Chapter 444: The Suspicion of Murder and Robbery
After the wedding of Chaoge, everyone returned to their place. 【Reading.com】
Han Zhixian and Ying Long and his wife went to West Kunlun, Yueji returned to Eastern Qi under the escort of Yuyi Immortal, Kong Xuan and Xingtian returned to Biyou Palace, Sanxiao and Princess Longji also prepared to return to Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion, while Jiang Wenqiang, Yang Jiu, Huang Feiyan, Shang Qingjun and Deng Chanyu stayed in Chaoge.
Zhang Zixing issued an order, the troops were divided into three routes, and Jiang Wenhuan's troops were sent to support the pond to fight against the Western Zhou, Wen Zhong led the army to block the northern army of the ghost side, while Hong Jin led the troops to block the southern army of Eshun.
However, these three-way armies only played a role in confusion and delay, making Ji Fa think that after the marriage of the Son of Heaven, the Great Shang would do his best to make the last struggle, and he could also delay the time for a while to complete some important things that were needed, such as the drill of the Zhuxian Array and the Four Elephant Arrays.
After arranging the three-way army, Zhang Zixing followed Sanxiao and Princess Longji back to the Xianfu Mansion, not that he wanted to take the four girls to the Xianfu to "steal food", but to check the construction and layout of the Xianfu for more than a year. Once the battle of Shang and Zhou and the Zhuxian Array are over, no matter which path Zhang Zixing chooses in the end, this Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion will be his real base in the future.
Shang Qingjun knew the significance of the Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion to Zhang Zixing, and for more than a year, although he was in Chaoge, he had poured a lot of effort into this Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion flower, and basically completed the construction of the entire Xianfu in accordance with Zhang Zixing's prior plan.
It can be said that Shang Qingjun not only completely relocated the planned large-scale military base, but also built many corresponding supporting and offensive and defensive facilities with the help of construction robots and computers. The entire Immortal Mansion is equivalent to a huge fortress that mixes immortal magic and technological weapons.
When the Demon God Clan learned that the leader had returned, he led everyone on the island to greet him, and when Zhang Zixing saw Ji Sheng, he suddenly thought of the incident that promised Fei Lian back then, and couldn't help but move in his heart. When Lu Bi and the others saw Zhang Zixing, they were all taken aback, not only because the leader's strength had regressed greatly, but also because the "mark" on his forehead, which represented the strongest supreme demon body, was gone.
In fact, this is because when Zhang Zixing was injured by the cloud piercing arrow that restrained and destroyed the demonic power, the demonic body power almost collapsed, and then when he slept in the mountains and rivers community diagram, the various forces in the body gradually became one, and they were perfectly contained in the vast Taiji Nebula, as if returning to the basics, and the mark of the demonic body disappeared.
Zhang Zixing praised while watching, obviously very satisfied with the construction of the Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion. He thought of the failure of the last time he used the power of the Demon Domain to collect the Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion, and he had the heart to try again, so he immediately ordered everyone to withdraw from the Immortal Mansion and began to exert their magical powers.
Everyone obeyed the order and retreated to the island outside, Zhang Zixing was suspended in front of the Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion, took a deep breath, and the immortal power gradually gathered. On the distant island, Lu Bi and the others only felt an invisible pressure coming from Zhang Zixing's body, this pressure was so terrifying that even a golden immortal like Lu Bi couldn't help but tremble, and the churning sea water also became strangely static under the action of this force, and a large area of the sea near it seemed to be solidified. The outer part is still turbulent, while the inner side is silent, but it is like another "world", and in this world, he is the master of everything.
The power of this kind of Demon Domain, even if it is a great demon god in the primeval world, I am afraid that it is nothing more than that! Lu Bi and the others were extremely shocked in their hearts: it had only been a year, and the power of this leader had already risen to such a terrifying level! This kind of cultivation speed was not only unprecedented, but also unprecedented. However, they didn't know that in fact, Zhang Zixing had been cultivating in the Mountains and Rivers Society for quite a long time, and the time spent on this cultivation was the longest he had ever done.
Sanxiao and Princess Longji had bright eyes, full of pride and adoration - as a woman, she hoped that the man she loved would be as good as possible. As one "master" put it: in order to gain a woman's love, you must have their real appreciation, not sympathy.
Under the control of Zhang Zixing's divine thoughts, the huge immortal mansion floated and sank in the air as if it were nothing, but Zhang Zixing's brows furrowed. His current Demon Domain was completely different from before, not only the power of the Demon God, but also the power of various castes in his body, which could be directly called "Domain".
The entire condensed sea area belonged to the scope of his domain, and just when he wrapped the immortal mansion with the power of the domain, he instinctively felt a strange repulsion. This kind of repulsion is somewhat similar to a certain essential difference, and it is precisely because of this difference that even if he can destroy the Immortal Mansion in the realm, he will not be able to truly incorporate it into the realm.
Zhang Zixing used his divine thoughts to control the Immortal Mansion to make various movements with extremely high "difficulty coefficients" in the air, and at the same time, he wondered, the Demon God Clan on the side didn't know about this, and when he showed his strength, they cheered loudly, making Zhang Zixing secretly embarrassed.
Zhang Zixing thought that the Tongtian Sect Master had said that his cultivation was strange and different from the ordinary, so he couldn't collect the Immortal Mountain, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, and was about to put away the realm, when suddenly his heart moved: Although he couldn't include the Immortal Mansion in the realm, with his current level of strength, it was easy to control the Immortal Mansion. After the transformation, the Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion is considered to be fully equipped, and with the ability to maneuver now, it is not only a strong fortress for passive defense, but equivalent to a battleship with various functions such as movement and loading...... As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Zixing immediately restored the Immortal Mansion, and quickly contacted Shang Qingjun, asking her to immediately transport a large amount of energy and materials according to her own requirements, and issued corresponding transformation and construction instructions to the computer.
At this time, the Demon God Clan had already admired the powerful power of the leader, and they had no doubts. In addition to these clansmen, there was also an outsider who also saw the terrifying power displayed by Zhang Zixing, and he was extremely frightened, this person was one of the Quartet Immortal Emperors who was captured by Yunxiao back then, the Black Emperor.
In the Black Emperor's opinion, Zhang Zixing's current strength has definitely reached the level of the top-level Xuan Immortal, and he is only afraid that he will be above the Haotian God who has the power of the Heavenly Position!
When Zhang Zixing was reminded by the clouds and began to interrogate the captive, the Black Emperor showed unexpected cooperation.
Zhang Zixing's interrogation of the Black Emperor was mainly to find out about the situation in the Heavenly Realm, in addition, his true martial spirit recipe was said to have come from Emperor Xuan, and he didn't know if it had a relationship with the Black Emperor, so he wanted to learn about it by the way. The Black Emperor Juice Xianji was intimidated by his strength, and he had the intention to subdue and save his life, so he immediately said everything.
The thirty-three days of the Heavenly Realm is a general statement, and in fact it is not equivalent to the existence of thirty-three layers of space, but is equivalent to the thirty-three parts of a space. The Great Central Heaven where the God of Haotian and the Golden Mother of Yaochi are located, although there is only one "heaven", the scope is the most vast, far better than the rest of the land, and there are eight days in the south, east and west, a total of thirty-two days, collectively known as thirty-three days.
These thirty-three days each have the power of the rank, of which the Great Central Heaven is the strongest, but the power of the rank of the thirty-two days of the Quartet is not trivial, and the origin of the power of the four directions is taken from the power of the four divine beasts of the Green Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Xuanwu when Hongmeng was first broken.
Zhang Zixing has long had doubts about the "traditional" four holy beasts or four divine beasts of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu, and Yunxiao and others only know one scale and half a claw, and they can't go into detail, while Kong Xuan seems to know some inside information, but he doesn't want to say more, it's not reluctant. When he heard this, he immediately became interested and asked the Black Emperor to talk about them one by one.
The Black Emperor was sealed by Hongjun, and as the Northern Immortal Emperor, he knew many unknown secrets.
According to the Black Emperor, when Hongmeng was first broken and yin and yang were separated, there were four gases of earth, water, fire, and wind, which were the initial spirits, and the four qi were mixed, and another qi was born, turning into the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Earth, water, fire, and wind? Could it be a magic novel? Zhang Zixing frowned, and was about to speak, when he suddenly thought that the Tongtian Sect Master in the original book had the words "reopen the earth, water, fire, and wind, and change the world", and his heart was clear, and he immediately let the Black Emperor continue.
The Qi of the Five Elements gave birth to various primordial beings, among them, the Green Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Xuanwu obtained the essence of the Qi in the earth, water, fire, and wind, and the Qilin that came out of the confusion merged with the Five Elements. Many later beings were born out of this. Therefore, there is a saying that "the beast is long with the unicorn, and the bird is long with the phoenix (vermilion)".
However, the surnames of these five divine beasts were mutually restrictive, and there were contradictions between them, and the struggle began to escalate. In the primeval times, it seems to have triggered a fierce battle between the various "systems" of creatures. This great battle was extremely tragic, and many living beings were wiped out because of it, and the terrible battle of these five "systems" caused the five qi to clash with each other, triggering a catastrophe that shook the universe. In the end, this war was finally quelled due to the sacrifice of countless living beings, and the chaos of the five qi was finally quelled. It's just that the outcome of the victory or defeat is unknown, and many secrets have not been revealed, resulting in an unsolved case. Gradually, over time, it also faded in people's hearts.
Zhang Zixing's heart was shocked: The sacrifice of the surnames of countless living beings has quelled the chaos of the five qi? Could it be that this is the killing robbery? Or is this the origin of the killing and robbery?
Then, there are many battles between the various creatures, the largest is the battle between the demon clan and the demon god clan, the result is the well-known defeat of both sides, after the end of the demon war, Daozu Hongjun divided the heavenly status level, Feng Haotian, Jin Mu as the emperor of heaven, ruling the heavenly realm, and the Quartet 32 days were respectively ruled by Lingwei Yang, Chi Yanfu, Bai Zhao Rejection, and Juice Xianji, divided into the Blue Emperor, the Red Emperor, the White Emperor, and the Black Emperor.
According to Juice Xianji's memory, since she was named the Black Emperor back then, she already had the "position" power of Xuanwu's water, but this rank power is only a vast power that can be called, not its own power like Zhang Zixing. As for the Xuan Emperor, it seems that he was transformed by a remnant of Xuanwu's divine thoughts, aiming to "pass on the fire to the end", so that the immortal recipe of the ontology can be passed on, and Suzaku also has a similar fire bathing secret technique passed on to the Feng clan, and there are many such examples.
Xuanwu seems to have some connection with the Demon God Clan, so when Chi You received the teaching of this true martial spirit technique, the jade plate that Yun Zhongzi gave to Zhang Zixing at the beginning may also be related to the remnant of the divine thoughts. The Xuan Emperor appeared several times, and then disappeared without a trace due to the dissipation of divine thoughts, so many immortals who did not understand often confused the Black Emperor with the Xuan Emperor.
This time, the Quartet Immortal Emperor came to the Xiaoyao Immortal Mansion to deal with Zhang Zixing, not just to be invited by the Heavenly Emperor and Queen of Heaven to hold grievances, but actually for the benefits promised by Haotian God and Yaochi Golden Mother. The promise of the two was that as long as they destroyed the Xiaoyaozi and the Demon God Clan, they would allow the Four Immortal Emperors to expand the territory of the Four Heavens, and give a part of the strongest rank power of the Central Heaven to the Four Immortal Emperors.
For a long time, the Four Immortals Yanjing had their own rank forces and was not subject to the control of the Heavenly Emperor, but after all, the Heavenly Emperor was the lord of the Great Central Heaven and even the entire Heavenly Realm, and the power of the rank was higher than that of the Four Immortal Emperors. The status of the Emperor of Heaven and the Immortal Emperor of the Four Directions is not trivial, and this matter is raised in public and cannot be repented, so the four of them all agreed to it.
Now that the Black Emperor has been captured, he knows that Haotian and Jin Mu are actually trying to get rid of the Quartet Immortal Emperor by the hand of Xiaoyaozi, or let both sides lose and then collect the benefits of the fisherman. As long as the Immortal Emperor of the Four Directions dies, Haotian and Jin Mu, who are the supreme rulers of the Heavenly Realm, can dominate the power of the entire Thirty-three Days Rank, multiplying their strength, and can also collect the forces of the Four Heavens for their own, which can be described as a multiplicity.
Of course, the Black Emperor didn't know that in fact, Haotian and the Golden Mother used this battle as bait to lure the Three Emperors to come to help, so that the Holy Mother of Wudang successfully stole the divine whip and came out, and had already obtained the greatest "fisherman's benefit".
After listening to the Black Emperor's story, Zhang Zixing also had a certain understanding of the specific situation in the Heavenly Realm, but what he was most concerned about was the battle of the five ancient divine beasts, because this might be related to the source of the killing robbery, and perhaps, he could find a fundamental way to eliminate the killing robbery from within. It's just that the Black Emperor only knows about this, so Zhang Zixing decided to find out about the matter with the Tongtian Sect Master the next time he goes to Biyou Palace.
As for the disposal of the Black Emperor, although this juice Xianji has a special charm of a poisonous widow, and he looks like he is at will, Zhang Zixing's wife has enough, and she is not hungry and hungry, so she doesn't have any extra thoughts, but just promises to spare her surname, and let Yunxiao imprison her cultivation and temporarily imprison her in the Immortal Mansion.
At this time, Zhang Zixing missed the ice and snow a little. If there is ice and snow, maybe you can also play a good show of incarnating as a black emperor to disturb the heavenly realm. It's a pity that since Bing Xue sent back a message from the Jade Void Palace, his whereabouts have been unknown, and there is no communication information, so he must have been in big trouble.
Ice and snow are unique, not only strong in strength, but also in skills, which can be regarded as miraculous feats, but now there is no news, which makes Zhang Zixing worried.
In the Heavenly Realm, Haotian God and Yaochi Golden Mother have been proud of the spring breeze this year, not to mention the matter of beating the divine whip, the power of the thirty-two heavens in the four directions has been absorbed by the Great Central Heaven, in addition to the north, the power of the east, south, and west ranks has also been fused by the two. What makes the two even happier is that the most hated Xiaoyaozi has no news, although there is no trace of Xuanji Zhenren and Lu Press, but all kinds of signs indicate that Xiaoyaozi has indeed disappeared, and it is likely that he has been plotted by Xuanji Zhenren and Lu Press.
Of course, there have been some disturbing things recently, rumors that the heavenly realm has been invaded by some terrible demon. The demonic powers are very powerful, and the victims often disappear mysteriously, leaving only empty robes at the scene, and presumably even the entire immortal body has been sucked up. And this demon is very good at the art of hiding traces, and extremely cunning, after seeing the target succeeded, immediately escaped, without stopping, the heavenly realm has also sent a special person to monitor, hunt down, but nothing was found, can only determine that this demon is a female surname.
Haotian God's surname is suspicious, and he has always acted cautiously, thinking of the fact that Taiwei Zhenren was plotted by Xiaoyaozi's "female apprentice" Bing Xue in Shouyang Mountain, he vaguely guessed something, and did not dare to take it lightly, and strengthened the vigilance of the heavenly realm, especially in the area of Yaochi and Lingxiao Tianfu, and the vicinity was guarded by heavy troops.
"You two teams, go to the area of the Green Willow Immortal Forest to patrol in a roundabout way, and the other two teams guard the White Jade Heavenly Steps......" In the side hall of Lingxiao Heavenly Mansion, a person who looks like a heavenly general is assigning various teams of heavenly soldiers to patrol.
The detachment of the heavenly soldiers led the order, and after the order of the heavenly general was completed, he and the remaining team continued to enter the gate of the side hall protected by mana. However, none of the Heavenly Soldiers noticed that on the ground behind them, a translucent thing was sneaking forward silently under the cover of its own discoloration and environmental color, and the source of this transparent thing was the feet of the Heavenly General who pointed at him.
These Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals only knew that the demon was good at the technique of concealment, so what they used was the method of defending against ordinary immortals, and with this kind of defense, even if it was a Xuan Immortal, it was impossible to break through all kinds of defenses silently. Unbeknownst to them, the target possessed a very different power than the Immortals, and that she also had an ability called Assimilation.
She was not as vicious as Zhang Zixing imagined, but by chance, she got the news of the whip in the heavenly realm from the mouth of an unexpected person, and secretly followed someone to the heavenly realm in a hurry, so she lost contact with the ground.
Bing Xue has used the ability to devour and assimilate to obtain the memories of many people, including many high-ranking heavenly generals and heavenly officials, and one is actually a fairy who has an ambiguous relationship with the god of Haotian. Therefore, she was more familiar with the terrain in Lingxiao Tianfu, although the scale of the entire Tianfu was extremely large, she was familiar with the road, and she did not feel lost at all.
She used her transformation ability to carefully bypass the dense defenses all the way, and patiently advanced towards her destination step by step, this time the place where the ice and snow were going was the Treasure Pavilion in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.
Those devouring memories showed that Haotian God seemed to be particularly nervous about Lingxiao Heavenly Mansion recently, and sent a large number of people to guard against it, and the Treasure Pavilion in Lingxiao Heavenly Mansion was the place where Haotian God Pingping placed important treasures. According to the information provided by the owner, the Whip is different from ordinary magic weapons, and it cannot be collected in a magic bag like ordinary treasures, so it will definitely be stored somewhere.
After a period of time, the ice and snow really sneaked into the area of the Treasure Pavilion, which was a high-rise building, which seemed to be made of white jade, with a faint golden light, which looked very mysterious. Perhaps because of the secrecy of the Treasure Pavilion, unlike the layers of strict defense in other places, the number of troops outside the Treasure Pavilion is not as large as imagined, but there may be other sinister mechanisms inside.
Strangely, the ice and snow did not enter the Treasure Pavilion and did not stay here, but after turning around, it quickly headed in the other direction.
——Since the last time she was fooled in the Mixed Clouds Secret Realm and was seriously injured by a fake whip, Bing Xue has also been a lot more careful, and through the analysis of various signs, she has judged that the Treasure Pavilion is only afraid of being a trap, just to trap and kill her, a "demon". And judging from the memories obtained by the fairy, the place where God Haotian has stayed the most recently is Tianyou Pavilion, and even the location of "cheating" has been chosen there, which is very different from the past. Therefore, it is very likely that this is the real hiding place of the Whip.
Tianyou Pavilion is already in front of you, and the defense and strength here are far superior to the rest of the locations, which can be described as impassable, but Bing Xue is fully confident that he can pass through this level of defense and directly enter Tianyou Pavilion without alarming the enemy.
However, the arrangement in the Tianyou Pavilion is only afraid that it is far better than the periphery, and there is a strong enemy like Haotian God, and the most important thing is that it is impossible to know where Haotian God will hide the Divine Whip, and the ice and snow are diving in, and his mind is thinking quickly.
Suddenly, there was an explosion in the distance, and I saw the flames rushing to the sky, and that location should be the area of the Treasure Pavilion. Immediately after that, the explosions rang out one after another, and the guards outside the Treasure Pavilion immediately became a mess.
The heavenly soldiers and generals guarding Tianyou Pavilion were also taken aback, the figure of Haotian God appeared on the Qiong Tower of Tianyou Pavilion, as if looking at the situation of the Treasure Pavilion, Bing Xue noticed: Haotian God was empty-handed, and he did not hold the whip, presumably where he was hiding in Qiong Tower.
Haotian God was observing the situation in the distance, and suddenly, the explosion sounded again, and the location was the Lingxiao Hall and the Tongming Hall, and the entire Tianfu suddenly showed a chaotic image. Immediately afterward, there was a deafening sound everywhere, which extended to this day. The power of this explosion was very powerful, and some of the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals in the Heavenly You Pavilion were unlucky, and they were blown to pieces, and the explosion lasted for a long time.
God Haotian didn't care about the life or death of his subordinates, but he just held the magic weapon in his hand and stood in front of a room in the Qiong Tower, unmoved.
The sound of explosions was getting closer and closer, and many ornaments and treasures were blown to pieces along the way. At this time, a ray of light flew towards Qiong Tower, and a heavenly general flew up, sacrificing his life to protect him, but his whole body was blown apart, and the stumps burst out in all directions, and a small part flew to the front of Haotian God not far away. Haotian God's face did not move, and the Haotian Mirror in his hand actually shone at the stump, and it suddenly burst open, turning into a cloud of blood mist and scattering. Haotian God cautiously glanced at the bloodstain and found that there was nothing abnormal, and immediately shifted his attention to the front.
At this moment, a strange laugh faded away, accompanied by exaggerated explosions along the way.
Haotian God was suspicious, and when he saw that this strange laughter was far away, he immediately showed a suspicious look. When the laughter had completely subsided, he immediately opened the forbidden door of the room, walked in, came to a nearby wall, and clicked the Taiji patterns in the room in a strange and complicated order. The pattern suddenly shone brightly, and now it came out of another space, and the god Haotian entered that space for a moment, and then walked out again, with a relaxed look on his face.
Suddenly, God Haotian seemed to be alert, looked around, but did not find any clues, and walked out of the room again.
In fact, even with Haotian God's caution, he couldn't detect that the little blood stains on the ground without mana fluctuations had already sneaked into that room silently.
(To be continued)
