“There’s no need to chase.”
The King of Biancheng seemed to shed a hazy black veil outside his body, revealing his true form.
He was dressed in the imperial robes of the Ten Kings of the Underworld, on which a hundred ghosts cried and shouted, a treacherous sight.
Yes, the King of Biancheng is a woman.
“I can’t even catch a single trace of those two with my hundred ghosts’ soul-searching technique. The Biancheng King then said.
The Sheriff God also stopped in his tracks, he knew that the Biancheng King was right. As a Sheriff God, of course he would not be missing the art of tracking, and the Sheriff God had started out as a small constable.
With his tracking skills, he could not even catch the other party’s aura, and it was too difficult to catch up with them.
Of course, the Sheriff God could follow the traces on the road and slowly follow them, but such a method could only tell where the other party was going, and to rely on this method to catch up with a strong person who could fly at the Tong Shen realm would be a dream.
After all, one would have to spend time looking for traces, while the other would simply fly away, and there would be no need to try who was fast and who was slow.
“But the good thing is that we have finally captured a scroll of scripture.” The Sheriff God’s gaze burned towards the blood-stained scroll of scripture in the Biancheng King’s hand, his frenzied eyes seeming to burn the scripture up.
Wasn’t the reason for intercepting Xuan Lin the Book of Warriors and Martial Arts? Now, although he had not captured all of it, it would be good to capture a single volume.
Moreover, at this time, other people were also looking for Xuan Lin’s whereabouts in various parts of the Great Qian. As long as they were informed by the Thousand Mile Mirror Light Formation, so that they could intercept them at the border, then it would not be impossible to seize another scripture.
King Biancheng lifted his hand and brushed the cover of the scripture, and the delicate death Qi swept away the life in the blood, causing it to quickly turn into a cloud of dust and shake away.
And then the scroll that fell into their hands revealed its name.
“The Scroll of the Earth ——” a voice with a hint of huskiness came from beneath the beaded curtain, “is it a scripture that expounds on the wonders of the earth? That young Daoist monarch is so well versed in all the essentials of heaven and earth?”
So far, the martial arts that Daoist monarch Qing Yu has demonstrated include sun, cloud qi, yin and yang, vitality, and ocean —— all kinds of different and even somewhat opposite attributes, all converging in one, and even managing to master all of them, which is really astonishing.
“It should be,” said the catcher god, “Qing Yu’s gong method is extremely similar to that of the Tai Shang Dao Sect, taking in all the laws and qi for its own use. I heard that the ancestor of the True Martial Sect, Emperor Zhen Wu, had a lifelong wish to create a divine technique comparable to the ‘Tai Shang Kai Tian Sutra’, so perhaps Qing Yu has received the legacy of Emperor Zhen Wu and realized a martial technique very similar to the ‘Tai Shang Kai Tian Sutra’.”
“In that case, this ‘Scroll of the Earth’ would be very valuable to enlighten.” King Biancheng smiled lightly as he put the scripture into his sleeve.
The legacy of the True Martial Emperor, a martial art that was similar to the “Tai Shang Kai Tian Jing”, was something that even the Ten Kings of the Palace of You would be moved by.
“Beware, the demon dao of Qing Yu is exceptionally cunning, perhaps there is a trap hidden in the scriptures.” The Sheriff God warned.
“That’s natural.”
The Biancheng King once again transformed into a spectral shadow, his entire body was like a Yin World ghost, pulling out countless ghostly shadows and disappearing deep into the dense forest.
“Bring Xuan Lin’s corpse back to Department Six, and you will personally conduct an autopsy to probe if there are any hidden dangers left in his body from the cultivation of the Armour of War Scripture.” The Sheriff God instructed Leng Mad Tu personally.
Leng Fantu was arguably the best coroner at Department Six, and his martial arts skills had been honed in the process of decomposing the corpse, so the Sheriff God was relieved to leave it to him.
“My subordinate understands.”
————————
On the other side, Jian Ji and Xiao Qiye swept inside a cave and swung the Undesired Devil Sword, a transparent light waved out from the sword and enveloped the two of them.
“I used the ability to replicate the Voidless Demon Mirror earlier, they won’t be able to find us under the ability to hide it.” Jian Ji said.
The Heavenly Devil Soldier, Wu Delusion, was able to copy the supernatural abilities of the divine weapons it had come into contact with, but could only retain one supernatural ability in the sword. Now Wu Delusion had eliminated the Heaven Splitting and Earth Breaking supernatural ability and copied the Void Demon Mirror’s ability to obfuscate existence.
“What should we do next?” Xiao Qiye, who was not good at wise planning, asked.
“Of course, we should find a way to circulate the ‘Scroll of Heaven’ as well.”
The corners of Jian Ji’s mouth hung in a sneer as she weighed the scripture in one hand.
“When we return to Northern Zhou from Central China, there will surely be no shortage of people chasing us along the way, so when that happens, find a chance to run out the ‘Scroll of Heaven’ and let those hyenas have their fun.”
Finding Xuan Lin, seizing a scripture, and then pretending to unintentionally reveal her tracks and throwing out the “Scroll of Heaven” under heavy pursuit was Jian Ji’s plan, and the main reason why she had replicated the Void Demon Mirror’s supernatural power before.
Without the magic mirror ability, even with their strength, they would not have been able to escape from all sides of the chase.
“Things that are too easily obtained are always unappreciated and can make people doubt the credibility of things. Only things they obtain after going through many dangers will make them truly at ease with their cultivation, or the kind that can’t be delayed.” Jian Ji laughed.
Apart from spreading the scripture, there was another purpose, and that was to lure certain people out. If the performance was not strong enough, there was no way to convince people of the authenticity of the scripture, as well as ——
convince them that Qing Yu was really injured.
The fact is that the people who are in charge of the project are all old foxes who are as cautious as they are, and they are never short of patience, so it is necessary to put on a show to lure them in and convince them that something is really wrong with Qing Yu.
“Let’s go and move on to the next scene.” Jian Ji said.
The two of them left the cave and rushed towards the next scene under the cover of the magic mirror of emptiness.
————————
“Xuan Lin has completed his mission, the ‘Scroll of Earth’ has been obtained by the Da Qian side, the first scene, it was perfect.”
On the shore of the Taiyuan Pond, Qing Yu sat on the ground with a board of chess in front of him; now, seven pieces had been played, both black and white.
The theft of the scriptures by Xuan Lin had been planned by Qing Yu from the very beginning.
Otherwise, Xuan Lin, who was only at the True Dan realm, would never have been able to free himself from Qing Yu’s mind-control spell, and the Scroll of Heaven and the Scroll of Earth would not have appeared in the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.
One must know that the secret scriptures produced by the system had been transmitted directly into Qing Yu’s mind by it. If Qing Yu had not written the scriptures down, where would the two scrolls of scriptures have come from?
Of course, for Xuan Lin, it was with his own hatred and unwillingness that he forced himself to break free from the mind-control spell. It was also the news he overheard that led him to sneak into the Tianxuan Pavilion late at night and steal the scriptures.
“Then, let’s start the next step. Let’s see how many people will show up this time ——”
With a soft laugh, Qing Yu dropped another piece.
