Three hundred miles outside Yanhuang City, on an unnamed hill.
Ji Bingyan stood atop the hill, looking down at the people and scenes in the distance.
In the distance, dark clouds covered the sky, and the sounds of battle echoed faintly across the wilderness.
Suddenly, Ji Bingyan frowned: "Damn it, this aura is the descent of an Emperor!"
Should we report this news to the Empress? But I have no connection with the Longhan court, so let's not get involved..."
Just as Ji Bingyan was wondering what was going on and was about to turn and leave, a strange laugh came from mid-air.
"Hehehe, I have only just arrived and I have already encountered such a talented and beautiful woman. Would you be willing to stay by my side and listen to my teachings?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and a burly figure descended, carrying an aura of world-destroying power, and proudly arrived.
The moment Ji Bingyan landed, she felt the ground beneath her feet tremble violently. The nameless hill was unable to withstand the violent pressure and showed signs of collapsing.
"Shadow-shifting guide".
Knowing that the visitor was hostile, Ji Bingyan did not hesitate and took the initiative to try to save her life.
However, his palm strike, which he considered flawless, was instantly blasted back to the edge of the cliff by a powerful protective true energy the moment it reached his opponent.
"Hehehe, little girl, you have quite the audacity. Do you think you can do whatever you want in this world just because you've reached the state of 'selflessness'?"
Ji Bingyan remained silent, knowing the vast difference in strength between herself and the person before her. Having suffered a defeat in one move, she decisively turned and fled in the opposite direction.
However, just as she leaped into the air, she suddenly felt an immense pressure from above. As she quickly shifted her body, a powerful force pierced through the air and pressed down.
Boom~
With a tremendous roar, the hillside collapsed in an instant.
Fortunately, Ji Bingyan was exceptionally agile and managed to dodge the fatal blow, landing on flat ground. However, she was still injured by the aftershock, and a bloodstain flew from her luscious lips.
However, her brows furrowed even more deeply at this moment.
Because she was surrounded by Vajrayana disciples dressed in yellow lama robes.
Sect Master Darba had his back to Ji Bingyan. The disciple who had launched the attack earlier was respectfully protecting him to one side. He was Darba's personal disciple, Venerable Golden Saint.
"Master, let me kill her."
"A Saintly Realm cultivator killing a Selfless Realm cultivator, can you afford to lose face like that?"
"Yes, Master, your disciple knows his mistake."
Darba slowly turned around, revealing his dignified appearance to Ji Bingyan.
Ji Bingyan felt an overwhelming pressure coming down on her, almost making her kneel down in front of him.
"Little girl, would you like to become my disciple?"
"I don't want to, I already have a master."
"That's a shame."
Darba's face was full of regret. Ji Bingyan's talent was extraordinary. If she had stayed by his side, she would have been able to inherit his entire mantle.
But since they are unwilling, Darba will not force them.
If you can't have it, then you can only...
kill!
"Little girl, I have already given you a chance, but unfortunately you did not cherish it."
With a soft sigh, Darba turned and vanished in a flash of light.
"Leave no survivors, be quick about it."
With a command, Venerable Jin Sheng immediately followed Darba and sped towards Yanhuang City.
At the same time, Ying Chaoyun, who was playing the zither, frowned and immediately left Fengyu Tower, heading out of the city.
But someone noticed something was wrong even faster than Ying Chaoyun.
Shen Zhao, who was chatting with Di Feijing on the rooftop, immediately fled out of the city upon seeing the strange phenomenon in the sky.
...
Outside the city, Ji Bingyan was surrounded by the corpses of Vajra Sect disciples.
Holding a pair of short daggers, she stood in the center of the battlefield, her gaze fixed firmly on the endless stream of Vajra Sect disciples ahead.
Ji Bingyan forcibly raised her cultivation to the Selfless Realm with the help of a secret technique, but her foundation was not stable. After experiencing such a high-intensity battle, her physical strength began to gradually fail.
"The Heavenly King's Demon-Suppressing Song!"
Seeing that they couldn't defeat Ji Bingyan, the disciples of the Vajra Sect decisively deployed a formation.
Instantly, the sounds of drums, horns, and golden bowls resounded, and a surging sound wave swept across, continuously devouring Ji Bingyan's consciousness.
On the other side, Ying Chaoyun, who had just left the walls of Yanhuang City and traveled less than a hundred miles, bumped into Darba.
"Um?"
The two exchanged a glance, each discerning a hint of something from the other's eyes.
"Vajra Buddha Hand!"
Without any hesitation, Darba struck out with his palm at Ying Chaoyun.
"Butterflies dance in the sky."
Ying Chaoyun immediately reversed the guqin in her hand, gently plucked the strings, and instantly the surrounding spiritual energy condensed and gathered into three thousand butterflies and moths.
Boom~
When the two attacks collided, the heavens and earth changed color, and the wind and clouds were turned upside down.
Ying Chaoyun took a few steps back, and after regaining her footing, her face behind the butterfly mask remained unchanged, with a calm and composed demeanor.
Darba's expression, however, was not much better.
After their exchange, he realized that this woman's cultivation level was no lower than his own.
For the sake of the future of the Xiongnu state, he had to eliminate this potential threat in advance.
"Very good. We have just arrived in the Central Region and have already encountered such a master. The Dragon Han Dynasty is indeed full of hidden talents."
"Darba, there is an agreement between the Vajra Sect and the Celestial Dynasty that they will not interfere with each other. Are you here today to break this agreement?"
"This is an agreement between me and Empress Longhan. How did you come to know about it?"
"Have you heard of the Wind and Rain Tower? It's scattered all over Central Continent. How could you not know about such an important event?"
"Is that so? Then I cannot let you live today."
"Then let's see if you have the ability."
Unable to agree on anything, the two clashed again.
"Heavenly Buddha Seal!"
Darba flicked his imperial prayer beads and struck out with a long, powerful motion, instantly converging the swastika-shaped hand seal in mid-air before crashing down on Ying Chaoyun.
Ying Chaoyun turned the guqin in her hand, and it instantly transformed into an imperial-grade longsword.
