Seeing that the golden tiles used to build the nest had suffered considerable damage, the magical bird transformed by Ding Chengli suddenly let out an angry cry, displaying a bit of the majesty of the Shinto that Qi Jingzhi seemed familiar with.
At the same time, the phantoms of many tile ghosts appeared on the golden tiles where they resided. Looking at them, they seemed dense and innumerable, as if thousands of ghosts and gods were guarding the Lord in the nest.
The power of the filthy sea of black water transformed by the golden lace clothes was greatly reduced. Instead of flooding the golden nest, black smoke billowed and the water level plummeted. Even Taoist Hu Jun's roar was obviously more painful. Not to mention taking the opportunity to get out of trouble, it seemed that everything was lost along with the black filthy water.
Qi Jingzhi silently raised his head to watch the battle, and was always paying attention to Ding Chengyuan's expression changes, words and deeds, trying to get a glimpse of the Anfeng Hou's true thoughts.
I still remember that Liu Muzhi once said to him that it is better to listen to his words than to watch his actions.
However, after all the previous experiences, Qi Jingzhi still couldn't see that when facing Ding Chengyuan, no matter what he said or did, it was best not to believe it easily.
Just like this moment, this person kept saying that he wanted Qi Jingzhi to be a witness, and he exterminated his concubine Ding Chengli in front of the boy and even everyone in Jiuzhen County. He even did not spare rare treasures such as the golden threaded clothes, while besieging them Taoist Master Refining Tiger, while driving the black water and filthy sea to attack the golden nest, even though the losses were huge, he never even frowned.
His title is An Feng Hou, but he can even give up the skin of the yellow clam and golden toad, which is regarded as a sign of good harvests. Naturally, the soldiers and civilians in the city will know that he understands justice and is loyal to his duties.
Qi Jingzhi also heard and saw it with his own eyes and ears, but mostly he didn't believe it.
Especially when Ding Chengyuan's arms trembled again and again, turning the string of money used to catch golden toads into a golden lacquer dagger, raising it like a flying sword, and shooting towards the golden nest bird, the young man's heart was full of excitement. This suspicion became more and more intense.
"Previously, when faced with the siege from Taoist Tiger Lord and Taoist Goupi, this Marquis Anfeng never showed any flying sword skills."
As Qi Jingzhi's thoughts flashed, he saw a ray of sword light flying across the sky, like flowing gold and flying fire. It circled the golden nest a few times and killed a large number of tile ghosts. Immediately, the sword roared loudly and soared into the sky. Then he stabbed the head of the sacred bird in the nest again.
The magical bird fluttered its wings without showing any signs of weakness, raised its head, relaxed its neck, and opened its long beak. It immediately held the sword light in its mouth and refused to let go no matter how hard it struggled.
"Sure enough! Sunset Yuyuan... Sunset Molten Gold Sword! If this kind of thing happened to others, it might just be a coincidence. Could it be the Ding brothers..."
Qi Jingzhi looked at the divine bird falling gracefully back into the golden nest, and saw that its long beak was shining with black gold. It was clearly closely related to the Great Black God and the Black Gold Tribulation Fire.
Looking at Ding Chengyuan again, this Anfenghou was careless and underestimated the enemy for a moment, so much so that he lost a flying sword magic weapon without paying attention, and became obviously impatient.
"A tile ghost is a living life! You are so crazy and murderous. If you really steal the throne and evolve into an evil god, I don't know how many people will suffer and die in vain!"
"The Ding family has been blessed by the country. Even if I risk my life today, I will definitely get rid of this scourge like you!"
I saw Ding Chengyuan, the Marquis of Anfeng, shouting angrily, holding the golden flag with one hand, raising the seven-star sword with the other, stepping on the golden toad, flying across the sea, and rushed straight towards the golden nest without any regard for the danger.
This bloody bravery and sincerity to be loyal to the king and protect the people is indeed something that the heaven and the earth can learn from, and the sun and the moon can embody.
For a time, the power of the black water and the filthy sea surged, and the turbid and romantic sky immediately overwhelmed the Golden Nest, which had lost most of the suppression of the tile ghosts.
The turbid and romantic sky surged, completely blocking a golden nest. Only the sound of phoenixes, roars of knives, and even the miserable screams and howls of Taoist Tiger Lord could be heard, but one could not see what was going on inside.
Seeing this, the three people on the ground looked at each other and looked at each other speechlessly.
At this moment, Qi Jingzhi suddenly heard an exclamation from Wei Bao, and a golden brilliance flew into the air in front of his eyes.
The three people hurriedly raised their heads and saw that the red gold sword broke away from Wei Bao's hand on its own. The blade circled briefly in the air and turned back into a red gold bead spinning around.
The next moment, this strange bead that suddenly changed was like a seed sprouting, relaxing from it.
The golden twigs and leaves on display turned into an unknown golden seedling in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, the leaves of the seedling trembled slightly in the wind, and golden dewdrops appeared in the void from nowhere. They quickly dripped on the leaves, seeped into them, and disappeared without a trace.
Visible to the naked eye, the golden seedling began to grow and expand at an extremely fast speed. After only a dozen breaths, it grew into a small tree half as tall as a man.
At the same time, the sound of flapping wings suddenly sounded in the ears of the three people, followed by the rapid and sharp sound of birdsong, which obviously contained anger.
Two strange birds appeared out of thin air. They were shaped like sparrows and covered with soft golden feathers. They were clearly the two golden birds carefully raised by An Fenghou in Bihan Pavilion.
As soon as they appeared, they stared at the golden tree. When they saw the golden dewdrops constantly dripping from the top of the tree crown, they immediately roared angrily and flew over without hesitation. One landed on the trunk and pecked fiercely, and the other Holding a branch and leaf with both claws, it will flap its wings and fly up.
Soon after, a snake and a tiger suddenly jumped out from the golden little tree. The snake's kiss was like an urn and the tiger's mouth was like a basin. They met the two golden birds and swallowed them up.
"this……"
At this moment, even Qi Jingzhi didn't know what to say. There was only one thought in his mind: "Is the sword-raising immortal behind the red gold sword... finally going to take action?"
Before he could think about it, as the two golden birds were devoured by the cloud snakes and fog tigers, the number of golden dewdrops that had previously been clear and dripping slowly increased suddenly, forming a golden rain cloud in the blink of an eye.
At first, the drizzle was like a silky drizzle, then after a while it gradually became dense, like a curtain, and finally the rain came down like a torrent.
With the nourishment of this torrential golden rain, the small golden tree immediately stood up from the ground, and unknowingly it was higher than the main hall of Baiyun Palace.
The golden crown stretches wildly and is extremely huge, covering the entire Baiyun Palace and even the wider area downwards, and actually wrapping the Black Water Sea and the golden phoenix nest upwards, slowly lifting it to the higher sky.
The rapidly growing tree trunks made a rumbling sound and crashed towards Qi Jingzhi and the others like a mountain.
The three young men were stunned, then turned around and ran away. They were almost knocked away by the tree trunks that came in like a wall. Behind them, there were terrifying sounds of broken trees and collapsed houses.
When the growth of the giant tree finally slowed down and even stopped, they slowed down and turned around to look up.
It only took a moment for the small golden tree to grow into a giant tree that truly reached the sky and the earth. In Qi Jing's eyes, it was actually much taller than the statue of the God of Autumn.
The sea of black water attached to the golden phoenix nest is still turbulent. At this time, it looks like the shadow cast by a large cluster of golden leaves on the branches. The huge golden nest is just a small bird on this giant tree. Just a nest.
The Ding brothers who were inside seemed unaware of the changes outside. They were still fighting fiercely, but Taoist Tiger Lord's wail was not as powerful as before.
As the small tree grew into a giant tree, the originally smooth and tender new bark on the tree also turned into an old, cracked and wrinkled bark that looked like giant golden scales.
Qi Jingzhi's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered the eight-treasure red gold spear of the donkey-headed prince in the dream on his pillow, and the fierce and vicious horned dragon with naked golden scales.
This boy, who was only sixteen years old, couldn't help but sigh softly when he saw things and thought about them: "It was really a big dream, things changed in a blink of an eye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone behind him suddenly chuckled: "Oh?"
Qi Jingzhi was horrified, and his body immediately turned sharply, but he felt a light touch on his back, and Jian Renshou had been taken away easily!
"Although the world is as short as a spring dream and human relationships are as thin as autumn clouds, at a young age, when your spirits are high, why do you express such decadent emotions?"
A young man wearing regular green robes and a green crown stood ten feet away, playing with the young man's long knife in his hand and brushing his fingers over the inscription on the knife.
"The blue sky is high, the yellow earth is thick, the moon is cold and the sun is warm, to fry the life..."
The young man recited the inscription "Jian Renshou" softly, then turned to look at Qi Jingzhi carefully, and said with a chuckle:
"I see, you came here with this sword on your back, do you want to seize the power of the sun and restore the emperor's lineage?"
When the young man was looking at him, Qi Jingzhi was also looking at him unceremoniously.
I saw that this man was as rich as jade and had a friendly aura, especially his eyes, which contained a lot of brilliance. At first glance, they seemed to be bright and clear, but when he looked again, he felt that there was a blue ocean hidden under his soft eyes, which was actually abyssal and unfathomable. .
Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but take a second look, and suddenly he met the other person's eyes. Suddenly, he felt that the light and shadow in front of his eyes were intertwined, as if he was actually seeing a blue sea and a blue abyss, and even his own breathing was pressed and became rapid.
He was horrified, and his eyes immediately cast a hazy undertone. At the same time, he struggled to look away, refusing to look directly into the other person's eyes.
Qi Jingzhi could clearly feel that there was no hostility in the young man's eyes just now, nor did he use the power of telepathy like Xin Changji, the evil-warming captain of Chaozhou, did. It was really just an indifferent glance.
He couldn't look at the facial features, so he looked at the other person's clothes.
I saw that the young man opposite had no ornaments on his body except for the crown on his head and the green robe on his body. He only wore a white feather fan shaped like a phoenix tail on his waist, which was shrouded in a soft white light.
When the young man saw that Qi Jingzhi was silent, he took it as his acquiescence and sighed quietly: "I didn't expect that after Master Xuandu and Ding Lingwei left, there would be descendants of Xianyu Mountain who had such unattainable delusions. In comparison, The Tianyi Sect is becoming more and more disgraceful!"
Naturally, Qi Jingzhi didn't know anything about the Imperial Tradition. Apart from hearing the names of the masters of Xianyu Mountain and Xuandu Temple, he had no idea who Ding Lingwei was: "It's just that this last name...could it be related to the Jiang surname Ding?"
The young man's eyes were slightly lowered, and he was unwilling to get entangled with this obviously unfathomable young man. He immediately stopped thinking about it and said seriously: "I came to Jiuzhen County, Liaozhou, just to be entrusted by Jin Dao Wei to bring the red gold The knife was sent back to the hole of a locust tree in Baiyun Palace, so that it... could be returned to its original owner."
As if he sensed Qi Jingzhi's lack of confidence, the young man smiled half-heartedly and said, "This is strange! If I remember correctly, the locust tree doesn't seem to be here, right?"
As he spoke, he moved his gaze to the side of the young man: "Now that I, the sufferer who has lost his treasured sword, come to visit me, Jiuzhen Wei should give me an explanation, right?"
Qi Jingzhi suddenly stretched out his arm, stopped Wei Bao who was about to step forward, and said in a deep voice to the young man: "Although the Wei family of Jiuzhen County took the treasure without telling anyone, and stole the treasure for decades, they also lifted up the whole family." I have been raising swords for you for decades, but not only have the clan members been filled with golden poison and their paths have been cut off, but they have also been harmed by evil spirits, with more than a hundred people dead and only a single seedling left!"
"Your Excellency has a high level of cultivation. He was able to fly in and out of the Qingming world decades ago. It is natural that he could not have noticed the prying eyes of a mortal, yet he allowed the red gold sword to be taken away... What were your thoughts at that time? I'm sorry. I don’t dare to speak nonsense, and the Jiu Zhen Wei family has no shame in asking for any explanation.”
"Wei Jin Dao was very regretful before he died. He just asked me to put the red gold knife back into the tree hole without any thought of passing it on to his descendants!"
Qi Jingzhi paused, with a look of determination in his eyes: "It was all my idea to send the red gold sword to the Wei clan. If you have any dissatisfaction, I will take over!"
Wei Bao was very anxious when he heard this. The young man who suddenly appeared in front of him was not only the original owner of the Red Gold Sword, but he also surpassed the two brothers An Fenghou with a flip of his hand. His cultivation level was unfathomable. He really wanted to take action** *, Qi Jingzhi is absolutely unreasonable.
He immediately shouted in a low voice: "The Jiu Zhen Wei family has enjoyed decades of wealth and honor since they obtained the red gold sword. Since we have owed a debt, there will always be a day to repay it. Wei Bao will die when he dies. How can we let En? Did you accept it on your behalf?"
After saying that, the Wei family's only seedling knelt on its knees, knocked its forehead heavily on the ground and stopped raising it. He said in a muffled voice: "Senior, if you are angry, just take Wei Bao's life. Please don't do it." To make others angry!"
Seeing this, the young man still had a smile on his face, and said leisurely: "Wei Gong, the Golden Sword of Jiuzhen County, Liaozhou, was given a sword by an immortal when he was young. He can control snakes and tigers, create clouds and mists, and build mountains and rivers. Within a few decades, Wearing a red gold sword, he travels across the six states of the East China Sea and is known as a heroic hero!"
"Since you are the descendant of this tycoon from the East China Sea, why don't you even understand that a man has gold at his knees?
Do you know, or is this land in the East China Sea so rich in gold that even gold is worthless? "
Wei Bao raised his head in shock and felt his body suddenly lightened. Qi Jingzhi and Geshu Dashi each grabbed an arm and pulled him up.
The young man laughed and pointed at the black water and the golden phoenix nest on the golden giant tree: "I noticed the abnormal movement of the golden energy in the East China Sea and came to clean up this mess. I have no intention of embarrassing you juniors. !」
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi immediately raised his hands in salute: "In that case, may I ask how you call me senior? Can you give me back my junior's sword?"
"Haha, just when I said I wouldn't pursue it, you young man immediately changed his tune and asked for a saber confidently. Do you think I'm easy to talk to and can be bullied?"
Although the young man said this, he also answered Qi Jingzhi's question seriously: "I am Jiang's surname Zheng, and my name is Immortal, also known as Anqi. I am currently practicing Taoism in Tiantai Mountain in the East China Sea, and I am the master of the Bihai Immortal Sect."
He paused and then added: "Zheng was a native of Qi before he escaped. As he grew older, he was successively called An Qisheng, Mr. Anqiu, and Beiji Zhenren. He was also granted the title of the Lord of Qi. His name is Langya Jun."
