Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 579: Three battles with the waterman

Views:

When Zhao Changhe arrived at the outskirts of Tianya Island, he was more adaptable than Xia Chichi.

All along the way he had been studying the art of water mirror, which was playing with light, not to mention that he had been practicing the Spring Water Sword Technique for two years.

As soon as he saw the island, Zhao Changhe's eyes were able to see through the mist and light and see the location of the real island inside. He could also see that the island was not as big as it appeared from the outside.

There is only one special thing: at this moment the sun has set and the moon has risen, but the rainbow bridge is still there in the sky, as if it were a scene painted on the sky.

"There's something wrong with the Rainbow Bridge..." Zhao Changhe looked at the Rainbow Bridge from a distance and whispered to Sanniang beside him, "Does it sound like what they say, that you can ascend to heaven by stepping on the bridge?"

Sanniang said, "From the perspective of light refraction, if you step onto the island, it would be like stepping onto the Rainbow Bridge from the outside. It also has a symbolic meaning. Once you step onto it, you will enter the end of the world."

Is the end of the world far away

Not far.

People are at the end of the world, how can the end of the world be far away

Zhao Changhe couldn't help but have literary thoughts in his mind, and then he heard Sanniang say: "This place is really strange... The Azure Dragon's meaning is not closely related to water. Earlier, we followed the concept of water giving birth to wood and the Azure Dragon's orientation in the east, so we let Chichi go out to sea once and gain some insights. In fact, the Azure Dragon's meaning should never be found in the water... But this place gives me an extremely strong feeling."

Zhao Changhe also felt strange, not because of these, but because he felt that the remains related to Qinglong should have been excavated almost completely. The fake Qinglong tomb was excavated by Chi Chi's mother, and the ground was dug three feet deep; the Qinglong seal in the Water Curtain Cave in the back mountain was obtained by himself and Chi Chi; the altar mechanism under the Qinglong seal was cracked by himself and Sanniang, and the rejuvenation formula was obtained there. Even the coffin was moved away. According to Sanniang's meaning, the coffin was indeed the body of Qinglong.

This is already so exhausting, how come there is something related to Azure Dragon here, where do so many come from...

Sanniang looked up at the sky, and saw the Azure Dragon constellation flickering faintly in the east: "I'm afraid it refers to the constellation, not the ancient Azure Dragon."

Zhao Changhe nodded. If we were to ask where the meaning of the ancient blue dragon came from, it was obviously from the stars, not out of nowhere. If what we got here was the meaning of the stars, then we had come into contact with the origin of this direction.

No wonder Xia Longyuan asked his daughter to come here to seek a breakthrough. This is indeed a great opportunity for Chi Chi to get a glimpse of the triple secret treasure in a short period of time.

The premise is that she has to be able to understand it. It is useless to let primary school students read the Chinese Academy of Sciences papers in advance...

While the two were discussing, Tang En was moving the boat forward, approaching the range where the light was distorted.

Zhao Changhe originally planned to let Tang En stop for a while, observe slowly, and even ask the fishing boats nearby. However, the closer they got, the more they discovered that there seemed to be movement on the island.

A woman in white clothes passed by under the moon and stepped on the treetops, as beautiful as an elf.

Zhao Changhe was staring so hard that he couldn't take his eyes off.

Chi Chi... Every reunion can give people a new sense of surprise, but this time what I feel is loneliness and determination.

When you are far away from home, how can the world be far away

Sanniang glanced at him sideways, feeling so jealous that she didn't know how to express herself.

No matter how late Chi Chi is in other things, she is the first one to know and fall in love with him. For a long time, the girlfriend in this stinky pig's heart was Chi Chi. Even now, when he looks at his eyes, they are still as gentle as seeing his first love. No wonder Zhuque gets angry when he sees Chi Chi. He can't fight for her, so he can only bully her to comfort the mistress's heart...

Sanniang sighed: "You..."

Just as he was about to say this, Zhao Changhe suddenly jumped up in anger: "Fuck! Chi Chi is not exploring the secrets, he is being hunted! What bastard dares to chop down my Chi Chi!"

Sanniang: “…”

"Tang En! Bed crossbow!"

"… Your Highness, we can't see anything."

"No need to see, just shoot in that direction!"

Sanniang frowned slightly. Her cultivation was much stronger than Zhao Changhe's. She was keenly aware of the strong auras of ill intentions around her, but she couldn't distinguish them carefully... She felt that rushing in like this was not the best option. It was really strange. Chi Chi had always been cautious, so how could he fall into such an extremely disadvantageous situation of fighting alone...

But she couldn't possibly stop Zhao Changhe from rescuing her. The purpose of her going out to sea was for Chi Chi. Theoretically, she had to protect Chi Chi at the cost of her own life.

Tang En ordered the crew to set up the crossbow, but there was no way to calibrate it. They just blindly fired in the direction indicated by Zhao Changhe.

With a "bang" sound, the crossbow was fired, and Zhao Changhe disappeared. Tang En: "?"

Sanniang shook her head: "He went out with a crossbow. You should be careful outside. It's best to hide in a safe place... This battle is very risky."

Before she finished her words, she disappeared.

Tang En: “…”

No, who is this mistress who has been held in the cabin for several days? She usually seems to be as lazy as a turtle, but when she gets serious, she is so fast that we can't even find her... She seems to be stronger than the first seat!

… …

Zhao Changhe, who was standing on it, made a slight adjustment in the direction of Tang En's crossbow. When it really entered the battlefield, it accurately pierced the head of the fishman leader. Zhao Changhe did not stop for a moment, and leaped over with his sword, heading straight for the water man in the center of the lake.

After fighting so many battles at sea, he knew very well that wherever the sea creatures gathered, the water man construct was the absolute core. Although it could be considered to act autonomously, the Sea King could see anything he wanted to see through it, and could even use it to take action. It would be right to just go and beat this thing up.

This is a constructed life form with triple secret treasure strength, but after these battles, Zhao Changhe has clearly understood that it is actually no match for a true triple secret treasure human. A construct is a construct after all, and its combat intelligence and adaptability are relatively rigid. It can only be considered a "fake" triple secret treasure.

And my progress in the water element has been very obvious these days.

The first battle took place on Taiping Island. I drew my sword and cut the water, but I couldn't even feel the feedback of its force. I suffered no damage and it was all in vain.

The second battle took place on Dong'an Island. He was able to chop the enemy with one blow of his sword, but was unable to withstand the recoil. So he handed the battle over to Sanniang, and he was responsible for Hai Changkong.

This was the third engagement.

"Zhao Changhe... why are you everywhere!" This brand new water man actually knew who this was. He didn't dare to use his body to cut off his water supply, so he quickly reached out and slapped the side of the knife.

There were ripples on the water, and although the knife did not cause any damage, Zhao Changhe was not knocked away.

Zhao Changhe's left hand Dragon Emperor drew a circle silently, just enough to block the water droplets splashing from the water man, without letting a single drop of water leak out.

At the same time, the soul sea exploded with the whisper that Xia Chichi had just felt, which was like a tight hoop that made people feel upset.

The little man in the soul sea who was held and rubbed by Sanniang every day had been rubbed bigger and bigger without knowing when. He sat cross-legged in the soul sea and opened his eyes.

An invisible wave spread across the soul sea and blew across the little man's body. Waves of mysterious symbols lingered around him, as if they were impossible to start with, and gradually dissipated without a trace.

Facing the most troublesome mental invasion from the Sea Emperor, we resisted!

Both offense and defense are evenly matched!

Xia Chichi on the tree was stunned. When did Zhao Changhe become so strong… Not to mention that he could see through the messy light here as accurately as seeing a naked girl. Just now, he couldn't withstand the water column that the water man simply rushed towards him. That was an absolute crushing victory in terms of strength. But now Zhao Changhe was able to withstand it evenly. Could it be that he had achieved the triple secret treasure

Zhao Changhe's voice was reaching his ears at this time: "Don't be dazed. I will hold this thing back, and you try your best to break through the fishman and crack the sculpture in the center of the lake. This battle is very complicated. Whether you can seize the initiative depends on the gold content of you, the Azure Dragon Saint..."

Xia Chichi came back to his senses, turned his icy soul, cut the throat of the water man who was attacking him, and at the same time jumped up and walked into the center of the lake on the water.

The water man pointed.

Suddenly, waves arose in the center of the lake, huge waves surged and rushed straight towards Xia Chichi.

With a "bang", Zhao Changhe put away his sword and punched: "Your opponent is me!"

The huge wave hovered, then exploded and turned into water mist all over the sky.

Xia Chichi walked through the mist and reached the statue.

Xia Longyuan watched silently. Ever since Xia Chichi went to Beijing, he had not seen his daughter smile so relaxed and happy. Even though she was on the battlefield, she seemed to be in harmony with the wind and moon.

"Is this man Zhao Changhe?" Hai Pinglan, who was hiding somewhere, muttered to himself, "How come his understanding of the waves makes him look like a man who has lived on the sea for twenty years... And how come this punch has the shadow of my boxing technique, my Raging Sea Fist? Where did he learn it from?"
