The moon was dark and the wind was cold above the tall city gate tower.
The heavy clouds seemed like they were about to collapse.
A tall, masked figure suddenly appeared behind Zhu Weiwo. A hoarse voice sounded from under the mask, "You want to go to the Yong battlefield?"
The Grand Minister of the Zhuang Country's Arrest Department had to wear a cast iron mask all year round, never showing his true face to others to show his impartiality.
Zhu Weiwo didn't turn around. He continued to look at the Mo Kingdom hidden in the night across from the city.
"I don't see the point in me staying here."
"His Majesty is taking an unprecedented gamble." The Grand Minister stood with his hands behind his back, similarly looking into the distance. "We not only have to consider victory, but also failure. This is the point of you staying here. "
Zhu Weiwo shook his head. "The reason the Burning Torch shines is definitely not because it doesn't dare to burn."
He was the Grand Minister of the Arrest Department, one of the top five most powerful figures in the Zhuang Country. If a National Academy disciple dared to question his words, he wouldn't have believed it in the past. But if this National Academy disciple was Zhu Weiwo, it was only natural.
He was an extremely arrogant and flamboyant genius.
"You are already bright enough, sharp enough."
The Grand Minister said meaningfully, "Zhu Weiwo, Prime Minister Du believes that you can shoulder the future of the Zhuang Country. I also believe so. But before that … "
"You need to learn Blade Concealment."
Zhu Weiwo pursed his lips and didn't speak.
And in the distant night sky, a figure was flying rapidly towards Zhuang Country.
… …
… …
The wind that blew past Zhuang Country might have also blown past Xin 'an.
On the cold and lonely streets of Xin 'an, the battle was still ongoing.
The branches brandishing their claws and fangs were like scenes from the past.
That day in the Zhuang Country's Dao Academy, Jiang Wang was attacked by the White Bone Path. Dong A stood up for his disciple and directly used this unique Daoist technique, leaving the two demons with nowhere to hide. He killed one on the spot and forced the other to die.
The Jasper Cage could be said to have awakened Jiang Wang's yearning for the Wood Path. It was also an unforgettable scene for Jiang Wang on his journey.
The Daoist technique was still the same Daoist technique, and the person was still the same person.
But Jiang Wang had already turned from a bystander to a combatant.
He had once been protected by this dao technique. Now, he was sealed by this dao technique.
Life was like a giant joke.
Time shifted, and so did the realms.
The Jasper Cage covered the long street, and the Ruler of Two Boundaries blocked the bright moon.
Jiang Wang's sword couldn't advance an inch in front of the iron ruler. The Jasper Cage repelled all other elemental energy, and the sea of flame flowers was extinguished as soon as it spread out.
As for the competition for wood elemental energy, he was far inferior to Dong Ah.
Dong A was the most adept at controlling fine essence energy.
Back then, Jiang Wang's cultivation was slow and he was stuck in the process of laying his foundation. It was Dong A who taught him the Energy Control Formula. As a result, he was able to complete the foundation-laying process faster and not be stuck in front of the Heavenly Cycle Star Formation for too long.
But at this moment, Jiang Wang only felt anger.
All of his emotions, all of his hatred, were contained in this sword of longing. Dong Ah clearly knew why he had come, but she actually dared to interrogate him … about whether it was correct!
Could it be that becoming the Vice Prime Minister of the Zhuang Country represented the correct path? Could it be that holding the Dual Boundary Ruler that punishes evils and sins is equivalent to justice itself?
Jiang Wang hated Dong Ah for being an accomplice and for ignoring the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people in Maplewood City. And he was angry because … Dong Ah didn't seem to take this matter to heart at all. It was as if she didn't think that she was wrong at all!
His Dao essence burned wildly.
His right hand held the Sauvignon Longing. His left hand pressed back with extreme determination, and a ball of grayish-white decaying light appeared.
It was the Inner Mansion Realm's Rotten Wood Formula!
The reason why he had sneaked into Wangjiang City and forcefully obtained the Rotten Wood Formula from Wangjiang City's Dao Academy was to deal with Dong Ah in the future. But because of the sudden change in the situation, this battle had been brought forward to tonight.
Even if he had to give up two Dao techniques in exchange, he couldn't deny the fact that he had taken it by force. That was why he felt ashamed when facing Fu Baosong.
That wasn't something he would do.
It was only because his hatred for Dong A had suppressed his personal morals.
He wanted to kill Dong Ah so badly that he was going crazy!
The Rotten Wood Formula was undoubtedly the nemesis of wood elemental techniques. It was one of the gifts that he had specially prepared for Dong Ah. It would also be ignited at Dong Ah's funeral tonight.
The grayish-white ball of light exploded in the air. Like a swallow returning to the forest, it pounced on the rapidly approaching jade cage and entangled it deeply.
As a result, the branches and leaves rotted, and the trees rotted. The air emitted a nauseating rotten smell.
The grayish-white decaying light quickly expelled the vibrant jade color.
The jade cage that covered the long street had already decayed, withered, and collapsed in a breath's time. It was as if it had never appeared.
The Rotten Wood Formula instantly cleared Dong Ah's control over the wood elemental energy in this area.
Jiang Wang took advantage of the void and completed his "invasion" of the wood elemental energy.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Thorn Crown on his head flashed and disappeared. His left hand flipped back. A new Dao technique had been formed.
Five Qi Binding Tiger!
The power of the Dao technique, with the support of the Thorn Crown, began to stir the five qi in Dong Ah's body.
However, through the power of the Dao technique, he could clearly feel that Dong Ah's body was like a towering tree. It was firmly rooted in the ground and the five qi in her body couldn't be shaken at all.
Jiang Wang's Five Qi Binding Tiger was like falling into a quagmire. It couldn't even bind Dong Ah for a breath.
On the other hand, Dong Ah slapped back!
A ferocious green python roared out and collided with the pitch-black chains that drilled out of the void, sending them flying. The chains nimbly flipped and bound the green python. They directly wrapped around the green python and collapsed into Dao elemental energy.
However, another green python rushed forward and knocked it away again.
This repeated for a total of nine times. Jiang Wang's chains were knocked out of his detection range and disappeared.
Dong Ah flipped the Double-World Ruler and took three steps back. Each step covered a distance of three feet.
With every step he took back, a jade-like tree rose from the ground in front of him.
After taking three steps back, three trees rose in succession.
These three jade-like trees formed a tripartite formation. As soon as they appeared, they had already suppressed their elemental energy, sealed their aura, and faintly emitted a jade-like glow.
A strong sense of danger exploded in his heart.
Dong Ah's control over the wood elemental energy had almost reached perfection. In terms of attainments in the wood elemental energy alone, he had already surpassed any cultivator of the same level that Jiang Wang had seen so far.
Jiang Wang had once studied under him and received his guidance. He knew that he was strong, but he did not know that he was so tyrannical!
The reason why Dong Ah could become the Vice Minister of Zhuang Country and be regarded as Du Ruhui's successor was definitely not just because he participated in the sacrifice of Maplewood City.
However, Jiang Wang had already made the greatest guess about Dong Ah's strength. He never dared to be careless with Dong Ah.
The Rotten Wood Technique that he had deduced to the Inner Mansion level was one of his meticulous preparations.
Jiang Wang leaned forward with his sword. He held the Rotten Wood Technique in his hand and struck three times in a row.
He had already passed by the jade-like trees, and the decaying power of the Rotten Wood Technique had already penetrated the three jade-like trees.
This Dao technique was actually Dong Ah's trump card that he had never revealed in front of others. It was called the Three-Life Jade Tree. It was used to suppress dissatisfaction and erase emotions.
Its performance was indeed better than the Jade Cage. It was not completely occupied by the grayish-white color.
However, it was also fixed on the spot and its power was stopped.
Jiang Wang once again wielded his sword in front of Dong Ah and faced him head-on.
Behind him …
Crack! Crack!
The jade-like trees shattered like colored glass and fell to the ground with flowing light.
…
…
