Chapter 156: Mutation in the Void
Looking at Ye Zhichen, Xiong Ao felt overwhelmed with emotion.
Taoist Baijie is famous far and wide. He was famous even before he was born. He is a famous master among the monks still alive in the human world. The Dayan Dynasty did not dare to send troops to Taixu Palace for the fourth time in so many years. A large part of the reason was because there were three ancestors in Taixu Palace including Baijie Taoist.
The three of them are headed by Taoist Bai Jie, whose cultivation has far exceeded the level expected of a Dzogchen monk in the ascension stage. According to rumors, the three of them have entered the unknown realm and are at the absolute pinnacle of combat power in the human world. They have achieved enlightenment and proved themselves in the human world without ascending to the immortal world. They can be said to be living gods living in the human world.
There are similar figures in Dayan. Not only these two parties, but also among the many forces of human beings, monsters and ghosts in the entire human world, as long as they can be called overlord-level super forces, there are such a few top-notch beings. It is they who have preserved the status of their sects. and safety, deterring others from taking any rash action.
Although these people are powerful, they are already superior to monks. Unless they encounter a life and death crisis where the sect is destroyed and the inheritance is cut off, they will not be born easily.
They are too involved. Any movement, even just going out for a walk, is likely to cause a big turmoil, making people wonder whether the forces they belong to are preparing to make some big move.
And if they are targeted by some hostile forces to plot and kill them, then once they die, the sect they belong to will not be far from extinction.
Therefore, the most common thing these people do is to retreat. Firstly, they continuously increase their cultivation to extend their lifespan, and patiently wait for the day when the immortal gate opens to ascend to the immortal world. Secondly, they ensure their own safety while intimidating the surrounding world, and at the same time constantly Cultivate your own inheritance disciples so that after they ascend in the future, descendants will take their place and protect the safety of the sect.
At this time, Xiong Ao couldn't help but break down in cold sweat when he heard that Taoist Baijie was coming.
He is not afraid of Ye Zhichen, even if the peak master of any peak in Taixu Palace comes, he is not afraid. When Dayan's reinforcements arrived, he was confident of leading them to fight against the reinforcements from Taixu Palace.
But figures like Taoist Baijie are not within the normal calculation range.
Unless someone at the level of the Patriarch of Dayan protects the country comes in person, no matter how many people come, it will be a dead end. Some things cannot be solved by numbers of people.
Thinking secretly in his heart, Xiong Ao suddenly felt something in his heart and looked at Ye Zhichen without blinking.
"Senior Baijie is the ancestor of your Taixu Palace sect. It is impossible for you to easily set out for such a junior. If what you said is true, it means that the young master must have something worthy of his attention. This world can be alarmed. There are not many seniors in Baijie, and Senior Suwen had a good relationship with Tian Dao Zun when he was young. So, the master of the young master is really Tian Dao Zun? "
"Haha, what do you think?" Ye Zhichen was noncommittal.
Xiong Ao looked at his expression. Although the other party didn't say clearly whether it was true or not, Xiong Ao had already confirmed his guess in his heart.
Li Chuyi's master was the legendary Taoist Master of Heaven.
Thinking of his guess, Xiong Ao couldn't help but feel a little horrified.
Tian Daozun is the person Dayan has been looking for, and Li Chuyi has a significant relationship with Dayan.
After the incident, Li Chuyi disappeared. After so many years of tracing, Dayan had no results. They all thought that the child might have died long ago. Who knew that not only did he survive, but he also became the disciple of Tian Daozun. All of this The more Xiong Ao thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he felt hairy in his heart.
It's like an invisible big hand holds everything together, making many impossible things possible.
Knowing that procrastinating any longer would be detrimental to him, Xiong swung his ax in a starting motion.
"I have been studying hard for many years, and recently I have gained some new insights into using force to break the law. I would like to ask Brother Ye for advice today!"
Ye Zhichen knew that he wanted to decide the outcome with one move, so he smiled lightly and waved his sword gently.
"please!"
Xiong Ao's face became solemn, he summoned all his magic power, and when his momentum reached its peak, he raised his ax high.
"Strength breaks through the mountains and rivers!"
As he spoke, he took a step forward, as if he had traveled through space. He came to Ye Zhichen in just one step, and swung down the ax he held high.
Ye Zhichen's face also condensed, and his whole person exuded an extremely cold air, as if all emotions no longer existed in him. The pair of eyes on his expressionless face made people feel cold at first glance. Open your heart.
""Nirvana of Love" - Wuxin!"
The long sword moved, drawing a mysterious trajectory, and struck the side of the axe, slowly but urgently.
Ding
The two intersected, just like ordinary warriors among mortals fighting, only a gentle golden sound was emitted, without any violent fluctuations.
But in Li Chuyi's Yin Yang Dao eyes, countless dark cracks suddenly appeared at the intersection of the two weapons. Although they were fleeting, he could still clearly see the true nature of those cracks. They were space cracks, and any trace of them could not be traced. A space crack that could kill him.
After the move, both of them were shaken. Xiong Ao's giant ax was unloaded to the side, while Ye Zhichen's sword-holding hand trembled slightly, obviously feeling uncomfortable.
"Strength through Changhong!"
Without pausing, Xiong put away the axe, and struck again diagonally. The ax was a little stronger than before, but Ye Zhichen's expression became more solemn.
Instead of facing him with a sword like just now, Ye Zhichen's long sword shook continuously and hit both sides of the ax countless times in an instant. The sound of "ding, ding" was continuous, even through the void where the sound could not be transmitted. , Li Chuyi, who was still far away, heard it clearly, and felt as if his heart was about to twist into a ball.
After these countless blows, the mighty momentum of the big ax became weaker and weaker. Finally, Xiong Ao felt his hand go weak, and the big ax was finally blocked aside.
This time Ye Zhichen did not wait for the opponent to attack again, but turned his sword and attacked Xiong Ao.
"Heartbroken!"
Xiong Ao's expression changed, and he dragged his ax horizontally back to defend, blocking it in front of him like a door panel.
The long sword was blocked, and the tip of the sword hit the axe, making a crisp "ding" sound and then retreated back. Seeing this, Xiong Ao was about to withdraw the ax and attack again, but suddenly he felt the hair on his body stand on end, and a wave of fullness filled his body. The sword energy that means death is stabbing directly through the ax body.
"drink!"
With a loud roar, Xiong Jiang's free hand suddenly slapped the sword energy. The sword energy was scattered with a palm, but a wound appeared on Xiong Jiang's injury. A trace of blood spilled out, and for the first time since the two started fighting, someone was injured.
Ye Zhichen succeeded with the sword and was about to attack again, when he saw Xiong holding his palm in vain and pushing towards him, and the blood that escaped immediately shot towards him with a strong pressure.
Ye Zhichen hurriedly stepped aside, but he was too close and was hit by a few drops of blood on his shoulder. Several bloody holes were immediately knocked out of his shoulder.
With a muffled sound, the two of them retreated at the same time. After a slight pause, they immediately adjusted their offensive and attacked again.
Watching the two people fighting each other, Li Chuyi was dumbfounded. He felt that this serious fight was more dangerous than the previous battle that could not be seen clearly. It was only after a few moves that he saw blood. And as time goes by, they have more and more wounds.
"I can't understand!" Li Chuyi scratched his head.
He really didn't understand.
The two people seemed to be moving many times slower now, and even he could see clearly. However, as the moves changed, many moves that were obviously very simple and even he felt he could dodge, somehow managed to hit them. He was confused by what he saw on the other side.
And when they changed their moves, the feeling of having the antelope's horns readily available made Li Chuyi look confused.
For example, Xiong Ao, who obviously uses force to defeat magic, somehow brings out a sense of femininity from time to time. The mixed feeling of strength and softness made Li Chuyi feel so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit blood.
And the same goes for Ye Zhichen. The seemingly complicated sword moves are just a combination of various basic sword techniques, just like what he said when he taught Li Chuyi before. The nine most basic tips of swordsmanship were used in his hands, but there was an ethereal and strange feeling everywhere, making it impossible to predict where the next sword was coming from.
Thinking about how proud he was when he first mastered his swordsmanship, Li Chuyi couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
No wonder Ye Zhichen has always been dissatisfied with him. He has really only learned a little bit. Even if he is lucky enough to understand the realm of sword power, he is just a beginner who has not understood the essence.
Through the Yin Yang Dao Eye, Li Chuyi understood the battle between the two in detail, and tried to absorb as much as possible what he could understand from it, and secretly catered to himself. He felt that his understanding of fighting skills was slowly improving.
After a few more moves, Xiong Ao's front clothes were shattered, and his chest was covered with sword wounds. Although Ye Zhichen suffered less external injuries, the bloodshot eyes oozing from the corners of his mouth clearly indicated that he had suffered serious hidden injuries from the heavy axe.
Li Chuyi couldn't help but be a little worried, wondering if he should help Ye Zhichen like Huoyunkeng, offering Taoist talismans and kicking him. Even if his attack is not as good as a mosquito bite to Xiong Ao, as long as it affects him even a little bit, Ye Zhichen is very likely to win with this attack.
When masters compete and their abilities are equal, the battle is to see who makes the mistake first. As long as there is a slight flaw, then death is likely to be waiting for you.
As for the dignity of a monk, whether doing this is despicable, and whether it will affect Ye Zhichen's self-esteem, it is not a problem at all for Li Chuyi, who has been influenced by Taoist priests since childhood.
If your life is gone, what dignity is there?
Is this thing edible?
Just when he was about to take out the Taoist talisman to help, the void behind him suddenly fluctuated slightly, and a giant hand made of billowing black energy poked out from it and grabbed him.
"who!"
"you dare!"
Ye Zhichen and Xiong Ao shouted angrily. Li Chuyi didn't notice it, but they discovered its existence the moment the big hand popped out.
Without hesitation, the two of them turned around and flew towards this side, hitting the giant black hand with an ax and a sword at the same time.
After reacting, Li Chuyi felt the strong pressure coming from behind him and did not dare to look back. He controlled the gourd and rushed forward without hesitation.
Just when Black Hand was about to catch him, the giant ax and sword arrived and hit him on the left and right.
The black energy from the beating in Black Hand surged, but it did not dissipate. There was only a slight delay before he grabbed Li Chuyi again.
The faces of Ye Zhichen and Xiong Ao who arrived changed, and they looked at Black Hand in shock. The two of them couldn't defeat it with one blow. The master of this black hand was so advanced that they were frightened just thinking about it.
Pulling Li Chuyi and throwing it behind him, Ye Zhichen took back the sword.
"Attack with all your strength!"
Xiong Ao nodded, took back the giant ax, roared, and attacked again with Ye Zhichen.
