A giant python suddenly appeared and charged forward, causing the people from the various sects to be thrown off their feet. The sky suddenly darkened, and a giant wing covered the sky.
Before the people could react, the giant wing had already pressed down. In an instant, a gust of wind blew, causing sand and stones to fly and the sun and moon to dim. Those with lower cultivation were swept up by the gust, and even those with profound cultivation were caught off guard and trapped in the wind. Their ears and eyes were useless in the gust, and it was difficult for them to determine the direction.
Only the giant python was not affected because of its huge size. It shook its head and swung its tail in the black wind. Countless people were whipped away by the giant python in the darkness.
"It's Lu Tianlan and the Prison King Ming?" Many people had already guessed the identity of the newcomers, but they were all surprised. "Why are they helping Mu Zixuan?"
The unexpected help disrupted the killing in the field. In the midst of the chaos, there was a sudden "Silence!"
It was a soft word, but it clearly entered everyone's ears in the howling wind and wailing ghosts. It was as if the word was the law of nature, ringing in everyone's heart.
Then, the gust stopped, and the world fell silent.
The person who spoke was Wei Wushuang!
Everyone in the world knew that Wei Wushuang had the title of 'One Image, Ten Thousand Lives'. This was the meaning of 'Dao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things'. It meant that he could create tens of thousands of laws with just a thought. But very few people knew that he could also make all the techniques fall into silence. All the techniques in the world could return to silence with a single thought from him. It was just that there were too few people who had witnessed this technique. Therefore, it was not as famous as the One Elephant, Ten Thousand Lives, which had become his trademark. But it was still the most profound Dao technique.
One Image, One Image, Another Nirvana. This was Wei Wushuang's unique skill — "Life and Death Dao Law"!
Lu Tianlan was known as the "Swift Wind Bandit". Every time he robbed treasures, he would summon a gust of wind as a cover. But today, it was broken by Wei Wushuang with just one word.
However, although Wei Wushuang stopped the gust, his body shook again and he almost lost his balance. It was obvious that using "All Techniques Fall into Silence" was still too much for him.
But when he looked again, Mu Zixuan's figure was nowhere to be seen. He had taken advantage of the strong wind to escape from the battle and fled several dozen feet away.
Ji Fengming and the others would not allow him to escape. Just as they were about to chase after him, they saw that Lu Tianlan and the Prison Suppressing King Ming had already transformed from their Dharma forms back to their human forms and stood in front of them.
Lu Tianlan's hooked claws were sharp and fierce. Streams of energy interweaved. The Pale-suppressing King Of Ming's palm energy was winding and his energy was like a snake that changed strangely. The two demonic beasts were top experts to begin with, and at this moment, they even had a ruthless and murderous intent to take their enemy down with them. As they attacked at the same time, the demonic aura that filled the area instantly formed a natural chasm.
"It's an evil spirit that has entered his body!" Ji Fengming saw that the whites of Lu Tianlan's and the Pale-suppressing King Of Ming's eyes had disappeared and turned into a strange darkness like the netherworld. She immediately understood everything.
It was the group of ghosts that had just come out of the Celestial Master Cave. When they passed by the resting place of Lu Tianlan and the Pale-suppressing King Of Ming, they were driven by Mu Zixuan to take the opportunity to occupy the bodies of the two demonic beasts, invade their divine senses, and control them to attack the people of the Righteous Path.
The evil spirit entering the body was originally only effective on those with weak minds. Under normal circumstances, with the cultivation of the two demonic beasts, their minds were naturally invulnerable. However, less than twenty days after the end of the Battle of Heavenly Book, they had not yet recovered from the mental trauma caused by their deaths in the Heavenly Book World, and were actually taken advantage of by the group of ghosts.
There were many masters present, and it was not difficult to control Lu Tianlan and the Pale-suppressing King Of Ming, but it was also easy for the two demonic beasts to stop them for a while.
When the evil spirit of hell and the two demonic beasts blocked the retreat, the momentary obstruction was enough for Mu Zixuan to fly forward for another hundred feet. At this time, even if the people of the Righteous Path got rid of the group of ghosts and the two demonic beasts blocking the retreat, it was difficult to catch up with Mu Zixuan.
Only Luo Xiaoyi's bow and arrow were an exception!
With the sound of the bowstring, she indeed shot an arrow!
For an archer, vision was undoubtedly the most important. In order to deal with the extreme situation where both eyes were blocked, Luo Xiaoyi had her own set of supernatural power called "Mind's Eye". Just now, even in the strong wind, her eyes could not see, but her mind's eye had been locked on Mu Zixuan. At the same time, she activated the Noble Spirit of the Confucian Sect and secretly pulled the bow and arrow.
It was just that the strong wind was irregular and disrupted the trajectory of the bow and arrow, so she had been ready to shoot.
At the moment when the strong wind subsided, the momentum of the arrow was also accelerated to the extreme. Luo Xiaoyi loosened the bowstring, and in an instant, a sharp arrow shot out with the momentum of a meteor chasing the moon. It was the Three-light Holy Arrow — Moon Chasing!
Only this arrow, which was born to chase the moon, could catch up with the fleeing figure of Mu Zixuan.
Almost at the same time, on the Morning Sun Peak not far away, two figures stood side by side. One of them looked into the distance and also pulled the bowstring.
His back was straight and his spirit was high. His Qi Ji was full and ready to be released as the bowstring was fully drawn. However, he kept nagging to the black-robed Confucian beside him, "You made the Directorate of Heaven choose to give up on Mu Zixuan with just a Go manual. You forced Mu Zixuan into a helpless situation. How did you do it?"
"Well? Mu Zixuan actually had a backup plan and destroyed the seal of the Taoist Master Cave! "
"Lu Tianlan and Prison King Ming? Were they possessed by evil spirits? That was close. Fortunately, you took me to the Morning Sun Peak, or I would have been like them! "
Finally, the Confucian in black beside him became impatient and said, "Don't be so talkative. Be careful."
The archer smiled confidently and said, "I'm different from a fake young master like you who relied on cheating to pass the Six Arts Competition. I'm someone who has truly mastered the Six Arts. Today, I'll let you know that what Xu Tingxian allows you to listen to isn't just the zither!"
Then, the bowstring snapped, making a lingering sound like music.
- =
Run! Run! Run!
The Directorate of Heavens, the Hungry Ghost of Hell, the Seven Ferocious Pair Demons … Mu Zixuan had exhausted all of his trump cards in exchange for a split second of opportunity to escape. Without hesitation, he dragged his heavily injured body and flew away.
He was not afraid that his painstaking efforts were destroyed. He could start over again.
It did not matter if he had a bad reputation and was hated by others. He was tired of pretending to be kind.
As long as he could escape this disaster, everything was not over yet!
The unprecedented crisis stimulated his potential and made his speed reach an unprecedented level. Wherever he passed, the wind and clouds split, and the air trembled and made bursts of crackling sounds.
But he was fast, and the arrow was faster!
Behind him, Luo Xiaoyi's arrow cut a mark in the sky and chased after Mu Zixuan with an unstoppable momentum. Mu Zixuan sensed the sharp intent behind him and wanted to change his flight path to dodge, but the arrow behind him seemed to have a mind of its own as it chased after him relentlessly. The Moon Chasing Arrow was like this. The moment the arrow was released, it had already locked onto the target's Qi. Unless the arrow's power was exhausted, it would not stop until it caught up to the target!
Compared with the arrow behind him, the arrow in front of him surprised Mu Zixuan even more.
Yes, it was purely an accident!
There was more than one deadly arrow. It was not as powerful as the Moon-chasing Arrow, and no one knew who shot it. But when Mu Zixuan noticed it, it had already pointed at Mu Zixuan's heart.
It seemed that this arrow omitted the process of flying and only retained the antecedent of the "shooting" and the "hitting" result of the "shooting".
This was another archery skill of the Confucian School, which was as famous as the Triple Light Holy Arrow. The Confucian School's Divine Arrow was shot and it would hit the target. It was called "Penetrate!"
"I can't dodge it!"
The deadly arrow aroused Mu Zixuan's unprecedented vigilance. But when the vigilance arose, it was already too late to dodge it.
So Mu Zixuan did not dodge. He leaned forward and lowered his shoulder. His speed, which was already approaching the limit, increased by three times and took the initiative to hit the arrow!
Before the arrow shot into his heart, he hit the sudden arrow with the hardest shoulder bone in advance.
"Whoosh!" Even though Mu Zixuan had gathered Qi on his shoulder, it was still difficult for him to block the arrow. His shoulder was instantly pierced through!
When the arrow in front hit the target, the arrow from behind arrived. The Qi of the Moon-chasing Arrow had already enveloped Mu Zixuan's back.
But Mu Zixuan showed his amazing skill again. He took the initiative to hit the arrow on his shoulder, both to protect his vital parts and to take advantage of the opportunity. Although the arrow fiercely nailed into his shoulder, the force of the arrow helped his body to suddenly stop from flying, and then he took advantage of the momentum to spin in the air.
It should be known that the faster the speed, the more difficult it was to change direction. This kind of strange sudden stop and spin was absolutely impossible to achieve, but Mu Zixuan made it possible.
His back just barely spun over the Moon-chasing Arrow. The sharp force of the arrow cut open a bloody wound on his purple clothes, and a piece of flesh was ploughed off.
His clothes were in tatters, and his flesh was badly mangled. He dodged in an extremely sorry state, but he still dodged!
But Mu Zixuan wasn't satisfied with just dodging. The Moon-chasing Arrow, which could lock onto the Qi, missed, and immediately tried to change the direction of the arrow. But Mu Zixuan didn't give it the chance. As he spun, he received the force and changed it. He used the Crepe Myrtle's Seven Transformations — — "Constellation Shift". He moved the stars, and with a profound palm, he struck the Moon-chasing Arrow's tail.
"Whoosh!" Mu Zixuan borrowed the force and struck the arrow. This arrow was equivalent to superimposing his, Xu Tingxian's, and Luo Xiaoyi's forces. In a flash, the Moon-chasing Arrow flew forward at an even faster speed, and its target — —
"What a good Mu Zixuan!" Xu Tingxian saw the Moon-chasing Arrow shoot towards him and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. Mu Zixuan had actually used the angle and direction of the arrow to push him away from his position the instant he was hit by the arrow. Moreover, he immediately counterattacked, not giving him the chance to shoot a second arrow at Mu Zixuan, and then a third arrow …
The arrow arrived before he could finish his admiration. The sharp wind caused Xu Tingxian's green clothes to flutter, but Xu Tingxian stood upright. With a flip of his hand, he brandished his bow to block.
"Whoosh!"
The strong bow was snapped in half, and the arrow was struck off course. It shot into the mountain rock behind him, and even the shaft was buried in the rock.
Mu Zixuan, who had passed another obstacle, was no longer obstructed by anyone. He finally swept across the sky and disappeared from view.
Xu Tingxian threw the broken bow to the ground and continued to exclaim in admiration, "Experts from all walks of life, layers upon layers of ambushes, yet he still managed to escape. This person truly has the ability to bring disaster to the world!"
Beside him, Shen Yizhi, who was dressed in black scholarly robes, gazed in the direction Mu Zixuan had disappeared. His expression had never changed. Even when the arrow was about to hit him, at this moment, his distant gaze was even more profound. It was as if he could see Mu Zixuan's future fate. He faintly said, "It's still too early to talk about escaping now. There are three steps to encirclement. The first step is to remove his claws and teeth, and break his wings. His path of escape has only just begun, but the direction is already wrong!"
- =
A heavily injured figure flew from the east to the west. Even though he had already escaped the boundaries of Qingcheng, Mu Zixuan didn't dare to stop.
After this battle, the foundation of the Righteous Sky Alliance would be lost, and his reputation would be tarnished. He would be like a rat on the street that everyone wanted to beat up. Now, he could only meet up with the army of the Hungry Ghost Path that was stationed in Kunlun to have a moment of respite.
The main force of the Hungry Ghost Sect was stationed in the Nine Abyss beside the Kunlun Mountain Range, facing the Spring Autumn Sword Tower's camp.
The Hell Dao Master, You Ning, was formed by the fusion of Ning Youyou's remnant soul and a part of Mu Zixuan's soul. It was equivalent to the other half of Mu Zixuan's soul.
Since the moment Mu Zixuan was in danger, he immediately ordered You Ning to attack the Spring Autumn Sword Tower at all costs!
This was his original plan, which was to invite Yue Cang Qiong to the Qing City to attend the ceremony and kill him at the ceremony. Even if Yue Cang Qiong managed to escape, his Hell Realm would join forces with the Human Realm and Asura Realm to launch a surprise attack and defeat the Spring and Autumn Sword Tower.
Although the first half of the plan had failed, the second half could remain the same. With the Hell Dao as the vanguard, they would tear the Spring Autumn Sword Tower's defense line at all costs and bring him back to the Nine Abyss.
However, at this moment, Mu Zixuan, who had just escaped from Qingcheng, suddenly realized a problem. It was a problem that he shouldn't have neglected, but because he was focused on escaping, he neglected it.
Why didn't the Sword Emperor make a move just now?
If the Sword Emperor didn't make a move at the beginning, it was because he wanted to watch the tigers fight and let Mu Zixuan waste his time with the others and reap the benefits.
Then, why didn't Yue Cang Qiong make a move even when Mu Zixuan was about to escape?
Thinking of this, Mu Zixuan broke out in cold sweat. He immediately dived into his sea of consciousness and shouted with his mind.
"You Ning, retreat quickly!"
