Chapter 852 Gathering at Xingshang River (2)
Chaos is like the deep sea.
Shallow water, medium water, deep water, with clear layers, give birth to all things.
Just as Lu Yi was in the garden, watching the garden being attacked by the two great saint clans, and the three daughters of Qingyou and others being attacked by the giant bee clan, outside the ancient city of Loulan, above this point of time and space, transcending this point of dimensional coordinates, climbing to the conventional sense of the "higher level", that is, the so-called "ascension" dimension of Liangyitian...
It consumes a huge amount of energy.
Spending endless years.
A huge concept.
Consume endless resources.
Climbing, climbing as hard as possible, transcending layer after layer of dimensional membranes. In these dimensional membranes, some are barren, some are fertile, some are vast, and some are narrow. Layer after layer of spatial dimensions that are not suitable for the gestation of living beings have become layers of barriers, just like layers of solid rock 'shells' in thick rock strata...
After breaking through in this way, finally, a bright light appeared.
This is an indescribable world.
Just like the plankton in the deepest layer, they have survived many disasters such as water pressure, temperature, light, nutrition, and countless hunting by creatures of all sizes. From the deepest and most barren deep sea, they finally came to the surface shallow sea with bright sunshine, mild temperature, and all the perfect environment, which gave birth to abundant nutrition and hundreds of millions of species cheering and cheering . They came to the surrounding areas of the islands with abundant resources and all kinds of creatures competing freely in the frosty sky...
The strange light contains clear fluctuations of the Great Dao.
It was like the real avenue waves running across the void.
Waves of the Avenue beat softly, like the heart of blood, running through the entire world, evolving into the most ordinary starlight visible to the naked eye, and evolving into vast oceans of stardust as rich as mercury.
Dozens of huge rays of light like mad dragons entangled and transformed into a magnificent light gate, covering the ruined world.
This place has been destroyed into a mess, but it is still picturesque with clear water and green mountains, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. At first glance, it looks like an exquisite bonsai condensed in the void by a master craftsman. Every part is carefully carved and contains incredible Taoist charm.
Such a beautiful world was shattered into pieces, with floating mountains and broken sacred trees everywhere. In the middle of the originally roughly circular world, a huge black palm print penetrated the entire landmass. This huge palm print occupied about 30% of the original landmass, causing devastating damage to the entire world.
The closer you get to the palm print, the more barren and desolate the earth becomes. The original mountains and rivers have all turned into vast deserts, with yellow sand swirling all over the sky. Countless horrible poisonous insects and snakes are wriggling comfortably in the wind and sand.
A little further away, among the broken mountains floating in the air and the huge remains of the sacred tree, some messy building debris lay crookedly on the ground and floated in the air. Occasionally, you can see sections of shining city walls, which stubbornly emit strong prohibition fluctuations. On the surface of the city walls, there are also lines of natural avenue talismans looming, like the body of a dead dragon, coiled between heaven and earth.
The style of these buildings... If Lu Yi were here, he would be able to discover that these dilapidated buildings, damaged city walls, etc. are exactly the same as the architectural style of the ancient city of Loulan, with no difference at all.
The wind of chaos blew around, consuming the last bit of vitality in this world, causing the death and barrenness brought by the palm print in the middle to continue to spread to the surroundings. When the Gobi Desert spread to the entire world, this world would completely become empty and become a real death zone.
A roar sounded, and a low roar came from the light gate in the sky. In the strong light, two giant purple-gold portals appeared. With a surge of tremendous force, the two giant gates slowly opened. The vast, thick and incredible spiritual mist surged out like a great river, like a cannonball hitting the landmass below, shaking the landmass with a diameter of about a million miles violently.
“Damn it!”
A clear and loud scolding came from the light gate.
Three horses with wings on their backs, all silver and white, incredibly agile and majestic, more than ten feet long from head to tail, like white dragons, flew out of the light gate. They used transparent silver ropes to drag a floating palace with divine light behind them. The bright golden palace flew out of the light gate with a roar. In front of the palace, a young man wearing a three-foot jade crown and a purple-gold striped robe with starlight, handsome and elegant like a god, looked at the broken land below, his eyes twitching violently.
He flipped his left hand and took out a strange instrument made of countless rays of light. It was jumping and flashing. Its shape was quite similar to an abacus, and its function was the same as an abacus.
His right hand fiddled with the rectangular device, and with the crisp "ding-dong" sound, the young man's face drooped completely: "The loss is heavy... How should I report this loss? Hey, hey, do I to pay out of my own pocket to make up for this loss? It's simply, outrageous... This, this..."
Then, the young man started to complain.
What about the concubine No. X who just gave birth to a child, and it is the critical time to nourish the body and take the magic pill to lay the foundation for the child... What about the concubine No. X who has taken a fancy to the palace in a wonderful place, crying and wanting to buy it with a lot of money, and has been making a fuss for several years... What about the concubine No. X who is kept outside, competing with a girlfriend for wealth, and just burned a lot of money...
What kind of family members are not up to the task? Their own sons and nephews indulge in drinking, whoring and gambling, spending a lot of money...
There is also a family ancestor who has recently fallen into the "God's Maze" and is trying his best to break out of it. During this process, the old man is a "number one tyrant", all kinds of wine and women, tyranny and stupidity...
"You really want to quit!" The young man looked at the broken land mass below with a sad face, and said quietly: "We have arrived at the site, it's time to work... Hurry up and survey it. How was the Loulan Pass destroyed? Who did it? When was it done? Find it out for me, find it out..."
The young man stamped his feet fiercely, smiled bitterly and said with a sad face: "Loulan Pass is an important frontier town, it cannot be left vacant, it must be rebuilt... But this reconstruction, the city defense infrastructure... the population replenishment... the deployment of troops... all of this... all costs money!"
"If it weren't for the money allocated from above, this post of guarding Loulan would be meaningless and a pity to give up... Hey, hey, why bother?"
As the young man complained, the main door of the hall opened, and a large group of men and women wearing tall crowns and uniform starlight robes strode out. They were surrounded by faint starlight, and they rose into the air one by one and quickly came to the vicinity of the destroyed landmass.
Mysterious restrictions continued to fall in all directions, and blurry lights and shadows emerged from the broken mountains, broken sacred trees, and collapsed building debris. As those powerful and magical restrictions continued to connect, the lights and shadows gradually became clearer and more complete, eventually covering the entire landmass.
Then, the young man's exclamation resounded through heaven and earth.
“It’s over!”
"What a huge black pot!"
"Our family is going to lose a lot of money!"
"How could the God King who guarded the Morinzhi Heaven, who killed Shangguan and blatantly defected, escape here?"
"How could the Prince of Taiming and his personal guards be here too?"
"The Emperor Taiming died here?"
"What a joke, the prince of Taiming is actually the drinking buddy of the guardian god of Morenzhitian? He came here to help the guardian god of Morenzhitian escape?"
“But, but, the Patrolling Forbidden Divine Guards actually, actually… are here, along with the Emperor Taimi and the Morinzhi Heaven Guarding Divine King, being, being, being…”
The young man, as well as the men and women around him, all had livid faces, with cold sweat oozing out of their foreheads like pearls, which turned into a colorful rainstorm, falling on the broken land.
"According to the law, there should be 129,600 soldiers stationed at Loulan Pass. If they form a divine formation, they should be able to protect the son of Emperor Taiming and the deputy governor of the Patrolling Divine Guards. But... but..."
"My dear third uncle, you are just collecting empty salaries. It is enough for you to collect 70% of them... 129,600 Loulan guards, you actually collected the empty salaries of 127,000 people. There are only 2,600 regular Loulan guards in the huge Loulan Pass..."
“This, this, this…”
“Haha, haha…”
The young man and the men and women around him were all stiff and pale, like frozen zombies, with extremely ugly expressions.
It's not shameful to draw a salary without doing anything.
Who doesn't eat empty salaries in Zhoutian? As long as nothing happens, the years are peaceful, it's just a matter of how much share you eat. But this uncle who was sent by my family to Loulan Pass, his ability to eat empty salaries is too wild!
When was the last time the Loulan Guards were inspected?
The last time my family counted the Loulan Guards, there were still more than 60,000 official Loulan Guards in the entire Loulan Pass, and less than 50% of them were paid in vain, which could be called a "model of integrity"... But this dear uncle, he has only been in charge of Loulan Pass for a few years, how dare he do this?
The 129,600 regular Loulan guards were forcibly reduced to only 2,600 people due to the lack of pay!
That's fine. As long as the people don't report it and the officials don't investigate, there will be no problem as long as nothing goes wrong!
But, something went wrong!
Loulan Pass was breached...
That would be fine. Although Loulan Pass was breached, it did not affect the family's direct jurisdiction and did not cause too bad an impact. As long as some adjustments were made, this little thing could be easily covered up.
The problem is…
The Emperor Taiming, what a damn scourge!
Why is he here?
There is no news!
I haven't received any news at all!
As for the hunted Morenzhitian Guardian God King... and the Patrolling God Guards who came to hunt him but were rudely stopped by Emperor Tai'e at Loulan Pass... They were also life-threatening matters, but compared with the death of Emperor Tai'e, what were they?
Why would the Emperor Taimi appear here?
The information just displayed in the light and shadow picture was very clear and understandable. Although the attacking enemy was powerful, if the Loulan Guards were fully organized, the 129,600 Loulan Guards, with the help of the city defense restrictions of Loulan Pass, would be enough to protect the Prince of Taimi and send out a distress signal and wait for enough reinforcements!
It was precisely because the people at Loulan Pass were so "crazy" and "too imaginative" in taking the empty pay that the defense of Loulan Pass was insufficient, leading to the death of Emperor Taimi's son.
This guilt!
“I can’t bear it any more…” The young man wiped the sweat off his forehead and murmured, “I can’t bear it any more… The Prince of Taiming, he, he, he…”
Before he finished speaking, the light gate above suddenly flashed.
A huge silver mirror shaped like an eye replaced the light gate. Light flowed in the mirror, and terrifying divine power like the power of heaven burst out and directly imprisoned the Pegasus, the hall and the young man and his entourage below.
A translucent figure, composed of a faint crystal light, shuttled out of the treasure mirror, like a weightless phantom, slowly falling from the sky. As the figure gradually descended, the terrifying divine power became heavier, and the young man and the accompanying men and women were suppressed little by little, causing their bodies to "crack" and their bones and internal organs to almost completely shatter.
"Mercy...Mercy..." The young man's eyeballs bulged out, and very thin bloodshot lines bulged out of his eyeballs, almost bursting. He looked at the translucent figure pitifully, and tried his best to squeeze out a begging sound from his throat.
"My son!" The transparent figure sighed softly.
“Naughty.” The figure muttered in a low voice: “After being naughty for so many years, I finally lost my life... Fortunately, I was also quite naughty when I was young, and I had many children. Therefore, the death of a son, even if it was my most beloved son... I can still bear the death of only one son!”
"If it were those other old guys, they would have only a handful of sons and daughters. If one of their sons and daughters died at Loulan Pass... Hehe! Even if you exterminate their clan, it would be difficult to quell their anger."
"It's just that, although I have many children, this is my most beloved son after all. He died here, no matter what the reason was, no matter whether he was wrong or not, even if everything was his fault, it was ultimately your fault... Since it was your fault, you must bear the price..."
Colorful feathers condensed from large patches of sunlight fell from the mirror like snowflakes.
In the heavy snow that fluttered like illusory feathers, large groups of girls with beautiful figures, gorgeous faces, flawless bodies and no flaws at all stepped out.
These girls were born with extremely beautiful looks, and behind them was a pair of colorful wings that were several times larger than their bodies and were slowly flapping.
Colorful rainbows surround these girls.
They were smiling, with the extremely standard compassionate smile that is unique to the heavy metal statues of the Virgin Mary in the temple, looking down at the young people and their group below with compassion.
A moment later, these girls suddenly had some flower baskets in their hands.
They reached into the flower basket, pulled out handfuls of colorful petals and scattered them casually. Suddenly, petals fell all over the sky like rain. These petals fell on the land mass below, and immediately turned into strands of colorful Dao rhyme that bloomed slowly. The collapsed land mass immediately regained vitality, and a large sea of flowers rolled and rose. The whole world was bright and beautiful, and it had turned into a sea of light and flowers. There was also a rich fragrance rolling, turning into a "fragrant sea".
A clear whistle came from afar.
Right beside the dumbfounded young man, a soft voice rang out: "The Great Emperor Taimu has come from afar, I am sorry for not welcoming you... Ahem, even if I am impolite, the Great Emperor's personal ceremonial guard is a bit too exaggerated..."
"Tai Xiu (xiu means bad smell), you say I am boastful?" Emperor Tai Mi looked coldly at the thin green smoke beside the young man, which was flickering and swaying rapidly like algae in a torrent.
Green smoke rose, and the air was filled with countless scents.
Sweet, bitter, spicy, fragrant, smelly, sour, and numb... all the fragrances, odors, neutral and strange smells that you can imagine in the world are all mixed together... These smells are mixed together, and after being purified by a strange Taoist rhyme, they are transformed into a strange smell that no matter where you are, what your cultivation level is, whether you have blocked your perception, or not, it will still invade your body, seep into your soul, permeate every corner of your body, and even erode all concepts of your past, present, and future!
This smell is full of terrifying aggression.
Wherever it passed, even the solid rock below, the lively floating clouds, the bright light in the sky, the rich fragrance... everything was corroded by this rich, mixed, changeable and unpredictable breath.
Emperor Taimi snorted coldly, and endless light rose around him.
The silver mirror above their heads blinked like an eye, and clear, bright light illuminated the world. High-pitched hymns came from the mouths of those girls with wings on their backs. Along with the hymns, the clanging sounds of armor colliding also continued to ring out. Teams of majestic warriors, as hot as the rapidly burning sun and full of domineering intentions, flapped their huge wings behind them, and quickly poured out of the mirror.
Compared with those girls, these warriors are taller and stronger, with three pairs of wings on their backs even larger and filled with more domineering and powerful power.
In just a short breath, more than 10 billion soldiers poured out from the magic mirror and formed a giant military formation above the small Loulan Pass land mass, covering an area ten times larger than that of Loulan Pass.
The wisp of green smoke sighed faintly: "Oh, you are so blind. I was just teasing you, why did you make such a big fuss?"
"Isn't it just that a son died?"
"You said it yourself, you have many sons and daughters, and you wouldn't feel bad if one died!"
"Moreover, your son is hooking up with the guy from Morenzhitian. This news has spread... Hehe, if it weren't for your son stirring up trouble, how could the guy from Morenzhitian escape here? He almost escaped from the territory under our control. If he really defected successfully... This is a big event!"
"If you really pursue this matter, you won't end up well."
"You've lost your son, and you've completely cut off all ties with this mess. You've taken advantage of me. I'm telling you!"
"Alright, alright, stop scaring people here... Although the Linghu family has a bunch of inexplicable termites, they have worked hard for me for many years and are loyal. If you scare them, where can I find such loyal and useful people?"
When the young man and his accompanying men and women heard what the Emperor Taiyu, who was like a wisp of green smoke, said, they were all moved to tears and knelt in the air crying, and kowtowed to the wisp of green smoke.
Emperor Taiming snorted coldly: "All, know?"
A wisp of green smoke swirled around, outlining a hazy and illusory figure of a young man. He sat down in an indecent manner on the top of a floating mountain covered with colorful flowers, crossed his legs and smiled, "What do you think? This matter has come to this point, who can it be hidden from? You know exactly who wants to deal with Mo Renzhitian, just like me."
"Unless you really want to fall out with that person... Otherwise, it was your son who took the initiative to intervene and seriously messed up other people's affairs. This is a direct provocation... This is not your intention, right? Therefore, if you kill your son to sever the cause and effect, you will not suffer any loss!"
"Let's value peace?"
Emperor Taiyu smiled and said, "Stop pretending to investigate your son's death... unless you have other intentions?"
Emperor Taimu narrowed his eyes and said, "No matter how much, you have to give me some compensation. After all, let's put one thing on one thing. My son died on the territory of your subordinates, how can I not have face?"
Emperor Taiyu also smiled brightly: "Let's put it this way. This is not wrong... Then, what compensation do you want?"
The light is lingering and the smoke is rising.
The two emperors and the countless soldiers deployed in the sky disappeared out of thin air, and the silver eye-shaped mirror also disappeared.
The kneeling young man from the Linghu family slowly stood up and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He looked up at the sky, at the giant light gate that had returned to normal, smiled bitterly, and shook his head gently.
A handsome man who looked somewhat like the young man came over and asked softly, "Uncle, is this over?"
The young man's cheeks twitched violently. He was silent for a long time and shook his head gently: "Oh, this matter is over? Haha, haha, haha... If it can attract those two clones to come, do you think this matter can be over?"
"I'm really itching. What kind of event could it be that could actually, actually, alarm the two great emperors?"
“Tsk!”
The young man shuddered all over. "It's terrifying to think about it. We must not get involved. Luckily, we have the support of Emperor Taiyu behind us. Otherwise, today would be the day when all nine clans of the Linghu clan would be wiped out... We can't think about it. We dare not think about it. Anyway, we have to do our job well... Loulan Pass must be rebuilt. But the funds for the reconstruction, as well as the manpower for the reconstruction... Hmm!"
The young man clattered the abacus-like instrument in his left hand. He gritted his teeth and calculated carefully for a long time. Finally, he shook his head with a sad face: "This, this, this... this hole, how can it be filled in a short time? This can only be... Huh? Huh? Alas? Alas!"
The young man bowed and nodded toward the sky, listened respectfully for a while, and then straightened his back solemnly.
"The real body of Loulan Pass was actually banished to the lower world."
"Since the original body is still intact, then let's salvage it."
"Every brick and tile of this kind of heavy frontier formation costs a lot... Let's save as much as we can... And by the way, tsk tsk..."
"This Loulan Guard needs to be completed."
"But the Loulan Guards need to recruit 129,600 soldiers. The money shortage... the equipment shortage... this, this... this... the cost is huge, huge!"
"Then, let's follow the practice of one Loulan Guard with twelve escort soldiers. The cultivation of these escorts is just ordinary... but if it is a formal organization, these escorts will also require a sum of money. Only these slave soldiers, uh, hehe!"
"Slave soldiers...slave soldiers are not so easy to capture!"
"Hmm, Loulan Pass, is it in the lower world? Tsk tsk, the cost, the benefit, the risk... I still have to discuss it carefully with the old guys at home. This matter must be done beautifully, otherwise..."
Colorful feathers fell from the sky again.
A beautiful girl with two wings and twelve six-winged soldiers quietly walked out of the light gate.
The girl slowly landed in front of the young man and said calmly, "Thank you for locating the remains of Loulan Pass. We are following the order of the Great Emperor to recover the remains of the Emperor's son, as well as the many treasures bestowed by the Great Emperor on the Emperor's son."
The young man was slightly stunned and was about to answer when a faint light flickered in the light gate. Dozens of men wearing black armor, blood-red cloaks tied on their backs , and with a cold and stern aura like butchers and executioners, came out one after another.
The man in the lead had a dark glow on his face, like a mask, covering his face, so he couldn't see what he looked like. He came down in front of the young man and said calmly, "No need for us to elaborate, right? We have been ordered to recover the bodies of our fallen colleagues, their equipment, and their identity seals. These items must not be left in the lower world... At the same time, we must confirm the life or death of the traitor Morinzhitian Guardian God King..."
"This is a matter of great importance. Please quickly locate the remains of Loulan Pass to facilitate our voyage to the lower world."
The young man pursed his lips and was about to speak when the light gate flashed again. An old man, no more than three feet tall, with white hair and white beard and a kind-looking white robe, waved a small whisk and floated out with more than a hundred men and women in feathered robes.
The old man in white robe floated down from the light gate with a smile, his eyes swept over the winged girl and the black-armored man, and nodded with a smile: "I am here by the order of heaven to go to the lower world. Thank you for your help!"
The white robe of the old man was sparkling with starlight, and two rays of starlight swayed on the jade belt around his waist, condensing into a palm-sized seal and a jade plate with gorgeous patterns.
When the crowd saw the seal and jade plaque on the old man's waist, they all bowed to him and called him "Laojun" respectfully.
Among the crowd, only the black-armored man at the head had a bit of resentment in his eyes. After paying his respects, he sneered at the old man and said, "The old man is going out in person. Could it be that he doesn't trust the actions of the Patrolling Divine Guards?"
The old man smiled very brightly, with kind eyes, and looked as kind as the grandfather next door.
But the next moment, his two clear and kind eyes suddenly turned into a dark green color that was filled with devilish energy. He stared straight at the man in black armor with his fierce eyes and chuckled, "What... did you say?"
The old man floated up and came in front of the man in black armor. He gently poked the man's chest with his right index finger. Each hit made a loud "clang" sound, splashing countless sparks, and poked glaring, distinct deep dents on the beast head's throat on the man's chest.
"If you are useful and capable, can you allow the rebellious and rebellious Mo Renzhitian to escape here?"
"If you are trustworthy and loyal, will the higher-ups launch a purge against you, the Patrol God Forbidden Department?"
The green in the old man's eyes became deeper and richer, and finally his pupils turned into two extremely thin dark green lights. Two green magic thunders blasted out silently and struck directly at the face of the man in black armor.
The man in black armor gritted his teeth and stood still, allowing two extremely thin magic lightning bolts to strike his cheeks.
With a muffled sound, the black light on the face of the black-armored man was shattered, revealing a slightly dark face with very regular features. The magic thunder fell, forcibly opening two very fine wounds on his cheeks. The lightning penetrated his face and exploded, blasting out two thumb-sized gaps on the man's face, and a bit of blood plasma as sticky as jade ointment oozed out, and a rich blood fragrance containing a majestic life essence rolled out.
In the blink of an eye, the flesh and blood began to move, and the face was restored to its original state.
The black-armored man had a stiff face and clasped his fists towards the old man: "Have you calmed down, old man?"
The old man in white robe stared at the man in black armor for a long time, then he chuckled. The green in his eyes dimmed a little bit, and his eyes returned to their original clarity, brightness, kindness and gentleness.
"That's right."
"That's right."
"You little kids, you must be respectful and reverent. You must also know the time of the day and understand the will of heaven... Whose heaven is this... Whose earth is this... You really don't understand?"
"Be good, or else, the Grand Commander of your Patrol of the Heavenly Forbidden Gods Department, haha! You'll be in trouble for the same reason as before!"
The man in black armor lowered his head, and the black light on his cheeks reappeared, completely covering his face and his eyes, which had become stiff and cold, but contained some kind of wild emotions, like a giant crater covered by an iceberg.
The young man from the Linghu family coughed.
"In that case, haha, you all are going to the lower world? Then, I wish you all a safe journey. Hey, we need to lock on to the remains of Loulan Pass. We still need a little bit of preparation. Please take a rest."
The ancient city of Loulan.
At the confluence of several tributaries of the Xingshang River, the Nine Lotus Treasure Boat floated quietly on the river, with wisps of gray-white mist covering the entire hull. There was no human figure on the huge hull, and the entire Nine Lotus Treasure Boat was like a ghost ship, exuding a chilling chill that made people's hearts palpitate.
The deepest cabin in the Nine Lotus Treasure Boat.
At the end of the long corridor that was millions of miles long, a tiny bit of blurry starlight was faintly visible on a pitch-black metal door. Passing through this metal door that was thousands of miles thick, there was a vast and boundless void inside.
A half-bloody head was suspended in the void.
From all directions, surging spiritual energy and chaotic tides of heaven and earth emerged out of thin air, torn from the outside world into this deep void by invisible forces. A tattered starlight flag loomed above this broken head. The flag was like a monster, swallowing up the endless energy coming from all directions.
After being transformed by the flag, infinite power turned into drops of light and rain, falling drop by drop on the broken head.
If this head is completely restored and the blood on its surface is wiped clean, it can be seen that this is a handsome man, even as beautiful as a peach!
However, half of its head was missing, and it was quite damaged by the inexplicable attack. Sticky and dirty blood kept flowing out of the wound. This half-head looked extremely hideous and miserable, and there was a tremendous amount of resentment that kept pouring out of this head like a torrent.
Suddenly, the only remaining eye in the head opened sharply.
A divine light flickered in his eyes, instantly illuminating the entire void... Low thunder rumbled from all directions, and the small half of the lips of this head moved, making a terrifying loud noise.
"No, something's wrong, something's wrong!"
"This feeling, this feeling..."
"This breath, this breath..."
"It's the bloodline of our family... It's the source of our Linghu clan's power... Someone powerful in our family opened the anti-planetary gate..."
"What a bunch of bastards! They only think of me now. It's been so many years. It's been so many years..."
"Woo woo, didn't I just take some free money?"
"Isn't it just that you have some handsome men in Loulan Pass?"
"I, I just, I just... I was a bit dissolute..."
"Why did you cause me such a big mess? Why did you let me suffer like this?"
“Woo woo, you bunch of bastards, you finally remembered me… I want to go back, I want to go back… I want good wine and handsome men, I want… I want…”
“Someone, someone, come…you bunch of bastards, quickly set up a reception formation, set up a reception formation… invite the mighty of our family to come and rescue me!”
“Woo woo!”
A certain Saint King of the Scorpion Clan, Saint Son Shuo of the Giant Ant Clan, and Princess Chimei, who had been captured alive and had a lightning and fire shackle around her neck, led their armies in a full-scale attack on this small garden.
A scorpion army of hundreds of millions of people.
An army of one hundred thousand giant ants.
The yellow wind blew up the sand, the poisonous gas was hidden with its sharp edge, and the overwhelming attack was like a flood, crushing towards the small garden.
The glass monk showed fear on his face.
Even though he had amazing cultivation, controlled twelve complete avenues, and was a 'Twelve Heavens' level Buddha, facing an army composed of hundreds of millions of powerful insects, quantitative change directly led to qualitative change. Even the Buddha did not dare to confront this earth-shattering power head-on.
Princess Chimei screamed in horror—her father, her marriage partner, had actually abandoned her!
Give up on her!
Without caring about her life at all, he brazenly mobilized his troops and launched an attack!
The cold-bloodedness, cruelty, ruthlessness, and complete instinct-based behavior of the insect race were now clearly visible.
Princess Chimei screamed at the top of her lungs, then quickly lowered her voice and whispered to the Liuli monk and the beautiful woman about the clever changes in the scorpion army formation outside, as well as several flaws in the scorpion army formation.
The 'real father' who put his own life at risk and launched an attack without any regard for his own safety...what else can you do with such a real father?
The Liuli monk looked at the beautiful woman with a stiff expression.
The beautiful woman smiled slightly, and giggles rang out from all directions. On the stage, the Hua Dan danced more and more happily, and a small flower spear swung out countless cold lights. The four Wusheng actors who were acting opposite her roared in a low voice, and the pheasant feathers on their heads trembled incomparably happily, swaying a large area of blurred light and shadow.
Several musicians were so excited that they danced and beat drums continuously, with stars of saliva appearing at the corners of their mouths.
Under the stage, the curtain suddenly swung, and with a low whistle, dozens of bald figures with lightning and fire chains tied around their necks rushed out. Among them, there were men, women, old, young, humans, and non-humans... The most distinctive one was a fat pig-headed monk with light pink skin and watery eyes with a peachy aura. As soon as he came out, he stared at the beautiful woman from head to toe, with saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth.
The garden was shaking violently.
Countless green willows were shaking their branches wildly.
Winds of sand, sharp edges, thunder, and poisonous fire fell from all directions and slammed into the garden. Outside, the Xingshang River was shaking with huge waves, and the surrounding manors and pavilions, some intact and some in ruins, were smashed to pieces. The beautiful mountains were directly destroyed by the military formation, and large areas of mountains and rivers suddenly appeared out of thin air, and then turned into ashes under the attack of the military formation.
The garden shook wildly. The beautiful woman's figure became blurred and distorted, and she was jumping violently like a projection.
The figures of the two girls who had just appeared beside her began to ripple and vibrate, with snowflake-like edges constantly appearing on the edges of their bodies, and large areas of lightning flashing violently. And those originally pretty little maids disappeared directly due to the backlash of the ban.
In the garden, the beams and pillars of the stage made slight cracking sounds, and thin cracks were visible to the naked eye. Large pieces of prohibition exploded and shattered, splashing flames and emitting wisps of brilliant Buddha light.
Sitting cross-legged above the garden, the skeleton statue with three heads, nine tails and twelve arms on the cloud platform, its skeletal arms suddenly moved.
Buddha seals cast large radiances, landing on the Buddhist cultivators who rushed out from under the stage curtain. These Buddhist cultivators roared and cursed one by one, and the chains on their necks spewed out lightning and fire, forcing them to jump up and kill the scorpion men and giant ants rushing in from all directions.
The beautiful woman who had been laughing all the time now looked extremely gloomy and ugly.
She turned around and looked at the surrounding scorpion army formations, whispering: "You really don't know whether to live or die... The so-called four holy clans, do you give you face?"
Lu Yi stood up.
He turned around and looked at the surface of the Xingshang River.
On the river, the Nine Lotus Treasure Boat had long disappeared. The huge army was fighting with dozens of Buddha-level masters who had rushed out of the garden and whose cultivation was at least above the "Three Heavens". The world was in chaos, and all I could see was muddy thunder, fire, wind and clouds.
Everything was in chaos. Lu Yi smiled, then stomped his feet and stood up.
He rushed to a height of a hundred feet above the ground and looked in the direction of Yuchan Lake in the distance... Just when the Scorpion Saint King and the Giant Ant Saint Son were talking in the air, he heard Da Huang's barking. What a familiar "woof woof" sound. Originally, Lu Yi didn't want to be so impulsive and wanted to continue to hide.
But he heard the weakness in Dahuang's cry, and the pain hidden in the long cry of the alligator turtle.
Those are the big yellow dog and the alligator snapping turtle that he raised with great difficulty since they were little!
I can't care about so many things, even if the Nine Lotus Treasure Boat is watching on the Xingshang River? In short, I can't care about so many things. Lu Yi flew into the air and looked towards the direction of Yuchan Lake. He saw the huge Xuanwu beast condensing the power of the moon into silver light, resisting the siege of dozens of giant bees!
His eyes were shining brightly as he looked through the sword formation restrictions outside the Qinglin Sword Palace and saw the scene in the green hall in the center.
Lu Yi saw the Buddha of Precious Light and Merit, and happened to make eye contact with him.
Lu Yi laughed wildly.
The Buddha of Precious Light and Merit laughed out loud.
Master Bai Yang glanced over here, his eyes filled with clarity, and he also laughed out loud.
In this situation, in this rapidly changing ancient city of Loulan, it is extremely comforting to be able to meet old friends.
Lu Yi shook his sleeves, activated his magical power of divine feet, took a step forward, and was about to escape to Yuchan Lake.
As soon as he moved, one arm of the white skeleton above fell down, and in the palm of the hand there was a purple-gold bowl with countless cloud patterns on its surface. Lotus petals lit up among the dense cloud patterns, and low Sanskrit chanting sounded through the clouds. The void around Lu Yi suddenly froze, and then was stretched infinitely.
So close yet so far away!
The one-inch space length was stretched to trillions of miles around Lu Yi.
If it were an ordinary cultivator, facing this great magical power, he would have exhausted his lifespan and spent countless years, but would still be unable to break through the spatial cage created for him by the white skeleton.
But Lu Yi, he also comprehended the avenue of space and reached an extremely high level!
In his mind, the picture of the three-eyed god lit up, and the Taichu Huntong Pearl cast a large amount of dim light. Lu Yi's soul roared in a low voice and chanted the mantra loudly. Around Lu Yi, visible ripples in space were violently agitated. He was like a giant Kunpeng that broke into the ocean of the void, causing huge waves!
Wherever the spatial ripples passed, the space stretched by the white skeleton was rapidly collapsed and restored.
The void recovered, and Lu Yi's body shook, and he turned into a ray of Buddha's light and merged into the void. With a flash and jump, he rushed out of the garden.
A weak voice slowly rang out from the white skeleton: "My dear friend, please stay... I have supreme magic and infinite fortune here... It seems that I have a destiny with you, so please... stay!"
Lu Yi didn't say anything. He just tried his best to use his magical powers to break through the void and escape.
The big parrot, the caracal, and the green snake all raised their heads at the same time and looked towards the white skeleton that finally spoke.
The caracal is cold and arrogant.
The green snake is eerie.
These two uncles are not good at speaking.
The big parrot was so excited that it stood up, clasped Lu Yi's scalp with its two claws, and screamed at the top of its lungs: "You thief... I calculated with my fingers, and you are missing a father... You asked your father Lu Yi to stay, do you want to find a real father for yourself?"
"Oh, you really pissed me off so much that I even got your origins wrong... Your mother was born a rotten egg. She was fucked by a thousand drakes year after year, and they turned her rotten egg into egg drop soup. That's how you came into being!"
"You bastard, you have no father... You are a 'natural freak', a 'handsome man raised by the earth', a 'bastard made by heaven and earth', you don't deserve to have a father at all... Your grandfather Lu Yi doesn't like your cheap son!"
"How about you give your bird master a nice voice? Your bird master has so many chirps under his command, it should be easy for him to find eight or ten biological fathers for you!"
The big parrot cursed happily!
Whenever he encountered someone cursing, this guy became indescribably happy. He was so excited that every feather on his body stood up. He almost flew over Lu Yi's head with joy and went straight to spit at the white skeleton.
Fortunately, this guy finally understood the situation and knew that he was no match for this skeleton.
So, you can curse as much as you want and be timid as much as you want.
The louder it cursed, the tighter the big parrot gripped Lu Yi's scalp, and its two claws almost sank into his scalp.
A dark and eerie light shone from the eye sockets of the three skeletons at the same time, staring straight at the big parrot.
This... this despicable curse, even a dead person can't stand it!
Moreover, this skeleton had great supernatural powers and good fortune when he was alive, so he is not completely dead in this form!
"You flat-haired beast, you don't know how to live or die!" One of the skeleton's arms suddenly moved, and a sword sounded as it soared into the sky. The strangely shaped water ripple flaming lotus sword held tightly in the skeleton's palm swung out a black and red sword light, tearing open the void, penetrating infinite spatial dimensions, through the skin and flesh of the big parrot, and piercing his heart.
Not only the present, this sword encompasses the past, present and future. It is intended to kill all the causes and effects of the big parrot with one sword, chop him into ashes completely, and even eliminate all possibilities of his future reincarnation!
The big parrot opened his eyes wide, his small eyes as big as soybeans, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Brother, help me!" Countless fiery red feathers on his body fell off at the same time, turning into large pieces of phoenix true fire that condensed into a lifelike flaming phoenix. With the high-pitched cry of the phoenix, it rushed straight to meet the falling sword light.
The Phoenix's true fire carries with it the meaning of nirvana.
It also controls life and death, runs reincarnation, manages yin and yang, and reverses chaos... It contains the great fortune of the creation of heaven and earth, great mysteries, great magical powers, and great power... Although the big parrot has not fully inherited all the magical powers in its own blood, the power of the phoenix true fire obtained by sacrificing all its feathers is indeed considerable.
With a loud bang, the sword light stood on the flaming phoenix.
The Dao rhythm was surging, and the strange Dao rhythm of slashing the past and the future contained in this sword was forcibly offset by the nirvana power of the Phoenix True Fire. Only the extremely sharp sword light of "slashing the present" fell straight down.
The big parrot was naked, and was covered with goose bumps of various sizes due to the sharp sword light.
He screamed at the top of his lungs: "Brother...save the bird!"
Lu Yu raised his head suddenly, looking at the sword light coming towards him, and exclaimed: "You can actually block his past and future swords... It's not easy... You have really improved over the years!"
Amid laughter, thirty-six white bone gods and demons' relics around Lu Yi flew up. The white bone gods and demons' relics transformed by thirty-six powerful generals including Yu Dianhu formed a small Vajra Buddha formation. The great power of the thirty-six Buddha-level white bone gods and demons was bestowed on Lu Yi. Lu Yi's aura suddenly soared. He held the sandalwood merit staff in his hand and slashed towards the falling sword light with a dragon shadow.
The Sandalwood Staff of Merit was blessed with the majestic power of Buddha. The staff emitted a thousand-foot-long Buddha light and became extremely heavy. With the blessing of Lu Yi's majestic power and the pure 'Way of Power', its power exploded and almost reached the 'Hundred Lands' realm!
With a loud bang, Lu Yi's arms shook violently.
The surge was violent and vibrated, making a continuous "clang clang clang" sound. The violent vibration caused Lu Wu's arms to ache, and the skin on his palms cracked. Large pieces of blood spurted out like volcanic magma, splashing around with terrible heat. The hot blood had just flown out less than a hundred feet away, and Lu Wu shouted loudly and took a deep breath. All the splattered blood and flesh flew back again, bit by bit, and returned to the wound on his palms, and in an instant it was repaired as before.
The void around Lu Yi collapsed, time was in chaos, and everything turned into chaos. He stumbled backwards involuntarily, and was hit by the sword, making him lose his balance and fly backwards for thousands of miles, directly out of the control range of the garden's prohibition, and crashed into a military formation composed of countless elite scorpion people.
The sky was filled with wind, sand, thunder and fire, roaring towards Lu Yi.
The army formation formed by the Scorpion People was crude, extremely crude; brutal, extremely brutal. The powerful generals of the Scorpion People who controlled the operation of the formation were as rough as a butcher who had just graduated to butchering meat.
Lu Fu was clearly no match for them, but when he crashed into their formation, and it was not known whether it was intentional or unintentional, countless attacks focused fire on Lu Fu!
Lu Yi snorted coldly.
The thirty-six bones of gods and demons simultaneously emitted a dull white light. A bone god and demon that was a hundred feet tall suddenly appeared. It waved its gigantic arms in all directions, and tens of thousands of elite scorpion men were smashed into pieces, exploded into a bloody mist, and were swallowed up by these ferocious bone gods and demons.
Waves of attacks fell on Lu Yi.
The monk robes of Du'e and the cassock of Jietuo emitted dense Buddha light, and the Buddha-level attack condensed by the huge army formation tore apart large pieces of Buddha light. Large pieces of thunder and fire rolled up the wind and sand and fell on Lu Yi's body. Only the continuous "ding-dong" sound could be heard. The muscles on Lu Yi's body bulged, and he was truly indestructible. There were only splashes of fire, and no trace of scars.
"My dear donors, I have no grudges against you recently or in the past, so please watch carefully before you fight!"
Lu Yi raised one hand to protect the big parrot that was lying on his head. It was completely stripped of its hair and was using its two bare wings to cover the vital parts between its legs. It looked quite shy!
How could those elite Scorpion people listen to Lu Yi's words?
After all, they are a group derived from insects with little intelligence.
Even if these guys have the cultivation level of Buddha or Buddha Lord, that is only the ability inherited through bloodline. Their own IQ, their own wisdom... is still that of wild beasts, and their thinking is still within the scope of low-level creatures.
They roared and cursed, and mobilized the power of the formation, continuing to crush towards Lu Yi.
A Scorpion general with two beams of light shooting up into the sky behind him yelled, "No grudges or hatred? Did those guys you just killed die in vain?"
Lu Yi sighed and glanced at the Scorpion general.
A Buddhist chant reached the sky.
With just one glance, the void suddenly sank, collapsed, and shattered wherever Lu Yi's eyes were, and then completely annihilated, turning into a black hole with a diameter of three meters. The Scorpion General, who was at the "Two Days" level, didn't even make a sound, and disappeared in the annihilated void black hole. The black hole expanded rapidly and spread, swallowing up millions of Scorpion elites nearby!
With a 'hum' sound, the black hole expanded and then collapsed.
Millions of elite scorpion men disappeared out of thin air. Lu Yi pointed his finger and the black hole broke apart, leaving behind a blood-red relic the size of a human head, compressed to the extreme, condensed from all the life essence, all the spirit, and all the magic power of millions of elite scorpion men!
Lu Yi pointed with his hand, and the skeleton demon transformed by the fish-crazy tiger roared in a low voice, put his hands together happily towards Lu Yi, saluted, and with a sacred and solemn look on his face, he reached out and grabbed the blood-colored relic and swallowed it in one gulp.
The next moment, two pillars of light shot up into the sky behind the skeleton god and demon transformed by Yu Dianhu. His great power increased out of thin air. With a wave of his arms, yellow sand and black wind rolled up in the sky, and millions of elite scorpion men around him were strangled to death again!
In the garden, the beautiful woman screamed at the top of her lungs: "Fahai!"
Lu Yi turned around and waved gently at the beautiful woman: "Donor, please stay for a moment. We are really not destined to be together... Hehe... Donor, please deal with today's disaster first, and then we can talk about other things!"
Lu Yi shook his body and easily escaped from the Scorpion Army with thirty-six white-bone gods and demons.
Countless elite scorpion warriors in formation roared and cursed, and were about to gather their troops to continue to encircle and kill Lu Yi, but the Scorpion Saint King who led the army had already started cursing: "Idiot, don't pay attention to that thief baldy, capture this place first!"
The scorpion army made a big turn, and the sky full of sand, wind and thunder continued to cover the garden.
The Scorpion Saint King and the Giant Wing Saint Son looked angrily at Lu Yi who was leaving, and joined the army with the two tribes' powerful men around them, and fought with the dozens of Buddha-level powerful men who rushed out of the garden.
The Liuli monk standing at the entrance of the garden clasped his hands together and glanced at Lu Yi's back with a mixture of sadness and joy.
"Oh Buddha..." The chains of thunder and fire on the neck of the Glass Monk throbbed violently. He gritted his teeth, let out an unwilling cry of pain, waved his arms and broke into the Scorpion Army formation, starting a crazy killing spree.
Above the garden, a white skeleton with three heads, nine tails and twelve arms had faint light flickering in its eye sockets as it stared straight at Lu Yi who was walking away.
Nine white bone tails suddenly rose up, and nine beast heads opened their mouths at the same time, spewing out nine colors of strange light. The sticky strange light enveloped the sky and earth, covering the void of a million miles around the garden, and completely annihilated the scorpion army and the giant ant army.
The beautiful woman screamed in anger: "You lowly insects, you don't even have the qualifications to guard the door for our master... All of you, die here!"
Lu Yi turned around hastily and saw that the boundless strange light enveloped the entire garden, and even the surrounding fields and rivers were all covered in it. Mist rose in all directions, and ripples were faintly seen on the Xingshang River. In the distant jungle, elegant fireflies slowly floated up to the sky. If it weren't for the occasional screams of dying scorpion men and giant ants, it would have been a peaceful and peaceful night.
All around, there were strange creatures peeking out from behind the fog.
In the pitch-black night sky, there are little bits of faint light floating around. Behind each bit of faint light is a different space, large or small, similar to the Buddha’s kingdom, opened up by some mysterious beings.
There are terrifying creatures peering around in the dim lights.
The faint fluctuations of divine thoughts floated quietly, and gradually approached this side.
There were bold threads of divine thoughts entwined with Lu Yi, and there were also other strange means of detection, lingering on Lu Yi.
Lu Yi snorted coldly, and a blazing Buddha light turned into thunder and swept wildly in all directions.
Cold laughs and howls rang out one after another.
Some bold guys suffered minor injuries, and after carefully evaluating the difference in strength between themselves and Lu Yi, they secretly retracted their tentacles; but there were also some very powerful ones who felt that they could compete with Lu Yi, so they simply revealed their figures from their hiding places.
Then, in front of Lu Yi, on the river, a brothel appeared out of nowhere.
In the brothel, a gorgeously dressed girl poked her head out and gently waved a pink handkerchief at Lu Yi: "My husband, I haven't seen you for three lifetimes, but do you still remember me?"
On the right bank of the river, a small wonton stand popped up. A cat-headed figure grinned at Lu Yi and said, "Uncle, would you like a bowl of heart-warming wonton soup?"
Behind Lu Yi, an oblong oil-paper lantern emerged silently, and a skinny claw held the lantern—it only had one skinny claw… A cold air blew from behind Lu Yi’s ears: “Master, I finally found you… Madam and Young Master are waiting for you in the mansion. Can you please follow me back?”
Lu Yi frowned, and the thirty-six skeleton gods and demons around him, whose bodies had shrunk to about ten feet tall, shouted in unison. The terrifying roars were like thunder, shaking the void and filling the sky with Buddha's light and thunder.
As a result, the brothel collapsed, the stall burned, and the oil-paper lantern behind him turned into a torch with a miserable sound, whistling and escaping into the distance.
Lu Yi laughed wildly and rushed to the edge of Yuchan Lake in one step. He greeted the dozens of giant bees that were whistling and attacking wildly: "Fellow Taoists..."
The big bare-chested parrot jumped up and down excitedly: "Your mother is broken!"
