"Assassin Alliance? Yan Shiliu? What a young man. The scarlet waters rose rapidly, and whirlpools appeared one after another. Your boat is actually like an arrow, braving the wind and breaking the waves. The force in your body is even more concealed. Your Taiyi Light Splitting Technique has already been cultivated to the point of perfection. Martial Grandmaster cultivation base... You should have some fame in the Assassin Province. "
In the lonely heart of the river, the surging scarlet waters roared.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Whirlpools appeared one after another in the middle of the river, devouring countless water plants and huge driftwood from upstream. Such a scene made one feel as though there were countless water monsters and demons lurking in the depths of the river!
The shore was already very far away. At a glance, the scenery at the shore was like an ant.
The scarlet waters were extremely wide, not to mention that the river water was currently rising rapidly.
Waves that could topple mountains and overturn seas came crashing down, giving one a soul-stirring feeling as though they were facing an army of thousands.
One wave after another slammed onto the body of the boat. The wooden body of the boat creaked, looking as though it would fall apart at any moment.
The small boat looked like it would fall apart at any moment in the berserk and turbid river. However, the person controlling the boat remained calm and steady, looking like he was taking a leisurely stroll in the park. He displayed the demeanor of a grandmaster.
As for Hong Yi, he naturally had an even more imposing demeanor. His sword hung by his waist, and his clothes fluttered in the wind. He stood at the bow of the boat, braving the wind and breaking the waves. Facing the surging waves, he didn't have the slightest bit of fear. Instead, he felt as though the waves were increasing his momentum.
Sssss!
When this young man called Yan Shiliu heard Hong Yi's words, he suddenly shook the oar in his hand. The entire boat immediately spun in the middle of the river, and finally came to a stop in the middle, not moving at all.
The oar tore through the river water, emitting a sound like a sword piercing through the air.
With this force, the huge muscles on his coarse clothes bulged out, as though there was a python hidden in his clothes. However, after exerting force, the muscles immediately caved in, and his entire body became loose.
His martial path only seemed to suddenly erupt with a powerful force before completely concealing itself.
This kind of martial arts was especially terrifying.
"Zhuangyuan Lord, you are indeed well-read. You actually know about the Taiyi Split-Light Piercing Technique. You even saw through Shiliu Wang's cultivation at a glance. It seems that the rumor that Zhuangyuan Lord also became the Martial Zhuangyuan and broke the Great Ji Divine Saber is true? However, Shiliu isn't considered an expert in Swallow City. He's just a pawn sent by the Assassin Dao Union to welcome the Zhuangyuan. "
Yan Shisilang smiled, revealing a row of white teeth, "But us small characters also want to see the martial arts style of Zhuangyuan Lord. Zhuangyuan Lord, be careful!"
Before he could finish his sentence, a few pieces of driftwood that had just floated past the raging waves of the Crimson Water suddenly stopped! As soon as the driftwood sank, seven or eight black shadows leapt up, borrowing the strength of the driftwood to suddenly leap and stab towards the ship!
The sword light burst out, straight as a pencil, with a deep chill! The killing intent condensed into a line, as dense as ice, pierced straight towards Hong Yi!
Goshawk Strikes the Rabbit! White Rainbow Pierces the Sun!
Seven to eight sword lights. Seven to eight assassins were actually hiding in the driftwood of the giant wave. They suddenly shot out and killed with their swords. There was no warning at all. Furthermore, they did not hold back at all in this ambush. Even Hong Yi felt a sense of desperation, as though there was no turning back.
These sword lights contained a great courage to sacrifice oneself to kill the enemy!
This kind of courage was condensed in the martial way, and even dao techniques had to give way!
… …
Clang!
Facing these lightning-fast sword lights, Hong Yi suddenly unsheathed his sword! In a breath's time, seven or eight swords stabbed out at the same time, hitting the sword lights one by one.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The eight sounds of weapons shattering rang out one after another.
The eight longswords that had come to attack were directly broken by Hong Yi's sword. At the same time, the eight figures lost their balance from the force of Hong Yi's sword and fell into the roiling red waters.
But the strange thing was, from start to end, these eight people did not make a sound. They did not even make a sound, much less scream. Once they fell into the water, they seemed to be dead. There was not even a bubble when they fell into the water.
"This is what an assassin should be!"
Hong Yi nodded slightly as he sheathed his sword after the attack.
Just at this moment, a huge bubble suddenly burst in the water at the bow of the ship. A human figure rose up like a flood dragon. There was a sword light in his hand that emitted an intense and dazzling light as it pierced towards Hong Yi's throat!
This figure had a majestic and fierce aura, like an evil dragon that had stirred up a flood in the middle of the river. At this moment, Hong Yi felt as if the evil dragon that had been lurking in the water had surfaced, stretched out its sharp claws and spat out its Dragon Ball.
What was more terrifying was that Hong Yi's eyes and ears did not seem to have sensed the person lurking under the water. It was just that he felt as if his soul was covered in dust.
Such a concealment method, a martial art that was integrated into the flood of heaven and earth, was truly earth-shattering.
Such an expert was at least Wu Sheng.
In an instant, Hong Yi sensed danger. The other party was staking everything on a single strike, disregarding his own safety. Just how powerful was the explosive strike of a Martial Sage without any regard for his own safety? Even a ghost immortal would be finished in an instant.
…
In this hurry, Hong Yi did not even have time to think. He unsheathed his sword again and used the Heaven and Earth Furnace to strangle the opponent.
Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang …
In an instant, the swords clashed and stabbed each other. In two to three breaths, they had clashed thousands of times. Sparks flew like molten steel.
The person who had just ambushed him stood at an advantageous position at the bow of the boat. The aura of his swordsmanship did not stop. In the midst of the violent attacks, the light seemed to have stopped. It moved very slowly, but it seemed to be moving very quickly.
As the sword light danced, the light was pulled into threads!
This level of swordsmanship was simply shocking. Even Hong Yi was far from having such exquisite swordsmanship.
However, with his Human Celestial body, his strength was extraordinary, his senses were extremely strong, and the sword in his hand was sharp. In a single strike, thousands of collisions occurred, causing the other party's sword to stagnate for a moment, and then twist!
Bang!
The other party's sword broke into pieces of steel, but the hilt was still in his hand, not moving at all.
Shh …
Hong Yi sheathed his sword and looked at the dripping wet person standing at the bow of the boat.
This person was of average height, but his muscles were still loose and loose. His aura was not in the slightest bit messy, as if he had just taken a leisurely swim.
"Assassin Dao Union, Elder Yan Kai, greets the Zhuangyuan." This person was a middle-aged man. His face was very ordinary, like a farmer. When he spoke, he paused between two to three words, giving off a dull and simple feeling.
After his exchange with Hong Yi, his eyes only flashed with a strange light when he faced Hong Yi's immense strength. He did not ask anything, nor did he discuss martial arts. It was as if his emotions were all buried deep in his heart.
If it was any other expert, they would have been shocked by Hong Yi's strength. Even someone as strong as the Champion Marquis would be shocked.
However, this Assassin Dao Union elder, although his martial arts were not as good as the Champion Marquis, he was not shocked. It was as if there was no such thing as shock in his soul.
"Is this the power of an assassin? As expected, the martial path is Wu Sheng. Although he is not as good as the Enduring Monk, he can definitely kill the Enduring Monk and the Intermediate Wu Sheng like the Yin Lotus! "
Hong Yi looked at this elder, Yan Kai, and could not help but praise him in his heart.
He knew that this group of people was just testing him, and they did not really have the intention to kill.
However, even if it was just a test, it was shocking enough. Hong Yi, as the Zhuangyuan of the imperial court, dared to try and assassinate like this. It was really audacious.
However, thinking about it, these people had inherited the ancient way of assassins and the sword will of courage. There was nothing they would not dare to do.
"The Zhuangyuan is worthy of respect! Shiliu, set sail. "
Yan Kai was a man of few words, and he would never be surprised. After exchanging blows with Hong Yi, he put away the sword hilt, picked up the broken sword, and tore off his clothes to wrap it up.
At the same time, the eight people who had been shaken to the bottom of the water popped their heads out and climbed onto the boat silently. They were eight boys and girls.
...
Hong Yi did not speak. To a group of assassins, he really had nothing to say. They were not good with words. However, Hong Yi knew that he had won their respect with his martial skills.
Now, they were going to bring him as a guest.
The boat quickly crossed the Crimson River, and the group of people got off the boat. Immediately, there seemed to be people waiting on the shore. Dozens of servants came up, and there were more than ten palanquins on the shore.
Normally, only High Scholars and officials could sit on palanquins, but this group of assassins did not care at all. At the same time, it also showed how strong the Crimson Province Piercing Dao Alliance was. Even the officials had to close one eye.
Hong Yi also sat on the palanquin, and it sped along the way.
The palanquin was very stable. The people who carried it were all warriors, and their movements were very steady. Even the tea in the palanquin did not spill out.
Hong Yi did not look at the road outside the palanquin, nor did he spare any attention to observe. He sat in the palanquin and closed his eyes to rest. After about an hour, the palanquin tilted upwards, as if it was going up a slope.
After that, the palanquin stopped.
...
When Hong Yi walked out of the palanquin, he saw a huge mountain city appear in front of his eyes.
This was the Piercing Dao Alliance, a mountain city built by hundreds of swordsmithing clans. It was also a large sect, and compared to the Daluo of Nanzhou, it had a much longer history. It could be traced back to the Middle Ages, and its history was almost the same as the Daizen Temple's.
However, this sect was not a holy land.
However, this Piercing Dao Alliance was not destroyed like the Daizen Temple. Instead, 60 years ago, because of a promise, they helped the Da Qian regime assassinate many governors of the Great Zhou Dynasty. These years, they even reached an agreement with the Mighty God King to help the Mighty God Army resist the invasion of the Western Regions Huo Luo and the Essence Holy Temple, and assassinate the leaders of the Essence Holy Temple and the Chara. Their methods were mysterious and unparalleled.
However, the Mighty God King could not command the Piercing Dao Alliance. Every New Year, he had to order his troops to bring large amounts of gifts to the mountain city.
The Champion Marquis had always wanted the Piercing Dao Alliance to submit to him, but he had never succeeded.
In short, the Piercing Dao Alliance was in a delicate balance.
Right now, Hong Yi was an extremely important figure, and his name was slowly rising in the literary world. It was even rumored that he was the pinnacle Wu Sheng. When he came to Chizhou, the entire Piercing Dao Alliance could not be underestimated.
"Lord Zhuangyuan, we have arrived at the mountain city. Originally, to enter the mountain city, even a Duke would have to unsheathe his sword. However, in order to win our respect, you do not need to do so. Our Piercing Dao Alliance's five elders and three Grand Elders are in the Hall of Assassins. We have prepared some meager wine for you, Lord Zhuangyuan. "
This elder, Yan Kai, exuded a certain authority with just a few words. Originally, when they saw Hong Yi coming out of the palanquin with his sword, a few warriors and disciples came up to speak. However, with a wave of Yan Kai's hand, they all retreated.
Yan Kai was an elder, and also a Wu Sheng. He was fully deserving of such great authority. A Wu Sheng, even if he was not a pinnacle Wu Sheng like the Champion Marquis, even if he was a beginner Wu Sheng, he would still have great authority wherever he went. This was unquestionable.
However, Hong Yi's reputation as Lord Zhuangyuan was not small. A Zhuangyuan, the leader of the literary world, was like a star of literature descending from the heavens. In the hearts of people, he was not to be underestimated.
Without scholars, who would write biographies of assassins?
Without scholars, who would write biographies of daoists?
"Inviting me to a banquet? I also had the intention of inviting you all, but since you all have gone ahead of me, I will go to the banquet. "Hong Yi smiled confidently and let Yan Kai lead the way into the mountain city.
...
Inside the mountain city, there were castles made of stone everywhere, clean and long. The disciples in the mountain city carried swords everywhere, and each of them was incomparably capable and had sharp eyes. After walking for an hour, Hong Yi found twenty to thirty Xiantian experts and seven to eight Grandmasters. This was not counting the nine people behind him, including Yan Shiliu.
"This is a powerful aristocratic family. No wonder the imperial court is so afraid of them. The world is in chaos, and these powerful aristocratic families are ready to take action, picking the peaches..."
Hong Yi thought.
Suddenly, after walking for more than ten miles in the mountain city, it seemed to have come to an end. Several incomparably spacious stone halls that looked like imperial palaces appeared in front of him.
Hong Yi saw a scholarly and very handsome young man, wearing a four-clawed dragon robe and a golden crown, standing in front of the central hall. There were many people sitting in the hall.
This young man was the Mighty God King, Yang Tuo.
