(Today, there are 8,000 words in these two chapters, and there are a lot of manuscripts, which will not be interrupted, please collect, for new books, the number of collections is related to life and death, thank you!)
Yuan Bao did not mean to embarrass this group of sailor soldiers, this was the regular army of the imperial court, and he didn't dare to make a mistake with his three guts.
The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.
A cultivator is a person who is pursuing the eternal secret between the Heavenly Dao of Immortality and the universe. It's just a handful of people who are hidden in the valley. Although he has a strong cultivation, he can't confront the imperial court.
The current emperor Zhu Yuanzhang is the true son of heaven, with a real dragon body, control of the social artifact, and hundreds of millions of living beings, it can be said that he is the most powerful person in the world at present.
However, the cultivation realm and mortal dust have been in their own systems since ancient times, and with the lofty status of today's Kunlun head Taixuan Zhenren, it is no worse than Zhu Yuanzhang, when Zhu Yuanzhang defeated Chen Youliang and was crowned emperor, the first thing was to go to Kunlun Mountain to knock on Taixuan Zhenren.
After 20 years of development, Zhu Yuanzhang also secretly cultivated a lot of forces to compete with the Xiuzhen world, one is to win over the Quanzhen Taoist faction, and the other is to secretly form a royal Xiuzhen group, recruiting a large number of loose cultivators.
However, it is still far from enough for the Royal Cultivation Troupe to compete with the cultivation realm, the five major factions alone have all evolved and developed for thousands of years, and the foundation is profound, the Royal Cultivation Troupe has only been established for twenty years, and its strength is at most a medium sect in the cultivation realm, and the number will not exceed a thousand.
Yuan Bao saw that the water army in front of him didn't seem to want to be with Zhao Chengwen, and even borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and said with a smile: "Since the general is also acting on orders, I am not embarrassed, so don't let it go." ”
He swept through the air and flew across the water.
Fang Ling'er, who had already traveled a few miles away, had a complicated expression at the moment, she had just seen Yuan Bao flying in the air, jumping a few feet, and sinking those few clippers with a single move, which was definitely beyond the power of manpower, and she had already guessed in her heart that Yuan Bao was a legendary strange man in the mountains. In my heart, I was afraid, excited, and yearning.
Rhubarb was lying on the deck, not worried about the ingots at all, just like when he said that he was not worried about the old man of Tianchi at all.
But suddenly, the big yellow eyes glared, and stood up violently, the green eyes glowing faintly in the darkness, and it stared at the water, as if it sensed an unknown danger coming.
Fang Ling'er, who was waiting anxiously in the dark, also felt the strangeness of the rhubarb beside her, touched the rhubarb's head, and said, "Rhubarb, what's wrong with you?"
The rhubarb body was agitated, let out a rapid scream, and then bit Fang Ling'er's trouser leg and dragged it into the cabin.
Fang Ling'er was taken aback, she got along with Rhubarb these two times, knowing that Rhubarb was an old dog surnamed Ge Docile, who had always been very good to her, but at this moment, she was like crazy, biting her trouser leg, something must be wrong.
"Is there danger?!" Fang Ling'er was very intelligent, and hurriedly bent down and got into the cabin, and the rhubarb on the deck bared its fangs and barked wildly at the river.
Suddenly, a huge column of water rose from the side of the boat, and the impact almost knocked the boat over. The rhubarb was instantly wet by the river, but it was not afraid at all, and still stood on the deck, with the hair on its whole body standing on end.
"Water Demon?" the sudden change startled the boss who was at the helm behind, and hurriedly controlled the boat so that it would not overturn.
The huge column of water fell with a loud bang, and the entire cabin was poured into the water, and it swayed even more in the huge waves.
The fishermen and boatmen who beg for a life in the water believe in the dragon king water demon the most, the waves are rolling in front of them, the huge waves are monstrous, and the narrow ghost is like the end of the world, and it is definitely the water demon of the underwater dragon palace.
"Wangwang......" rhubarb suddenly jumped up and rushed straight to the surface of the river, as if he was about to enter the water to fight the unknown force below.
"Boom!" another column of water rose into the sky, rushing the rhubarb that had just jumped into the air. Rhubarb roared and was rushed to the deck. He rolled around the deck several times, and his eyes were fierce.
The ingots were coming on their feet, and their minds were still thinking that they had done another good deed. Suddenly, he heard the terrible and rapid cry of rhubarb from the darkness in front of him, and then he heard the sound of booming and booming, he was startled in his heart, shouted that it was not good, and sped up his body and swept over.
Gradually, he saw that half of the hull of the boat had sunk, Old Man Fang had fallen into the water, Ling'er was holding the rail pole above the upturned deck, and Rhubarb was screaming wildly.
"Water Demon?!" Yuan Bao's face changed greatly, and he saw a huge tentacle burst out from the bottom of the water and smashed into the really sinking boat, if it was hit by that tentacle, the boat would be torn apart in an instant.
At this moment, the ingots came out with a sword, and the black sword light was like a black lightning bolt in the darkness, shooting from a few zhang away, and it came in an instant. The tentacle was instantly cut into two, and blood rained down.
Yuan Bao swept to the deck, hugged Fang Ling'er, who was pale and wet, and shouted: "Who is the water demon, dare to be presumptuous here." ”
Ling'er was hugged by Yuanbao, her mind was a little calm, she knew that this young man was very capable, as long as he was there, he would be safe.
"Huh!" a dull sound like a wild buffalo roared from the bottom of the water, and then a figure flew out of the water, it turned out to be the old man, at this moment the old man was covered in wounds, and there were several shocking wounds on his neck, which were deep in the bones, and he couldn't survive.
"Grandpa!" Fang Ling'er exclaimed, broke free from the embrace of the ingot, and jumped up and hugged the old Fang is body.
"Ling'er...... Quick, run...... Water Monster ...... The water demon ......" The old man grabbed Fang Ling'er's arm tightly, as if his nails were all buckled into the flesh of Fang Ling'er's arm.
"Grandpa! no!" the spirit in the darkness hissed and roared. At this moment, she seemed to be a demon.
Yuan Bao saw that the old party who had been with him for a few days had lost his surname, his eyes were about to split, he broke off, and the dragon sword in his hand came out of the sword again, the sword light flickered, and a water mark of dozens of zhang suddenly appeared on the water surface, and the next moment, the water mark exploded, forming two huge water walls with a height of more than ten zhang.
"Huh!" The demon beast at the bottom of the river seemed to be hit, and let out a cry of pain, and after a while, the surrounding water surface suddenly surged like a river and a sea, and it was like a tsunami that set off a huge wave of water, rolling towards the boat where the ingots were located.
Yuan Bao's eyes were cold, and the dragon slashing sword glowed with dazzling white light under the urging of his true yuan, he did not perform his best sword cutting style, but slashed out horizontally, and the huge water wave that flew was split in an instant.
Almost at the same time as the water wave was broken, dozens of black tentacles with buckets thick and more than ten zhang long rushed out from the bottom of the water, and under the moonlight, those huge black tentacles were terrifying, like the evil claws stretched out of hell.
Yuan Bao shouted: "Broken." ”
With a swing of the Dragon Slaying Sword, all the dozens of black tentacles were instantly cut off by the sword light, falling into the water like rain, and in a moment, this area of the river was dyed red.
Suddenly, the whole world seemed to be quiet, clouds rose, slowly covering the bright starlight, in the dark, I don't know when, the boat sank halfway and then it didn't sink, only Fang Ling'er's heart-rending cry. The scream, in this night, seemed to be like a backlog of resentment and sorrow for thousands of years to explode in an instant.
"Grandpa, wake up, wake up, don't leave Ling'er...... Fang Ling'er's tears were like a gushing fountain, uncontrollable. She lost her parents when she was a child and lived in the rivers and lakes, and her grandfather raised her. Although there is no blood relationship, but in the past ten years, they have been connected by blood, Fang Laohan is even more poor and has to save money to let her learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, in Fang Ling'er's heart, grandpa is her only relative.
A strange sound came from behind Yuanbao, and a faint firelight slowly lit up from behind him, as if something suddenly burned. Looking for the trace of the water demon, Yuan Bao heard the voice and glanced back slightly, and his face really changed dramatically.
Two flames appeared on Fang Ling'er's back and burned violently against her skin, the flames were extremely strange, with a bit of blue light in the crimson, and Fang Ling'er didn't seem to feel the existence of the flames behind her at all, still holding her grandfather's corpse tightly.
"This ......" Rao is ingot, well-informed, was also stunned by the scene in front of him, reached out to touch one of the flames, and suddenly felt extremely hot, but the moment he touched it, his palm burned red.
"Miss Ling'er!" Yuan Bao shouted with his palms in his hands.
Ling'er finally raised her head and put down her grandfather's corpse, and there were obviously two flames burning violently in those originally clear and bright eyes at this moment, and there seemed to be a red spirit bird spreading its wings and flying in the flames.
In the distance, in the dark, on a small boat.
The old man of Tianchi stood, looking at the two strange flames of light in the distance, and said slowly: "You have got your wish, Phoenix Nirvana, Phoenix Dance for nine days." ”
The mysterious woman's eyes were red, and she laughed wildly: "I have long known that she will have a day of transformation, for sixty years, I have been waiting for this day all the time, Feng Wu Nine Days, only Feng Wu Nine Days can restrain the reincarnation sword technique, but Kong Fang is dead!"
The old man of Tianchi sighed and said, "Why are you so cruel, if you really want to kill him, I don't think Zhuge Kong Fang will fight back." ”
"That's what he owes me!" the mysterious woman shouted: "Don't think that I will let him go easily when he dies, I will let his flesh and blood fall in love with his heirs, and then kill each other, and never die!"
For the first time, the old man Tianchi's face changed drastically, and he was stunned: "You mean that you were pregnant with Kong Fang......'s child back then?" It's her?! It turns out that you have already calculated the date, today is her sixteenth birthday, and it is the best time for her to unlock the phoenix bloodline!"
"That's right, the show has just begun, the hidden dragon comes out of the abyss, and the phoenix dances for nine days...... This dragon and phoenix fight is destined to have one person who will never recover!"
In the distance, on the river, Fang Ling'er at this moment seemed to be a different person, no longer the weak little girl she usually was, her whole body exuded a terrifying momentum, and she couldn't directly face this momentum with Yuanbao's Dao cultivation at this time.
"Ahh Under the fluttering of wings, countless fires splashed everywhere, and the entire river suddenly ignited a raging fire. After a while, the bottom of the water rolled violently, and a hoarse and silent beast roar came, and gradually, the corpse of a huge mysterious water demon appeared on the surface of the river, and countless tentacles and the huge body of more than ten zhang in size began to burn.
Around Fang Ling'er is body, Zhang Yu seemed to have formed an invisible air cover, enveloping ingots and rhubarb, otherwise they would also die under this endless heavenly fire.
This mysterious flame, the outside is the red lotus karmic fire, and the inside is the samadhi true fire, which can burn all things in the world, Yuan Bao opened his mouth wide, and a thought flashed in his heart, "Phoenix, Ling'er girl is a phoenix?!"
Only a phoenix can send out such a powerful heavenly fire!
Today, human beings are not the only intelligent life, there are also demons and ghosts.
The phoenix is the emperor of the demon clan, the same name as the divine dragon, and it is an ancient spirit animal.
The phoenix has not appeared in the world for thousands of years, and Yuan Bao can't figure out why Ling'er in front of him has a phoenix bloodline. It seems that this is a human phoenix, which is born from the combination of the demon people and humans with the blood of the phoenix, and there is a saying: The dragon and phoenix among the people are to describe them. The bloodline is not the purest, otherwise it will directly transform into the body of a phoenix bathing in fire, and no one in the world can stop it.
In the pain of losing a loved one just now, the phoenix bloodline hidden in the depths of Fang Ling'er's soul finally awakened, emitting a power that shook the heavens and the earth.
Rhubarb is also a demon clan, feeling the pressure from the phoenix, he involuntarily lay on the deck, his limbs were prostrate, his eyes were full of awe, and he didn't dare to move.
Fang Ling'er slowly turned her head and looked at Yuanbao, who shouted, "Ling'er, are you awake or is your body not under your control?"
The flames in Fang Ling'er's eyes dissipated slightly, but suddenly, for some reason, they rose up again, flapping their wings, and the entire boat shattered. The ingots and rhubarb were caught off guard and all fell into the water, the blazing flames fell from the sky, and the ingots transported the true yuan of the whole body to fight against it, but the heavenly fire sent by the phoenix was just to the yang, and the power was overwhelming. The ingots are just the cultivation of the realm of the Imperial Sky Period, where can they resist it.
Or rhubarb is smart, a fierce man drilled into the bottom of the river to cool down and avoid the fire. The ingots meridians were greatly damaged, and the breath was not smooth, so they hurriedly dived down.
In a radius of dozens of zhang, strange flames burned violently on the surface of the river, and the corpse of the terrifying water demon emitted a disgusting stench in the burning.
I don't know when, the flames on the river gradually went out, Yuan Bao struggled to dive up, and felt that a black shadow fell quickly on his head, and when he fixed his eyes, it was Fang Ling'er, who had recovered his human appearance, and smashed deeply into the river.
