Chapter 880 "Old Friends" (3)

At sunrise on Dongshan Mountain, the fiery red sun slowly rises from the horizon, shining on every glacier and snow peak in Tianshan Mountain.In this season, the ice and snow melt, converging into rivers, gurgling among the mountains, like long snakes.Huge glaciers move slowly, forming a strange landscape.

As early as the early Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin had set up the "Yaochi Protectorate" in Tianshan to manage the Tianshan area.The famous Tang monk Xuanzang also passed here, leaving his footprints. More than 230 years ago, Genghis Khan, the "proud generation of heaven", stayed here on his expedition to the west, and sent his envoy to meet Qiu Chuji, a Quanzhen Taoist priest in Changchun known as the number one master in the north.

Master Changchun was the proud disciple of Quanzhen Patriarch Wang Chongyang, the number one master in the world in the past. After he arrived, he competed with the head of the Tianshan Sword Sect for three days and defeated him.Genghis Khan saw that he was strong in martial arts and extremely proficient in Taoism, so he respectfully called him "immortal", granted him the title of "Master of Protecting the Country", and ordered him to preside over the Yanjing Taiji Palace and lead the world's Taoism.Since then, the Quanzhen sect has grown in momentum, surpassing other sects.

More than 200 years have passed, and the dynasties have changed, and the momentum of the Quanzhen School has sunk.Although the current imperial court once conferred the title of Quanzhen Taoist priest Zhang Sanfeng as the "Guardian Protector", the imperial court values ​​another major sect of Taoism, that is, the Zhengyi sect.The former glory of Quanzhen is gone, but the Tianshan School still exists.

Today's Tianshan School can be said to have reached its heyday.After the Persian Holy Cult came to the Western Regions, they also sent people to make good friends, but no one thought that the Persian Holy Cult moved quickly and intended to annex all the big and small powers in the Western Regions. The king's conference held showed its ambition.

Early in the morning, the Tianshan School was in a state of silence.In order to face the "old friend", Zhong Zidan has ordered that most of the disciples of the Tianshan sect, including the head disciple Zhong Jie, are not allowed to go out without authorization, and there is not even a single person on duty inside or outside the "Xiejian Palace".If an uninformed person came to visit suddenly, he would think that Tianshan sent someone to Loukong.

At noon, a figure rushed from the foot of the mountain.When passing by Jiejian Palace, the visitor let out a slight "huh", and then "hum", and the speed did not decrease, and it went straight to the important town of Tianshan faction.When he arrived in front of the hall, the visitor still didn't see a single person, but he already noticed that there were at least a hundred people in the surrounding houses.He couldn't help letting out a gloomy laugh, mobilized his internal strength, and shouted a word from his dantian: "The old friend is here, where is Brother Zhong?"

Zhong Zidan's voice came from the mountain: "Old friend, Zhong is waiting here with a sword, please come up."

The visitor shook a large cloak behind him, lifted it up into the air, turned over more than 20 feet of ground, and rushed up the mountain.In a blink of an eye, he came to the fork in the mountain road, and without thinking about it, he rushed to the mountain road on the left.In a blink of an eye, he came to the steep mountain road.

Zhong Zidan stood in the middle of the mountain road, the wind blew up and lifted the corner of his robe.He held a wooden sword in his hand, and he really looked like he was holding a sword.

"An old friend came from afar, but Zhong never greeted him far away. Forgive me, forgive me." Zhong Zidan had a smile on his face, as if he was talking to a friend.

The person who came was slender, with a hideous mask on his face and an extremely long cloak.At this moment, under the blowing of the mountain wind, the cloak fluttered with the wind, looking extremely chic.

"Hehehe, the old friend really keeps his promise." The visitor deliberately made his voice dark so that people could not hear his original voice.

Zhong Zidan looked at him, frowned, and said, "What is the purpose of this old friend's attire?"

The visitor let out a strange laugh and said, "Did the old friend look at me?"

Zhong Zidan said: "Of course Zhong has not forgotten that your attire looks like Nie Huangjie, the master of Blood Hand Sect in the past."

The visitor said: "Since I haven't forgotten, who do you say I am?"

Zhong Zidan stared, as if he wanted to see through the mask on the opponent's face, and after a while, he said slowly: "You are naturally not Nie Huangjie."

The visitor "Jie Jie" smiled and said, "Of course I'm not him."

Zhong Zidan frowned deeply, and said: "Since your honor claims to be Zhong's old friend, why don't you take off the mask and have a look?"

The visitor let out a loud laugh, the laughter soared into the sky, and after a pause, he said darkly: "Zhong Zidan, I will give you a chance to see my face."

Zhong Zidan said: "How?"

The visitor said with a sinister smile: "Beat me, and then you can take off the mask on my face."

Zhong Zidan: "It's indeed a good idea. Your honor is only one person?"

The visitor asked, "Aren't you alone?"

Zhong Zidan laughed long and loudly, and in the middle of the laughter, he shot towards the person with a burst of vigor.The distance between the two was no less than ten zhang, but this energy arrived as soon as it was said, and only heard a "bang", a body-protecting true energy gushed out from the person who came, blocking this energy.The visitor didn't retreat, but the cloak flew straighter.

Zhong Zidan was slightly startled, and said to himself: "This person's internal strength is so deep that he doesn't seem to be inferior to me. Who is he? In today's battle, it is extremely difficult to defeat him."

The visitor gave a deep smile, and shouted: "Zhong Zidan, it's impolite to come and not to go, you can try my trick as well." As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step forward, and rushed out like an overwhelming force, rolling towards him. Zhong Zidan.

The two stood in the middle of the mountain road, with a cliff on one side, and if one lost, they were in danger of falling down the mountain.Zhong Zidan took a deep breath of internal air, and let out a long breath, the force coming from the mat stagnated, rolling and surging five feet away in front of him, and it took a while to dissipate.

The visitor let out a strange laugh, and said, "Zhong Zidan, I never expected you to grow stronger as you grow older. Seeing that you can take my trick, I might as well tell you that I am Earth Store Bodhisattva, the Earth Store Bodhisattva who urges lives and souls!"

Zhong Zidan was startled for a moment, then understood immediately, and asked in surprise: "Your Excellency is the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva who has recently become famous all over the world?"

The visitor said with a smile: "This Bodhisattva just used some tricks to play those people around, and I had a lot of fun."

Zhong Zidan frowned and said, "Your Excellency is really that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?"

The visitor sneered and said, "Look at my outfit, how can I not look like Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?"

Zhong Zidan was puzzled, and said: "I heard that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is a chivalrous man with great martial arts skills. He not only saved the Golden Sword and Bodyguard Bureau, but also exposed the conspiracy of people with malicious intentions. How can such a person He will come to find trouble with Zhong. Besides, Zhong has never met him, let alone an old friend."

The visitor said with a strange smile: "I am a hero, but it does not mean that I am not your old friend. There are countless people in the martial arts who seek fame and fame, and there is no shortage of you." These words insulted Zhong Zidan to the extreme, but Zhong Zidan was extremely Calm down, with a faint smile, he said: "Honorable Master's tone is aggressive, and there seems to be such an irreconcilable deep hatred with Zhong. No matter who you are, even the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, you will never let it go today?"

The visitor said coldly: "Of course. This Bodhisattva came to Tianshan today to take your head."

Zhong Zidan laughed, and said: "Zhong's head is here, since you want to take it, why don't you come here yourself."

The visitor snorted coldly and said: "That's exactly what I mean." Stretching out his figure, he moved forward, and a fierce and unparalleled palm was pressed on Zhong Zidan's chest.

Zhong Zidan sank into his dantian, seeing the strength of his palm coming, he suddenly stabbed out with a sword.Although what he held in his hand was just a wooden sword, but under the infusion of internal force, it was no less than a treasured sword that would break hair.One sword turns into nine swords, nine swords turns into eighteen swords, eighteen swords turns into 36 swords, 36 swords turn into 72 swords, 72 swords turn into 140 four swords.With a flick of the fingers, the shadows of the sword are vertical and horizontal, and the sword energy is strong, and all the palm wind forced from the palm of the future will be scattered.The tip of the sword flicked and stabbed at the palm of the person who came.

The visitor snorted coldly, stepped on the middle palace, and pinched his two fingers together.Zhong Zidan was taken aback, he never expected him to be so bold, the place is so small that he couldn't use it, so he wanted to step back, the visitor had already pinched the sword with two fingers, he pushed the side of his head, a gust of sword energy rushed out, It shot three feet from his ear before dissipating.

"Zhong Zidan, you are old, this hand is called 'soldiers are dangerous', at your age, you will never have the courage to use it again." The visitor said sarcastically, at the same time, a force sprang out from the finger, along the Holding the wooden sword, it hit Zhong Zidan's wrist.

Zhong Zidan sighed, let go of the hilt of his sword suddenly, and said with a single palm, "You have the 'soldier's risk', but Zhong has 'abandon everything'."

In an instant, the wooden sword turned into pieces, and Zhong Zidan's palm was about to touch the finger of the visitor.In a critical situation, the visitor spread his other three fingers together, and there was a "bang", finally he saw the opportunity quickly, and received Zhong Zidan's palm with the back of his palm, only to feel that the wrist bone was about to be shattered, and the person was also pushed back ten feet away. .

In Zhong Zidan's capacity, being forced to abandon his sword was considered to be a loss to the opponent, but he then slapped the opponent back, which was regarded as saving face, and also hurt the opponent, so he had the upper hand.

The visitor turned his wrist and made a rattling sound, and in a blink of an eye, the pain disappeared.Lifting his palms, he met Zhong Zidan's palms.

With a sound of "boom", amidst the splashing of rocks, the two jumped up, each attacking a dozen moves in mid-air.The two of them had profound inner strength, and this battle in the air was all based on a breath of true energy. When they fell, they had already fallen from the edge of the cliff.But how skillful are the two of them, they just lightly touched the ground by the cliff with their hands, and they bounced up quickly, and then handed over in mid-air.After doing this several times, the mountain road was dilapidated and even more steep.

The two fought from the middle of the mountain road to the end of the mountain road, and then from the end of the mountain road to the top of the mountain road, the rumbling sound never stopped.The two of them exerted terrifying power, those rocks couldn't hit them no matter what, as soon as they flew close, they were either shattered or bounced away.

The figures of the two rose and fell from time to time, like birds. When the fight was fierce, the two of them clapped their palms, and the powerful qi collided with each other. go.The two of them writhed and rushed straight into the air.

"Papapapapapapapa", the two slapped each other eight palms, the situation changed, a small snow peak suddenly collapsed, shaking the mountain, rolling tens of feet, squeezing into a depression, filling it up.

At this time, the two fell to the ground and stood on a snow field more than 20 feet away from the right side of the wooden house, with their hands lowered to each other, trying to compete for internal strength.
