Outside Buyi Town, five powerful men in the fusion stage started fighting, and the battle has lasted for five days.
The four ancient masters in the fusion stage controlled their domains to prevent the aftermath of the battle from leaking out. The silent Taoist opened his domain and attacked fiercely.
"Damn it, how come we encountered the most difficult sword cultivator!" One of the cultivators in the fusion stage frowned. Throughout the ages, sword cultivators have been the most aggressive. The first time they were dealing with a contemporary fusion stage cultivator, they encountered a sword cultivator. Their luck was extremely bad.
The four of them were all in the late stage of fusion, or at the peak of fusion. Their lineup was very powerful, and their cooperation was seamless. They had never encountered an opponent in the fusion period. But when they faced the Taoist Master Bu Yu, they could not gain any advantage. If they were not careful, they would be in danger of falling.
This is certainly because they maintain the rules of Buyi Town and have not yet fully awakened from their long sleep. Even so, it can also explain the horror of the silent Taoist.
"Even in our time, sword cultivators in the fusion stage did not have this level!" Another sword cultivator in the fusion stage spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura fluctuating. He had just been accidentally stabbed by a sword and needed to concentrate on recovering from his injuries.
"Fortunately, there are four of us and only one of him. A long battle is beneficial to us. If we delay it for another ten days, I don't believe he will still be so energetic!"
"Buyi Town is fine, right? If someone takes advantage of the rules and finds a reasonable way to leave Buyi Town, we will be retaliated against."
The use of sword energy by Taoist Buyu to break the rules of Buyi Town is obviously not within the scope of "reasonable".
"What are you afraid of? Lao Wu is the mayor. Even though he has taken over someone else's body, he is still not something that two little guys can handle."
"That's right." Thinking that Lao Wu was in Buyi Town, the four of them felt relieved and slowly fought with Taoist Buyu.
When Taoist Buyu heard this, he became a little worried about Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.
"I asked them to stay in Buyi Town, they should be obedient, right?"
Thinking of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou in Buyi Town, Taoist Buyu felt that the two should be good and obedient children and fight with the four people slowly.
Xiaoyun must be worried about me taking Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou away. After a while, she will come to find me.
"One sword turns into ten thousand swords!" The silent Taoist shouted loudly, as if he was going to burst out with all his strength and end the battle quickly, which scared the four people.
The move of one sword turning into ten thousand swords has been famous since ancient times, so they naturally know this move.
The silent Taoist raised the sword high up, and the golden sword light was as dazzling as the sun. With a flash of the sword, thousands of swords appeared, all of which were real and could not be distinguished from the fake.
Ten thousand swords pressed down like a tsunami; one can imagine how powerful it is.
"Be careful, the other side is going to fight hard!" one of them warned.
The silent Taoist changed his sword moves again: "Man and sword become one!"
His figure completely disappeared and merged with the sword.
There were tens of thousands of swords here, and the four people had no idea that the Taoist Buyu had merged with that sword, so they couldn't find it at all.
The four of them were so depressed that they wanted to vomit blood. They had never heard of this way of delaying time!
"How dare you be a swordsman?"

Article 11: There is a 300-year-old locust tree in the center of the town. From the hour of Hai to the hour of Chen, the locust tree will become an ancestral temple.
"We finally know the location of the ancestral temple." Meng Jingzhou said with a smile. Originally, the two of them had planned to do some more things before they could find out the location of the ancestral temple. Now it is simple. This is a complete pleasant surprise.
Lu Yang was paying attention to another thing. After all, they tried every means to obtain the rules of the Buyi Town yamen runners in order to know the whereabouts of the mayor.
"It's a bit difficult. The rules say that you must stay in the government office from midnight to noon. You won't see the mayor from midnight to noon. If you do, believe it's an illusion, which means the mayor is not in the government office from midnight to noon."
If you don’t know the location of the mayor, you might run into him when you go to the ancestral temple.
"We can't face the mayor easily. The mayor's ability should not be limited to one, and we don't know how much power he has."
"Try to get around him."
Suddenly, Lu Yang seemed to have discovered something: "Did you notice that from midnight to noon, the mayor is not in the government office, and the thatched houses and inns during this period are safe. The only dangerous places are the streets!"
"What are there on the streets? Only monsters! It's very likely that the mayor is a monster!"
Meng Jingzhou frowned: "But you see, the rules also say that the mayor has only one head and two arms. Does the monster look like this?"
Lu Yang nodded: "Do you remember the black shadow outside the window that we encountered on the first night? It was two stories tall and its upper body looked like a human. This does not conflict with the description of the rules."
"The rules don't describe what the lower body looks like!"
Meng Jingzhou made a decision: "We won't go back to the inn at midnight. We will stand next to the big locust tree. Once the big locust tree becomes an ancestral temple, we will rush in, smash the Buddha statue, throw the jade pendant in, and then split into two groups and quickly return to the inn."
Split the troops into two groups. Even if one of them encounters a monster, the other will be safe. This ensures that at least one of the two will be safe.
"The monsters may not dare to eat us. Our lives are connected to the soul lamps. Once we die, the soul lamps will go out. Those who are in the fusion stage are bound to die because they are all from the sect!" Lu Yang seemed to be talking to Meng Jingzhou, but in fact he was talking to the omniscient mayor.
The two came to the big locust tree in the center of the town, and time passed by minute by minute.
"It's the hour of Hai—" Along with the shouts of the night watchmen and the sound of gongs, the space where the big locust tree was located gradually distorted and gradually turned into an old wooden ancestral temple. Outside the ancestral temple, the rules of the ancestral temple of Buyi Town were written.
The two were very nervous and subconsciously touched the jade pendants around their waists, their expressions changing drastically.
"The jade pendant has disappeared!" they both shouted at the same time.
At this time, a dull voice came from the ancestral temple: "Haha, two ignorant children, you can take advantage of the chaos to find the paper with the rules of Buyi Town yamen runners, can't I order the yamen runners to steal your jade pendants?"
Rule 10 of Buyi Town Yamen Rules: You must obey the orders of the mayor without violating the above rules.
