"Hurriedly leave, young apprentice!" Yet He You Tian was overjoyed.
After blocking Guan Liang's attack, he swung his sword at Mao Suzhu, breaking his pursuit!
No southern gate, I leaped over the courtyard wall, dared not any pause, ran south wild.
In a blink of an eye, I had run a considerable distance.
There are no prickles behind me, shouldn't Mao Suzhu be intercepted by He You Tian?!
Just about to stop and take a breath, a shiver ran from the bottom of my heart and made my scalp prickle!
Following instinct, I darted to the right!
Twang! Twang! Two sounds of breaking the air, two copper swords shot at the spot where I stood previously.
Behind, from the direction of the gate of Tianxian Dao Field, five figures rushed towards me!
All five were red-robed elders, and the one in the lead was someone I recognized. It was this red-robed Taoist who "led" me when I first climbed Jujushan before encountering Mao Yi. However, I only recognized him by sight and didn't know his name.
"That's why Miss Si Yan said they came prepared, the real person's perception is different, it's exciting." Lao Gong's face had some tightness as well, he added on: "Keep your distance and kill them from afar, otherwise they will kill you, master, decisive!"
My feet moved faster, but my heart was heavier.
Kill the Taoists of Jujushan?
To be honest, except for Mao Yi who had a death wish, the others on Jujushan... At most, they were eccentric and greedy, self-proclaimed high and mighty.
From a moral standpoint, it's not wrong for them to take on me.
If I were to randomly kill their red-robed elders...
One is that the five of them are against me, and I'm not sure if I can kill them all. Two, this is a true grudge that never ends.
As long as I can leave the scene, Mao Si, Mao Suzhu, and Guan Liangfei will not have an unending grudge with He Youtian and Si Yan.
Since they lost the advantage of the Nightglow Cave Nose, they still have to swallow it.
In reality, the Nightglow Cave Nose is not really theirs.
To put it another way, Lao Gong's earlier guidance would inevitably have Tang Wu and Liu Taiyin keeping an eye on Jujushan, so as to prevent them from taking action against the Shenshao elders of Lei Ping Tao Guan.
My thoughts are as fast as lightning, and my descent is even faster!
The forest on the mountains is dense, the shrubs deep and thick, but also because it is too quiet, I can't hide my figure, behind me is relentless pursuit!
"How long before the noble arrives!?" I asked Lao Gong quickly.
"Heading south, there must be one, but exactly when I don't know!" Lao Gong replied.
I: "..."
"Thanks to that stupid Shenxiao monk, you got to sleep for several days. Otherwise, you wouldn't have this tired appearance. Master, if you don't want to fight, just run faster and faster!" Lao Gong kept muttering nonstop.
"You don't have to keep swearing at them as they've helped us a lot."
To be honest, there's a lot of chaos in my mind. Saying a few more words might help calm me down a bit.
"Uh... then it's not an egg monk anymore... what should it be called? It's a bit of a brainteaser." Lao Gong is still muttering.
The mountain road wasn't as steep anymore. I didn't know how far I had run, but the trees around were no longer so tall, and gradually the area began to become more open. The mountain rocks were jagged and rugged.
"Shen Xian Luo! You can't escape!" The hoarse shout came from behind, and the five red-robed elders from Jujushan were even closer to me...
Someone has already started to chant incantations, it seems they want to use magic!
If this continues, I'll be caught within the next few minutes!
"It seems I really can't escape... No... Hiss... No, that's not right..."
Lao Gong looked around left and right, his eyes staring bigger and rounder.
Suddenly, I saw a tree in front of me burning intensely.
Some shrubs around were also ignited, making crackling sounds.
"Mountain fire?"
Lao Gong's tone changed sharply: "The fire is at its peak, the nobleman will appear here! Wait! Wait here!"
I suddenly stopped, and just happened to stop in front of that tree!
However, there were no shadows of people around the tree, not even a ghostly one.
The heat from the flames hit my face, and there was a pungent smell of burning.
In that instant, the five red-robed elders scattered to form a tight encirclement, trapping me in the center!
Lao Gong kept sighing, "Sigh, sigh."
He hasn't been this terrified for a long time.
With one hand gripping the Gaotian staff and the other holding the Gaotian sword.
I handed over both crucial real person's divine weapons to He You Tian. For a time, the means on my body became less and less, and were extremely thin.
"Humph, Shen Xian Luo, noble?"
"Running down the mountain, are you waiting for the noble to save you?"
"The master of Yunjinshan Tang Wu is your noble, but he still doesn't dare to help you! Because of you, it will destroy Yunjinshan! You are already on the verge of destroying four-principle mountain!"
"As for the ancient Qiang City, it's impossible to save you! The most righteous Taoists from the Liu family, not killing you is already showing great mercy!"
"You have betrayed the Taoists of Jujushan, and you will surely die today!"
The red-robed master shouted angrily.
Suddenly, there was someone behind him!
Qi Youyou!
Qi Youyou's arms reached out, ready to lift his head!
At the same time, the elders on the other two sides swung their swords!
The copper sword flashed past, and Qi Youyou failed to catch hold. Instantly, his body was pierced by two skeletons, shattering on the spot!
The red-robed master who almost got hit looked even more surprised.
"Indeed, you have kept ghosts! You deserve to die!"
"All you junior disciples, listen up, form a formation!"
Under the command, the other four elders and the leading red-robed master chanted spells together! The incantation was forceful!
"Fire Deity of the heavens and earth, extinguish all laws! I hereby invoke the Sheng Xian Luo True King's edict with a triad of Bao, worshiping the true king of Sheng Xian Luo to descend, with incantations as the basis, incense as the guide, ignite it here, burn rapidly! Haste thou as a command!"
With the incantation, a large number of talismans were shot towards me!
The first few, rustling as they burned, the number of these talismans was far beyond what I could use my opening incantation!
Lao Gong kept sighing, "Sigh, sigh." In awe: "Luo Zhan? This can't be possible... Lo Zhan... Die, die... The fire gets hotter and hotter, master, they want to burn you to death..."
Clearly, things were not unfolding as Lao Gong had calculated, and he was slightly thrown off his stride.
But now that the situation has come to this, it's impossible to just sit and wait for death.
Just as I raised the Gaotian staff, I started an incantation and swung the Gaotian sword,
"Emperor Yu decrees, summoning you, the Thunder God. Quell the fiery stars, following my journey. Upholding the celestial will, commanding all spirits. Pursue souls, seize spirits, subdue fiery demons. Master of the palace of the sun, noble of the star mansion. I act under imperial command, saving the people. Holding talismans and scriptures, protecting altars and courts. Any who dare not submit shall be beheaded by my sword and burned by fire. Haste thou as a command!"
As the incantation resounded, the Gaotian sword moved like a shadow.
The burning talismans that were about to approach me were instantly cut, extinguished, and black shards of powder scattered in all directions!
Among the Four Rules of Taoism, there is a fire-quelling spell. I used to always think it wasn't very useful, after all, in the process of annihilating ghosts and bodies, fire itself is part of yang energy, so why would you need to quell the fire?
Ah, so this technique is used during Taoist competitions! It's a Taoist divination spell!
"Sky blue, land grand, worshipping the five ghosts and their ghost soldiers to the altar, stepping on flying dragons in the clouds, iron chains and shackles follow me. Confused children of the souls capture soul boys, ghosts follow my commands. Catching souls and souls can not live forever. Worshipping Eastern Five Ghosts to..."
The five red-robed Taoists gave me no time to breathe and recited incantations again.
That was the method Ma Yi used against me at that time, able to summon five small ghosts!
"Master, I can't take it anymore! Take it easy and give us a hard hit! If the noble doesn't come, we have to be our own saviors! Next time we should eat some teachers to build up strength. Old Luo Zhan is going to hurt lives!" Lao Gong squeaked.
