“Coincidence, purely coincidental, it’s not that I used you as bait, but that you have already been targeted by the Holy Son of Beiling.
This time, I want to say that it is also the fellow Taoist Hanji Menzhuang who I heard has some grudges against you who has made a meritorious service, and the fellow Taoist Geng of the Lingtian Sword Sect, who is regarded as the internal agent of the Southern Territory placed in the Northern Territory."
Faced with Chen Dengming's doubts, Qiao Zhaoxian explained while taking medicine to heal his injuries, and then recounted what happened.
Chen Dengming suddenly understood after hearing this, and immediately felt a little speechless.
The Holy Son of Beiling and the Protector of Shasha had been eyeing him for a long time. In order to hunt him, they even joined forces to suppress the invasion of the southern border, just to capture him.
This meant that he was regarded as more important than the entire southern border area. It really made him feel that he was being taken too seriously.
I originally thought that as I became stronger and more famous, I would have less trouble, at least no one who was short-sighted would cause trouble for me again.
It turns out now that this was wishful thinking after all.
There may indeed be fewer people without eyes, but those with eyes who still provoke him are usually strong people who can really pose a threat to his life.
"If Lao Qiao and the others hadn't come to ambush and assist me this time, I'm afraid I would have hid in Nanxun to avoid disaster. Experts like the Holy Son of Beiling have all been in contact with the orthodox land, and they may not follow Nanxun."
Chen Dengming was secretly glad.
Gan Qinghong said happily, "This time it is a blessing in disguise. I thought it would be good if we could hunt down one of them, but now we have killed both the Holy Son of Beiling and the Protector of Shasha.
This is a very great achievement, not only because of the identity of these people, but also because their death will also greatly dampen the morale of the alliance of sects in the Northern Territory and destroy the plan of the Northern Territory to invade the border of the Southern Territory."
He paused for a moment, looked at Chen Dengming, and said with a smile, "Chen Xiaoyou, your strength really surprises me. You are taking the most credit this time."
He said this generously, saying that he would not ask for credit, and would rather sell Chen Dengming a favor. At the same time, he also wanted to see the opinions of Qiao Zhaoxian and Qiao Zhaoxian.
Qiao Zhaoxian and Gao Lingxiao had no objections. Neither of them were convinced of each other.
But for Chen Dengming, they were surprisingly unanimous and convinced.
Chen Dengming was able to fight against the Protector of the Killing Cha on his own, and was able to escape, which proved that he had the ability to fight against the late-stage cultivators of the Ordinary Golden Core. At least he was able to protect himself. The combat power he had just shown was also admired by the two of them.
"Everyone deserves credit."
Chen Dengming said a humble and polite word. Seeing the Nanxun stronghold ahead, but there was no sign of fighting, he guessed that there was an envoy from the Nightmare Kingdom who might have escaped.
He wondered, "Manpower is so tight now? Since you already knew the situation through Zhuang Fangyu and Geng Yiyi, why didn't you invite a few more experts to join us?"
Gao Lingxiao, who had been silent for the whole time, shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. The masters in our Eastern Region, including the Southern Region, are all targeted by various spies, spies, and even divination techniques. It's hard to hide here and set up an ambush." , over time, it will be exposed.
Even the three of us were protected from exposure for a short period of time under the cover of Geng Yiyi."
"good."
Qiao Zhaoxian looked solemn, "Besides, before today, we didn't even know that there was a Shasha protector lurking in ambush.
Even Geng Yiyi didn't know what the Beiling Holy Son had in store before today.
We only knew through a piece of intelligence in advance that there would be an envoy from the Nightmare Kingdom cooperating with the Holy Son of Beiling.
This time, I was able to ask Elder Gan to arrange the Great Five Elements Reversal Formation. I actually attached great importance to it, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated the enemy and almost capsized. "
Chen Dengming nodded when he heard this. There really are no simple roles in the secret cultivator.
Even though Geng Yiyi who was placed next to Beiling Son was an internal agent, he was unable to get more information from Beiling Son in advance.
The Holy Son of Beiling has been careful enough. Logically speaking, his combat power is comparable to that of a late-stage Jindan strongman. Coupled with a stronger Killing Dragon Protector, under normal circumstances, there are not four Jindan. In the later stage, it is difficult for the masters to keep them.
But this time he was ambushed and met a bunch of freaks like them, so he was very unlucky.
During the exchange, the group of four people had arrived at the Southern Territory stronghold.
There was a messy scene here. There had been a big battle before, and some monks who came to practice Qi or even build foundations were affected, and hundreds of people were killed or injured.
However, Zhuang Fangyu, Xia Shunyuan and others did not stay here.
When everyone landed, they were immediately received warmly and anxiously by the foundation-building monks who stayed here, and told Zhuang Fangyu and others that they were chasing the Nightmare Kingdom's envoy.
"That Nightmare Kingdom envoy is too strong...many of us were hit before we could react. Some of our brothers have already died, while others are still alive but can't wake up."
A late-stage foundation-building monk who was in charge of the reception had a sad expression on his face, and he was a little frightened when he spoke. He looked at Chen Dengming and others with a bit of expectancy in his eyes.
Qiao Zhaoxian's expression was solemn, "It seems that he has been hit by the nightmare magic prison of the Nightmare Kingdom's golden elixir. It is almost difficult to wake up again, unless the special envoy of the Nightmare Kingdom's golden elixir is captured and relieved."
"That's right, unless we catch the demon, only a golden elixir monk who specializes in spiritual consciousness can do it."
Gan Qinghong nodded slightly and looked at Chen Dengming again. In his eyes, Chen Dengming seemed to be a golden elixir master specializing in spiritual consciousness.
Otherwise, the Killing Thought Divine Consciousness of the Protector of Killing Cha could cause harm to him, so how could it not pose a great threat to Chen Dengming.
As soon as Gan Qinghong said this, a foundation-building monk who was following the reception of the late-stage foundation-building monks suddenly turned pale.
Da Xiu, the late Jin Dan, spoke like this, as if his last hope had been taken away, and tears could not stop pouring out.
Obviously, among the monks who were recruited, there were people close to him.
"The demons of the Nightmare Kingdom are really powerful. I also fought against the demons of the Nightmare Kingdom when I was building the foundation."
Chen Dengming noticed Gan Qinghong's gaze and sighed, remembering the experience of fighting against the demons of the Nightmare Kingdom. At that time, many monks fell into the trap and were possessed by the demons of the Nightmare Kingdom.
"Take me to see those who are not dead yet."
Chen Dengming looked at the two receptionists, Zhu Jidao.
He has the unifying power of both heavenly and human beings, and he has also mastered spiritual and spiritual arts such as the Divine Art and the Sacred Heart Art. It is indeed possible to resolve the nightmare of witchcraft and the phantom prison.
Upon hearing this, the tearful Foundation-Building monk rekindled his hope. He quickly bowed and bowed, and immediately took Chen Dengming and others to the house at the rear.
Qiao Zhaoxian and others also became interested, knowing how powerful Chen Dengming was, so they followed him one after another.
However, the atmosphere in the spacious house that had been temporarily tidied up was depressing. There were more than a dozen people lying on the large bed in the inner room covered by bamboo curtains. They all had no injuries on their bodies, but they were asleep and their breath was weak.
Two of them have stronger spiritual power and are foundation-building monks, while the other eleven are Qi-training monks.
"Go out quickly and let this senior Jin Dan take a look at the situation."
The foundation-building monk who led the way dismissed some servants who were responsible for taking care of the house, then performed a cleaning technique, respectfully opened the bamboo curtain, and invited Chen Dengming to enter.
Chen Dengming entered the inner room and his eyes fell on the monks lying all over the room.
But I saw that these people's faces were either pale or as golden as paper. They were breathing in but not breathing out. They looked like they were about to die.
"It's like I've lost my soul."
Chen Dengming frowned, concentrated his mind, mobilized the power of the immortals, his eyes were blue, and he quickly entered the state of clairvoyance.
His eyes were focused, and he suddenly saw a strange scene with his clairvoyance.
I saw that the souls of these dozen people were surrounded by a brown aura and gathered in the sea of consciousness.
The two foundation-building monks were okay, and there was still a faint light of divine consciousness in the sea of consciousness.
The other qi-training monks seemed to have their souls about to be swallowed up, and their soul power was weak.
"This brown aura seems to be the nightmare prison."
Chen Dengming tried to separate a ray of spiritual consciousness, and used the attack method of the God Refining Membrane Technique to contact one of the Qi Practitioners.
The moment he came into contact with the brown breath, he suddenly felt a drowsy and confused feeling welling up in his soul, almost uncontrollable birth sleep.
"It actually affects me."
Chen Dengming's face was as quiet as water, flashing with unconcealable surprise, the blue light in his eyes became brighter, and his soul entered the state of heaven.
My heart is the heart of heaven, and my will is the will of heaven!
The drowsy feeling immediately subsided, and the consciousness that was about to invade his soul was suddenly shattered.
The brown aura that enveloped the Qi Practitioner's soul dissipated.
At this moment, Chen Dengming felt a scene suddenly appear in his mind, and he could vaguely sense a figure in the distance, as well as a powerful power of divine consciousness.
He immediately realized that it was the special envoy of the Nightmare Kingdom who had escaped.
Almost the moment he sensed the other party, the other party also noticed his presence and couldn't help but be horrified.
"Well"
At this time, the qi-training monk whose soul was liberated finally woke up and turned around.
This scene immediately surprised everyone present.
Qiao Zhaoxian praised, "Okay, Old Chen! You have endless methods, and you can break through the nightmare prison."
Chen Dengming frowned, "I have sensed the presence of this special envoy from the Nightmare Kingdom, but the distance is far away. It seems that Xia Shunyuan and the others have lost track of him."
Qiao Zhaoxian and others were shocked when they heard this.
Chen Dengming's eyes were like lightning, and his white hair on his temples was windless.
A stronger spiritual consciousness, blessed by the power of the immortals, invaded the bodies of more than a dozen people on the bed.
This is to use these dozen people as a medium to attack the Nightmare Kingdom's envoy from a distance, and even use clairvoyance to lock the opponent's location and establish spiritual telepathy.
He has always been the best at playing with the mind and spirit, and even the monsters from the Nightmare Country are not bad at it.
However, just as his consciousness invaded, the brown auras that enveloped the monks' souls all collapsed and dissipated on their own, without any direct contact with him.
All of a sudden, more than a dozen people on the bed groaned or murmured in their sleep, and slowly woke up one after another.
The Foundation Establishment cultivator who had led the way before immediately screamed with joy. After hurriedly thanking Chen Dengming, he threw himself in front of a Foundation Establishment female cultivator.
Gan Qinghong and others were quite surprised.
Chen Dengming broke out of the nightmare prison so quickly?
"This special envoy from the Nightmare Kingdom seems to have been seriously injured. He actually refused to fight me and took the initiative to withdraw his spell."
Chen Dengming withdrew his spiritual consciousness and Dao power, looked at Gan Qinghong and others, shook his head and explained.
"This is why Chen Xiaoyou is so powerful."
Gan Qinghong lamented, "Although I haven't had many fights with the demons of the Nightmare Kingdom, I also know that these demons of the Nightmare Kingdom are extremely arrogant and ferocious. This kind of active retreat, especially at the spiritual level, rarely happens."
"freak"
Gao Lingxiao looked at Chen Dengming's majestic face after casting the spell and muttered in his heart, but did not dare to show such complaints on his face.
In her opinion, Chen Baimao seemed to have no shortcomings.
The ferocity and fierceness of her attacks were comparable to hers when using Sword Immortal Dao Power, but at the spiritual level, they were much stronger than hers.
What kind of bad luck did the Changshou Sect have? After so many years and bearing a reputation that no monk in the sect could bear, a character appeared this time who made both her and Qiao Zhaoxian feel ashamed.
At this time, two golden elixir spirits suddenly appeared from outside the stronghold.
But it was Xia Shunyuan and Zhuang Fangyu who returned.
The two sides gathered again, and after learning that the Holy Son of Beiling and the Protector of Shacha had all been killed, Xia Shunyuan's old face was so shocked that he wrinkled up into orange peel, and his words were somewhat incoherent.
Zhuang Fangyu secretly rejoiced that he and Lao Geng were old friends. He never thought about living a good life and rebelled just to take revenge on Changshou Daozi.
Fortunately, there was no chance of rebellion. Otherwise, if he couldn't stand the temptation of Beiling Snow Lotus and rebelled, he would definitely be the first to be beaten to death by Changshou Daozi.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, thank you for your timely report this time."
Chen Dengming is also a person who has a clear sense of grudges. Afterwards, he pulled Zhuang Fangyu, who was nervous, and said with a polite smile, "Let's just cancel the feud between us in the past. I don't feel comfortable sitting on your golden chariot. I'll give it back to you later."
Zhuang Fangyu was moved by Chen Dengming and said such words, but he did not dare to move.
The scene where the Holy Son of Beiling was decapitated by the smiling Bai Mao was still replaying in his mind, vivid in his mind, and he immediately laughed.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, what you said is right. There is nothing to be grateful for. I am also doing meritorious service for the alliance. You killed the Holy Son of Beiling, and I am also meritorious.
Are you uncomfortable sitting in that golden chariot?
It's okay, tell me what style you like, and I'll customize a new set for you later. "
Zhuang Fangyu didn't know whether Chen Dengming was sitting comfortably or not. In short, he must make this Taoist feel comfortable.
Otherwise, if one day he is not happy and he thinks of his previous hatred for occupying Luoshan City, isn't that just making him unhappy?
No matter what people said before, this mount and golden chariot were all taken by force. Where can I sit comfortably?
Now he has customized it himself and given it away, which is much more comfortable than grabbing it.
Making friends with such a powerful Taoist meant that for him, Lao Zhuang, he could only make a profit but not lose anything, and the situation suddenly opened up.
At the same time, more than seven hundred miles away.
At the bottom of a rumbling cold waterfall, the mud suddenly rolled, revealing a cheek with a blue and black face, eyes closed, nostrils and ears tightly connected, and it was a state of silence.
At this time, the man felt that the powerful spiritual consciousness that invaded from afar finally dissipated, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He woke up suddenly, opened his eyes a little, and looked at the cold water flowing in front of his eyes. In his mind, the clear image of the terrible person that he had telepathically sensed before could not help but emerge in his mind.
The other party has a vast sky, white hair on his temples, and profound eyes. His eyes are filled with cold blue light that is as vast as the boundless sky. It is a majestic laser. His face is filled with brilliance, which seems to directly cross the distance of time and space. His spirit invades his soul along the blue light. middle.
At that moment before, he felt like he was in an ice cellar, breathing hard. He felt that if he hesitated even a little, the other party's terrifying spirit might invade the depths of his soul and lock his position.
"What a scary person. This person has white hair on his temples. He must be Chen Baimao, the Taoist Master of Longevity?"
The special envoy from the Nightmare Kingdom was in a state of panic. He had always been bold and did not know what fear was, but now he was afraid. He was afraid of a monk whose strength was lower than his own.
He knew that since the other party appeared An Ran and attacked him, Beiling Shengzi and others were probably in danger, and escaping would be the best outcome.
Recalling that before this trip, he and Beiling Holy Son were in high spirits, discussing how to capture Changshou Daozi and then invade the border of the Southern Territory. They made great achievements and in one fell swoop gained great prestige among the alliances of the sects in the Western Territory.
Unexpectedly, it was not successful at the beginning, and someone might die.
That night, the news that the Holy Son of Beiling of Beiling Sect and the protector of Demon Cha Kingdom were executed quickly spread to the sect alliances in the Eastern and Southern Territories.
For a time, it was like a stone stirred up thousands of waves, creating an uproar.
In the past few years, even though the North and South regions have gradually been involved in the war, the overall situation of the war in the four regions has been relatively restrained, and there has been no incident of the fall of strong men above the middle stage of the Golden Core.
The Holy Son of Beiling and the Protector of Shacha, one is the Taoist disciple of Beiling Sect, who masters the Immortal Tradition of Youdi, and the other is one of the protectors of the late stage of the four golden elixirs of Demon Cha Kingdom.
These are all great people, not ordinary golden elixir monks from a small sect with little background.
No matter which sect these two people establish, they will definitely not be weaker than the Changchun Sect.
However, now, these two big figures have been killed, which is a heavy blow to the Western Region Demonic Cultivator camp.
Beiling Sect and Mocha Kingdom may go crazy. Maybe Beiling Holy Mother and Mocha Kingdom will tear up the Nascent Soul Agreement and start a Nascent Soul War.
For a time, all the sect forces in the four regions who got the news were full of speculations and panic.
Not long after the news came out, Chen Dengming and others were immediately ordered to be recalled by the top leaders of the Southeast Alliance, creating a tense atmosphere of impending disaster.
Chen Dengming, Qiao Zhaoxian, and Gao Lingxiao went to the Heguan City of the Eastern Territory Alliance of Sects together to hand over the Yinying Bead and the enemy's corpse, record their military exploits, and wait for further arrangements from the Alliance of Sects.
Gan Qinghong went to the Southern Sect Alliance alone to report the situation.
The Jindan elder of the Five Elements Dungeon Sect was also very good at being a good person. He directly handed over all the loot to Chen Dengming and the others, and took it to Heguan City to record and then distribute it. He behaved very grandly.
At this moment, he was flying to the spirit boat in Heguan City in the Eastern Region.
Chen Dengming and the three of them gathered together to sort out the trophies and exclaimed from time to time.
"This killing sword is indeed a top-level third-level magic weapon. Tsk tsk, this craftsmanship and the material are old. If you don't need the sword, just give it to me?"
"Hey, I think this Beiling Snow Lotus is good. Why don't I leave it to you. You have a good talent. If you don't need it, I think your wife can also use it."
"You do care about my wife. I said that you have arranged all these trophies for you two. I, Gao Lingxiao, don't deserve a share?"
"Go! You only contributed a small amount of effort in the previous battle. I can share this tattered robe of the Protector of Killing Sha with you."
"Qiao Zhaoxian! You're itchy!"
"Come on! Who's afraid of whom? I can't beat Lao Chen, but I can't deal with you, Xiao Gao?"
On the deck, Chen Dengming looked at Qiao Zhaoxian and Gao Lingxiao, who immediately became tense after saying a few words, and shook his head helplessly.
These two people are born in the Year of the Sheep, and they have to support each other no matter what happens.
However, whether these trophies should be kept or handed over is indeed up for debate.
If you hand it in, it will be replaced by pure military merit. If you don't hand it in, you can keep it for yourself. Some items are quite good.
Chen Dengming's eyes moved and he took out a leather scroll from Beiling Holy Son's storage bag. He read the writing on the leather scroll and couldn't help but stare.
"Nautical Chart of Beiling Sea Area"!
"Huh? Why do you want to record something in such a primitive way as animal skin?"
Qiao Zhaoxian was also attracted.
(There will be more updates in the evening)
