Dragon Gate Swordsman

He was the key figure in the transformation of Shanhai Clan into Yangshen Cult, and he was also a mysterious figure that had been elusive for many years... Chongyue even suspected that Ya, the former leader of Shanhai Clan, had died at his hands.

There were no clues, no evidence, no witnesses. Neither the fugitives of Shanhai Clan nor the Yangshen believers who were arrested later knew where Ze came from, and how he managed to make the top leaders of Shanhai Clan defect in such a short time and become Yangshen's loyal servants from then on.

Even the image of Yangshen, who is believed to be worshipped, seems to have been brought by Ze.

In other words, the enemy Ling is facing now is most likely the founder and supreme leader of Yangshen Sect.

She couldn't help but be careful...

"You know about us."

"Yes, and I know exactly what you did back then."

Ze's simple and unadorned clothing and elegant temperament make him look more like a poet than a cult leader. The investigations into cults in the past few years have also proved that he rarely handles things personally, and the development of the Yangshen Cult basically depends on the Yangshen priests.

"But that's all old news. What's the point of bringing it up now?"

He raised his right arm, and the "Ask Dream" staff with a bright lamp hanging on it appeared in his hand. The military advisor's robe was also pulled by some force and began to vibrate violently.

Facing a powerful enemy whose strength and capabilities are completely unknown, Sui Yi did not dare to take it lightly... and Ling, who was serious at this moment, finally shed his usual gentle and unrestrained demeanor, looking like a god of war.

"Anyone in this Yangshen Cult can keep their lives and serve in the army for reform, but you are the only one who cannot."

"How cruel... Tell me, was this the same attitude you had when you drove all your kind out?"

Drive out all the same kind?

Ling found these words puzzling until she finally realized that the "back then" the person in front of her was talking about was not her own past, but the era before she and her brothers and sisters were born.

Sui joined hands with the True Dragon Emperor of the time to drive away all the giant beasts from the land of Dayan… This ancient memory has always existed in the minds of the twelve Sui descendants, and it is no secret among the top leaders of Dayan.

The problem is that the other party doesn't look like a high-ranking official of Dayan at all.

"You actually... Humph, if you want to influence me with this, all these thousands of years of experience will be wasted."

"No, that's not what I meant at all. I just wanted to say something to you... or all of you."

"what?"

"Thank you."

His pupils shrank slightly, and he was completely unable to understand the other party's intentions.

Could it be that... he was thanking the old man for driving away the monsters? But what did this have to do with him?

Ling suddenly didn't want to take action so quickly. Since Ze wanted to continue the discussion, it was necessary to ask for more information, such as... who exactly was he?

Ze is definitely not a human being, nor does he look like the incarnation of a giant beast, and his whole body exudes an unintuitive feeling of decay and oldness.

Thinking of the soldier who was just killed, Ling couldn't help but wonder whether the opponent's Originium skills were related to the concept of "decay".

If so, that would be a bit tricky...

"Are you stalling for time?"

"...No, I just can't understand why you have the confidence to bring your followers to Yumen."

"Confidence? I don't need that kind of thing, and I don't need them. What's the point of keeping something worthless?"

Ling shook his head secretly, thinking that he was overthinking.

This Ze is obviously a complete lunatic, no matter if he is like this from the beginning or has suffered some kind of stimulation, but if you want to find useful information in his crazy talk, it is better to knock him down first and then throw him into the laboratory to skin and dismember him.

The battle started instantly.

Two dancing green dragons suddenly appeared in the air and breathed towards Ze.

The tremendous energy gathered into a powerful shock wave, shattering the bricks of the wall on which the target stood...but Ze was safe and sound.

At some point, a layer of gray mist had been floating around him, and the energy it came into contact with went out of control, turning into a scattered turbulent flow that exploded with a roar.

This is the real reason why the bricks of the city wall broke apart, and Ling would not destroy the defense of Yumen city for no reason.

Then, the strong winds in the air began to condense, forming a giant turbid vortex, which fell towards Ze from above.

"Fancy and fancy..."

This comment made Ling Weiwei raise his eyebrows. Although he himself had no desire to win and was only performing his duty to dismantle the cult, he certainly would not feel happy that his own move "Wu Xiang" was looked down upon.

But at this moment, the gray mist surrounding Ze suddenly stretched upwards, like several parallel swords raised high, easily crushing the vortex formed by "Formlessness".

Unlike most of his brothers and sisters, Ling does not focus on building physical strength, but instead fights through various "magic" abilities derived from his magical powers.

The most versatile "formlessness" is to use the power of dreams to move real things and transform them into the form you need.

Ze launched a counterattack.

After breaking up the highly concentrated vortex, countless liquid-like substances suddenly surged out of the gray fog and flew towards Ling.

She didn't dare to be careless, and Wen Meng suddenly struck the blue bricks under her feet, causing ripples of energy... Soon, the eyes of the two blue dragons touched by the ripples shone brightly, and the scale of their breath expanded several times.

So, the two of them started to "fight" on the wide city wall of Yumen.

The liquid substances summoned by Ze will create a small area of ​​corruption when they come into contact with the city wall. The soil in it will become dry and sandy, the water will decompose into sticky rot, the air will also have a certain foul smell, and even the stone bricks will be riddled with holes after being eroded by the wind.

Ling's expression became more and more serious. Since she was on the Yumen city wall, she could not use her full strength without hesitation, but the other party seemed to be the same.

At this moment, a blazing bolt of lightning suddenly flew from behind Ling and hit Ze.

The violent explosion engulfed his figure, followed by countless smoke and fog bursting out, making the city wall a mess.

"Are you okay, Ling?"

"No problem! You came at the right time, Chongxiao."

Seeing Chongxiao running up from behind with Rebellion in his hand, a hint of joy unconsciously appeared on Ling's face... It was not very obvious, but it was there.

"That person is the Dharma Protector of the Yangshen Sect, the de facto leader. We must not let him escape."

"No problem, I'll help you kill him!"

Sensing Ze's exact location, Chongxiao rushed over without saying a word, swinging his sword.

On the way here, he also saw the border guards who were besieging the cultists... Since the battle situation was basically one-sided, he did not stay there to help, and came directly to Ling's side.

And the first thing he does is the psychic lightning which he has basically mastered now.

The breath of Ze made Chongxiao very uncomfortable... The decayed feeling was as if everything had lost its vitality, and only ashes and dust were left, commemorating the things that once existed in absolute silence.

So he ignored Ling's warning, and after locking onto Ze's position, he directly used his might to split Huashan!

However, it did not have any effect. The gray mist around Ze helped him dodge the attack and stand more than ten meters away.

"Who are you?"

"Someone who will cut you into pieces soon!"

Chongxiao rushed forward again, but he did not use brute force. Instead, he danced his rebellion to perfection.

Naihe Ze's physical fitness was beyond imagination. He could not beat Chongxiao in a fight, but he was very good at dodging and escaping.

But Ling discovered something was wrong at this moment... Based on her understanding, Chongxiao shouldn't be so reckless and impulsive...

Ze's gray mist turned into a sharp sword again, and relying on the advantage in numbers, he fought against the rebels in Chongxiao's hands for dozens of rounds, during which time he also withstood several moves from Ling.

If you ignore his expressionless face, then he was actually at a disadvantage when fighting one against two, and looked a little embarrassed.

"Chongxiao, be careful of his Originium skills!"

Ling still couldn't figure out where the power around Ze came from. She had traveled around this land and seen countless strange or weird Originium skills, but none of them had such a domineering and strong effect.

It’s as if... Ze also possesses the “supernatural powers” ​​of his descendants.

At the same time, as the staff "Ask Dream" continuously converted the energy it released, the space was filled with green air currents or beams of light, forming a barrier like a "field".

The barrier was constantly eroded by Ze's gray fog, and then immediately recovered, like the most brutal tug-of-war. Ze, who was fighting head-on with Chongxiao, actually still had the energy to engage in a consumption competition with Ling.

He must be kept here, otherwise if he escapes, the soldiers and civilians of Yumen will be in danger... This thought appeared in the minds of Chongxiao and Ling at the same time.

Suddenly, a roar resounded through the sky, and several five-clawed flying dragons with huge swords in their mouths appeared on the city wall.

"Chongxiao, if I can break through that layer of defense, can you give him a fatal blow?"

"I try my best……"

Although he said so, Chongxiao was not really sure.

The rebellion in his hand is one of the few objects that will not be corroded by Ze. However, in the continuous high-speed pursuit, Chongxiao once relied on his unpredictable swordsmanship to chop Ze's body, but did not cause any effective damage.

Similar to Yang Yunxing who was deformed by the parasite, Ze's body surface also had a shell and skin similar to that of the Originium worm, and it seemed to have formed a perfect fusion with his body... Chongxiao guessed that this might be a higher level of symbiosis between the parasite and the host.

In other words, the Ze in front of him was more like an Originium worm in human form, not a human being parasitized by an Originium worm.

"Try it first, and if it doesn't work, think of another way."

The battle situation was urgent, and Ling had no way of understanding Chongxiao's hesitation. He directly waved Wen Meng and ordered the Xian Jings to launch an attack.

Suddenly, the wind surged and the sword light became stronger... Xian Jing raised the giant sword in his mouth and slashed towards Ze's body with unstoppable force. The attack was as mighty and powerful as a landslide.

If it weren't for the barrier that had been set up before, the city wall under the battlefield would probably be demolished by Xian Jing in minutes.

Ze did not seem to intend to fight back, but unlike Chongxiao's pursuit just now, Xian Jing's body and attack range were exaggerated, and he was not fighting alone, so there was no possibility of escape. He had to condense the gray fog around him, trying to corrode Xian Jing's giant sword.

There is nothing wrong with the idea, and the effect is indeed obvious, but Xian Jing's giant sword will recover quickly after being corroded, as if four or five E2 Perfumers were tied to his body (fog)

As the gray fog was split by the giant sword again and again, its size kept shrinking until Ze's figure became clearer and clearer.

He had obviously also realized Ling's purpose, and was moving toward the outside of the city wall despite the attack of the Xian Jings, intending to escape from Yumen.

"Tsk..."

Chongxiao gritted his teeth and made a decision in his heart.

Since Rebellion cannot break through Ze's defense, then the destructive power of Ether Void Liukong, which is comparable to that of Ze, will probably not have any effect. Psychic Lightning and Kinetic Impact have already been used in the previous fight.

It seems... I can only try that trick.

Spiritual energy began to flicker in Chongxiao's eyes.

The Xian Jings could delay Ze but could not stop him... The terrifying power of decay had destroyed countless giant swords, and even a few Xian Jings were corroded and turned into scattered light spots and dust.

Ling couldn't help but glance at Chongxiao, feeling a little anxious.

But at this moment, some movement appeared in the dark night sky above the city wall.

The slightly panicked Yumen residents who were urgently evacuated, the border guards who were about to end the battle, Zuo Xuanliao who was commanding the masters in the city to besiege Arachi, and even Xi who had just left the painting world, all looked towards the sky that was beginning to surge.

The wild wind in the desert was attracted by the roaring thunder and soon condensed into a rotating cloud. It slowly sank amid a roar that resounded through the heavens and the earth until a ray of dazzling light bloomed, almost illuminating half of Yumen City.

Soon, something broke away from the swirling cloud and revealed its true appearance in the dazzling light.

It was a giant sword about a hundred meters long, hanging upside down in the sky, and the light it emitted came from the lightning wrapped around the sword... Such a strange sight was fully worthy of the name of a strange phenomenon in heaven and earth, and even the ground at the foot of Yumen was shaking and wailing.

Chongxiao, you...

Looking at Chongxiao, who was holding the Rebellion Sword and pointing it to the sky, as if he was struggling to hold on to something, Ling was completely distracted.

This is definitely not something that ordinary humans can do. Even people of their age may not be able to easily master this move that can cause strange phenomena in heaven and earth.

Are you really human?

This lapse of concentration was not a big deal. Without their "support", the Xian Jings could no longer trap Ze who was trying to break out. The re-gathered gray fog was able to return and carried him quickly to the edge of the city wall, and he jumped out without hesitation.

However, at this moment, the giant lightning sword in the sky moved.

Just like a meteor in the sky, the giant sword of lightning fell straight towards the marsh outside the city wall. The air that was squeezed away was enough to form a violent storm, like a madly roaring ancient beast, which was about to tear apart all the city walls on the Yumen side.

This is the most powerful sword move that Chongxiao can recall now: Taixu’s third style: Meteorite Thunder.

Looking up at the falling behemoth, Ze used the same trick again to gather the gray fog above his head, and was about to slip away, but he was hit by the lightning surging from the tip of the sword.

Immediately afterwards, the giant sword of lightning fell with a loud bang, completely obliterating his figure.

What followed was a terrifying explosion that shook the earth, and even countless residents in the city mistakenly believed that a natural disaster had struck.

This night... is destined to be recorded in the history of Yumen...

……

Ever since Yang Yunxing's body was sent to the laboratory, the person in charge, Fang Jin, has never returned home.

For a scientist who has devoted his entire life to biological research, this never-before-seen distorted parasite is simply a sealed treasure trove, and the secrets it contains are unimaginable.

But the existence of the gene lock is like an unbreakable seal, blocking Fang Jin's team from entering a certain door...

To this end, he conducted various chemical tests on the samples almost without sleep, in order to find any breakthrough points that could be exploited.
