Chapter 577: Retreat to Advance
Snapped!
In the eyes of Zhang Yuquan and many sailors, the swordsman, who was the best choice for his momentum and grace, was beaten to the point where his head was broken and he was paralyzed into flesh. The boat was turned into pieces and floated on the sea.
At this time, they saw a Taoist wearing a mysterious robe standing in mid-air.
Wearing the mask of "Yuanshi Tianzun", he is majestic and solemn. He is two feet tall. His whole body seems to be intertwined with Dharma principles, giving people the feeling of reaching up to the sky and touching the sea.
It seems to fill the void, is the beginning of everything, dominates the heavens, coupled with the sea breeze, the thunder and light flashing in the mist, in the hearts of Zhang Yuquan and the sailors, they are really like gods and Buddhas, and are real immortals, leaving them with Made an indelible impression.
Eh... Meng Qi let out a sigh secretly. He didn't have time to think too much. He still acted like the sky and the earth. He stepped forward into the void, made a fist with his right hand and waved it out. The joints were clear, white and strong.
The person hidden in the mist seemed to have seen a huge jade smashing towards him. "It" was surrounded by sacred and solemn golden light spots, intertwined with black and white moral rays, and did not stir up any strange phenomena in the world. The waves remained the same. , the fog remains the same, the lightning and thunder remain the same.
The only strange thing is that all the thunder and lightning and fog retreated one after another, taking the initiative to make way for this huge jade-like fist!
The invisible and gloomy strong man in the outdoor scene thought of the miserable appearance of the swordsman just now, and was afraid that he would also end up with his brains bursting out and his body turning into mud. He did not dare to force it, so he formed seals on each of his left and right fingers and slowly pushed out.
With this push, his whole body seemed to be completely integrated into the mist, and he escaped instantly.
Just when he was proud of his ability to escape, a huge sense of danger suddenly arose in his heart, and the "Jade Ruyi" he sensed still hit him impartially.
how so?
Only then did he realize that black and white were flowing in the void nearby, and morals were intertwined, forming a constantly flowing Tai Chi. His escape just now was just spinning in place!
The golden light spots merge into the mist, turning the surroundings into a sacred and hard place that cannot be broken even in a moment!
What kind of move or magic is this?
He was just about to explode, but suddenly he felt a softness all over his body, as if he had encountered a natural enemy or a nemesis. It was difficult for him to resist, and his movements were slow for half a beat.
Yu Ruyi's fist fell, penetrated his secret treasure light shield that was triggered by the reaction, and hit him on the forehead.
Snapped!
His forehead cracked and his brains flowed out, but he did not turn into flesh like the swordsman just now, but kept his body intact, as if such a terrible punch could only destroy his head.
At this moment, the swordsman's blood and mud suddenly condensed, as if a vortex appeared in the center. It dissipated in a short moment, leaving only a strange thing. It had a slender body, like a tree trunk, covered with long beards, and two sides. It had long thin limbs and dived directly into the sea, using the water to escape, making Meng Qi's lock a step late.
When Meng Qi paid attention to the monster, a similar scene appeared to the strong man who controlled the strange ghost in the exterior. The difference was that what was left on his body was a red ball the size of a fist, like a stone or a fruit, with a There are some colorful patterns, such as eyes and mouth.
With a pop, the red ball also fell into the sea, and Meng Qi's ability to capture it out of thin air could only lift a handful of sea water.
strangeness? What are these things? Meng Qi encountered similar things for the first time and was unprepared. He was inevitably taken advantage of by them and took the opportunity to escape.
And this was not the only thing that puzzled him. Whether it was the outstanding swordsman or the invisible manipulator of Yin spirits, their strength was definitely not comparable to that of Zhang Yuquan, a newcomer to the field. They were at least close to the first. The level of the ladder is higher than his own, and his combat power is not bad either.
Therefore, when making the move, Meng Qi actually did not expect to succeed with one move. Even if he directly used "Dharma, Heaven, Elephant and Earth" in conjunction with the "Heaven and Earth Tilting" of the Heaven-shaking Seal in order to establish his power, he still felt that the swordsman could block the damage even if he was injured. Next, the killer move is the follow-up Dharmakaya-level "Three Treasures Ruyi Fist".
Who knows, the swordsman was directly overwhelmed by the power and could not bear it, and the shadowless one later showed less resistance when facing the "Three Treasures Ruyi Fist". Neither of them seemed to have displayed their true strength.
"Have you been completely suppressed by my aura and lost your mind, or have you been frightened by the identity of 'Yuanshi Tianzun'?" Meng Qi guessed and turned around, taking one step towards the ship, his body gradually shrank and returned to the state of a normal person.
But in the eyes of Sailor and Zhang Yuquan, he is completely different from his previous image. He is not a so-called immortal from the mysterious sect of Biyou Palace, but a real immortal who can hold up the sky. Even with an ordinary figure, he is still tall and towering!
He is indeed a strong man with the title of one of the Three Pure Ones!
Meng Qi wore a mask and showed no signs of joy or anger. He walked slowly back to the cabin, leaving only one sentence:
"Bring the swordsman's sword, I want to examine it and look for clues."
The belongings of the swordsman in white and the invisible man were swept away by those two strange things, leaving only a sword. However, he is currently the "Yuanshi Tianzun", a majestic and transcendent immortal, how can he personally take it?
"Yes, Tianzun." Zhang Yuquan replied respectfully. He had also seen the strange behavior after the death of two strong men in the outdoor scene before, and he was more confused about what happened in Qiaozhou. What happened there? What kind of monster was it just now?
Meng Qi thought for a while and added:
"Don't lose it."
After speaking, he walked into the cabin majestically and calmly.
…………
In the secret room, there were two more green lamps where the candles were placed, burning flames as red as beans. They were constantly jumping and full of life.
This is a simple soul lamp that can only last for a period of time.
"Calculating the time, it's time for them to take action. If the soul lamp does not change, it means that the matter has been completed successfully." The high-pitched voice sounded.
A low voice said: "We all understand, you don't need to explain."
"The previous two times were very similar to the present one, except that there was an extra Immortal from Biyou Palace." A voice like a broken gong said.
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly blew by.
Phew, the two soul lamps were extinguished at the same time, and the room was completely dark!
"this……"
"How can it be!"
"They all died? Almost at the same time?"
The voices blurted out one after another, and everyone was a little unable to accept this fact, and the secret room became noisy and chaotic.
After a long time, they fell silent again.
After waiting for another moment, an old voice slowly said: "They were able to briefly exert the strength of the Fourth Heaven, which was enough to deal with most of the powerful men in the court. Now that they died at the same time, it can only show one fact: the immortal from Biyou Palace The horror is far beyond our imagination, and may be similar to that of Doumu Yuanjun and Taiyi Zhenren back then. "
No one objects. The facts are before our eyes. Blind denial and disbelief will only cause greater losses.
"For such an immortal, we'd better not confront him head-on and retreat instead of advancing." The man with a hoarse voice said.
"How to make progress by retreating?" said a voice like a broken gong.
The old man said with an old tone: "Let Zhang Yuquan take over Qiaozhou and send us back to the capital. We will use the excuse of gathering the family members to delay as much time as possible. If it doesn't work, we will seize control of the ships on the waterway and return quietly."
"When the waterway is interrupted, with our secret management power and your background, we will be able to hide it from Zhang Yuquan. When the waterway reopens next year, we will be done. What are we afraid of?"
They actually knew who the imperial envoy was, which showed that there was no shortage of forces supporting them on the other side!
A low voice said: "What if the immortal from Biyou Palace 'escorts' us back to the other side?"
The secret room fell into silence again. After an unknown amount of time, someone gritted his teeth and said:
"Then just burn the boat and lead him there. I don't believe I can't kill him!"
"Okay!" The others made up their minds after hesitating for a moment.
Death is a dream, but immortality lasts for tens of thousands of years!
…………
Xinhai City, the capital of Qiaoxia Prefecture.
The sun was shining brightly, casting patches of light on the blue sea, like dancing golden scales. Where the sea and the sky met, ships gradually grew larger, with masts towering as if they could pierce the clouds.
Many fishermen and merchant ships stared wide-eyed. They have not seen such a large building ship and such a spectacular fleet in many years. I am afraid they have only encountered it when they migrated to establish Qiaozhou!
Before the building ship approached the harbor, the governor of Qiaoxia Prefecture, Fang Buongbu, approached on an official ship and boarded the deck of the ship where the imperial envoy Zhang Yuquan was.
He once set a record for being the oldest person in this dynasty to be on location. Now he is old and has not been able to break through to the second heaven. It is not because the energy of heaven and earth is insufficient and the necessary materials and treasures cannot be found, but because of the entrance. There are mistakes that are difficult to make up for.
Fang BuTong had pale hair, a slightly arched figure, and many wrinkles on his face. He could not see the slightest trace of the governor's demeanor as a pastor. He respectfully greeted Zhang Yuquan and quietly took a look at the Taoist wearing a majestic mask behind him. A terrifying figure with the title of "Yuanshi Tianzun"!
And Meng Qi was also sizing him up. A real person should not be judged by his appearance. Who could tell that this thin and frail old man, together with other governors, caused two fleets of the imperial court to die in the ocean, and two strong men on location were lost.
Regarding this point, the imperial spies lurking in Xinhai City have just made a report.
Fang BuTong, the old god, listened to Zhang Yuquan read out the imperial edict, saying that the emperor sympathized with him in his old age and allowed him to return to his roots. Zhang Yuquan temporarily took over the post of governor of Xiazhou.
After listening to this, Fang BuTong shouted loudly about God's grace and was moved to tears without any intention of resisting.
After entering Xinhai City and after the banquet, Zhang Yuquan found time to find Meng Qi and ask the immortal for advice: "Tianzun, I feel that something is not right. Fang BuTong is too cooperative. If something goes wrong, it must be a monster."
Meng Qi wore the mask of "Yuanshi Tianzun" and sat cross-legged on the bed. He said in an indifferent voice: "A man who can bury two imperial envoys in a row would be willing to surrender without mercy?"
It is difficult for those who have taken the risk to look back!
Zhang Yuquan understood this very well and said in a low voice: "Tianzun, I will be on guard against Fang Bing and find out the cause as soon as possible."
"Why bother with them? It's impossible to say that they are trying to delay time and wait for the waterway to be interrupted. You have righteousness and have the support of our Biyou Palace. You should turn against the guests and strike first to gain advantage!" Meng Qi said calmly.
