Pawn Crossing the River

Qi Xuansu thought about it but had no idea. Moreover, the first day of the new year had already passed, so he couldn't go to the "dream meeting" and had to wait until the fifteenth day.

He actually contacted Qiniang and asked if the "blood pill" could be cut open and taken, but after thinking about it, he gave up. Firstly, Qiniang seemed to be very busy, and secondly, there were not too many Zimu talismans, so he couldn't be more casual. Use it indiscriminately to avoid being unable to contact Qiniang at the critical moment.

Another point is that Qi Xuansu himself thinks this idea is very unreliable. A watermelon can be stored for more than ten days, but if it is split and not eaten, it will go bad in two days. The same goes for elixirs. Cutting them directly will lose the potency.

Qi Xuansu could only stay in the contact point and practice step by step, continue to advance the progress of the spine, and wait for the "dream meeting" in the middle of the month.

Compared with the calmness of Qingpinghui, the undercurrents inside the Taoist Gate finally turned into turbulent waves on the surface.

Zhang Yuelu dressed in formal attire and took Mu Jin to the special port on Mount Yuzhu.

A gust of cold wind blew past with snowflakes, and Mu Jin shivered as she looked at the dim sky and the lake under the sky.

Ordinary flying boats do not dock here, only Dao Sect's warships dock.

In the huge lake dug by manpower, there is a huge towering ship. It is so majestic, like a mountain or a ridge, and the people underneath it are like ants, but this giant ship is on the verge of collapse and is teetering.

The Dao Sect dispatched four Zhenzhi Zhenren and twelve Zhenzhi, and used a lot of material resources to bring it back to Kunlun through formations.

Originally, they only wanted to bring back the most precious dragon beads and part of the keel, but Jinque finally decided to bring the entire warship back to Kunlun as a warning to the Taoist sect.

There was no formation covering Yuzhu Peak, the cold wind was howling, and Zhang Yuelu's crane cloak was blown loudly. There were many people around, either with sad faces or solemn faces.

The atmosphere is heavy.

Zhang Yuelu had no expression on his face, just looking at the "Yinglong" giant ship.

At this moment, a black spot in the mid-air grew from small to large, gradually occupying half of the sky, occupying everyone's sight, and making the atmosphere suddenly become more solemn.

This is another "Yinglong" warship, falling from a high altitude with huge pressure.

A real person has already stepped forward to greet him, while the rest of the people who do not have the cultivation level of a celestial being are smart enough to stand where they are and cannot get closer.

The giant ship known as one of the two dragons suddenly landed in the lake that was not frozen all year round due to the formation, arousing huge water mist. In the cold wind, the saturated water vapor encountered condensation and instantly turned into neither ice nor snow. of rime.

The rime is foggy, and the sky, clouds, mountains and water are all white.

But at this time, no one was in the mood to appreciate such a spectacle, but all looked at the deck of the "Yinglong" warship.

A gangway for four people to walk side by side was lowered. The first thing that appeared was a group of high-level spiritual officers, wearing armor as black as ink, airtight and not revealing at all. The armor leaves were painted with complex and obscure talismans, and around their waists Wearing a sword, holding a spear in one hand, and a large shield in the other.

After the spiritual officers came down the gangway, they lined up on both sides in a figure-eight shape and stood solemnly.

In an era when firearms flourished, even the Taoist priests of Tiangang Hall began to issue fire guns, but these spiritual officials still relied on ancient swords, guns and armor as their foundation.

And these are all high-grade spiritual officers, the lowest are fourth-grade spiritual officers, and the two leaders are third-grade spiritual officers. The dark armor is completely different from the armor of the man in black. It is deep and mysterious, like the night sky, sucking the soul. It makes people afraid to look directly.

Behind this team of spiritual officers were four second-grade spiritual officers. They carried an ebony coffin with a white brocade covering, and walked down the broad ramp step by step.

The heavy footsteps seemed to step on everyone's heart.

Everyone held their breath.

In the coffin was Shangguan Jing, the seventh deputy head of Tiangang Hall and a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest, who died in battle.

This is the highest-level Taoist priest who has died in Taoist battles in recent years.

Although it is often said that Taoist sects have nine levels and twelve levels, Zhizhen Zhenren and real people are not the same, but the official level is only nine levels. Putting aside the super-level master, the second-level Taiyi Taoist priest is second only to The existence of an innocent Taoist priest.

Among the dead and injured last time, the highest was only a fourth-grade Taoist priest, but this time he became a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest. In other words, the "Yinglong" warship can be destroyed and the second-grade Taiyi Taoist priests can die. Except for those first-grade innocent Taoist priests, who dares to say that they will not suffer such a disaster?

Even those who have a rift with Shangguan Jing will feel sad at this moment.

The last ones who appeared were Master Cihang, Master Zhang of Tiangang Hall, and Master of Kunlun Taoist Palace. The three Masters did not fly in the sky, but returned on the "Yinglong" warship like ordinary disciples, and walked down the gangway step by step. .

The real person in charge of Tiangang Hall remained calm, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking in his heart.

However, everyone understood that this well-known Shenzhi master had to bear most of the responsibility for this matter, and his future was uncertain.

At this moment, in the distance, the sound of bells came from the north wind, and they sounded desolately, shaking everyone's heart.

This is the death knell.

Zhang Yuelu closed his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

Mu Jin clasped her hands together and whispered "Tai Yi's Sutra of Saving the Suffering Heavenly Master from Rebirth".

There were many people who behaved like Mu Jin, and they soon gathered into clearly audible whispers, echoing on Yuzhu Peak.

The death knell was still ringing, and in the distance, other bells echoed, spreading in all directions.

Four second-grade spiritual officers carried Shangguan Jing's coffin towards Yujing on Yuxu Peak, accompanied by the real person in charge of Tiangang Hall and the master of Kunlun Taoist Palace.

The representative of the Donghua Immortal Association outside Yujing City greeted him on duty, which was extremely sad and honorable.

However, Master Cihang stopped next to Zhang Yuelu.

Without Zhang Yuelu's instructions, Mu Jin took the initiative to leave, and the others also had the discernment to avoid the master and disciple.

Master Cihang and Zhang Yuelu walked side by side.

Zhang Yuelu asked: "What is going on?"

Master Cihang replied: "It's hard to say anything without evidence."

Zhang Yuelu already understood.

Master Cihang continued: "It has been planned for a long time. Shangguan Jing seemed to be aware of it, but when he was still hesitating whether to go to the report door, he encountered a vicious attack. He did not expect Wu Luo to come so quickly."

Zhang Yuelu said softly: "It's Wu Luo again. This ancient immortal is very... bold."

Master Cihang shook his head and said: "What does this mean? Wu Luo was the main promoter of Wu Xian's murder. He was the master of Lingshan, the leader of the ten witches, and almost the leader of the ancient witch sect. It is said that the ten witches in ancient times were sisters, and the witches Luo dares to attack her eldest sister, but killing people from our Taoist sect means nothing to her. "

Zhang Yuelu was silent for a moment and whispered: "Blood debt must be paid with blood."

Master Cihang said calmly: "Thanks to the Earth Master's foresight this time, the situation did not deteriorate to the worst point."

"What's the worst step?" Zhang Yuelu couldn't help but said, "Everyone is already dead."

Master Cihang said: "Not to mention those who survived, for example, the blood sacrifice is enough to make people have no peace after death."

Zhang Yuelu was silent.

Master Cihang sighed: "All the external problems of the Taoist sect are actually rooted in the internal problems of the Taoist sect. How dare they do this when the Five Dynasties were the great masters?"

Zhang Yuelu did not ask who this "they" referred to.

Master Cihang said: "You must be mentally prepared. This is just the beginning, and the show has just begun."
