The big tactical array in Chang 'an was different from other arrays in the world. It was connected to Heaven and Earth. No matter how serious and seemingly irreversible the damage was, it could repair itself as long as there was enough time.
It was for this reason that the Academy wanted to trap the invincible Abbey Dean in Chang 'an. The Abbey Dean's purpose of entering Chang' an was clear. He wanted to destroy the city.
There was only one way for the Abbey Dean to destroy Chang 'an.
He could only follow the crack in the God-stunning Array. It looked like he was following the Vermilion Bird Avenue, but he actually stepped on the dim spots in the God-stunning Array and entered the palace and the small building.
However, there were countless knife marks on the road. The God-stunning Array mobilized the Qi of Heaven and Earth in Chang 'an and followed the power of nature to force him out of the Limitless State.
Those knife marks were words, telling the Abbey Dean that the road was blocked.
From the market place to the alley, the wind and snow were raging. The Abbey Dean's mind was as cold as his indigo gown. He was sure that he could not enter the palace before he got rid of the Divine Talismans.
There was a direct and simple way to solve the dilemma, and that was to kill Ning Que who had used the Divine Talismans. So the Abbey Dean rode the wind and headed for Yanming Lake.
…
…
Eldest Brother sensed the indigo gown fluttering restlessly in the narrow alley. He knew where he was going with the Limitless State. His heart became as heavy as his footsteps after he was injured.
Using the Limitless State in such a small area was like embroidery in the eye of a needle and flying in a world of sand. Even if he was not injured, he could not catch up with the Abbey Dean.
Even so, he still wanted to catch up, because he could not let his Youngest Brother face the Abbey Dean alone. So he stepped on the snow, leaving a puddle of blood, and his cotton gown trembled. However, he did not enter the Limitless State, because Yu Lian's hand fell on his waist again and grabbed his belt.
"The Abbey Dean is going to kill his Youngest Brother."
Eldest Brother looked into her eyes.
"Yes, this is what he must do now."
Yu Lian answered calmly and did not say anything else.
…
…
The Abbey Dean appeared on the snow bridge by Yanming Lake.
He was far away from the Vermilion Bird Avenue. The God-stunning Array was horrifying. The wind and snow seemed normal but contained infinite power. There was no peaceful laminar flow of the Qi of Heaven and Earth.
No one could enter the Limitless State in such an environment.
The Abbey Dean walked down the snow bridge, crossed the winter reeds and walked to the Yanming Mountain on the south bank of the Snow Lake. He climbed the mountain in the snow and came to the edge of the cliff. However, he did not see anyone.
There were many messy marks on the snow. There were footprints and sitting marks, but most of them were scribbled handwriting. Some words were written with fingers, while others were written with withered branches.
The Abbey Dean looked at the handwriting on the snow and understood what had happened here last night. But where was Ning Que, who had written these words last night and comprehended that word, now?
He looked at the surface of the lake, at the two clear footprints on the surface of the lake, the broken lotus, the broken willow branch, and the broken wintersweet. His eyebrows slowly rose.
There was no trace of Ning Que in his sense of perception and vision. This was against common sense because even with the help of the God-stunning Array, it was impossible for him to completely avoid Haotian's sight.
Someone was helping him hide his aura.
It was probably the owner of the other footprint on the lake.
…
…
A few small round stones fell on the street, smashing holes in the snow. They rolled all the way forward and hit the stone steps on the side of the street, making a crisp sound before slowly coming to a stop.
Those stones were only the size of a fingernail. A deerskin bag could contain a lot of them. If they were used sparingly, they could cover the whole Chang 'an City. Of course, this was an exaggeration.
A faint aura overflowed from those small stones and melded with the tiles and stones around the street. Suddenly, it felt like the Great Blockage Formation in front of the Front Gate of the Devil's Doctrine.
However, those stones were very round and had no edges or corners, which was interesting different from the Great Blockage Formation. They did not blindly fill the sky and the earth, but rather covered everything gently.
Ning Que and Mo Shanshan walked through these small stones.
They had already left the Yanming Lake, passed the closed bun shop, and arrived at the South City.
"I'm afraid that even the Great Divine Priest of Light who created the Great Blockage Formation did not expect that a genius girl of Talisman Taoism could come up with new ideas and transform the Great Blockage Formation into this."
Ning Que said with a smile.
There was no smile on Mo Shanshan's face, only worry. "What should we do next?"
Ning Que said, "The current situation seems complicated, but it is actually very simple. With the Abbey Dean's wisdom, I'm afraid that he has already figured out a way to break the situation. Now he is coming to kill me."
Mo Shanshan said, "The Abbey Dean can also leave Chang 'an City."
Ning Que said, "The Academy does not want him to leave unscathed. An invincible powerhouse outside Chang 'an City represents the failure of the Academy and the Tang Empire. Fortunately or unfortunately, the Abbey Dean himself does not want to leave Chang' an City, because this is the best opportunity for him."
Mo Shanshan looked at the tip of the shoes that kicked out the hem of her cotton skirt from time to time. She wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
Ning Que knew what she was thinking and said, "Eldest Brother naturally wants to save me, but Third Sister will definitely not let him come, because it is meaningless."
Mo Shanshan looked up at him and was somewhat puzzled.
"Unless I can trap the Abbey Dean with the God-stunning Array, or find a way to choose the Abbey Dean from the world of Haotian, Third Sister will not do anything. I won't blame Third Sister, because if it were me, I would do the same. The Academy only has one chance, so we must cherish it. "
Ning Que said, "Now I have to hide myself first, and then find the places where his footsteps fall. I hope I can trap him to death. Let's see who can be faster."
Mo Shanshan did not say anything more. She stretched out her index finger and pushed up her glasses. Looking at a quiet alley in front of her, she said, "Write it here."
Ning Que looked at the alley and raised his knife again. The knife mark disappeared with the wind and snow, leaving no trace, just like the flash of complex emotions on his face.
There used to be two mansions in this alley, one for civil affairs and the other for military affairs. One was the Official of Counsel's Mansion, and the other was the Xuanwei General's Mansion. One was his, and the other was hers.
In a mansion, an old house covered with cobwebs and dust collapsed.
Ning Que heard the sound of the house collapsing, but he did not look in that direction. He continued to walk forward with his knife in hand. Mo Shanshan followed beside him, throwing stones on the street.
From Yanming Lake to Southern City, and then to Eastern City, the two fell and threw stones along the way, avoiding the Abbey Dean's eyes and looking for a way to trap the Abbey Dean to death.
The second floor of the Building of Pines and Cranes collapsed, and the plaque of Chenjinji Cosmetics Store was broken.
Ning Que no longer needed Mo Shanshan to point out the direction. He held one end of the array eye pestle and sensed the indigo robe floating in Chang 'an City. He recalled the black umbrella that passed through Chang' an City years ago, and kept chopping.
Finally, he returned to the familiar Lin 47th Street.
He pushed open the closed wooden door of the Old Brush Pen Shop, looked at the long-lost calligraphy on the wall, and walked to the backyard. He took out his podao and chopped.
A shrill cat's cry came from the wall, and the snow was kicked everywhere by the cat's feet.
The well in the small courtyard broke, and the wall collapsed.
