Acharya Shou really didn't expect that in addition to meeting the two top masters Mo Shen and the black-robed man tonight, there would be such an incredible and powerful person here.
With a shout, the man broke the illusion caused by her "suspended mirror" and solved the crisis between the two silent people; then with one step, he broke the killing formation she had carefully laid out. In the end, he waved his hand lightly. No one could see what kind of move he was using, but his power could reach a hundred steps away. In an instant, he forced back the hidden master with good cultivation. How can one use the word "master" to describe such a terrifying cultivation level?
The priestess, whose status in the Holy Missionary Church was second only to the king's head, was pale and ferocious at the moment, but her heart was filled with surging fear.
In Acharya Shouzhen's memory, she had also seen a person with a terrifying cultivation level similar to that person, and that person was the Holy Evangelist Yue Wuque, who was blessed by a demon species.
Acharya Shoujin once believed that Yue Wuque's cultivation level was now almost invincible in the world. After Yue Wuque ascended to the position of leader, she began extremely rigorous training in order to avenge the Central Plains martial arts community. And she was originally a descendant of the former leader Yue Zhihua, and her talent and understanding were extraordinary. During the sleepless training, Yue Wuque's cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds, and her martial arts realm grew by leaps and bounds. In twenty years, Yue Wuque has become the most powerful person in the Western Region, and no one dares to disobey her supreme authority.
The two ancient demon species regarded as sacred objects by the Holy Evangelist contain extraordinary powers beyond the scope of common sense. Yue Wuque spent many years of time and energy and finally successfully combined one of the demon species with her. With the blessing of the power of the demon seed, Yue Wuque's cultivation has almost exceeded the limit of human potential. From then on, he was regarded as a miraculous existence in the Western Territory, and became an unparalleled person who was wholeheartedly worshiped by the entire Western Territory.
In the minds of the Holy Evangelist and countless people in the Western Territory, Yue Wuque is invincible. She is the sky of the Western Territory and the God of the Holy Evangelist!
It was with this confidence that when Yue Wuque decided to conquer the Central Plains martial arts again, she was able to get the absolute support of almost the entire Holy Missionary congregation and the vast majority of the people in the Western Region. Although there are still a very small number of Holy Missionaries who have negative doubts about such a decision, in Yue Wuque's eyes, it is not worth mentioning at all, and she does not care.
And those people in the Western Region, after years of deliberate indoctrination and manipulation by Yue Wuque, have already regarded the martial arts forest in the Central Plains, thousands of miles away, as an evil place. Although they had never personally experienced the bloody battle with the Central Plains martial arts, with Yue Wuque's affirmation, there was absolutely nothing wrong, because the miraculous leader Yue Wuque was absolutely infallible. Because she is the God of the West, and what she says is the truth.
Therefore, that month, the whole religion mobilized its strength to march eastward to the Central Plains. The people in the western border were excited and united. In their eyes, the leader did not want to mobilize troops and go to the Central Plains to cause trouble, but to carry out a redemption and regain the glory and dignity that belonged to the Western Region.
As a holy priest, Acharya Shouzhen, who is highly trusted by Yue Wuque and Chongyuan, is Yue Wuque's most devout believer. She firmly believes that if the current leader returns to the Central Plains, he will definitely be invincible in the world. No one can resist it.
But what makes Asha Shou really unbelievable is that in this barren land, a person with the same power as Yue Wuque suddenly appeared. How could this not make her horrified?
According to the information from the Holy Legend, except for Lu Huaichen of the Qingcheng Mountain Chongzhen Sword Sect, there are no masters of this level in the martial arts world of the Central Plains. And even Lu Huaichen, who is known as the number one martial artist in the Central Plains, has definitely not reached the cultivation level of the leader Yue Wuque in the heart of the priestess.
Nowadays, the Holy Spirit has been working hard for twenty years, and there are many masters in the teaching. Looking at the martial arts in the Central Plains, apart from the Taoist sect, there is an old Taoist priest who is nearly a hundred years old. The whereabouts of the Confucian sect, Shang Yixing, are unknown after the war. The rest of the sects have already been killed and injured in that war and have long since declined. The once prosperous Buddhist Tianlun Temple was also affected by the war. More than half of the eminent monks in the temple were lost, and it has long lost its former glory. According to intelligence, although Tianlun Temple is showing signs of revival, it was nothing more than clouds and mud before the current power of the Holy Legend.
Among other powerful martial arts forces in the Central Plains, the Sword Sect suffered the heaviest losses in the war. After the war, they established themselves as a sect to cultivate themselves. In the past twenty years, no disciples have been seen setting foot in the martial arts world. Chunqiu Pavilion has become famous in recent years, but it is a gangster gang that does not distinguish between black and white. Although there are many people and strength, they may not be able to unite as one. Such a force, in the face of absolutely powerful force, would be the ones who would collapse the fastest.
In addition to Jianzong and Chunqiu Pavilion, although there are still many Jianghu gangs in the Central Plains martial arts world, for Shengchuan, these forces are simply low-level organizations that cannot be mentioned on the stage and are not worth mentioning.
Therefore, looking at the Central Plains, it seems that there is only one Taoist priest Lu left who can be named as a master on the stage. And in such a large Central Plains martial arts world, there is only one old man who is nearly a hundred years old to support the scene, which is not something to be proud of.
So in Yue Wuque's eyes, the Zhongyuan Wulin was now extremely ill. Even if he was not dead, his back was broken and he was just lingering. And she, Yue Wuque, is making a comeback now, just to be the terminator who can give the last breath to the dying Central Plains martial arts world.
This has been planned for a long time and everything is under control.
But now, who is that person?
If this person is really a member of the martial arts community in the Central Plains, with such an amazing cultivation level, there is no way that he will be missed by the Holy Legend intelligence network that has already penetrated the Central Plains.
Thinking of this, Ah Shou Zhen's heart suddenly sank. She immediately thought that the intelligence network they sent to the Central Plains seemed to have really missed some very important people, such as Shen Mo.
The origin and identity of Silence is a mystery, no one knows it, and there is no record of this person in the Holy Tradition. He was like a person who suddenly appeared out of nowhere just today.
And the same is true for that mysterious person.
Acharya Shouzhen suddenly felt uneasy in his heart. This is definitely no small matter.
The formation was broken, the vision dissipated, and a bright moon hung high in the night sky.
Under the faint moonlight, the mysterious man slowly emerged from the darkness. His steps were light and casual, and there was no sign of energy flowing in his body.
Under the faint moonlight, one could see that the man was tall and thin, about forty-five or six years old, with a white face and clear facial features. He was wearing an ordinary linen robe that had been washed a little white. Although he looks no older than middle-aged, his long hair that is casually hanging around is already more white than black.
This man stepped out casually, without any trace of the demeanor of a peerless master. If it weren't for the amazing ability he just showed, Asha Shou would have almost thought that he was just a depressed and miserable guy from a private school in the countryside. Mr. Teach.
Acharya Shoujin looked on with cold eyes. This person could cover up his aura so tightly and yet be so tactful and natural. This shows that his cultivation can be said to have reached the advanced level.
Shen Mo took the opportunity to use his true energy to suppress the poison in his body, while carefully looking at the man, only to find that the man was dressed in an ordinary style, and except for a wine gourd in his hand, he had nothing special.
"Little girl, it's getting late, why don't you go?"
The man chuckled softly and glanced at the priestess in an indifferent tone.
Although the man's tone and eyes were extremely gentle, Acharya Shou was inexplicably frightened in her heart. There was obviously no aura of master in that man's body, but she could clearly feel that there was an extremely fierce and compelling aura, following his words. It seemed like they were coming from all directions, surrounding her.
"who are you?"
Acharya Shouzhen took a step back subconsciously and vigilantly. She moved her arm slightly, and something slipped into her sleeve quietly. Acharya Shoujin immediately took the object in his palm. In her other hand, there was also a mirror turned upside down, which was a hanging mirror.
The man smiled calmly when he heard this and said, "It's best that you don't know who I am."
Acharya Shou's thoughts suddenly changed, and he suddenly blurted out: "Could it be that you are the old Taoist priest from Qingcheng Mountain Chongzhen Sword Sect, Lu Huaichen?"
Although Ah Shou Zhen was not too sure that the person was Lu Huaichen, the headmaster of the Chongzhen Sword Sect, now he could think of only one person in the Central Plains who could match such a level of cultivation, and Lu Huaichen was the only one left.
As soon as these words came out, Silence was stunned, and his eyes couldn't help but stare at that person.
The man seemed stunned for a moment, then he opened his hands and looked at his clothes, frowned and asked, "Do I look like a Taoist priest?"
His attire certainly does not suggest that of a Taoist priest.
Acharya Shouzhen frowned slightly. Since this person is not Lu Huaichen, then what is his identity?
"It's really eye-opening for me that there are masters like you in the Central Plains."
Acharya Shou saw that the man didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack her, so the fear in his heart was slightly reduced, but he was still vigilant. She observed the man carefully and continued: "Although your Excellency has extraordinary cultivation, you should not meddle in the affairs of my Holy Tradition."
Although she was afraid of that person in her heart, her expression and tone were not polite and still cold and threatening.
"Holy Missionary?"
The man raised his eyebrows, suddenly laughed, and said calmly: "How many years has it been since Yue Zhihua died? Aren't his descendants still giving up?"
When Acharya Shou saw him mentioning the name of the previous leader of the Holy Tradition with a hint of contempt in his tone, his face suddenly turned cold and a surge of anger emerged. Then he tightened his hands.
The man's gaze was like a piercing fire. He glanced at Acharya Shoujin and said in a calm tone: "The horn of hope, the hanging mirror, and the spirit plate. They are all old objects for many years."
His expression suddenly appeared dazed for a moment, and then he looked at Acharya Shouzhen and continued: "If my guess is correct, you must have the Purifying Cloud Staff, right?"
"Ah...?" When Acharya Shou heard this, he was startled and blurted out: "How do you know?"
The man put one hand on his back and gently turned the wine gourd with the other. Suddenly he sighed softly, then shook his head and said: "You are indeed the disciple of that guy who is neither male nor female. All the Yin and Yang veins have disappeared. How many years has it been? I thought that guy had already cut off the sect’s continuity, but I didn’t expect that he actually had descendants..."
He suddenly snorted softly in his nostrils, and his tone became a little more serious, and said: "Is this the so-called scourge that has lasted for thousands of years? No wonder a girl like you is colluding with the Holy Missionary. It's not surprising. "
The man's words were strange, and Acharya Shou was really confused when she heard what he said. She seemed to be confused, and she couldn't help but be confused when she saw that the man could casually tell her background.
The man's eyes were once again focused on Acharya Shouzhen's face, he frowned slightly and said, "Since the Yin Yang Sect still has disciples, is the ghost Liang Tianque not dead yet?"
Acharya Shoujin suddenly opened his mouth, his face full of surprise and shock.
"That person still exists..." The person completely ignored the change in the demon priest's expression, but said to himself: "Then the yin-yang person Gui Liang Tianque will never dare to appear in the world easily..."
He paused, looked at Acharya Shouzhen, and asked: "It seems that your qualifications and talents are indeed good, but I don't know whether you are Guiliang Tianque's disciple or grandson?"
Acharya Shouzhen looked surprised and said, "How do you know the master's name?"
"Master?" The man's expression darkened, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He sneered and said: "The centipede insect is indeed dead but not stiff. It is really disgusting!"
The man glanced at the remains of Chongli, who was still struggling and twisting on the ground, and then looked at Acharya Shouzhen, as if he wanted to see her through.
"The Horn of Hope, the Suspended Mirror, the Spirit Appraisal Plate, the Purifying Cloud Staff. There are also the Secret Array of Magic Techniques and the Method of Corpse Sacrifice..." The man's eyes became colder and his tone became colder, "These Yin and Yang Secret Treasures and Secret Techniques have always been All the treasures that the Yin and Yang people of Guiliang cherished have been passed down to you now, and you seem to have great attainments. It seems that he really values you very much..."
He paused again and pondered in silence. The hand holding the wine gourd no longer moved, but his fingers slowly tapped the gourd, as if he was thinking about something.
Acharya Shou saw that his tone and expression suddenly changed at the same time, and he became wary. The hanging mirror and another object in his hand tightened at the same time.
That thing was a dark copper plate about two feet in size. The copper plate was uneven and had some vague patterns carved on it.
The man suddenly snorted coldly: "If you want to seek death, you can try it in front of me."
Acharya Shou was really shocked. She noticed a trace of murderous intent in the man's eyes.
Could it be that while he was pondering just now, he already had murderous intentions towards her?
If he wanted to attack him, or even want to kill himself, Acharya Shou would not be able to escape even if he used all his skills in his life.
He watched silently and coldly. Although he didn't know what the man's words meant, seeing that Acharya Shouzhen, who was originally so cunning and vicious, was so timid and in a dilemma at this moment, he was obviously extremely afraid of that man. In this way, Silence couldn't help but become more curious about that person.
He turned to look at the masked man in black robe beside him. He couldn't see clearly the expression of the man in black robe, but he found that he was standing with his hands behind his hands, his whole body looked calm and calm, and his eyes became relaxed and natural. He didn't seem to be too surprised by the man's sudden appearance.
Silently's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly came up with a suspicious thought - Could it be that these two people were originally together?
If this is true, then the identity of this man in black robe is extraordinary and has a great origin.
With this in mind, Shen Sheng returned the sword to its sheath, and continued to secretly exercise his power and adjust his breath while remaining silent and observing the changes.
His upper body was almost completely torn, and half of his trouser legs were also torn apart, revealing his muscular upper body and half of his calves. Apart from the Seven Kills Sword, the only thing on his body was a two-foot-long leather bag hanging on his belt. The swollen leather bag seemed to contain many things. Other than that, I have nothing else to carry with me.
Although it is a cold night and the cold wind is biting, the inner strength of silence is deep. A few breath adjustments with luck in the secret have suppressed the poison of the soul-stealing nail. Now the hundreds of acupuncture points in the body are unobstructed and full of energy and blood. The true energy protects the body from the wind and cold. Not afraid of the cold either.
Shen Mo was originally standing with a knife in one hand and one hand hanging down casually, but suddenly he was holding the knife and hugging his chest with both hands, and his two muscular arms covered his entire chest.
His action was natural and casual, as if he was using his hands to block the wind because his naked upper body was a little cold, so it did not attract the attention of the man in black robe next to him.
The man in black robe saw the silent action, but now his attention was on Acharya Shouzhen, and who would care about the other meanings of a hand-clasping gesture.
But he saw that Acharya Shou's face was cloudy and uncertain, and his thoughts were changing rapidly - now that her helping hand had withdrawn, and she was alone, Shen Shen and the two of them had accidentally fallen into her secret trick because they were unprepared. Although there are still many means, if you want to repeat the old tricks, I am afraid that you will no longer have the upper hand. The two of them are top martial arts masters, but they are not good at fighting. If they fight head-on, they probably have no chance of winning.
But what Asha Shou was most afraid of was the mysterious man who looked ordinary but was extremely extraordinary. With his cultivation, he could kill her easily without the two of them taking action.
Thinking of this, the corner of Acharya Shouzhen's mouth twitched fiercely, and the hanging mirror and spiritual disk in her hands tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened again. Although her face was still sinister and disdainful, she actually had the intention of quitting... …
But after all, she has a high status in the Holy Tradition. She is someone who has seen big scenes. She also bears the prestige of the entire Holy Tradition. Even if she faces a strong enemy, she will never retreat lightly. Now that the Holy Tradition has returned to the Central Plains, it is even more necessary to establish its power and shock the Central Plains martial arts with thunderous means. If she retreats out of fear at this moment, wouldn't it damage the prestige of the Holy Tradition?
After thinking about it, Acharya Shou gritted his teeth and his eyes suddenly glazed over.
The man had already seen the change in her expression, and said calmly: "Are you dissatisfied? Or don't believe it?"
Acharya Shou raised his slender eyebrows with murderous intent, but did not answer.
The man smiled faintly, raised his right foot slightly, and then stepped on it lightly.
As soon as his foot hit the ground, a majestic force surged up and suddenly crashed into the remains of Chong Li, who was still making a hoarse roar.
In the blink of an eye, Zhong Li, who only had half of his upper body, was transformed into a ball of green smoke by the mighty force, like a fallen leaf blown by the wind, which was then blown away by the cold wind.
The corners of Acharya Shoujin's mouth twitched fiercely, and his face was so gloomy that it almost dripped water.
"I know that there are two puppet-armored war corpses ten feet behind you." The man's expression remained unchanged, as if the casual blow just swept away an insignificant fallen leaf, he said calmly: "And you judge With the spirit plate in hand, you can activate your second formation hidden here at any time..."
"Whether you are dissatisfied or not convinced, these methods of yours may be extremely scary to others, but in front of me, they are nothing more than child's play."
After the man finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and flicked his fingers into the void several times. In his silent ears, he could vaguely hear the sound of breaking wind, and four different sounds suddenly came out from four locations in the southeast, northwest and more than ten feet away. of vibration.
A ball of fire rose up in the east, a column of water spurted out in the west; a steel knife that was broken into two parts popped up in the south, while a deep pit exploded in the north.
Acharya Shoujin's eyes seemed to be bursting with fire.
"In the final analysis, the movement of stars and formations still requires the help of external forces, which is not worth mentioning... Presumably this hidden second formation is the Qiankun Xuanji Formation, right?" The man looked at Asha Shou and said, "No way. Not to mention that you are indeed extremely talented and courageous, and you actually used your own wooden position to become the eye of the formation, so that you can quickly activate the formation by relying on the spirit disk. Such a method does have a bit of a ghostly character. Yin Yang old ghost style.”
When Acharya Shou heard this, his expression finally changed drastically. Not only could that person see what kind of formation she had set up, but he also managed to break her formation method in an understatement. He could also deduce her hidden formation. Such knowledge was truly unbelievable, and even more so. Unbelievable.
"you you……"
Acharya Shou was shaking slightly. She looked at the man as if she had seen a ghost.
"Gui Liang Tianque has spent his whole life specializing in these insidious methods that cannot be put on the table, especially the technique of corpse sacrifice, which is even more disgusting!" The man said coldly: "When I see this puppet corpse, I will I know that you, a girl, are quite proficient in the corpse sacrifice technique. I also know that it takes a lot of effort to refine a formed corpse. I destroyed it to warn you that this kind of thing is harmful to the heaven and the world. If you don’t want to be punished by God’s vicious technique, you’d better not use it lightly again.”
Silence's heart sank when he heard the words. It turned out that Chongli was not a living person at all, but a refined corpse. No wonder it could still be so ferocious after breaking off its arm, because it felt no pain at all.
And there are actually two such puppets behind Acharya Shou!
Acharya Shou's face twisted, her tone was trembling but sharp, and she said in a deep voice: "Who...are you?"
"Who am I?" The man suddenly sighed softly. He looked up at the sky and murmured: "Whether it is your master Gui Liang Tianque or the founder of the holy sect, they dare not show up in front of me. Yelling. So you, a little girl, have the right to ask me who I am?"
As soon as she said this, Acharya Shou seemed to have been hit hard. She backed away repeatedly, with an expression of disbelief on her face and eyes.
It was like she heard the craziest sentence in the world. But the man's tone was not crazy at all.
As a priest of the Holy Tradition, Acharya Shoujin knows the history of the Holy Tradition best.
It has been nearly a hundred years since the establishment of the Holy Tradition, with three generations of leaders. And now Yue Wuque is the third leader.
But the founder of the Holy Tradition passed away decades ago.
The founder of the religion was nearly a hundred years old when he died.
As for the man in front of him who looked like he was only in his forties, it could be heard from his words that he actually knew the founding founder of the Holy Tradition!
This sentence is more than just crazy?
What makes Acharya Shou really unbelievable is that it can be seen from the words and actions of the man just now that he knows his master and has some kind of extraordinary past with him.
As for what kind of relationship they have, Acharya Shoujin has no idea. However, from the unfriendly tone in which the man mentioned his master, she guessed that there was probably some grudge between the two, or that they were enemies.
And Shen Mo's body was also shaken, and he looked at the man in surprise.
The man in black robe also had obvious surprise in his eyes.
"How is it possible..." Acharya Shouzhen looked at the man and said in surprise: "My Holy Saint Patriarch has already dedicated his life to the Great God of Heaven sixty years ago. How can you possibly know him?"
The man snorted coldly: "Since there is an immortal monster like your master in this world, what else is impossible?"
"ah!……"
Acharya Shou was so shocked that he was speechless for a moment.
The man was right. Her master's name was indeed Gui Liang Tianque, and the sect she belonged to was indeed a sect called "Yin Yang Sect". But this sect has been in decline for decades, and apart from Acharya Shoujin, there are no other disciples.
And her master is now almost a hundred years old, and he is indeed the "old immortal" that that person calls him.
But if you think about it this way, if what the man said is true, how old should he be?
Silence's heart suddenly sank. He looked at the figure and vaguely remembered a person.
And this person is also his master.
When Shen Mo met his master for the first time, his appearance and age were not old. But the reality is that his master was already nearly 130 years old at that time.
At this moment, Silence has realized that the person in front of him seems to be the same kind of person as his master.
