Martial God Development Plan

This kind of stimulation is no less than when a Hollywood movie used as background music by a couple when their sexual intercourse is about to reach its climax, but is suddenly cut into the lowest-level but most effective ghost face in a horror movie!

There is no doubt that the two men lost their balance and fell to one side.

[“I succeeded…!”]

Before the middle-aged man could smile, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a silver needle flying towards him.

Volume 5: Escape Part 1: Chapter 15: Traveling Together

E-sports... no, it's the same in all industries, opening champagne at halftime is the most taboo thing.

From the middle-aged man's perspective, this was a sure win. The Soul-Captivating Technique followed by the Lion's Roar was his ultimate move that had ensured his success in every battle. He had relied on it to defeat countless people. Even the hidden weapon thrown by Ji Zhao, he did not take it seriously.

In this situation, if you want to kill him with a hidden weapon, it's as difficult as asking the man with a ghost in his face to pull it out within 0.5 seconds and then accurately shoot it into the ashtray at the bedside... How the hell is this possible? !

Of course, as a veteran with many years of experience, the middle-aged man's body reacted before him. Even though he felt that there was no need to hide, his body didn't think so.

Unfortunately, after the continuous use of soul-stealing martial arts and lion's roar, the middle-aged man's body was in a state of overdrawn internal energy. In addition, he lacked the will to dodge, so the range of this instinctive evasion was not large.

However, in his peripheral vision, the trajectory of the silver needle did not fluctuate at all, and it rushed straight towards this side!

【"Varied......?!"】

The middle-aged man's face changed slightly, and he began to move his body hurriedly. However, it was too late. The silver needle pierced his waist and abdomen directly, and a strange frosty feeling spread immediately.

【"......poisonous!"】

The middle-aged man subconsciously looked at Ji Zhao, but saw Ji Zhao standing there steadily... Ji Zhao was not affected by the lion's roar at all. The reason why he acted as if he was affected was to get out of the middle-aged man's sight and let his hand enter the opponent's blind spot so as to launch an attack!

【“…Why wasn’t it affected by the lion’s roar?”】

However, the middle-aged man did not know that the difference between the warriors of famous sects and independent cultivators was not only in their martial arts techniques, but they also systematically learned some things that seemed a bit messy to independent cultivators, including how to deal with sonic martial arts.

Xiaoyao Feng once gave a lecture on this point himself, but he was a bit too casual in his lectures, and the content he taught was a bit profound, so only a few people actually understood it, and Ji Zhao happened to be one of them.

Although the middle-aged man was somewhat concerned about this matter, it was not the focus of his attention. He was just immune to the lion's roar. With his special internal strength and physical condition, he could find any number of reasons. He was concerned about another thing.

[“From the time I used the soul-stealing martial arts to the time I roared like a lion, it took less than half a breath. He was able to fall down without hesitation and complete the attack…”]

Putting aside the discussion of this extremely quick reaction and the wisdom in dealing with the enemy, what really made the middle-aged man feel uneasy was the "experience".

So skilled, it's as if I've rehearsed this with him thousands of times. Why are his movements so smooth?!

The middle-aged man couldn't think of an answer. He felt a cold and stiff feeling where the silver needle had pierced him. He had been poisoned by this poison before, so he could tell it out quickly.

[“It’s Ice Bone Powder…”]

After realizing this, the middle-aged man turned around and ran without any desire to fight. Ji Zhao and Gu Zhibai knew very well the principle of kicking the drowning dog. As long as they could delay it for a while, the poison would take effect and they would be able to capture the middle-aged man. They looked at each other and chased after him tacitly without saying a word.

However, there is one thing that everyone has to admit.

In the chase, the fleeing party has an absolute advantage. The more complex the terrain and the greater the flow of people, the greater the advantage of the fleeing party. Not to mention that the middle-aged man's cultivation is higher than Ji Zhao and Gu Zhibai, and his choice of escape is extremely slippery. In addition, he has profound internal strength and a certain resistance to poison. Ji Zhao and Gu Zhibai couldn't catch up with him. Even though Ji Zhao had the blessing of the Scarlet God Robe, the disadvantage of the chasing party was too great. They could only watch the other party disappear in the crowd after crossing a street.

"I can't catch up..."

Ji Zhao stopped, feeling a little regretful. After he stopped for a few breaths, Gu Zhibai, who was a little out of breath, caught up with him and said in a rather unbelievable tone:

"Ji... Young Master Ji, is your Qinggong so good?"

Because the Scarlet Divine Robe was a little-known heavenly weapon that only existed in "legends" and had no known efficacy, Gu Zhibai didn't even think of it as a heavenly weapon. He only felt that Ji Zhao's lightness skills were extremely strange and not like those of an ordinary person.

Ji Zhao said: "Luo He's secret teachings... Besides, we didn't catch up with him in the end."

"Yes..." Gu Zhibai paused and asked, "Young Master Ji poisoned you?"

"Of course." Ji Zhao said, "If the hidden weapon is not poisonous, what is the point?"

Gu Zhibai said: "My words may sound a bit vicious, but I still want to ask... Is this poison fatal?"

Ji Zhao shook his head slowly.

"That's a pity." Gu Zhibai sighed and said, "That person doesn't look like someone who will give up. He will definitely come looking for us afterward."

"Yes..." Ji Zhao sighed softly, "It's really unlucky."

"Young Master Ji." The enemy escaped from his hands. Although it was such a serious occasion, Gu Zhibai, who had caught her breath, laughed for some reason. "Why do I always feel that every time I meet Young Master Ji, I will encounter similar bad luck... Doesn't this Taoist Dong have 108 brothers and sisters in his family?"

This cold joke was a bit weird. Ji Zhao wanted to laugh, but he restrained himself and said, "To be honest, every time I meet Miss Gu, nothing good happens to me."

Gu Zhibai opened her bright eyes and said, "But I usually have good luck."

Ji Zhao lied with his eyes open, and he said in a deep voice: "Me too!"

"Since both Young Master Ji and I have good luck, then I think our fates are in conflict." Gu Zhibai paused and added, "But, we have to wait until this matter is over... Young Master Ji also understands that if we are alone, we are probably no match for that man. Although Young Master Ji's fellow disciples are not weak in strength, they have little experience in fighting enemies. I am afraid they cannot face a madman who will do anything to achieve his goal."

Ji Zhao said: "I'm afraid so."

"This place is not close to Luohe Pavilion. Besides, you came out without your master this time, which proves that going back for help is not a good option."

"good."

"That's right." Gu Zhibai nodded gently, "Since we have no choice but to move forward, I will have no choice but to accompany you...to protect you and myself."

Ji Zhao said, "Miss Gu, do you know where we are going?"

Gu Zhibai smiled and replied, "Luohe Pavilion is a model of the righteous martial arts world in the Central Plains. Can you really take me there and sell me?"

Although Ji Zhao wanted to ask what to do if this person still followed him when he got there, after thinking about it carefully, this question was really meaningless. At this point, he could only take things one step at a time.

Looking at Gu Zhibai's smile which showed some interest, Ji Zhao sighed secretly.

[“I didn’t expect it to come to this. I don’t know whether it’s good or bad…”]

Volume 5: The Escape of the Human Race: Chapter 16: True and False

After the other three entered the city and met at Longcheng Inn, Ji Zhao told them what had just happened... Surprisingly, these three were not too surprised, especially Gu Qu, who had an expression of 'I knew it would be like this, this is the price of resurrection of the dead'. Ji Zhao felt that they had completely missed the point. Shouldn't they be a little suspicious about Gu Zhibai's sudden arrival?

In fact, because he knew Gu Zhibai's identity, he had already developed a certain resistance deep in his heart. In fact, in the eyes of Ji Bei and others, Gu Zhibai was Ji Zhao's savior, and also a top genius who could defeat Xiu Yiyin. Traveling with her was simply a blessing from heaven. Who would have any objection to this?

After discussing the matter, several people went to the city to find Wu An and report the matter, but Wu An's strength was mediocre. Ji Zhao estimated that he might be only slightly stronger than Ji Bei, and not as good as Gu Zhibai. Even if he wanted to take care of the matter, he would be unable to do so. They did not have any expectations at the moment. They changed to another inn, decided on the people to keep watch, and rested in Tuigu City for one night. They would set off for Fengbo City early the next morning.

When leaving the city, Ji Zhao looked back and he didn't feel like anyone was watching him.

"It would be nice if I could just get rid of it like this."

This possibility is actually quite high. There was no surveillance in those days and the efficiency of information transmission was extremely low. Moreover, Dong Daoren's brother was considered a wanted criminal of the court and probably had no powerful subordinates. It was not an easy task for him to find Ji Zhao and others in such a big city.

......Ji Zhao, who had drawn the three days of misfortune, told himself that, yes, being found was an extremely low probability event, and he shouldn't be so unlucky.

"By the way, can it be said that I am being dragged down by Young Master Ji?" After a few words with Gu Qu and the others, Gu Zhibai had already figured out the fact that Ji Zhao was an unlucky guy, and immediately started to tease him with a smile.

Ji Zhao was upset when he heard this, but he couldn't find any reason to refute it. Judging from the facts, he was indeed the source of all evil. In fact, the fault was not on Taoist Dong... After all, Taoist Dong was the 'savior' appointed by Jing, and this title did not carry any derogatory meaning. Everything he did was completely correct from the perspective of this world, and even from the perspective of the Yan people. It's just that no one was willing to believe him.

Thinking of this, Ji Zhao suddenly had an urge to laugh.

No one understands the great cause of saving the world, watching the big boss being saved by people on my side who don't know the truth, no matter how hard I try, it's really hard to explain.

"Brother Ji..." Gu Qu's faint voice sounded at the side, "What are you laughing at? It feels so disgusting."

Ji Zhao retracted his smile and used his ultimate move: "You————"

"I don't understand! How can I understand if you don't explain it to me? Why can't you just explain it clearly?" Gu Qu didn't give Ji Zhao any chance to make a move and interrupted him directly.

Ji Zhao had a blank expression on his face: "I want to say, you are such a meddlesome person, you don't even let me smile, are you the king of the world?"

"Tsk." Gu Qu was not angry. She patted Nan Xue's shoulder and said with a smile, "Look, Brother Nan, Brother Ji was right about what I said. He got anxious, just like Master Qiu. I now know how to deal with those who deliberately don't make things clear."

Nan Xue: “…”

Gu Qu urged, “Ask me what the solution is.”

"...I don't ask."

Gu Qu pursued relentlessly: "Why?"

Nan Xue rarely spoke a complete sentence: "I feel like if I ask you, you will say 'you will understand sooner or later'."

Gu Qu was shocked: "I was seen through?!"

Ji Zhao squinted and complained: "You really admit it..."

Hearing these unreliable conversations from his junior brothers and sisters, Ji Bei rubbed his temples with a headache, and couldn't help but complain to Ji Zhao: "You are the source of all evil..."

"What does it have to do with me!" Ji Zhao opened his arms, posing like a god from a new world, and argued, "It was Master Qiu who misused this sentence and ruined my reputation. The problem is all Master Qiu's!"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Qu looked around vigilantly... Every time she said something bad about Han Gongqiu in Luohe Pavilion, she would be caught red-handed. Now she has developed some strange physiological reactions. Although she was not saying bad things about Han Gongqiu now, she still couldn't help but take a look.

Gu Zhibai, who was watching from the side, smiled and said, "I feel that Luohe Pavilion is a very interesting place."

Ji Bei smiled bitterly: "Miss Gu must not learn about Luohe Pavilion from these people..."

As they walked and talked, they arrived at a valley. This was an important trade route. There was a group of bandits hiding there. They were the more reasonable kind. Their leader had conquered the surrounding areas within dozens of miles. All the merchants and escort cars passing by could pay a sum of money to ensure a safe journey. These days, these bandits could not be suppressed. If you suppress them, a group of unruly people will come and kill people and rob them and run away, and the situation will become even worse... It can only be said that even troubled times have their own balance. If you ignore the objective situation and kill the bandits in the name of suppressing the bandits, it is actually a kind of "why don't you eat the meat?" to some extent.

Ji Zhao once traveled across half of China with Han Gongqiu, and was accustomed to this kind of thing.

Soon after entering the valley, several armed men stopped them. Ji Zhao didn't waste any time and showed his Wu Zhi Ling. The deterrent power of this thing is needless to elaborate. It is comparable to the pass that Tang Monk carried when he went west to seek Buddhist scriptures. If you don't let him pass today, you will be risking your life... However, there is no official regulation prohibiting the counterfeiting of Wu Zhi Ling. A few months ago, Ji Zhao used Wu Zhi Ling as a talisman to travel all the way across Shenzhou. This also aroused the evil thoughts of some people. Therefore, some merchants who traveled around had a lot of ideas and made several fake Wu Zhi Ling.

What a coincidence... the mountain bandits stationed in this valley have seen fake ones but never the real ones. What's even more coincidental is that they have heard about "someone forged the Order of Wu".

The leader had his upper body naked, but he was not the pot-bellied guy commonly seen in TV dramas. Nowadays, there are probably not many bandits who can eat like that in the entire Luoyu Mountains.

The man frowned and glanced at Ji Zhao's Wu Zhi Ling, then sneered and said, "Don't you think I'm an inexperienced person and you're trying to fool me with this third-rate fake stuff... Today, you five smart guys must pay enough money for ten people before you can pass!"

Volume 5: The Escape of the Human Race: Chapter 17: The Last Six Cavalrymen

Ji Zhao and Gu Zhibai were both very smart. After hearing the strong man's words, they guessed the reasons in the blink of an eye. They didn't care. It was just the money for ten people. It didn't hurt to pay a little.

However, Ji Bei could no longer tolerate it... Special martial arts can affect a person's character. For example, Ji Bei and Luohe Pavilion's swordsmanship master Huo Shuizhu practiced the Prison-Burning Heart Sutra. Huo Shuizhu made her into a hot-tempered old sister, so much so that during the summer and winter classes, Liu Hanying had to assign an extra mature student to lead the team to prevent her from causing any trouble. If she were here, Ji Zhao would probably not have the chance to take out the Martial Order, as this man would have already picked up a knife and chopped her.

If you want to subdue her, you have to practice the Yin internal energy to a deep level like Liu Hanying... Ji Zhao occasionally felt that this was a bit like a Husky. If they lived in a cold area, their IQ would be high, otherwise they would understand everything.

Ji Bei had not reached the point of Huo Shuizhu, so he had endured it until now. However, after hearing what the bandit said, he could no longer endure it. He thought that he, a disciple of Luohe County Wu'an, was actually being robbed by a group of bandits. He immediately said angrily: "I will give you the money of a hundred people. See if you have the life to take it!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many bandits suddenly became nervous. Gu Zhibai was riding a white horse, Ji Zhao was wearing gorgeous strange clothes. Although they were young, they had good looks and temperament. No one knew whether they were a group of foolish young masters who had not experienced much of the world and had learned a little bit and came out to seek death, or they were disciples of a big sect who had mastered their skills and came out to practice Buddhism.

The leading strong man's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously clenched the sword in his hand.

But before both sides could release their internal energy, a voice suddenly came from behind the many bandits.

"One hundred servings...?"

"It's embarrassing to give so much... But as the saying goes, a gentleman helps others achieve their goals. Since you brought it up, I won't be polite."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man of unknown age. He had a full beard and messy hair that almost covered his eyes. The clothes he wore were tattered and his exposed skin was dry and dirty, with mud almost caked on it. He looked like a beggar, but after this man appeared, this group of outlaws somehow felt like they had found a backbone and moved closer to him.

Ji Bei had a bad temper and shouted, "Who are you? Tell me your name!"

The beggar-like man replied, "A person who should have died long ago, his name has no meaning to him... You guys all look young, and you don't seem to be short of money. Listen to my advice, pay the money, and leave quickly. I don't want to commit more sins."

Ji Bei did not respond, but his burning inner energy began to surge. Gu Qu and Nan Xue did not speak, but they also released their inner energy. They stood on Ji Bei's left and right, ready to face the enemy... This was Liu Hanying's special instructions before departure. If anything went wrong, the opinion of the leading warrior should be the main one. No matter what they disagreed with, they had to talk about it afterwards. When facing the enemy, internal discord and indecision should be avoided the most.

Ji Zhao sighed in his heart. He and Han Gongqiu had walked such a long way without any problems, but why did this happen when they changed teams? Could it be that the unlucky one was not him but Gu Zhibai?

He was in no hurry to release his internal energy. Red Moon's internal energy was treacherous and it would be better to use it for sneak attacks at critical moments.

"This internal energy..." The beggar-like man's voice suddenly changed slightly, "Are you... from Luohe Pavilion?"

There are thousands of kinds of internal skills circulating in this world. It is actually quite difficult to tell a person's background simply by the characteristics of his internal energy, not to mention that Luohe Pavilion does not specialize in any particular skill, but has many inheritances.

Without waiting for Ji Bei to answer, the man started talking to himself.

"This internal energy... cannot be wrong. You are from Luohe Pavilion. So, this Wu Zhi Ling is probably the real thing... please leave."

After these words were spoken, the sturdy man who had previously said that Wu Zhiling was a fake was stunned on the spot, but he still listened to the man and retreated.

Seeing this, Gu Qu and Nan Xue looked at Ji Bei, wondering whether they should disperse their internal energy... After all, in the world of warriors, maintaining the internal energy in a state of readiness is like holding a gun during negotiations. It is almost impossible to communicate effectively in this state.

Ji Bei did not dissipate his inner breath and continued to stare at the man expressionlessly.

The latter didn't care and just asked the strong man: "Whose martial order is this?"

The strong man pointed at Ji Zhao.

The man looked at Ji Zhao and asked, "Whose Wu Zhi Ling is this?"

The same question, but the meaning is completely different. I can only say that Chinese is profound and extensive.

Ji Zhao did not respond. Ji Bei stepped sideways and stood in front of Ji Zhao, saying coldly, "What does it have to do with you?"

"This is very important to me." The man said, "There is only one Martial Order in Luohe Pavilion now, and that is the one in the hand of Liu Hanying, the Frost and Snow Sword. I just want to confirm whether this one is Liu Hanying's."

"How dare you!" Ji Bei was furious, "You think you can call the Pavilion Master by his name?!"

"Hehe..." The man was still not angry. Instead, he reached out and tore off his clothes. There was a shocking wound on his upper body, which stretched from his left shoulder bone to his right abdomen. "I shouted the same thing in front of him. I am still alive and well now..."

This person actually fought with Liu Hanying before? !

Everyone was shocked, but for a moment they couldn't figure out who this person was. Liu Hanying became famous at a young age, having fought many bloody battles. He had too many stepping stones to count.
