Xuanjian Xianzu

Chapter 1038 Killing Formation

The river is surging.

The riverbank was covered in yellow robes. Several teams of cavalrymen in red armor galloped past, splashing mud and water. Their long whips flew, whipping the monks on both sides and forcing them to flee in all directions.

When the soldiers arrived at the foot of the high platform, there was a golden statue on each side. One was red in color and rode a tiger, and the other had a kind face and five eyes. He let them pass without hesitation. The five-eyed figure had a pity face and no expression, and sat there blankly:

'God damn Minghui!'

Wumu has been practicing in the north for many years. What happened on the lake that year was like a dream, which always made him nervous. Therefore, he has been trying his best to avoid going south in recent years. His strength has been preserved intact. He is much more comfortable than Chi Luo on the other side. But today he is very unhappy and even panicked:

'What's this? I want to go to the lake!'

He had no ambitions, he just wanted to live a comfortable and prosperous life, and he was absolutely unwilling to do something that could easily lead to his death. He raised his eyebrows and saw Chi Luo was leisurely, and he was so angry that he said:
"idiot!"

Chi Luo looked at him with his eyebrows downcast, sneering:

"Why...Fellow Daoist Wumu is so scared? There are great benefits to going south this time. With an elder leading the way, even if martial arts training is the priority and the massacre fails, killing Li Zhouwei's prestige and seizing the immortal artifact are all good business."

Wumu looked at him askance and replied:
"I'm sorry you've practiced for a hundred years, but you've only become stupid. How can we have a chance to enjoy the good things in the world? Do you think that by killing Bai Lin's prestige... you can make further progress in the land of Buddhism? Did that Nuzi Maha... rely on someone's prestige to get to the top? Whose prestige did Xuwang kill to be able to sit on your head now?"

Wumu's contemptuous eyes made Chi Luo frown and remain silent. He had been at odds with this man for a long time, but after several battles, Wumu stayed out of it and handled it with ease, which made him believe in the ability of this old senior who had survived from the Daliang Dynasty to the present.

"In Buddhism, it is important to have a background... If you don't have a background, you shouldn't fight..."

He frowned in thought, but heard a noise. A strong wind blew over the high platform, and a man fell down with the wind. The armor on his body shone brightly, and he held a short-handled red axe in his hand. The scar on his face moved as he spoke:
"Master Minghui!"

Wumu's eyelids twitched, and he saw that damn Minghui coming in a light, with a white face that was round and plump, like a highly accomplished Taoist. The Maha clothing behind him was similar to his, but he was older and taller, and he frowned and said nothing.

Minghui returned the gift and said with a smile:

"Meet General Gongsun..."

This person was Gongsun Bei.

General Gongsun was quite friendly and nodded, but Minghui said:
"I heard that the general has a treasure in his hand. The war is imminent, so he has to talk to us... I'm afraid that by then we won't know the ins and outs of the matter and it will delay things!"

Gongsun Bei stroked his beard slightly, and suddenly felt that this made sense, so he nodded and said:

"it is good!"

For a moment, almost everyone's eyes were focused on Gongsun Bei. The general held a red axe in one hand and raised the other hand slightly forward, and a small platform appeared in his palm.

The platform is light yellow in color, like a pile of earth and rocks, but only the size of a palm, with iron locks and horizontal railings, a high platform standing tall, dotted with clouds of all sizes, looking extremely delicate. If you look closely, you can vaguely see two small tridents inserted on the circular platform in the center, and every pattern is clearly visible.

Gongsun Bei sighed:
"This item is the [Xiguang Fenyi Treasure Platform], which was bestowed by Zhixuan Yixie. I borrowed it today for use. It is an extremely high-level spiritual treasure that is not afraid of water, fire, lightning, wind, sand, clouds and smoke. Once it is sacrificed, there will be millions of Xiguang in the sky and the Fenyi Treasure Platform on the ground, trapping and killing the enemy."

"When the spirit is running and the magic is pushed to the extreme, the short spear on the platform will jump out and fall like thunder, smashing the skull and making people lose consciousness."

Gongsun Bei said solemnly:

"I have tried this thing. It consumes my magical power like running water. An ordinary person can't handle it. Its power is terrifying!"

"this…"

Minghui was startled by what he said and asked:
"I wonder if there are any taboos or weaknesses?"

Gongsun Bei was silent for a moment, and replied vaguely:
"'Xiqi' is nothing more than that. I don't think you have so many magical methods. Just use less 'Suiqi' and 'Lushui'..."

The five eyes looked anxious, but little did they know that Minghui on the stage was also thinking quickly:

"I don't know what Qi Lanyan is up to. Why is he making such a fuss?"

"According to the order from the north, a Buddhist monk was supposed to lead people through the wilderness to attack Lixia. I have already asked my brother to take on this mission... This will also help to reduce the number of casualties and also meet the request of Damu Dharma Realm..."

And he Minghui had already arranged with Mingxiang. Mingxiang went all the way south and made trouble in Lixia! He was ready to withdraw to the north at any time and didn't care about the things on the lake anyway.

"According to your opinion, Li Ximing's magical power can easily deal with me. If you bring these two mercies with you and delay for a while, you will be besieged by Gongsun Bei and Dai Xi... Although this treasure is extremely powerful, he also has a magical treasure in his hand, so he should be able to hold on..."

"What's more, some people from the south should come to help..."

He made arrangements secretly, and looking in a good mood, he said leisurely:
"Look at the weather, it's a good time to fight!"

On the other side, the horse-faced Maha had an ugly appearance and gloomy eyes, and ignored him completely.

"Maha is in a good mood."

The Zhao general Gongsun Bei responded to Minghui casually, taking care of Dai Xi's emotions, and whispered:
"The Great Master has been away from the palace for many years, stationed in the south all year round. Several noble families have talked about it... They miss him very much and are waiting for the Great Master to return to the palace, and they are talking about visiting him together."

Dai Xi had practiced in the palace of Great Zhao before, so he was obviously more familiar with these Great Zhao families. He was also friends with Gongsun Bei, the leader of the Zhao family faction, so he would not offend him and shook his head.
"I'll have to trouble you again, General, regarding matters on the lake."

Minghui turned her head with a sneer, while Gongsun Bei said in a deep voice:

"It's alright. I'm heading south today on the orders of the Immortal Master. I've made preparations. You don't have to worry."

This made Dai Xi secretly relieved, while Ming Hui felt a chill in her heart:

"Qi Lanyan and the other families have reached a consensus on interests. What kind of tricks are they preparing?"

But just as he took a step, there was a sound in the void, and a snow-white Dharma body appeared and landed on the stage, revealing a middle-aged monk with a serious face. Behind him followed a group of compassionate people, who bowed and said:

"I am Yanbai, and I am honored to meet you all!"

Minghui was shocked for a moment and looked up at him. Gongsun Bei was slightly surprised and asked:
"Master Yanbai? What happened?"

The middle-aged monk clasped his hands together and said calmly:

"I was ordered by Dayangshan to replace Mingxiang in managing the wilderness. I have already been to Xuanmiao Temple and reported my duties to Qi Lanyan. He told Master Mingxiang that there was no need to go back to report, and that we should go together to attack Wangyue Lake."

"... "

After these words were spoken, Minghui was silent for a moment, and the five eyes below felt their scalps tingling.

'Then now it is Lotus One Minghui, Three Daixi, Four Mingxiang, and the key is this Gongsun Bei of the middle stage of Zifu... Why did this person come? Damn it! '

Wumu felt extremely uneasy, those of them sitting under the Golden Lotus Seat were all capable of holding back a Purple Mansion with magical powers, and Dai Xi and Ming Hui were no ordinary people either. Ming Xiang was comparable to a mid-stage Purple Mansion. If only Shi Xiu took action, he would still have some hope, but with the addition of Gongsun Bei, it would be a qualitative change, it would not be an exaggeration to say that there were three mid-stage Purple Mansions, not to mention that the general had a magical treasure in his hand that specifically treated Ming Yang!

He didn't care what happened to Bai Qilin, he was afraid that the adult would leave a backup plan and ask him to sacrifice himself!

"If I really want to turn against them... it won't help the situation much... I'm afraid I'll just sacrifice my life in vain. Qi is such a jerk, making a fuss out of nothing!"

'The Lotus Temple is indeed unreliable. This is really strange... Qi Lanyan is a Taoist who cultivates himself in the mountains and does not care about worldly matters. His previous arrangements to go south were like a joke, but now he has such a plan? I have seen a ghost!'

Wumu was thinking hard about countermeasures. Minghui suddenly realized something, and his heart suddenly sank. He smiled and said:

"We have already arranged the manpower for the attack on Wangyue. We are touched by Fellow Daoist Qi's concern, but I am afraid that we don't have enough manpower!"

Yan Bai didn't have a good face towards Dai Xi, but because of the private agreement between the two to avoid hurting mortals, he had some affection for Ming Hui. He didn't show it, but was not polite at all. He put his hands together and said lightly:
"It's not that I'm concerned. Qi Lanyan listened to the report from the Great Yuan Guangyin Temple and said that the Lotus Temple was always compromising and was not fit for any major task. He was worried that the Taoist Ming Xiang was trying to protect himself and was pretending to obey but actually disobeying the order."

As soon as these words were spoken, Minghui's eyes became gloomy, and Mingxiang's face became even more stern.

In fact, Qi Lanyan's guess was correct. These two brothers were trying to take advantage of the situation, but it was not decent to be exposed like this. Minghui could not blame the man in front of her for being so straightforward, and cursed in her heart:
"Qi Lanyan...Qi Lanyan—son of a bitch Qi Lanyan!"

He thought about it over and over again, but he couldn't understand it at all. His position was higher, so his suspicions were from a different angle:

"What is Qi Lanyan going crazy about? He governed Xuanxie to serve the mountain... But did the mountain do it for Li Zhouwei's death? How is that possible! He must let this adult go step by step and try to impact the fruit position - you Qi Lanyan suddenly want to kill him and injure him now... Is it in the interests of the mountain! "

Minghui racked her brains but still couldn't figure it out.

All cultivators have their own motives. As a cultivator of the Great Zhao Palace, why is Gongsun Bei so enthusiastic about going south? Why did he make such careful preparations? It is because Gongsun Bei cultivates Xiqi, and can benefit from it by imitating the way Xiqi destroyed Mingyang in the past. He also has a desire to seek liberation, so he is more interested in killing Mingyang...

If it was one or two eighth-generation or ninth-generation Buddhist monks who wanted to kill Li Zhouwei, he could fully understand the idea of ​​taking his fate, so why did Qi Lanyan come to join in the fun? You have to know that Wei Xuanyin has always been following the orders from the mountain to use Mingyang to lure the movements of the Buddhists!
'Something must have changed his mind...'

Dai Xi, who was standing by, laughed with glee, thinking that the other party's plan to murder him had failed. He strolled leisurely with his hands behind his back, making sarcastic remarks from time to time, but Minghui paid no attention to his thoughts.

Yan Bai followed the order and went south, which completely disrupted Minghui's plan. The cultivators were not blind, and Mingxiang's joining would definitely change the situation overwhelmingly. No matter how much they let him off, it would be difficult to deal with him! What's more, Mingxiang didn't understand the problem at all. Once the fight became intense, he would definitely not hold back!

Gongsun Bei's face brightened with Ming Xiang's joining. He nodded to his fellow apprentices in a very friendly manner, without any delay, and said:

"Please take the lead. I will hold the treasure in Taixu. I will definitely gain the upper hand and suppress this beast with one strike!"

Ming Xiang nodded in agreement, and took the lead to ride the wind. He was eager to try. Ming Hui felt overwhelmed and even more frightened:

"Besides... after Yan Bai has dealt with Li Xia, or has been forced back to the south, he is very likely to come to the lake to provide assistance..."

……

"Dong dong dong..."

The loud sound of military drums echoed above the river, and countless shouts of killing rose into the sky. The man in black stood on the shore, looking into the distance at the Dharma body that was as huge as a mountain and was floating in the clouds.

The swaying light poured down in the white mist, making the shouts of killing below seem even smaller, so a huge thing was seen stretching out its hands and feet, and a holy and bright golden head emerged, with its big mouth buzzing:
"Ming Xiang of the Lotus Temple, greetings to the donor!"

This sound caused the sky to be filled with light and overlapping colors. The man in black looked solemn, standing with his hands behind his back, with even more murderous intent in his eyes.

"Boom!"

The two golden palms that fell from the sky were bound by the vigorous, silky bright sunlight. Li Zhouwei stretched out his hand, and as the rolling purple flames spread, he drew out a halberd!
But in an instant, a bowl appeared, and the familiar purple-black light bloomed again, and the fire of karma blew out from it. Li Zhouwei looked at it with cold eyes:

"Ya Xi..."

Dai Xi looked straight into his eyes and subconsciously dodged a few times. Then he reacted and became furious. The magical power in his hands became even brighter and he started cursing!
"You beast! You still dare to resist!"

A giant green and yellow umbrella spun open from behind him, and the light of the [Hundred-Ribbon Black Stone Umbrella] resisted all the karmic fire one by one. He raised his halberd, turned around, and with a clang, he picked up a golden sword from the void.

"Boom!"

Ming Xiang's gold weapon had been accumulated for a long time, and when it collided with him, he was not at a disadvantage for a while. The rolling purple fire spread out, and golden bodies appeared on Li Zhouwei's left and right. One of them was riding a red tiger, and one of them had five eyes on his body, all of which were terrifying. One of them held his halberd, and the other used his magic to lock the tail of the halberd.

Li Zhouwei felt the stagnant force coming from the halberd, and he knew that both of them were sitting on the lotus seat!
The sky at the highest point suddenly opened up, and the long-accumulated wisdom emerged. He held a mirror in his hand, raised it above his head, and thick colorful light poured down, right at his forehead!

Li Zhouwei was not at all flustered. He grabbed the halberd with his big hands and exerted force. Golden patterns appeared on his arms, which made the two pitiful people on his left and right change their expressions. However, his gaze pierced through the countless smoke and dust and pierced Minghui's eyes directly.

This glance made Minghui break out in a cold sweat, but a sinister smile appeared on his face.

But before he could utter a few harsh words, and before Dai Xi's words [Beast! You dare to resist!] had time to dissipate from the sky, a rolling sound wave transmitted by magical power followed closely behind, continuing the meaning, and spreading through the void, sounding cold and vicious:
"All the cultivators are here today, how can we allow you to be so rampant!"

It is the five eyes of pity!

This voice of supernatural power made Minghui overjoyed. He even felt a little strange in his heart. He laughed with mysterious sounds in his mouth:

"That's right! When the immortals and monks come together, they will make you perish in the lake!"

After these words came out, Wumu swallowed silently. Gongsun Bei in Taixu looked unhappy. He looked at Daixi on the left, Wumu on the right, and Minghui again. He hesitated to speak, and frowned:
'These guys are too arrogant...none of them are trustworthy! There's really no need to say this.'

"Boom!"

A bright light had already shone in the void. Dasheng swept out, first sweeping away the five eyes, and raised his long spear to block the colorful light pouring down!
He faced the powerful but scattered light with a cold look in his eyes. He calmly turned away his gaze from Minghui. The Immortal Mirror had already roughly swept across the void and discovered the Gongsun Stele that was ready to go!

"Jin Yu's reminder is not without reason... What a big scene."
