Starting from the martial arts world, Gan became a true master of martial arts.

Chapter 261 Old Monk, Wall Guardian
In the Houxuan Mountain area north of Wanzhou, a man with bare chest and abdomen was holding a wine jug in his hand and three wine jugs hanging around his waist.

Although the man was drunk and staggering, every time he took a disorderly step, he would move forward thirty or four feet. Even on this rugged mountain road, his feet were still flying.

Soon, a long-abandoned ancient temple appeared in front of him. He burped and stamped his feet.

A barefoot old monk in monk's robes suddenly appeared not far away.

The man glanced at the barefoot old monk and said with a smile, "Where is your eating tool?"

The old monk's face was gloomy. "You know that the bowl can suppress things. If you have something to say, just say it."

The man wiped his mouth and asked bluntly: "The Dayang Dynasty has run out of luck, why do you want to give the three southern states back to the Dayang royal family?"

The old monk remained silent.

The man said calmly, "This is a serious matter. I am in no mood to waste time with you. If you don't speak, I will smash your golden body into pieces and cut off your lineage from this world."

The old monk's face gradually became serious. In his impression, the man was addicted to alcohol, but he had never been as serious as he was today. So he asked, "Before you answer, can I know the reason?"

The man nodded and said, "A secret realm has been destroyed, and the formation of the spring has loosened. The dragon energy of the Dayang Dynasty is no longer enough to suppress those things."

The old monk suddenly felt heavy-hearted.

The man said with a grim tone and a cold smile, "I advise you not to get involved. I know you have a close relationship with that crazy old man, but when it comes to betting, if you bet on the wrong thing, you can never recover.

Maybe you've made a wrong bet again. I'm sure no one will be willing to risk their lives to help you retrieve the broken golden body from the netherworld."

The old monk smiled sadly, his face became a little sad, and he slowly said: "The Nine Provinces are in chaos, and among the heroes, no one has dragon energy. But now if we don't use the remaining dragon energy of the Dayang Dynasty to suppress that cave heaven, you know the consequences better than me!"

Seeing the man's expression gradually ease up, the old monk continued: "If another person with dragon fortune appears in Dayang martial arts, I will naturally help him rebuild the country. During this period, you guards will need to spend more effort!"

Hearing this, the man nodded slightly, picked up the wine pot in his hand and took a sip of the wine in it, and said slowly: "Yanzhou Red Eyebrows have become a force to be reckoned with.

"The blue sky is dead, the red sky should be established." The slogan is really domineering. Since you need to continue to borrow the remaining dragon energy of Dayang, the Red Eyebrow Army needs your special attention!"

As he spoke, the man took off a wine flask from his waist, threw it to the old man, turned around and staggered away along the mountain road, "Don't say nonsense like monks don't like wine and women, the things in it are good for your golden body!"

After taking the wine pot, the barefoot old monk's solemn face showed a faint smile. He looked at the man staggering on the mountain road and asked, "Where are you going?"

The man waved his hand and shouted, "Go to North Vietnam and pacify the wilderness!"

Yefu Pass is the border between Zhongzhou and Yanzhou.

The city gates were wide open, and the few cavalry stationed in the city chose to march at night, which was a rare move. Although there were only a few thousand of them in total, the neatly-organized war horses trampled on the ground, as if the gods were hammering thunder, and the earth was shaking at this moment, making people's blood boil.

Outside the post station, a military officer stood beside a warhorse, holding the reins, his face solemn.

After a while, the deputy general rode his horse and pulled the reins, stopped beside the general, and asked softly: "General Zhou, what is the purpose of the army going north this time? The Yanzhou Red Eyebrow Army is in full swing. Even if the prince wants to recapture Yanzhou, there is no need for our army to go out, right?"

The burly general glanced at his deputy general and said in a low voice: "Do your own thing and don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask!"

The young deputy general grinned and really didn't ask any further questions.

The general's face was solemn. After hesitating for a moment, he was obviously feeling very uncomfortable. After considering for a while, he whispered, "Not only the few troops in our Yefu Pass, but all the cavalry in the military towns connecting Zhongzhou and Yanzhou should be withdrawn half and all of them should be dispatched tonight!"

The young deputy general was stunned for a moment. "Is the prince really going to start the campaign against the Yanzhou rebels? But there are still rebels in Jingzhou and Wanzhou ready to make a move. Wouldn't it be too risky to go to war with the Red Eyebrow Army directly now?"

The general did not directly answer the deputy general's curiosity. He jumped on his horse and said, "After arriving at the temporary station, all the troops will receive orders from the Ministry of War. Let's not have any wild thoughts!"

More than 300 miles north of Yefu Pass, in the upper reaches of the vast Huajiang River, there is a small hill in the center of the river. The turbulent river is constantly eroding the hill, making a temple built on the hill precarious.

The night in late autumn is cold and desolate, and the river flows eastward.

In the temple, a middle-aged man in a green robe was reading by lamplight, holding a book.

In this chaotic Dayang Dynasty, it is obviously extremely inappropriate.

At this moment, a barefoot old monk suddenly appeared in the temple and stood in front of the Buddha statue in silence.

When the green-shirted man saw the old monk, his nervousness flashed away, and he forced a smile on his face. He put his hands together and said to the barefoot old monk: "Master, why are you here?"

The barefoot old monk ignored the man and continued to look at the Buddha statue calmly. After a while, he slowly said, "That Red Eyebrowed Great Master should have become a Martial Saint by now!"

The man in green nodded, with gratitude in his eyes: "I have to thank the master for the opportunity he gave me. The Great Dao Master broke through the fifth level half a month ago."

The barefoot old monk then turned around and nodded slightly: "The realm of Blood Martial Saint is barely enough."

"The building is about to collapse. Whether the Nine Provinces can usher in a new world, and whether the Red Eyebrow Army can truly create eternal peace and establish immortal achievements in troubled times, all depends on this battle."

"Give Hongmei a message. After this battle, I will take away Hongmei's dragon energy for thirty years."

Go ahead, a faint smile appeared on the old monk's face, and he turned his eyes slightly and continued to look at the Buddha statue in front of him.

Suddenly, golden light shone brightly on his body, and the entire huge Buddha statue began to flow with golden light, which finally poured into the barefoot old monk.

"Haizhou?" A gleam of light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the old monk of the Guang family, and his figure instantly disappeared on the spot.

Yuanling City. Sihai Pavilion.

Fang Xuan sat cross-legged on the spot, and a pale yellow light shield in the room completely enveloped Fang Xuan.

The light in the light shield was emitted from a round jade floating in front of Fang Xuan's eyes.

It was one of the three round jades that Pei Qian had given out before. Although it was not an expensive thing, it could conceal the aura and was very useful.

On the ground in front of Fang Xuan, there was an ancient small tripod. A steady stream of white light poured into the small tripod from all directions, and then turned into a light blue tassel and poured into Fang Xuan's Danhai.

Fang Xuan's body was now covered with black dragon scales. A dark light emanated from the scales, containing an extremely terrifying energy.

If it weren't for this simple formation, many warriors would have been alarmed at this moment.

Fang Xuan slowly opened his eyes, white steam surged over his body. After a moment, as the black scales on Fang Xuan's body dissipated, the room returned to calm.

"瓓!"

With a soft call, a line of small black words slowly flashed in Fang Xuan's eyes.

The great improvement in the progress of Hunyuan Hualong Jue made Fang Xuan's heart move slightly.

Since leaving the East China Sea, the progress of the Hunyuan Hualong Jue has stagnated for quite some time.

According to Pu Anyu's explanation, the Soul Gathering Cauldron on Kunwu Mountain is extremely useful. After Fang Xuan used it, he was surprised to find that it could greatly improve his progress in practicing the Hunyuan Hualong Jue.

Although it is still some distance away from perfection, Fang Xuan can clearly feel the power of this technique from the dragon energy surging in his body.

"Not bad, but you have to use it with caution."

Fang Xuan carefully put away the Spirit Gathering Cauldron and simply adjusted his breath.

The trip to the secret realm was fruitful.
