Chapter 240 News about Cheng Jiangjian
"Brother!"
"Zhou Heng, what are you doing?!"
Seeing that the man was injured, the other three members of the Huanfa Sect rushed over immediately. One on the left and the other on the right, they stood on either side of Zhou Heng with unkind expressions.
"Stand back!" The Illusion Technique disciple who was half-kneeling on the ground opened his arms to stop the two men from taking action.
Then he stood up slowly, looked at Zhou Heng with a pale face, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, okay, I didn't expect that Chunyang Palace has such a superb illusion martial arts, let alone the power of your soul. It’s so powerful that I, Ning Qifeng, won’t lose unjustly!”
"So you are Ning Qifeng, the sixteenth on the list of people, the true successor of the Huan Dharma, and the disciple of the 'Tianhuan Zhenren' who is the tenth on the earth's list, known as 'the real and the illusion are difficult to distinguish' Ning Qifeng." Zhou Heng raised his eyebrows slightly and shook his head. He smiled and said, "It's a pity that you don't seem to have learned any of the skills of Master Tianhuan."
"Zhou Heng, don't push yourself too far!" Ning Qifeng shouted sternly, while the two people around him also had ruthless expressions on their faces, as if they were ready to take action at any time.
But at this moment, "Zhou Heng" standing in front of them suddenly became slightly distorted. In the next moment, he turned into a paper man and fell to the ground.
Illusion!
In fact, Zhou Heng had already left long ago. What was standing in front of them and talking to them was actually just an illusion performed by Zhou Heng using paper figures.
Under Zhou Heng's powerful soul power, the subtleties of the Immortal Seal were fully displayed.
It was only then that Ning Qifeng and the others realized that the illusion they had been under had not been lifted until now, and that they had been under the illusion just now.
"What a powerful illusion. When did Chunyang Palace have such a brilliant illusion?"
"This is at least a secret sixth-grade illusion. How many third-grade martial arts does this Zhou Heng know?"
The two Illusion Technique disciples were horrified. Looking at Zhou Heng's retreating figure, they no longer had the courage to catch up and fight back. Their previous experiences made them truly realize Zhou Heng's strength.
So awesome, so powerful!
"No, it's not that the illusion is powerful." Ning Qifeng said with a gloomy face: "This illusion martial art can only be regarded as a secret sixth-grade true inheritance in our illusion method. It may not be very clever. It's because Zhou Heng's soul is too strong."
"Then senior brother, what should we do next?"
"Do you want to continue..."
The other two Huan Dharma disciples asked in a low voice, and they all followed Ning Qifeng's lead.
"Let's go back first." Ning Qifeng shook his head, glanced at the direction Zhou Heng was leaving, and said, "No, go to that big house. Zhou Heng is probably going there."
Just as Ning Qifeng said, after Zhou Heng left where they were, he went directly to the big house where Yang Fan had been sealed before.
After all, now he has received psychological hints during the illusion, asking him if he knows the secret of this big house. Since he broke the illusion of Ning Qifeng and others, he will naturally not forget this psychological hint.
As long as he didn't forget the psychological hint, according to common sense, he would definitely be interested in the secret of that big house, and he would never let it go.
If he turns a blind eye to this, then there is a real problem.
Acting naturally requires a complete performance.
…
When Zhou Heng was about to open the door and enter the mansion, Ning Qifeng also came here with his two junior brothers.
However, Zhou Heng ignored these three people. He directly opened the door and walked in, then turned around and closed the door.
boom!
Ning Qifeng pressed his hands on the door to prevent Zhou Heng from closing the door, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Heng, I advise you not to explore the matter here. It involves a lot. It is not something you can do at your level..."
"Are you used to talking to random warriors with no sect, or do you still don't know who I am?" Zhou Heng sneered, using his hands slightly hard, he heard a bang and the door was closed directly.
Ning Qifeng and the other three were turned away and could only stand there, unable to get in.
"Senior brother, Zhou Heng is determined to go against us this time."
"Now how to do?"
The two Huan Dharma disciples looked angry, waiting for Ning Qifeng's decision.
"Let him go." Ning Qifeng shook his head, not looking angry, and said, "Let's go back first."
"Huh? Go back?"
"Going back like this? Senior brother?"
The two Huan Dharma disciples didn't react for a while and didn't understand what was going on.
"Go back." Ning Qifeng said calmly: "Let's go."
After saying that, he left directly in front of the big house without any hesitation. When the other two Illusion Method disciples saw this, they had no choice but to leave with him.
The three of them walked to a large house in the southern district of Huangtong Mansion and walked in.
This is where they rented a house.
The three of them were not the only ones who came to Huangtong Fucheng this time. In fact, the one who actually came to investigate was a fourth-grade great master, Ning Qifeng's master.
Wu Fa, the "Tianhuan Zhenren" who is ranked tenth on the local rankings.
Ning Qifeng led his two junior brothers into the main hall of the house, respectfully paid homage to Master Tianhuan Wu Fa, and recounted the previous encounter with Zhou Heng.
Wu Fa is a middle-aged man who looks to be about forty years old. His facial features are like jade carvings, and his appearance can be called a junior. He stands out from the crowd with jade trees facing the wind. He wears a moon-white robe and has an immortal spirit, just like an immortal descended from heaven to earth.
His expression was indifferent, and there was no emotional change on his face. He just listened quietly.
Only when he heard that Zhou Heng easily broke the illusion spell jointly cast by Ning Qifeng and the other two, and then used the illusion spell to counterattack, so that the three of them could not even react, did the eyes of his eyes flicker slightly.
"Is there still such an illusion in Chunyang Palace? No, this is probably a legacy from Zhou Heng's previous life. It's a bit interesting. Zhou Heng's identity in his previous life has become more and more mysterious." Wu Fa gently nodded and said with a smile: "Qifeng, you lose It’s not unfair. The reincarnations of great powers, especially the reincarnations of great powers who have retained the skills from their previous lives, are far stronger than normal warriors of the same level.”
"Master, there is no need to comfort the disciple. This is indeed because the disciple's skills are inferior to others." Ning Qifeng shook his head, and then asked: "Do you think this matter between Zhou Heng and Yang Fan's mansion has anything to do with it?"
"Judging from your previous description, Zhou Heng's problem is not big this time." Wu Fa said lightly: "And just now when you were away, I received a summons from Lord Dao."
"Did Master Dao send you a message?" Ning Qifeng was surprised when he heard this, and said curiously: "Can you inform this disciple?"
The other two disciples of the Huan Dharma Sect also looked at Wu Fa with fascinated expressions and looked expectantly. They all wanted to know what Lord Dao said.
Within the Huan Dharma Sect, it is common for disciples to worship their third-grade powerful masters, and many people even believe in them as living gods and worship them.
Although Ning Qifeng and the other three have not yet reached this level, the Taoist Master of the Huan Dharma Sect is still a being that they respect extremely.
In their opinion, it would be an unparalleled blessing to know even a little bit of information about such an existence, let alone the content of the summons.
"It's okay to tell you." Wu Fa nodded and said: "Daojun previously sensed something strange on the screen wall that sealed Yang Fan, and Yang Fan's whole body was taken away. In fact, this was only the most preliminary perception.
"Not long after that, Daojun sensed a clearer situation. The seal he used to cover Yang Fan's aura had been tampered with.
"And it's not about tampering with the ban, but directly interfering with the ban's laws with Taoist power."
"Dao power?!" Ning Qifeng exclaimed, and the other two disciples of the Huan Dharma Sect were also shocked. They all knew very well what these two words meant.
Tao power is the power of Tao seed, and can also be regarded as the power of Dao.
This is the power that Daojun can really use.
In other words, the person who tampered with the restriction that sealed Yang Fan was most likely another Dao Lord.
It’s actually a battle between Dao Lords!
Ning Qifeng's face turned pale just when he thought about it. Thoughts suddenly flashed through his mind, and he said nervously: "Master, do you think it was the Taoist Lord from Chunyang Palace who took action?"
"No." Wu Fa shook his head and said: "Chunyang Palace has never had a Taoist master who condensed forbidden Tao seeds. This matter should have nothing to do with Chunyang Palace.
"Actually, there was only one Dao Lord in the world who could exert his power in banning. He once ferried on the Qingxia River, but now there is no boatman on the Qingxia River.
"A disciple of the Medieval Law Saint, a second-grade Taoist known as the 'Feng Jue Taoist', Jiang Tafa."
As soon as this conclusion came out, Ning Qifeng and the others were shocked. They all froze on the spot, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
They never expected that they were originally investigating whether Chunyang Palace was related to this matter through Zhou Heng, a seventh-level warrior, but suddenly they were told that this was probably the work of a Taoist king from the medieval era.
The Middle Ages was an extremely powerful era in the hearts of many warriors. The Nine Saints were in power, carrying on the past and forging ahead into the future. A hundred schools of thought contended, there were many schools, and strong men emerged in large numbers.
Since the Middle Ages, it has often been equated with being powerful, not to mention the power of a Taoist who was a Taoist as early as the Middle Ages and a disciple of the Law Saint.
To the ears of Ning Qifeng and others, it was as if the fairy tales they had grown up listening to had suddenly entered reality.
This gave them a huge impact and left them speechless for a long time.
"Master, what do you mean, is it actually the Taoist Feng Jue who captured Yang Fan?" Ning Qifeng asked with some uncertainty, "Also, is it possible that the Taoist Feng Jue is still there at this time?" This is Huangtong Mansion City.”
"Yes, it is indeed possible that he is in Huangtong Mansion City." Wu Fa gently nodded and said: "In this case, the Dao Lord Divine Weapon that Yang Fan stole from the Sun Palace will probably also be lost. It's in his hands."
"Then...Master, what should we do next?" Ning Qifeng asked in a low voice.
"The next thing is not something we can get involved with." Wu Fa shook his head, stood up, and said: "So far, I just need to report back to Daojun that Jiang Tafa is most likely still in Huangtong Mansion City. ”
"Ah?" Ning Qifeng and the other two disciples were stunned when they heard this. They never expected this answer. Shouldn't they do their best to help Dao Lord investigate the situation?
"Ah what?" Wu Fa glanced at Ning Qifeng and the others, and chuckled: "In the fight between Taoists, what are you and me ants getting involved in? Are we looking for death?"
…
Zhou Heng didn't know that Jiang Tafa had been inexplicably put into a cauldron that had taken away Yang Fan.
After Ning Qifeng and the others left, he still pretended to be here and searched the big house for a long time, especially the screen wall where the relief had disappeared, he looked over and over again.
It's a pity that after turning it over and over, there was nothing gained. In the end, I had to leave the mansion with "nothing".
The next few days were uneventful.
Ning Qifeng and others also left Huangtong City, and Zhou Heng finally calmed down and could practice with peace of mind.
At the same time, he prepared for the Zhoutian Xunjiesi gathering in more than ten days.
This morning, after breakfast, he put on the mask of Ziwei Star Lord and prepared to check if there was any news today.
Since the mask must be put on to receive information from Ziwei Palace, Zhou Heng has now developed a habit of putting on the mask every morning to check.
Mainly because it has been more than ten days since he last went to Ziwei Palace to inquire, and there is still no news from Cheng Jiangjian, which makes him a little worried.
In the past few days, Zhou Heng could only see a blank space when he put on the mask, and there was no news, but this time he saw a line of text.
"Star Lord, please go back to Ziwei Palace as soon as possible. There is news from Tianji."
This message should have been sent not long ago, and it seems quite urgent.
So, Zhou Heng got up and went out without thinking, driving the red horse out of Huangtong Prefecture City, and to a place where few people go. He also let the red horse wear the red lotus harness, which greatly increased the speed.
In less than a quarter of an hour, he came to the nearest entrance of Ziwei Palace. After putting the red horse into the cave world, he wore the mask of Ziwei Star Lord and entered the world where Ziwei Palace was.
As soon as Zhou Heng came to Ziqiyuntai, before stepping onto the Starlight Bridge, he saw the Five Emperors Inner Seat who was waiting here. He walked back and forth, seeming to be quite anxious.
"Senior, what's wrong?" Zhou Heng asked.
"Star Lord, you are here at last." The Five Emperors Inner Seat greeted first, and then pulled Zhou Heng onto the Starlight Bridge, "It's too late to explain now, please follow me to Jieyou Palace first."
"Okay." Zhou Heng nodded, letting the Five Emperors Inner Seat lead him forward at a very fast speed.
In front of Ziwei Palace, after meeting the two celestial beings, Taizun and Tianli, the Inner Seat of the Five Emperors brought Zhou Heng to the Jieyou Palace in a hurry.
"Star Lord, look at this." The Inner Seat of the Five Emperors hurriedly took out a black jade slip and unfolded it.
There were flashes of starlight on this black jade slip, forming a star map of the Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions, but some places were bright, some were dim, and a few were glowing red.
Compared with the Zhoutian Star Map, it was a little simpler.
"What is this?" Zhou Heng looked at the Inner Seat of the Five Emperors in confusion.
"This is the Star Track Chart of the Heavens." The Inner Seat of the Five Emperors said: "After the star officials and star envoys pass through the star gate to other worlds, their lives and deaths are unpredictable, and their future is unknown. This chart can only be used as basic judgment information.
"Usually, the positions of the star officials and star envoys on the Star Track Chart of the Heavens are dim, but as long as they pass through the star gate to other worlds, the corresponding positions will light up.
"If you die in another world, the light of the corresponding star will go out and turn red. Generally speaking, there will be no other situation.
"But now... Star Lord, look, this is the star corresponding to Tianji."
As he said this, the Five Emperors pointed to the location where the "Tianji Star" should be located on the star track chart, but now there is no starlight here, but it is not dim or red.
The star here disappeared directly and became empty!
