From a martial arts disciple to a god through countless trials and tribulations

Chapter 97 Ten Directions Move

Chen Xuan was shocked. Jiang Qinghuang was attacked inexplicably, lost consciousness, and fell from a height of two or three hundred meters.

Except for people like him who have "transcended the limit" and have extremely strong bodies, ordinary Taoist monks who fall from this height will have their bones broken at best, or be smashed to pieces like a watermelon at worst, and it is unlikely that they will survive.

Was it a peak-level Daozang expert who took action? Or was it someone using a peerless treasure?
Chen Xuan became alert and immediately retreated a few steps, cautiously retreating into the woods.

"Howl!"

In the sky, the fire phoenix with gorgeous feathers let out a mournful cry and immediately swooped down, its wings dragging two trails of flames, and its beak grabbed the waist of Jiang Qinghuang, who was floating down like a fallen leaf.

【Phoenix Qi】!
The ancient scriptures passed down by the Jiang family, and the Phoenix Immortal Qi cultivated there, are among the best among countless high-grade immortal energies and are extremely magical.

"Jiang Qinghuang lost consciousness, like a dead body, but the Phoenix Qi did not dissipate, and even took the initiative to save the master!"

Chen Xuan was impressed. The Phoenix Sutra was indeed worthy of its reputation. At the same time, he observed the reactions of the dragon girl and other monsters on the other side of the lake and made a judgment: "This matter has nothing to do with them."

The dragon girl and other monsters were stunned. Some of them cried out in surprise, "Who did this? Are they ghosts from the Southern Wilderness?"

Not only are they targeting Jiang Qinghuang, but there are other forces involved in the siege?

This sudden and earth-shaking change immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they temporarily forgot about Chen Xuan who had obtained the old turtle's severed hand and the treasure.

"Your Highness!" In the distant forest, a monk from the Demon Suppression Division who had rushed over shouted in shock.

"Jiang Qinghuang is unlucky and has suffered fatal attacks one after another."

Chen Xuan was astonished. This was the descendant of Emperor Jiang. Dangers would plague him throughout his life, and it was inevitable. He was surrounded by tigers and wolves, and would be attacked at any time. This Jiang family bloodline was too miserable!
"Buzz!"

A 鸓鸟 feather was spinning around Jiang Qinghuang, resisting some kind of supernatural power.

……

……

Dozens of miles away, on a mountain.

The young man, with a fair and handsome face and a slightly frail body, had just entered the Southern Wilderness when he saw huge firebirds such as the [鸓鸟] and [Bifang] rising into the sky. Hundreds of birds chirped and flew desperately towards the distance.

Faintly visible in the distant sky, there is a lonely and helpless fire phoenix.

"Master, the little princess of Chu seems to have encountered an accident."

The young man named Xiao Huo turned the black ring on his finger and whispered.

"It's good to be in chaos, your chance has come!"

In the ring, an old voice emerged in Xiao Hu's mind, and continued with a bewitching tone:
"Xiao Hou, take this opportunity to kill the cultivators from the Demon Suppression Division, and [Flame Emperor Ming] suppress the fire cultivators in the world. They are all your cultivation resources!"

Xiao Qiong frowned slightly upon hearing this, and muffledly refused, "Disciple does not wish to kill innocent people. Master, I want to rescue the Jiang family princess... This human race has a strong character."

He has experienced a lot as he traveled across the country to Yuezhou. He has some admiration for the Jiang family of the Chu State.

The old voice immediately scolded: "Utter wood! What's the point of being a hero? Can a person like Jiang Qinghuang repay you with her body? With your green eyes, you will never become a great master in thirty years, let alone three years!"

Xiao Huo said in a firm tone, "Master, there's no need to persuade me any further. I can't rest easy if I stand by and watch injustice happen!"

Although he suffered the humiliation of a broken engagement when he was young and made a three-year agreement, his passion remained strong and he was never shaken by the insults, contempt, and malice he encountered.

"Many aristocratic families and forces in the Chu State have cultivators who commit crimes and bully the weak. I know who deserves to die and who doesn't. I will only follow the path of cultivation that I believe in."

The old voice was silent for a moment, then sighed, "No wonder young women along the way always take a liking to you, willing to become your confidante... But your incompatible temperament is a waste of [Yan Emperor Ming], and you will hardly achieve great things in the future."

Xiao Qiong still replied: "No matter how many difficulties and dangers there are, even if I die nine times, I will never regret it."

The mountain wind howled as the young man, with a resolute expression and high spirits, headed down the mountain, determined to offer his humble assistance to Jiang Qinghuang, who was being attacked by an unknown force. ...

……

By the lake.

Chen Xuan stood under a tree, carefully observing the situation at the scene. He was almost at the center of the incident, and if he was not careful, he would get burned.

"Woo!"

In the sky, the shadow of the phoenix wailed, carrying Jiang Qinghuang in its mouth, and fled towards the path ahead, escaping from the inexplicable danger on the ground.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a brilliant black divine light, accompanied by countless screaming ghost faces, hit the Phoenix like a meteor, leaving a hole several meters in size on its wings.

The phoenix screamed miserably, and ugly and greedy human-faced ghost faces gnawed at its wounds, biting them wantonly like a cancer attached to its bones. A large amount of thick smoke rose up, and the phoenix lost its balance and slid weakly towards the ground.

"This kind of attack? The Taiyin system? It's not..."

When Chen Xuan saw this attack, he was shocked and suspicious. He knew that the Black Cat came from the Taiyin system, and he had also seen the purest Taiyin power in the small underworld. Although this attack was similar to the power that attacked Jiang Qinghuang, they were completely different in essence.

"Could it be the [Plague Department Gray Qi]?"

Among the twelve Qi of mountains and seas, cultivators of the Five Elements Qi are the most common and active, while cultivators of the Yin and Yang Qi are the rarest. However, there are various legends circulating, and cultivators of these two lineages occasionally appear.

The gray qi of the plague department is the most special kind of immortal qi, because those who practice this qi are all demons who prove their truth through killing, and there are almost no normal people among them... Wherever they go, there will inevitably be blood and rain, and no grass will grow.

However, the State of Chu had been at peace for a long time, and there was no soil for the Plague Tribe's Gray Qi monks to survive and grow. If the person who took action was a Plague Tribe monk, he must have taken advantage of the window period after the departure of the powerful people to sneak in and harvest the spiritual energy of the Taoist monks!

"Good opportunity! Your Highness Dragon Girl, please use your peerless treasure!" The monsters of the Rain Country reacted and immediately called on the Dragon Girl to take action.

Jiang Qinghuang encountered an inexplicable attack, as if all his soul and thoughts had been taken away, leaving him without any power to resist.

At this moment, the severely injured Fire Phoenix even slid towards this side with her in its mouth, like a living target. There was no better opportunity than this.

"Jiang Qinghuang, the Jiang family is the pillar of the Chu State, but it is the enemy of our clan. I will send you on your final journey!" The dragon girl was very decisive. She immediately raised the magic bow and pulled out a cold and bright arrow from the thunder-patterned quiver at her waist.

"Zheng!"

The bowstring was pulled inch by inch, and the loud dragon roar gradually sounded. Thousands of restless arcs of electricity gathered on the tip of the arrow.

"boom!"

The moment the dragon girl shot out her arrow, a fist-sized rock, surrounded by dazzling five-element fairy light, slammed heavily onto the dragon girl's cute pink and sharp dragon horns.

The dragon girl tilted her head slightly, loosened her fingers, and the arrow deviated and flew out, sliding along the neck of the phoenix and missing the target.

"boom!"

Rocks exploded and shattered on the dragon's horns, and some of the stone chips slid down the dragon girl's snow-white face, passed through her slender neck, and fell into her clothes. Her face was like a piece of pure and flawless jade, which was suddenly made dirty by a big hand.

The dragon girl blinked her big watery eyes, slightly opened her cherry-colored lips, and turned her head in surprise.

"you……"

In the forest, Chen Xuan was bending over to pick up rocks that were handy. He tilted his head and said innocently:

"Eh? I'm skipping stones on the water. Don't look at me. Please continue what you're doing..."

The dragon girl's face was as cold as ice, and she aimed her divine bow at Chen Xuan.
