Chapter 104: Gathering from All Directions
clues to those who find Diannan Abyss about Jiufeng Chapter should also be one of its responsibilities. Otherwise, there's no need for it to explain Jiufeng to us in such detail.Of course, these are...The sky over Starmoon Plains was clear, and the Baiyijing Wine House remained bustling. 。Those who wander the Astral Plains are mostly those without a name, but they each have their own way of life. 。In this lawless region, might makes right, but it is not the only factor. 。In the quiet chamber of Baiyu Palace's eleventh floor, a large hanging scroll adorned the walls, with beast mouths devouring incense. 。The young master of the Bai family in Langya, whenever circumstances permit, always strives to live a more refined life. 。At this time, he sat cross-legged, his left hand holding a long sword reversed and across his chest. He wore his clothes properly and his posture was very dignified. 。About Baiyujing Restaurant's daily earnings being as plentiful as gold, while the restaurant's wealth accumulation is not as exaggerated as it seems. 。The "Clothing Purchase Expenses" item in the expense list could possibly bear a great deal of responsibility. 。Waiter's Own Clothing 。Those who chop wood and those responsible for lighting the ceremonial fire don't need to dress too well. 。The master of the house often wore a piece of auspicious fairy clothing. 。The clothing was purchased for whom is obvious. 。The sharp blade reflected on his jade-like handsome face. He picked up a wine jug beside him, gulped down the most expensive wine in the shop, and poured it all over the cold blade. 。The beads are tiny and evenly spaced across every inch of the blade. 。He took a square, white cloth and slowly wiped his long sword. 。This process is very slow. 。He didn't miss any fine detail, being more meticulous than a cashier counting money. 。A swordsman, first and foremost, must know his own sword. 。Next is knowing yourself. 。Last but not least, know your enemy. 。He used this process, and his own sword, to have a final conversation with it. 。A simply dressed man, with an axe hanging from his waist, stood at the door at some point in time. 。He didn't turn around. 。Since this person is unstoppable, heaven and earth cannot contain them. 。He just smiled and said, "It's gotta be this watered-down liquor. It cleans the sword so well." 。Lin Xian asked, "Then why don't you just wash it with water" Bai YuXia said in a deep voice, "Why do people drink They drink for the feeling." 。My sword is the same way. 。Lin Xian leaned against the door frame, with his arms by his side, silent. 。Then Bai Yu Xia will not say much. 。This is not an interesting person at all. 。People who carry too much are always hard to be fun with. 。He polished his longsword and sheathed it. 。He smoothed his clothes meticulously, then stood up. 。He got up and walked out. As he brushed past Lin Xian, he said, "Keep an eye on our tavern, I'll be right back." 。"Not until this moment did Lin Xian speak again: "I will go with you." 。"Bai Yu Xie stopped her steps: "Do you know what I'm going to do" Lin Xian shook her head: "I don't know" 。But I know you're going to find a new home. 。That you would be so serious about polishing your sword... I should be impressed. 。"The jadeite is flawed, said Bai Yu with the tone of a shopkeeper. 'Master didn't tell you because he didn't want to implicate you' 。You bear the hopes of your nation, do not recklessly endanger yourself. 。"What did the host say to you" Lin Xian's job was just chopping wood, but he wasn't so willing to accept it. 。At first, he didn't want to tell me 。He doesn't want to drag me down, or…" Bai YuXia smiled: "He thinks I'm too weak and can't help." 。He shook his head nonchalantly: "It's just that I followed him from the Qi Kingdom to the Demon Realm, from the Demon Realm to the Maze Realm, and from the Maze Realm to the Starmoon Plain. We were together day and night." 。I can't imagine he has any way to hide it from me. 。"Aren't you afraid of being implicated" Lin Xian asked again. 。Bai Yu Xia said: “I have long since left the Bai family of Langya and severed ties with Yue Guo.” 。I am a solitary ghost. Besides the homeowner, I can't harm anyone else. 。“I'm not afraid” 。Lin Xian said 。Since the host didn't call you, there must be a reason. 。"Bai Yu Xia was very serious: 'This matter is of great importance'" 。Even Jingli Xiao Shengsong, he was hiding it too. 。What others do is none of my business. 。Lin Xian said, "I became his disciple and received his protection and guidance under his roof." 。Now that he's in trouble, I just stand by and do nothing. There's no justice in the world like this. 。"Bai Yu Xu turned back, looking at him seriously: 'I believe you, Lin Xian, are a valiant man who values loyalty and righteousness above all else.'" 。But this matter is not as simple as you think, and if it goes wrong, it could even implicate your country. 。We all know your feelings for Rong Guo. 。The host doesn't want you to go, nor do I. 。You said you were a lonely spirit, just dwelling in this Baiyu City. In fact, I am also... 。The person who raised and taught me is dead, and I have no parents or family. 。I have renounced all worldly ties to follow my master on the path of cultivation. 。So there's no one to blame, at most it would be the White Jade Palace. 。Lin Xian's voice, like his blade, was persistent and powerful: “If I am fortunate enough to grow in strength, of course I will return to serve my country.” 。But now, I have to do what I should do. 。Today is the Lin Xian of Baiyu Jing, and the Lin Xian of Rong Guo is still to come. 。Bai Yu's eyes stared into his, seeing no sign of wavering. 。Then only one thing remains. 。"Bai Yu Xias said" 。"What's wrong" Lin Xian asked. 。Bai Yu Xi walked a few steps and pushed open the window on the eleventh floor. 。Sunlight flooded the room, and the wind from the canyon swept across his forehead. 。He said, "The master said that if I cannot appear before today, then I should not go to meet my death." 。As soon as he finished speaking, he strode out the window with a graceful air. 。A man of beauty, his skin as white as jade, walked into the heavens. In an instant, he stirred the wind and clouds, causing heaven and earth to resonate together. 。People eagerly watched, awed by his presence, almost divine in power. In an instant, a heavenly wind descended upon the valley! Bai Yu Xia stood at the heart of the swirling storm clouds, feeling the power surging through every inch of her body. She smoothed the turbulent flow of her vital energy, grasping the violent yet orderly sword qi, expanding her senses to near infinity. 。Before Lin Xian, with eyes shining with divine light, could even blink, he had already passed through the sword qi waterfall and silently approached him. 。A powerful aura surged forth, responding to him and filling the heavens and earth. 。Today is a good day. 。Now is truly a good time. 。The two divine beings, Bai Yu Jing and Lian Yue, leap together. They are both celestial prodigies from the Yellow River! The entire Starmoon Origin trembles in fear. 。Let's go. 。There is no need to say more about the imperfections of jade. 。At this moment, even Yuchan’s voice burst from the wine shop: “Where are you going Don’t take me with you!” It was she who sensed the change in heaven and earth, yet she didn't know what had happened. She drew her sword and rushed out of the building——even such a delicate and refined young lady became so reckless. 。All of this, who did you learn it from! Master Dong, this prosperous world is as you wished! Bai Yu Xia reversed her hand and pointed, a jade-colored sword qi sealed the window, trapping Lian Yu Chan in the tavern: "Take good care of the house, we're going to visit the brothel, no women allowed!" Lian Yu Chan drew her sword and slashed at the sealing sword qi several times, feeling stifled and deeply unhappy. 。"The host clearly said I would arrive first..." "Are you not giving her a chance to choose" Amidst the fierce wind, Lin Xian spoke out. 。 。"Bai Yu's jade flaws said: 'Her father is Lian Jingzhi, this is a connection that can never be severed.'" 。Besides, someone has to stay at the tavern, right What if we're all gone At least someone will remember us. 。"Tsk tsk tsk!" Lin Xian remembered the warning from her master and hurriedly said, "Spit three times quickly!" … Zhuang Gaoxian laughed and flew away from Han Xu and the others. In the blink of an eye, the smile on his face vanished as he turned, and then his laughter fell silent. 。He flew clearly out of the sight of the people from Yongguo, then held his breath and hid, before returning. 。like a wisp of air, a silhouette of a tree, an existence without trace in the world. 。Observing Han Xu and his group's aura from afar. 。These people from Yongguo were extremely cautious. They stuck together the whole time, and you never saw an opportunity. 。But Zhuang Gao Xian still waited until these people stepped onto the territory of Yongguo before he chose to give up and went to Taixu Mountain Gate. 。Killing Han Xu would certainly be the best option, but it's no longer possible. 。This way, it's considered a grasp of the second-best outcome. 。No matter how you put it, crippling Han Xu and stripping Yongguo of its qualification to join the alliance means that Zhuang Guo has won the next ten years of the struggle between Zhuang and Yong. 。Even if representatives of the Mohist school speak up for the state of Yong, their power will inevitably be greatly reduced. 。From ancient times, there's never been a reason why someone not present should get a share of the spoils! Since we've won such an advantage here... 。Then next time in the national war, what he'll be fighting for isn't just land resources, but also to use national power to support Du Ruhui's claim that his hole might really... 。Once Du Ruhui recorded the "Yuanshi Jade Scroll," Zhuang Ting could gain more support from Yu Jingshan. 。Thus, the virtuous cycle continues, with national strength growing exponentially. Even if Jiang Wang were a genius ten times over, it would be difficult to catch up! Of course, he has no intention of giving Jiang Wang a chance to catch up... No, that's not right. 。Suddenly, Zhuang Gaoxian, immersed in beautiful prospects, frowned. 。At this moment, he suddenly understood. He had always felt something was off, but couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was - even if Han Xu did manage to transmit the message in some way he didn't understand during the battle. 。But those from Yong Guo arrived too late! If there were just a few less people, they wouldn't have been able to stop me from killing. 。...And it was precisely these many people, a group of high-ranking officials like the Earl of Britain and the Prime Minister of Yongguo… These were individuals who held important positions in Yongguo, capable of leaving at any moment. Could they have arrived so promptly It's more likely that they were prepared to receive us beforehand! Among that group of noblemen from Yongguo just now, Marquis Huai Xiang Yao Qi was someone I had met long ago and we had been exchanging subtle signals… 。But both he and Du Ruhui believed this man was untrustworthy and highly suspected of being a double agent. On the principle that one should make use of every bit, they always appeased him. 。Today, in this sudden clash, Yao Qi did not give any hints. 。Or maybe if Yao Qi gave a hint, he would be even more alert earlier. 。At this moment, the first thought that crossed Zhuang Gaoxian's mind was — this is Han Xu's scheme! Han Xu launched the challenge, not out of arrogance after winning against Dong Zhen, but to consume him! The second thought followed immediately — The Mohist school wants to go against heaven and earth, taking action against him! Of course, there are many who want to kill him. 。But he couldn't have imagined that in this day and age, besides the Mohists, who else would have such execution ability, such strength, and such motivation! Take someone like Jiang Wang, who hates him to his core, poses a real threat, and whose future is destined to be a life-or-death struggle. Shouldn't he have to wait until Dong Zhen to have an opportunity No wonder there wasn't a single Mohist expert among those who greeted Han Xu just now! Isn't this exactly what they did to clear their suspicions Let alone how the Mohists planned to avoid the risks of the aftermath and clear their names—admittedly, framing others and covering up evidence was his specialty, but now those were things the Mohists needed to consider. 。Right now, he needs to consider how Zhuang GaoXian can escape this predicament. 。The danger hadn't happened yet, but the moment suspicion arose, he treated it as if the danger already existed. 。Eliminate the possibility of danger before verifying if it exists. 。This is his style of doing things. 。It is also the fundamental reason why he has stood firm for so many years. 。Thoughts flashed through his mind, he strode forward with long steps, leaping thousands of feet into the air, accelerating towards the endless quicksand. 。As clever as he was, knowing his urgent desire to return to the Duke's state, would only make him fall into a trap. 。Conversely, the Taixu Mountain Gate where all the world's strongest gather at this moment is the only truly safe place! ... Lurking within the predefined battlefield, observing King Chujiang who has already outlined a ruthless battle formation, Wang Wugan felt no sense of security at all. 。He felt a little cold, perhaps because of this formation, or perhaps it was more than just the formation. 。The barely-formed corpse twitched its eyelids nervously. 。He swallowed nervously, through the face of his King Yama mask, opening the internal communication channel to the Netherworld's Gate. He stammered, "Boss... you didn't say our target was a living person from this world, did you" 。"Didn't I just say that" The big boss's voice was very matter-of-fact. 。But now, you don't allow me to leave, 。After all, I carefully considered my words and cautiously probed, "This person is a real being..." Yin Guan was unknown as to his whereabouts, but his voice came clearly, "To be precise, he is a real being who has already fought to the death with another living person in this world, suffering immense exhaustion." 。"Even the Song emperor joined the pre-war discussion. His voice was low and subdued, no longer as arrogant as before: 'This is still a sovereign nation. We will be wanted criminals afterward.'" 。"Yin Guan asked in turn, 'Aren't we wanted now' The Song Emperor immediately caved: 'Then it's alright.'" 。Among the several Yama Kings, King Ping-Liang was the most tranquil. 。He joined Hell's Gate in order to constantly push himself and accelerate his power growth. 。Without facing formidable opponents and dangers head-on, how can we possibly break through Though this time's danger is indeed a bit... "We all volunteered for this mission, willingly came here>>> 。There's no turning back. 。< Either break away from the organization now and wait to be hunted down, > 。“Either... try to kill another king!” His voice even sounded excited at the end. 。Last time, when he killed that useless king of Youguo and plundered the country's dragon qi, it is said that his bloodline from the Yang clan through the female ancestor Ji, was awakened. The Great Sun Golden Flame Decision also completed a key step, achieving perfection. He also swallowed the dragon and became a god. 。This time, if he could successfully kill Zhuang Gaoxian and plunder the dragon's energy of the State of Zhuang, his cultivation would soar to what heights I hope that bastard is crippled, better yet, barely clinging to life! King Chu Jiang's voice rang out coldly in the letter: “He's coming>>>” 。This sound possesses a cold and clear power, dissipating silently and causing the listener's emotions to become more stable and their perception sharper. It is a rare and wonderful method of sonic cultivation. 。Of course, there aren't many normal people in Hell Without a Door, so it's hard to say how emotions can be stabilized. 。How do the Divine Conquerors capture the traces of True Insight Masters They don't capture them; they simply lie in wait along the path that those seeking the Endless Quicksand must travel. 。They were targeting this space, not any specific individual. 。Hell's Gate is a professional assassin organization with extensive experience in challenging powerful adversaries. 。The deaths of countless Yama kings in battle, make this experience profound and weighty. 。Just like a giant enters the water, naturally producing ripples. 。King Chujiang set his formation in advance, calculating with intention while appearing without. He aimed to capture the ripples of energy within a whole expanse of void. 。But Zhuang Gao's arrival was too sudden. 。Almost as soon as the King of Chu spoke, a majestic and imposing figure in ceremonial robes appeared out of thin air. 。The trap barely had time to take effect! Boom! A man with flowing hair and glowing green eyes appeared out of thin air! His appearance was both strange and frenzied, causing anyone who looked upon him to want to abandon themselves. 。In a moment that defied divine perception, he collided with the figure clad in white robes adorned with yellow sashes and a flat crown! That was Yin Guan always! Among all the Yama Kings, he was the only one who never wore a mask, allowing himself to be pursued by the world. 。He never cared about other people's lives, and didn't seem to care much about his own either. 。Under his leadership, Hell's Gate always dared to take on the most dangerous missions, and he was always at the heart of danger! Perhaps this is the fundamental reason why, despite the rapid turnover of members in Hell's Gate, everyone respects him. 。Two figures in the sky came together and then separated. 。Yin Guan had been preparing for a long time, waiting patiently for the opportune moment. 。Zhuāng Gāoxian was eager to get on the road and responded casually. 。Blood splattered the sky! Yin Guan instantly plummeted! But at the same time, a cold wind howled, and goose feather snow fell from the heavens. 。Hailstorms, like stones, roared as they crashed through the sky. 。The temperature dropped sharply, a bone-chilling cold penetrating the very soul. 。On Zhuang Gaoxian's ceremonial robe, visible to the naked eye, appeared some ice crystals. 。The void he stepped into seemed to transform into a snowy plain. 。Endless desolation, ten thousand miles of icebound. 。This is—“The Ice Hell!” Chu Jiang Wang’s grand formation has been activated, trapping Zhuang Gao Xian within its grasp. 。Throughout history, the only formations that have truly been able to face a divine army in battle are those of 。It takes strong soldiers, capable generals, and formidable battle formations - all are indispensable. 。No matter what formations, banners, or schools of array formation are used, they are all limited by the capabilities of the one who sets them up and cannot bridge the gap between cultivators of different ranks. 。Just like King Chu Jiang was also a master of the array path, he took out his strongest ice hell and prepared it for a long time, but he almost couldn't even trap people. 。Qin Guang Wang risked his own life to block the attack, barely allowing this formation to take effect. 。What else can it do The true person of the present world, insightful into this world. 。Zhuang Gao's elegant robe swished as he brushed past, the ice frost on its exterior vanishing instantly. 。Five fingers spread open to the sky, a flurry of snow fills the air! This is "the Qi of the Highest Jade Void, Returning to the Primal Void through Mixing Tunnels," a Taoist technique derived from it. It's part of the core Taoist system of Yujing Mountain and his most skilled technique. 。As everyone knows, the core Taoist practices of Yujing Mountain are unparalleled in the world, wielding the Qi of Jade Void with mastery. 。Especially this technique of "Mixed Cave Returning to Yuan," after years of refinement, in his hands, its power approached that of Heavenly Rank Dao Arts. And its consumption was less, its speed faster, and its range of applications wider. 。"Interesting!" Zhuang Gaoxian discovered he had guessed wrong. 。Or perhaps only guessed half of it. 。Indeed, some people had designs on him, and it was key that he participated in the Tai Xu Alliance. 。but it will not be the Mohist school 。Since the Mohism wanted to kill him, there was no need to hire a killer. 。And to have such a weak assassin! For the Mo family, to deploy these riffraff is pointless except to complicate matters after the fact. 。Then who could it be The other party had such a clear grasp of the overall situation, able to seize this crucial moment, yet their own strength was insufficient, needing so many fancy tricks... His heart grew colder, but his face became agitated. His sleeves billowed: "Cowardly bandits! Does Han Xu want you to kill me! A ruler of a country, neglecting state affairs and failing to fulfill his duties, entrusting the fate of the nation to assassins! Such despicable actions truly disgrace the title of emperor!" Zhuang Gao Xian spread his hands wide, Jade Void Qi dispersed rapidly, the entire Ice Hell crumbled, all converging in his palm, "Mixing holes," everything returned to its "origin." 。But after the flying snow disappeared, large clumps of dark clouds descended from the sky. 。The darkness
enveloped the light. 。"Swallows! Swallows! Swallows!" Such a monstrous, evil, and mad shriek echoed through the heavens and earth. On closer inspection, where were the dark clouds It was clearly an unleashed evil bird! It was a tailless swallow, yet it was far from small... 。Its wings spread wide, blotting out the sun and moon. 。Black feathers flew out like arrows, covering the sky and raining down on the mortals. 。Those venomous phoenix eyes glared fixedly at Zhuang Gaoxian, with a clear thirst for his skull! Yan Xiao, who had been usurped by Ao Kui and reborn after Ao Kui's "death", inheriting most of Ao Kui's physical strength, was now in her complete form. She possessed the combat power of the divine realm - Ao Kui's true dragon body left in the Star Tower prison was almost at the level of a celestial sovereign, but Yan Xiao's realm couldn't keep up, otherwise, her performance would have surpassed the divine realm. 。When Jiang Wang first entered the Sen Hai Yuan Realm to challenge Yan Xiao for the first time, the latter, with its left wing injured, had already demonstrated three abilities: Swallow Peck, Displacement, and Turbulence. 。These three abilities are related to its beak, right wing, and talons respectively. 。At that time, Jiang Wang guessed that when it grew stronger, it might possess five abilities. 。This is indeed the case. 。The falcon, descended from the heavens, possesses more than just the techniques of swallow peck, void shift, and turbulent flow. It also commands the prowess of feathered flight and the piercing cry of the falcon. 。One is a large-scale attack, the other is a terrifying killing technique that combines sound and soul. 。This was Jiang Wang's first time unleashing it, and also its first battle outside the confines of their training. How could it not give it its all Feathered wings beat swiftly, a screech pierced the air, with a single flap of its right wing, it pounced before Zhuang Gao Xian, delivering a strike like a swallow diving for prey! The series of movements flowed seamlessly, showcasing the killing prowess honed by Jiang Wang's rigorous training. 。CLANG! With its hard, near-lethal beak, it pecked a world-renowned expert's fist, producing a ringing clang like metal striking metal. 。The Qi of Jade Void swirls around the fist, still returning to its primordial state. 。True masters of seeing the world for what it truly is, they need no elaborate options. Suitable is enough. 。 。Since the opponent chose to make a move at this juncture, it's inconceivable that they only possess such limited abilities! All of the power emanating from Yan Xiao has been gathered together by terrifying Daoist techniques. 。Zhuango Xian's fist continued forward, unmoving as it shattered these attacks and blasted Yan Xiao! Hmm Just as Zhuango Xian confidently turned back, a dark power surged, within that evil substance, the sinister roars rang out again — Yan! Yan! Yan! Yan Xiao was resurrected!f his master having such a brother before. Connecting this to his recent experiences, a sense of pride welled up in him. Who doesn't know you!But he also had a bit of worry, and couldn't help but ask...
