In the 170th year of Yong'an in the Great Wei Dynasty, a secret of the princely manor shocked both the imperial court and the immortal sects.
The only son of the Prince of Zhenbei, infamo...
Chapter 238: Grandmaster vs. Imperial Master (Two in One)
The members of the Demon Cult were not completely unfamiliar with this mysterious woman in a green gauze dress.
Although when the Confucians wanted to use the Wenwu Tower formation to trap and kill Gu Fangchen, only Lu Mingyuan survived after facing this mysterious woman.
But now that Confucianism and the Demonic Cult have reached an agreement, naturally these Taoist leaders also know that such a strange thing happened at that time.
However, even knowing this is of no use.
The identity of the woman in green skirt remains a mystery. Before she suddenly appeared that day, it seemed that there was no trace of her existence in the world. Only the sword intent that cut off Lu Mingyuan's arm seemed to have some connection with Jian Ge.
However, if you count the women with such cultivation in the history of Jiange, there is not a single one who matches the record.
And her target seemed to be the quasi-grade sword refined by the earth veins.
Just ask everyone in the world, who would not covet this sword?
As a result, the identity of the woman in green skirt remains a mystery, leaving people confused.
However, this woman in green skirt came and went without a trace, and her cultivation seemed to have reached a mysterious realm, far more than just half a step to the first level. It was as if she had already stepped into the first level. Even Xie Qian could not figure out her origins and whereabouts.
At this level, it is naturally not something that second-grade people like them can worry about.
The difference between a third rank and a second rank is almost the same as that between a second rank and a first rank. Basically, they are at the mercy of others and have no power to resist.
Even if the Confucian Demon Cult knew that there was such an uncertain factor, they could only pretend that it did not exist and continue with their plan.
Moreover, judging from the situation that day, she came for the precious sword. Now the sword is naturally still on Gu Fangchen. If she wants to attack, she will attack Gu Fangchen.
According to the tragic situation of the Confucian leaders at that time, she would kill anyone who took the sword.
Theoretically, the right thing to do is to kill Gu Fangchen.
In this way, they don't need to care about the woman in green skirt anymore, because everyone has the same goal anyway.
An Qisheng naturally thought so too. He first confirmed the other party's purpose and felt relieved when he learned that she was still here for the sword.
The sword was still on Gu Fangchen, and he never used it. He must have been using it as a trump card.
Now, the woman in green skirt has caught up with him, and his trump card has been wasted before he can even use it!
This is great news for them!
An Qisheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, his face became serious, and he clasped his hands and said righteously:
"We have no intention of taking this sword. Please take it away!"
He stretched out his hand and even made a "please" gesture. The other members of the Demon Cult also stepped back a distance to make it easier for the woman in green skirt to take action.
Anyway, taking away the precious sword will only weaken Gu Fangchen's strength. If he resists, he will naturally be regarded as a thief by this mysterious woman. Referring to the fate of the Confucian leaders that day, he will also be dead.
They are naturally happy to hear it.
However, the mysterious woman in green skirt did not immediately turn to attack Gu Fangchen as An Qisheng had expected.
Hearing this, the woman in the green skirt turned to look at An Qisheng and said coldly:
"You're lying."
As soon as these words came out, An Qisheng felt his scalp tingling, and he immediately explained:
"Have you misunderstood something? Our goal is simply to kill this man, not to seize his sword!"
He said this, but beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Of course, he couldn't say that he had no thoughts at all about this precious sword... Everyone in the world has thoughts, and of course he would too.
Just now, a greedy thought flashed through his mind.
They thought that Gu Fangchen must have another trump card. If both sides suffered losses, they would of course be able to take advantage of the precious sword.
I didn't expect that I would be sensed by the woman in green skirt.
He immediately blocked his mind, eliminated all distracting thoughts, and cleared his mind of all other ideas.
"Empress Joy" also quickly echoed:
"Indeed! We have no idea whatsoever about your sword. The real sword-stealer is Gu Fangchen~"
She also emphasized that it was Gu Fangchen who did it and it had nothing to do with them.
The woman in the green skirt paused, and just then Anqisheng and "Empress Joy" breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this time she would finally be able to tell who was the enemy and who was the teammate.
As a result, the next moment, the two felt a chill on their backs, their scalps tightened, and the hairs on their bodies stood up!
A premonition of extreme danger pierced their minds like a silver needle, causing the two of them to dodge and retreat immediately!
"Buzz—"
The sound of sword ringing rang out, and the terrifying sword intent was already within reach.
The two men only felt a flash of cold light in front of their eyes, their faces changed drastically, and they instinctively dodged with all their strength.
But it didn't flash...
“Shh! Shh!”
The sound of two swords cutting through flesh and blood could be heard.
Half of Anqisheng's arm was cut off, and the bone was visible. The "Happy Goddess" was huge in size, and her condition was even more tragic, with half of her body being cut off.
Previously, most of the effects of the "death" swordsmanship of "Lord Yubai" were actually corruption and decay, causing "Empress Joy" to disintegrate from within.
And at this moment, the sword of the Grandmother is the purest sword.
Although Gu Fangchen had made many jokes about the women around him in his heart before, he suspected that they were all practicing the way of killing.
But in fact, the only one who truly practices the way of killing is the Grandmaster.
The sword is a weapon of killing.
Intention is the supreme sword intention.
This is the sword of the founder of Jiange, simple and pure.
No matter what level of cultivation you have, in my eyes they are all apples and watermelons, and I cut them like melons or vegetables.
Those who inherited her sword spirit in the future, such as Ying Baishou and Ning Songjun, were just imitating her disciples.
Gu Fangchen was also terrified when he saw two of the strongest second-grade warriors in the world being chopped down by the Grandmother like melons and vegetables...
He felt a chill in his heart.
It seems that the strength of the Grandmother is even stronger than the last time I saw her!
Last time, Lu Fuyi was able to hold her back for a long time, but now, it might be a bit difficult.
Moreover, her "intelligence" seemed to be gradually returning. Her demeanor, words, and actions all seemed a little smarter. She was no longer as dull as the Slowpoke when they first met.
It's as if it's gradually "thawing".
I wonder if during the time that Zushi Nai was missing, she went back to her hometown and upgraded her AI.
Okay, no kidding.
Gu Fangchen took a deep breath.
He had a feeling that such behavior should be a sign that the true body of the ancestor was awakening.
The situation of Zushi Nai is very similar to that of the "Military Genius" Li Kan who was resurrected from a dead body.
Although their bodies are sealed, their souls can still move freely.
Since someone like Li Kan was able to use Gu Yuye's body to escape, it seems that it is not impossible for the Grandmother to force her own body out...
This is not a good sign.
On the other side, An Qisheng looked at the wound on his arm with a look of horrified anger:
"What do you mean, sir?!"
"I've already said it before, we have no intention of coveting your sword. Our only goal is to kill this man!"
"Your Excellency still wants to take action. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?!"
The Grandmother looked at Gu Fangchen, then at them, her eyes becoming even colder, her tone very firm:
"You're lying! You clearly intended to break my sword, how could you say you haven't coveted it?"
She put two fingers together to form a sword finger, and her figure disappeared from the spot in an instant. The next moment, a sword intent that penetrated the sky and the earth rose into the sky.
An Qisheng: “…”
"Empress Joy": "..."
At this moment, even these two powerful Taoist masters, who had experienced the vicissitudes of life, felt a sense of powerlessness, like a scholar meeting a soldier, unable to explain their reason.
An Qisheng was sure that he had cleared his mind completely. Now even if the group of bald monks in the Galan Temple came to see him, they would have to admire him and say that he had a connection with Buddhism and should become a monk.
However, the mysterious woman in green dress still believed that he was lying.
There must be a reason for this situation...
The sword intent was like a violent storm, overwhelming the heaven and earth with overwhelming force.
The demon sect members around them all changed color and wanted to hide, but with their strength, how could they avoid the sword of the Grandmother Ancestor?
“Squeak, squeak, squeak…”
Amidst the flying blood and flesh, the whole world seemed to have turned into a purgatory of minced meat.
It is even more terrifying than the previous battle.
On the sea below, red rain consisting of various broken limbs fell one after another, dyeing the sea water near the pier red.
An Qisheng tried his best to dodge, and even used the magical power of "words become reality" to prevent the boundless sword intent from harming him, but it was just a drop in the bucket.
He shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Sir! The one who stole your sword was Gu Fangchen, not us!"
"If you want to get your sword back, you should kill him!"
However, no matter how he tried to dissuade her, he even cursed her.
The woman in the green dress just increased the force of her sword swing with a cold look and added:
"lie!"
He had no time to think and could only use all his spiritual power to hold on.
When he raised his head with sweat on his forehead and looked at Gu Fangchen, he saw the latter grinning at him.
An Qisheng's pupils constricted as he finally noticed a deep wound on Gu Fangchen's body.
In the wound, after a mirage-like distortion, golden threads and the bones underneath appeared.
The skeleton was the color of colored glass, transparent and full of spiritual energy, with the phantom shapes of mountains and rivers looming in it.
This is clearly the earth vein!
At first, the shape of this earth vein was above the [Seventy-two Peaks Towering Sword].
But now, it is on Gu Fangchen's bones!
An Qisheng could probably guess what this meant.
That precious sword and the earth veins on it were actually refined by Gu Fangchen and became a part of himself!
In other words, he is now the sword.
This is the "sword" that the woman in green skirt wants to take away!
If they wanted to kill Gu Fangchen, they naturally had to break the sword of the woman in green skirt, and of course she would come to kill them.
Gu Fangchen used the "Mirage Array" to cover up this so that they would not be able to see it, and thus relax their vigilance against the woman in green skirt, mistakenly thinking that the latter was here to kill Gu Fangchen.
If not for this, they would not have let the wolf into the house like this.
"puff!"
An Qisheng couldn't believe it and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Is this guy crazy?!
He now finally understood why the woman in green skirt caught and killed them indiscriminately, but he still found it incredible.
Refining a sword, a quasi-grade sword refined by the earth veins, into one's own skeleton.
The pain and risks involved have far exceeded the limits of what ordinary people can understand.
Gu Fangchen actually treated his own life as if it were nothing. He was so crazy that even they would feel ashamed of themselves.
He used his own life to set up a trap and plot against these second-rate people.
It seems... their defeat is not an unacceptable fact.
An Qisheng felt that there was not a drop of spiritual energy left around him.
Those sword energies not only killed lives, but even spiritual energy, such an invisible existence, was completely chopped off and deprived.
An Qisheng's face turned pale and despair surged in his heart.
In the distance, the "Goddess of Joy" had turned into a pile of white skeletons, leaving only half a lonely head and one eye, looking at the sky unwillingly.
Then, he was stabbed to death by a sword by a woman in green skirt who appeared.
"Empress of Joy", die!
An Qisheng watched helplessly as the blood-colored area around him gradually invaded the empty space around him. He smiled bitterly and looked at the crack in the distant sky.
That "Gate of Heaven".
After all, we will never see the day when the truth of this world is revealed.
An Qisheng's eyes were full of longing. He had once met the "Tao", but because of his own lack of qualifications, he was not chosen. He could only watch the "Tao" pass by him. From then on, he could not forget it and it became his obsession.
All the "Tao" in this world is false. Only the golden light he once saw and the silk thread hanging down from the sky are real!
He looked at the golden thread falling in front of him, and was filled with joy, thinking that he was the chosen one.
However, in the end, it is nothing but an illusion.
He wanted to catch the Water Moon Mirror Flower, so he became a disciple of Xie Qian and founded the "Jie" sect.
And now… everything that seemed so close still slips away like sand through fingers.
"laugh!"
The sword swept across.
An Qisheng's head, which had a Taoist immortal look, also fell to the ground.
The woman in the green dress had no expression on her face, and her look didn't change at all. She put down her sword and turned to look at Gu Fangchen.
Those who tried to break the sword have all been eliminated.
Next.
Of course that was to take away her sword.
As for how to take it away...
Grandma Zushi tilted her head slightly, pondering whether she could pull out all the bones, but the conclusion was... no.
Then, take the whole person away first.
Gu Fangchen felt the gaze of the Grandmother, shuddered slightly, and twitched the corners of his mouth. He felt as if the person on the other side was thinking about something extraordinary.
However... since he deliberately lured the Grandmother here, he would naturally not be unprepared.
The real rescuer he was waiting for has arrived.
…
Shi Qingguang suddenly had an idea and turned his head, and his wrist was grabbed by a perfect white jade hand.
She looked up and saw a beautiful face.
Cold and unique, with a dot of cinnabar between the eyebrows.
