The capital, outer city.
The headquarters of Huangji Sect.
On New Year's Eve, the great city was silent except for the soldiers on routine patrol. The lights in the palaces were dimmed, as if no one was there as everyone had gone home to celebrate the New Year.
A man in white stepped into the air.
Her long black hair was half tied up, like a pine tree splashed with ink; a white veil covered half of her face, revealing only her slanting eyebrows like a startled swan, and a teardrop mole under her left eye.
Taifu.
She stepped forward, her eyes lit up with divine light, and she saw through the illusion ahead.
The array is stacked one after another, with thousands of curtains set up. The infinite space is intricate and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false. If you take a wrong step, you will fall into a killing array or an illusion array, or even be teleported to the ends of the earth.
The Grand Tutor put his fingers together to form a sword, drew four vertical and five horizontal lines in the air, and then placed his fingers on the chessboard, peeling off the space of the formation layer by layer at a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye.
Compared with the Taiyi Yantiantu inherited from the Yunzhong Pavilion, the formation arranged by the Huangji Sect was child's play. She was proficient in mental arithmetic, and had comprehended the Yin-Yang escape technique. It was easier for her to unravel the numerous formations than to drink water.
However, the Huangji Sect does not need to be sad, as the formation that they carefully arranged is not completely useless.
As a result, the tutor was delayed for a whole cup of tea.
All the formations were broken, and the Grand Tutor entered the Huangji Sect's headquarters.
The scenery changed drastically. Dark red clouds covered the sky and the sun. Countless evil thoughts and malicious intent converged, revealing a single blood eye in the sky.
Blood-red thunder streaked across the sky, and one hundred and eighty stars lit up.
If you look closely, you will find that those stars are actually blood-red round beads. Although the grade of the magic weapon is not high, their aura is connected and they do have considerable power.
The Grand Tutor stared at the changes in the sky, feeling the shocking evil thoughts all around him, and couldn't help but frowning slightly.
If she had not been infected by Lu Bei's aura and had not cultivated the power of yin and yang, she would have been completely unprepared when entering this evil formation and might have gone astray.
By then, the capital city would be a river of blood.
Far away from the capital, the vitality of heaven and earth was in chaos. There was a battle between powerful men in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, which attracted many masters to watch.
The tutor didn't go.
She guessed that it was the Huangji Sect that took action, taking advantage of Fox Er's tribulation to give him a fatal blow.
The Grand Tutor doesn't care about Fox Er's life or death. The fox spirit is very tough and the Huangji Sect cannot harm her no matter how many tricks they use. Besides, Lu Bei, who is full of evil intentions, is waiting nearby, so the only unlucky one will be the Huangji Sect.
The Grand Tutor was just curious about what the Huangji Sect relied on. When they had no chance of winning on the surface, they dared to provoke Hu Er and Lu Bei at the same time.
Now it seems that there is indeed some trouble!
She flipped her palm and the magic weapon Shangqing Sword appeared in her hand.
Two astonishing sword intentions split apart, the upper one was Shenxiao and the lower one was Jiangque. Separated they could destroy the heaven and earth, and combined they could cause chaos in the world with fire, water and wind. The two sword intentions came out at the same time, breaking the heaven and earth in an instant, and breaking the blood cloud into two.
Boom—
Roars like dragons' roars were heard continuously. At the cross-section of the blood cloud, more than ten evil dragons exhaled murderous energy and stitched the blood cloud back to its original state.
The Grand Tutor used his divine eyes to clearly capture the silhouettes of the twenty-four evil dragons in the blood cloud. He said calmly, "So that's how it is. No wonder they were able to set up this formation in the capital without being noticed. The twenty-four evil dragons devoured the Wu Zhou's destiny golden dragon and were aided by the power of the dragon vein. They themselves are part of the dragon vein."
After she finished speaking, she looked into the void ahead, her eyes gleaming with coldness. “The Imperial Sect is quite resourceful, keeping the evil dragon hidden from the royal family. Their patience in hiding is truly admirable.”
Behind the void, black lines outlined the formation, and the blood river ocean was dead silent.
Ninety-nine figures stood in each corner of the formation. The man sitting firmly in the center had a majestic body, three-dimensional facial features as if carved by a knife, and his tiger eyes shot out cold stars.
At first glance, he looks somewhat similar to Zhu He.
The Grand Elder of Huangji Sect, Zhu Yuan.
Last year at Beijun Mountain, he teamed up with Lu Zhou and Zhu Xiuzhu, confident that they would take down Lingxiao Sword Sect. However, he was pinned to the ground and beaten by Lu Bei, and his body was shattered.
If Lu Bei had not been cautious at the time and didn't want to offend Huangji Sect to death, even his soul would not have been able to escape.
Afterwards, Hu Er and Zhu He fought in the air, one saved his godson, and the other protected his nephew. Lingxiao Sword Sect switched to Xuanyin Division, completely breaking away from the jurisdiction of Tianjian Sect and becoming a royalist faction. This battle was finally over.
At this moment, Zhu Yuan looked at the tutor outside the formation with sweat on his forehead. Although there was a void between them, he had a feeling that the tutor saw him and that the words just now were also meant for him.
What to do, fight your way out
It's a dead end, there's no need.
"Godfather, the Blood God Formation is complete, and all the royal family members are under our control. How about calling two of them over and letting the Grand Tutor kill them personally?" The man who was stationed in a formation suggested.
He was a tall and handsome man, and had done business with Lu Bei.
Lin Fengxian, the chief steward of Ningzhou of Huangji Sect.
Zhu Yuan is the adoptive father and Lin Fengxian is the adopted son, but Zhu Yuan has more than one godson, Lin Fengxian. All the ninety-nine people in the Blood Sea Formation are his adopted sons or daughters.
"The overall situation is important. Just wait and see. This formation is ever-changing. It will take at least three to five hours for the Master to advance..."
Snap!
Before Zhu Yuan finished speaking, he saw the tutor put his fingers together to form a sword, peel off the void barrier with ease, and step out to the sky above the sea of blood.
I couldn't even stop her for a moment!
Zhu Yuan was greatly shocked and waved the battle flag in his hand hurriedly. His ninety-nine adopted sons and daughters also waved the battle flags and retreated into the void of the sea of blood.
“Roar, roar, roar—”
The evil dragon was bathed in blood, stretching its hundred-foot-long body across the sky. Twenty-four giant beasts were hovering in the sky, breathing out murderous aura and evil thoughts, trying to lead the Master into endless evil thoughts.
Maybe it was possible before, but now...
The Taifu had a calm expression on his face, and he blew gently on the Qingrui lamp in his hand.
The white pure fire burned the sky and boiled the sea, spreading out, scorching the bloody sky and the earth, making them mottled and exploding. The white spiritual light shone upon everything, purifying the turbid sea of blood and removing the darkness, making it as transparent and unpolluted as clear water.
The Grand Tutor has reached the fourth level of Tribulation Crossing, which is an updated and enhanced version. Zhu Yuan is only at the Fusion Stage, and the ninety-nine adopted sons and daughters range from the Spirit Transformation Stage to the Void Refining Stage. Even if they were tied up, they would not be enough to be slapped by the Grand Tutor, not to mention that she had used a magic weapon.
The white flames purified the world, and the evil dragon bathed in a sea of fire, roaring and rolling in severe pain.
For these evil creatures, Taifu's methods are the most poisonous things in the world.
The flames were engulfing the sea of blood faster and faster. The entire blood-red ocean was covered by white light and the formation was on the verge of collapse. A figure rushed out from nowhere, his fist was as heavy as a landslide, and the rumbling sound of thunder and energy rushed straight towards the Taifu.
A curtain of white light lit up, as thin as a curtain of water, easily dispelling the fierce fist intent.
The Grand Tutor looked at the newcomer without changing his expression: "Zhu Mu, how dare you stop me?"
"The Grand Tutor is the goddess of Yunzhong Pavilion, so of course I dare not do that. But I have no choice but to do it in this situation. It is no longer up to me to decide whether to do it or not." Zhu Mu spoke loudly and waved his hand to set up a barrier behind him.
To translate, I can't beat you and I don't want to do it, please show mercy.
"You are such a coward! You have brought shame to our Huangji Sect."
Zhu Xian tore open the void with his hands, stepped to Zhu Mu's side, and looked at the tutor with his eyes like a hungry wolf, full of desire and eagerness.
To a battle maniac with low IQ, the stunning appearance of Taifu was no different from that of a street picker. He only knew that Taifu was powerful, and that Zhu He had suppressed him in the past, preventing him from taking action. Today, he finally found a legitimate opportunity.
What a pity, in fact, he prefers the hard-fighting style of Lu Bei and Zhu Xiuyun.
"Don't rush to do it, we can talk!"
Zhu Mu hurriedly stopped Zhu Xian, fearing that he would attack without saying anything, and said to the Grand Tutor quickly: "You are a cultivator from Yunzhong Pavilion, and it is inappropriate for you to intervene in the Wu Zhou dispute. No matter who wins or loses today, the winner will have a grudge against Yunzhong Pavilion because of your manipulation of the situation."
Seeing that the Grand Tutor had no expression on his face, Zhu Mu swallowed his saliva and continued, "I can make you a promise. If you give up, you will still be the Grand Tutor, and Yunzhong Pavilion will also..."
"Too much nonsense."
The Grand Tutor interrupted coldly and said calmly: "My will has nothing to do with Yunzhong Pavilion. The opportunity has come. It doesn't matter whether I am the Grand Tutor in the future. It doesn't matter whether you say this or not."
"Is Yunzhong Pavilion really going to go to war with Huangji Sect?"
"If Yunzhong Pavilion has such intention, my master can defeat Huangji Sect alone. It is not a fair victory, so why should we talk about starting a war?"
"… "
Zhu Mu gritted his teeth at the naked humiliation. Zhu Xian's eyes lit up and his fighting spirit became even stronger, almost setting him on fire.
"There's no point in talking any more nonsense. I have just developed a magical power, and I'd like to test its effectiveness with the help of you two." The Grand Tutor held the Taiyi Yantian Diagram in his hand, glanced at Zhu Yuan who was in charge of the formation, and waved his hand to push away the formation diagram.
Before the figure disappeared, the Purifying Spiritual Fire carried a thought, broke through the void and headed straight out of the capital.
—
boom!!!
The wind blew hard, Lu Bei's long hair flew, a golden light flashed in his eyes, and he raised his arms. A strange force penetrated the void, shocking the Huangji Sect's fusion stage warriors so much that their faces turned pale.
The fragments of the Heavenly Book might be a trap, but the character "震" was really useful. There was no thunder in Lu Bei's eyes, only buzzing. He was convinced that he had not used it wrong, so he displayed his magical powers, each time with more terrifying power than the last.
At this time, the royal family's fusion stage had fallen, everyone was seriously injured, and several even had their physical bodies broken apart.
Trapped in the soul, he has lost his mind and consciousness, and it is extremely difficult to reconstruct his body.
After beating the royal family, it was now the turn of the Huangji Sect's leeks. Lu Bei avoided Zhu Xiuyun's pursuit and punched out with both fists. The extremely violent vibration caused the void tide to resonate, and the cultivators and the space in it, together, let out a whine of being overwhelmed by the burden.
"cut!"
Lu Zhou swung his sword, his eyes were blank and emitting scorching white light. The overwhelming sword force enveloped Lu Bei. A bit of cold light condensed all the strength of his body and chopped down Lu Bei's neck like a bamboo breaking.
Ding~~
"It's amazing. The paint almost fell off."
Lu Bei pushed away the long knife at his neck and punched Lu Zhou in the face. Because they had the same surname and Lu Zhou had a similar temper, he showed some mercy and only killed the man by three-quarters.
At this moment, a spiritual fire lit up on Lu Bei's shoulder, and the invisible will turned into several voice transmissions and was sent to Lu Bei's ears.
"At the headquarters of the Huangji Sect, the evil dragon transformed into a demon, and the golden dragon that seized the fortune hid the sky and the sea..."
"The blood array can control the mind and soul, and the royal family and others..."
"The soul of a person in the Tribulation Crossing Stage is very powerful. How could he be easily controlled by others? Even if he could, Zhu He can't do it with his ability."
"Who is it? Someone pushed Zhu He from behind..."
The voice sounded familiar. Lu Bei could hug his tutor for an hour every day. He understood what was said and found an interesting formation at the Huangji Sect headquarters.
So that's how the blood beads are used.
Zhu He is not the bottom level boss, behind him...
Are there any experts?!
"Damn old woman, when did you do anything to me? You can actually enter and exit my body freely. I have always followed the etiquette and have never entered or exited your body."
Lu Bei frowned: "Besides, there are too many things. I didn't ask you to solve the case. How can I, a kind-hearted person like me, have the nerve to do it when I know so much?"
At this point, he looked down intently. All the royal family members looked so strange that almost none of them looked like human beings.
"Oh, it's over. It's okay then."
