After the Skyfall

Chapter 562 Meeting
The appearance of various strange phenomena in the sky above the capital city is incredible.

Two arrows streaked across the sky, illuminating the night and stirring up the energy of heaven and earth. Their power was so strong that almost all the practitioners in the capital could sense it. No one could have imagined that the national defender Wang Qijun would be shot to pieces by two arrows, his body exploded, and he had no power to fight back. He didn't even have the courage to gather incense again, so he planned to flee in all directions.

I thought the battle was over.

What was even more shocking was that a huge fire broke out, covering an area of ​​100 miles, and burned Wang Qijun to ashes in one breath.

Even now, the sky is still red, and the scorching air is spreading everywhere. Even the climate has changed. The entire capital city has suddenly entered midsummer, and people are sweating profusely.

In the imperial palace, inside the Yongchang Hall.

The emperor who was training his son also sensed the change in the energy of heaven and earth outside. He stopped talking immediately, his expression moved slightly, and he walked out of the palace with the gait of a dragon and a tiger. His pair of golden vertical pupils explored the energy of heaven and earth, and his expression moved slightly.

"Roar!"

Behind him, a black tiger stirred up a gust of wind and also rushed out of the palace. Its fur stood on end and it lay on the ground growling, showing a strong sense of anxiety and uneasiness.

"Is Wang Qijun, the northern guardian general, dead?" The emperor's originally expressionless face revealed a hint of surprise.

He knew that the God of Incense was the hardest to kill.

Especially the guardian god, who has gone through twelve dynasties and guarded the capital for hundreds of years. His popularity and profound background are unimaginable. It can be said that he is second only to Yin Tianzi near the capital. If he wants to kill such a god, he must first determine the crime, remove his deity, and then kill him, otherwise it will be difficult to eradicate him completely.

Because as long as there are statues of the gods in this world and people worship them, there will be a spiritual power, and the guardian gods will be able to recover quickly.

Although he wanted to move these guardian gods, the situation was not yet favorable. He still needed to use these guardian gods to destroy the monsters and conquer the disobedients.

"Has the spiritual practice on Earth become so prosperous? Such magic cannot be performed by ordinary people. It seems to be performed by a master in a certain spiritual world." The emperor sensed the changes in the energy of heaven and earth, and could not help but marvel at the wind-calling technique. After savoring it carefully, he felt that this magic was more exquisite.

If you master this kind of magic, you can defeat the strong with the weak, defeat the majority with the few, and kill enemies above your level.

"Father, Father, that is Taoist Taiyi casting a spell. I have seen his magic. He swallows the energy of heaven and earth and spits out a breath of fire that covers a city in an instant. It can turn night into day and winter into summer." At this time, Prince Xin hurriedly followed out. When he saw the raging fire covering the sky in the distance, he hurriedly spoke.

This Taoist Taiyi is truly arrogant. He even dares to cast spells in such an important place as the capital.

"Your Majesty, Jinyiwei Commander Lu Bin is reporting in."

Suddenly, at this moment, a Jinyiwei came rushing over. He was wet and injured, but even so, he did not dare to delay for a moment and went straight into the palace. However, he was stopped by the golden-eyed guard on the side.

"Let him come over." The emperor waved his hand.

Jinyiwei Commander Lu Bin took a few quick steps, then knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, Taoist Taiyi refused to enter the palace to meet His Majesty, and then the Northern Protector of the Nation General Wang Qijun suddenly appeared in Xianghu and fought with Taoist Taiyi over the incense. I am incompetent and unable to stop him. Please punish him, Your Majesty."

The emperor remained silent, just continued to gaze into the distance. Suddenly, he smiled dumbly: "It seems that he wants me to go and see him. The palace is very strict, and the dragon and tiger auras are the heaviest. They have the greatest impact on those who practice Taoism. If I rashly go there in person, I'm afraid I will encounter danger and it will be difficult to escape. Yes, he is indeed cautious. No wonder he can cross the border to survive."

"Lu Bin, you should retreat and rest. This is not your fault. With your level of cultivation, getting involved in this kind of battle between immortals and gods is no doubt a death wish."

He waved his hand, signaling Commander Lu Bin to step back.

“Rui'er, you stay in Yongchang Palace. If anyone comes to see you, you can send Lord Heishan to drive them out. Except for the Golden Eyed Guards and Concubine De, don't let anyone enter or leave my bedroom.” After the emperor finished speaking, he slowly took off into the air, and his entire body flew up to the clouds, and then disappeared in a flash.

"how come."

Prince Xin, who was about to accept the order, opened his eyes wide at this moment.

He couldn't imagine when his father had achieved such a level of accomplishment.

Didn't the emperors of all dynasties have no way to cultivate immortality? Only after death can they enjoy incense and worship and become the Son of Heaven.

"Prince Xin, the palace is heavily guarded, and you are not allowed to shout." Wang Ning, the golden-eyed guard at the side, suddenly reminded him.

The emperor's cultivation of Taoism was successful, and the top leaders of the Golden Eye Guard and the Embroidered Uniform Guard knew about it.

Therefore, up to now, this news is still confidential and is kept strictly secret, so no news has been leaked out until now. This is also the reason why after the emperor ascended the throne, he spent more and more time in the palace and lived a secluded life.

Prince Xin quickly shut up, fearing that his loud voice might leak out some confidential information.

"I will return to Yongchang Palace." He did not dare to hesitate and immediately turned around and entered Yongchang Palace.

He knew it.

My duty tonight is to pretend to be my father and let others know that the emperor is still in the palace and has not left. And Heishan Jun and Jintong Wei are the support my father left for me.

And in the capital city.

After the battle was quickly concluded, Li Yi looked around, and everything was quiet wherever he passed. Those eyes that were spying on him all shrank back at this moment, and the other gods who were originally preparing to show up also left quickly at this time, not getting involved in the dispute, and other monsters avoided it as much as possible.

A national guardian general was defeated, who would dare to provoke the Taiyi Immortal who had just arrived in the capital?

"Just as imagined, only a quick victory can intimidate the enemy." Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. He seemed to have won easily, but in fact he had used all means possible.

Without the magic bow and arrows in his hands, he would have no way of defeating the guardian general.

After all, neither of the two arrows killed him. If he continued to waste time, his strength would no longer be there and something unexpected would happen.

And Li Yi had no intention of leaving this area.

Here, his Taoist magic had little effect, but it was not the same in other places.

Looking at the devastation and collapsed houses.

Li Yi didn't say much. He just stretched out his hand and pointed, performing the house-building technique.

In an instant, stone houses rose from the ground. Although they were not exquisite, they were sturdy and durable and could last for hundreds of years.

As the river flowed upstream, he grabbed a painted boat stranded on the street and threw it into the lake. Then he dropped from the sky and landed in the boat. He sat with his eyes closed, absorbing the energy of heaven and earth to restore the magic power he had previously consumed.

The nearby Jinyiwei who were soaked by the lake water came out from all directions, still in shock. They looked at the painted boat in the center of the lake with its lights still on, their expressions were extremely solemn.

"Evacuate the people here as quickly as possible. No one is allowed to approach the area within three miles of here." A captain of the Jinyiwei watched for a while and gave the order immediately.

Such a ferocious Taoist priest must not be provoked. Moreover, His Majesty had previously ordered the Taoist priest to enter the palace. Now that the Taoist priest has refused the imperial edict, no one knows what will happen next. All he can do is to ensure that the information here is blocked to prevent rumors from spreading and shaking people's hearts.

However, Li Yi in the painting boat was quite surprised at this moment.

Because at this time he felt the increasingly powerful power of incense and faith converging towards him.

Obviously, this power of faith and belief was due to the battle just now.

He displayed his Taoist magic and defeated the guardian general. When the news spread, he would inevitably be known as the Taiyi Immortal. With the belief in people, he could gather the faith of the people even without burning incense or worshipping.

"With so much power of incense and faith, it will be no problem for me to open the twenty-four major acupoints." Li Yi was a little happy. This was an unexpected gain.

But just when he was about to use the power of the incense to practice.

Suddenly, his expression changed and he looked in one direction.

A powerful aura was approaching this side rapidly.

The aura was in harmony with heaven and earth, like a dragon or a tiger, and the incense was so strong that it looked like a big sun rising in the darkness. In addition, Li Yi also sensed the vigorous blood and vitality, which indicated that the other party was not a god of incense, but a master who had entered the practice of cultivation and was extremely powerful.

"Who will it be?"

Li Yi immediately became alert. He didn't expect that in this world where people become gods through worshipping incense, there is actually such a person hidden.

soon.

The man then swayed and landed on the bow of the boat.

This is a middle-aged man in his thirties, handsome and majestic, with a pair of golden vertical pupils that sparkle. He is wearing a black and gold robe, and he exudes the aura of an emperor. He does not look like a cultivator, but more like an emperor.

However, Li Yi did not know this person.

However, when Li Yi was looking at the other person, the middle-aged man was also looking at Li Yi.

Seeing Li Yi wearing red jade and purple gold armor, holding a magic bow, looking heroic and handsome, like a god descending from heaven, the emperor who came out of the palace showed a bit of surprise in his eyes. He looked at the face that was somewhat strange yet familiar, and unknowingly overlapped with the child in his memory.

"Who are you?" Li Yi asked calmly. He was ready to take action at any time.

As long as the opponent shows a hint of murderous intent, the black gold arrow in his five elements bracelet will be used immediately.

"I am the current emperor and your father, Xiaoyi. Long time no see. I never thought that one day I would see you here." The man said, he was a little excited.

But Li Yi remained alert: "I'm still your father. You want to claim your relationship with just one sentence? Tell me, what's your name?"

The man couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "My name is Li Jiye. This is my name on Earth. You know this, but I also have another name in this world, Zhao Chengqian."
