"Death Qi? Use it for yourself?" Lin Jingzhe was stunned for a while. He had never heard that one could practice by absorbing the Qi of the dead.
"Well, we absorb the energy of the dead, just like you absorb spiritual energy. It is a cultivation method."
"Are there any side effects from absorbing the energy of the dead?" Lin Jingzhe asked, expressing her doubts.
"Yes." The woman explained: "Absorbing the breath of the dead will make you smell like a corpse."
"Then why can't I smell the corpse smell on your body?"
"We have a hundred-year-old Zen incense to cover our body odor, so fellow Taoists will naturally not be able to smell it."
"Oh, that's it." Lin Jingzhe nodded and asked, "Do you know how to perform illusions?"
"No," the woman said.
"No?" Lin Jingzhe looked at her, his expression gradually becoming cold.
Seeing him like this, the woman quickly explained: "Mortals will hallucinate when they inhale corpse gas, so that's what you saw them fighting in the desert last time."
"The corpse energy is the white mist?"
"Um."
"Then why did the guard general die so miserably last time? Could it be that it was also caused by the hallucination of corpse energy?"
"That's the Corpse Evil and Turbid Yin Technique I performed."
"The Corpse Evil Turbid Yin Technique?" Lin Jingzhe did not ask. This technique sounded very weird.
"Are you at the seventh level of Qi training now?"
"Reply to fellow Taoist, I have already reached the eighth level of Qi training."
"You have practiced Qi at the eighth level, and I have practiced Qi at the ninth level. Why do you say that we are the rivals of that national master?"
"Although I am not in the Foundation Establishment stage, our brother's physical body is a bronze corpse, which is almost equivalent to a monk in the Foundation Establishment stage. He was also cut off by a fellow Taoist sword with a wound more than three inches deep."
After the woman finished speaking, she opened the clothes on Dead Face's chest, revealing a shocking scar.
"This is the wound left by fellow Taoist to my brother."
Lin Jingzhe was stunned for a while. She obviously didn't know that the wound she left on the dead man's face in the jungle was the "Sword Sword" she had raised for two years.
"That day when I struck the dead man's face with my sword, it was you who made that miserable moan of a woman, right?"
"Reply to fellow Taoist monks, it's the little girl." The woman paused and added: "We corpse cultivators each have their own natal corpse slaves, just like you righteous cultivators, we all have our own natal magic weapons. However, we corpse slaves and Your magic weapons are different, our natal corpse slaves will improve as the monks’ strength increases.”
"Your brother has a higher level of cultivation than you. Why can you control your brother's body?"
"It should be related to blood relationship."
"Oh." Lin Jingzhe pretended to have a sudden realization. He had already asked all the questions he needed to ask, and now he was considering whether to take the risk and fight the Imperial Master.
Seeing that Lin Jingzhe had not made any next move, the woman asked, "Do you still have concerns, fellow Taoist?"
"Yeah." Lin Jingzhe nodded, not hiding anything, "I don't know how much I can believe what you just said?"
"How much do you believe it?" After hearing this, the woman was stunned for a while. How much can she believe what she just revealed her true feelings to the young Taoist Priest?
"Haha." The woman couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Since the Taoist priest is unwilling to help, then I won't bother you."
After saying that, he waved to Dead Man Face and exited the cabin.
"Wait a minute."
The woman was overjoyed and turned around, "Master Taoist, can you answer..."
Lin Jingzhe interrupted her, pointed to the spiritual stone on the ground, and said, "You have no merit and no reward, take it back."
The woman paused, then shook her head, "I have no use keeping them, so I will give them to fellow Taoists."
"The Imperial Master asked you to come and kill me, but you go back empty-handed. How are you going to deliver?"
"The Imperial Master's original intention is for me to stop you. Whether or not I can kill you is only secondary."
"What's the meaning?"
"The Imperial Master wants to turn the entire Cangzhou City into a dojo for his training."
"The whole city?" Lin Jingzhe took a deep breath. This Imperial Preceptor was crazier than the old witch. The old witch only dared to sneak up and abduct people up the mountain, but this Imperial Preceptor wanted to make the entire city's people his. rations.
"When did you start?"
"It started half a year ago, and now is the real fight for control of Cangzhou."
"You want to rebel?"
"That's right." After the woman said this, she stopped staying, started walking, and was about to leave.
"etc."
"Huh?" The woman turned around again.
"Where are you now?"
"The Grand Master's Residence."
"Master?"
…
In Wang Taishi's Mansion, the fighting is still going on. Many people have fallen on the ground. The fishy smell is astounding, like a place of purgatory.
King Chu Huai was slashed on his arm, leaving his flesh and blood bruised. He was surrounded by people from the Wang family, and his face was as white as paper.
The Imperial Master did not participate in this mortal fight. After all, with his current methods, he could knock down a large area with just a wave of his hand.
He raised his head and watched with cold eyes, as if the fight had nothing to do with him.
"Master Wang, why don't you ask the immortal behind you to help?" King Chu Huai gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and said to Wang Yi beside him.
"Immortal?" Wang Yi was stunned.
"Master Wang, I heard that your son was selected by the Immortal Sect to practice in the mountains. If you don't ask the Immortals behind him to come out and help him, I'm afraid this Cangzhou City will flow into a river of blood and all life will be ruined."
"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to ask Quanzi Xianmen for help. It's true that I don't know where Quanzi's Immortal Family's holy land is, and Quanzi is still in seclusion and hasn't come down from the mountain yet, but..."
"But what?"
"But Quanzi's junior brother is in Cangzhou City."
"Then why don't you invite him over?"
"He..." Wang Yi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "His Majesty issued a wanted order."
"Are you talking about that young Taoist priest?"
"Exactly."
"I was forced by Zhang Pifu and the Imperial Preceptor to issue that wanted order." King Huai of Chu smiled bitterly, "Master Wang, please quickly ask him to come over and help. After the matter is completed, I will allow him to serve as this person." The position of national master."
"It's not that I don't want to ask him to come out to help, but I don't know where he is now."
"This?" King Chu Huai smiled bitterly, and suddenly he seemed to have made up his mind: "If our people really can't support General Yue Long's return, then you can kill me and protect yourself."
When Wang Yi heard this, he was shocked and said quickly: "I don't dare."
"Why don't you dare? Anyway, I will die in their hands. The one who can save you is the only one..."
"I don't dare to do this treasonous thing. Please stop trying to persuade me, Your Majesty."
"Your stubborn temper is still the same as ten years ago. It has never changed."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
"Praise?" King Chu Huai was stunned. If this is also called a compliment, then I don't know how many people I have praised in my life.
"Do you hate me?"
"How can I have the courage to hate the emperor?"
"Ten years ago, when the world was peaceful, I drove you out of Cangzhou. Ten years later, when the geniuses were in chaos, I called you back and put your Wang family in danger. Wang Aiqing, do you really not hate me?"
"It's too late for me to thank the Emperor. If the Emperor had not terminated my official position ten years ago, I would not have enjoyed the family happiness of being together as a family in the past ten years. And ten years later, I will be honored that His Majesty can think of me. , how can we talk about hating the emperor?"
"Haha." King Huai of Chu said: "You are still generous, Wang Taishi. As the emperor, I spend my whole day scheming about this and this. With a cautious heart, I am worried that this or that will spy on my country. I never thought that in the end, my country will still be the same. You have to give in."
"Your Majesty, if we hold on, there should be a glimmer of hope."
"Vitality?" King Chu Huai pointed to the imperial master fighting the cricket in the corner and said, "We are about to be defeated before that immortal thief takes action. If he really takes action, we will just lie down." ”
Lying down?
Wang Yi was stunned. He didn't expect that King Huai of Chu also had such a humorous side. It was really rare.
"Wang Aiqing, please stay here, I am going to kill the enemy." At this time, King Huai of Chu stood up suddenly.
"Your Majesty, you are already injured."
"What do these minor injuries count for? I died on the battlefield and did not die in humiliation." As he said that, he saw him holding a blood-stained sword and rushing towards one of Prime Minister Zhang's private soldiers.
"Emperor Dog, if you haven't come here to die, how long will it take?"
Prime Minister Zhang was overjoyed when he saw King Chu Huai charging at one of his private soldiers. He was still worried about how to end the battle, but he didn't expect that the other party could not wait to come over and die.
"Everyone listens to the order. Anyone who captures the Dog Emperor will get a reward of one hundred taels. If he kills the Dog Emperor, he will also get eighty taels of gold." Prime Minister Zhang did not forget to add: "If I were to take the throne that time, today I will be with you." The generals who share the joys and sorrows are all of the third rank."
For those on the rebel side, these encouragements are indeed useful.
Gu Changshou and others also felt their hands were tight, and they all frowned.
The fighting continued, with fewer and fewer people on the scene, but more and more blood on the ground.
"Emperor Dog, let me die for you." Prime Minister Zhang was overjoyed when he saw King Huai of Chu being surrounded by a few of his private soldiers. He took out the short knife at his waist and tried to stab him.
"Zhang Pifu, before you take the throne, you call yourself a widower. I will make you a real widower." Before he finished speaking, King Huai of Chu waved his long sword, and all his martial arts were used to their fullest in an instant.
"Clang clang clang!"
A long sword stirred up countless sword flowers, and he quickly broke away from the surroundings of several soldiers and stabbed Prime Minister Zhang towards him.
With a "shaking" sound, the short knife in Prime Minister Zhang's hand fell off and fell to the ground. King Chu Huai struck his arm with a sword. With a squeaking sound, Prime Minister Zhang let out a scream, and his entire arm was suddenly stained red with blood.
"Zhang Pifu, with just a little bit of skill, you dare to compete with me for this territory?" King Huai of Chu sneered, struck out with his sword, took his head and left.
"National Preceptor, save me!"
"waste!"
The Imperial Master, who was fighting crickets at the side, without looking back, just flicked his fingers, and an invisible energy stirred up King Chu Huai's long sword, and there was only a "dang" sound.
King Chu Huai only felt his arms sink, and his body suddenly felt as if he had been hit by a hammer. He involuntarily stepped back several steps.
"Wow!"
Just as he stabilized his body, his throat felt sweet and he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"emperor."
"It doesn't matter." King Chu Huai quickly shook his hand, only looking at the broken long sword in his hand, and asked: "General Zhuo, do you have a suitable weapon?"
"Your Majesty, just wait and let me protect you."
"All brothers have been injured. I can help as much as I can. Don't forget, I was once a martial artist. What do these minor injuries count?"
