As soon as Xu Xian, Yue Fei, Zhang Lingfeng and others arrived at Donghua Gate, they saw Cheng Cheng, the top three winner in this year's imperial examination, Wang Fu, the second best candidate, and Li Yi, the top pick in this year's imperial examination, guarding the gate.
Seeing Xu Xian, Tanhua Li Yi cupped her hands and said:
"Senior Brother Xu, you are the most popular person outside the palace, and I am Li Yi, who has passed the regular palace examination and was personally selected by His Majesty.
We still need to discuss who has the higher literary talent between you and me. "
Xu Xian said:
"I'm just a doctor. As for the identity of the beauty outside the palace, it was just an accident. If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten it.
The purpose of my trip was just to go to Zichen Palace to see how Lin Chong's case was judged. "
Li Yi said:
“Your Majesty asked us to guard Donghua Gate just because we wanted to see Senior Brother Xu’s literary talents.
If Senior Brother Xu wants to enter the palace, he needs to pass our test first. "
If it were the city defenders, Yue Fei and Zhang Lingfeng would definitely be the first to take action.
It is better to let Xu Xian handle the scholar's affairs by himself.
Xu Xian said:
"Okay, I'm going to do it!"
After finishing speaking, Xu Xian summoned the Nameless Divine Sword and slapped Li Yi on the head.
Xu Xian's shot knocked Tanhua Li Yi unconscious.
Cheng Cheng was furious, pointed his halberd and cursed:
"Xu Xian, you are a scholar, but you are unwilling to use your literature to make friends. This sneak attack is not fair and aboveboard. It is simply an insult to politeness."
Xu Xian stood up and moved his sword like flying, knocking out the first prize winner Cheng Cheng and the second prize winner Wang Fu.
Yue Fei and Zhang Lingfeng were also surprised by Xu Xian's unscrupulous tactics. Under normal circumstances, the three of them should at least be given a chance to perform.
The defenders at Donghua Gate had already withdrawn. After knocking the three of them unconscious, they entered the palace without any hindrance.
Behind the city gate, what Xu Xian saw was a bit different from what Xu Xian had imagined. What he saw was a huge square.
There are nine gleaming golden dragons occupying the square!
Zhang Lingfeng said:
"It is said that the Imperial Palace is the place where the Nine Dragons gather, but the dragon veins are underground, invisible and intangible. All we can feel is the dragon's energy.
Therefore, these nine dragons are not real dragons, but the Nine Dragon Formation.
Eldest brother, second brother, leave these nine dragons to me. "
Xu Xian knew that Yue Fei and Zhang Lingfeng had obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi, and they were no longer what they used to be, and said:
"Okay, be careful."
Yue Fei looked at the gourd in Zhang Lingfeng's hand and asked:
"Just rely on the medicine in your gourd? Is that okay? That's not a real dragon, and no medicine will be effective against it."
Zhang Lingfeng gently stroked his long beard and said proudly:
"Pindao naturally has the skills to slay dragons. Second brother can just stand aside and plunder the formation."
Xu Xian circulated his spiritual power, opened his eyes, and looked forward. The nine giant dragons in the square disappeared, replaced by densely packed imperial guards, numbering in the tens of thousands.
At the end of the square is the Zichen Hall, where Chu Huizong, Lame Taoist, Cai Jing, Tong Guan and other civil and military officials are all present.
Under the control of the Royal Forest Army, a giant dragon formed by condensing dragon energy flew towards the three of them with its teeth and claws.
Zhang Lingfeng raised the gourd and threw it at the giant dragon. The gourd was so small that it was like a speck of dust in front of the giant dragon.
"It would be nice if it could be bigger!"
Zhang Lingfeng thought so as he looked at the gourd flying towards the giant dragon.
Gourd seemed to be able to read Zhang Lingfeng's thoughts, and actually rose up against the storm.
Boom!
The gourd and the dragon collided, causing a loud bang like thunder.
The giant dragon became slightly illusory, and the gourd produced a strange suction force, sucking the dragon energy escaping nearby into the gourd.
The commander of the Royal Forest Army saw that the gourd was so miraculous that it was actually absorbing the dragon's escaping dragon energy. He couldn't help but be furious. This time he took action no longer in his previous tentative state. He used all his strength to control the nine giant dragons and hit the gourd in the sky.
"If it can turn into nine gourds, that's okay!"
Zhang Lingfeng thought so, and the gourd in the sky actually split into nine parts.
Zhang Lingfeng finally sensed the vague connection between himself and Gourd.
With Zhang Lingfeng's thought, the nine gourds moved in different directions to face the nine giant dragons.
"Rumble! Rumble! Rumble..."
Nine rays of thunder sounded, and the nine giant dragons became a bit illusory, and a vortex-like suction force appeared around the gourd after drinking, sucking the dragon's energy into it at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Tens of thousands of royal guards controlled the Nine Dragon Formation, and the nine giant dragons that emerged from the formation launched a fierce attack on the nine gourds. Zhang Lingfeng had enough time to swim and took the opportunity to control the nine gourds to absorb the dragon's energy.
Seeing how powerful Gourd was, there was nothing the Kowloon Formation could do. When it was time to show off, Cai Jing came out and said:
"Your Majesty, I would like to invite you to fight!"
Chu Huizong ordered:
"It's just a friendly discussion, stop as soon as possible, don't hurt the harmony."
Of course it's not a friendly competition, but a life and death duel.
Xu Xian is too dangerous. If Xu Xian stays in Hangzhou and the two sides are thousands of miles apart, Chu Huizong can ignore it.
But now, Xu Xian came to the capital, and the two parties were too close, making Chu Huizong feel threatened. In addition, Bai Suzhen could actually make the imperial seal invalid.
Chu Huizong felt that Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen and others were too terrifying. In order not to lose everything, under the fanning of the lame Taoist, Chu Huizong used almost one-third of Chu's power to eradicate Xu Xian, this serious trouble!
The two sides really fought, and Chu Huizong really felt Xu Xian's terror.
Xu Xian, Yue Fei, and Zhang Lingfeng were inexplicably sworn sworn friends. Chu Huizong immediately asked the Xingchu League to investigate the two.
The results of the investigation show:
Yue Fei only had a few pounds of brute strength and was stubborn. Because he didn't know how to adapt, he was ostracized in Tangyin County and had no hope of promotion. He was forced to come to the capital and was reduced to making a living by performing on the streets.
As for Zhang Lingfeng, who claims to be the 31st generation Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain, he actually has no real ability and relies on tricking, deception and deception to get by.
In other words, both of them were mediocre, and Xu Xian became sworn sworn friends with them out of sheer boredom.
However, Zhang Lingfeng actually blocked the Nine Dragon Formation with a medicine gourd. Not only was the gourd unscathed by the Nine Dragon Formation's attack, it was also devouring the dragon energy in the formation.
Chu Huizong wanted to kill Xu Xian, but felt helpless. In order to leave a way out for himself, he said what he said.
Cai Jing has been in the court for decades and is good at observing faces. He followed the words of Chu Huizong and said:
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I know how to use discretion."
After finishing speaking, Cai Jing stood up with his pen, the wind and clouds surged, the sky and the earth changed color, and he wrote:
"Qiongyao is scattered and densely forested, with junipers and bamboos intersecting each other and there is a shadow at noon.
Enxu Chenfan always walks, but he doesn't know that he is five clouds deep. "
Cai Jing's calligraphy is strict but not formal, casual but regular. His official writing is like a gentleman with a sword, who is discussing in the temple;
But this time, Cai Jing integrated all his cultivation into the tip of his pen, rolled up the vast dragon energy, and attacked Xu Xian, Yue Fei, Zhang Lingfeng and the other three.
In terms of talent, apart from Zhuge Banshan, Cai Jing is the first person in the dynasty. It is said that he has already half-stepped into the semi-saint realm. In order to avoid being out of the control of the imperial seal and being jealous of Chu Huizong, Cai Jing never took the last step.
Seeing that Cai Jing had also taken action, Yue Fei flew up, waved the Liquan Divine Spear, and wrote in the air:
"I was so angry that I leaned against the railing and the rain stopped. I raised my eyes, looked up to the sky and roared, feeling strong and strong."
Yue Fei was not an awakened person. The words he wrote did not mobilize dragon energy, but mobilized a kind of righteousness between dragon energy and spiritual energy, which defused Cai Jing's offensive.
The lame Taoist flew out of the Zichen Palace, summoned the Demonic Pestle, and said with a smile:
"Xu Xian, hand over the sword and I will save you from death."
Xu Xian held the nameless divine sword and shouted:
"Niubi, come here and die."
On a white cloud in mid-air, Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing, and Qiao Xiaodie were hidden in it, ready to take action at any time.
Ripples appeared in the space, and a ray of red light stabbed Bai Suzhen silently.
That ray of red light traveled through time and space, and was originally going to kill Bai Suzhen directly with a sword.
Unfortunately, there was a problem with the space. When it was three meters away from Bai Suzhen, it could no longer hide in the four-dimensional space and fell into the three-dimensional space inexplicably.
Wherever the dragon's roar passed, a ray of golden light met the red light that appeared out of thin air.
The red light was slightly sharp, full of murderous intent, and filled with endless resentment.
The golden light contains the power of time and space and is full of peaceful energy.
The two connected and melted into nothingness, and the figure of a woman in red slowly emerged.
"My name is Snow Girl. Snow is red snow. It is dyed red by blood. Bai Suzhen, I need to dye that piece of snow red with your blood."
Dressed in red, with black hair like ink, cold and arrogant like ice, and murderous intent.
