Shennong Sequence

Chapter 159: The fortune teller who was fooled by fate got the purple gourd

"If the Wild Goose Return Stone contains the power to reverse time, then it can summon a little bit of power from my future self. Then, within a certain period of time, according to the level of my personal understanding, I can practice some magic to perfection..."

"And what kind of opportunity do you have, old man, to be able to rival a top-level spiritual talent like the Wild Goose Returning Stone?"

County Magistrate Fang explained the whole story clearly, then looked at the old man from the fortune teller's family with an inquiring look.

Zhao Yun knew the details, and naturally his impression of this old man from the Xiang family became more and more disgusted!
Then, the eight or nine old men looked at County Magistrate Fang with a somewhat unfriendly look in their eyes.

However, County Magistrate Fang was not afraid of these eight or nine people who were good at fortune-telling. He glared at them and said, "You, a person from the fortune-telling family, do have many ways to check and balance ordinary people. But as an official of the Great Zhou Dynasty, why don't you try to take a part of my luck?
Let's see if the fate of the Divine Dynasty will backfire on you and kill you, causing your Xiang family to break a taboo again and be sealed off for another hundred years!"

Mr. Bajiu immediately suppressed his anger, smiled at Zhao Yun and said:

"Of course I have prepared the opportunity! Zhao Yun, you have been hunted down by the Barbarian King himself. You have not yet followed the army to Zhoucheng Guihongcheng to take up your post..."

"If you want to participate in the battle for Lingxiu in Yan Gui Lingshan before heading to Guihong City to take up your post, the journey is long, so be careful of the many assassins following you!"

"And the opportunity I give you can ensure that you will not be disturbed by assassins on this trip, and can allow you to arrive safely in Guihong City!"

After hearing what the old man from the Xiang family said, Zhao Yun's eyes narrowed and he angrily asked, "Are you threatening me?"

"No, I'm just discussing it with General Xiao Zhao." Mr. Bajiu said with a wry smile.

Zhao Yun then did not hesitate any more and directly put on the sixth-grade armor of General Po Lu. Then a fifth-grade thunder bead fell into his hand from the key space.

"You old man, you are really disgusting!"

After saying that, Zhao Yun pushed the lightning ball violently and smashed it directly towards the old man from the Xiang family.

In an instant, brilliant lightning exploded within a one-meter diameter around him, just sweeping up Mr. Bajiu!

Moreover, the power of the thunder ball explosion did not leak beyond one meter from the explosion point!
This is a high-quality thunder bead, which has good quality and can control the size of the explosion range and the degree of power concentration!
Although Mr. Bajiu found it strange to see Zhao Yun wearing armor, he really didn't expect Zhao Yun to fight so desperately right from the start.

In an instant, he began to retreat, but his feet had not yet touched the ground, so his spells were naturally unable to work. Just as the area around him had just begun to resist, it was no longer able to withstand the instantaneous burst of power from the fifth-grade lightning bead.

Then, when Sun Zhengxuan saw Zhao Yun suddenly launch an attack, he threw a very small star-exploding bamboo towards the area where the thunder ball exploded.

The explosive flames flashing on that section of Star-Exploding Bamboo were even more violent than the aura of the fifth-grade lightning bead that Zhao Yun had just thrown out!
In an instant, he fell into the thunder ball that had just expanded.

"Boom" a huge roar swept around.

However, the flame was also controlled within the range of a sphere with a diameter of about two meters, and almost injured Zhao Yun who was on the edge.

When Zhao Yun came to his senses, he saw the endless flames before his eyes intertwined with crackling thunder... and the screaming voice of Master Bajiu also stopped abruptly!

"I wonder if the old man in the blazing fire and thunder is dead?" Zhao Yun retreated a little and muttered to himself.

After a long time, the thunder and fire that had been raging within a two-meter range completely subsided, leaving only a pile of ashes on the ground and a purple gourd floating in the same place.

The people who came to participate in the capture of Yan Gui Lingshan also saw the fifth-grade or even higher-grade killing weapon that the master and apprentice had just thrown out...

There was also a vague feeling of fear between the master and disciple.

After all, he has not even entered the sacred mountain yet, and he has already started to use killing weapons so recklessly. It is obvious that he is not a character to be trifled with...

At the same time, the black-armored soldiers who were originally maintaining order at the scene quickly formed a small team and walked towards Sun Zhengxuan, Zhao Yun and County Magistrate Fang with weapons in hand.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Yun stepped forward and put the purple gourd that had survived the death of Mr. Bajiu, the fifth-grade thunder bead, and even the fifth-grade fire-attributed blasting star bamboo that Master Sun had just mentioned, into his own door key space. The gourd only had some traces of lightning and fire burns on it.

Then he threw out two pieces of eighth-grade star-blasting bamboo, which blew up the traces of the original place again and completely scattered Mr. Bajiu's ashes!
He then put on the sixth-rank armor of General Po Lu, walked in front of the soldiers, and took out his Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth.

This treasure mirror of heaven and earth is not only a tool for transmitting information between people, but also a prop that condenses everything into one, similar to an official seal.

And those black armor soldiers, seeing Zhao Yun wearing armor and holding a sixth-grade pattern-level treasure mirror of heaven and earth...

This proves that Zhao Yun's own identity and rank are higher than those of the surrounding black-armored soldiers!
Therefore, the battalion commander who originally led the entire Black Armor Army Corps hurried out and shouted to the soldiers around who had picked up their weapons, asking them to put down their weapons first.

Then he ran to Zhao Yun and asked respectfully, "General, where do you belong to and why did you do that just now?"

"That man just threatened me, so just kill him...you just need to maintain order." Zhao Yun said calmly.

The battalion commander could only carefully persuade him, "Then I hope the general will consider the order at the scene. The military minister over there is also going to need a quiet environment to lift the ban on the mountain of Yan Gui Ling Mountain."

"I understand." Zhao Yun responded casually.

"General, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll go and maintain order at the scene..."

"Go."

Just like that, this rash incident was resolved quietly.

Although it seems very unofficial and there is not even any interrogation, it is indeed a symbol of power!
The people around saw that Zhao Yun had dismissed the Black Armored Army who were maintaining order at the scene with just a few words, and that he himself had not been punished, so they naturally labeled Zhao Yun and his group as powerful and wealthy. Some people naturally want to stay away from such people;

And some people want to come up and cling on;
But some people just take it easy... because that's how they do things.

However, this was the first time that Zhao Yun used such power. Although he was very successful when using it, it was still his first time and he was not very skilled yet. He also felt a little uncomfortable under the gaze of everyone.

Then, he thought that the armor on his body was a defensive weapon. When they entered the Yan Gui Ling Mountain, there would be dangers everywhere. It would be safer to wear this all-round protective armor, so he did not take it off.

County Magistrate Fang and the many warriors behind him once again paid close attention to Zhao Yun.

Magistrate Fang, in particular, had a very special feeling towards Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun was originally just a small pawn, and he could even manipulate him at will, even pulling out Commander Wang as the scapegoat.

Zhao Yun now could make the Black Armor Army retreat with just a few words, and even kill a seemingly powerful Xiang family practitioner in a rage.

Moreover, in his perception, the Xiang family practitioner just now was definitely not a Sequence Seven practitioner, but most likely a Sequence Six practitioner!
Generally, practitioners of Sequence Six have already developed certain supernatural powers!
But he was killed in an instant by the super-standard lethal weapons thrown continuously by the master and the disciple. It was really a tragic death, and it was not worth it...

However, Sun Zhengxuan was a man who had just walked out of the academy in the capital. He was still frightened by what had just happened, and he blamed Zhao Yun, "You were reckless just now! But fortunately, that man was a practitioner of the Xiang family. In addition to stealing and transporting goods, their most common ability is to avoid disasters, so under normal circumstances, they would not take risks or even die."

"But those who fool fate will eventually be fooled by fate..."

"Therefore, people of the physiognomy family will not only face a tribulation when they enter the rank, but will also face a tribulation when they use the sequence abilities of - Sequence 9: Observing the Physiognomy (Physiognomy gives a glimpse into the depths of fate) - Sequence 8: Avoiding Disaster (Physiognomy gives a deep insight into the source of disaster and fortune) - Sequence 7: Stealing Luck (Observing the Wind and Stealing Water for Eternal Destiny) -

Avoid the misfortune that you deserve, steal the destiny of others, and then tease fate, and be fooled by fate! "

"Virtue does not match the position. This is the source of all disasters for the prime minister!"

“Even when they are promoted to Sequence 6, they will not gain a big leap in cultivation strength like those in other sequences. Instead, they will be bitten back by fate!”

"During the process of practicing Sequence 6, the people of the Xiang family have a special sequence called 'Lock Fate', which means locking one's own destiny, or being blinded by destiny!"

“Therefore, people of the Xiang family will be fooled and deceived by fate at the Sequence 6 level. This is when their ability to know blessings and avoid disasters is the weakest, and it is also the time when they are most likely to encounter danger in their lives!”

“However, during this stage, the ability to steal fortunes and other means will be further improved. Once enough fortunes have been stolen and one has crossed over to Sequence Five, one will be able to truly break free from the backlash of fate and reach a state where one truly masters some of the rules of fate. At that time, the Xiang Family’s people will even be able to seize some of the Divine Dynasty’s national fortunes. That will be the most terrifying state…”

"So there are many people from the Xiang family who are at Sequence 6, but there are very few people from the Xiang family who are at Sequence 5... The Divine Dynasty has always suppressed people from the Xiang family to a certain extent."

"But this time these Xiang family members were able to escape. From what I know, it was because the Confucianists guaranteed their release. They then traveled across the continents, searching for the lost Confucian Qiyunren."

"So, it's fortunate that this old man is a person from the Xiang family who has reached the Sequence 6 Life Locking Realm. He has locked his own luck and also locked his own means of detecting the misfortunes and blessings of the outside world. This is why fate played a trick on him and he fell into our hands."

"Otherwise, if it was Sequence 7, he would not have come if he knew how to avoid disaster. And if it was Sequence 5, the attack we just launched would have backfired on you and me... So the easiest stage to bully is when the Xiang family is at Sequence 6. This is also one of their biggest weaknesses."

"Besides that, for other sequence practitioners, especially those who practice step by step, every time they advance one sequence, their strength will be qualitatively improved... Next time, don't be so impulsive."

"Also, although you have the fifth-grade lightning bead, it may not be able to kill a sixth-grade warrior, because his reaction speed is fast enough and he can run fast! The speed of your lightning bead is not fast enough... Only when you take the enemy by surprise can you kill him!"

Zhao Yun was naturally taught a lesson, but this time, he also gained some understanding of luck, and perhaps had a deep impression of it.

Then he looked at the Yanguiling Mountain which was gradually emerging among the mountains in front of him, but there was still a layer of mist between the mountain and the crowd.

Meanwhile, the military minister on the other side was still making complicated hand seals. It was obvious that the forbidden method of sealing the mountain had not yet been completely unlocked, and it would take some time...

Then Zhao Yun took out the purple-skinned gourd with scars of lightning and fire that had fallen from Mr. Bajiu, and survived the explosion of the fifth-grade lightning bead and even the fifth-grade fire-attributed blasting star bamboo that Master Sun had just mentioned.

"I've never seen this thing before, but I think since it could survive the explosion just now, its defensive capability must be top-notch." County Magistrate Fang studied it for a while, thought for a while and said.

Sun Zhengxuan took out the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth and kept looking through the various records about the gourd in the Military Honor Mall. However, after searching for a while, he did not find any relevant records about the gourd.

Then he looked at the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth in Zhao Yun's hand. Zhao Yun had the authority of the sixth rank, which was much more powerful than him and County Magistrate Fang who only had the authority of the eighth rank.

Then, Zhao Yun used his own Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth to vaguely search for "purple-skinned gourd", and then a large number of records related to this purple-skinned gourd appeared.

After a comparison among the three of them, they finally found the origin of the purple gourd in front of them:

"This Purple Luck Gourd can store luck, or turn the luck in it into a pot of luck liquid. After swallowing it, it can permanently increase a certain amount of luck. At the same time, it can suppress one's own luck. It can also be used as an array object in the mountain and water array, or it can coordinate the operation of the power of heaven and earth... The use of this thing is very close to the ability of the people of the Xiang family!"

"Yes, this Purple Luck Gourd alone costs 3 military honor points!"

Three of us, you and I are talking.

However, when Zhao Yun saw the Purple Fortune Gourd's ability to coordinate the power of heaven and earth, he felt itchy in his heart.

This purple gourd is also of great use to him!

Take his method of constructing earth veins, which was upgraded from the method of nourishing earth energy. It was definitely the fastest way to turn the earth veins and form a magic array that was wrapped in the power of heaven and earth!
With the assistance of such a purple gourd that coordinates the power of heaven and earth, it would naturally be more convenient for Zhao Yun to set up the formation and mobilize the power of heaven and earth.

At the same time, Zhao Yun also comprehended some of the earth vein illusion arrays given by Master Sun, and was even able to use the power of the innate residual talismans such as earth, water, wind, fire, etc. that he had previously comprehended through the earth vein illusion array!
