Dou Zhao felt that this trip was worth it.
Jiang Wang, however, felt …
Very weak.
At this moment, he was extremely weak.
The injuries caused by the Five Decays of the Celestial Being were still worsening in his body.
Speaking of which, he had saved Zuo Guangshu and Yue Tiannu, protected the Orange Song Jade Annulus, and successfully escaped.
But in truth, it was just that Dou Zhao's thirst for battle was greater than the Nine Jade Annulus, so he did not attack Zuo Guangshu again. Otherwise, Jiang Wang would not have been able to stop him.
Dou Zhao was powerful in all aspects, with almost no weak points. Not only was his cultivation superior, his saber skills were superior, and even his combat talent was top-notch.
Even if he did his best, all he could do was flee. There was absolutely no chance of victory.
Only now did he have the time to treat his injuries.
At this moment, he sat cross-legged on the head of the mechanical Mahoraga, outside the golden light of the storm. It was like looking at the world through a window, a kind of haze.
This snake-headed Mahoraga carried the meditating Yue Tiannu in its left hand and the unconscious Zuo Guangshu in its right as it traveled through the storm.
All three were heavily injured, and no one could help the other.
The five enormous fingers on the Mahoraga's left hand were bent, like Yue Tiannu's divine throne.
She closed her eyes and focused, her face glowing with Zen light as she did her best to repair her soul.
Jiang Wang was rather curious about this outstanding disciple of the Cleansing Moon Nunnery. At the same time, he was somewhat embarrassed by the stench that constantly emanated from his body.
But when he saw Yue Tiannu's expressionless face, he finally understood.
With her puppet body, even if she had a sense of smell, it was only an auxiliary perception in battle. She would not really feel anything for smells or smells.
Why was a Tianjiao of the Cleansing Moon Nunnery like Yue Tiannu, someone who could form a relationship with the thousand-year-old Qu clan of Great Chu, a puppet body? What kind of story was behind this?
Jiang Wang discarded these random thoughts that suddenly flitted through his mind. His five hearts turned to the sky, and he similarly closed his eyes to treat his injuries.
Dirty clothes, withered hair, sweaty armpits, stinky body, and unhappy self — these were the Five Decays of the Celestial Being.
The Celestial Being's lifespan was nearing the end, thus the Five Decays.
Dou Zhao's saber strike did not directly hit Jiang Wang. Otherwise, he would not have lasted until now.
However, if the Five Decays were allowed to continue to worsen, they could only walk towards death step by step.
After all, the power of the Five Decay that had entered his body was just the aftermath of the great battle back then. If he didn't deal with it in time, it could still kill people. If he really calmed down and focused on resisting it, there were some ways.
For example, mobilizing Dao Energy, spreading it throughout his body, coming into contact with every strand of the Five Signs of Decay, splitting, wrapping, and reconciling them bit by bit … This was a slow process, but it was also a relatively safe process.
With Jiang Wang's fine control of Dao Energy, it was enough for him to do this.
However, he did not choose to do so.
Instead, he used the Red Heart's Immortal Light to protect his vitals. Then, he directly mobilized the True Samadhi Fire in his body to surround, block, and kill them all!
Rumble!
There were occasional claps of thunder in the wind and rain.
Turning one's body into a battlefield, burning and killing in every corner where the power of Five Decay wreaked havoc, this was of course a painful process.
Jiang Wang even vomited blood during the process.
The blood was black and smelled fishy.
The injuries in his body were not only related to the saber force of the Deva's Five Decay but also to the Samadhi True Fire. The substantial Abhijna Fire was moving in his body. No matter how well he controlled it, he could not avoid being injured.
Using methods to worsen his injuries to prevent them from worsening was like using strong medicine for a serious illness. If he was not careful, he would die.
Fortunately, he had just erected the second Star Tower and his body had been strengthened again. Otherwise, he would not be able to withstand it now.
However, other than his slightly furrowed brows, there was no expression on his face.
He was already used to enduring pain.
"Why don't you wait for a while? Wait until I'm better. I have a way to heal your injuries," Yue Tiannu suddenly said.
While she was meditating, she also caught sight of the intense battle in Jiang Wang's body.
That kind of pain, she could understand.
Jiang Wang opened his eyes and looked at her. He was slightly surprised, but he still shook his head. "It's too late."
Continue to burn, continue to suffer, continue to vomit blood.
Such a choice, such a tolerance.
Too late?
Yue Tiannu seemed to have understood something from this sentence. She did not say anything, but also chose some relatively radical methods to heal herself silently.
Jiang Wang observed his surroundings. While maintaining his vigilance, he also diverted some of the pain.
At this time, the True Samadhi Fire in his body had already surrounded all the Five Decrees and was burning them away. There was no need for him to focus all his attention.
Yue Tiannu had chosen a very clever time to speak.
Jiang Wang felt that for some reason, she had not been able to exert her strength to the fullest. Otherwise, she should have been able to cause Dou Zhao a little more trouble.
His body was truly in pain. He instinctively thought of all sorts of ways to relieve it.
"It truly is too late," a voice said in the wind and rain.
It pierced through the curtain of rain and resounded in his ears.
The Mechanical Mahoraga froze.
Its massive body, shrouded in golden light, stood upright under the gloomy sky, exuding a cold and hard aura.
Jiang Wang and Yue Tiannu both sat cross-legged. They were both clear-headed people and knew what was most important at a time like this. The more strength they could recover, the more likely they would have.
As for the appearance of the newcomer, they would eventually see it.
The curtain of rain was like a curtain of beads.
Two people 'rolled up the curtain' and walked through the air.
They walked right in front of the Mechanical Mahoraga. Of course, they were also in the field of vision of Jiang Wang, who was sitting cross-legged on the snake's head.
One of them was not very good-looking. He wore a robe and a crown of virtue on his head. A black butterfly rested on his left shoulder.
The other was also wearing a crown of virtue, but it was a crown cast from iron. He wore armor, and his eyes, one big and one small, were inexplicably coordinated and could even be called good-looking.
The newcomer naturally did not come with good intentions.
The one who spoke was the one wearing the robe.
Jiang Wang had already seen him on the River-Viewing Platform and recognized him as Gechun from Tianjiao of the State of Yue. Then the one with the big and small eyes wearing armor next to him was definitely Wu Ling.
In order to avoid the other's vigilance, he stopped vomiting blood. "A friend has come from afar. This Jiang is too injured to welcome you. Please excuse me."
Wu Ling's personality was probably more direct. He ignored Jiang Wang's greetings and only looked at him, his gaze full of interest. "How did you guess?"
Since the other was willing to chat, Jiang Wang was also happy to say a few more words.
"The Mountain Sea Realm is so big. I originally thought that it would be very difficult for me to find Guangshu and the others," he said. "But I keep having this indescribable feeling that he's in this direction, waiting for me to find him … Haha, he's actually here. Don't you think it's a coincidence? "
Gechun smiled slightly. "Sometimes inspiration comes suddenly like this. What, is this also worthy of suspicion?"
He continued to walk forward. "It seems that you're a suspicious person."
Jiang Wang thought that perhaps this so-called inspiration was Gechun's method, which was why he said this.
"Perhaps it's not worthy of suspicion." He smiled weakly. "I'm just maintaining vigilance in a damned place like the Mountain Sea Realm."
What he didn't say was that when this inspiration appeared, it was resisted by the Red Heart Divine Ability and had no effect on him at all. He just purposely followed this inspiration, wanting to see who was behind it.
When he arrived and saw the scene of Zuo Guangshu falling into the sea, he naturally couldn't restrain himself and directly pulled out his sword to join the battle.
At first, he thought that this sudden inspiration might be Dou Zhao's method. Someone as prideful as Dou Zhao might have scattered bait to lure all his competitors over to kill them.
But after successfully escaping, he overturned this guess.
Because when he escaped, he didn't encounter Dou Zhao's backup plan.
This meant that the place where the battle took place was not the battlefield that Dou Zhao had planned.
Jiang Wang asked himself, if he had lured people over to kill them, he would have more or less set up something nearby.
Since this sudden inspiration wasn't Dou Zhao's method. Then where was the person who had truly set up the trap and led them to fight?
As the oriole, of course, he would only appear after the battle.
He could only be blocking their way out.
But this distance couldn't be too close, because this person definitely didn't want to be discovered by him or Dou Zhao in advance.
In Jiang Wang's judgment, it should be a place like this … …
He had already instructed Yue Tiannu to make the mechanical Khoroga fly as swiftly as possible, but frankly speaking, it was normal for it to be stopped.
The person who had set this trap couldn't possibly not be able to stop a puppet.
Why did he choose such a violent method, directly using the Samadhi True Fire to burn away the Five Decrees in his body?
He was fighting for time.
He was using pain to fight for an opportunity.
At this moment, Wu Ling said, "Maintaining vigilance is a good habit. I hope you know that it's also the same for assessing the situation. "
As Jin Xian and Guan Ge spoke, they approached. They were probably using some method to eliminate any possible arrangements within their range.
Facing this person who could directly clash with Dou Zhao and then escape, they did not conceal their vigilance.
"Of course." Jiang Wang somewhat painfully furrowed his brows. It seemed like he was completely unable to suppress his injuries, but it also seemed like he was doing it on purpose, a kind of disguise to appear weak.
In short, he was deliberately mystifying, making it difficult for others to judge.
Then, with a frank expression and a smile, he said, "If the two of you have any thoughts, feel free to speak. If there's anything I can do to help, I will be happy to do so. To the Mountain Sea Realm, we are all passersby. We should help each other. "
"Brother Jiang is truly a strange man with a very good understanding." Ge Xu laughed. "Then we'll be shameless and speak frankly. Please give me your jade discs, and I will guarantee that you will safely leave the Mountain Sea Realm without harming your origin. As you said, we are all passersby of the Mountain Sea Realm. There is no need to form grudges. "
"Brothers, why didn't you say so earlier?" Jiang Wang's face was bitter. "Look at us. We are dead, injured, and escaped. How can we keep the jade discs in Dou Zhao's hands? "
"They were all taken by that guy!" He was both angry and sad. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something. His eyes lit up, and he shouted, "Dou Zhao has a total of three Nine-Chapter Jade Discs, but he is already heavily injured! Brothers, how can we miss this opportunity? You must know that if we don't take what the heavens give us, we will be punished! "
Yue Tiannu blinked. She looked at Jiang Wang's face and suddenly realized that this was indeed a very three-dimensional and difficult to describe person.
Before she had seen this person, she had only heard of his name and knew that he was a famous genius in the modern world.
When she first saw this person, she felt that he had probably just experienced something. There was a kind of clarity, and he appeared very relaxed beside Zuo Guangshu.
Later, when they encountered Dou Zhao's army, she saw his decisiveness and responsibility.
Today, he appeared like a heavenly soldier, and she was pleasantly surprised.
Facing Dou Zhao alone was enough to see his bravery, and successfully escaping showed his wisdom.
Now, he was lying without changing his expression, and did not hide his elegance, which made him a bit more adorable.
She suddenly remembered True Jade's evaluation.
True Jade said that this person was naive and hateful …
Hateful indeed, she thought.
Ge Feng looked at Jiang Wang's emotional performance, thought for a moment, and then looked at Wu Ling. "What he said seems to make sense."
In order to avoid being detected, of course, they could not directly monitor the battlefield. They only set up a few observation points at a distance to stop the escapees at any time.
They only knew that Jiang Wang had successfully escaped with his people, but they did not know the specific situation of the battle.
Jiang Wang was very anxious. "I will show you the way! Brothers, you must be careful of Dou Zhao's Five Decay of Heaven and Man. It is really dangerous! "
Ge Feng looked at him doubtfully. "Aren't you a bit too enthusiastic?"
Jiang Wang said hatefully, "Ever since I made my debut, I have never suffered such a big loss. I hate this person to the bone. I must kill him quickly and cut off his soul origin! "
He even said, "If you don't mind, I can kill this person with you!"
Wu Ling did not say anything. He just silently took out his Nine Jade Walls and inserted his Dao Energy. This Jade Wall instantly shone with brilliance, and a poem called "Drawing Thoughts" was reflected in the air, the words floating.
The right palm of the Mechanical Mahoraga was still on the unconscious Zuo Guangshu. Although the Jade Wall could not be seen, a beam of brilliance leaped out, reflecting a poem called "Ode to Orange". It could be seen clearly in the air, floating with the air of literature.
The two Jade Walls resonated with each other in the air, extremely beautiful.
Jiang Wang, "…"
Yue Tiannu, "…"
Ge Feng, "…"
Wu Ling, "…"
In the dark curtain of rain, there was a moment of awkwardness.
At this time, Yue Tiannu stood up.
The damage to her soul was not so easy to recover from. Even if she took precious secret medicines, she would still need some time to recover. The power of her Pure Land was even more difficult to recover. At the very least, before her soul recovered, she could not use it again.
Thus, she did not have enough strength right now.
But she understood that there was no time to recover.
She was already prepared to fight to the death.
But Jiang Wang still sat cross-legged. He clearly felt that there was still a need to negotiate.
He sincerely looked at Ge Feng and Wu Ling. "This is a misunderstanding."
"Hahaha, I also didn't think that this Jade Wall would still be on Guangshu. I thought that Dou Zhao fellow had stolen it! "
Ge Feng and Wu Ling only coldly looked at him, silently approaching.
Jiang Wang seemed to have been possessed by Xu Xiangqian. He urgently said, "Brother Ge! Brother Wu! We're all people of repute. We really shouldn't be so distant. I see that you're also the sons and daughters of heroes, gentlemen, well-read people. I presume that you don't want to take advantage of others. How about this? Wait a day for me. Once I recover, I'll immediately fight with you. Let's have a gentleman's fight. We'll use strength to decide who these two Jade Walls belong to! "
"Don't you only have one?" Ge Feng couldn't help but ask.
"He also counted ours," Wu Ling said coldly.
Even though Ge Feng always had the mentality of watching a play, he couldn't hold it in anymore.
He immediately raised his hand. Densely packed little grey insects gushed out. Like a flood, they charged straight at Jiang Wang!
Wu Ling pushed his Virtuous Crown, grasped the Scholarly Weasel Brush, and spread out the Scholarly Scroll.
Splendid Light Cave's heavy clouds tore apart the curtain of rain.
Ten thousand li of rivers and mountains were all under the brush!
