After the Skyfall

Chapter 582 Recruitment
As the saying goes, the first time you make a strong effort, the second time it will weaken, and the third time it will be exhausted.

At this moment, the four masters, Marquis Guanjun, General Tianwei, Taoist Qingsong, and Lord Heishan, came together. They originally made a great momentum, as if a punishment from heaven had come, shocking everyone. However, after a big fire, they lost their momentum. Not only did they become disgraced, but their arrogance was also shattered.

It can be said that the method of calling the wind and guarding against arrogance and impatience have made their eyes much clearer, they can no longer say some harsh words, and their condescending attitudes have also been restrained.

When he faced Master Taiyi again, his expression was solemn and he was alert.

"Who was the one who shouted 'Taiyi Demon Dao' in the clouds just now? I am a demon Dao, what are you? A dead person without a body, or a wood-turned-evil?" Li Yi looked coldly, holding the Prince Sword and scanning the few people: "You guys want to kill me? I don't know where you got the courage from."

"Well, today I will be kind enough to send you guys on your way, so that you won't be restless in the future and parade around with gongs and drums."

As he spoke, he also glanced at these people, to see who would be best to kill first when the fight started.

"Master Taiyi, you have such strength, why do you betray the court and lead three thousand Jinyiwei to hunt down the gods of incense everywhere? Wouldn't it be better to be the high and mighty national teacher and enjoy the incense offerings from all over the world? As long as you are willing to bow your head, I am willing to take you back to admit your mistakes to His Majesty. I believe that Emperor Shenwu and Emperor Taizu will forgive your mistakes."

Champion Marquis Zhao Zhenshan spoke up. He knew in his heart that fighting with such a vicious man was not the best strategy. The best way was to surrender.

On the battlefield, if you cannot distinguish the strength of both sides, rashly starting a war will undoubtedly lead to your own destruction.

He is not a brainless and reckless man who only knows how to fight and kill. He can also bend and stretch at critical moments.

"Yes, if you are willing to stop the conquest, I am also willing to guarantee you." Taoist Qingsong also spoke immediately.

"Master Taiyi, you are indeed very strong, but it is impossible for you to fight the world alone. There are better ways to go, and you should choose a better way." General Tianwei also tried to persuade him, but the long sword in his hand was flashing with cold light and murderous aura, as if he was ready to take your life at any time.

Heishanjun on the side didn't say anything. In this situation, the more he said, the more mistakes he made.

After all, he came with a mission.

Li Yi laughed when he heard this, "How naive! You still want to surrender at this time. If I really agree, how will you report to the people behind the scenes? They want me to die. If I were still alive, many people would be worried. There is no point in saying more. A battle today is inevitable. Either you take my head and report back, or you, the gods of incense, disappear from this world from now on. There is no other way."

Several people's eyes flickered.

This is not wrong.

However, they were not sure they could defeat Master Taiyi. Even if they had a chance to win in the end, they would probably lose two or three people. But no one knew who would be taken along by Master Taiyi.

So it's a big risk.

As a person who has been worshipped as a god for a long time, he naturally does not want to die in confusion on this vast Taihu Lake.

"kill!"

However, they were afraid to take action, but Li Yi didn't let them down. He suddenly shouted, turned into a ray of golden light and rushed over to kill them. He just made a fist, and astonishing fist intent emanated. In a trance, he turned into an angry Buddha. At this moment, Taoism was running on the tip of his fist, and an ultimate brilliance was condensed on it.

A punch came at him, heading straight for the mighty general.

"So brave."

The general became furious when he saw this, because Li Yi attacked him because he undoubtedly thought he was the weakest and the easiest to bully, otherwise why didn't he attack others first.

Without hesitation, he raised the long sword in his hand, with incense entangled and the energy of heaven and earth gathered in just a moment, and a sword light that could tear through the sky appeared. Then the sword fell and chopped towards the fist light, wanting to defeat the opponent with one blow and decide the winner.

Faced with this feeling, the incense god known as the Supreme General of Heavenly Power did not dare to be careless in the slightest, let alone hold back on his strength.

boom!
The fist light collided with the sword light, and the residual power spread, sweeping up huge ripples, and even set off huge waves on the surface of Taihu Lake.

But then.

The blade light shattered with a loud bang, and an extreme fist light penetrated the blade and landed directly on the general.

Just one punch was enough to blast his body apart, but his body was not made of flesh and blood, but a golden body. The cracked body was a statue made of pieces of gold, but it was unknown how much incense power it had to give people the feeling of a flesh and blood body.

However, a figure appeared again from the shattered golden body. He gathered incense again and quickly put the shattered golden body together, and soon it recovered.

But the cracks on his face could never be erased.

"You blew up the golden statue of General Tianwei with just one punch? Let's attack together and don't hesitate any longer, otherwise we may all die here today." Champion Marquis Zhao Zhenshan was shocked and angry when he saw this scene. It was obvious that Master Taiyi was more ferocious than he had imagined, and the previous fire was not his full strength.

“At this point, this is the only way.” The Shoushan God, Taoist Qingsong gritted his teeth and took out a seal. It was carved from Shoushan stone and it had gathered countless incenses. It was already spiritual. He only needed to smash it down, and it would be like Shoushan falling down. No one in the world could resist it.

"go."

He threw the seal out, and the power of incense, mixed with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, turned into a phantom of a huge seal in the sky. Although it was not substantial, it had covered the sky. At this moment, it fell down, and in a trance it seemed as if a towering Longevity Mountain fell from the sky.

"Good." Champion Marquis Zhao Zhenshan was immediately delighted when he saw this.

This kind of method is truly extraordinary.

"He actually figured out the method of refining weapons. This Shoushan God must have some skills." When Li Yi saw the falling seal, he immediately thought of the Xuanhuang Seal he had used before. But it was precisely because he thought of the fate of the Xuanhuang Seal that he immediately took out a divine wooden bow from the Five Elements Bracelet.

The arrow was a golden arrow, which was a top-grade magic weapon.

There is no need to use black gold arrows to deal with the incense god of this world.

Draw the bow and nock the arrow.

The sounds of dragon roars and tiger howls were heard. Even with Li Yi's current cultivation level of the third level of the Five Qi Realm, he was unable to fully pull the bow. Perhaps only when his five qi converged, could he truly unleash the power of the bow.

But that's enough.

A golden arrow suddenly shot out.

The speed is so fast that it cannot be captured by the naked eye.

A hideous gash was torn between heaven and earth. In just a moment, the huge seal covering the sky suddenly exploded, turning into the power of incense that dissipated all over the sky. At the same time, the seal was directly shattered, turning into pieces of debris that splashed everywhere, fell into Taihu Lake, and disappeared in the lake water.

"My Shoushan Seal." Taoist Qingsong gritted his teeth when he saw this scene.

He simply couldn't believe that the Shoushan Seal, which he had been practicing for countless years and gathering incense and spiritual energy to become spiritual, was shattered by an arrow from Master Taiyi just as he took it out. His heart suddenly contracted, and he suffered a huge blow. He almost vomited blood.

"Don't show off this kind of junk." Li Yi said coldly.

But before he could finish his words, champion candidate Zhao Zhenshan had already rushed to Li Yi with a spear in hand in an instant. He thought that this attack would succeed, but when the spear landed on the Taoist Taiyi in front of him, an incredible scene happened.

The weapon that accompanied Marquis Guanjun in his conquest of the world was surprisingly fragile. It failed to pierce the red jade and purple gold armor of Taoist Taiyi. Instead, the spear tip broke and the spear body also shattered one after another.

"How is this possible?" Champion Zhao Zhenshan couldn't believe it.

But Li Yi understood.

Ordinary weapons are ordinary weapons after all. Only with the power of incense can they last for a thousand years, otherwise they would have rotted long ago. Only Taoist weapons are spiritual and can become extremely powerful with the power of incense. Other weapons have no way to fully bring out the power of incense.

That's the downside of this world.

The incense method can be used in combination with any other practice method; using it alone is a dead end.

Li Yi was too lazy to explain. He held the bow in one hand and clenched his fist with the other. The power of dragon and tiger burst out, three magical powers entangled, and he punched out.

The champion candidate was hit and retreated violently. In a blink of an eye, he was blown more than ten miles away, and his body kept breaking and peeling as he retreated. He was not a golden statue, but a clay sculpture. He only looked like a real person because he was tempered by incense and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

But after this punch, his body also collapsed and could not be maintained again.

"Damn it."

The champion candidate reunited with his relatives and revealed his true form. He looked at Taiyi Zhenren in the distance and for the first time felt a sense of powerlessness and frustration.

It's not enough that this guy is powerful, but his weapons and armor are also terrifyingly strong.

Moreover, long-range attacks, close combat, and human wave tactics are all useless. It was simply born for combat and has no shortcomings at all.

But this is natural. Li Yi practices many methods. Even if some of them have shortcomings, he has made up for them long ago. If there is one flaw in him now, it is that his soul has not yet transformed into a spirit, and he cannot leave his body and live forever in heaven and earth.
