Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

If the people of Qi were asked to vote on who is the most loyal minister to the court, then the Imperial Master would definitely be at the top of the list.

He had no wife, no children, no clothes, no earthenware, only a simple diet.

Since he received his first salary from the imperial court, he has dedicated almost every day, every drop of his true energy, and every piece of talisman and seal to Da Qi.

He is the most involved in official affairs among all the saints and strong men.

While other saints and powerful men were finding various excuses to shirk their duties from the imperial court, either for personal cultivation or to secretly plot rebellion, the Imperial Master was always running around trying to mend the country that was riddled with holes. .

The talismans and battle formations equipped by the Qi army were designed and drawn by a team led by the national master.

The Nine Infant Snake Demon was causing trouble in Youzhou, and it was the Imperial Master who sealed it.

After Gu Xu was wanted, he fled around the Qi territory. It was the imperial master who obeyed Princess Zhaoning's orders many times to pursue and intercept him.

Luo Chuan had ridiculed him before, saying that he didn't have the slightest bit of airs and arrogance that a strong saint should have.

The Imperial Preceptor retorted that as a minister of Da Qi, why should he care about those fictitious things? It is better to do more real things for the country and the king.

Of course, if the Imperial Master saw Luo Chuan's flattering look in front of Gu Xu recently, he would definitely say tit for tat: "Then where is your arrogance?"

It can be said that loyalty to Da Qi has been deeply engraved in the marrow of the Imperial Master and has become an instinct that requires no thought.

Because of this, when he saw that the life of the eldest prince Xiao Shangyuan was in danger, he rushed out immediately and killed Zhao Yan's powerful Faxiang, becoming the first saint to take action in this battle. .

Once a saint takes action, he will never stop.

As the master's fingers moved rapidly in the air, golden symbols appeared in the sky. The movement of the true energy of the practitioners within a hundred meters suddenly became stagnant. The monks flying in the sky were like birds with broken wings. Falling, the monk on the ground also found that he could no longer cast any spells and could only be slaughtered by the enemy.

The power of true energy is the source of security for practitioners.

When their true energy could not be used, but the enemy on the opposite side was making murderous moves and casting spells, panic immediately rose in their hearts.

Especially when they saw that their usually skilled companions were being slaughtered by the enemy like chickens.

Under the control of survival instinct, many people lose confidence and turn around and run away.

And the escape of these people disrupted the front line.

After all, Gu Xu's army was only formed recently. Gu Xu may be able to boost their morale, but after all, it is difficult to establish their discipline in a short period of time.

In just a short moment, the momentum of the northwest rebels' brave charge was easily suppressed by the national division.

The fire phoenix wings behind Zhao Yan also extinguished their light in an instant.

She fell rapidly from a high altitude, and when she was close to the ground, she managed to stabilize herself with the "one-foot-long power" of the spear.

…………

"The situation of the war has been reversed," the Imperial Master narrowed his eyes slightly and said silently in his heart, "Gu Xu, are you still unwilling to take action?"

Everything that happened before his eyes undoubtedly confirmed what the National Preceptor had just guessed.

The rebels are indeed deliberately stalling for time to cover up the fact that the top power is temporarily vacant.

......... "The Imperial Master has noticed our true and false intentions." Zhao Yan looked solemn and thought to herself secretly.

The fragmentation of the dharma image caused chaos in her body, causing Qi and blood to surge, causing bursts of pain from time to time.

She knew that from the intervention of the saints, ordinary soldiers and practitioners would become insignificant in this battle, and even she, a sixth-level monk, would be unable to influence the outcome.

"Gu Xu, I hope the trump card you left behind will work."

The seal left by Gu Xu before seclusion appeared in Zhao Yan's palm at this moment - it was made of ordinary material, looked nothing out of the ordinary, and did not exude any true energy.

Taking advantage of the imperial master's attention temporarily falling on other practitioners, Zhao Yan quickly landed on the ground. As Gu Xu had instructed, she left the seal with his name on the ground and stepped on it twice. foot.

There was only a "click" sound, and the seemingly solid seal instantly broke into countless pieces.

The fragments instantly melted into golden light, like fireflies, floating towards the incomplete city defense formation, and quickly repaired the defensive formation that had just been torn apart by the national division.

At the same time, Zhao Yan also felt the ground moving slightly.

Then the land bulged, the cracks spread, and a monster came out of the cracks with a "whoosh" sound.

This monster is greenish-grey in color and has a pair of wings. It looks like a weak but cute chick.

However, in the blink of an eye, this "chick" flapped its wings and soared into the sky. Its size also grew rapidly, and its feathers became harder and denser. It soon turned into a dark cloud that covered the sky, blocking the dazzling sunlight and shrouding the entire battlefield in shadow.

Every time it flaps its wings, it stirs up strong winds, causing dust to fly on the battlefield. The soldiers stagger around, and some even lose their balance and fall to the ground.

"Kunpeng!"

"It turned out to be Kunpeng!"

"The rebels are really crazy, they actually brought Kunpeng to the battlefield!!!"

"..."

The appearance of Dapeng frightened the Qi army.

None of them have ever been to Beiming and seen a living Kunpeng. They only learned from books that there is a big bird in the world that is "not known to be thousands of miles away" and has "wings like clouds hanging from the sky" that can fly through clouds. , carrying the blue sky on its back, straight up to an altitude of 90,000 miles.

Because the description in the book was too exaggerated, they once doubted whether Kunpeng really existed in the world or whether it was just a fantasy in the dreams of the ancients.

But today, when Kunpeng appeared in front of everyone with earth-shattering momentum, everyone was stunned. They couldn't believe their eyes, let alone believe that a mythical monster like Kunpeng could be driven by people to fight.

Kunpeng is a creature born in the chaos of heaven and earth. It does not have much intelligence and can only act on instinct.

On the battlefield, it will naturally not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, and will only instinctively deal with the most threatening enemy in front of it.

The enemy that is most likely to threaten it at this time is undoubtedly the Da Qi Imperial Master who has fully displayed the power of a saint.

So it flapped its wings, converging the surging airflow from all directions, forming a strong whirlwind, like thousands of sharp swords piercing the air, trying to tear the national master suspended in the air into powder.

The expression on the Imperial Master's face instantly became extremely gloomy.

The whirlwind came so fast that he had no time to draw the talismans out of thin air. He could only take out more than ten pre-drawn talisman seals from his sleeves and throw them into the air, turning them into an invisible light shield, spreading the power like thousands of troops. The rushing whirlwind was blocked outside. (End of chapter)
