with the assassin, although the assassin's dagger moves were strange and tricky, but Meng Tong was experienced in a hundred battles, and his own swordsmanship had reached a very high level, coupled with his own cultivation to break through the earth's evil realm, so he quickly forced the assassin into a corner.
At this moment, suddenly Meng Tong noticed that three feather arrows were coming towards the old man, and he hurriedly withdrew to block the feather arrows for the old man, but he didn't expect that the assassin who had been suppressed by him just now suddenly burst out, and the speed was much faster, and the dagger in his hand glowed black in the night, stabbing straight at his heart.
Meng Tong had no choice but to continue to deal with the assassin carefully, but the assassin's move was just a false move, he knew that the purpose of the assassination had been achieved and was about to escape, when the mutation reappeared, and a silver shield suddenly appeared on the old man's body, blocking all the three feather arrows.
"Damn, what a hell of a life, this dead old man actually has the treasure of the automatic protector on his body!"
The Assassin was depressed when the silver shield on the old man's body suddenly shattered. The guy hurriedly whistled, and suddenly the three figures rushed towards the old man, and then he dragged Meng Tong with all his might.
The old man originally thought that he would be killed by an arrow, but he didn't expect a silver shield to suddenly float on his body, and the old man who had escaped the catastrophe hurriedly took out the broken silver given to him by the noble son in the morning from his arms. The light on the surface of the broken silver suddenly disappeared, and the silver shield that protected him shattered, and the whole piece of silver was reduced to silver powder and scattered from the old man's fingertips to the ground.
Yunxiao rode his horse and galloped along the way, causing passers-by to scold, and finally came to the west gate, but saw the old man being attacked by assassins from a distance, and hurriedly jumped up from the horse, and the whole person turned into a light and flew towards the old man quickly.
Yunxiao exerted the spirit rhino body method and the swift phantom to the extreme, but finally failed to save the old man, just before he pounced, three assassins who suddenly appeared, saw that someone was coming in the distance, they raised their arms one after another, and three three-inch-long crossbow arrows were **** towards the old man's chest, Meng Tong saw that the situation was not good, his body turned sharply, and the sword light forced the assassin to retreat at the same time, his body retreated sharply, and the long sword in his hand knocked down the two crossbow arrows, and Yunxiao, who was not far away, sent out a series of Xuanming divine needles to knock down the last crossbow arrow.
However, the first assassin to appear, but when Meng Tong withdrew, he quietly shot three poisonous needles, Meng Tong and Yunxiao noticed that it was too late, the old man's chest and forehead were hit by three poisonous needles, and he died immediately.
In mid-air, Yunxiao saw that the three assassins in ordinary clothes were about to separate and leave, and their bodies suddenly shook, and suddenly they separated into three identical selves and chased them separately.
"I didn't expect that the three gods in one would be able to separate three clones with the same strength after I advanced to the Earth Immortal Realm, but I don't know when my current body will be able to fully recover my full strength!"
While Yunxiao felt that he had a more powerful ability, he was also faintly worried about whether his cultivation would not be able to recover because of reincarnation. At this time, Meng Tong, who saw this scene, couldn't help but be stunned, and the assassin led by him was shocked, and after a little hesitation, he was caught up by Yunxiao.
As soon as the clouds turned over in mid-air, it was like a roc spreading its wings from the sky, pounced on the assassin, the assassin gritted his teeth, the dagger in his hand came out of his hand, turned around and was about to escape, but he heard the sound of the dagger breaking above his head, and involuntarily looked up, and found that the dagger that had just come out of his hand had been crushed by the person who came with his bare hands with the claws of the eagle.
This assassin is worthy of being an experienced fellow, and at the critical moment, I saw him clapping his two hands, and with a soft pop, the whole person was suddenly enveloped in a pink smoke.
"If you want to run, can you walk?"
The assassin didn't expect that his poisonous mist would not be able to hurt his opponent at all, and in his secret horror, his two hands shook, and a wrist sword more than a foot long appeared on his wrist, and his body jumped up, turning into a sword shadow and stabbing straight at the attacking opponent.
Yunxiao saw that the opponent was fighting back to death, but the momentum was also amazing, and he immediately changed his decision to kill the opponent immediately, only to see him perform the Heavenly Demon Powerful Eagle Claw Skill, his claws staggered down, and instantly grabbed the wrist sword on the assassin's wrist, and then pressed his two hands on the assassin's chest and the top of his head.
When the Assassin realized that he had missed and was about to bite the poison hidden in his teeth, he suddenly found that his whole body was stiff, his slightly open mouth could no longer be closed, and he fell straight to the ground, but he did not feel any pain.
"His Royal Highness, the last general failed to complete his mission, please punish His Royal Highness!"
"Meng Tong get up, I don't blame you, I was too careless, I didn't expect my opponent to take the first step!"
Yunxiao said, walked towards the old man, and when he walked to the old man's side, he found that the old man's face was purple and black, and he had already died.
"What a vicious method!"
Yunxiao looked at the old man's corpse and secretly rejoiced, fortunately he left a tracking mark on the broken piece of silver that he gave the old man, otherwise he would not have been able to arrive in time.
"Yin-Yang Dao Method, Spiritualism!"
As he began to cast the spell, a silver light appeared on his body, which instantly covered the old man's body, and soon the old man's body gradually gained some temperature, but he never woke up.
"Why did I fail?"
Yunxiao didn't understand why his spiritualism could save Ning Gongzi, but he couldn't save the old man. After thinking about it, he decided to try again.
Both Meng Tong and the Assassin saw this scene, neither of them believing that Yunxiao could resurrect the dead old man, but then they saw Yunxiao take out a dark green orb from his arms.
Before the reincarnation of the poison spirit bead in the clouds, it had already recovered because of the poison emitted from the soul leaving array, and when he was reincarnated, his cultivation broke through to the earth immortal realm, and this treasure had completely recovered all its strength, and it could even be advanced again.
As the poison spirit bead emitted a dark green light, soon the poison on the old man's corpse was sucked away by the poison spirit bead.
"Sure enough, it's poison from the Voodoo cult!"
Yunxiao looked at the immobile assassin on the ground, and his thoughts turned sharply, the assassin didn't know that the prince of Zhennan in front of him was deciding whether to kill him or not, this guy had already gone back and forth in front of the ghost gate a few times in a few breaths.
"Boy, this old man doesn't have any cultivation at all, after he died, his soul was immediately taken away by the power of the underworld, if I guessed correctly, his soul has already arrived in the city of vain death at this time!"
At this time, the soul lamp appeared, circled around the old man's body, and was more sure of his opinion, Yunxiao hurriedly asked:
"Dead City, somewhere in the underworld?"
"You find a safe place, I will open the passage to the underworld, I will take you to the city of vain death, you must be fast, otherwise before dawn, if you don't come back from the underworld with the old man's soul, he will never come back!"
The assassin and Meng Tong were immediately frightened when they saw that something like a small flame suddenly appeared in front of Yunxiao, and was able to speak, and it was obvious that the little flame was a ghost.
For Meng Tong and the assassins, they are not afraid of the monsters, but they can't accept that Yunxiao can master the ghosts, Meng Tong is better, he is not worried that he will be okay if he knows these secrets of the prince, he has served the Zhennan Wangfu since he was sensible, even if he dies ten thousand times, he will not betray the Zhennan Wangfu, and the assassin is different, although he mustered up the courage to take poison and commit suicide before, but it was forced, no one wants to die, but at this moment he is really afraid of death.
For this assassin, the prince of Zhennan, who was able to master the power of ghosts, was beyond the limits of his psychological capacity, and he did not want to become a human and ghost, so he decided to beg for mercy:
"Your Royal Highness, please spare my life, I am willing to serve the prince for the rest of my life!"
"Soul Lamp, is there a way to keep this guy from revealing my secrets!"
Meng Tong's loyalty was not doubted, but he must not be merciful to the assassins who begged for mercy.
"Yes, but I need that old fellow from the exorcist to cooperate with me, but it's too conspicuous here, and I have to go to a safe place!"
"I see!"
Yunxiao turned to look at Meng Tong, Meng Tong hurriedly faced him, stabbed his arm with the sword in his hand, and made a blood oath, vowing not to betray Yunxiao. The blood oath is an oath that can be performed in the Xuan Qi realm, and once the oath maker betrays the oath he has made, the blood will explode and die immediately, which is the most effective way to control the monk.
Yunxiao saw this scene, then nodded with satisfaction, and asked:
"Meng Tong, where is this neighborhood safe enough!" (To be continued.) )
