The carving knife pierced into his heart, and Salen Agu couldn't help but let out a roar, as if he was suffering from the flames of hell. His voice was mournful and desolate.
"With the Grand Wizard's watertight defense, he must have divined for himself before the battle to see if he was lucky. If not for the Supervisor helping me block the carving knife and conceal the secrets of heaven, it would have been almost impossible to plot against the Grand Wizard.
"Warlocks are born from wizards, and only they can deal with wizards' divinations. Without the help of the Supervisor, it's too difficult to fight you. "
Wei Yuan's carving knife pushed into Salen Agu's heart bit by bit, causing the spiritual power in his body to wildly pour out. Under the erosion of the carving knife, his body's functions were rapidly annihilated.
In just two or three seconds, Salen Agu had aged twenty years. His appearance was haggard, as if he would "die of old age" at any moment.
The situation suddenly reversed. The expressions of the two third-grade Spirit Intellects changed wildly. They tacitly responded in the same way, aiming their palms at Salen Agu and Wei Yuan.
Their left palms glowed red, stimulating Salen Agu's vitality to resist the erosion of the Confucian Sages's carving knife. Their right palms launched a killing curse at Wei Yuan through the air.
"Humph!"
Wei Yuan stretched out his left palm and grabbed the Grand Wizard's neck. His right hand pulled out the carving knife and stabbed Salen Agu's head from the side.
First, he used the carving knife's power to wear down the body's functions so that he couldn't resist. Then, he used the carving knife to destroy the opponent's spirit, completely destroying the first-grade wizard's soul.
At that moment, a sword light flashed.
Puff!
Blood splattered. Wei Yuan was stunned to see his arm cut off, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
The severed arm, along with the Confucian Sages's carving knife, was held by a hand.
It was an arm intertwined with golden and black light; the arm that reached out from between Salen Agu's eyebrows.
Wei Yuan frowned and retreated without the slightest hesitation. Hovering in the air, he examined Salen 'Agu.
Crack, crack … Flesh and blood intertwined and wriggled. Bones regenerated, and a brand new arm formed.
Whoosh! Wei Yuan let out a breath, and the protective divine light once again covered his body, condensing into copper skin and iron bones.
Just now, his arm was chopped off, not because his defense was not strong enough. Previously, he showed weakness to the enemy, and the three high-ranked sorcerers used their blood as a medium to cast the curse killing technique. Wei Yuan was seriously injured on the spot, and the physique that the Warrior was proud of was broken.
Then, he seized the opportunity to surprise the Great Wizard Salen Agu with the Confucian Sages Carving Knife.
This series of actions not only had to show weakness, but he also had to seize the fleeting opportunity. He could not allow Wei Yuan to recover his copper skin and iron bones.
However, he did not expect the other party to have a backup plan.
A man wearing a dragon robe slowly emerged from Salen Agu's body. His facial features were regular, his eyebrows were slightly thick, and his eyes were filled with deep malice.
Upon closer inspection, the dragon-robed man's body was as flawless as jade. Golden splendor and black light intertwined on the surface of his body, making him look both holy and evil.
Yang Spirit!
Joan of Arc!
"I know that you, Wei Yuan, are good at scheming. Since you dared to attack Jingshan City, you must have something to rely on. You've played with me for so long, and I've played with you for so long. We just want to see what cards the other party has up their sleeves. "
Salen Agu smiled and said, "The Confucian Sages Carving Knife. I didn't expect you to use the Confucian Sages Carving Knife. Tsk tsk, you, Wei Yuan, are actually a person who cares about the common people."
The surface of his body flickered, and the flesh and blood on his chest squirmed. In a flash, he recovered to his original state, and the wrinkles on his skin faded.
However, the aura of this first-grade sorcerer had weakened a lot.
Just like Wei Yuan's Vitality, it had now fallen to the peak of third-grade.
Crack, crack …
His bones shattered, and his flesh collapsed and contracted. The dragon-robed man refined Wei Yuan's arm into pure Vitality, and opened his mouth to absorb it.
"The taste is not bad. I think your Vitality is even better."
The dragon-robed man smiled as he held the Confucian Sages Carving Knife in his palm. A thick liquid full of filth and depravity gushed out, eroding the Confucian Sages Carving Knife little by little, obliterating its spirituality.
It was just like how the Earth Sect's Taoist Leader had temporarily polluted the Nation Guarding Sword's spirituality.
Wei Yuan looked at him deeply, as if he was sad and disappointed. He let out a long sigh and said, "So it's you, it's really you!"
Queen Joan of Arc snorted, and the corners of her mouth curved into a cruel and sinister smile. She looked at the Confucian Sages Carving Knife that was slowly covered by the thick black liquid and said,
"I need some time to seal it, and you also need some time to recover. For the sake of the more than 20 years of friendship between you and me, you can ask whatever you want."
Salen Agu did not object. His injuries were more serious than Wei Yuan's.
"The organization controlled by Count Pingyuan is working for you, right?" Wei Yuan said.
Queen Joan of Arc nodded and said with a sneer, "You think you are good for the country and its people, but if you didn't push Count Pingyuan, I wouldn't have tried to kill him, and the massacre in Chu Zhou City wouldn't have happened."
"So I let you continue to eat the lives of innocent people?"
Wei Yuan took out a porcelain bottle, popped the cork, and poured all the Qi Replenishing Elixirs into his mouth.
A few seconds later, his face returned to normal, and he heaved a sigh and said, "When did you become like this?"
The dragon-robed man smiled and said, "26 years ago, the Dao Master of the Earth Sect polluted me."
After a pause, he looked into the distance and said slowly, "My body has always been weak.
"My body has always been weak. Those miraculous elixirs that can bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh and bones are not of much use to me. As the monarch of a country, he was blessed by destiny. How long he could live was already predetermined.
"In the past, I didn't think there was anything good about immortality. But as I grew older, I began to fear death and longed for immortality. But even Confucian Sages couldn't fight against the rules of heaven and earth, let alone me.
"Until 26 years ago, the Dao Master of the Earth Sect polluted me. He told me that the ruler of the world couldn't live forever. Even the Supreme Grade couldn't change this outcome. But he could let me live longer, much longer than a normal ruler.
"At that time, my body was getting weaker and weaker. I couldn't resist his bewitchment, so I agreed."
Wei Yuan narrowed his eyes and said, "So, 26 years ago, you ate Lord Huai."
An evil look appeared on Queen Joan of Arc's face, and she shook her head.
"No, it was assimilation. I refined his soul and took over his memory. He was me, and I was him. This was one of the secrets of the Three Pure Ones.
"But if I took over someone else's body, the body and the soul wouldn't be compatible, and the consequences would be endless. How could I do something like burning my own path of retreat?
"Unfortunately, I wasn't a true Daoist. Even with the help of the Earth Sect's Dao Master, my main soul was still incomplete after I forcefully refined Lord Huai's soul."
Without the help of the Earth Sect's Dao Master, he couldn't have used the Three Pure Ones.
Wei Yuan thought for a moment and said, "What about Yuan Jing? Was he also devoured by you?"
Queen Joan of Arc shook her head and said,
"The two brothers should have assimilated with me at that time. But like I said, after I refined Lord Huai's soul, my main soul couldn't repair the part that was taken away, so it was incomplete.
"Under such circumstances, how could I devour Yuan Jing? I had to change my plan and let the Dao Master of the Earth Sect use a Daoist Hypnosis Spell to erase Yuan Jing's memory. Then, he planted a seed of demonic thoughts in his sea of consciousness.
"As for me, after making all the necessary preparations, I faked my death and hid in the Dragon Vein. It was the only place I could hide from the Supervisor's eyes. I lay dormant quietly, waiting for an opportunity to refine Yuanjing.
"To my surprise, Yuan Jing used me as a warning and no longer delegated power to the Grand Secretary. He worked hard to govern the country while weighing the pros and cons. Great Feng's national strength was growing by the day, and with its luck, I had no chance to devour it, until you appeared … "
Wei Yuan was stunned.
"Have you forgotten?"
Queen Joan of Arc stared at Wei Yuan and the smile on her face grew bigger and bigger.
"In the sixth year of Yuan Jing's reign, General Dugu of the North passed away. You personally led the troops and defeated the barbarian army. Why don't you think about why you went to war? "
Wei Yuan's eyes widened as if he was struck by lightning.
"Hahaha …" Queen Joan of Arc laughed wildly.
"The Empress of Daibun, the motherly Empress of the world, actually ate with a eunuch in the palace. And that eunuch was her childhood sweetheart. No man could bear such a blow, let alone an obstinate emperor like Yuan Jing. "
He laughed wildly, wantonly, and his body rocked back and forth as he laughed.
"From then on, the demonic thoughts in Yuan Jing's mind finally awakened, slowly eroding him and polluting him. The reason why Yuan Jing didn't kill you and the Empress was that he was affected by the demonic thoughts and became cold and cunning. After learning about the past between you and the Empress, he changed his mind and wanted to use the Empress to control you.
"Then came the Battle of Shanhai Pass, which shook the fate of Daibun. At the end of the Battle of Shanhai Pass, I took the opportunity to refine Yuan Jing and replace him.
"After replacing Yuan Jing, I learned from the painful experience and stopped touching women, concentrating on cultivation. While refining pills and taking bait, I let Count Pingyuan continue to rob people. After more than 40 years, I finally cultivated the Yang Spirit and entered the Second Grade Tribulation Stage. Wei Yuan, do you think I should thank you? "
The real Yuan Jing had passed away 20 years ago.
"By the way, I can tell you another secret. The person who secretly told Yuan Jing about your relationship with the Empress was the Crown Prince's mother, Imperial Concubine Chen." Empress Zhen De threw another bomb.
"Imperial Concubine Chen …" Wei Yuan was silent for a long time. "Why did the Earth Sect's Taoist Master go through so much trouble to help you?"
Empress Zhen De sneered. "At that time, the Earth Sect's Taoist Master was already showing signs of turning into a demon, but the good thoughts were stronger than the evil thoughts, so he suppressed them. In order to prevent himself from being refined and eliminated, the evil thoughts thought of a way.
"During the discussion, the evil thoughts sensed my desire for immortality and secretly polluted me, magnifying my desire for immortality. "Then, one day, when I had the chance to temporarily control the body, he bewitched me and plotted with me.
"After that, the Earth Sect's Taoist Master returned to the sect and went into seclusion. The good and evil thoughts were entangled for 40 years. Forty years later, the Earth Sect's Taoist Master turned into a demon and his Primordial Spirit was split. The good thoughts lingered on and escaped.
Wei Yuan took out another porcelain bottle and swallowed a pill. He pondered for a moment and said,
"He bewitched the king to live forever and devoured his own son. For the past 40 years, the people had no way to live and the country's power was on the decline. He was bound to be plagued by evil … So, after 40 years, the Earth Sect's Taoist Master completely turned into a demon. However, there's one thing I don't understand. Even though you have achieved the Three Pure Ones with One Breath and have your current cultivation, you are still the king of the world. How do you achieve immortality? "
Empress Zhen De's eyes were filled with malice. She glanced at the Confucian Sages carving knife and said softly.
"Later on, someone taught me how to live a long life as an emperor. His words truly enlightened me. For the past 20 years, all my plans were because of that person. Including today, using the Sorcerer God as bait to lure you was the most important step in my plan. "
The carving knife was completely polluted and lost all its spirituality.
"Although I can only corrupt it for half a minute, it's enough." Empress Zhen De threw it off the cliff and turned to look at Wei Yuan. She smiled sinisterly.
"How are you going to overtake us and seal the Sorcerer God?"
There was a Grand Wizard, two Spirit Intellects, and a Tribulation Passing Stage powerhouse.
Wei Yuan was alone, a Warrior of the Second Stage.
Empress Zhen De raised her hand as if she was pinching something from the air. She pinched it with her fingertips and flicked it.
A Sword Qi whizzed out. One turned into two, two turned into three, and three turned into thousands.
The dense Sword Qi was like a school of fish at the bottom of the sea. It was like a torrential flood, shooting towards Wei Yuan.
Every Sword Qi could easily kill a Fourth Stage powerhouse. In addition, the Sword Qi was mixed with Vital Spirit attacks.
Renzong's Sword Qi and Heart Sword were one.
Wei Yuan crossed his arms in front of his chest and moved forward against the dense rain of Sword Qi. Ding, ding, ding … His body exploded with a dazzling light.
At a certain moment, the Sword Qi tore Wei Yuan apart, causing him to dissipate like an illusion.
Empress Zhen De rode the golden light and retreated.
Wei Yuan's figure reappeared, but he missed.
Apart from Buddhist monks, no other High Stage powerhouse dared to let the Warrior get close to them.
The two of them chased each other through the mountains. Layers of Qi explosions stacked on top of each other, causing the mountains to collapse and boulders to tumble down. At a certain moment, a large part of the forest suddenly "slid down", with a neat fracture.
Sometimes, the sound of Qi explosions could be heard from the sea, causing raging waves and tsunamis.
But no matter how hard the bystanders tried, they could not see the figures of the two Peak powerhouses.
In this battle, Ilbu and Wu Da Pagoda, who were Third Stage powerhouses, could only be used as support. Occasionally, they would seize the opportunity to interfere with Wei Yuan's curses.
Or, they could use the core ability of the Spirit Intellect to give Empress Zhen De's Sword Qi spirituality, so that they would not miss. This way, they could slowly wear down Wei Yuan's Qi and blood.
Apart from wearing down, there was almost no other way for the major systems to quickly kill a Third Stage Warrior.
Salen Agu did not participate in the battle. He sighed. "A Warrior who can break formations is really a headache."
His figure blurred again, as if he was separated from the real world by an invisible curtain.
Salen Agu raised his voice. "Empress Zhen De, I will lend you the Celestiality of this area. Are you confident that you can kill Wei Yuan?"
Empress Zhen De stopped in the air and laughed wildly. "Thank you, Great Wizard, for helping me kill this traitor."
Salen Agu lifted his foot and stomped. "The earth gave me spirituality."
Rocks weathered and the soil turned into yellow sand. Waves of Earth and Metal Spiritual Energy, using Salen Agu as a medium, escaped into the void and poured onto Empress Zhen De.
"The plants gave me spirituality."
Flowers and trees withered at a speed visible to the naked eye. The verdant Wood Spiritual Energy poured onto Empress Zhen De's body.
"The ocean gave me spirituality."
The sparkling surface of the sea and the pitch-black Water Spiritual Energy poured onto Empress Zhen De's body.
"The Fire Beacon gave me spirituality …"
As the Celestiality of Heaven and Earth was absorbed, Empress Zhen De's aura grew. At this moment, he seemed to have become the ruler of this place, looking down coldly at the traitor.
Empress Zhen De slowly "pulled out" a sword. From the void, he pulled out a sword with the five colors of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. The power of the Five Elements, the foundation of all things.
Ilbu, Wu Da's Pagoda and Salen Agu reached out at the same time, using their core abilities as Spirit Wisdom Masters to give the sword spirituality.
After doing all this, Salen Agu, the Great Wizard of the Witchcraft Religion, a First Stage Wizard, quickly weakened.
A First Stage Wizard was close to exhaustion.
In the next hundred years, the area around Jing Mountain would turn into a wasteland.
The sword's aura grew again.
This sword seemed to have surpassed the grade of the sword.
Empress Zhen De's hand trembled as she held the sword, as if she could not control it.
The power of two Rank-3s, one Rank-1s, and one Rank-2s was condensed in this strike.
In this era, it would be invincible.
On the distant battlefield, whether it was the Great Feng Army or the Northeast Army, every soldier felt the brilliant might of the heavens. A great fear rose in their hearts. Some covered their heads and scurried away like rats, some defecated and urinated, and some died on the spot from fear.
Zhang Kaitai and the other experts felt their scalps go numb. They suppressed their fear and looked at the source of the majesty, at the five-colored sword light that seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth.
Beneath the sword light was Wei Yuan, dressed in ragged green robes.
"Duke Wei …."
The eyes of the Jinluo soldiers turned red, and their faces went pale.
This sword made it impossible for them to even think about fighting back, much less running away.
Up to this point in the battle, things had exceeded the expectations of these high-ranking military officials. Layer after layer, scene after scene, they were both frightened and at a loss.
Nalan Yan and the other shamans raised their heads and looked at the sword energy in the sky. Their hearts trembled.
"Kill him. Kill Wei Yuan …." Nalan Yan's eyes were bloodshot.
He could avenge his father's death today.
"Kill Wei Yuan!" A wizard shouted.
"Kill Wei Yuan …."
"Kill Wei Yuan …."
Shouts rose and fell, increasing in number. Those who still had energy to spare, or those who had already closed their eyes to avoid looking, responded one after another.
All the voices converged. "Kill Wei Yuan!"
Wei Yuan stood on the surface of the sea and looked up at the arrogant sword light. He looked at the arrogant Empress Zhen De.
In his mind, the scene of that kid riding a horse on the hillside and singing a song to send them off replayed.
It was as if his voice rang in his ears again.
"Smoke rises and the mountains look north. The dragon rises and the horse whinnied. The sword light is like frost!"
"My heart is like the Yellow River. Who can resist me for twenty years?"
"Who can resist me for twenty years?" Wei Yuan laughed. "Then I'm going to be invincible."
He took out a Confucian crown from his ragged green robes and slowly put it on.
The second most precious treasure of Yunlu Academy, the Second Sage Confucian Crown!
"Come!"
He gently waved his hand.
The Confucian Sages's carving knife came to life and washed away the filth. It turned into a stream of light and sent itself into Wei Yuan's hand.
He looked up and shouted, "Come!"
A ray of clear light shone down from the blue sky onto Wei Yuan's body.
This clear light came from Dean Zhao Shou, the blessing of a third-rank Confucian who had almost lost his life.
The Confucian crown and carving knife bloomed with dazzling Light.
Finally, a piece of paper was drawn from his sleeve. On the paper was a very common spell, a spell that wizards were familiar with!
The core ability of the ritual — Heroic Spirit Summon.
Seeing this, the three wizards' eyebrows twitched. They had an ominous premonition.
"Hiss!"
As the paper burned, Wei Yuan was in high spirits and shouted, "Invite — Confucian — Sage —"
In an instant, the world was filled with clear air!
