In Zhao Qing's fleeting sense, the place where the huge stone palace is is covered with a large formation that contains natural power beyond human power and is integrated with the palace. The yin and yang aura is constantly transforming, and it automatically Interrupting her mental exploration.
Sure enough, is this the God of War’s fault? Zhao Qing thought for a long time and felt that he did not need to conduct more detailed exploration for the time being.
Even if the "God of War" represented by the Temple of War has any special plans in this world, considering that this is probably a layout that has lasted for thousands of years, as long as he acts like a normal master here and regards this vitality network as common sense , naturally you will not encounter related troubles.
It is better to first find the top-notch skills such as "The Secret of Immortality", "The Dao Heart Demon Technique", "Cihang Sword Code", "Huang Tian Dafa", "The Wisdom Sutra of the Root of All Dharmas", "Supreme Wisdom Sutra", "Dharma Technique", etc. Meet the top masters in the world before considering the matter of the War Temple.
Speaking of which, the Temple of War is opened every thirty years. The time when the Legend Eagle entered in "Shattered Void" should be 1270, which is 655 years different from the current year 615. Normally, you need to wait another 25 years before it can be opened. .
If you want to blast through the formation guarding the Temple of War and force your way in, you may only be able to succeed if you cultivate the Yin and Yang Dual Wuji and launch an attack with the energy of the Immortal Sect that shatters the void.
Speaking of which, during this period, Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian should have completed the final "Demon Immortal" in "The Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique", and I don't know if he left Po Kong. If he still stayed in the world, he would most likely be a peerless master who was even stronger than Xiaoyaozi back then and could bring him a lot of inspiration.
…
The city of Luoyang seemed to have just woken up, with pedestrians on the streets like crucian carp, cars and sedans flowing in an endless stream, and even business travelers from the Western Regions wearing Hu costumes. It was a lively scene like a prosperous metropolis.
Wandering through the streets and alleys, no matter where you go, the streets and alleys are arranged in neat squares, like a chessboard. The residential buildings are evenly distributed in the chess grid and in good order.
The streets are lined with trees, surrounded by green shade, with white clouds and blue skies in the sky, and the spring scenery is bright; thousands of pavilions stand on both sides, with bell towers and drum towers facing each other in the distance. Guesthouses, leather shops, bamboo shops, wool shops, grocery stores, paper shops, cotton shops, fresh fruit shops, etc. were established one after another, and they were very prosperous.
Looking at the crowds of people nearby, Zhao Qing thought about the practical issue that he had to consider every time he fell into a dream: where to get the necessary money.
Although through "Convincing Qi and Refining Form", I don't need to eat very much, but staying in a prosperous city like Luoyang City without a place to stay would be a bit shabby.
Fortunately, she soon determined her next target, which was the master of Laojun Temple with the fake identity of Luoyang's richest man "Rong Fengxiang", the "demon Tao" Pichen.
Laojun Temple is located a few miles north of Luoyang City, on the top of Cuiyun Peak in Mang Mountain. According to legend, it was originally the holy place where Laozi and Li Er practiced alchemy. However, it is now regarded as the original Taoism that originated from the art of tonic and is now the Six Ways of the Demon Sect. Among the true preachers, one of the branches is occupied by Laojun Guan.
The current master of Laojun Temple is named Bichen, who ranks sixth among the eight masters of the Demon Sect. Thirty years ago, he went rampant in the north and committed all kinds of evil. His martial arts skills are still superior to those of the "reverse" You Niaojuan, who is called a grandmaster. Currently, Zheng transformed into Rong Fengxiang, a big businessman in Luoyang, and cooperated with evil sects such as Yinkui Sect and Daming Zunjiao.
In Zhao Qing's view, he can be regarded as a descendant of Laozi's Taoist lineage. When he encounters evil people like Demon Dao Bichen who ruin the reputation of the Taoist school, he should naturally get rid of them, clean up the family, and accept the property left by Laojun Guan. .
Living in the troubled times of the late Sui Dynasty, although she was confident that no one would be able to leave her alone unless the Evil Emperor took action against Yutian, but if she met some people in danger, she might not be able to shelter them for a long time due to her lack of skills. .
In this case, it is better to establish a force with acceptable strength.
As for the Heshi Bi that has been rumored to have appeared in Luoyang recently, although it may not be true, the Jingnian Temple in the southern suburbs of Luoyang is so close. After solving the matter of Laojun Temple, it will not take much effort to enter the temple to investigate. .
…
The mansion of Rong Fengxiang, the richest man in Luoyang, was built on a hill in the northeast of the city. It occupies a very large area and is large in scale. At a glance, there are many houses dotted among the trees, and there are many things to see.
Since she and Laojun Guan were both located in the north of Luoyang City, and the distance was closer, Zhao Qing chose Rong Mansion as the first target of her trip, preparing to test the quality of Pichen and obtain the information from the other party. Information about various factions and the situation in the world.
Regarding the specific realms and divisions of combat power in the Tang Dynasty, after meeting a dozen martial arts masters who came to Luoyang for the Heshi Bi on the road, she explored their cultivation strength from a distance, and she already had her own opinion on this. speculation.
From Shuanglong's first practice of "The Art of Immortality", he has reached the state of "Refining the God and Returning to the Void". He is said to have reached the master level in his mental skills. However, because he started too late, he has no hope of reaching the state of Ning Daoqi in his life;
After absorbing the extraordinary power of the Heshi Bi, he reached the level of "refining the void and combining the Tao", but in terms of realm, he did not seem to have any advantage over the three great masters;
Combined with the signs of "getting into subtlety" and "forgetting the sword after gaining the sword", the master level in this world is roughly from the level of "refining the gods" to the first stage of "returning to emptiness", and the grand master level should be in the late stage of "returning to emptiness" There may be some differences between the level of cultivation and cultivation, because they are not following the Taoist path of spiritual cultivation.
In addition to Bi Xuan, who is at the bottom, Song Que, Ning Daoqi and others who have been promoted in the later period may be regarded as "Void Refining" masters of the non-Wuji path and have reached the level of "the realm of heaven and man".
However, due to the existence of formations with the Temple of War as the core and covering the entire world, the ability to mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth at the level of returning to the void and refining the void has been suppressed to a certain extent. They mainly rely on their own true energy and aura to fight against the enemy. A lower level cannot create a big gap.
As for the more detailed division of the realm, in Zhao Qing’s view, it can first be divided into two major stages: acquired and innate. Acquired is the “refining of qi”, while innate includes “refining qi to transform into spirit, refining spirit to return emptiness, and refining emptiness”. "Hedao" three major realms;
According to the achievements and reputation in the world, and when the skill and realm match, it can be divided into first-class, special, overlord, grandmaster, grandmaster, grand master and other titles. In addition to the heavenly and human realm that surpasses the grand master, the title It only refers to reaching a passing line. The former ones can include the latter ones:
Among them, when the practice of "Refining Qi and Transforming God" reaches the end and begins to enter the level of "Refining God", the innate true energy and spiritual power are completely integrated. In order to distinguish it from the former who practice innate Qigong to gradually open the spiritual orifice, it may be possible to It is called the "great innate" realm.
There are so many innate masters in "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty". In "The Rain and the Clouds", the poisonous hand Qian Luo, who was on the black list, did not even break through the innate realm at first. It is probably because the innateness of the latter's breakthrough was actually " The threshold of "Refining God".
Of course, the divisions at these levels seem complicated, and you still have to go through them before you know how to implement them.
】
In fact, for the vast majority of ordinary people in the world, it is a dream state to be able to develop the inner strength of the true energy and move from the outside level to the inside level.
…
The main residence of Rong Mansion is composed of three courtyards. The front hall is not only large in area, high in space, and gorgeously decorated, but its momentum is even comparable to the palaces in the palace, showing its luxury and wealth.
In the center, there are six golden pillars with white powder and dragons rising straight up to the roof. The ceiling is covered with patterns. The caisson in the center is a three-dimensional relief of two dragons competing for the pearl. Other furniture and hangings are all made of sandalwood and are very particular.
Sitting on the main seat in the hall is a well-maintained middle-aged man with a thin face and a serious expression. He rarely smiles, but can give people a calm and composed feeling. He is the master of Rong Mansion. Rong Fengxiang.
His eyes were sharp, his nose was high and straight, his mouth was slightly big, and his forehead was high, exuding the aura of a big boss. He looked towards a tall and strong man in his thirties who was sitting in the seat not far away, and spoke. road:
"Brother Dugu, you said that in recent days, you want to send people to the casino managed by someone Rong to collect intelligence. Please forgive me for not complying. However, if there are other matters, it is not beyond discussion."
As soon as he finished speaking, Rong Fengxiang clapped his hands, and a group of eighteen female prostitutes entered the hall to drink and serve the two people who were talking.
Dugu Ba has a long and narrow face, slender eyes, a nose like an eagle's beak, extremely thin lips, extremely broad shoulders, an extremely thin waist, long hair shawl, and a powerful and terrifying appearance, which leaves an unforgettable impression.
Since the Dugu Clan has not yet found out the details of Rong Fengxiang, they only know that the opponent's martial arts are probably at the level of a super master, and he has good relations with all the major forces in Luoyang City. Although he is usually irritable and irritable, he was rejected. He did not lose his temper, but glanced at the women who came to entertain them, showed excitement, and asked:
"Boss Rong, I heard that although your daughter Jiaojiao is only twenty-eight years old, she is already known as the 'Luoyang Twin Beauties' together with Wang Shichong's niece Dong Shuni. I wonder if I, Duguba, will be visiting today. Will I be lucky enough to meet her?"
Although Dugu Ba is second only to the masters of the Dugu Clan, You Chuhong and Dugu Feng, in terms of prestige in the world, he is notorious for being a womanizer, raping, killing, and plundering secretly, and is notorious.
This time, Dugu Ba took advantage of the opportunity of searching for He's Bi in Luoyang. Dugu Ba specifically made excessive demands to Rong Fengxiang. In fact, he was doing the next best thing. He wanted to find out every detail of Rong Jiaojiao so that he could find out the devil's clutches in the future. Be prepared.
However, before Rong Fengxiang could respond, a naturally beautiful and attractive girl appeared at the door of the hall. It was Rong Jiaojiao herself, who responded directly with her own actions.
I saw her looking around, her eyes shining brightly, seducing her soul. She seemed to be full of affection, but also seemed to be shy. His demeanor is even more delicate and smart, his manners are numerous, his elegance is graceful, and his ice-cold skin is a sight to behold.
Even with Dugu Ba's experience of reading women for nearly twenty years, he has only seen two or three people who can compare with her. They are almost on par with his niece Dugu Feng, which made Dugu Ba stunned for a moment.
But just as he started to watch, the sound of weapons falling to the ground suddenly came from outside the hall. Rong Fengxiang, who was already frowning, suddenly turned his head, focused his ears and eyes, and listened with all his concentration. At the same time, the tip of his nose was slightly raised. , trying to determine whether there was a lot of blood smell in the air.
The next moment, two male corpses with a blood spot on their eyebrows were thrown into the hall and hit the ground heavily. They remained motionless. The remaining expressions on their faces were the same as before, as if they had not discovered the enemy before they died.
Seeing the two men who had just died unexpectedly, Rong Fengxiang's expression suddenly changed. He immediately jumped up from the main seat, reached out and pulled Rong Jiaojiao, who had taken out a pair of daggers, and retreated to the thickest room in the hall. Block the edge of the wall.
But seeing that his clothes were bulging, his momentum was rising rapidly, and his energy was surging. His sharp eyes swept across the door of the hall and Dugu Ba, who was also getting up. His expression was solemn and a bit doubtful, but he couldn't help but feel suspicious. He felt that Rong Mansion was coming. The enemy may have some connection with the Dugu Clan.
The powerful forces in Luoyang, apart from Jing Nian Chanyuan, which has rarely been involved in world affairs in recent years, are undoubtedly the Dugu Clan, which ranks at the bottom of the four great clans. Not only is You Chuhong, who is also the top among the masters, sitting in charge, the clan leader Dugu Feng, "Dugu Shuangjie" Dugu Sheng and Dugu Ba are also quite famous in the world.
To be able to kill two top-notch warriors under Laojun Guan in an instant, even if there was a sneak attack, the enemy's martial arts must be so high that they must be at least an overlord-level figure running rampant, so that they would have no time to react.
Could it be that the Dugu clan actually discovered the true identity of their side, causing the clan leader Dugu Feng and even You Chuhong to personally take action?
Before he could continue thinking about it, Rong Fengxiang's heart was shocked, but he saw the pair of slender and vicious eyes on Dugu Ba's long and narrow face showing a look of astonishment, and the two arm guards on the cuffs slipped out slightly. , he was hit in the heart by an ice sword that suddenly flew over. He flew backwards and was firmly nailed to the wall eight or nine feet away, without any breath.
How dare you even kill people from the Dugu Clan? Rong Fengxiang was shocked. He immediately knew that the enemy's martial arts skills were far beyond his previous expectations, and he no longer had the chance to stay in place and wait for the hundreds of guards from Rong Mansion to come to rescue him.
Without thinking, he waved his sleeves and pushed the eighteen panic-looking maids in the hall out in front of him to delay time. At the same time, he jumped backwards and wanted to break through the solid wall. , fled outside, not caring about Rong Jiaojiao who was within the attack range of his sleeve wind.
However, something beyond his imagination happened.
Just when Rong Fengxiang used his skills in a hurry, he rushed several strands of energy that could shatter gold and stone towards various supporting structures in the wall. He not only wanted to open a hole, but also wanted to guide the entire wall towards possible random directions. The moment when the pursuing enemy collapses and falls;
A slender white index finger gently tapped on the wall a few feet away, pouring in the Gang Qi that emitted a light purple shimmer, and instantly connected every corner of the entire front hall, as if It was transformed into a solid chunk of fine steel, easily blocking this huge force that could break a top-notch expert's muscles and bones.
At the same time, a gentle aura as warm as spring breeze spread out and covered the entire hall. It silently resolved the wind blowing from Rong Fengxiang's sleeves, saved the maids in the hall in time, and gave birth to several children. An invisible cyclone locked Rong Jiaojiao's hands and feet in place, unable to move.
Because Zhao Qing did not specifically resolve the counter-shock force, when Rong Fengxiang hit the wall that looked like fine steel, it was equivalent to giving himself a heavy blow, and he immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood with a "swish" sound. He was bounced back to the center of the hall, his face was pale, and he was almost unsteady on his feet.
"It turns out to be Rong Fengxiang disguised as Ke Feng. Let me ask you, is Demon Dao Bichen currently at Laojun Temple?"
Looking at Rong Fengxiang, whose strength was far from worthy of the title of the Eight Great Masters of the Demon Sect, Zhao Qing thought slightly and immediately guessed that this was Bichen's younger brother, Taoist Kefeng. His martial arts skills were roughly similar to those of Dugu Ba whom she had killed easily. It's the level of a super master.
