A fire suddenly broke out in a five-star hotel in the city center. Firefighters arrived in time to control the fire and evacuate the panicked crowd, thus avoiding a catastrophe.
Zhang Dou, who was dressed in a firefighting suit, looked nervously at the flames that had not yet been extinguished, and at Gou Liang, who had set up an isolation barrier, and asked a little uneasily, "What happened? Who is such a frenzied person? Dare to do it in the city center?"
Gou Liang was too busy to take care of himself and didn't have time to answer his questions, so he just asked him to lead the people out before the barrier was closed.
He and Bi Xia didn't dare to underestimate Gu Yangzi's ability, but thinking that Bi Xia had increased his cultivation level by 500 years last night by relying on the evil spirit in the soul-shifting formation, and then relied on the nine-fold soul return tower and the protective vestment, he would also be able to fight against Gu Yangzi 60% chance of winning.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yangzi was even more difficult to deal with than they expected!
I don't know what kind of adventures he has had in the past three thousand years, and he actually possesses a magical weapon that can resist the Nine Layers of Soul Returning Pagoda, so the current situation is stalemate. The two 3000-year-old ghosts were fighting with all their strength, and there must have been a lot of movement. If Gou Liang hadn't stood guard outside the hotel and controlled the situation in the first place, the commercial center might have been blown up by now.
Fortunately, Yuan Qing, Liu Yiyi and Fang Yunshu, the three celestial masters stationed in the capital, rushed to the scene quickly, finally allowing Gou Liang to breathe a sigh of relief.
Seeing the overwhelming ghostly aura rising from the barrier, the coercion of the thousand-year-old ghost made the three celestial masters breathless for a while. Although they couldn't see through the situation of the battle, they also knew that the situation was critical. Looking at Gou Liang, who was trying to maintain the barrier to prevent this evil spirit from leaking out, and his face had turned pale. Together, Gou Liang strengthened the barrier from the four directions of Qinglong Baihu and Zhuque Xuanwu.
It wasn't until several layers of protection were placed on the barrier, and the damage was determined to be isolated within the scope of the five-star hotel, that Yuan Qing and the others hurried forward to ask what happened.
Gou Liang's expression was very ugly, "I was careless."
He untied the nine-storied pagoda from the key chain and handed it to Yuan Qing and the others. The three of them didn't understand what it meant, and input spiritual power under Gou Liang's instructions. After breaking through the blindfold above, they discovered that the nine-storied pagoda in their hands was a fake!
"This, this! How could this happen!"
Fang Yunshu turned pale with shock.
Even if the nine-storied pagoda is not Gou Liang's natal magic weapon, it is still a very powerful holy-level magic weapon, who can steal it with a false one.
Liu Yiyi would feel better soon, and said in surprise, "But what happened to Song Lian?"
Gou Liang nodded solemnly.
Yuan Qing and Fang Yunshu questioned, Liu Yiyi said: "Xiao Meng just came back from Shuangye City today, I think his spiritual power must be seriously depleted, so I wanted to go and have a look. Unexpectedly, I met Song Lian in Qizang Pavilion, and he said he was curious. Xiaomeng begged for a view of the nine-storied pagoda, but Xiaomeng naturally refused, so I told him a few words. I never thought that he would go crazy and steal the real nine-storied pagoda while Xiaomeng was losing his spiritual power!"
"what?!"
"Damn it, this Song Lian is really stupid! Does the Nine Layers of Soul Return to the Pagoda mean you can just play it?!"
Yuan Qing and Fang Yunshu were shocked and angry.
Gou Liang was happy to see Song Lian being blamed for the consequences, and said with a forbearing face: "Now it seems that he is not only curious, but also has ulterior motives! Otherwise, how could he just get the nine-storied pagoda and suppress the ghosts inside?" release?"
It would definitely not be a good thing to achieve the goal with the help of a thousand-year-old ghost.
The three of Yuan Qing immediately figured out the stakes, and racked their brains to think of countermeasures.
Liu Yiyi said seriously: "Yuan Qing, you have verified Song Lian's identity, is he really the head disciple of Changtian Sect?"
Yuan Qing nodded, "With the seal of the head of Dugu, that thing can never be faked."
The prestige of the Changtian Gate can be called the originator of the Chinese Metaphysics School. They naturally have more trust and respect for the members of the Changtian Gate. They never thought that the proud disciple of the Changtian Gate would be such a person with ulterior motives. .
Fang Yunshu said: "Now I don't care what his background is!"
"That ghost was subdued by us at the beginning, and it has only been a long time since it was released. Not to mention that the ghost's resentment has not had time to be purified by the Nine-storied Pagoda, it must be more powerful than before because of being suppressed... Xiaomeng, The nine-storied pagoda is a family heirloom of the Meng family, is there a way for you to take it back? Or do we have to do another gossip formation?"
Gou Liang looked distressed, Yuan Qing shook his head at Fang Yunshu, and sighed: "The soul-shifting array affects the lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. It is so powerful that breaking the array will definitely exhaust people's energy. If you force Xiaomeng now Start the battle, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Fang Yunshu naturally knew it too, but the current situation...
Liu Yiyi's eyes were determined, he looked at the soaring ghostly spirit of the black cloud, and said: "It's really impossible, even if I risk my life, I will never let this thousand-year-old ghost do harm to the world again."
Although Yuan Qing and Fang Yunshu didn't speak, it could be seen from their expressions that they had made the same decision as Liu Yiyi.
Gou Liang felt quite emotional in his heart, even Fang Yunshu was more selfish among the three celestial masters, but in the face of the big situation, he still put life and death aside.
It was not difficult for him to understand such feelings before, but since he came to this world, he has seen too many people like this—whether he is grateful to him for saving his wife, but never blames him for not choosing to save his son Jie, still don't hesitate to transfer the merits of his life to Mrs. He, who has two black cats so that they can have a good pregnancy in the next life, or the old lady who lost her soul last night and is not afraid.
There is always something higher than themselves in their hearts that allows them to sacrifice themselves without complaint.
But now, he gradually understood.
—When there is love, there is fear, and when there is love, there is loneliness and courage.
Staring at the ghostly restaurant on the top floor, Gou Liang said in a deep voice: "Since Song Lian dared to release a thousand-year-old ghost, he must be prepared to check and balance him. Let's just wait and see what happens. If it really comes to a last resort, we can do it with the help of the four of us." , may not be incapable of turning the tide."
The three of Yuan Qing nodded, and now it seems that this is the only way to go.
In the presidential suite surrounded by raging flames, Bi Xia and Gu Yangzi fought fiercely in the ghost flames.
Song Lian was shrouded in Gu Yangzi's natal magic weapon, the Changtian Seal, and was able to escape the ghostly aura of two three-thousand-year-old ghosts. At this time, he was holding tightly the Nine-fold Soul Return Pagoda that he wanted to get out of his hands, trying to use the secret taught by Gu Yangzi to erase all the marks of Gou Liang on the Nine-fold Pagoda, and take this holy magic weapon as his own .
Gu Yangzi has never slackened in his three thousand years of cultivation, and has been the head of fifty-six Changtian Sects in a row. He has countless disciples, established countless achievements, and his cultivation base has greatly increased.
It's just that the merits and demerits of the Dao of Heaven are clear, and the karma on his body cannot be completely eliminated, and it is always a hidden danger.
Originally, the person who tied the bell had to be untied, and all the karma he suffered was caused by Bi Xia. As long as he killed the other party with his own hands, even if he was discovered by Heaven, he would spare him. Therefore, the first thing he did to stabilize his soul back then was to go to the place where Bi Xia was sealed and behead him, but he never expected that he would be stolen after only three hundred years.
After traveling for nearly a thousand years, he searched all over the mountains, rivers and seas but couldn't find him, so he had to settle for the next best thing. He tried his best to win the house and beg for a son, and shared the karma with the soul of the pure white infant spirit.
Seeing that all the karmic obstacles in his body were about to be eliminated, and there was no obstacle on the way to seek the Tao, it happened that something went wrong at this juncture.
If Yun Xian's soul cannot be destroyed, then when she enters the underworld, what he did will be noticed by the Dao of Heaven, and then the karma will only increase exponentially, making his thousands of years of hard work in vain.
What's even more hateful is that it's still Bi Wuzhan who ruined his good deeds!
But he was also glad that Bi Wuzhan threw himself into the trap!
As long as his soul is destroyed and the karma on his body is respected to heaven and earth, not only will the karma on Gu Yangzi be eliminated, but at the same time, this merit will be greater than saving the people of a city or even a country.
Thinking of this, Gu Yangzi made a fierce move.
Bi Xia didn't give in too much.
He holds a long sword, which is clearly a ghost, but the condensed long sword is surrounded by purple-gold charms, which circulates fierce energy and has a strong deterrent effect on ghosts. Bi Xia stayed in the Soul Cultivating Jade for a long time. He was wearing a top-grade vestment. The ghost aura on his body was perfectly concealed and he was able to deceive the Zijin spell, but Gu Yangzi's magic weapon for shielding the aura was second-class, and he could not escape the Zijin Gang. gas attack.
In this way, although Bi Xia's cultivation base is lower than that of Gu Yangzi, he still has not fallen behind in the duel.
Both of them had the determination to kill each other, and fought hundreds of moves, seeing that they could not subdue Bi Xia, Gu Yangzi changed his mind and rushed into the unsuspecting Song Lian's body, and wanted to fight with him. Just the right way to kill Bi Xia.
not good!
Gou Liang's face changed suddenly, and he said anxiously: "Then Song Lian actually wanted to erase the painstaking imprint of the ancestors of the Meng family on the nine-storied pagoda, and take away my magic weapon! I must stop him, and ask three guards for the enchantment."
Seeing him rushing into the will-o'-the-wisp, Liu Yiyi took a step after him, "Master Meng, let me help you!"
Gou Liang shouted: "No, the three-legged formation is indispensable, and Liu Tianshi must guard the eye of the formation!"
Hearing this, Liu Yiyi had no choice but to stop, watching with Yuan Qing nervously that Gou Liang was engulfed by the will-o'-the-wisp in an instant.
Gu Yangzi took Song Lian's heart and soul, held the Changtian seal in his hand, and wrote while writing: "Sanqing Tianzun, use my mighty spirit to cut evil and eliminate demons, with immeasurable merit! The seal bestowed by Changtian, eliminate evil and do everything! Go!"
Gou Liang almost took a step too late. Fortunately, the Jiuzhong Soul Gui Pagoda was produced by the system, and he didn't need to chant the mantra at all. With a thought, he immediately rushed towards the Changtian Seal, which was magnified several times and tried to smash Bi Xia's soul into pieces!
"Bi Xia, come back!"
Gou Liang roared, seeing that Bi Xia had been taken into the Soul Cultivation Jade, he read: "The great sage of Tiangang is mighty and powerful. Go up to the world and cut off the source of evil!"
The nine-storied pagoda was suddenly filled with light, and when the light on the ninth floor came on, countless ghosts in the tower howled, and Gu Yangzi's soul fell out of Song Lian's body suddenly.
He raised his hand to block his eyes, only to see Song Lian lying on the ground without knowing who he was, and under the overwhelming light, he couldn't even possess himself again. In the glare of the light, he only saw the imprint of a fierce ghost on Gou Liang's face, and immediately understood his relationship with Bi Xia, secretly scolding him for helping the evildoers and hating himself for being careless, knowing that Song Lian Daoxing was superficial and never possessed himself, so he missed such an important clue .
Gu Yangzi knew that he would not be able to take down this person and ghost in one fell swoop, so he flew out of the barrier with the Changtian seal immediately.
Everyone in the enchantment only heard a stern shout and shouted down, "The seal of Changtian appears, and all evil spirits are wiped out!"
Immediately, a huge Gang Seal magic weapon fell from the sky, broke through the barrier, and covered the ghost fire!
"mean!"
The Soul Cultivating Jade shattered, Gou Liang hurriedly transferred Bi Xia to the nine-storied pagoda, grabbed Song Lian who was on the ground, and broke out through the window!
At the same moment, the Changtian Sealing Artifact was buckled down, and while the violent gang qi strangled the black qi, the five-star hotel was crushed to pieces in an instant—
"stop!"
"etc!"
"Master Meng!!"
Yuan Qing, Fang Yunshu and Liu Yiyi roared loudly, and were immediately forced back by the blasted concrete.
There was a loud bang, and the sky was full of dust.
Gu Yangzi, who appeared out of thin air, swung Yuan Qing and the three of them away with a flick of the dust fly, and retreated to a safe distance. The dust in front of him immediately stopped when the dust fly flew up, and then fell to the ground.
"What happened here, how can there be the evil spirit of a thousand-year-old ghost?" Gu Yangzi asked, "Didn't it mean that the ghost in the capital has been subdued?"
Yuan Qing asked in surprise: "Brother Dugu?"
Liu Yiyi and Fang Yunshu wanted to rush into the ruins, but Gu Yangzi stopped them, Bian Chang Tianyin retracted, and said: "This place is very evil, you must not approach it until it is removed."
"But Tianshi Meng is still inside!"
Liu Yiyi said anxiously.
Gu Yangzi showed shock, and said: "I was reckless, I didn't expect someone to be in that monstrous ghost."
Hearing a Qingyue voice answer: "Sect Leader Dugu, don't blame yourself."
A person was thrown out of the billowing dust, and Gou Liang jumped out, landed firmly and clapped his hands and said, "I also want to thank Sect Leader Dugu for his help, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to take back that ghost so smoothly."
The fierce ghost imprint on his right face was emitting a strong black hostility. He must have been injured by Gang Sha from the Changtian Imprint just now, and it was in severe pain at this time.
Seeing this, Yuan Qing hurriedly stepped forward to heal his injuries.
Gu Yangzi looked at the people on the ground, frowned and said, "Song Lian? What's going on here?"
In terms of acting skills, Gou Liang would never lose to him. He thanked Yuan Qing and said, "Tianshi Yuan, please get rid of these evil spirits first. The barrier here won't last long, so I don't care."
Yuan Qing also knew the priorities, so he hurriedly called on Fang Yunshu for help.
They had to clean up the remaining ghost energy before the barrier was shattered, otherwise, if it leaked out, people within a radius of ten miles would be affected, causing serious illness and panic.
Gou Liang felt relieved, then kicked Song Lian who was on the ground unceremoniously, and said, "Is this person really senior's apprentice? Hmph, I also want to know what happened. You have so many Magical Artifacts in Changtianmen, but why did he I fancy my nine-storied pagoda! Not only do I want to take it for myself, but I also released the ghosts in the pagoda. I would like to ask my seniors, does Changtianmen teach disciples like this?"
"Xiao Meng! Don't be rude!"
Liu Yiyi saw that Gu Yangzi's face was gloomy, so he hurriedly stopped him, and said to Gu Yangzi: "Master Dugu, you see, this is really not a place to talk. What's the matter, it's not too late to talk about it after we understand it. There may be some misunderstanding."
Gou Liang snorted, stroked the nine-storied pagoda, and smiled provocatively at Gu Yangzi where Liu Yiyi could not see.
When the barrier was released, Zhang Dou and others rushed in, looking at the completely collapsed 30-story hotel, horrified.
Fortunately, these logistics personnel are already experienced in the aftermath, so they don't have to worry about Gou Liang and others. They will soon be transferred to the courtyard.
Gu Yangzi woke up Song Lian, and said sharply: "Sinister, do you have the magic weapon to snatch Tianshi Meng, and have you ever released a thousand-year-old ghost? Quickly and honestly!"
Song Lian's last memory was the battle between his master and the ghost. He was stunned when he heard the words, and then he realized what his master said. Seeing that Gou Liang wanted to beat him up, he immediately shouted: "I didn't, Master! It's clearly—"
"You mean I wronged you?"
Gou Liang plotted against him, angrily knocked down the lid of the teacup, and made a harsh sound of porcelain clashing, not concealing his displeasure at all.
He sneered and said, "Could it be that I gave you the nine-storied pagoda? Could it be that I released a thousand-year-old ghost? You said why my nine-storied pagoda appeared in a hotel nearly a hundred kilometers away from Qizang Pavilion, and why did you?" Why is it there? When I tracked you down, why was the ghost I suppressed in the Nine-Storied Pagoda released? I instructed you to erase the imprint of the Meng family on the Nine-storied Pagoda and let it change its gate? Mr. Song, do you want to Say, did I do all this to frame you?"
Song Lian blushed and opened his mouth to say that you did it!
But facing the accusing and disgusting gazes of Yuan Qing and the others, he couldn't say anything—even if he said it, no one would believe it.
He looked at Gu Yangzi, wanting to ask for help, Gou Liang said coldly: "Mr. Song, what do you think Senior Dugu is doing? Are you going to say that your master instructed you to take advantage of me to wipe your buttocks for Changtianmen and break the soul-shifting array?" , Stealing the heirlooms of my Meng family when my spiritual power is weak?"
"You spitting blood!"
Song Lian cursed.
Yuan Qing coughed, "Xiao Meng, don't talk nonsense."
Gou Liang said with a sullen face: "I almost died inside without knowing why, don't I even have the strength to ask the truth?"
Liu Yiyi's face was also very ugly, and he said from the side: "Yes. The head of Dugu sect and the sect of Changtian sect are kind and righteous, but Meng Tianshi has saved the people from fire and water several times even though he is young. He has made great achievements. Now your apprentice has done this When the nasty things happen, we will all witness them with our own eyes, so please ask Master Dugu to explain to Tianshi Meng and us."
Gu Yangzi couldn't get off the tiger, and clenched his hands in the sleeves of the Taoist robe tightly. He looked at Song Lian, who was kneeling on the ground with a distorted face, and said sharply:
"Song Lian, my master sent you down the mountain to help some celestial masters eliminate evil spirits. What did you do without telling me?"
