Knife splashing

Chapter 408: Wudang Mountain Murder

"Do it!"

Without any hesitation, the three people from Zhenwu Palace waved the magic flag at the same time.

Setting up an ambush here was not a spur of the moment decision, but they had already checked the intelligence map and made divinations on the way here.

Troops had already been deployed around the area and were hidden using the Qimen Dunjia technique.

The French flag waved, and the mountains and plains were immediately covered with flying sand and rocks. The sound of armor surging, the neighing of horses, and the sound of the wind merged into one...

The only thing is that the person giving the orders was not the Wudang headmaster Yu Chanzi, but the old man beside him.

Unfortunately, the people of Tiansheng Sect didn’t see it at all.

"It's soldiers! Run apart!"

Upon seeing this, Master Huang Liu shouted loudly.

The method of summoning soldiers and horses is possessed by the orthodox sects and lineages of the Xuanmen sect, and even some smaller sects have similar techniques.

To deal with this kind of thing, either you start a war and send troops, or both sides set up their positions to see which side has stronger foundation.

Either they make arrangements in advance, or use the Qimen Dunjia to avoid searches by troops, or they hide in a blessed place and use the innate evil spirits of famous mountains and rivers to suppress the strength of the troops.

In short, don't be unprepared.

Not to mention that they are still on the run, even if they were in full force, they cannot compare to the powerful Wudang Mountain, so they can only flee.

Dispersed escape is the best option.

The others were not fools either. They dispersed immediately, using either the magic of speed or the magic of escape to run towards the mountains in the south.

The first ones to suffer misfortune were several guardians of the Tiansheng Sect.

Some of them came from the Tiansheng Sect, but most of them were evil cultivators who had fled to the mountains and forests of Jingxiang and were later recruited by the Tiansheng Sect.

The bad reputation of Tiansheng Sect in recent years is related to them.

Two of them had not been able to escape properly and had not run for long when they were enveloped by the dark fog from behind and started screaming miserably.

As if their necks were tied with invisible ropes, they struggled and were hung in the air, their legs kicking wildly, black smoke coming out of their bodies, and their eyes gradually losing focus.

thump! thump!
His body fell to the ground, and he was completely out of breath.

"Destroy the evil witchcraft!"

When Protector Wang saw this, he was immediately horrified.

In the Xuanmen, there are many ways to dispatch troops and generals, and the talismans and flags will be different depending on the different enemies.

Some specialize in catching evil spirits, some deal with mountain goblins and monsters, some kill water monsters, and some specialize in breaking evil spirits.

People like Li Yan only use it in a superficial way.

The more targeted the altar, the more powerful it is.

"The Witchcraft to Defeat Evil" is specifically designed to deal with evil monks. Anyone who has learned witchcraft and incantations will be targeted, and even the little ghosts they carry with them will be captured.

The introduction of the altar is called "Suppressing the evil soldiers and horses, making them put down their guns and blades, and lie down and surrender", which means that even the soldiers and horses of the evil will be snatched away.

Upon seeing this, Protector Wang immediately put back the five copper coins he had taken out.

The escape technique he used was the Five Ghosts Escape.

In the Tiansheng Sect, there was another protector who had a close relationship with him. He was from the Yinshan Sect and was best at the Five Ghosts Moving Technique and the Escape Technique. Unfortunately, he was old and weak, and was killed by "Bai Gong", the mountain god of Shennongjia.

This Five Ghosts Coin was passed down to him by the guardian. With it, he could perform escape techniques and his speed would increase dramatically.

Under the current circumstances, I naturally dare not use it.

Once used, it will immediately become the target of siege by soldiers and horses.

With no other choice, he had to push his body skills to the limit, his feet continuously bursting with hidden strength, leaping and running above the treetops.

In this way, the speed will naturally slow down.

The howling wind and dark fog behind him terrified Protector Wang.

"Get out of here, old man!"

Suddenly a roar was heard from a distance.

The voice was vicissitudes, with a hint of fear.

It’s Master Lu!

When Protector Wang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

This person is mysterious, but he knows his background.

This old fellow was a hidden man planted by Zhao Changsheng in Xiangyang. He grew up in poverty and hardship. Although he was smart and studious, he had evil intentions.

Zhao Changsheng secretly sent someone to sponsor Master Lu to study at Bailu Academy. Later, he passed the examination and returned to Longzhong Academy to teach.

No one knew that this highly respected old master had actually converted to the Ghost Cult a long time ago. He used Confucianism to cover up his evil witchcraft and ghost arts, and also obtained precious magic tools, making it difficult for others to see through him.

Now that he was escaping, he finally used his last resort.

The other person had a ghostly aura all over his body, and his old and loose skin was covered with hideous tattoos, all of which were made with human blood.

The speed increased, but it also attracted troops away.

good chance!
Without saying anything, Protector Wang quickened his pace.

At this time, it is naturally better for my fellow Taoist to die than for me to die.

On the other side, Master Lu was surrounded by soldiers.

He held a pitch-black scripture in his hand, chanted a spell, and waved it left and right. The black smoke stirred up a strong wind, dispersing the rising dark fog.

This person once cursed the Nanmu King to death, so naturally he has extraordinary abilities.

But just like then, he made a lot of preparations, even setting up the nightmare technique half a month in advance, before he could succeed.

Now he was ambushed and was at a disadvantage.

After defeating several waves of soldiers, he was exhausted and had no strength to resist. He was wrapped in thick fog and dragged into the air.

Soon, except for Protector Wang, all the rest of the Tiansheng Sect were captured and killed without mercy.

Plague in Xiangyang and dragons running away in Baokang.

In two consecutive incidents, Wudang Mountain was secretly framed, which made it look disgraced and its reputation was damaged.

This time, they finally took it seriously.

Even though they didn't use the most powerful soldiers, these soldiers are now the backbone of the mountain's long-term worship and worship, and they are responsible for slaying demons and suppressing evil.

Protector Wang hid here and there, and his figure gradually disappeared.

Seeing him escape, the three masters on the mountain didn't care. Their attention was all on Master Huang Liu and Lord Tiansheng.

After killing the others, the three of them waved the magic flag together, mobilized the troops, searched the mountains and killed the evil, and even set up strange escape techniques to block them.

Finally, the two monsters were trapped inside.

"Roar--!"

The Yellow Sixth Division finally broke out and stopped fleeing.

He tore off his bloody robe, and corpse qi gushed out of his pale body, revealing his ferocious fangs and sharp claws. He turned around and ran towards the mountain.

After all, he was once the big boss of the Ghost Cult, the leader of the Ezhou Ghost Cult. Although his body has not turned into bones after returning to life, his experience is still there.

If you want to escape now, you must first find the battle flag and destroy the military altar before you can break through the siege.

On the other side, Tiansheng Gong, in tune with his thoughts, also turned back and ran towards the mountain.

They were experienced and soon found a military altar located in an open space in the valley, with flags fluttering and rows of black soul jars used to store soldiers and horses.

The one guarding the altar was Gu Linzi.

The five dragons guard the five altars respectively.

Seeing the two old demons rushing towards him, Gu Linzi was not afraid at all. Murderous intent rose in his golden pupils. He made a gesture behind the altar and slapped out with his palm.

With the blessing of the altar, the palm also underwent changes, with a howling strong wind, which grew bigger and bigger in the eyes of the two monsters.

Especially the palm lines, which seemed to carry some kind of power, making people unable to help but check them out, making their minds feel dizzy and drowsy.

"Wudang Soul-Absorbing Palm?!"

Master Huang Liu's eyes were filled with blood. Suddenly, he twisted his body and, wrapped in white corpse energy, escaped into the ground.

Suddenly, a bulge appeared on the ground and moved towards the altar.

Master Huang Liu's body is a kind of zombie that cannot be turned into bones. It is born with the ability to burrow underground and can easily avoid the Soul-sucking Palm.

Gu Linzi's heart trembled, but he had no time to stop him, because Tian Shenggong on the other side was already attacking him with a sword.

Clang!
At this moment, a dragon roar was heard in the night sky.

A chilling murderous intent spread.

I saw the Wudang headmaster Yu Chanzi, holding the Zhenwu sword, with a whistling wind around him, rushing down the hillside directly.

The Zhenwu Sword was left by the founder Sanfeng and is the treasure of Wudang Mountain. Naturally, its power is extraordinary.

Before they got close, the two demons felt a sharp pain in their souls. At the same time, the surrounding soldiers gathered again and surrounded the place tightly. In the thick fog, they were vague.

Xiao Tianxiong, the Holy Lord of Heaven, was also a little flustered at this moment.

Could it be that he had just come back to life and hadn't even recovered his Taoism yet, yet he would be killed by these young kids?

At this moment, his whole body suddenly stiffened, purple light appeared in his eyes, the evil energy around him gathered madly, and black smoke came out of his whole body.

"Roar--!"

The roar of the wild beast was heard.

Wow~
Flesh wings covered with blood plasma unfolded from the black mist.

Xiao Tianxiong changed rapidly and eventually turned into a monster that looked like a tiger, with spikes all over its body and wings on its back.

Qiongqi's transformation technique!
This is Xiao Tianxiong’s real trump card.

This method originated in ancient times and was mastered by a group of abandoned people from the Fuxi tribe. They used it to do whatever they wanted and changed the tribe's name to the Qiongqi tribe.

It was with this method that Xiao Tianxiong became one of the top ten masters.

However, this method has many disadvantages. Not only will it cause great damage to your vitality every time you use it, but over time, your mind will be infected and you will return to the Danshan ruins like a monster.

What’s more important is that with his current level of skill, he can’t use it at all.

The sudden change now was all due to the evil energy of Yuan Zimei that was parasitic in the body. Feeling threatened, he forcibly catalyzed it.

"Roar!"

With another roar, the unconscious Xiao Tianxiong transformed into the ferocious beast Qiongqi, flapped his wings and disappeared into the night sky...

"evil creature!"

A trace of anger appeared in the eyes of Wudang headmaster Yu Chanzi. He made a sword gesture and stabbed at the ground in the air.

The innate qi gathered together, and a yellow glow appeared, and it sank directly into the ground.

boom!
Mud splattered in front of the altar and Master Huang Liu rolled out.

He was in a terrible state, with a horrible crack from his forehead to his chest, and his skin and flesh were burnt and rotten, a horrible sight.

With the Zhenwu Sword and the surrounding soldiers, Master Huang Liu knew that he would not be able to escape death today. He gritted his fangs, looked at Yu Chanzi, and said fiercely: "Who are you?!"

Gu Linzi was also a little surprised.

The person in front of him was definitely not the Wudang Sect Leader Yu Chanzi.

His Taoism had reached the seventh level and he didn't even need to go down the mountain. He could directly control the Zhenwu Sword and mobilize the innate Gangsha sword energy to kill people.

Its power is no less than that of the Cheng family's flying sword in Shu.

The person in front of him could only barely use the Zhenwu Sword, and he failed to kill Master Huang Liu with one strike.

The "Wudang Master" looked at the direction where Xiao Tianxiong disappeared, shook his head slightly, reached out his hand to grab his jaw, and pulled off a mask.

Under the mask was an old man with three long beards. Although his hair and beard were all white, his skin was rosy, like a baby's.

"Meet Uncle Chenyang."

Gu Linzi quickly bowed and saluted.

The person in front of him was Chen Yangzi, the youngest of the Seven Elders of Wudang. His martial arts and techniques were top-notch, but he was far behind Yu Chanzi.

Chen Yangzi looked at Master Huang Liu with a cold look of doubt, without explaining, he suddenly swung his sword.

puff!
Black pus and blood splattered, and Master Huang Liu's head rolled to the ground, his face full of unwillingness and confusion.

Until his death, he didn't know why.

The Zhenwu Sword can ward off evil and eliminate demons. This time, the old ghost was killed and his soul was completely destroyed, with no chance of returning to life.

After beheading Master Huang Liu, Chen Yangzi looked at Gu Linzi who was also puzzled and explained, "The headmaster is still on the mountain."

"The Tiansheng Cult's plan is a complete cover-up."

"The last time the Ghost Cult caused trouble in Dangyang County, they failed to destroy Guanling, failed to obtain the dragon energy, and also attracted the attention of the Xuanmen. There is no hope now."

"Even if the trapped dragon penetrates the Ju River, it is still a pipe dream to get through Guan Sheng Di Jun's sword. It is absolutely impossible."

"The headmaster was going to go down the mountain this time, but after hearing your intelligence, he realized something was wrong. If nothing unexpected happened, the ones who disturbed the heaven's secrets were the two gods who were practicing in Wushan."

"Not many people can ask them to help. This move is entirely to lure the headmaster down the mountain and personally save Wudang's reputation."

Gu Linzi was startled, and immediately thought of something, and said in a trembling voice: "It's Zhao Changsheng, he has sneaked into Ezhou."

"He wants to attack Wudang Mountain?!"

"Humph!"

Chen Yangzi snorted coldly, "If he had the guts, why would he go through so much trouble to come up with this plan?"

"The Law Enforcement Hall has already found out that Zhao Changsheng was hiding in the dragon vein outside the pass, stirring up riots and absorbing the luck of Shenzhou. Unfortunately, he was accidentally destroyed by someone, and only a half-crippled body is left."

"If he was in his prime, we really couldn't deal with him, but now he is wanted by Shenzhou Xuanmen, so he can only hide."

"But this person has left many hidden tricks behind. If nothing unexpected happens, he has already planted spies on Mount Wudang."

"That spy is of high status. He has leaked information several times before, causing Wudang to suffer heavy losses."

"The master's plan is to first catch this person, and secondly follow him to capture Zhao Changsheng!"

……

Wudang Mountain, the main hall of Huangjing Hall.

As the night grew darker, candles flickered dimly in the hall as a Taoist priest was respectfully adding lamp oil to the statue of the Great Emperor Zhenwu.

Wudang masters went down the mountain one after another, and the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain became much emptier.

After finishing his work, the Taoist yawned, and then his eyes suddenly became dull. He walked to the back hall as if sleepwalking, took out the key, and took out one of the many copper boxes.

After opening it, there was a row of blood jade cong inside.

There are nine blood jade congs in total, which can be put together to activate the arrangement left by Zhou Gong and release the suppressed Nine-headed Phoenix Vein.

And in the copper box, seven of them have been collected.

The Taoist picked up the copper box, pushed open the side door, and came to the observation deck.

Below is a thousand-foot cliff, the night wind is howling, and the mountains are vast.

His eyes were dull and he threw the copper box out.

The copper box continued to fall and collide with the rocks.

Suddenly, a pair of furry claws stretched out from the hillside, and it turned out to be a white-haired old ape. It took the copper box into its arms, jumped and galloped on the cliff, and ran down the mountain.

Finally, we arrived at a cave.

"Squeak~"

The old ape shouted proudly twice.

call!
Suddenly, a cold wind howled in the cave, and a cloud of black mist surged out, sucking the panicked old ape and the copper box into the cave.

Soon, a cold snort was heard from the cave.

"Stupid, that's fake!"

Bang! The copper box was thrown out, and the imitation blood jade congs hit the stone and shattered to the ground.

There was a moment of silence in the cave, and then a helpless voice sounded:
"Yuchanzi, is that you?"

A Taoist priest slowly walked out from the darkness nearby. It was none other than the Wudang Sect Master Yu Chanzi.

He flicked his whisk, looked around calmly, and sighed, "Uncle Master, isn't it good to be a local immortal in peace?"

"What's so good about being an earthly immortal?"

The voice in the cave was full of resentment, "Sitting here, even if you can live forever, what's the difference between you and a prisoner!"

Yu Chanzi said calmly: "If everyone in the world had the opportunity to become a god, the world would have been in chaos long ago. You chose your own path, so why would you feel resentment?"

"What benefits did Zhao Changsheng give you?"

"Hahaha…"

The voice in the cave was a little crazy. "What benefit? Of course it's a chance to become a god! He has found a loophole in the world! What a pity..."

Seeing that the person in the cave was no longer making sense, Yu Chanzi narrowed his eyes and gradually became murderous...

……

In the river below the mountain, a fishing boat was slowly approaching the shore.

"Forget it, the wind smells wrong, let's go."

A cold voice sounded from the boat pavilion.

"Yes, Master."

The old man rowing the boat flicked the bamboo pole in his hand, and the fishing boat quickly turned around and disappeared into the night...
