Chapter 173 Li Hanshan, if you have the guts, let's have a showdown (6k)
Zhou Qing did not answer Sikong Yan's question, but was quickly formulating a response plan in his mind.
Once the situation becomes critical, he would crush the jade token and unleash a full-strength attack from the Soul-Severing Realm. Even if the opponent didn't die, he would be seriously injured.
At that time, he would use the true form of the Golden Peng to escape with his third senior brother and junior sister Lu as quickly as possible.
Although the probability is small, it is the only way. Who would have thought that the Palace Master of Cang Yan Taoist Palace would appear in such a remote place.
One of them killed the other party's four geniuses who had been trained with great effort, and the other even dug up the other party's ancestral grave three times. The consequences are unimaginable.
Seeing the three people's vigilant expressions, Sikong Yan had a calm expression on his face. He slowly said, "Old fellow Xuanjizi predicted that Li Hanshan and Yu Ziqi will have a calamity in the next few years. If they can survive, they can expect to become gods in the future. If they can't, they may die."
"I didn't believe it before, but now that the situation is obvious, I started to believe his other divination."
When Sikong Yan said this, he suddenly took a deep breath.
"That old guy is always so mysterious. Sometimes he says something out of the blue, and you have to believe it. Guess what the other divination he told me was?"
Sikong Yan's tone was calm, as if he was chatting with the younger generation. However, his appearance made Zhou Qing and the other two feel a chill on their backs, and an inexplicable chill in their hearts.
You know, the Eastern Region is in such chaos now, and the culprit is the person in front of you.
Looking at the three nervous people, Sikong Yan smiled and continued, "He told me not to act rashly in recent years, otherwise my life might be in danger. He even reminded me of this many times. Look, his constant reminders have left me feeling uneasy."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing's heart hardened. He took a step forward, forcing a smile on his face. He said, "Senior, maybe he was lying to you. You can definitely try to attack us now to see if it's really as he said. Mainly, I've suddenly become curious."
Seeing that Zhou Qing didn't seem to be joking, Sikong Yan shook his head with a half-smile on his face.
"You remain calm and composed. You're amazing! It seems you have the means to deal with me. Just for this, I suddenly have some respect for that old man."
"Of course, it's also possible that you're acting this way just to make me think you're what I think you are, just to bluff."
"But after all, you killed the four great geniuses of my sect. I can't just let this go. And you, you're so wicked as to dig up someone's ancestral grave. If I don't do something, I'm going to be upset, right?"
As Sikong Yan spoke, he looked at Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
Yan Xiaohu opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't dare to refute anything further.
Sikong Yan looked at Li Hanshan again and said slowly, "The Divine Transformation Realm hasn't finished yet. As the master of a palace, I can't break the rules first. Besides, it would be bad if the elders attacked the younger ones. It would also make me look like a bully."
After Sikong Yan finished speaking, the next moment, he flashed and suddenly appeared on the city wall.
Feng Cheng and Hu Xuantang shuddered suddenly.
Sikong Yan looked down at everyone and said, "Well, I came a little late and didn't see how Yu Ziqi died. If you have time, please tell me in detail."
Although his tone was calm, it revealed a sense of oppression that could not be refused.
…………
With the Palace Master's support, Li Hanshan's confidence soared. He then pointed his black halberd directly at Zhou Qing and said, "As a sign of respect for you, I will make your death a quick one."
Zhou Qing glanced at Sikong Yan on the other side of the city wall with a serious expression. He whispered to the two of them, "Leave it to me, but don't stay too far away from me, or he'll threaten you."
Lu Yaoyao was a little anxious, but Yan Xiaohu nodded and told Zhou Qing to be careful. After all, if the two of them were present, they would probably only become a burden to the fourth brother.
Seeing his third senior brother and Lu Yaoyao walking away, Zhou Qing's pupils suddenly turned golden. Just as he was about to practice the "Emperor Brilliance Sutra" and transform into the true body of Golden Peng to prepare for a life-and-death battle with Li Hanshan, a familiar voice suddenly echoed in this world.
"Li Hanshan, you really have no shame at all. You've been practicing like a dog for so many years, right? You're bullying my junior brother. If you dare, let's have a fight!"
As the voice fell, the next moment, the wind and clouds became strange, and there were lightning and thunder.
A black shadow, as if stepping out of the Nine Nether Hell, instantly appeared between Zhou Qing and Li Hanshan, carrying endless pressure and murderous aura. The aura was so powerful that people couldn't help but feel fear.
Looking at the man in front of him with wildly dancing hair and a pair of hawk-like sharp eyes, Li Hanshan's face changed slightly, and a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart.
He moved his feet and immediately took a few steps back, creating some distance between himself and the other party.
"Big, big brother?" Zhou Qing's eyes were full of disbelief.
The ghost mastiff slowly turned its head, holding a black spear. Its eyes, which originally showed endless dominance and wildness, softened the moment it saw Zhou Qing.
He couldn't help but smile and said gently, "Don't worry, Lao Si, I have my senior brother here!"
Zhou Qing still felt a little dazed, his mind in a mess. Didn’t the master say that you went to the Shengwu Dynasty?
"Senior Brother!" Yan Xiaohu was also excited and shouted happily.
Hearing Yan Xiaohu's shout, Gui Ao glanced at him speechlessly and said, "Just shut up! As a senior brother, it's not shameful for you to let Lao Si stand in front of you!"
Yan Xiaohu's originally happy smile suddenly froze on his face. He felt awkward and embarrassed. He could only mutter quietly, "What can I do? Even if I run, I can't catch up with Lao Si."
Lu Yaoyao was also very excited, and even felt that at this moment, Senior Brother Guimao was like a god descending from heaven, so handsome.
At this moment, the ghost dog's gaze fell on Yu Ziqi's body at Zhou Qing's feet, and he asked in shock, "You did it?"
Zhou Qing couldn't help but laugh after realizing what was happening. He scratched his head and said, "The three of us are together."
"Awesome, you are worthy of being my junior brother!" Guimao gave a thumbs up.
Then he looked at Li Hanshan, whose face had become very ugly, and his eyes instantly became cold, with a bit of sarcasm and disdain.
"Li Hanshan, you've really grown in ability. The last few times I sparred with you, I gave you some face. Did you really think we were even? Humph, what's wrong now? You're bullying my junior brother while I'm away, right? How shameless!"
The ghost mastiff cursed without any hesitation.
Li Hanshan's face turned pale and blue, and he held the black halberd tightly in one hand. The veins on the back of his hand were bulging, and he was obviously very angry. Then he subconsciously looked at Sikong Yan on the other side of the city wall.
Seeing this, the ghost mastiff taunted him again: "What's wrong? You're such a grown-up, but you don't have any ideas when encountering problems? You still need others to nod and tell you what to do? Are you a puppet?"
shhhhhh!
At this moment, five figures came quickly and then landed on the surrounding treetops.
The leading man carried a broad sword on his back. The scabbard was simple and engraved with mysterious runes, giving off a sense of antiquity and vicissitudes.
At this moment, he crossed his arms across his chest, exuding a strong masculine aura.
A woman was standing on the treetop next to her. She had a beautiful face, like a fairy from heaven.
She stood there quietly, carrying a carved longbow on her back, like a frost flower in the cold night, cold and elegant, with a unique charm.
The third one is a slightly thin young man holding a pair of short blades in his hands. A black fox is squatting on his shoulder, with bright and cunning eyes, revealing a sense of cleverness.
The fourth one was a tall and mighty man with a broad back and strong arms, muscles bulging like small hills, a beard like steel needles, and carrying a giant mace.
His eyes were bright, and after scanning around, he grinned, revealing a row of white teeth. There was a sense of honesty and generosity in that smile.
Following closely behind him was a gentle woman holding a pipa harp. She gave people a sense of alienation, as if she were a flower on a high mountain that could only be admired from afar and not touched.
The only thing they have in common is that they are extremely young and exude the aura of the Divine Transformation Realm.
"Ao, do you need help?" The leading man shouted loudly, his voice loud and full of concern, obviously he had a close relationship with the ghost mastiff.
Ghost Mastiff waved his hand and said, "It's just a small matter. Don't bother me, brothers. I can handle it myself!"
After saying this, he turned to look at the city wall, raised his voice, and shouted, "Senior Sikong... No, I should call you Fellow Daoist Sikong now. The puppets you trained are waiting for your decision. If all else fails, let's have a fight."
After Gui Mastiff finished speaking, his eyes were like torches and he shouted directly at Sikong Yan.
This scene made Zhou Qing and others feel excited.
He is worthy of being the eldest senior brother. Now he dares to challenge the leader of a sect directly. Moreover, it has only been a short time since he went out, but he has met such a group of like-minded friends in the God Transformation Realm.
Sikong Yan looked at the ghost mastiff calmly, but a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
There seemed to be a different meaning in that smile, which was hard to understand.
Then, without saying a word, he moved and walked away into the air.
Li Hanshan snorted coldly upon seeing this. Although he was unwilling, he hurriedly caught up.
Seeing the other party leave, Yan Xiaohu and Lu Yaoyao cheered immediately, their faces full of joy and excitement of surviving the disaster.
The Ghost Mastiff slapped Zhou Qing on the shoulder and said excitedly, "Old Mo told me everything. I didn't expect that the Four Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head that I saw that time would be you. Awesome, really amazing!"
Zhou Qingze looked embarrassed.
"The last time you competed with Xuanyuan Yichen and then left, you were only at the Foundation Establishment stage. I didn't expect that in just a short time, you've already reached the Nascent Soul stage. This Four Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head is truly terrifying."
As Gui Mastiff spoke, he kept looking at Zhou Qing, his eyes full of amazement.
"Now you can even kill Yu Ziqi. With your growth rate, I'm afraid you will be able to become a god in a few years. In this case, I won't touch Li Hanshan. He will be your best whetstone!" Ghost Mastiff said seriously.
Zhou Qing nodded. To be honest, after killing Yu Ziqi, he was not so afraid of Li Hanshan anymore.
Not to mention, he also had the jade token given by the Soul-Slaying Realm in his hand.
"Brothers, let me introduce to you my junior brother, Zhou Qing!" Gui Mastiff put away his spear and laughed.
The five people immediately jumped down from the tree and walked towards this side with smiles on their faces.
Feng Cheng and the others on the city wall breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this; the crisis was finally over.
"So, you don't plan to go back?" In Qingmu City, Zhou Qing looked at the ghost mastiff and asked with some confusion.
Ghost Ao nodded and said, "Well, the original plan was to go to the Imperial Capital and find out what they were trying to do by extending their hands to this place. I didn't expect to run into them halfway."
"We have similar interests. We were waiting for Yu Mei, the one with the bow and arrow, so we were delayed until today. It was purely by chance that we ran into you."
Yan Xiaohu couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid that old man Sikong Yan will intercept us along the way?"
Ghost Mastiff said speechlessly, "If that guy really wants to attack you, he can still wait for us, don't worry. Besides, I can escort you once, so why should I escort you a second or third time? It is always better to rely on yourself than on others."
Zhou Qing nodded. Besides, he couldn't delay their plan because of him and others.
"Can you trust it?" Zhou Qing asked in a low voice.
Gui Ao immediately patted his chest and said confidently, "The brothers and sisters recognized by your eldest brother are definitely 100% reliable. You can rest assured. I am quite good at judging people."
Afterwards, a few of them clinked glasses and suddenly fell silent.
"The Five Sects' War will probably last a long time. Now Second Junior Sister has already begun to transform into a spirit. Even you have grown so fast in this war, including Junior Sister Lu!"
As Guimao spoke, he looked at Lu Yaoyao who had been sitting quietly beside him, his eyes full of emotion.
When I came out of seclusion, I found out that the head teacher, Bo Xin, had accepted a new student, Xiaoliu. At that time, he was only at the Qi Condensation stage, but now he has entered the Nascent Soul stage.
For a moment, he didn't know whether he should be grateful for the opportunity for growth this battle brought to everyone, or hate it for bringing so much danger and chaos.
Meeting the ghost mastiff's eyes, Lu Yaoyao quickly smiled.
"Oh, there's one more thing. When I was heading to Lingyun Mansion and planning to take the giant teleportation array, I ran into several groups of people from the Qingyu Immortal Sect. They seemed to be asking about me. What's going on?"
Soon, the ghost mastiff seemed to have thought of something and asked in confusion.
Before Zhou Qing could speak, Yan Xiaohu chuckled and raised his eyebrows.
Since Lu Yaoyao was present, he had no choice but to send a message.
After hearing this, Gui Mastiff suddenly understood, then smiled and patted Zhou Qing on the shoulder.
"So it was you who caused the trouble, and now you want me to take the blame!" Ghost Mastiff teased.
Zhou Qing laughed and said, "Who made you so tall and strong, and your cultivation so fierce?"
"No, when I was your age, I was only at the Golden Core stage. Compared to you, I am far behind!" Ghost Mastiff waved his hand and said with a smile.
Then, they talked about the mysterious black puppets, the tragic death of Luo Xue, and many other things that had happened. For a moment, they were filled with emotion and mixed feelings.
After a night's rest, Zhou Qing and others stood on the city wall, quietly watching the figures of Gui Ao and the other six people gradually going away, and suddenly felt a sense of loss in their hearts.
"I wish I could be as cool as them!" Yan Xiaohu's eyes were full of envy.
Having reached the level of a spirit being, alone, and able to travel around the world with a group of like-minded brothers, go on adventures everywhere, and do justice, is something that makes people yearn for it just by thinking about it.
Unfortunately, the farthest place they have been so far is only Lingyun Mansion.
The entire Shengwu Dynasty had eight counties and seventy-two prefectures.
"Let's go, it's time for us to get on the road!" Zhou Qing turned his head and looked at Feng Cheng, Hu Xuantang and others.
"Take care!" Zhou Qing said.
The two of them saluted quickly, and then the three of them left.
More than ten days later, everyone finally returned to Taiqing Sect safely. As soon as they entered the gate, Sect Master Cao Zhengyang came in person, followed by other peak masters, and everyone had an excited look on their face.
"Awesome, you are really awesome. Bring the corpse here for me to see!" Cao Zhengyang said anxiously.
Zhou Qing was stunned. Is news spreading so fast now?
There was nothing much to say at this moment, so he could only take out Yu Ziqi's body and then explain: "Unfortunately, his Nascent Soul wanted to escape, and given the situation, we had no choice but to kill him."
Looking at Yu Ziqi's body, everyone sighed.
Cao Zhengyang looked at Zhou Qing with a complicated expression. This was a genius who had initially comprehended the artistic conception, and you actually killed him.
If it weren’t for the update of the Cang Yan Dao Palace’s must-kill list, they really wouldn’t have known that Zhou Qing had done such a big thing!
"Junior Brother Mo, I will be proud of you!" Cao Zhengyang said sincerely, his tone full of relief.
After hearing this, the other peak masters all nodded with smiles, obviously approving of Zhou Qing's performance.
Facing the praise from his senior uncles, Zhou Qing quickly said modestly, "Being able to kill Yu Ziqi was not just my achievement. My third senior brother and junior sister Lu also helped."
Cao Zhengyang looked at Yan Xiaohu and Lu Yaoyao again and praised them.
They probably haven't seen that Zhou Qing is already ranked second on the must-kill list, second only to Luo Lingling.
Even Lei Lie of the Golden Thunder Sect and Zhu He of the Green Feather Immortal Sect were suppressed. However, those two also had a preliminary understanding of the artistic conception, which was enough to show how much importance the Cang Yan Taoist Palace attached to Zhou Qing this time.
But this also means that Zhou Qing’s situation in the future may become even more dangerous.
Moreover, the above introduction said that Zhou Qing killed Yu Ziqi alone and offered a very generous reward.
"Okay, go and rest quickly, and don't run around for the time being!" Cao Zhengyang reminded.
Zhou Qing and the other two bowed and left.
Fortunately, on the way back, the contents of the other party's storage bag had been divided equally among them, so it can be said that they made a big profit.
Moreover, Zhou Qing was worried that it would be difficult to explain his fighting ability before, but now he doesn’t need to show up at all. Everyone is guessing which kind of Heavenly Qi he has refined.
At this time, if Zhou Qing said that he was building his foundation in humanity, no one would believe him.
After returning to the room and feeding the old hen, Zhou Qing suddenly felt grateful.
To be honest, if I used the Golden Peng's true form in front of Sikong Yan, I might get into trouble.
The incident of the old Peng King in Canglan Mountain caused quite a stir, after all, there were many people in the Soul-Slaying Realm.
When everyone else got nothing, he happened to have been there, and later displayed the magical power of the Golden Peng. Do you think this is a coincidence?
What if Elder Feng, who carries the Golden Roc bloodline, or Prince Xuanyuan Shuo, knew about this? What do you think they would think? What would they do?
"Or I haven't considered it carefully enough. Although the Emperor Brilliant Sutra has never been used against an enemy, it is currently only in the minor success stage. However, it is already several times more powerful than the Golden Crow Divine Power and the Suan Ni Divine Power. The stronger the person, the greater the power it will create!"
"If I were to use this technique in the future, both sides would be in a fight to the death. At the very least, I can't let more people see it!"
Zhou Qing muttered to himself and made a decision in his heart.
Then, he took out the Shenxu Tiangong token and looked at the small blue dot on the back, as if he understood something.
No wonder the three of them rushed in one after another when I entered for the first time. It turned out that they saw it from here.
I haven’t really studied it in detail before, that is to say, now the number six blue ball is “online”.
Zhou Qing simply placed a high-grade spirit stone on it, took a long breath, and entered.
As expected, the images of No. 4 and No. 5 were blank, but No. 6 was covered with a blue screen.
Zhou Qing waited quietly. About an hour later, a blue ball of light emerged from the screen.
"Number One, you're here!" Number Six greeted enthusiastically.
Zhou Qing nodded: "Just came in, it seems that I failed again."
Number Six laughed. From the light ball came a voice that couldn't be distinguished between male and female, old and young, saying, "There's nothing we can do. It's not easy to enter the restricted area recognized by the Shenxu Heavenly Palace. How about we take a look together?"
Number Six invited.
This is what Zhou Qing was waiting for. After a brief thought, he said, "Alright, I can't get through my restricted area anyway, so I might as well go to your place."
Such a strong contrast, I would like to see, are you the silver-haired woman?
Faced with Zhou Qing's sudden agreement, Blue Ball No. 6 was stunned.
You know, this new number one has always been in a cold and aloof state. No matter who among them sent an invitation or wanted to enter his restricted area to take a look, without exception, they were all rejected.
The sudden promise surprised her a little, but it soon turned into ecstasy.
After all, No. 4 and No. 5 have both been to her restricted area, but unfortunately they were unable to break through even together. Perhaps No. 1 would have a different opinion.
"Why, is it not possible?" Zhou Qing looked at the blue ball number six standing there in a daze, smiled slightly, and asked jokingly.
Number Six quickly replied, "No, no, don't worry. Even if we enter the opponent's restricted area, everyone will be in a vague human-like outline, and nothing will be exposed. Shenxu Tiangong is very clever in its privacy arrangements."
Zhou Qing nodded. The reason he decided to take the risk was that he guessed that his true appearance would not be revealed.
Otherwise, they would have exposed each other long ago, and they would have been testing each other through chatting every time.
In addition to verifying his guess, he also wanted to see what the restricted area looked like that others had seen.
It was impossible for him to take action anyway. The worst that could happen was that he would waste thirty medium-grade spirit stones. After all, Yu Ziqi's storage bag had filled his small treasury with a lot of money.
"Please!" As Blue Ball No. 6's mind moved, ripples appeared on the screen where she was. Seeing this, Zhou Qing didn't hesitate and dove in directly...
