Emperor Jianwu, who was flying on the furnace, traveled unimpeded.
Although there were many magic circles arranged in the palace and the capital, Emperor Jianwu carried something that could indicate his identity.
None of the magic circles along the way had any effect on him. Instead, they hindered the imperial guards who wanted to pursue him.
Just when Emperor Jianwu was about to fly out of the city, several city wall defenders saw a ball of fire flying from the city and didn't know what was going on.
After shouting to no avail, they activated the Fire Crow Crossbow bed arranged on the wall.
Giant arrows roared out one after another, and as the runes on the arrows moved around, they turned into blazing fire crows and swarmed towards Emperor Jianwu.
Unfortunately, these city wall defenders failed to create history and leave their mark in history.
The fire crow they shot was about to hit Emperor Jianwu. Suddenly, a large flame burst out from the alchemy furnace that Emperor Jianwu was stepping on.
The pill fire was like a red dragon, opening its bloody mouth and swallowing all the flying fire crows.
Immediately afterwards, the fire dragon rushed straight towards the city wall.
The few city wall defenders who almost became heroes of the Great Xia Dynasty had no time to dodge and were burned to ashes in an instant.
On the city wall, alarm bells suddenly sounded.
Emperor Jianwu revealed his identity at this time.
The guard who was about to give the order to attack suddenly shivered in fear when he heard that the fire flying out of the city was not a monster, but His Majesty the Emperor.
He hurriedly led his soldiers and knelt down on the tower, kowtowing to the alchemy furnace that was spitting fire and smoking from his buttocks.
He was afraid that Emperor Jianwu would set off a fire, burn them all to ashes, and then send their wives and children into the army.
Fortunately, at this time, Emperor Jianwu was all focused on the royal tomb and had no time to clean up the city wall defenders. He directly drove the alchemy furnace and flew out from the city wall.
However, the guard who escaped the disaster did not feel at ease.
He knew Emperor Jianwu's temperament.
If we don't deal with them now, there must be something important to deal with urgently.
When the matter is settled and their hands are freed, none of them will be able to survive.
"Staying here will only lead to death. It's better to remain anonymous and go to the frontier army to defect to my former colleagues. The worst is to find a fallen bandit on the mountain top, but it is worse than waiting for the Dog Emperor to come back and kill my whole family!"
With the thought of running away, the defenders suddenly felt that the world was vast.
Without hesitation, he immediately summoned his men and told them his plan. He asked his men to go home quickly, collect their belongings, call their families, and follow him out of the city overnight to escape.
Not to mention the hasty escape plan of the city wall defenders, it is only said that after Emperor Jianwu flew out of the capital on the Dan Furnace, he went straight to the royal tomb.
But just dozens of miles after he left the city, a light suddenly bloomed under the dark red night sky, covering Emperor Jianwu in it.
These lights turned into swastika characters one by one, and then formed a large net, which trapped Emperor Jianwu and prevented him from passing through this place quickly.
At the same time, several other magic circles lurking here also started to activate!
A bloody frontier poem, amidst some crazy chanting, gushes out from the Confucianism formation like a spring.
These verses turned into heavy snow and yellow sand all over the sky, sweeping towards Emperor Jianwu.
Countless words and blood, mixed in the wind, snow and yellow sand, turned into powerful soldiers, holding swords or drawing bows, killing Emperor Jianwu with a fierce force.
In addition to the Buddhist swastika, the Confucian poetry formation, the military killing formation, and the Taoist Five Thunder Formation were all activated at this moment.
These are exactly the traps laid by the civil and military officials and monks hiding in Wuzhao Mountain.
When they learned that Emperor Jianwu was rushing to the royal mausoleum, they immediately set up a trap array on the road they must pass.
Although the magic circle they set up was a bit hasty, it was quite powerful.
Moreover, using formations to delay Emperor Jianwu would not easily reveal his identity.
After all, in Emperor Jianwu's mind, these people were either dead or kidnapped by Lian Jia or Wang Jinzhong, and they should never appear here.
If his identity was revealed, Emperor Jianwu, who was suspicious by nature, would surely be able to deduce the whole story and respond in advance.
Therefore, when officials and monks set up the magic circle, they deliberately relied on the Black Lotus Sect.
Although they have not studied the techniques of the Black Lotus Sect, their previous copying and proofreading of the Immortal Book of Chaos has left them with a lot of chaos aura.
Now this chaotic atmosphere has not been completely eliminated, and it is just used to confuse Emperor Jianwu's judgment.
Although it is a bit excessive to catch a sheep like the Black Lotus to death, but who makes this sheep the most suitable and the best?
Emperor Jianwu, who fell into the trap, immediately noticed the chaotic atmosphere filled in several magic circles.
As expected, he was thinking about the Black Lotus Sect.
The Black Lotus Sect has developed wildly in the past few years, and many people from Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism have been bewitched and become its followers.
Therefore, Emperor Jianwu did not find it strange at all that people from the Black Lotus Sect would set up a Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist array.
Instead, he suspected that this was done deliberately by the people of the Black Lotus, who wanted to conceal their identity.
It's a pity that the chaotic aura of these people cannot be concealed. It's okay to deceive others, but it is impossible to deceive him.
"Are they from the Black Lotus Sect? Why did they set up a trap here? Did they do what happened at the Royal Tomb? Do they want to use this method to retaliate against me?"
Emperor Jianwu, who was in the formation, had no panic on his face, only anger.
In his opinion, the Black Lotus Sect was founded by him, and he himself is also the Buddhist master of the Black Lotus Sect. Therefore, even if he wants to destroy the Black Lotus Sect, the followers of the Black Lotus Sect should not be resentful, but should Be grateful and die obediently.
"This is a bunch of wolf-hearted people who want to repay kindness with vengeance. Let me die!"
Emperor Jianwu was angry and shouted filial piety.
The alchemy furnace that he stepped on seemed to feel his anger. The flames from the bottom of the furnace tilted out, bringing up a sea of fire and facing the overwhelming offensive of thunder, lightning, swords, yellow sand and so on.
Just when Emperor Jianwu was about to break out of the formation, two more figures suddenly came out.
One of them is wearing golden armor and looks like a Buddhist Dharma Protector. However, he is full of blood and murderous intent. At first glance, he looks like a ruthless character who kills without any calculation.
The other person's entire body was covered in a black robe.
Even Emperor Jianwu couldn't see the appearance of this person. He only knew that the aura he exuded was extremely cold, as if he was not a living person. At the same time, he also exuded a crazy and chaotic aura, just like the blood moon in the night sky.
Seeing these two uninvited guests, the expression on Emperor Jianwu's face instantly became serious.
Because he smelled the breath of demigods in these two people.
"These two people are also from the Black Lotus Religion? All the demigods of the Black Lotus Religion have been recorded in my notebook, but these two people are not there... Could it be that they are newly promoted demigods?"
The Black Lotus Cult's murderous skills can make people practice so fast in troubled times and wars.
But at the same time, this technique also has a very fatal flaw, that is, after breaking through to become a demigod, it is easy to go crazy and lose control because of the inability to control one's own strength and murderous intention.
Before that, the Black Lotus Sect's crazy demigods did not need to be dispatched by the Demon Suppression Department. Emperor Jianwu would issue a decree as the Lord Buddha and order the followers to twist the crazy demigods into his hands for salvation. .
And the way to achieve salvation is to throw these crazy demigods into a pill furnace and refine them into secret medicine...
Therefore, in the hands of Emperor Jianwu, the Black Lotus Sect was a tool that served him in cultivating immortality and becoming a god.
Not only do you have to do the dirty work, but you also have to contribute yourself and help him refine the elixir.
It is also for this reason that every demigod of the Black Lotus Sect was recorded in a book by Emperor Jianwu, waiting for them to go crazy and capture them to make elixirs.
And now, two Black Lotus Sect demigods that he didn't know appeared, and he couldn't help but suspect that these two guys were recently promoted demigods? Or had the news been concealed before?
If it is the latter, then the people of the Black Lotus Sect may have been plotting against themselves!
I just don’t know if they are setting up these battles to destroy their own sacrifice ceremony, or are they trying to take the opportunity to lure them out of the city and lure them to death?
Suspicion suddenly arose in Emperor Jianwu's heart, but he had no time to think about it because the two weird demigods had already killed him in front of him...
