Chapter 675: Winning and Losing Changes
"Who is this evildoer who dares to steal this Heavenly Master's seat in the Immortal Class?!"

Zhang Xiji frowned and shouted in a low voice, and the divine consciousness surrounding his body surged like a huge wave due to the emotional fluctuations at this moment, sweeping in all directions.

The sudden surge of power caused by anger did not frighten Li Jun. Instead, he took advantage of the gap when Zhang Xiji's spiritual power was declining and forced forward forcefully.

In close combat, except for the rage when one is determined to die, all other emotional ups and downs are just exposed flaws.

Click
A pair of hands covered with armor plates inserted into the Daoxu Divine Thought that was as if it were real, rubbing out sparks and forcibly tearing it apart. A ferocious figure with black and red electric light wrapped around his body successfully squeezed in.

When they were only three feet away, Li Jun stepped on the ground with his right foot, and the ground was instantly crushed to pieces. He twisted his spine behind him, and with a kick and a twist, his right fist, with the newly accumulated sharp force, rushed straight to Zhang Xiji's face!
There was a cold look in the eyes of the exiled immortal. His hands were stained with a lot of Wu Xu's blood, so he naturally knew that if he retreated rashly at this moment, the opponent would take the initiative and he would fall into an endless pursuit.

What's more, there is Yan Dongqing who wants to die behind him. It would be a pity to leave this chess piece here.

Boom!
The force was like a spear with a sharp tip, hitting the seal-shaped shield constructed by the void release technique head-on, and the sudden sound wave was like thunder rolling out of the ground.

The Taoist artifact hanging from the sky cast an endless glow, illuminating the entire ruined city like daylight. In the noisy dust, two blurry figures collided and the light and shadows stirred.

Chen Qisheng was covered in armor and holding a sword, standing in the air. The true energy released from his body intertwined behind him to form a huge shadow of dozens of feet in length.

The face of the Dharma Image had changed from the usual blurry look, and some traces of Chen Qisheng could be seen between his eyebrows and eyes. The Dharma Image raised his sword and pointed it directly at the floating mountain and the blossoming copper lotus, facing each other from a distance.

Boom!

Another loud roar rose from the ground, and two very different figures flew out from the thick smoke and dust.

Li Jun's body sank slightly, and his feet pressed heavily into the ground, plowing out a gravel ditch several feet long. After he stood still, the area within a radius of ten feet suddenly sank several inches. Only then did he completely get rid of the annoying seal carving divine thoughts.

"call"

A mist-like dragon-like essence of lung energy spurted out of Li Jun's nose. As he inhaled a breath of new air into his body, his slightly flagging momentum was boosted again, even more vigorous and excited than before.

Since becoming the third in rank, this was the first time he had fought someone in a one-on-one fight to this extent.

Apart from anything else, Zhang Xiji is indeed second best in terms of how well he can take a beating.

In comparison, although Zhang Xiji's backward movement was not loud, the trembling of his two arms was particularly obvious, causing the sleeves of his Taoist robe to swing continuously.

"Is this leather?"

Zhang Xiji looked down at his open palm, which was eroded but without a trace of blood. The exposed metacarpal bones were full of gaps like they were cut by knives and axes, and the Dao patterns originally carved on them were worn away.

As the divine sense approached, one could immediately feel an indescribable sharpness.

Like a sword on the neck, the sharp point reaches the center of the eyebrows.

Those who touch it will die, and those who block it will be immediately killed.

This is not something that can be achieved simply by tempering the weapon.
"How ridiculous are the rules of the Dream Master and the rules of the Warrior? It's absolutely absurd!"

Zhang Xiji snorted coldly in his heart, and with his concentrated mind, he crushed his hands into pieces inch by inch.

For the new school of Taoism, the appearance is not important at all.

Even if one has attained the eight bodies, in Zhang Xiji's eyes, it is not something that is too precious.

Yan Dongqing, who was standing at the back, saw it all. His expression was as solemn as ever, and his eyes were filled with deep sadness as he looked around, as if he really didn't want to see this tragic situation in the world.

"Master, let's stop here. This disaster has already affected too many innocent people, and I don't want to see you get hurt because of me again."

The Confucian scholar who had gone up the mountain to divert the trouble to the east now kept saying that he did not want to implicate innocent people.

Even though every word was sincere and came from the bottom of his heart, the scene was so funny that it was indescribable.

In the eyes of others, his actions were like fooling a deranged fool.

"Don't talk about anything else. If there is no Heavenly Master, where would you come from?!"

Yan Dongqing couldn't help but frown when he heard the nonsensical reply.

To Yan Dongqing, the other party's words did not sound like an answer to him, but more like a conversation with the innocent souls of all the innocent people in Fuliang City who died tragically under the stars.

But in a moment, Yan Dongqing figured out the reason.

"It seems that Zhang Chongcheng has already started to take action. It's just a pity that no matter how he struggles, he is destined not to leave Longhu Mountain alive."

Yan Dongqing sighed in his heart, but there was not a trace of contempt in his emotion, only regret.

In his opinion, Zhang Chongcheng was not a fool, but a man of extremely strong character.

You must know that since being selected as a helper of Hedao and promoted to Tianshi Mansion, Zhang Chongcheng has been living under the shadow of Zhang Xiji for decades.

Compared with his other two brothers, he is obviously more patient and shrewd, which is why he can still live safely until now after Zhang Chonglian and Zhang Chongyuan failed in their resistance.

But after all, humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless?

Even the new Taoist order that advocates "forgetting emotions" cannot completely ignore the friendship of decades of living side by side and relying on each other.

Watching his two senior brothers die one after another, and seeing Liang Gongming and others joining in, Zhang Chongcheng's patience was completely exhausted.

In particular, Zhang Chongyuan's calm acceptance of his fate after knowing that he would die made his desire to escape from Longhu Mountain reach its peak.

He knew very well that even if he was willing to pretend to be loyal and continue to lurk and wait for the right opportunity, Zhang Xiji would probably not give him this chance. After Fu Li and Liang Gongming died, it would be his turn next.

As long as you are still a chess piece in the hands of others, you will never escape the fate of being exchanged.

It was precisely because of this that he was able to find a loophole and gradually dismantle Zhang Chongcheng's vigilance with the power of "ritual art".

Treat others with courtesy and be sincere.

Zhang Chongcheng chose to believe the promises made by himself and Donghuang Palace, and agreed to lead the people of Donghuang Palace to infiltrate Longhu Cave Heaven in exchange for a seat in the Bingzi Immortal Class that might allow him to escape.

"He Dao He Dao. How can a Huangliang with emotions like joy, anger, sorrow and happiness be considered Dao? And how could he be willing to let people like you Daoxu defile him by snatching and merging with him?"

"A demon fetus born from Taoism can no longer maintain a detached mentality. Even if one's power is close to that of an immortal, he will never be an immortal. Zhang Xiji is one, and so are you, Zhang Chongcheng."

Yan Dongqing made the final judgment on Zhang Chongcheng in just a moment.

"Master, don't lose the big picture for the small!"

Yan Dongqing collected his thoughts and stared at the Taoist's back, saying solemnly: "Although the situation is not favorable at the moment, as long as you are still here, we don't have to worry about the wind and rain. But if you get injured here, even if it's just a little bit, it will be a disaster for the entire Dragon Tiger Dao Kingdom!"

"What you said does make sense."

As Yan Dongqing's eyes suddenly tightened, the person in front of him finally turned around, but the mockery in his eyes was like an eagle or a wolf, which made Yan Dongqing's heart suddenly cold, and he felt a strong sense of uneasiness for no reason.

"Since you are so reasonable, then go and die."

Zhang Xiji raised his hand and his divine consciousness as vast as the ocean wrapped around Yan Dongqing's body and crashed into the black and red lightning that was shooting close to the ground.

Li Jun stopped abruptly and held Yan Dongqing's head with one arm. A pair of restless eyes appeared between his fingers and kept moving.

"Li Jun, there is definitely something wrong with these things. Don't kill me, we still have cooperation." Yan Dongqing's hurried and uneasy voice came from the palm of his hand.

Li Jun turned his head and interrupted him: "Of course there is a problem, but it's too late for you to understand it now."

"Oh, by the way, Old Man Zhang asked me to tell you something. These tricks of yours are left over from his past. Although they are outdated, they are not too bad. But you should never be so confident as to play tricks on a group of No. 2s."

"They can lose many times, but if you lose once, the only outcome is death."

Yan Dongqing's eyes suddenly widened, and all of a sudden, a question involuntarily popped up in his mind.

Since Zhang Chongcheng could be deceived by the East Palace, why did he believe that the East Palace would reincarnate for him? !

The voice of self-questioning roared in his mind like thunder, causing Yan Dongqing's heart to be filled with shock and fear!
"No, I was not deceived. My life is still valuable to them. I can split the Confucian order for them and restrain Zhang Fengyue! They will not give up on me easily!"

"But if you fall into the hands of that group of people, even if you survive, will you still be you? Will you still be you when they need you? Yan Dongqing, a quick-learned Confucian scholar like you, can you tell the difference between what is true and what is false?"

Between life and death, Yan Dongqing seemed to have truly achieved the detachment he had just joked about, and answered the questions that were lingering in his heart from the perspective of an observer.

Suddenly, his thoughts and vision became clear at the same time.

The two eyeballs that popped out of their sockets made Yan Dongqing see an upside-down, yet equally pitch-black world.

"Sure enough, they have no idea. Each of them has a really fucking dirty heart, but luckily, Old Man Zhang is the dirtiest one among them."

Li Jun cursed and stopped looking at the corpse that was blown to pieces by the explosive force under his feet. He looked at Zhang Xiji again.

When their eyes met, they all felt a bone-chilling coldness.

At this point, no one needs to play crazy or stupid anymore, as everyone can see clearly where the knife in the other party's hand is pointing and who it is aimed at.

The key now is who moves faster!
Whether in a dream or outside a dream!

clang!
The crossed glances separated instantly, and Li Jun and Zhang Xiji looked up at the sky at the same time.

A gigantic Dharma image towered over the mountain, holding a deep blue sword in both hands, and slashed fiercely at the blooming copper lotus!
clang!
A broken lotus petal smashed into the mountain, causing rocks to collapse, grass and trees to fall over, the mountain shaking continuously, and the suspended height was split and sank.

Higher up, giant swords were circling in formation, with brilliant light condensed on the tips of the swords, but they dared not let go, for fear of bringing harm to Kunlun, who was closely overlapping with the Dharmakāya figure.

No matter whether it is the new Taoist order or the Taoist magic weapon, once someone gets close to you, it will be equally embarrassing.

This is true in the sky and on the earth.

"The remnants of Wudang."

Zhang Xiji's eyes were filled with murderous intent, but before he could make any move, black and red lightning suddenly appeared before his eyes.

"Old man, you are just a remnant of the damned!"

boom!
The ghosts of the wronged linger in Fuliang City, while the lights on Longhu Mountain are bright.

Among the majestic peaks, the tallest one is where the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain is located.

"Father."

A tightly closed door of a secret room was pushed open, and the dispelled shadows revealed the figure of Zhang Chongcheng sitting cross-legged.

"Father, you should wake up."

Zhang Qingli slowly squatted down, his eyes level with those tightly closed eyes.

Perhaps it was the throbbing of his blood, or perhaps it was a flash of light at the moment of death. Zhang Chongcheng actually broke free from the dream and opened his eyes tremblingly.

"Li'er."

There was no more madness and obsession in the dark pupils, no more hatred and resentment, only peace and a faint attachment.

Zhang Qingli nodded and replied, "I'm here."

"I lost for my father. I struggled all my life, but I didn't expect that I would lose because of a moment of confusion."

Zhang Chongcheng's voice was gentle, as if he was reflecting on himself or giving a warning.

"You were not confused for a moment, but were doomed to lose from the beginning."

Zhang Qingli supported his father's body as he was about to collapse, and said slowly: "If you had killed Master Chonglian, who Zhang Xiji was living in, with Master Chongyuan when he was at his weakest on the day he entered the Tianshi Mansion, how could you have been in fear for decades? How could you feel unwilling today?"

"you"

An expression of disbelief emerged on Zhang Chongcheng's face. He raised his hand tremblingly, trying to push Zhang Qingli away, but the latter gently pressed his arm down.

"Father, have you really never regretted this?"

Zhang Qingli lowered his head and hid the expression on his face in the shadows.

Zhang Chongcheng looked at the head that was so close to him, his lips moved, his teeth opened and closed, and after twitching for a while, he actually smiled.

"I do regret Qingli. You are better than your father. At least now, I can see you clearly."

"No, you still don't understand."

Pfft!

Zhang Chongcheng suddenly bent his body backwards. He clearly felt a hand stirring in his abdomen, searching carefully for something.

"Father, please don't die yet, otherwise this foundation of Taoism will be wasted."

With a creepy, sticky and slippery sound, a Taoist foundation as solid as a golden elixir was pulled out of the body.

Zhang Qingli untied his Taoist robe, cut open the flesh on his abdomen with his fingertips, and slowly implanted his father's Taoist foundation into his body.

"Father, Zhang Xiji can eat you, so why can't you eat others? Since you have chosen to cultivate immortality, you call yourself a non-human. What's wrong with eating humans?"

"Although you were so cruel as to kill Master Chongyuan and used his life to gain Zhang Xiji's trust, you still woke up too late."

Zhang Qingli finally looked up, and he stood up. He raised his hand and patted his belly, grinning and said, "Father, what are dragons and tigers? They are clearly man-eating beasts!"

The surging blood blocked his throat, so Zhang Chongcheng could only make "cough cough" sounds.

He raised his head with all his strength to look at Zhang Qingli's back as he turned and left without any reluctance. A last trace of relief flashed through his eyes which were about to fade away.

"Brothers, did you see that? This mountain is really interesting."

Zhang Chongcheng fell backwards, and in a trance, he saw his fellow brothers floating above his head, reaching out to him.

"Let's go. This is a relief."
