With Elder Triangle Eyes leading the way, Zhang Ze sneaked into Xuantian Sect smoothly. After that, he took Elder Triangle Eyes and other disciples back to the summoning space, and quietly walked to the medicine garden where Han Li was staying alone.
When he arrived at the medicine garden, Zhang Ze saw Han Li tending some medicinal herbs from a distance, so he walked over and said hello: "Second brother."
Han Li was stunned when he heard the voice. He looked up and found that it was Zhang Ze. His expression suddenly changed, and then he said in an impatient tone, "Why did you send the things here? Can you bear the responsibility for delaying my alchemy?" Come with me into the house!"
After that, he pulled Zhang Ze towards the house.
The people working around him did not suspect that he was there. They just took a look and continued to go about their business.
As soon as he entered the house, Han Li immediately closed the door and said nervously: "Brother! How dangerous it is for you to come back! If you are caught... Oh!"
"I came back this time to take away your fourth brother." Zhang Ze patted Han Li on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I can protect myself now."
Han Li looked Zhang Ze up and down, and his face suddenly showed joy: "Brother, your cultivation has exceeded the incarnation stage?"
Han Li himself is in the realm of the incarnation stage. As a result, he can't see through Zhang Ze's cultivation level now, which means that Zhang Ze's cultivation level is higher than him.
"Incarnation stage? No, I'm already in the tribulation stage, and I'm just about to reach the final stage." Zhang Ze said with a smile.
"Brother, you are really a genius!" Han Li looked in admiration. He had been in Xuantian Sect for so many years, but he had never heard of anyone entering the stage of transcending tribulation in just twenty or thirty years.
Even the master Xuan Qing, the master, is only in the Guixu stage of cultivation now, and Zhang Ze has achieved such amazing achievements at such a young age, which can only be described as a genius.
"I can't say I'm a genius, I just got lucky and found a Feng Shui treasure."
Zhang Ze told Han Li about the discovery of the ancient tomb of Lingyin Tianzun, and also told him that Li Xun was now with him and that his strength was about to reach the stage of transcending tribulation.
Han Li was very envious after hearing this, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "I can't leave for the time being. My fourth brother is in jail now. I want to rescue him and let's go together."
"I heard about the fourth brother." Zhang Ze nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, none of our four brothers can be missing! Second brother, please tell me the details first, and we will study how to rescue the four brothers. younger brother."
After understanding, Zhang Ze knew that Zhang Bufan and the Ghost King and other evil demons were now imprisoned in the Sword Tomb. Because of the Ten Jue Tiansha Formation, Xuanqing didn't have to worry about them escaping, nor did he have to worry about someone breaking in and rescuing them. .
Another thing that deserves attention is Master Xuanqing. According to Han Li, Master Xuanqing seems to have changed since he used the Zhuxian Sword last time. He used to be kind and kind, but now he is cold and violent!
Zhang Ze left at that time and did not know what happened next. Han Li told him that in order to find out the "traitors" in the sect, Master Xuanqing imprisoned thousands of people and tortured them severely!
More than a hundred of them could not bear the torture, so they surrendered and were beaten to death. In the end, they were all sentenced to death!
For a time, the entire sect was in turmoil, and everyone was in danger.
"In other words, it is possible that Master Xuanqing became like this due to the influence of the Zhuxian Sword?" Zhang Ze held his chin thoughtfully. When he first saw the Zhuxian Sword, he felt that this ancient sword The magic weapon is abnormal.
Han Li nodded: "It should be so. Everyone has speculated so in private, but there is no evidence."
Zhang Ze walked slowly in the room with his hands behind his back and said: "The fourth brother is imprisoned in the Sword Tomb. We cannot break the Ten Jue Heavenly Evil Formation. We can only wait until he is taken to the execution ground during the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony. Opportunity to save people..."
Han Li sighed and said: "So, this rescue operation is too difficult. It may be difficult for us to succeed alone."
"You don't have to worry about that." Zhang Ze waved his hand and said, "I have helpers, and they are very strong."
"How strong is it?" Han Li was still very worried: "Not to mention the tens of thousands of disciples of Xuantian Sect, let's talk about the elders of the Thirteen Halls, each of them is a top master!"
Zhang Ze smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, the helpers I brought will definitely be better than these elders!"
He took a deep breath and said: "The only thing we need to care about is the Immortal Killing Sword in the hands of Master Xuanqing..."
The two brothers discussed for a few more words, and Zhang Ze quietly went down the mountain and returned to the giant god and others.
He told everyone about Zhang Bufan's situation and the plan of action. Xiaoniao Yiren's eyes widened suddenly and she lost her voice: "Are you kidding me? Just the few of us are robbed in front of tens of thousands of disciples of Xuantian Sect. Execution ground? I thought we rescued people and ran away without anyone noticing. What's the difference between this and committing suicide?"
Tian Tian's Melancholy also felt something was wrong: "There are also the elders of Xuantian Sect and the Zhuxian Sword. This is too difficult."
The giant god was more sensible and asked: "Brother Rakshasa, do you have a better way?"
"Well, I plan to have Mrs. Jin Miao lead her disciples to launch an attack on Xuantian Sect during the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony to attract the attention of Master Xuanqing. Then we can take the opportunity to save people." Zhang Ze Speak your mind.
He raised his eyebrows and said with emotionlessness: "Trying the tiger to leave the mountain? Compared with the Xuantian Sect, the strength of the Huanxi Sect is too small. The Xuantian Sect randomly sent a few elders and hundreds of disciples to suppress them, unable to cause too much momentum, and even more It’s impossible to lure Master Xuanqing there, so I’m afraid your plan won’t work.”
Zhang Ze nodded and said: "The Huanxi Sect is indeed weak, but don't forget, I still have the Ancient Demon God. If I transfer him too, I don't believe that Master Xuanqing can still sit still!"
When everyone heard this, the mountain-like body of the ancient demon god suddenly appeared in their minds. With this big guy, they could indeed alarm Master Xuanqing.
There were still more than ten days until the fifth day of the next month, so everyone found an inn in a small town near Xuantian Sect and stayed temporarily.
On the one hand, Zhang Ze asked the Xuesan people to inform Mrs. Jin Miao of the time of action. On the other hand, he took the Dark Dragon King back to Miao Gao Mountain to bring Lingyin Ark and the Ancient Demon God over to prepare for action.
Time flies by, and the fifth day of the next month is here!
Zhang Ze, Jushen and others all put on the clothes of Xuantian Sect disciples, mixed with the team of Elder Triangle Eyes, and sneaked into Xuantian Sect.
On the other side, after receiving Zhang Ze's order, Mrs. Jin Miao immediately led more than a thousand disciples and elders under her sect to Xuantian Sect. They will cooperate with the ancient demon gods to attack the mountain gate, making as much noise as possible to attract Xuan Qingzhen People go down the mountain.
After everything was arranged, Zhang Bufan was waiting to be taken to the execution ground.
The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony is a grand ceremony held once every hundred years by the Xuantian Sect. It is a ceremony dedicated to worshiping the founder, Saint Xuantian. It is said that Saint Xuantian may appear.
Zhengqi Peak has been split in half due to the last battle, leaving only half of the mountain. Fortunately, the main buildings of the Xuantian Sect are on this half of the mountain, so the heaven-sacrifice ceremony can still be held normally.
In the large square with only half left, tens of thousands of disciples of Xuantian Sect crowded here, hoping to witness the final fate of the evil leader Ghost King, and at the same time, they also hoped to see the grace of their founder, Saint Xuantian.
Han Li mingled among the crowd, holding a few black elixirs in his hands. This elixir can emit a pungent black mist, and its effect is similar to modern smoke/bombs. It can help cover everyone's retreat when rescuing people. .
"Brother, you must succeed!" He muttered in his heart.
At the same time, Zhang Ze, Giant God, Liu Yueying and others were on the other side of the execution ground. Outside them were Elder Triangle Eyes and other disciples. This was done to prevent other disciples from discovering the identities of Zhang Ze and others.
Soon, Master Xuanqing and other elders had already boarded the viewing tower, which indicated that the heaven-sacrifice ceremony was about to begin.
"Come out! The Big Devil King and his men have been escorted out!"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone's attention was attracted.
Zhang Ze also looked over there and saw the Ghost King, Zhang Bufan and other hundreds of evil people with chains pierced through their bones and heavy shackles on their hands and feet. In order to prevent them from resisting, they were also painted all over their bodies. A spell to suppress their power.
This treatment is more grand than the current death penalty felons!
"Go to hell with all the evil sects!"
"Today is your day to die. Repent for the crimes you have committed!"
"When you die, you will all go to hell, and the King of Hell will entertain you well!"
…
Hearing the shouting and cursing around them, some of the evil demons yelled, some retorted, and some glared at each other with murderous eyes...
The Ghost King lowered his head and was silent all the way. Zhang Bufan also lowered his head. His eyes were calm and he kept muttering this name silently: "Abi..."
Master Xuanqing stood on the viewing floor, looking at the Ghost King and the others with a victor's attitude.
Beside him, Cang Songzi had a cold expression. He grasped the sword tightly with his right hand, then slowly released it, struggling fiercely in his heart.
Zhang Ze heard Han Li say that ordinary swords could not kill the Ghost King, so Master Xuanqing decided to use the mysterious fire of heaven and earth to refine elixirs to punish the Ghost King and others and burn them alive!
"The auspicious time has come, let the execution begin!"
Seeing Master Xuanqing's raised gesture, a disciple immediately shouted loudly next to the execution place.
Then, someone stepped forward and pulled out one of the evil demons at random, and locked it in the magic circle in the center of the execution ground. Four executioners were already sitting around the magic circle. They would activate the magic circle and ignite the mysterious fire of heaven and earth. The demon was burned to death.
The Ghost King was scheduled to be executed at the end so that he could watch his followers being killed with his own eyes.
Soon, the execution began, and colorful flames appeared in the center of the circle. The flames grew bigger and bigger, and soon enveloped the demon.
The demon let out a scream one after another, and was quickly engulfed by the mysterious fire of heaven and earth. In the blink of an eye, it was burned to ashes.
Seeing this scene, the righteous disciples burst into cheers.
"Next!"
The executioner ordered without emotion, and the second victim was brought over, then the third, the fourth...
Zhang Ze kept staring at Zhang Bufan, and finally, it was his turn!
Zhang Bufan was escorted to the execution ground. When he passed by the Ghost King, he looked at the Ghost King and whispered: "Sect Master... whatever Bufan owes Abi, he will pay it back in the next life!"
After hearing this, the Ghost King's stagnant expression finally changed. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Bufan's retreating back, with a complicated expression in his eyes.
"Xue San, order Madam Jin Miao to take action immediately!" Zhang Ze conveyed the order to Xue San in his mind, and at the same time issued an attack order to the ancient demon god through the [Seven Star Treasure Box].
On the other side, Xue Sanren immediately conveyed Zhang Ze's order to Mrs. Jin Miao.
Mrs. Jin Miao naturally knew that Zhang Ze was using her and her sect as cannon fodder, but she did not dare to disobey, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and order her men to attack the mountain gate.
"If there is a demon invasion, please report it to the leader immediately!"
The Xuantian Sect disciples guarding the mountain gate were attacked and immediately fought back. However, they were just gatekeepers with low strength and could not resist at all, so they had to urgently ask for help from the sect.
After a while, seven or eight sect elders responsible for the defense led hundreds of disciples to come for reinforcements, and the two sides started a fierce battle.
Mrs. Jin Miao could barely deal with three elders by herself, while Xue Sanren fought against five of them by herself, and even gained the upper hand.
Those elders were shocked. They knew Xuesan people, but how could they be so powerful? It's almost as good as the elders of the Thirteen Halls!
Because they did not want to alarm the head of the clan, let alone disturb the heaven-sacrifice ceremony, several elders gritted their teeth and persisted, hoping to defeat the Xuesan people in a wheel battle.
Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, the ground shook, and a huge black shadow came from down the mountain.
"what is that?"
"Oh my god, is this... the ancient demon god?!"
"How is it possible? Didn't the ancient demon god disappear with the fall of Lingyin Tianzun? Why does he appear here?"
"Everyone, he, he is coming towards us!"
…
The faces of several elders changed greatly. They could barely deal with the Xue San people, but how could they deal with this ancient demon?
Even if Master Xuanqing comes, I'm afraid there's nothing he can do against this terrifying demon without relying on the Zhuxian Sword!
"I can't stand it anymore, go and ask the master!"
…
Zhang Ze has been staring down the mountain. He knows that Xuesan and Mrs. Jin Miao have taken action, but it takes time for the message to be transmitted, so the message has not been received yet on the mountain.
Zhang Bufan has been taken to the center of the execution ground, and several Xuantian Sect disciples are locking him to the iron frame on the execution ground.
Seeing that Zhang Bufan was covered in injuries, especially his shoulder blades which were pierced by iron chains, and blood was almost flowing all over his body, Zhang Ze's eyes glowed coldly and his fists were clenched tightly!
"Start the execution!"
Seeing that the four executioners were about to activate the magic circle and burn Zhang Bufan to death, Zhang Ze knew that he could not wait any longer!
"Everyone, take action!" He informed Ju Shen, Liu Yueying and others in the team channel, and he immediately rushed towards the execution ground!
At this moment, a loud noise came from down the mountain!
Everyone in the audience was startled and looked down the mountain. Master Xuanqing and others on the viewing floor also looked surprised.
"Report! Master!"
A disciple ran up panting, knelt down under the viewing tower, and shouted loudly: "A group of demons are attacking the mountain, including ancient demon gods. The guard elder ordered the disciples to come up and ask for help!"
"What! Ancient Demon God?" Master Xuanqing stood up immediately with a look of shock on his face.
The other elders also looked at each other in confusion. Of course they knew what the ancient demon god was, but they didn't understand why this ancient demon god attacked Xuantian Sect.
"Don't panic! Wait for me to kill the demon!"
The Zhuxian Sword appeared out of thin air in the hands of Master Xuanqing, and a murderous aura suddenly swept out of him!
The next moment, a black stream of light flew rapidly from the viewing tower down the mountain.
