...
The mountain road is difficult to travel. When they reach the front of the mountain, You Yuanju and others will dismount and move forward.
Five hundred soldiers of the Guards Battalion marched through the mountains and forests in an orderly manner.
You Yuanju was anxious. As he got closer and closer to the mountain city, the uneasy premonition in his heart became stronger.
He knew something must have happened in the mountain city, but he didn't know how far the situation had developed.
If You Yuanju had known that Yu Zhi had entered the mountain city, obtained Chao Dabiao's waist card, and killed Ying Qiu and other bandits, You Yuanju would never have rushed to the mountain city in such a hurry.
"Send the order and march quickly. We must reach the place where the explosion occurred within a stick of incense."
What You Yuanju fears most is that the mountain city will be exposed to the world. If his personal guard battalion can control the situation, this explosion can be explained.
The so-called controlling the situation is nothing more than killing all the insiders.
A trace of cruelty flashed in You Yuanju's eyes, and he wondered in his heart who caused the explosion!
"Yu Zhi?" You Yuanju couldn't help but think of the censor who had been missing for many days. "Is it really this young man who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth?"
The last thing You Yuanju wanted was that the inspector censor discovered the mountain city.
"If it's really him, then we can only kill him."
You Yuanju made a decision in his heart.
Killing the inspector and censor is tantamount to treason.
If Yu Zhi is killed, the Emperor of Chu will be furious. The Three Divisions will conduct a thorough investigation, and sooner or later the truth will be revealed to the world.
Perhaps he, You Yuanju, and even the entire Su City Army would become prisoners.
But this is also the only choice for You Yuanju at the moment.
...
On the city wall, the evening breeze blew gently, blowing the burning green flame, which flickered on and off.
Yu Zhi's aura began to rise, from the lower level of the seventh level of the opening monument, to the upper level of the seventh level, to the lower level of the eighth level of the opening of the stele.
With the blessing of Biluo Qingyan, Yu Zhi's cultivation reached a new level.
Cao Ling looked at Yu Zhi, who was on fire, his eyes resting on the green flames, and said: "This flame can actually enhance the realm, it is really miraculous."
Apart from the green flames, Cao Ling's eyes fell on the broken armor again.
"This armor of yours is also very strange. Although it is broken, it gives me an indescribable feeling. Haha, I didn't expect that you are covered with treasures. However, it is a pity that after you die tonight, these things will belong to me. "
Cao Ling waved his hand and summoned a long spear. The silver tip of the spear shone with a cold light. At first glance, it was not ordinary.
But this was not an ordinary spear in front of Cao Ling's burly figure, but it only reached Cao Ling's shoulders.
Buzz!
Yu Zhi rushed out first, and the green flames flew out. Now Yu Zhi can control Biluo Qingyan at will, and even the "Fire Control Technique" is only an auxiliary, no longer the leader.
Knowing that Cao Ling was one of Yanyun's eighteen cavalry, Yu Zhi had the idea of a battle in his heart.
From the capital to the north, and then back to the capital, all the eighteen riders of Yanyun were chasing Yu Zhi and scheming against him.
But now Yu Zhi doesn't want to run away. Cao Ling, who is at the eighth level of Kaibei, is the only opponent Yu Zhi can hope to defeat now.
As soon as the stars moved, Yu Zhi's figure changed in a trance and rushed towards Cao Ling. For example, Yu Zhi's realm has reached the eighth level of the Open Monument, and the "Instant Star" recorded in the Three Thousand Stars Post is the world's top martial arts.
Naturally, Cao Ling couldn't catch up with his body skills.
The long sword in Yu Zhi's hand stabbed Cao Ling with an extremely decisive gesture.
There was thunder in the sky, purple thunder fell, and arcs of lightning filled the air like countless dancing snakes.
Cao Ling's figure was unexpectedly flexible, and the spear in his hand swept across, and a blast of gun wind blew away the flying green flames.
A sonorous sound!
The tip of the spear was placed on Yu Zhi's sword, and the true energy poured out, driving Yu Zhi away like wind and residual clouds.
Immediately afterwards, Cao Ling swung his spear. A long spear was in Cao Ling's hand with ease, and countless sharp edges came overwhelmingly towards Yu Zhi.
A series of sharp edges intertwined into a network, and a series of cold lights became more powerful, blocking Yu Zhi's retreat routes before and after.
Yu Zhi didn't hide, because he had no way out and didn't want to. There was anger in his heart, anger towards Xiang Jinghao in Baiweiju in Kyoto, anger towards Jiang Xiyue after learning about his life experience after a long conversation in Qiu Mansion, and anger towards the bandits who let innocent children die from the mouths of wild beasts under the city wall. angry.
Compared with Yu Zhi a year ago, Yu Zhi now doesn't want to hide and doesn't have to hide.
Yu Zhi turned into a shooting star and galloped on the city wall. The golden light surged and turned into the shadow of the golden bell. Sanskrit characters appeared on the shadow of the golden bell one by one, full of mysterious and simple power.
In this way, Yu Zhi was shrouded in the shadow of the golden bell and directly hit the oncoming edge.
Dang, Dang, Dang!
Countless sounds echoed in the city. The beasts in the enclosure roared and the golden bells rang, cheering for this fierce battle.
Cao Ling looked at Yu Zhi with a sneer on his lips.
"They are both at the eighth level of the Open Monument, but there is an essential difference between the power gained through real practice and the power gained through external objects!"
Yu Zhi smiled disdainfully and said, "What's the use of talking so much?"
Just as the golden bell's shadow was about to dissipate, Yu Zhi's figure shot out from among the countless sharp edges.
The blue green flames did not cover the long sword. Cao Ling was right, the sword in Yu Zhi's hand was a mortal object after all. Such a mortal object could not withstand the consumption of powerful martial arts, nor could it bear the power of Biluo Qingyan.
The sword light raged and rushed towards Cao Ling.
The cold breath continued to float out of Yu Zhi. The two sword moves taught by Li Haomiao - summoning wind and snow, causing thunder, and even "Golden Bell" and "Instant Star" are other people's martial arts.
Although they are both top-notch martial arts, except for two sword moves, "Golden Bell" and "Twilight Star" are not proficient.
Ye Qinghuan understood the rudiments of sword intention when he was at the sixth level of Armor Breaking, and even created his own sword technique "Frost Destruction". After stepping into the Open Monument, he continued to move forward, and it was a matter of course.
This is Ye Qinghuan's accumulation of thousands of times of practice in the first six grades, thick and thin.
And Yu Zhi didn't practice thousands of times, and even fighting in battles was very rare. Therefore, Yu Zhi practiced slowly and still did not understand his swordsmanship after entering the seventh level of Kaibei.
Buzz!
Cao Ling took half a step back, charged up his spear, and then thrust out.
The sharpness of the eighth grade Kaibei is already at the top level in the world. Sword light enveloped the two of them. The sword light bombarded the spear, and the spear light was divided into ten thousand, blocking the sword light. In just an instant, the sword light dissipated.
Cao Ling touched the ground with both feet, flew out, and swept his spear across, roaring in the wind.
A powerful and heavy move, trying to smash Yu Zhi's body into pieces.
Cao Ling has been training in the army all year round. Although he is ranked at the bottom of Yanyun's Eighteen Cavalry, he is the person who has been with Xiang Ji for the longest time. When Xiang Ji led the army, he must have Cao Ling under his command. His achievements in the southern and northern wars were enough for Cao Ling to be conferred the title of Marquis of Wu. However, Cao Ling never accepted the imperial title and was always under Xiang Ji's command.
Cao Ling's cultivation is extremely exquisite.
The spear that swept forward again hit Yu Zhi's body. In an instant, Yu Zhi hit the distant city wall like a flying arrow.
The sound of the wind roared in Yu Zhi's ears, and the blood in his body began to boil. Countless blood flowers were scattered in the air, and then Yu Zhi crashed into the wall of the animal trap.
boom!
The city wall collapsed, denting a huge hole. The flying dust obscured Yu Zhi's figure, and pieces of falling rocks rolled down from the city wall, burying Yu Zhi.
On the city wall, Cao Ling stared at the dust that filled the area and snorted coldly.
"Power gained through external objects is always fake!"
Cao Ling's voice floated out, mocking Yu Zhi. He knew Yu Zhi would be able to hear it.
Yu Zhi, who was in the ruins, forcibly exhaled a breath of turbid air and smoothed out the breath in his body again. He was afraid in his heart, if General Jia had not resisted, all my internal organs would have been shattered.
The broken general's armor exudes a faint dark fluorescence.
This is what Yun Jin left behind, and it protected Yun Jin during the war a thousand years ago. Even if it is dilapidated now, it is not something that a mere eighth-grade Kaistele can underestimate.
"It seems that the power enhanced by Biluo Qingyan is limited after all."
After the beasts in the trap saw the city wall collapse, they rushed towards the collapsed city wall. They also smell food.
In an instant, several beasts were already around the ruins, with sticky saliva in their mouths.
Whoosh whoosh!
The falling rocks that were pressing on Yu Zhi suddenly flew out and hit the beast.
Caught off guard, these beasts fell to the ground one after another, losing the ability to move for a while.
Yu Zhi's eyes swept over these beasts, and he knew that these beasts wanted to eat him. At the same time, he was even more convinced that the beasts in front of him might as well not have reached the level of black tiger mutation.
If Black Tiger were here, he would never dare to have such evil thoughts towards Yu Zhi. Even though he was hungry, Black Tiger chose to endure the hunger in his belly.
Yu Zhi raised his head and looked at Yun Jin high up, and said, "As you said, the power gained from external objects is ultimately false. Look at these mutated beasts, don't they verify your words?"
No matter how normal a beast is, it will never have the size and fighting power it has now. Everything is caused by the changes caused by the source of night ghosts.
Cao Ling stared at Yu Zhi and saw the blood at the corner of his mouth. He took a step forward and his figure disappeared on the city wall. The next moment, he appeared in front of Yu Zhi's eyes, with the tip of the spear directly between his eyebrows.
Yu Zhi dodged, but the speed of "Instant Star" was not comparable to Cao Ling's.
When the tip of the spear pierced the center of his eyebrow, only an afterimage of Yu Zhi was left on the spot.
"Too slow!" Yu Zhi said contemptuously.
Being humiliated by the young man, Cao Ling was naturally angry.
One chasing and the other escaping, the two flew and fought on the city wall.
For dozens of rounds, Yu Zhi fought and retreated, and the green blue flames continued to vibrate out.
The spear also kept dancing, bombarding Yu Zhi.
The entire animal trap soon became a complete ruin.
boom!
The two of them were separated by a city wall more than ten meters thick, and each took action. The swords, air guns and winds collided, blasting the rocks of the city into countless floating powder.
As city walls collapsed one after another, the battle between the two became more intense.
Cao Ling was unable to catch up with Yu Zhi's speed and could not defeat Yu Zhi for a long time. And Yu Zhi could not withstand the Biluo Qingyan for a long time. Even if his body had been tempered many times, he would not be able to withstand the power of the Biluo Qingyan forever.
Yu Zhi's breathing was stagnant, and the movement of his true energy was stagnant for a moment.
The moment the green blue flames disappeared, Yu Zhi's aura continued to fall.
At this moment, Cao Ling keenly seized this opportunity.
"Go to hell!"
Take advantage of his illness and kill him!
The ten-meter-thick city wall shattered into pieces, and Cao Ling's figure was knocked out of it.
The spear is in front, approaching Yu Zhi. If this blow hits, Yu Zhi will not die but will be seriously injured.
In a hurry, Yu Zhi took a breath of Qi, and while flying back, the long sword in his hand slashed out in an orderly manner.
"Call the wind and snow, cause the thunder!"
"Get up together!"
