Chapter 441 Another Battle at Yunxiao Pool (4)
Li Chengtao did not respond to Zhou Yuanyi's words. The planned attack just now was also decided in the blink of an eye. As for the final result, he still had to leave it to fate. Fortunately, he was quite lucky. In the end, with the "Golden Wind and Jade Dew" move, he successfully broke Elder Zhou's state of being able to fight without injury, at least injuring this strong man in the heroic realm.
Unfortunately, although the plan for this operation was good, the price was too tragic. Li Chengtao endured the attacks of four chalcedony bodhis, leaving four terrifying penetrating wounds on his body! If he hadn't used his inner strength to seal the blood vessels all over his body, he would have been bleeding profusely by now.
…
While Li Chengtao was fighting to the death with Zhou Yuanyi on the Yunxiao Pond, a figure was constantly exploring the bottom of the pond not far away. This person was none other than Li Chengqian, who had been blasted into Fuyunju by Elder Zhou before, smashing several stone pillars, and then fell into the Yunxiao Pond without knowing whether he was alive or dead.
In fact, after the two brothers entered the county government, they had a very clear division of labor for the next actions. Li Chengtao, who was more agile, was naturally responsible for restraining Zhou Yuanyi, while Li Chengqian, who fell into the lake and escaped the other party's attention, naturally took on the task of investigating.
If other people were to explore the bottom of the pool, they would most likely find nothing. After all, the entrance to the Bloodstained Ancient Ruins was obviously sealed by Luo Yunzong's powerful formation many years ago. If you don't have a certain knowledge of formations, it would be difficult to see the clues of this huge pool.
But coincidentally, Li Chengqian has been wandering around the world since his youth, and has experienced various secret realms of inheritance and historical sites. Therefore, the middle-aged man has a lot of experience in cracking the concealment formation outside the secret realm.
In fact, Li Chengqian didn't think about this at first. After all, the secret realms he came into contact with were all small or medium-sized secret realms. Close to the entrance of the secret realm, the rules of the world were not stable. But when he dived into the water, there was no difference at all. Stable anomaly.
His initial plan was that there was some secret at the bottom of the lake, or some treasure hidden there. But he swam several times under the water alone, but still gained nothing. Even if he penetrated his soul nearly a foot deep into the mud at the bottom of the water, he didn't notice anything unusual!
Boom boom!
There was a burst of explosions from the upper layer of the water. It was Zhou Yuanyi's Chalcedony Bodhi attack on Li Chengtao in the water, but he was blocked by the opponent for the first time. Then came the second and third times...
When it reached the fourth time, the vibration was the loudest, because that time it was an attack by four chalcedony bodhis like water drops, and in order to achieve his planned attack, Li Chengtao chose to bear them all.
It was also during this attack that four terrifying penetrating wounds brought out a large amount of Li Chengtao's blood. Although he quickly stopped it with his internal strength, the ones that first burst out were still integrated into Yunxiao Pond's blood. in water.
At this moment, Li Chengqian finally caught a subtle spatial fluctuation. This discovery made him stunned on the spot! He was certain that this was an extremely weak spatial fluctuation, but as a veteran who had been in the secret realm for many years, he was more than 70% sure that there really was a secret realm here, and it was at the entrance.
But in the next moment, his eyes scanned the entire underwater area. Although it was called Yunxiao Pond, its actual area was much larger than the Luojian Lake in the east of Qingyun City.
After two breaths, Li Chengqian slowly frowned and murmured to himself: "It shouldn't be! For any secret realm, the entrance must be different from the surroundings, but there is no abnormal behavior even a hundred feet away. There are indeed some..."
Just when he was meditating and analyzing, Li Chengtao had completed his plan. A dazzling golden sword light fell from the sky, and together with the black shadow he transformed into, directly blinded his opponent.
It was also during this fight that the blood flowing out of Zhou Yuanyi's abdomen quickly merged into Yunxiao Pond!
And this time the space fluctuation is much stronger than the previous one.
In an instant, a bold idea emerged in Li Chengqian's mind: "Could it be that this Yunxiao Pond is the entrance to the entire secret realm?" Once this idea came about, it wreaked havoc in his mind.
In order to verify his guess, Li Chengqian withdrew his inner strength to protect the injuries in his chest and abdomen. For a moment, the faint coolness from the surrounding pool water made it difficult for him to breathe, and all of a sudden the injuries that had just been discharged by Elder Zhou's palm were blown away. Hooked up.
He had suffered serious internal injuries when he was knocked away by the "Bodhisattva" palm. Now, as soon as his internal energy was removed to maintain his strength, blood immediately surged up.
What Li Chengqian was looking for was this mouthful of reverse blood. He saw this mouthful of reverse blood slowly spreading out in the water, and its color also changed from black and red at the beginning to light red, and finally disappeared.
And the moment it disappeared, the familiar space fluctuation appeared again!
When he thought of this, he didn't care about anything else and punched directly into the mud at the bottom of the water.
…
The expected explosion of the pool water did not happen, but the bottom of the water became even more turbid due to this blow. With Li Chengqian as the center, ripples and waves composed of a layer of silt continued to spread outward at the bottom of the lake.
He quickly withdrew the punch, as if he had fully understood the surrounding landforms and various situations with this move. Don't forget, Li Xintian's "Thick Earth Qi Control Technique" was taught by him, so the practicality of this punch is far simpler than it seems on the surface.
It was also unfortunate that although this punch allowed him to figure out the secret of Yunxiao Pond, it also exposed him to Zhou Yuanyi's attention.
"Haha, I really didn't expect you to be so resistant to being beaten!"
The water in Yunxiao Pond continued to avoid the surroundings, and the water level also continued to drop. Soon Li Chengqian's figure emerged from the water first.
Seeing the opponent's fist directly touching the mud at the bottom of the water, Elder Zhou's heart trembled. You must know that there are only a handful of people in the entire Luo Yun Kingdom who know the entrance to this secret realm. Even the court of Luo Yun Kingdom knows very little about this matter. Only some elders in the sect know about it, and then there are some children of the Ji family in Luoye City.
"You two are really very elegant! Do you like Yunxiao Pond so much? Are you vying to get in?" Zhou Yuanyi said jokingly, and raised his hand to Li Chengtao, who was seriously injured, and said sarcastically: "Tsk, tsk, fight!" Even if you withstand four attacks, you'll still want to chop me down."
Then he looked at Li Chengqian and continued: "You are more direct. Even if you take this slap, you will dive into the water to find out! How about it? Underwater...is it fun?"
Without giving the two a chance to talk, he directly raised his hand and waved four more chalcedony bodhis, heading straight for Li Chengtao.
He could tell that the captain of the mountain patrol team was more seriously injured at this time. Based on the principle of "kill one first, and then take care of it slowly", he directly targeted Li Chengtao.
…………Dividing line…………
Qingzhu, who was already at a disadvantage, dodged Ji Shenfu's diagonal thrust, but it still left a deep wound under his ribs.
"Captain Qingzhu, your performance today is not up to standard!" As the opponent, Ji Junzai said with a bit of a smile.
Qingzhu stared at the other party and muttered helplessly: "Boss Bai, if you don't take action, I will really be beaten to death!"
What responded to him was a figure that was as dark as the night, as silent as a real shadow.
boom!
A sound broke through the air!
It's just that it's not a hidden weapon or weapon, but Ji Shenfu, Lord Ji, who was still laughing at Qingzhu just now. Just now, the governor of Luoye County was hit with a sap.
The person who took action was none other than the oldest mountain patrol team in Yinren Town, Bai Yuan.
Since that day when he came back from the prefecture, he has continued to practice and returned to the peak level - the Windbreaker!
As warriors who practice physical training, they are often called "natural warriors", and their level classification is the same as that of ordinary warriors who practice internal strength techniques. It's just that there are no three or twelve levels, but are simply and roughly divided into "Broken Shadow", "Broken Wind", and "Broken Xu".
Its target strength level does not strictly correspond to the third level.
Shadow-breaking warriors correspond to warriors from the Mang realm to the Xia warrior realm. The Broken Wind Hero corresponds to the transition from the Knight Realm to the Heroic Realm. As for Venerable Poxu, he is from the peak of the Hero Realm to the Saint Realm.
To put it into detail, natural warriors have strength that is superior to most warriors of the same level, which even demon cultivators cannot match.
At this time, the White Ape has obviously broken through the imprisonment of many years and is the "Windbreaker"! As for his level of strength, judging from the way he just knocked Ji Shen flying with a stick, there should be very few people in the realm of knights who can compete with him.
…
Ji Shen helped wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. At this time, Qin Kai and Ji Rentu also rushed over. They were very surprised when they saw that their master was injured.
"Old people don't have martial ethics! Make a sneak attack!" He stared at the white ape and said bitterly. However, the old man, who was always taciturn, obviously did not talk to the other party.
Qin Kai and Ji Rentu looked at each other with horror in their eyes. Because they clearly remembered that this old man was in the center of Fuyun that day, but was chopped off by Ji Shen with a knife and fell into the Yunxiao Pond. Although he played a great role against a group of black-armored soldiers later, he was far from the same. It has reached a level that is comparable to that of a warrior in the Dacheng Realm.
"I was careless and didn't hide!" Ji Shenfu seemed to have read what the two of them were thinking, and added in a low voice: "The peak of the Dacheng Realm is still a little short of that. After all, I just entered the Wind Breaker not long ago, but my overall combat strength It has surpassed both of you and barely reached the standard of Dacheng Realm."
I have to say that the governor's vision is quite good.
…
"Why do you have to wait for me to come?" Bai Yuan asked in confusion.
Qingzhu thought for a moment and replied in a solemn voice: "I have never been able to get the situation in Yinren Town, so I need you to help me collect information."
"What information?" This sentence aroused the old man's interest.
"The real choice of the village's top management!" Qingzhu asked calmly.
Bai Yuan took a deep look at the other party. He knew exactly what the other party wanted to ask? Likewise, he knew the answer, but it was too early to tell.
"Repel the enemy first and then talk!" the old man replied calmly.
The exchange between the two of them through soul transmission sounded lengthy, but in reality it was just a few exchanges of glances. At this time, Ji Shenfu had also recovered from the sneak attack just now, and with Qin Kai and Ji Shenfu, the opponent still had a considerable advantage in the scene.
After experiencing this battle, Qingzhu was already at the end of the light crossbow, but Ji Shenfu still brought two famous knights with him, and they had not started a big battle before.
The Lord Commander-in-Chief clenched the Golden Yuan Sword in his hand, and the energy inside his body burned like a flame, mixed with golden flames, and his "Yuan Yuan" characteristic began to take effect.
Bang bang bang!
White Ape's pitch-black iron rod clashed hard with the Jin Yuan Sword again and again. If not for the sufficient amount of fine gold and three thousand irons that were added when forging this weapon, I am afraid that after this battle, the pitch-black iron rod would have been destroyed. The stick will become the next "Iron Bamboo Sword".
…
Just when Ji Shenfu was fighting with these people, the fifty or so cavalrymen had already rushed into the station at Liangchengang. Since the northern camp of Yinren was gradually established, Liangchengang has gradually lost its previous function of guarding and garrisoning. The urgent need to continue to expand the number of residents and the huge trade flow have changed the appearance of this place.
The black-armored cavalry did not waste any more time. Although the Lord Commander, General Qin, and General Rentu were not here, the clarion call for battle could not stop.
These fifty knights can be said to be too many or too few, but they can be said to be few. It's said that he has more, after all, with this equipment and strength, no horse thief can escape within the scope of Luoye County.
And it makes sense to say that he is young. In the eyes of the county residents of Liangchengang, they regarded each other as bandits or horse thieves. They all thought that these dozens of people would leave on their own after snapping up gold and silver.
But it is this kind of thinking that has caused a lot of losses to the people of Yinren Town, especially Liangchengang.
…
Yinren Township, Presbyterian Church.
"General, we have received news that Liangchengang was attacked! It was a group of black cavalry from Luoye City. There were about fifty cavalry, but..." The man who reported the report organized his words slightly and continued:
"The strange thing is. Not many townspeople evacuated from Liangchengang."
Lin Hengshan looked at the huge sand table in the hall, nodded slightly and said: "Inform the guard Tieyi and ask them to exterminate this group of people."
The man bowed and accepted the order and left.
At this time, Zhao Yunming beside him said: "Chengtao and Cheng Qian have already arrived at Yunxiao Pond. They should be fighting with Elder Zhou. Our informants only know this. If we need to know more, we must use the county Zaifu’s spy.”
Lin Hengshan nodded and said in a deep voice: "Let's put aside the matter of Luoye City for now. But there is news from the northern camp, Qingzhu, do you know?"
The intelligence of the pay list organization was currently in charge of Zhao Yunming, but the mountain patrol team also had its own sources of intelligence. When Qingzhu encountered Ji Shenfu's attack, he reported the situation there.
At this time, a small number of black knights had appeared in Liangchengang, which also showed in disguise that the camp further north had probably been lost. He still remembered that these days, the highest officer guarding the northern camp was none other than Qingzhu.
The middle-aged mountain patrol member is also the strategic decision-maker of the mountain patrol team. Every decision he makes will affect the development of the entire Yinren Town to a greater or lesser extent.
