It's broken, and was picked up by a femme fatale

It is impossible to spend money.

However, Lu Yuan felt that
The convalescing lady may well think differently.

Why?

Because she had also entered the "black barrier area",
Although I failed to break through the realm of true wonder,
But, he must have personal experience with the forbidden black technique.

The art of war says: Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle!
Because Emperor Linggui was too powerful and out of control,
If an accident happens, the imperial city will be littered with corpses.

You know, that’s a capital city with millions of residents!
Lu Yuan hurried back to the palace.

After discussing with Li Qingluan and Zhao Qiaoer, they decided to fly back to Taining City immediately.

Based on the principle of quick return,
Lu Yuan summoned the phoenix and turned on "flight mode".

After an hour and a half, Lu Yuan arrived at Xifengao on Dayin Mountain and the cave of Goddess Hongfen.

Since regaining her true form, Lady Hongfen has had her cave repainted.

The original coffin, the dead body,

Throw them all out and burn them all in a fire.

As soon as Lu Yuan arrived,
Lady Hongfen immediately sensed the fluctuations of his and the Phoenix's spiritual power.

Before this, Lu Yuan had already sent out a carrier pigeon to pass on the message to the Empress.

So there will be no misunderstanding.

Lu Yuan put away the phoenix and went straight into the cave.

But I saw Lady Hongfen sitting upright on a lotus stone seat with a solemn expression.

Lu Yuan flew onto the stage, hugged the other person and kissed him.

Unexpectedly, Lady Hongfen quickly covered her mouth and nose.

Lu Yuan stopped in confusion and asked:
"My dear wife, what's wrong?"

Lady Hongfen explained helplessly:

"My body has been infected by the dark forces.
Once I get intimate with you, I will probably pass it on to you!"

Ok?
Lu Yuan was shocked.

"When did it happen... No, how can you be so sure?"

Lady Hongfen replied: "It was said by Miaoshan Guanyin.

She had no better solution and could only use the Lotus Heart Purification Mantra to temporarily suppress it."

Lu Yuan was even more puzzled: "She has been here?"

Lady Hongfen shook her head: "When you reach the Saint level, you can truly transmit sound over a thousand miles."

Lu Yuan's heart moved, and he asked, "Is she still in the Imperial City now?"

Hongfen nodded: "Yes, do you need her for something?"

"Well, ask him for me, what is the condition of Emperor Linggui?
Also, what about the dream world?"

Soon, Hongfen Niangniang contacted Miaoshan Guanyin through spiritual power.

After a moment, the other party replied:

"The dark power in Emperor Linggui's body will only last for a year or so at most.
will reach a critical point. As for the dream world,
Generally speaking, it is a 'virtual microcosm' created by the strong in the righteous fairyland.
The vast majority are generated by random probability, the creator's virtual consciousness,

Having the 'home advantage', however, this virtual microcosm,
There are often many hidden 'bugs' that can be used to your advantage..."

Lu Yuan asked again:
"So, Emperor Linggui has already reached the realm of true immortality?"

"No! It's probably him.
The dark power in the body overflowed, causing..."

Lu Yuan frowned and asked:

"Why can I enter the dream world?"

Miaoshan Guanyin thought for a while and replied:
"Normally speaking, the dream world is open to all without invitation.
But because there are many places connected to reality,
It is very likely that Emperor Linggui misses you deeply.

Therefore, in his confused subconscious,

By some strange mistake, you were granted "immunity"..."

Lu Yuan got goosebumps when he heard this.

Damn bastard!
Why are you thinking about me for no reason?
If this gets out, will I still have any face left?!
Soon, he told the story of the mysterious woman in the dream world.

Miaoshan Guanyin asked curiously, "What realm is that woman in?"

"At most, he is at the peak of Heavenly Master."

"Tsk tsk, I can probably guess, it's the Queen!

You actually snatched the queen in front of Emperor Linggui. I admire you!"

Queen Shen Ling... Yan Shuangying?

No way?
How did she get into the dream world?
When Lu Yuan was puzzled,

Miaoshan Guanyin sent another message.

"The dream world is so fun. Next time, take me to one!"

What a fun big-headed ghost!
Lu Yuan asked back depressedly:

"As long as you kill that toad, I will play with you!"

“Haha, sorry!
I must follow the basic rules of dimension,
I cannot interfere directly with your world, so...

Come on, I'm rooting for you!"

Get out!!!

After hanging up the call, Lu Yuan was too lazy to get angry with Sister Guanyin.
After a while, he sighed helplessly.

Alas, it seems that it is better to rely on oneself than to rely on others.

However, don't say that you are just a first-grade Tianzun.
Even Lady Hongfen herself seems to be unable to protect herself?
Seeing her husband sighing, Lady Hongfen felt distressed.

From the conversation just now, she also learned about Lu Yuan's experience.

After thinking for a while, she said: "Dark Five Elements Formation,
It is quite different from the Five Elements Theory in our world.
If you rashly attack Emperor Linggui, whether you will be killed or not is another matter.

Moreover, it may backfire... and drive him crazy!"

Lu Yuan's heart moved, and he asked, "Why is it so different?"

Lady Red explained:
“The normal five elements are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, harmoniously balanced.

But the dark five elements may be chaotic and counter-productive.
It could also be that there is no birth and no restraint, or all birth and all restraint...

In short, it was created by the person who set up the formation, and there is no pattern at all..."

Lu Yuan's expression froze.

So, does this mean that the dark forces will never be defeated?
But, according to Miaoshan Guanyin,

After a year or so, Emperor Linggui will either die or be promoted to the realm of immortality.

If it is the latter, I'm afraid this perverted thing will be even more terrifying.

Lu Yuan was in a bad mood.

I have tried almost every avenue, but still can't do anything about Emperor Linggui.

It’s so evil!

Alas, let’s take it one step at a time.

Lu Yuan said to Lady Hongfen, "Don't stay here alone, come with me to Goryeo?"

"Yuan'er, I also want to be with you,
But the dark forces are very evil.
If it is not handled in time, it will lead to disaster.

This place is sparsely populated, even though it is polluted.

It won't cause too much harm, you understand what I mean, right?"

Lu Yuan hugged his wife tightly.

"Don't worry, my dear. One day, I will cure you!"

Lady Hongfen smiled and said:

"Thank you, Yuan'er! I am so lucky to be your wife!"

Kiss the queen goodbye and leave Xifengao.
Lu Yuan, who was returning home, suddenly ordered the Phoenix,
Change direction and fly to Lake Baikal.

Unite all forces that can be united!

In mid-air, Lu Yuan leaped down and jumped into the dragon's den and the tiger's lair.

Godsla naturally also sensed the fluctuation of spiritual power and came out with three baby dragons.

I haven't seen you for a few months. The baby dragon has grown up quite fast.

From a kitten to a big wolfdog, it is still in its infancy and cannot act alone for three to five years.

The little fire dragon obviously recognized Lu Yuan,

The bond of fate made it cry out:
"Bah, bah!"

Lu Yuan is now the ruler of a country, so he naturally has a lot of high-quality spirit stones.

He smiled and threw out three large pieces of attribute spirit stones as a gift to the younger generations.

Sure enough, all three dragon babies became active.

"Hmm, Hmm!"

"Whoa, whoa!"

Then each of them held the spirit stone in their mouth and started eating.

Godzilla smiled and asked, "How did you subdue the 'little turkey'?"

Although Lu Yuan did not summon the Phoenix,

But, it cannot be hidden from the ancient dragon clan.

Fortunately, the Phoenix didn't hear it.
Otherwise, these two guys will definitely have a big fight.

Lu Yuan briefly talked about the forbidden area of ​​Hengshan.

Gosila nodded: "It's good to be a spirit pet.
This unfair guy is good at blocking a knife in a fight."

Lu Yuan asked him about the dream world and the five elements of darkness. Godzilla also felt a headache.

"I once felt the dark power at the bottom of the Antarctic ice.
With the current trend, the dark forces are gradually eroding our world...

I feel like they did this consciously..."

Lu Yuan was very surprised and asked hurriedly:

"You mean, there was dark power on Earth tens of thousands of years ago?"

Godzilla shrugged and said disapprovingly:

"Do you think that the Black Barrier Field was brought by the Spiritual Martial Emperor?"

Lu Yuan suddenly understood.

It turned out that it was not Emperor Lingwu who sought out the dark forces, but the dark forces who sought him out.

Thinking more deeply, a possibility becomes apparent.

"Is it possible that it is an evil demon from outer space?

A "time bomb" buried in the earth in advance? "

Godzilla isn't so sure.

"It's hard to say. The power of darkness is too strong. Even the evil demons may not be able to control it..."

Lu Yuan understood what Godzilla meant.
The dark forces most likely originated from the Earth itself and existed earlier than the dragon race.

Antarctica...would you like to go there?

However, the next sentence from the other side made Lu Yuan almost jump up.

"It seems that your Beihai City is about to be coveted by the forces of darkness..."

"what?"

How could dark forces appear in Beihai City?

"Well, I just had a feeling that there was a faint fluctuation of dark power.

Very faint, maybe something similar, anyway, it’s not a good thing…”

With a sound of "whoosh!"
Lu Yuan rushed out of the lake, flew into the air, and headed straight for Beihai City.

According to previous secret reports, the Cossack cavalry marched eastward in a large scale, intending to recapture Beihai City.

Therefore, Lu Yuan sent Zhalatu and the White Tiger Brigade to reinforce.

Counting the days, it’s almost time.

After arriving at Beihai City, Lu Yuan changed his mind and landed ten miles south of the city.

Just a slight change to your facial skin will instantly transform your appearance.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Yuan turned into a burly man with a face full of stubble.

He took out leather clothes, leather hat and leather boots from the space and put them on, then suppressed his realm to the peak level of Heavenly Master.

In this way, no one except a strong person in the Heavenly Venerate Realm would be able to detect Lu Yuan's abnormality.

Lu Yuan took a step forward and headed towards Beihai City.

After approaching, Lu Yuan nodded as he looked at the fortifications outside the city with ravines and trenches.

At least, Talulu, Zhang Yuting, Kilton and others still work hard.

Because we are in an emergency situation recently, the army is on the main road three miles away from the city.
Checkpoints were set up to check travelers coming and going, mainly to identify Russian spies.

There were only ordinary clothes in Lu Yuan's package.
The soldiers who were checking had no difficulty and I passed smoothly.

After a short while, Lu Yuan followed the people through the South Gate and entered Beihai City.

I haven't been here for a few months, and there are many more shops and mobile vendors in Beihai City.

There are also a lot more residents than before, and most of them have obvious Bu people characteristics.

In short, despite the cold winter season,
The whole city seems to be quite popular.

Lu Yuan was familiar with the place and was wandering around the city.

The hottest topic on the streets,
It's the news that the Cossack cavalry is coming to attack.

Some people say 20,000 or 30,000, some say 50,000 or 6
Even the most exaggerated one is that at least 100,000.
The Russian cavalry is coming in overwhelming numbers, and Beihai City is in danger this time.

Someone immediately refuted that the reinforcements from the Northern Navy would arrive soon.

Moreover, Beihai had deep trenches and high fortifications, excellent firearms, and high morale.
Resisting an army of 100,000 is no problem.

It seems that Zhalatu's White Tiger Brigade has not entered the city yet.

Lu Yuan simply treated it as a joke and went around in circles like this to grasp the basic public opinion.

To avoid trouble, he stayed in a small inn and behaved like an ordinary person.

It gets dark early here, and with the cold wind and flying snow, basically no one goes out on the streets after dark.

Apart from the patrol team, the whole city was very quiet.

Lu Yuan pushed open the window, jumped out, and took advantage of the night to quickly approach the Governor's Office.

Relying on the fluctuations of spiritual power, Lu Yuan quietly sneaked to the roof of the conference room.

There are a lot of people in the house.

There are Talulu, Zhang Yuting, Li Hemei, Yalibu, and many familiar spiritual power fluctuations.

It seems that they are all the backbone of the army.

The only thing they talked about was how to deal with the Cossack cavalry corps.

However, judging from the latest military intelligence,

The enemy's forces definitely numbered more than 3, and they also carried dozens of artillery pieces.

At present, there are only more than 3,000 regular troops stationed in Beihai.

Including the Bu warriors, there were only 5000 people.

The disparity in strength between the enemy and us is too great.

Therefore, Zhang Yuting advocated defending the city and waiting for reinforcements.
At most, send out a small and capable team to carry out a few raids.

However, Yalibu believed that the White Tiger Brigade would need at least two more days of journey as they encountered snow and wind.

The Russians are close at hand and may launch a strong attack at any time.

Once dozens of artillery pieces bombard it, Beihai City will not be able to withstand it.

He suggested moving the population and most of the troops and retreating eastward.

Wait until we join forces with the White Tiger Brigade, and then find a way to repel the Cossack Cavalry Corps.

This is actually the standard grassland people style of "avoiding the enemy's attack and preserving strength".

Both of them have valid points.
The generals who participated in the military meeting naturally split into two factions, and the dispute was fierce.

Finally, Talulu made the final decision.

"We can't give up Beihai City! Yuting, continue to strengthen the city defenses and monitor the enemy."

Zhang Yuting was very happy: "Yes! I will obey your orders!"

However, Taluo added:
"The Bu warriors and Bu people cannot stay outside the city.
Yalibu, you must immediately have them retreat eastwards and support the White Tiger Brigade!"

Yalibu was also very happy and said loudly: "Yes! I will do it right away!"

This is equivalent to taking half and half, without offending either side.

There was a rustling sound in the house.

The generals all went out to carry out the orders of the "Acting Governor-General".

At this time, Taluk said to Li Hemei:
“No matter how strong a fortress is, it is often breached by the enemy from within!”

Li Hemei immediately said:
"Understood. I will keep a close eye on those Maozi merchants!"

Talulu paused for a moment and asked, "Still no news about the princess?"

Li Hemei was silent for a while and said:

"The snow and wind are too strong... ordinary people can't really track them..."

Lu Yuan knew that the princess they were talking about was Jin Meijing.

That's strange, wasn't she here to find someone with a dog?

Why did he disappear?
Talukyou sighed and said, “Alas!

If the master asks, I don’t know, how should I answer…”

Li Hemei said tentatively: "Her realm,
Ordinary people are difficult to deal with, but good luck will come to you, so don’t worry too much!”

Talulu also knew that it was a snowy day.

Moreover, there are Maozi soldiers outside the city.

No matter who was sent to search for Jin Meijing, they would almost certainly die.

Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps were heard.

Someone came in to report:

"Report to Lord Talulu, someone has died..."

"Ok?"

Taluk immediately became nervous:

"Who died? How did they die?"

"It seems like a herdsman family, who have been in the city for a few days.

The whole family is dead... bleeding from all seven orifices, skin ulcers...

The blood is black and looks like poison..."

Li Hemei stood up and exclaimed: "Take me over to have a look!"

Lu Yuan's heart also trembled.

The whole family died, and black blood was shed... Could it be the "dark power" Godzilla mentioned? (End of this chapter)
