Chapter 47: A sword is slashed out, flying with the wind
Everyone's eyes were on the sword in front of Taoist Tiangang. In the sunlight, the blade of the Taihang Sword reflected a cold light. Jiang Yu, Venerable Yanshe, and the Twelve Tianxu Thorns were all terrified.
"Taihang Sword? Longqi Temple... Taoist of Immortality!"
When Jiang Yu heard what Taoist Tiangang said, his face turned extremely ugly.
Zong Tianwu had also seen the ten famous swords and recognized the identity of the Taihang Sword. He was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "It seems that we are not doomed!"
Jiang Yu stared at the Taihang Sword, standing there in a daze.
Since he became an adult, he seldom visited Jiang Changsheng, and their relationship gradually drifted apart. Although he would occasionally hear about the legendary achievements of Taoist Changsheng, he felt that they no longer belonged to the same world, and he did not want to have too much contact with Taoist Changsheng, so as not to drag him into the vortex of power struggle.
I didn't expect that in this place where death is inevitable, Taoist Changsheng would actually take action.
"Brother Changsheng..."
As soon as Jiang Yu relaxed, his legs went limp and he half-knelt on the ground. He muttered to himself, tightly gripping the hilt of the knife with both hands.
Jiang Yu shouted angrily: "Master Changsheng, why are you interfering in my affairs?"
Taoist Tiangang, Venerable Yanshe and others looked around for Jiang Changsheng, but they couldn't find him.
At this moment, a strong wind came from the sky, shaking the trees within a radius of hundreds of feet. Everyone looked up and saw a figure falling from the sky, landing quickly, with its toes landing on the hilt of the Taihang Sword.
Taoist Tiangang did not dodge, but his left hand behind his waist trembled slightly.
He looked up and met Jiang Changsheng's eyes.
Jiang Changsheng stood on the Taihang Sword, overlooking the Tiangang Taoist. His blue Taoist robe fluttered in the wind. He was like an immortal, looking down from above, at all living beings.
Taoist Tiangang couldn't see through Jiang Changsheng, but the other party's appearance made him feel like he was facing a formidable enemy.
Jiang Yu stood behind Taoist Tian Gang and said angrily, "Master Changsheng, Longqi Temple was appointed by the late emperor, and you are the master of my child. Do you want to disobey me?"
He was very panicked, because in his plan, he wanted to absorb Zong Tianwu first and then deal with Jiang Changsheng. Now that Jiang Changsheng appeared early, his plan was completely disrupted.
hateful!
This place is still a hundred miles away from the capital. Jiang Yu set up a killing trap in advance because he was afraid of being discovered by Jiang Changsheng . Unexpectedly, the thing he was most worried about and thought was the most unlikely to happen still happened.
really!
Longqiguan has the intention of rebellion!
Jiang Changsheng ignored Jiang Yu and stared at Tiangang Taoist with an indifferent look in his eyes. He said, "In those years, the King of Qin sent me a lot of snacks from the palace. I have to repay this favor."
dessert?
Jiang Yu and others just thought it was ridiculous, how could it be possible!
Jiang Yu said in a deep voice: "Tian Gang Taoist, are you confident that you can take him down?"
Taoist Tian Gang had no expression on his face. He was silent for a moment and said, "No."
These two words made Jiang Yu's heart sink to the bottom.
Venerable Yanshe said coldly: "Master Changsheng, do you know what power you are interfering with? It's not just the power of the Great Jing Emperor. I advise you to quickly go back to your Taoist temple, recite your Taoism well, and eat your vegetarian food!"
Jiang Changsheng raised his left hand, shocking everyone into taking action.
call out--
A sword flew out from the depths of the woods. It was Gui Liu's sword. The sword rushed out at an extremely fast speed. Before the Venerable Yan Snake could react, it was pierced through the shoulder and he retreated continuously.
The Venerable Snake-Hating was so frightened that his eyes bulged out and his heart and liver were about to burst, but fortunately there were no vital injuries.
"It's you!"
An assassin screamed, "On the day Hong Lie rebelled, it was you who rescued the prince!"
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yu's face changed drastically.
He had doubts before, but Jiang Changsheng had no reason to save the prince, and the character displayed by the mysterious man was completely different from Jiang Changsheng, but the current situation...
Jiang Changsheng said, "Come on together. Today, everyone except the emperor must die. If you join forces, there is still a glimmer of hope."
Along the way, the survival rewards may be greater!
The reason why Jiang Changsheng did not kill Tiangang Taoist instantly when he appeared was for the survival reward.
As for why he didn't take action when Jiang Yu and the other were in danger, it was because Zong Tianwu was capable of handling it. Unfortunately, Zong Tianwu was careless and was poisoned.
His words contained no emotion, but made everyone feel the breath of death.
Taoist Tiangang raised his eyes again, his eyes turned golden, his aura suddenly became fierce, and a terrible gust of wind arose from the soles of his feet, wrapping around his body like a tornado.
"Ji Que of Tianshan died in your hands. If I die today, can I be buried in the hero's tomb?" Taoist Tiangang stared at Jiang Changsheng and said in a deep voice.
He has been in the martial arts world for nearly a hundred years and his intuition is extremely sharp. He knows that he will most likely die in today's battle.
Jiang Changsheng said: "The head of the Grandmaster should be buried in the hero's tomb."
He did not discriminate against the Tiangang Taoist. Everyone had their own stance and pursuit. The five great masters wanted to restore Chu, and that was their choice.
Taoist Tiangang smiled and then swung out his right palm.
With one palm strike, the sky and the earth changed color!
Golden light burst out, shining on the sky and the earth, and an extremely terrifying palm wind erupted. The Venerable Snake-Yan, Zong Tianwu, and the Twelve Assassins of Tiansu were so frightened that they all dodged. The horrible palm wind tore through the ground, rolled up the trees, and the dust flew into the sky, as if the end of the world was coming.
However, facing the Taoist Tiangang, Jiang Changsheng stood still as a mountain, but his robe fluttered wildly. The palm wind was blocked by his invisible spiritual power, causing it to be torn into dozens of long dragons.
Taoist Tiangang opened his eyes wide and sweat broke out on his forehead.
He knew that his opponent was very strong, but he didn't expect that even if he used his unique skills, he would not be able to shake the opponent.
Jiang Yu was almost scared to death. He had seen the strength of Taoist Tiangang. Even with the combined strength of the Thirteen Spears of Tiansu, Taoist Tiangang was subdued in less than five breaths. The leader of the five great masters, a true master of the martial arts, such a master could not hurt Taoist Changsheng at all.
Jiang Changsheng raised his left hand, extended his index finger, and pointed it obliquely at Tiangang Taoist's forehead, less than one meter away.
In an instant, Tiangang Taoist jumped away from Jiang Changsheng.
Now only Jiang Yu was left standing in front of Jiang Changsheng, and he just happened to meet Jiang Changsheng's index finger. The terrifying murderous intent made his whole body cold and he couldn't move.
thump!
Jiang Yu was so scared that he knelt in front of Jiang Changsheng, his face pale and bloodless, his eyes full of fear and despair.
Jiang Changsheng stopped and said, "Your Majesty, why are you kneeling? I said I will not kill you, only the others. They can't escape, and they can't beg for mercy."
Jiang Yu trembled all over. He lowered his noble head and clenched his hands in his sleeves.
Taoist Tian Gang tore off his calm disguise and shouted angrily: "Everyone come together, no one can escape, we can only fight to the death!"
The Twelve Thorns of Tianxu and Venerable Yan Snake are not stupid either. Jiang Changsheng's agility can definitely catch up with them. If they run away, it will be a one-on-one fight.
They roared and rushed towards Jiang Changsheng, and Tiangang Taoist did the same. Fourteen masters attacked Jiang Changsheng from different directions, and the weakest one was at the Tongtian realm.
Jiang Changsheng landed lightly on the ground, then drew out the Taihang Sword. His movements seemed slow, but that was only relative to him. In the eyes of others, he landed as if he had teleported and then picked up the sword.
"Do not disappoint me."
Jiang Changsheng's voice reached their ears clearly, and he raised his sword and swung it, with the tip of the sword pointing diagonally at the sky. In an instant, the sword energy burst out like a mountain torrent, sweeping across the world in all directions, unstoppable!
Jiang Yu and Zong Tianwu only saw Jiang Changsheng suddenly slash out endless sword energy. Zong Tianwu quickly came in front of Jiang Yu to block it, but was surprised to find that the sword energy did not touch them.
A deafening roar came from all directions, the trees turned against the earth, the mountains collapsed, and the ground was cut by the sword energy with shocking cracks.
After three breaths, the sword energy dissipated!
Within a two-mile radius, the scene was desolate. All the trees were cut down, and countless flowers, plants and wood chips were still floating in the air. Dust was flying everywhere, and from a high altitude, it looked like a huge circle rising from the mountains.
Taoist Tiangang, Venerable Yanshe, and the Twelve Tianxu were fixed in place, still maintaining their attacking postures. Blood began to seep from their bodies, and all of them spurted blood and fell to the ground without even a wailing sound.
All dead!
Jiang Yu and Zong Tianwu trembled all over and could not believe this scene.
The former supreme master of the martial arts world, Zong Tianwu, felt that his worldview was shattered. How could there be such a master in this world?
Jiang Changsheng put away the sword, gently blew away the grass debris on the blade, and then put the Taihang Sword into the scabbard.
He walked up to Jiang Yu and helped him up.
Jiang Yu's whole body was stiff, his face was covered with cold sweat, he was extremely and didn't even dare to look Jiang Changsheng in the eye. He had none of the demeanor of an emperor.
Jiang Changsheng patted his dragon robe and said with a smile: "Your Majesty came out for a walk today, but there was nothing unusual. It's time to go back."
Not killing Jiang Yu is also for Jiang Ziyu's sake. When the emperor dies, Dajing will be in chaos. Even if Jiang Ziyu is recalled and supported to become emperor, the states will take the opportunity to rebel. In addition, Gu Khan, Jin Dynasty and other surrounding dynasties may invade at any time, and Dajing will be finished. Even if Jiang Changsheng takes action personally and beheads them one by one, it will still take time to conquer the mountains and rivers and consolidate the imperial power. There are too many variables.
This country is really too vast!
Now Jiang Changsheng no longer takes the Mahayana Dragon Tower seriously. Even if Jiang Yu tipped him off and frantically called for help, he was only helping him prepare survival rewards.
Jiang Yu raised his head, forced a smile, and said, "The Taoist priest is right. I...I should go back to the palace..."
He turned and left, walking very slowly, fearing that Jiang Changsheng would go back on his word. He looked up and the horrific scenes on all sides made him tremble.
After walking for a long time, he dared to mobilize his true energy and ride away on the dragon.
Jiang Changsheng looked at Jiang Yu who was not far away and said, "The Queen Mother's tomb is in Longqi Temple. You can come and pay your respects."
He leaped forward, flew away on his sword, and disappeared into the horizon.
Zong Tianwu was impressed by his demeanor and said with emotion: "Flying with the wind on a sword is truly extraordinary."
Jiang Yu's expression was extremely complicated, and he still hadn't come back to his senses.
…
In the imperial study.
Jiang Yu sat on a chair with disheveled hair and a dull look in his eyes. The table was full of memorials placed haphazardly.
"What? The mysterious master who kidnapped the prince that day was a Taoist priest of immortality? Even Taoist Tiangang and the Venerable are dead..."
Buddha of Difficult Luck had an extremely ugly expression on his face, he and Buddha of Evil Luck were brothers, till now, he still wanted to avenge his brother, but the enemy was so powerful that he was under great pressure.
Jiang Yu did not answer him and remained in a daze.
Nanyun Buddha took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I will go to the Mahayana Dragon Tower to ask for help!"
He turned around and tried to leave.
"stop!"
Jiang Yu called him, Nan Yunfo stopped and looked at him in surprise.
"Don't go...don't go..."
Jiang Yu trembled all over, his voice full of fear.
He knew very well that if Mahayana Longlou came to support him, it would be fine if he won, but if he lost, Mahayana Longlou could escape but he could not, and he would surely die.
He didn't dare to gamble.
Jiang Changsheng was too strong. He seriously doubted that no one in the Mahayana Dragon Tower could deal with Jiang Changsheng.
He thought of how Jiang Changsheng had survived thunder tribulations and raised spirit snakes, and how the late emperor had held on for several years after becoming friends with him. He suddenly wondered if Jiang Changsheng was the reincarnation of an immortal.
Nan Yun Buddha looked at Jiang Yu in disbelief and said, "Your Majesty, are you just going to endure this? After today's battle, he will definitely despise the imperial power. As the Son of Heaven, are you willing to be humble to him forever?"
"This is no longer something your majesty can decide. Longqi Temple must be destroyed. This country belongs to Mahayana Dragon Tower!"
Nanyun Buddha left angrily after saying these words.
Jiang Yu wanted to say something but stopped himself and ultimately did not stand up. Today's battle was still echoing in his mind.
