Inside the general’s residence in Feiyun Pa*s, Xu Tiecheng bowed respectfully to the white-haired Daoist, “Greetings, Daoist Master Qing Yu.”
“No need to be polite,” said Qing Yu, waving his hand, “The 50,000 elite soldiers led by Wang Yuehe are still on their way, so the poor Taoist arrived one step ahead.”
“General Xu, you are also an old acquaintance of the poor Taoist. When you first came to Feiyun Pa*s, it was you who personally took the poor Taoist to inspect Feiyun Pa*s. Now, I ask you, do you have the determination to serve His Majesty and the Dao of Poverty to the death?”
“If you give me an order, I will die.” Xu Tiecheng knelt down on one knee and said.
“I hope you will remember today’s words.”
The green sword qi came out of Qing Yu’s hand and flew into Xu Tie Cheng’s brow. The most yin and evil sword qi flew to transform Xu Tie Cheng’s physique, making it more compatible with the sword qi.
Compared to the other hosts who received the sword qi, Xu Tie Cheng was more powerful and took longer. Of course, the strength that can be brought into play then is also greater.
“This is the power that Poverty Dao has bestowed upon you, in the future, you should collect the essence blood for Poverty Dao properly.”
As he was speaking, Qing Yu suddenly had to look to the north, “There is the aura of the Tong Shen realm, it seems that it wants to explore the Flying Cloud Pa*s first.”
Feiyun Pa*s had swallowed more than 100,000 gra*sland troops in the last battle and could be considered a great enemy of the gra*sland. This time, when Northern Zhou took the initiative to attack the gra*sland, the Golden Wolf Khanate would certainly not fail to react.
Wang Yuehe’s 50,000-strong army would not be moving too quietly, and the gra*slanders’ spies would have detected it. In order to deal with the rare initiative of Northern Zhou’s attack, the opponent’s Tong Shen realm powerhouse would definitely be there.
And this, too, was Qing Yu’s aim.
”If there is the essence blood of a Tong Shen realm powerhouse, it will at least allow the body to grow to eight or nine years old.”
————————
A mile outside of the Flying Cloud Pa*s, a burly figure stood in the air, looking at the deep sinkhole below.
Here, was the deep pit created when Qing Yu tested the Submerged Dragon, and it was also the main purpose for this figure to come outside the Flying Cloud Pa*s.
“The Submerged Dragon, is it really ruined?”
Hefeng Sa closed his eyes, and it was as if the figure that had caused over 100,000 people to wail and die horribly before his eyes had never left.
The Submerged Dragon, the great killing weapon of the Northern Zhou, was an unforgettable nightmare for the gra*slanders. Although the Tong Shen realm did not fear this weapon, how many Tong Shen realms were there in the world.
As long as one dragged and stalled all the Tong Shen realms, then the Subterranean Dragon could exterminate all the rest of the enemies with impunity.
“The scouts report that those Daoists who developed the Subterranean Dragon are researching a new weapon behind closed doors in the Divine Capital, and I wonder how powerful this new weapon should be compared to the Subterranean Dragon?” Hopefun Sa murmured.
In fact, with shamans scouting for water, the Subterranean Dragon, if it existed, would not be able to be activated again. However, the senior officials of the Golden Wolf Court were still unsure and sent Hefun Sa to investigate.
Once bitten by a snake, the gra*slanders were afraid that there would be another weapon like the Dragon hidden at Feiyun Pa*s, and the Golden Wolf could not afford to lose the next 150,000 troops.
With this in mind, Hefeng Sa flew into the deep sinkhole, his figure slowly enveloped by darkness.
The last attack by the Subterranean Dragon contained fluctuations of earth qi, so the Grand Shaman surmised that if there were other weapons similar to the Subterranean Dragon in Northern Zhou, they should be weapons that used earth qi as a method of attack.
Such weapons must be hidden underground, and if one were to trace them through the underground waterways, one might be able to find out a little clue.
“Into the ground?”
Qing Yu’s figure flashed in the air, looking at the breath that had disappeared into the depths of the sinkhole.
Since a Tong Shen realm had come over to explore, how could Qing Yu not go and meet him. If he could kill him, Qing Yu would have made the trip worthwhile.
“Is this going to scout for the existence of the Subterranean Dragon?” Qing Yu said with some tears and laughter.
Even he had given up using the Subterranean Dragon in the interior, but he did not expect that the Gra*slanders still harboured such deep scruples about this weapon, and had allowed the Tong Shen realm to personally enter the land to scout it out.
Qing Yu did not know that the gra*slanders were scornful of more than just the Subterranean Dragon, but also the weapon that the Grand Shaman speculated used the earth’s qi.
If he had known, Qing Yu would probably have laughed even more bitterly.
Earth Qi was not as good as water flow to make use of, and it would take at least five years to create the Earth Dragon without Qing Yu himself to develop it.
During this period of time, the development of the Earth Dragon had been stuck at a certain bottleneck, and Gu Dan and the others were worried about it.
The gra*sland scouts thought that Gu Dust and the others must have made great gains from their long closed-door research. But in reality, Gu Dust and the others had spent most of their time scratching their heads, scratching their hair out.
“This is perhaps heaven’s will.”
In the end, Qing Yu thought this and flew into the celestial pit.
Heaven’s will had destined that this Tong Shen realm who had come to explore would die here.
————————
Deep inside the Sixth Sect of the Great Qian, within an exquisite small garden.
Qin Xihai wandered from side to side in front of the small pavilion in the garden, occasionally glancing worriedly at the hut not far away.
There, was where Ning Wuming was in retreat. He had already been in seclusion in there for half a year.
Recently, the heaven and earth Yuan Qi in the small garden had suddenly started to move differently, constantly converging towards the hut. However, today, the Qi movement suddenly dissipated, causing people who were concerned about Ning Wuming to feel uneasy and come to investigate.
However, they did not dare to barge in directly. What if they barged in and found out that Ning Wuming was still at a critical moment?
Although the hut looked ordinary, it had more than ten formations to shield the inside and outside, plus protection. If you want to break in, you will have to break the formation, and the noise will definitely affect the interior of the house.
The more Qin Xihai thought about it, the more anxious he became, so he stopped and said to another big man in the pavilion who was sleeping with his eyes closed, “Brother Leng, what should we do?”
Leng Rantou opened his eyes and said comfortingly, “Calm down, the only one Wu Ming can rely on now is himself, it’s useless for us to rush.”
It was useless to rush, breaking through the Tong Shen was either life or death, outsiders could not help.
“Now that my righteous father has gone to Jeju to help quell the chaos, otherwise I could still ask him what this is all about? I ——”
As he was speaking, a strange aura was suddenly born in the house. Obviously there were spell formations separating the inside and outside, but Qin Xihai still sensed that perfect and flawless aura.
“Flawless, it’s back ——” muttered Leng Mad Tu.
“Creak–”
The spell formation suddenly failed, the hut door slowly opened, and a young figure marched out from inside the house.
This young figure was naturally Ning Wuming, who was in seclusion, but it was a bit inappropriate to call him “Wuming” at this time.
It was because those eyes, which had been dull and lost in thought, were now glowing again with the spirit of life.
When one advances to the Tong Shen realm, the True Elixir and the body merge, and the martial artist will have a chance to reorganise his body. Ning Wuming had apparently used this opportunity to repair his eyes and return to light once more.
