Chapter 801 Four Elephants Formation, Second Level of Imperial Realm

Zhao Changhe thought that his performance was acceptable. Whether with Jiuyou or Ying Wu, he could ramble a few words and his tone was calm.

But Ying Wu still exposed his anxiety mercilessly.

This feeling that my wife's life is hanging in the hands of others, but I can't even find the place for a while, is as awkward as it can be.

Ying Wu is right. Being too anxious will be counterproductive to your own breakthrough, and it is easy to fall into the trap of others. You must calm down and then calm down. But how can we say that calming down can lead to calmness?

He withdrew his soul, took several deep breaths, and then said: "There is an important Kunlun secret realm on Ying Wu's side. As long as it is found, it will be a big clue. I made an appointment with him to set off in three days."

Tang Wanzhuang said: "You can go and meet Cui Wenjing first."

The Cui family has a house in Beijing, and Cui Wenjing lives here temporarily. He still watches the flowing water in the clear stream behind the house. He has always liked watching the flowing water.

Cui Wenjing was a little surprised to see Zhao Changhe's sudden visit.

Zaochao just told Xia Chichi and the others that Zhao Changhe would be arriving from Mobei to the capital this afternoon? Even if he could fly, Zhao Changhe had already set off in the morning.

This couldn't be the result of a temporary transmission, it could only be that he came back before anyone called him.

"You just won a great victory, why don't you spend a few more days in the conquered land?"

"Previously, Piaomiao's name and the ancient white tiger appeared on the troubled times list, which made me feel uneasy. I came back as soon as I recovered from the injury, and there was nothing to stay."

"If you didn't say that there is an ancient white tiger, I might be more moved."

"Why should I lie to you?" Zhao Changhe sighed: "Yangyang scolded me before, saying that I seemed to be in a relationship with you."

Cui Wenjing's face was amused, and he immediately said: "Yangyang has not practiced enough. It is difficult for people like Zhuque, Yue Hongling and others to accompany you in battles. Naturally, they will rarely get along with you. In addition, because of their young age and lack of experience, The important thing is of course that I talk to you more. Rather than being jealous of her father, she is more resentful that you don’t spend enough time with her... How many times have we met after we got married? "

When Zhao Changhe was about to say something, Cui Wenjing waved his hand: "Of course it's not your fault, you really don't have time. It doesn't matter at first. There are endless wars in the world. When everything settles down, you can naturally spend more time with your wife at home. . Yangyang has always felt that she should be able to help you. She can be your right-hand man like Suzaku and the others. I don’t think it is really necessary. Even if she has no practice at all, it will not affect anything. You are still a very affectionate person. .”

What Zhao Changhe wanted to say was finished by his father-in-law, and he scratched his head in embarrassment: "I think so too. Yangyang has been putting pressure on herself and wants to chase, but it is actually unnecessary. In my opinion, the meaning of her practice is not as good as saying It can beautify your face.”

Cui Wenjing said: "For the relationship between the two of you, practice doesn't matter. But for your own safety and the tide of the times, practice must keep up after all. Yangyang has worked very hard. In order to catch up with you, she worked hard to break through the secret Zang, at this age, is already far from the past. Unfortunately, when I look back, I see that the demons everywhere don’t even have the power to protect themselves."

Cui Wenjing's words were actually a bit sighing for himself.

Not to mention that Yangyang can't keep up now, even he can hardly keep up.

Yuxu's injury has not healed yet, and Li Shentong has returned from serious injuries. After the death of Bo'e, Timur, Haiping, Wang Daoning and others, the old Tianbang has become a thing of the past and has become a mark of the old era.

Just like their family.

It’s also like the running water in front of you.

Zhao Changhe said: "Don't worry, father-in-law, I will rescue Yangyang soon."

Cui Wenjing smiled slightly: "What I want to say is, if something cannot be done, your own safety should be the most important thing."

"Huh?" Zhao Changhe was stunned.

Cui Wenjing finally withdrew his eyes from the flowing water and glanced at Zhao Changhe: "Your safety is of great importance. You must not go out and fight at all costs like you did when you were reckless."

Zhao Changhe was silent for a moment and whispered: "Then it's not me."

Cui Wenjing said: "What you think is your business. I'm just telling you my attitude. If you can do something, do it. If you can't, I won't blame you. Just try your best."

Zhao Changhe didn't know what to say for a moment.

He knew that Lao Cui said this intentionally to reduce some pressure on himself, but there was no need to respond to this, and he couldn't do it anyway.

After thinking about it, I actually responded with this sentence: "Don't you want to participate?"

Cui Wenjing was stunned for a moment when asked: "I have never broken the imperial guard, and it may still have some meaning in the battle of the first level of the imperial realm. For demon gods like Jiuyou and Piaomiao who are obviously top-notch demon gods, the unbroken emperor is no different from an ant, and there is no need to participate. use."

Zhao Changhe looked at Cui Wenjing's white hair on the temples and considered: "Actually, my father-in-law is not old, he is less than fifty this year. This age is old for the entrance, but he is still in his prime for the Yujing level. As long as the heart is still there, In today's world, it's really not difficult to break through the barrier. I just don't know why, since the last injury, it feels like my father-in-law has lost the energy to continue to break through. Is it because being in bed for two months makes you feel old? "

Cui Wenjing continued to look at Liu Shui and whispered: "Let's count some of the reasons. The more important thing is actually your new policy."

"..."

"People are different. It's hard for you and His Majesty to understand that Lao Yang and I are confused by the collapse of their ideals throughout their lives." Cui Wenjing sighed: "For example...in the past, I only worked hard for my family. Whether it’s cultivation or something else…but since the family no longer meets the needs, I really don’t know why I’m practicing.”

Zhao Changhe wondered: "Isn't practicing for yourself?"

"For my own sake, why would I like to practice?"

Zhao Changhe was stunned.

Cui Wenjing smiled: "Actually, I don't like martial arts at all. What I really like has always been the study of economics and economics. It's just that if you don't have the strength to gain a foothold in this world, it's useless to be a talkative scholar, so you have to practice martial arts."

Zhao Changhe also smiled: "Practice and practice until you reach the top of the list."

Cui Wenjing said curiously: "You accept my statement quickly. In the past, when I told others about it, they could hardly understand it."

"Your son-in-law accepts everything very quickly."

"..." Cui Wenjing rolled his eyes speechlessly: "Of course it's useless to say this now, not for the sake of the family, but also just for the children and grandchildren not to be bullied. But Jiuyou and Piaomiao should at least be able to outperform other imperial realms?"

"good."

Cui Wenjing stretched out his hand as a matter of course: "Then bring it."

Zhao Changhe honestly took out a few pills of medicine found in the secret realm of Changshengtian: "This will be useful for your condition."

"I know, Luo Liba is not as smooth as before." Cui Wenjing put the medicine into her sleeve: "Go. I'm not sure whether I can participate. Anyway, I will try my best."

"Old fox." Zhao Changhe muttered, turned around and left. His previously depressed mood became much lighter.

When they returned to the palace, Xia Chichi and Yue Hongling, who had been absent before, both arrived at the same time. Seeing that Zhao Changhe's expression had become much calmer after he came back, everyone heaved a sigh of relief - there were some things that they couldn't say as "love rivals", only Cui Wenjing could say them, and indeed Cui Wenjing was always so reliable.

Zhao Changhe still had time to ask Yue Hongling: "How do you like the White Tiger Classics?"

Yue Hongling glanced at Xia Chichi, who kept a straight face and said nothing. Both of them found that every time they appeared together, there was no quarrel atmosphere, so they didn't quarrel every time, which was also a strange fate.

Yue Hongling turned away and said directly: "It is indeed suitable for me to practice, and it is a very useful supplement for me. Hmm... The practice of the gold system is also suitable for me. After all, I will practice swordsmanship all my life..."

Xia Chichi muttered something, but no one could hear clearly. In fact, Xia Chichi himself knew that he was so busy with national affairs that he could no longer take on the second line as he did in the early years. It would be good if he could sort out the Qinglong line. Sooner or later, the White Tiger line would have to be transferred to someone else... It was a pity that he had done so before. When walking around the world, he still wears the white tiger mask.

But I never thought that the person being transferred was Yue Hongling.

This local woman really dares to accept...

Forget it, let her eat what I have left.

Xia Chichi complained that Sanniang and Huangfu Qing didn't have as many thoughts as she did. Sanniang said, "In that case, can we rehearse the Four Elephants Formation?"

Huangfuqing hesitated: "Which one?"

Everyone knew what she meant. There are two types of Four-Elephant Formation. One is the Four-Elephant Formation alone, and the other is the ancient ultimate formation, which is the true Four-Elephant Formation with the Night Emperor in the center. In theory, of course, the latter is much stronger and more suitable for their current training, but the key is that one of their enemies now seems to be the Night Emperor.

Not to mention the question of whether the believers will be dumbfounded if word spreads, but if we use the formation of the Emperor of the Night to defeat the Emperor of the Night, will it produce the phenomenon of Yuxu attacking the Taoist Lord, but it will be useless?

Zhao Changhe was very calm: "Practice both formations, the main one is the True Four Symbols Formation, and the other one is used as a secondary formation. Sometimes I can use it when I'm not around. In fact, there is no point worrying about this. Even if the Ye Emperor in the center is removed, she should break it." Just as broken."

Everyone looked at each other and said, "How familiar are you... with Ye Di?"

Zhao Changhe was silent for a moment and sighed: "As long as I am her successor, the problem is not that big. In other words, my succession to Emperor Ye is the result she wants to see. At first, Qing'er was entangled with Ye Emperor after my changes. In fact, there is no need to worry about whether the Emperor’s will is considered the Emperor of the Night, because the Emperor of the Night recognizes it himself.”

Huangfu Qing: "..."

"If there is any deviation that was beyond her expectation, it is that all four elephants have become my pillow..."

Except for Yue Hongling, who had not yet thought of herself as a white tiger, the other three all turned their heads, their expressions were not embarrassed, but actually wanted to laugh.

Because it's really funny... If Ye Di had any thoughts about Zhao Changhe's succession, then she definitely didn't plan to become Zhao Changhe's wife. The difference between his subordinate and his wife is too big. I don’t know how Ye Di felt after learning about it. This deviation may even lead to fatal mistakes in Ye Di’s plan.

For example, if there is a real fight and only the subordinates form an formation, once the True Night Emperor comes, the Four Elephants Formation will be broken without fighting, and some may defect. What now? Who cares now that Yuan Ye Emperor is a hammer...

"What I didn't understand was why she led me to follow the path of the Night Emperor... Is it just to make it easier to control me?" Zhao Changhe whispered to himself: "Or... she wanted to observe the different intentions of the Night Emperor. difference?"

Tang Wanzhuang, an outsider from Sixiang, watched the show for a long time with her arms folded, and said: "No matter what Ye Di thinks, at least the opponent in this battle is not her. It can still be used to deal with Jiuyou and Piaomiao. Let's practice first. I'll give it to you." You protect the law."

"Yes." Zhao Changhe cheered up and said enthusiastically: "No matter what happens to Ye Di, we will do what we should do. Sooner or later, we will spank her."

The Four Elephant Formation is one of the simplest formations in the world in terms of its orientation. Everyone forms four elephants according to their attributes and positions, with Zhao Changhe in the middle as the hub. No matter how he moves during the battle, as long as the orientation is If it doesn't change, the formation cannot be broken. But the skill is not in the formation itself, but mainly in the method of energy flow and combination. In particular, the coordination and guidance that the person in the middle needs to do is extremely difficult, and it cannot be done by anyone who has a sufficient understanding of the four images.

Therefore, the requirement of the "leader" of the Four Symbols Sect in the early years was to possess both the Four Symbols... This requirement was obviously a dream. Where can I find someone who can master all four elements? Xia Chichi is a genius. She can only master two elements. Her "master" is Suzaku, but she has not learned any fire element.

And now there is Zhao Changhe. He doesn't have all four elements, and he can't play with fire and water. However, he has cultivated all four elements. He doesn't have all four elements, but he is compatible... This must be Zhao Changhe who is extremely talented in martial arts. Even if ordinary people can forcibly cultivate the four images simultaneously, they may not be able to achieve compatibility with them all.

But at this moment, Tang Wanzhuang, who was watching the Dharma Protector, could clearly see the Four Elephants Star Chart emerging in the sky. The four colors representing the Four Elephants were scattered in one direction and going back and forth with each other. They were in conflict but also vaguely related, opposite and unified. The late Tang Dynasty makeup is thoughtful.

It would definitely not be possible to rely on their active unification, so the four colors of power flowed to the center of the sky simultaneously.

"Choke!" The dragon bird suddenly unsheathed, and the setting sun was limited to the west.

Then the stars and rivers unsheathed, and in the far east, the moon shone brightly.

There is no sun or moon in the sky, so I do it myself.

The sun and the moon are opposite each other, forming a perfect balance between them.

Tang Wanzhuang felt a little throbbing in her heart. She had never thought beforehand that Zhao Changhe's sword intention could be manifested in this way... This should also incorporate the meaning of the Sun, Moon and Star Three Talents Formation they had built before, which is equivalent to giving the current Bottom line - the more this feeling of destiny is, the more heart palpitating it is in today's context. Did Ye Di foresee this?

The sun and the moon gather together the four images, but they seem to be stuck and unable to flow.

Zhao Changhe pondered for a moment and suddenly threw something out.

Yuxu's Tai Chi diagram... Li Shentong kept it before leaving, but took it back.

The shadow of Tai Chi hovered in the sky, and soon the power of the four images was pulled by it and converged on the two instruments. The two instruments became one and merged into Zhao Changhe. And through his distribution and circulation, the four conflicting elements pass through each person's body, and the opposition gradually disappears, leaving only unity.

Zhao Changhe raised his head and glanced at the sky outside.

Everyone started working together in the evening, and before we knew it, it was already late at night...

The initial meaning is from the setting sun, but what will it end with now?

Zhao Changhe's heart moved slightly and he whispered: "Evening makeup."

After hearing the song in the late Tang Dynasty, Zhuang knew the elegant meaning, and with a "choking" sound, the Spring Water Sword came out.

A ray of skylight rose up from the sparkling water waves and gradually appeared in the sky. No four colors were highlighted anymore, only the purest light spread all over the earth.

Its daybreak.

Zhao Changhe finished his work and looked inside silently.

A group of women looked directly at him with wide eyes.

The surging practice is like the Yangtze River, running endlessly. There is a kind of clarity that is clear to all things in the world. The spiritual perception that originally could not reach very far without relying on the underground sky now covers thousands of miles, and I have seen Li Boping again...

Sure enough, you don’t need to know everything… you just need to be able to coordinate what everyone knows.

The formation has not yet been fully activated, it is just to adjust the energy flow of all parties first... But Zhao Changhe silently used this to step into the second level of the imperial realm.

It was so fast that Sanniang, who had just become the best in the world, was dumbfounded and almost doubted Guisheng.
