In Ziyang County City, in the luxurious private room of the restaurant, everyone was looking at Zhongchang Taoist Cao Shaoyang.
Cao Shaoyang's face was as dark as water, and he was thinking quickly in his heart.
Why did Xiao Zhi know that Cao Shaoyang was here? He, Cao Shaoyang, came here without much fanfare, and few people knew about it.
Could it be that someone among the people present secretly revealed his whereabouts?
This possibility is very high.
Among the people present, there were not many confidants he could trust, most of them were local monks from Ziyang County.
If it is the Taoist masters of the other thirteen roads, the commanders of the counties and cities under their jurisdiction will most likely be their close subordinates. However, Zhongchang Road is different. There are too many big forces and powerful bosses in Zhongchang Road. , which greatly weakened his control over Zhongchang Dao as the master of Zhongchang Dao.
Not to mention Zhongchang Farewell County, this is Ziyang County. Although Ziyang County Lord behaves respectfully and submissively in front of him, in fact, he is not his confidant and has backstage support behind him.
In Ziyang County, the situation is the same for other high-level officials such as the county magistrate and the county lieutenant, and they also have their own heel.
The composition of these people is very complicated, and they are all looking at him now.
Dachang Shenmen is now divided into three branches. The three branches appear to be in harmony but are different in spirit. There are various discords in the dark, but these have not been exposed to the public. On the surface, everyone is still connected by the same blood, sharing weal and woe, and is in harmony.
Besides, he is the Taoist Master of Zhongchang and has the responsibility of guarding the land. He just pretended not to know, but now the voice of Xiao Zhi has spread throughout Ziyang County. How can he sit back and ignore it? Continue to pretend not to know?
Thinking of this, Zhongchang Taoist Cao Shaoyang slowly stood up...
But dozens of miles away from Ziyang County, the huge figure of Demon Lord Jiao Bai, which was more than a hundred feet long, only froze in mid-air for a moment, and then continued to zigzag towards Xiao Zhi.
It screamed in a hoarse and weird voice: "Such a crude trick? Are you trying to defraud me? Are humans careless? You don't have to struggle in vain anymore, just accept your death!"
How could Xiao Zhi accept death? He was still running away in the direction of Ziyang County.
He admitted that the words he shouted were indeed a bit clumsy. But clumsy is still clumsy? The effect was still there. As soon as he shouted these words, he immediately bought him a moment of time.
At this time, he was running forward with all his strength, but Demon Lord Jiao Bai's body froze in mid-air for a moment. The ebb and flow of the situation suddenly made the distance between them wider.
Xiao Zhi was calculating quickly in his mind. In just this moment, he could advance an additional 3 or 4 miles in the direction of Ziyang County.
Xiao Zhi fled forward crazily, while Demon Lord Jiao Bai was swimming in mid-air, chasing after him. As they chased and escaped, the distance between the two was quickly shortened again, and it was already so close. The distance is less than 10 miles.
Xiao Zhi exhaled again and shouted: "Master Taoist, save me! If you don't take action, I will really be killed!"
With the blessing of true energy, his voice once again spread like thunder in all directions.
Even if the same trick is used twice, it still has some effect.
After Xiao Zhi shouted these words, the big white dragon chasing him behind him froze in mid-air and stagnated for a moment with its winding figure.
This allowed Xiao Zhi to rush an extra 2 or 3 miles in the direction of Ziyang County City.
Being deceived by the same clumsy trick twice in a row, Demon Lord Jiao Bai felt that his demon face had no place to put it. It screamed repeatedly, and the white mist around it was rolling and boiling like boiling water.
With just a flick of its tail, it tore through the air and shortened the distance between it and Xiao Zhi by hundreds of feet!
At this time, there was only a few hundred feet between it and Xiao Zhi.
This distance is already within its effective attack range.
Then he saw it open its mouth and spit forward, and white mist came out of nowhere around Xiao Zhi.
Xiao Zhi, who was in it, had his field of vision suddenly reduced sharply.
Xiao Zhi felt as if he was in a quagmire, and his running speed had dropped significantly compared to before.
Not only that, but the white mist turned into a rope as thick as an arm, binding Xiao Zhi.
White mist turned into weapons and attacked Xiao Zhi from all directions.
There was white mist that turned into the phantom of Demon Lord Jiaobai, swimming in mid-air, and pounced on Xiao Zhi.
These are not illusions, but real and effective attacks.
This is the terror of the Demon Lord-level monster, this is the legendary external domain attack.
This kind of extremely external domain attack poses no threat at all to Nascent Soul monks who also have domains, but it can pose a great threat to Jindan monks like Xiao Zhi who do not have domains. , even fatal disaster!
Then he saw the ropes turned into white mist, bounding towards Xiao Zhi in circles, and the swords turned into white mist and the white dragon phantom attacking Xiao Zhi from all directions.
Xiao Zhi had no choice but to use his Lingbao-level Bei Chun Dao, and used the Bei Chun Dao to chop through the ropes, weapons, and white dragon phantoms.
Even ordinary attacks using the Bei Chun Dao cannot break through these rope swords transformed into white mist.
Xiao Zhi shouted low and had no choice but to use his killing move [Body-killing Knife]. Only then did he cut off the rope that was tied to him and dispersed it into a piece of white mist, along with several items that were bound by the white mist. The transformed swords were also reduced to white mist.
However, if you use a knife to cut this circle of rope, what's the use of those weapons?
Within the scope shrouded in white mist, the ropes and weapons are endless and endless.
At this time, Xiao Zhi had been completely hindered by the white mist that appeared out of thin air and the things that took shape in the white mist.
With a ferocious look on his face, Xiao Zhi swung his sword again and again, using his killing move [Body-Destroying Sword], slashing the things transformed by the white mist in front of him, and smashing these transformed things into pieces.
Although he looked fierce on his face, Xiao Zhi's heart was cold.
At this time, there was still a distance of 27 miles between him and Ziyang County.
This distance, in normal times, he could reach in the blink of an eye. It was not a distance at all, but to him now, it was as far away as a chasm.
At this time, although he was still struggling and fighting hard, his heart was already filled with despair.
Now, he is already in the territory of this monster-level dragon, and he has no way to escape.
Xiao Zhi, one man with one sword, acted very fiercely, but there were times when his defense would fail.
Then there was a sneer, and a long sword turned into white mist, like a real long sword, struck Xiao Zhi's back like lightning.
The dark black embroidered silver martial uniform worn by Xiao Zhi was suddenly torn by the long knife, and a bright and dazzling cyan light burst out. This was the defense of the Lingbao-level Aolong Armor being triggered.
In just an instant, several swords struck Xiao Zhi's body from all directions. The dark black embroidered silver military uniform Xiao Zhi wore instantly fell into pieces, and bright and dazzling blue light burst out from his body.
The phantom of a white dragon appeared, opening its big mouth full of fangs, and was about to swallow Xiao Zhi in one gulp, but was blocked by the dazzling cyan light blooming from the Aolong armor.
The attack of another white dragon phantom was also blocked by the Aolong Armor.
It can be said that if it were not for the Aolong Armor, the demon-level dragon would not even need to attack personally. It could completely crush Xiao Zhi just by virtue of its domain.
Body-killing knife!
Xiao Zhi held the Lingbao-level Sad Spring Sword in his hand and once again used the killing move [Body-killing Sword].
Then he saw a sword energy as black as ink, surrounding Xiao Zhi like a horse, smashing all the ropes, swords and white dragon shadows that were attacking him.
When Xiao Zhi was about to take advantage of this opportunity to rush out, he felt that the white mist in front of him suddenly became more than ten times thicker, which caused his speed to drop sharply!
Xiao Zhi's figure suddenly stopped in mid-air, and his pupils suddenly shrank into needlepoint shapes.
At this moment, a huge and ferocious head was floating in front of his eyes. This was a huge white dragon head, exactly the head of the demon-level dragon.
Xiao Zhi looked so small in front of this huge head. One of his eyes was bigger than his entire body.
When Xiao Zhi saw the dragon's head, a terrifying pressure came over Xiao Zhi like an overwhelming force.
Xiao Zhi's body was unable to move for a moment.
Creaking, the dragon armor he was wearing made a sound like the metal was being twisted by the terrifying pressure, and erupted into a dazzling cyan light, which was quickly dimming.
As for Xiao Zhi, his body was deformed by this terrifying pressure, and his body-protecting true energy was being consumed at a terrifying speed. Golden blood was flowing out of his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.
At this moment, Xiao Zhi felt really desperate.
He had thought that he might not be a match for this monster-level giant dragon, so as soon as he discovered it, he decisively chose to run away.
In his imagination, although he would not be the opponent of this monster-level giant dragon, as a peak-level Golden Core martial artist, and with the Lingbao-level dragon armor for protection, he was slightly in the opponent's hands. You can still do it if you resist.
What he didn't expect was that he would be so vulnerable in front of the other party! There is simply no resistance!
The strength gap between the two is so huge!
He felt like he was going to die.
This is not his illusion, he is really about to die. Once Aolongjia's defense is wiped out, that will be his death!
In just one breath, the bright cyan light blooming from the Aolong Armor became dim. When it was completely dim, it meant that it had completely lost its defense.
Even though he had reached the most desperate moment, even though he knew he would die, Xiao Zhi still did not give up his struggle. He was still exploding his physical strength and true energy, struggling with all his strength.
His eyes were open, staring intently at the huge and ferocious dragon head floating in front of him.
Even if he died, he would still have the image of the monster-level dragon that killed him deeply imprinted in his mind.
As for revenge...
There should be no hope in his life to avenge this in person.
After his death, everything would have to start over. By then, he had no confidence at all that he would reach the Nascent Soul Realm, the Golden Core Realm, or even the Foundation Establishment Stage, let alone the Nascent Soul Realm.
Once he dies, this turbulent stage will be completely gone for him. He will sadly withdraw from this stage and become a spectator of this era, disappearing from the sight of the people.
Just when Xiao Zhi was imprisoned by Demon Lord Jiao Bai with the power of his domain, unable to move, and feeling despair in his heart, the change suddenly increased!
The huge dragon head floating in front of Xiao Zhi, looking extremely majestic and ferocious, seemed to have noticed something, and showed a human expression of fear and astonishment.
The next moment, Xiao Zhi felt that the terrifying pressure acting on him, like the gravity of a neutron star, suddenly reduced several times!
The thick white mist around him boiled like boiling water.
The huge dragon head in front of him suddenly disappeared.
Xiao Zhi found that his body could move, and a dazzling white light suddenly erupted from his body. This was the light that erupted when the true energy in his body was pushed to the extreme.
Xiao Zhi mobilized the true energy in his body with all his strength and rushed out of the rolling white mist desperately.
Finally, he broke out of the area covered by the white mist, and the world in front of him suddenly became clearer.
After rushing out of the area covered by the white mist, Xiao Zhiyu's flying speed increased suddenly, and he rushed hundreds of feet ahead in an instant.
Only then did he turn his head and look behind him.
He saw two huge cloud-like things rolling and entangled in mid-air, causing the entire sky to change color and causing frequent strange phenomena!
One group is white mist, and the other group is cyan.
Xiao Zhi realized instantly that these were two realms, colliding and fighting with each other.
Golden elixir monks or demon king-level monsters can only have the prototype of a domain at most.
Those who can possess a complete domain must be Nascent Soul Overhaul or Demon Lord!
A Nascent Soul Daxiu or a Demon Lord came over and fought with this monster-level giant dragon!
Because of this, Xiao Zhi, who was almost in a desperate situation, was able to take advantage of this opportunity and escape.
Just looking back, Xiao Zhi thought of many things.
He rushed out of the white mist, without stopping in mid-air. He didn't even have time to wipe away the golden blood coming out of his eyes, ears, mouth and nose with his hands. He used his magical power [shrink the ground into an inch], One step is a hundred feet away.
He took steps one after another regardless of the consumption, and used his magical power [Shrink to an Inch] one after another, turning into an afterimage that flickered on and off, and rushed towards the direction of Ziyang County City.
20 miles...10 miles...5 miles...
Xiao Zhi's figure flashed and turned into an afterimage. He felt that he had passed through a cold water curtain. There was a flash of lavender light in front of him. He had entered the coverage of Ziyang County City's city defense formation.
It was only then that Xiao Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
