"bring it on!"
"You go first."
"Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to show off."
Taoist Wild Dog calmly patted his Taoist robe and said to Zeng Shushu who was standing not far away from him. Although he was arrogant, he did have arrogant strength.
At the very least, in front of these disciples who have not understood the rules and have not reached the second level of cultivation, even if he acts casually, he will never reach the point of overturning.
In the final analysis, it lies in his understanding of some rules.
Although he didn't go far on this path, and it was the hall master who helped him, which made him embark on this path, but only when he actually set foot on this path did he understand the gap between immortal cultivators. .
Why can Tianjiao fight across ranks?
And a lesser genius can't do this?
The reason is that some rules are extremely overbearing.
The rules he understood were for living beings.
That's why he had such a strong confidence to say such arrogance that he wanted to slap himself. After all, these words were quite lethal, especially when the righteous way and the evil way were always incompatible.
But Taoist Wild Dog's "arrogant talk" did not anger Zeng Shushu, nor did it anger anyone. Except for Baguio and Youji who stayed out of the matter, everyone else thought that this was a method used by Taoist Wild Dog to provoke the generals. The purpose is to disrupt Zeng Shushu's mentality.
Zeng Shushu's cultivation level is indeed not high.
But that also depends on who you are comparing with!
If we look at the current team, the team formed by the three major righteous sects of Tianyin Temple, Qingyun Sect and Fenxiang Valley, with Zeng Shushu's cultivation and strength, is enough to be the mainstay.
Zeng Shushu thought so too.
Therefore, he was not careless.
He raised his hand and performed a sword fight, holding the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand and sweeping it across the void in front of him. A golden sword energy burst out from the Xuanyuan Sword in an instant, hitting the wild dog Taoist not far away.
"No more."
Dongfang Yuan shook his head slightly and commented softly.
Such a decisive statement naturally surprised all those who didn't understand. They glanced at Dongfang Yuan who gave the comment with their peripheral vision, and then focused on the battle on the field.
Facing this golden sword energy, Taoist Wild Dog acted quite calmly. He raised his hand to cover his face, and the bone tooth bracelet on his wrist immediately flew up, and a wall of white bones instantly rose from the ground, blocking his face. .
The golden sword energy struck the wall of bones, beyond everyone's expectation. It was directly smashed into pieces and turned into a ball of golden debris that flew away in the wind.
Then, the wall of bones instantly collapsed.
Taoist Wild Dog calmly stretched out his palm and pinched Zeng Shushu lightly. Everyone saw Zeng Shushu's palm drooping instantly, his fingers twisting, and the sword he was holding suddenly fell apart.
The other hand holding the Xuanyuan Sword also showed obvious distortion. Following this sudden change, the Xuanyuan Sword also fell to the ground.
The dull sound seemed to hit everyone's hearts.
A cultivator can't even hold his own magic weapon...
What kind of joke is this? !
But the question is, what exactly is this method?
Praying and chanting incantations?
Royal envoy's magic weapon?
Wild Dog Taoist did not do a single thing.
It’s that simple!
Zeng Shushu’s hand was scrapped like this!
certainly.
Not completely scrapped.
Whether it was the twisting of the hand bones or the twisting of the phalanges, there was no sound of breaking. Judging from the current situation, it was probably just a dislocation.
But Zeng Shushu's face didn't look good at the moment.
Rolling cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
His face was pale, his teeth were clenched, and his hands, which were completely out of strength, dared not move or touch him. They could only keep their twisted shape hanging on both sides of his body, looking extremely funny.
"Is there anything else you want to try?"
Taoist Wild Dog smiled and said calmly.
Although the face has been modified over the years and has become more pleasing to the eye, it is still not very good-looking. Although it has a bit of high-spiritedness, it looks particularly ferocious in the eyes of Lu Xueqi and other Qingyun Sect disciples.
Lu Xueqi hurriedly took a step forward, looked at Zeng Shushu who was sweating not far away, glanced at Taoist Wild Dog not far away, and asked loudly: "How is Junior Brother Zeng doing?"
"not so good."
Zeng Shushu squeezed out these words through his teeth.
Whether it is from the appearance or the tone of voice, one can tell that Zeng Shushu's condition is indeed not very good at the moment, especially the twisted arms. Although they look nothing, more like a simple dislocation, there is nothing that can be done if it is just a simple dislocation. Let a cultivator suffer so much.
Taoist Wild Dog smiled and said nothing.
His gaze spanned the void and fell on Dongfang Yuan.
"I wonder what Master Dongfang Young Valley has to say?"
"Does this trick of mine still appeal to you?"
Dongfang Yuan acted very calmly and did not get angry because of Taoist Wild Dog's pointed rhetorical question. Instead, he stood there with his arms folded and commented lightly:
"Interesting rules."
"You can control the bones at will, and even control the bones in other people's bodies from a distance, making all the people you control become puppets in your hands. Although it is not yet fearless of death, as a auxiliary The means are quite good.”
"However, this rule is not very harmful."
"Not only that, but in terms of endurance and other aspects, it is not the first level of rules. If you take into account the rules hedging or the gap in cultivation, your move is just a grass-cutting magic skill at best!"
"Just like just now, you directly controlled the arm and fingers of Fellow Daoist Zeng and reversed it. Not only did it suppress the meridians on Fellow Daoist Zeng's arm, but it also gave Fellow Daoist Zeng a feeling of soreness and soreness."
"But in fact, if Fellow Daoist Zeng's cultivation level is not high, you don't need to go to such trouble. You only need to twist Fellow Daoist Zeng's arm, or even directly control Fellow Daoist Zeng's arm to cut Fellow Daoist Zeng's throat. That's it."
"Simple, crisp and clean, saving time and effort."
"But you didn't do that."
"In the final analysis, it still lies in the gap in cultivation."
"To put it in simpler terms, it means that Fellow Daoist Zeng has a relatively strong resistance to your move, which inherently reduces part of your control strength."
"That's the weak part of the rule."
"Anyone who can resist can hold you down and beat you."
"Anyone who cannot resist can be killed at will."
As he spoke, Dongfang Yuan walked slowly to Zeng Shushu. When passing by Zeng Shushu, he reached out and patted Zeng Shushu on the shoulder.
Along with the sound of bones cracking, Zeng Shushu's twisted arm immediately returned to its original state. Although there was still pain, it was still much better than before.
Dongfang Yuan stomped his foot and held the Xuanyuan Sword that was sent flying behind him with his backhand. He narrowed his eyes lightly and asked with a meaningful smile:
"Do you know the difference between us and you?"
"You know what I hate most?"
"Do you think you can block a random sword strike from me?"
Having said that, without waiting for Taoist Wild Dog to reply, the nine-round sun appeared instantly from the void behind Dongfang Yuan. Dongfang Yuan raised the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand high and lowered it to Taoist Wild Dog lightly.
Time and space seemed to freeze at this moment.
That sword was filled with extreme light and heat, even reaching the meaning of black destruction. Even if it was slow, no one could avoid it!
The wild dog Taoist cannot escape.
Lu Xueqi and others couldn't escape either.
Youji and Baguio still can't hide.
But at this moment, the golden bell around Baguio's neck suddenly shook. With the sound visible to the naked eye, everyone seemed to suddenly regain the right to move, gasping for air.
You Ji subconsciously looked at Baguio.
To be precise, he looked at the golden bell tied with a red string around Baguio Jade's neck. He couldn't help but swallowed and murmured to himself: "Should I say that it is worthy of being left by that person?"
"Who left it?"
Tian Linger was holding her chest at the side.
After taking a few breaths, he asked in surprise.
Youji looked sideways slightly and paused. Seeing that Baguio had nothing to say, she slowly opened her mouth and said word by word: "Mako and his father!"
Lu Xueqi's pupils narrowed slightly.
But in the end, he controlled himself and didn't look back.
But Tian Linger was shocked!
He was about to ask, but was interrupted by Baguio asking himself.
"Are these the four stages of the rules?"
"Perceive, touch, explore, control!"
Not far away, Taoist Wild Dog swallowed his foam. After hearing Baguio's muttering, he cautiously raised his head and glanced at the Eastern Young Valley Master in front of him, and then resisted the pain that stopped on his neck. The tingling sensation caused by the Xuanyuan Sword slowly echoed:
"Miss Baguio is right."
"You can only have different phases when you reach the stage of exploration."
"To be precise, it is the reward of this world!"
"Depending on the degree of exploration, the power that each cultivator who understands the rules can exert is endless. The different phases can not only be carried out alone to put psychological pressure on the opponent, but can actually be integrated into any attack."
"Just like the sword Master Dongfang Shaogu used just now."
"It looks unremarkable, with no fire or ice attached, and the speed is very ordinary, just like an ordinary person swinging a sword."
"But the reality is that when the alien appearance is integrated into this sword, all people without alien appearances will have their minds taken away by this ordinary sword."
"It's not that my body can't move."
"But the soul is suppressed!"
"The turning of any thought is so clear, but the turning of any thought is so heavy. The body cannot receive the order given by the soul at all, but the soul feels that it has given the order!"
"This is the hallmark of stage three!"
"Similarly, if a person doesn't have a trump card, it will be difficult to regain his confidence after being defeated by this sword. From time to time, he can recall this attack that combines different aspects, and then develop inner demons over time."
"Fortunately, Miss Baguio's golden bell has been touched, so that you can avoid being entangled by your own inner demons in the rest of your life..."
Having said this, Taoist Wild Dog couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Looking at Dongfang Yuan, he asked respectfully: "I wonder if Lord Dongfang Shaogu is satisfied with my answer to the first question you asked?"
Seeing this scene, many people laughed out loud.
Taoist Wild Dog gave them a demonstration of what it means to be arrogant at first and respectful at the end.
Before taking action, he was extremely arrogant.
After the sword fell, he laughed honestly.
Dongfang Yuan was not affected by the laughter. He just calmly put down the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand and gave the wild dog Taoist a chance to breathe. He immediately threw the Xuanyuan Sword to Zeng Shushu and replied with a flat look:
"Quite satisfactory."
"As for the answers to the last two questions, I think it makes more sense and is easier to convince people after I swing this sword."
"I hate feeling manipulated."
"Judging from the results, you can't stop my sword."
"So, I can leave when I want and come when I want."
"You can stop them, but you can't stop me!"
"Maybe I will regret not going in, or even lose some of the secrets I have been exploring, but as long as I am willing, no one can hold me back!"
Hearing this, all the disciples in the three sects of the Righteous Way felt an unspeakable sense of domineering and arrogance. Even Youji, one of the four great envoys of the Ghost King Sect, couldn't help but admire Dongfang Yuan's temper and character.
Only Baguio squinted his eyes and bit his lips, trying hard to suppress his smile.
In other words, stop yourself from laughing too much!
Everyone on the field had different expressions.
But Taoist Wild Dog, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, acted very calmly. Although he did not deny Dongfang Yuan's statement, he also spoke out a fact.
"This is not about manipulating you."
"Just saying, we provide a shortcut."
"If you want to find the answer quickly, I believe that the hall master will not let you down; if you just resist fate for the sake of resisting fate, maybe this is the fate you will face in the end?"
“There are always tests.”
"But our hall master once specially told me something when I came out, asking him to tell you after seeing you. I wonder if you have the patience, considering what our Blood Refining Hall has done over the years. listen?"
Hearing Taoist Wild Dog say this, everyone couldn't help but become curious. Dongfang Yuan also nodded slightly and calmly ordered: "Tell me about it!"
"Our hall leader said: We are all chess pieces, but now we have an opportunity to become chess players and play chess with the sky. If we win, we can become the friends or comrades of the sky. Thinking of this, why don't we find a few comrades to try together? , the process of self-awareness is a bit too boring!”
Play against the sky!
If you win, you can become Tian's friend or comrade-in-arms!
Find a few colleagues and try it together!
A few simple words, although they still sounded vague and confusing, but the big picture was laid out at once!
Lu Xueqi and others held their breath.
It seems that he wants to analyze the conversation that follows.
See if you can analyze anything from these conversations.
Unfortunately, the results were disappointing.
After Dongfang Yuan pondered for a moment, he no longer had the intention to continue talking, let alone ask. He waved his hand, said "I know", and turned to look at the entrance of the cave.
There was another moment of silence.
After silence, Dongfang Yuan's voice came.
"There was a reason I had to go in."
"This time, I won't protect you anymore."
"If you are all willing to go in, then come with me. If you are not willing to go in, stay outside and be prepared to starve to death."
"If the things inside are not resolved, people outside will definitely not be able to leave. If the things inside are resolved, people outside can leave directly."
"If I'm not mistaken, that's it."
In an instant, a big question mark seemed to appear on everyone's head. Looking at Dongfang Yuan who said something that even he was not sure about, everyone felt an unprecedented sense of unreliability.
What does this mean?
First of all, Dongfang Yuan had a reason to go in.
This sentence is actually easy to understand.
There is nothing worth analyzing.
Secondly, Dongfang Yuan will no longer protect them.
Let’s not talk about whether Dongfang Yuan has this intention, nor the ruthlessness of Dongfang Yuan’s words. Just talking about everything that happened on the way here, Dongfang Yuan is sure that he is serious about protecting them?
Instead of "casual" protection?
To say that Dongfang Yuan didn't take action is obviously slander.
In the insect tide, give Qingyun Sect advice.
In the metal creation, he took action to bring the disciples of Qingyun Sect and Tianyin Temple to a safe place, resolving the crisis in disguise.
But to say Dongfang Yuan is serious is a bit exaggerated.
If Dongfang Yuan was really serious, Tianyin Temple would not have damaged these disciples during the insect wave and would have directly let Tian Linger bleed, saving time and effort.
But the problem is that the disciples of Fenxiang Valley are at the front of the team. Even if they are trying to trick others, there is no need to trick the disciples of their own sect, right?
Therefore, Dongfangyuan's protection is more like free-range breeding.
If you can't practice to death, practice to death!
Isn’t going down the mountain just for practice?
Protection still depends on Dongfang Yuan’s mood!
So, it’s okay not to need this protection! ! !
certainly.
The above sentence is a joke.
However, in short, Lu Xueqi and others did not take this sentence seriously, because from a factual point of view, it was almost the same whether they had this protection or not.
Secondly, there is the argument about whether to enter or not.
According to Dongfang Yuan's meaning, it can be inferred that there is a trouble inside, and this trouble must be solved. Only those who stay outside can choose to abandon this road that can only go forward without turning back, and return to the original road.
However, the specific time for resolution cannot yet be determined.
In other words, if the people who go in to solve the problem take too long or all die, then the people who stay outside will only die.
Even if the wild dog Taoist didn't stop them, let alone the terrifying insect tide, just the words "playing chess with the sky", no one would want to see it.
How powerful are immortal cultivators?
Destroying a city and changing its location is easy!
But facing this high sky, they don't even know whether the sky really exists. All the immortal cultivators are still like a group of frogs at the bottom of a well, sitting in the well and looking at the sky.
And now the leader of the Blood Refining Hall even wants to recruit several colleagues to compete with the sky. The only ones who can possess this qualification are the two remaining geniuses!
Dongfang Yuan is on the safe side.
The remaining one should be Demon Zi Lu Yuan.
Let’s not talk about how shocking this idea is to the world. Just saying that Dongfang Yuan can agree to it explains everything from the side!
obviously.
This is a big gamble!
It was a huge gamble that only the most amazing geniuses in the world of immortality dared to join forces to deal with!
The power of each genius is obvious to all.
And to be able to have these geniuses join forces...
How powerful is the opponent? !
No one knows this question.
Because Dongfang Yuan didn’t explain anything.
However, whether it is to join in to increase the winning rate of these geniuses so that they can survive, or to hold on to the idea of occupying the magpie's nest and finally picking the fruits of victory, there is actually no other choice left for them!
Either go in...
Either go in...
The more people there are, the better the chance of winning.
Even if it only increases the probability by 0.00001%, it is still better than if they go in alone and then go down one after another like dumplings!
After all, their numbers are here!
To put it in the most ugly words, that is to say, even if they die, they will have someone to support them, and no matter what, they will have someone to bury them with.
However, what left everyone speechless the most was Dongfang Yuan's final words. This was the result if he guessed correctly.
So, here comes the problem!
What if Dongfang Yuan guesses wrong?
Aren't they all tricked to death?
But it was Dongfang Yuan's uncertain tone that made Lu Xueqi, Fa Xiang, Yan Hong and other disciples choose to believe in Dongfang Yuan once, and decided that this was a gamble that was both dangerous and opportunity-based!
Baguio didn't care much.
However, she pretended to care.
She knew very well that Lu Yuan had a strong ability to control the identity of each of his clones. Unless there were some special moments, no clone would act rashly against his own identity or personality!
And the one she chose was the real Lu Yuan!
That's the big brother who saved her back then!
Therefore, when she has this level of identity, she will not be sacrificed as a victim in Lu Yuan's plan. Even if she doesn't know what Lu Yuan's plan is yet, she is very sure of it.
And in fact, determining this is enough!
Precisely because Baguio is the eldest lady of the Ghost King Sect and has seen countless conspiracies and conspiracies in the devil's way, she can grasp the core point of the whole matter at once, eliminating a series of turnarounds!
Therefore, although Baguio still didn't know what Lu Yuan's plan was and why she was brought here, she still chose to believe in Lu Yuan and tried her best to cooperate with Lu Yuan to complete the plan.
Regarding Baguio, to be honest, Lu Yuan also felt some complicated emotions at work in his heart. He couldn't say he was guilty, but he couldn't be guiltless. He couldn't be used, but he couldn't be used either.
At present, he can only jump horizontally repeatedly in this stage.
but……
"Soon!"
"Soon!"
"The plan is about to come to fruition!"
"I got the third volume of the Book of Heaven, and only the fifth volume is left!"
"But after I got the third volume of the Book of Heaven, these identities have no meaning. I should repay them, but there is no need to cover them up anymore."
"The Immortal Killing Sword must be extremely difficult to obtain."
"Before life and death, I really should give her an explanation. Even though this explanation is likely to be a fleeting one, at least I gave her an answer for these ten years."
"Given a..."
"The answer is within the limit of my ability!"
Standing in the 18th layer of fault space, Lu Yuan slowly raised his hand, his dark eyes were deep, looking at the familiar ice and fire eyes in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh, lightly stamped his feet, and the black mountain under his feet suddenly started to squirm. .
Look closely, this is a black mountain!
Looking from a distance...
Where the hell is Montenegro?
This is clearly a giant python!
"Xiao Hei, we should go."
Lu Yuan stretched out his hands and tore it apart with all his strength.
The boring gray beach suddenly appeared on the other side of the void. Looking in the distance, it was a lifeless sea. Looking up along the sea, there were patches of cliffs.
"The Abyss of Death, the Merciless Sea."
"Xiao Hei, let's go!"
"Let's go welcome some friends!"
The sound slowly dissipated.
Together with the neighing sound that reached the sky and the earth, it also dissipated without a trace.
This space became quiet again.
Only the flowers and plants are still swaying slightly.
