"You have also seen that this is really not something that I intend to get involved with the Fox Demon King!"
Jiang Li heard the angry cry of the fox demon Hong Ling, pursed his lips, and said innocently: "Besides, this ambergris fruit is born without an owner. I got it from this northern mang god. If it were a fox If the Demon King comes looking for you, you can serve as a witness!"
"It's nonsense and strong words!"
Hong Ling pouted, not agreeing, but unable to refute.
After all, the eagle beast fell from the sky and fell in front of Jiang Li.
"The false god of Beimang dares to enter our territory of Great Zhou without permission!"
In the sky above the head, a mighty god-like voice suddenly sounded from the nine heavens, and the boundless aura of aura descended from the sky and enveloped the entire Luling. Slowly flew out.
"Oh no, it's the Imperial Sword of Qin Tian Jian!"
Hong Ling's expression suddenly changed, and she shouted in panic: "Jiang Li, let me go quickly, I'm going to inform my king, why did the abominable Beimang spirit come to die, but it has harmed my king!"
"Is this the Emperor's Heavenly Sword? The sword of guardianship, forged by the fusion of Confucian Temple's Haoran's literary energy and the fortune of the Royal Family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, can kill all gods, ghosts and immortals under the third level of thunder tribulation!"
Jiang Li was shocked in his heart. The red sky sword that appeared in the clouds and sky was so powerful that it had a kind of divine power that no mortal could look up to. It was majestic and righteous.
"Damn it, Beimang gods, I have nothing to do with you!"
"Why did Qin Tianjian react so much? Even if all the guards were summoned immediately, it would be impossible to activate the Emperor Tianjian so quickly!"
"Unless the Emperor Tian Sword is always activated, but this will cause great consumption every moment, what does Da Zhou want to do? Is he launching a war against Beimang?"
Deep in Luling, the demon kings and Beimang gods who were competing for the ambergris fruit were instantly locked by the Emperor Tianjian, and they were all shocked.
The Emperor's Heavenly Sword slashed down in an instant, the radiant heavenly power was like a curtain, and it flew down from the sky with the power of cutting off the heaven and earth. The huge sword light was several miles wide.
When the sword fell, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The entire Luling was cut off in the middle. Several bright rays of light rushed up from the shattered earth and rocks, and fled in all directions.
But the Heavenly Sword also followed, and the huge sword light swept across the air in pursuit. Several rays of light let out shrill screams. Although magic weapons were sacrificed, most of them ended up being torn apart.
Occasionally, those who managed to escape with their lives despite using all their magical weapons were severely injured and fled out of the Luling area in panic, diving headlong into the Beimang land.
"My king!"
Hongling screamed miserably. She saw Fox King Yunxi being swept away by the sword curtain and falling into the territory of Beimang, not knowing whether to live or die.
"Being struck by the Emperor's Sky Sword, even if the Fox King is a three-time Thunder Tribulation Ghost Immortal, he will hardly be able to survive!" Jiang Li shook his head. Even if he was as powerful as the Demon King, it would be difficult for him to face the power of the dynasty.
"what's going on!"
"Master Jiang Li, why do you appear here? It's strange, aren't we deep in Luling?"
"That...that is the Emperor's Heavenly Sword, the guarding sword of Qintianjian!"
Xu Tingpei and others left the center of Luling. The influence of the aroma of ambergris gradually dissipated. The power of the Emperor's Heavenly Sword spread to all directions, impacting the souls. At this moment, they all slowly woke up and gradually regained consciousness. However, their memories after the influence of ambergris fruit disappeared. Blurred.
Jiang Li could only briefly recount what he had just experienced. After hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Ling, who had changed beyond recognition, and the Emperor Tianjian slowly retracted in the sky, and they were all frightened.
If Jiang Li hadn't brought them out together, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Roar"
Deep in Luling, which was cut in half, bursts of roars of wild beasts also sounded. Although countless beasts were affected by the battle between the demon king and the gods, and were directly killed by the Emperor Tianjian, there were still many beasts that survived. Nan, regaining consciousness at this moment, was frightened and fled in all directions.
"Sir, there may be deer beasts that can survive under the Emperor Tian Sword, please give us some time!"
Although Yingshan Xiong and others were trapped by the ambergris fruit for more than ten days, Tuman was naturally strong, and the scent of ambergris fruit also contained strong medicinal properties, so they did not feel tired and sleepy at all. They ate some dragon fish meat taken out by Jiang Li. Do it, and you will regain your strength after a while.
The demon king and Beimang gods dispersed in Luling. There was nothing that could threaten these barbarian warriors. Jiang Li thought about it and agreed to the request of the barbarian warriors.
Xu Tingpei also wants to go to Luling again to search for the sergeants at Jinshankou Pass who may be alive.
The group entered Luling again, spent another day and night, and finally found more than a hundred Dazhou sergeants who had survived by chance.
Yingshan Xiong and others also captured more than a hundred exotic deer beasts that were much taller than ordinary war horses.
These deer beasts, both male and female, are extremely tall, with thick antlers on their heads. When angry, they can directly break a tree as thick as a person. It is difficult for giant warriors to suppress them.
"General Jiang Li, if you hadn't come to my rescue this time, Xu and I would most likely have fallen on this Luling. I won't thank you for your kindness. From now on, Xu will obey my orders no matter what!"
Xu Tingpei thanked him respectfully and returned to Jinshankou Pass with more than a hundred soldiers who had survived the disaster to arrange the follow-up matters for the construction of Luling Post.
Jiang Li also led seven barbarian warriors, including the fox demon Hongling and Yingshan Xiong, toward Jimingzhan City.
The deer beasts were captured by Yingshan Xiong and others, but their wild nature remained. The barbarian warriors did not know how to tame beasts, so they could only look at the tall and powerful deer beasts and sigh in wonder.
It wasn't until Jiang Li used Taoist magic to suppress the deer beasts with the power of his soul, and continued to induce them, that he finally made these alien deer beasts that were not afraid of tigers and wolves temporarily obey.
Everyone rode deer beasts and traveled through the stars and nights, and finally returned to the vicinity of Barrier City on the second day.
Yingshan Xiong and others drove the deer beasts back to Ping'an City and handed them over to the yang clan to help tame them in preparation for the upcoming Northern Expedition.
Jiang Li took the fox demon back to Jimingzhan City alone.
"Wow, this demon knows that you will definitely survive any disaster!"
Before Jiang Li entered the city, the big black dog jumped down from the wall of the barrier city and ran towards Jiang Li excitedly, its tail almost wagging to the sky.
"Mr. Shangguan and I came out of the cave and felt two extremely powerful eyes staring at us. They were definitely above the holy level. We could only leave temporarily and hide far away. We will wait for those two auras to disappear before looking for you, but I found that you have left the vicinity of the passage!"
The big black dog sighed and said with lingering fear: "I have achieved great success in cultivation. I have been wandering out of the mountains for decades, and I haven't seen as many martial saints or half-saints as I have seen in the past few days. I was originally very proud and felt that I was a big monster." , but ended up being chased away and running for their lives!"
"Dahei, my king is in danger!"
When the fox demon Hongling saw the black dog, she couldn't help but burst into tears again, "Please beg Jiang Li and let him let me go. Let's go find my king together. As long as I can save my king, I will definitely do it for you." Please, let her not ruin your moral conduct, woo woo woo!”
"Good guy, the Demon King actually has the idea of destroying me!"
Hearing this, the big black dog's hair stood on end and said angrily: "It's not that serious. I am loyal to Wanhu Mountain. If I fell into Jiang Li's hands, wasn't it because I was injured in the line of duty? The Fox King has no need of Pan Emperor's remains now. What's wrong with Jiang Li and I? There's a piece of bone that's indispensable, it really hurts the dog's heart!"
"What are you talking about now? My king's life or death is uncertain. Aren't you worried?" Hong Ling cried in grievance.
"Wow, why can't you say that this demon is working in Wanhu Mountain, not sold to Wanhu Mountain!"
The black dog curled his lips, was silent for a while, and then said to Jiang Li: "That's all, the Fox King has always been pretty good to me. I can't just ignore him. I'd better go to Beimang to look for him!"
"Are you going to Beimang?"
Jiang Li was a little surprised. This big black dog ran faster than anyone else when in danger. He didn't expect that he would take the initiative to help the injured Fox Demon King.
"Being a monster must have a beginning and an end. No matter what the outcome is, we will never owe each other anything from now on!"
The big black dog said: "Even if we fight in the future, we can still maintain our aura and be confident!"
"Then go and be safe!"
Jiang Li nodded, took out an object from the Sumeru Ring, handed it to the big black dog and said, "This object was found in the cave and stone temple. Its power is terrifying. Once it is used under the holy level, almost no one can resist it." , if you encounter a life or death crisis and want to die together with the other party, you can activate it!"
"Is this how you survive?"
The big black dog glanced at the black projectile in Jiang Li's hand and couldn't help but shudder.
Although he has not yet seen the true power of this projectile, the mere smell of destruction made the big black dog feel extremely uneasy and dangerous, and he couldn't wait to swallow it in one gulp.
Taking this thing out will definitely scare some timid guys.
"Dahei, take me with you, I'll go with you!" the fox demon shouted quickly.
"Jiang Li, let her go with me. She is loyal to the Fox Demon King, which can be considered a help!" The big black dog thought for a while and said.
"Yes, but this little fox is cunning and ruthless, so you have to guard against it. If you put a mark in her soul, if she still dares to have some tricks, just kill her!"
Jiang Li said, and then secretly sent an order to the big black dog.
"Don't worry, I have exactly what I mean!"
The big black dog nodded, with a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes. After placing a mark on the fox demon's soul, he said goodbye to Jiang Li, stepped on a blood-patterned flying knife, and left the barrier city with the fox demon Hongling.
"Dahei, give me back my red rope. Your realm has not been restored yet. I can run faster than you with my magic weapon!"
"Wow, go away, little vixen, I won't be fooled by you!"
…
"Jiang Li, you are finally back!"
When Jiang Li walked into the barrier city, Zhao Tiehe came up to him with Ji Wuliang, Kou Yunxian, Zhongli Dian and other generals from thousands of households.
Since Jiang left Kaizhan City and went to Tufal half a month ago, the generals have been concerned about Jiang Li's safety and always pay attention to the news from the Liangzhou General Camp.
"All of the Ouchi experts sent by Emperor Jing lost news soon after entering the Tufal Desert?"
Jiang Li was very surprised after hearing the report from Zhao Tiehe and others.
When he and Fei Qianren left Tambu City, they had seen the appearance of ten masters sent by Emperor Jing. In the following days, they had also seen them mingling with some caravans from a distance and appearing nearby from time to time.
Until a swarm of blood crickets appeared and dragged him, Fei Qianren and others underground.
Originally, Jiang Li thought that these masters would return to the Liangzhou camp to report the situation after losing their traces, but he did not want to hear from these masters at the same time after the blood cricket swarm appeared.
"The Fourth Highness did not receive any message from the ten masters for two days in a row, so he immediately sent people to investigate the Gobi desert. However, it seems that there has just been a storm there, many traces were destroyed, and all clues were interrupted!"
Zhao Tiehe scratched his head, "If Shangguan girl and the big black dog hadn't come back and said you should be fine, we would have disobeyed military orders and entered the wilderness to look for you!"
"The masters sent by Emperor Jing are of advanced realm and extraordinary strength. They can control or kill them all at the same time...who could they be?"
Jiang Li frowned, not having any clue. He noted the matter in his mind and asked, "How is the training of the sergeants in the barrier city going these days since I've been gone?"
"Mr. Tu is indeed capable. Although his methods are a bit rough, the results are still amazing!"
Zhao Tiehe laughed and said: "Although the strength of the sergeants has not improved too obviously, after all, the time is too short, their savage spirit and cohesion are no worse than those of the old soldiers. They are as fierce as wild wolves. They will definitely be released in Beimang." A strong army!"
As he spoke, he came closer and whispered: "Qi Meridian has been quietly promoted in the Liangzhou General Camp. Shengjing City has sent a group of Qi Meridian cultivators to select those suitable for practicing Qi Meridian among the hundreds of thousands of troops in Liangzhou. There are more than 3,000 qualified sergeants and low-key professors in our barrier city.
"Originally, Liangzhou Camp sent us a Qi Cultivator to teach more than 3,000 soldiers the Qi Pulse Training method as a Qi Meridian Instructor. However, Old Man Tu kicked him out with great disgust. He hired a Qi Cultivator from outside. Mr. Mo, guide the sergeants in their practice!"
"Mo Yunliang is here!"
When Jiang Li heard this, he naturally knew who Old Man Tu had invited.
However, Mo Yunliang was able to give up practicing in seclusion and appear in Jimingzhan City, which was probably because he had broken through the Qi Transformation Realm.
This is a happy event.
Jiang Li's background was too shallow. Although his martial arts, Qi veins, and Taoist realms improved rapidly, he didn't have many available subordinates around him, let alone masters.
Mo Yunliang has been promoted to the Qi Transformation Realm, and his strength is equivalent to that of a martial artist in the Eighth Level of Martial Vein and Yiwu Realm, and he can be considered a true master.
"By the way, there's one more thing!"
Zhao Tiehe suddenly said: "Early this morning, a strange team came from outside the barrier city. They were said to be people from the Mo family in Tengyang Province. They came to the barrier city to survey and survey and make defensive equipment on the orders of Emperor Jing. They also had the seal of His Highness the Fourth Highness. Let's verify it. It was correct, so they were let in."
"I know about this. The Mo family has indeed followed the orders of Emperor Jing. Their family inherits the ancient Mo sect and is very good at equipment and fortification. They are even much better than the craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry!" Jiang Li nodded.
"But they seem to be very familiar with Miss Shangguan. Not long after entering the barrier city, an old man and a young man came to visit!"
Zhao Tiehe thought for a while and added: "When they entered the barrier city, they didn't seem to know that Miss Shangguan was here. Later, they were surprised to see Miss Shangguan appear at the top of the barrier city!"
"Very surprised?"
When Jiang Li heard this, his eyes flashed.
…
"Didn't Mr. Shangguan go with Qilinzi to Tufal to carry out the mission of the Holy Lord and His Royal Highnesses? Why did he appear here alone? Where did General Jiang Li go?"
In the military office hall, Mo Chaozong, the elder of the Mo family, put down the tea cup in his hand and smiled, seeming to ask casually: "But the task has been completed? When Teng Xiao went to the Liangzhou General Camp to report the survey progress to His Highness the Fourth Highness, it seemed that he had not Heard the news about General Jiang Li’s return!”
"Thank you Fifth Elder for your concern. Due to some things, Jiang Li and I were forced to separate in the wilderness. As for this mission, I apologize for Qingyan's inconvenience in detailing it!" Shangguan Qingyan responded warmly.
"Haha, don't think too much, Mr. Shangguan, I'm just asking casually!"
Mo Chaozong laughed and said: "It's just that our Mo family's mission in the Liangzhou general camp has been completed for the most part. Mr. Shangguan is my Mo family's guest minister. Although he was transferred away by General Jiang Li and His Highness the Fourth Highness, once the mission is completed, You still have to return to Teng Yang Province with us!"
"Fifth Elder, don't worry, Qingyan has not forgotten her identity!"
Shangguan Qingyan nodded calmly, with no emotion on her face.
"That's good!"
Mo Chaozong smiled, picked up the tea cup and began to sip leisurely.
"Mr. Shangguan, you seem to be reluctant to leave!"
Beside Mo Chaozong, a tall and tall young man had been staring at Shangguan Qingyan ever since he entered the military office hall.
After looking at the latter's beautiful profile and cold posture, Mo Tengxiao finally did not suppress the emotions surging in his heart. He sneered and said, "Mr. Shangguan has gone through ups and downs with Jiang Li. I'm afraid he is too happy to miss his childhood. No wonder." He is the son of Marquis Zhenwu, the most powerful martial artist in the world, and he is also the famous Qilinzi in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Regardless of his status, he can overshadow my little Mo family!"
"What do you mean, Mr. Tengxiao?" Shangguan Qingyan raised her eyebrows slightly, and there was evil intent in her phoenix eyes.
"Don't you know what I mean?"
Mo Tengxiao's chest rose and fell violently, and he stood up slapping the table: "How dare you say that you and that Jiang Li are innocent!"
"you……"
Shangguan Qingyan's complexion changed slightly, her jade hands tightly grasped the armrest of the wooden chair, but she hesitated to speak.
"Hahaha, it's true!"
When Mo Tengxiao saw this, he still didn't understand. He hated and laughed at the same time, his eyes almost bursting with fire.
"I heard that the guest ministers recruited by the aristocratic families are all based on their needs. The aristocratic family provides the resources and techniques for practice. The guest ministers work hard to protect the aristocratic family and defeat their opponents. When did the aristocratic family have to be responsible for even private matters such as the love between children?"
A faint chuckle sounded from outside the military office, and Jiang Li walked in with Zhao Tiehe and other generals from thousands of households in the barrier city.
"Mo Chao Zong has met the general!"
The fifth elder of the Mo family, Mo Chaozong, slowly stood up and saluted, and said with a smile: "General, don't blame me. Young people are just beginning to have romantic feelings, and it is inevitable to be a little impulsive. Teng Xiao made some rude remarks, so why don't you apologize to the general!"
Mo Chaozong turned around and shouted: "You can ask about the general's private matters?"
"Fifth Elder, Teng Xiao realizes his mistake!"
Mo Tengxiao's eyes flashed and he bowed to Mo Chaozong without looking at Jiang Li.
"Senior Mo came to our barrier city this time to take Mr. Shangguan back to the Mo family?" Jiang Li didn't care. He sat back down and asked gently.
"There's no rush, it's just that Mr. Shangguan, as a guest of the Mo family, will eventually go back!"
Mo Chaozong also smiled, "If the general appreciates Mr. Shangguan's ability and character, he can also ask His Highness the Fourth Highness or Emperor Jing to issue a decree to summon Mr. Shangguan into the military camp. Naturally, we in the Mo family will not dare to disobey!"
"Whether Mr. Shangguan goes or stays depends entirely on her own wishes. However, this mission to Tufal is somewhat special. Before I inform His Highness the Fourth Highness, Mr. Shangguan may have to stay in the Liangzhou General Camp for some time. !" Jiang Li said.
"This is natural, everything is the business of His Majesty and His Royal Highnesses!"
Mo Tengxiao nodded. He took out an iron box from his sleeve and said to Shangguan Qingyan: "This Qingyunsuo is from Yingxing. This kid knew that you were going deep into Tufal and Beimang, so he was very worried, so he asked someone to send it to you. Yes, please accept it and use it as a self-defense weapon!"
"Yingxing!"
Shangguan Qingyan was slightly startled, her expression slightly solemn, she stood up, took the iron box, sat back in her seat and remained silent.
"General Jiang Li, Mo takes his leave. See you soon!"
Mo Chaozong cupped his hands and slowly walked out of the military office with Mo Tengxiao, who was blushing and bowing his head silently, and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Jiang Li, the Mo family has such a big air. My adoptive father said that these aristocratic families are a deep hidden danger for our great Zhou Dynasty. If the great Zhou Dynasty wants to truly rule the Nine Provinces and recreate the great achievements of the medieval emperors, these thousand-year-old aristocratic families must be completely surrendered. !" Zhao Tiehe said.
"Captain Huangfu is right, these aristocratic families are indeed bolder!"
Jiang Li looked in the direction where Mo Chaozong disappeared and smiled coldly.
…
"The Nine-turn Great Return Pill of Miduo Temple has a miraculous effect on the foundation of a warrior's physical body, but I have already used one. Even if I swallow it again, it won't have much effect!"
It was night, on top of the barrier city, Jiang Li sat cross-legged, looked at the Nine-turn Great Return Pill wrapped in beeswax in his hand, and sighed with regret.
It's not because the Great Return Pill has a weak effect on his physical body, but because it is hidden in the wax pill together with the Nine Revolutions Great Return Pill and cannot be taken out now.
Once the wax pill is broken, the effectiveness of the Nine Turns of Great Return Pill will continue to evaporate and be consumed, and the medicinal properties will be greatly reduced. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a waste of natural resources.
Although there are many treasures in Jiang Li's Sumeru Ring, such as precious medicines, spiritual fruits, flesh and blood spiritual body fragments, golden juice and jade liquid, mysterious jade water, etc., the Nine Turns of Great Returning Pill is still precious and is the incomparable foundation of martial arts. Precious medicine.
"Forget it, let's put it away first. When we meet someone who is qualified to take this medicine in the future, we can take a look at the supreme inheritance of Amitabha Temple contained in the wax pill!"
Jiang Li put away the wax pills and took out a jade box from the Sumeru Ring.
Gently opening the jade box, a stream of pure blood medicinal fragrance rushed out, like a billowing smoke, straight into the sky.
"What a powerful medicinal property!"
Jiang Li was startled, and quickly used his true energy to condense into a shield to gather back the essence and majestic medicinal energy. Otherwise, once it expanded, it might alarm the ghosts, immortals and gods who occasionally passed by here.
He looked down and saw a crystal-clear blood-colored ginseng lying in the jade box. Each small root contained the essence of blood that moved the warriors all over the world.
"I have experienced successive battles in the cave, and my martial arts spiritual realm has improved significantly. The martial arts artistic conception has already begun to take shape. It's time to attack the spiritual martial realm!"
Jiang Li took a deep breath, stretched out his hand to break off the roots of the blood parameter, and swallowed it directly.
The trip to Tufalong and Luling made him deeply aware of the insignificance of his own strength, and inspired him to become extremely determined to attack the Holy Realm.
If you don’t enter the holy level, you will eventually become an ant!
The plot of this chapter is excessive. The Northern Expedition begins in the next chapter. Jiang Li’s highlight moment has arrived.
(End of chapter)
