Chapter 591 Nangong
The scene of the Purple Sky Thunder Seal rising up appeared in Tang Wanzhou's mind. He had seen from afar four mummies standing with Li Weiyi and Qing Zijin, activating the Wan Zi Device.
He also thought of the Shaoyang guards who fled after breaking through the siege.
Faced with numerous pursuits, everyone must inevitably face the difficult test of life and death.
Tang Wanzhou let out a long breath, clearing his mind of distracting thoughts and not letting Xu Daoqing's words affect him. "If you weren't so determined to capture us alive, we might not have been able to break through. Chu Yutian wants to capture us alive because Qin Zhengyang's death has made the Shaoyang Division famous, and his reputation has been tarnished. He desperately wants to regain his face."
Tang Wanzhou actually knew that Chu Yutian wanted to capture them alive, perhaps for another reason, which was to find out the true situation of the ugly messenger "Xie Wumian".
Is Xie Wumian dead?
Is Xie Wumian an undercover agent planted by the Shaoling Army in the Taiyin Sect?
If he doesn't clarify this matter, Chu Yutian will be like Tang Wanzhou on the eve of the war, always in a state of defense and suspicion.
Xu Daoqing certainly knew the truth, but Tang Wanzhou didn't think that the person in front of him was still the same Xu Daoqing.
Qing was no longer in a hurry to take action and was just watching the show.
She knew that Tang Wanzhou was delaying time to heal his injuries.
But time was on the side of the Taiyin Cult; a large number of Dead Marquises would soon surround them. Tang Wanzhou, in his desperate state, was in great danger. Qin Zhengyang had already surrendered in the East China Sea, and Qing had long since stopped taking that risk.
Xu Daoqing said, "Saints, there's no need to belittle us. If you were several times stronger than the enemy, you would definitely want to capture them alive to gain greater information value, deterrence value, and incite rebellion."
Tang Wanzhou said, "Since you've been exposed, why don't you satisfy my curiosity and tell me where Tu Mian Gou went? And who are you? Perhaps after I know the answer, I won't want to die and will be captured alive by you."
Xu Daoqing was standing on a higher ground, and out of the corner of his eye he could catch a glimpse of several figures of the Dead Marquis sneaking over quietly.
So, he continued to stall for time: "Have you ever heard of the Taixu Clan, Shengsi?"
"Taixu Clan!"
Tang Wanzhou's eyes lit up with disbelief. "Rumor has it that the mysterious and strange Taixu Clan lives deep in the realm of the dead? The Taixu Clan hasn't appeared in southern Yingzhou for a thousand years, right? Could it be that you are..."
Xu Daoqing's body stood still.
“Wow!”
A ball of human-shaped light walked out of his body.
It was as if there was no substance at all, and one could vaguely see the mountainous terrain behind him through his ethereal body.
The humanoid figure flexed its arms and said, "Being imprisoned in a heavy and fragile body is truly an uncomfortable thing, like wearing shackles. Shengsi, let us introduce ourselves again. I am the Taiyin Sect's Hai Envoy, Jing Zheng."
"No one from the tribe has set foot in this habitat for thousands of years. It has indeed been forgotten. Otherwise, Mo Duanfeng, who was born in the Taixu Camp, should be able to guess something."
Tang Wanzhou said, "So, Tu Mian Gou's body is just a carrier for your flesh?"
"To enter the human kingdom, the Taixu people naturally need an identity and a carrier." The humanoid light continued, "When I realized that Xu Daoqing had been monitoring me, I knew I was exposed!"
"At that time, I didn't know what your purpose was in designing to enter the Ancient Kingdom of Suiyuexu from the rainforest habitat, so I could only disrupt your plan first."
"The first step, of course, is to escape and protect myself. So, I began to plan to get rid of Xu Daoqing."
"Xu Daoqing died at my hands the day before we set out. He was very strong, but he didn't expect me to dare to attack him in Dongxu Camp, nor did he expect me to be from the Taixu Clan."
"We destroyed Tumiangou's body to create the illusion that he had escaped. We hoped this would make you underestimate the enemy and think that there were no more hidden dangers within."
"I've asked Zhao Tang to help keep an eye on Tu Mian Gou for a while under the guise of buying supplies. This is a backup plan. In case you haven't been deceived, you can shift all your suspicions onto him."
"Zhao Tang has been hiding his third-level Holy Spirit Mind Master cultivation, making him the perfect target for blaming others. This will be enough to muddy the waters."
Tang Wanzhou said, "No wonder the Sky Mirror couldn't reveal anything. The Sky Mirror only detects the flesh and ghostly energy."
The humanoid light said, "We are ethereal spirits born from the void world. We are not even considered qi. How can the Sky Mirror reflect us? Only the Grand Void Camp has the means to deal with us. Shengsi, you already know so much. You can surrender now!"
“Swish! Swish…”
A series of powerful dead figures emerged from different directions and surrounded Tang Wanzhou.
More power of the Dao heart's external manifestations pressed down on her.
Tang Wanzhou remained calm and picked up the Shenxue Sword stuck in the ground: "With so many masters seeking death, it's worth it to use transcendental Taoist magic!"
All the powerful dead souls looked at each other and retreated.
Keep your distance.
Qingzao stood still, smiling sweetly, "Didn't Shengsi already use transcendental Taoism to break through the encirclement? Liu Tianchen, the deputy sentry of the Dongxu Camp, was so willing to expend his cultivation and even grant you a move? Even his own daughter doesn't get this treatment."
Tang Wanzhou glanced at her and ran his fingers across the sword: "The move I'm going to use next is what the old man asked me for after he killed Qin Zhengyang and returned to Lingxiao Living Realm to find me."
"Before, I disdained relying on others for help, thinking it would affect my resilience and decisiveness in the face of danger."
"After escaping from the East China Sea, I realized something. Having destructive power but not using it is completely different from not having it at all."
As soon as these words were spoken, Qingzao and Xu Daoqing immediately retreated.
Tang Wanzhou pinched his left hand and unleashed the Space Imperial Technique, teleporting two miles away before dashing off at lightning speed. If Qingzao and Xu Daoqing were so close, she wouldn't have been able to unleash the Imperial Technique; it would have been interrupted.
As for activating the governor's official robe, it consumes too much magic energy and takes more time to activate.
…
After the two Ghost Marquises were slashed by the Yellow Dragon Sword, the wounds burned and spread all over their bodies, and they soon turned to ashes.
As for the short, mink-like Bone Marquis, he was dismembered by two war corpse puppets.
The battle ended quickly.
There was no time to count the harvest as a large dark cloud spread over.
Li Weiyi took out the Evil Camel Bell and collected all the magical instruments, corpses, and bones on the ground, including the four battle corpse puppets. Then, together with Liu Ye, they affixed the divine talisman and fled.
The four war corpse puppets are indeed powerful, but controlling them at the same time consumes too much mental energy.
There is endless wilderness and no green plants can be seen.
Li Weiyi held the spirit crystal in one hand and the telekinetic star in the other, taking the time to recover his magic energy and telekinesis in the gaps. He was worried and could not sense Tang Wanzhou's presence. He asked, "Did Shengsi escape?"
"Shengsi escaped from another direction. She was wearing the official robe of the governor, so she should be able to get away!" Liu Ye's face was pale, her heart was sad, and there was not much confidence in her tone.
Then he took out a hand frozen in ice crystals from his arms.
It was a woman's hand.
The fingers were slender, like jade carvings, flawless. Unfortunately, they were severed at the wrist.
Li Weiyi gave him a puzzled look.
"It's Yan Zhiruo... the Pipa Girl's right hand. I picked it up on the road. I'm afraid she is in great danger." Liu Ye sighed.
Li Weiyi was silent for a moment. "I saw Qiu Cheng die tragically by the river. Keep it for now. If she manages to escape, return it to her in the future. Reattaching the palm is much easier than regenerating it."
Liu Ye nodded and put the right hand into a box.
It took them half an hour to run a thousand miles and completely shake off the pursuers behind them.
But there are always traces of fighting on the road.
It was obvious that there was a top-notch expert who was fleeing ahead of the two of them and was chasing and fighting.
They chose to change direction, not wanting to encounter a powerful being of that level. However, shortly after they changed direction, the sound of fighting energy could be heard.
The two of them quickly restrained their breath and moved to the edge of a cliff.
Looking from afar.
I saw two figures chasing and fighting fiercely in the distance, at the foot of a cliff hundreds of feet high.
The figure fleeing in front was wrapped in bright mist, with an extremely graceful posture, as if it was made of immortal jade and Taoist bones. He held a jade bamboo magic weapon and fought and retreated, his movements as beautiful as dancing.
The one chasing behind was Emperor Wen Gu Hou.
The Emperor's Bone Marquis had a powerful body, protected by ancient patterns. His speed fluctuated between fast and slow. His palms were powerful, and his arms collided with the Jade Bamboo Instrument, creating a sound like metal clashing against stone.
"Her martial arts skills are surprisingly so high."
Li Weiyi recognized Nangong wrapped in the bright mist and was greatly shocked.
You must know that Emperor Bone Marquis is a top-level strongman in the third realm. He has a sharp and domineering aura, strange patterns on his body, and contains extraordinary power. His combat power is far superior to Huo Tianming and Huanghun.
There is a third breath.
It's a turbid liquid.
It covered a large area, several miles in radius, and like a lake, it kept surging and moving. It always enveloped Nangong in the bright mist, limiting her speed.
“Crash!”
The turbid liquid contained corrosive power and turned into a huge wave, crashing into Nangong.
Suddenly, the bright mist on her body seemed to be polluted and quickly dimmed.
Liu Ye watched the chase moving towards them, her eyes solemn. "It's a different kind of deceased spirit, a spirit nurtured by the waters of Corpse Lake. Bailu Intelligence calls it Hong. It's powerful and can penetrate any hole. Once it enters a body, a living being will instantly become a corpse."
Li Weiyi summoned four war corpse puppets and released spiritual light to control them.
Four long rivers of magic energy gushed out from their ancestral fields and continuously flowed into the Purple Sky Thunder Seal.
“Boom!”
Thunder roared, and dozens of purple electric lights filled the air.
The original power of the Purple Sky Thunder Seal was activated, flying seven or eight miles away and hitting Hong Hou on the ground. Thunder and lightning spread in the lake of corpse fluid.
A sharp scream was heard in the lake of corpse fluid. It was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman, and it was extremely painful.
Nangong took this opportunity to break free from the corpse fluid of Marquis Hong and flew off the ground into the air.
“Wow!”
The corpse fluid suddenly rushed up from the ground, not to attack Nangong, but to wrap around the Zixia Thunder Seal and cut off the connection between Li Weiyi and the four war corpse puppets and it.
Li Weiyi jumped off the cliff with the four corpses, and swung his sword from a distance, cutting out an arc-shaped sword energy parallel to the ground.
"Bang!"
Nangong pulled out his sleeves and struck the Purple Sky Thunder Seal through the air, sending it towards Li Weiyi.
Li Weiyi grabbed the Purple Sky Thunder Seal and made it float in his palm.
With the help of the four magical energies emitted by the four war corpse puppets behind him, Li Weiyi suddenly leaned over and struck the Purple Sky Thunder Seal to the ground, and tens of thousands of scriptures shot out.
“Boom!”
The corpse fluid that spread in front of him was hit by scriptures and lightning, splashing dozens of feet high.
Hong Hou screamed again, sank into the soil, and disappeared underground.
On the other side, without the help of Marquis Hong, Marquis Di Wen Gu was defeated by Nangong.
After dozens of moves, his cervical vertebrae were broken by the Yuzhu magic weapon.
The head flew out.
"Bang! Bang..."
Nangong flew across the wilderness with a graceful figure, breaking the skull and spine of Emperor Wen Gu Hou one after another. After making sure that he was dead, he carried Yuzhu and flew over with the light and shadow to meet Li Weiyi and Liu Ye.
Even after experiencing a series of battles, she remained spotless.
The white Shaoyang Guard robes were not damaged at all.
Every inch of skin and every strand of hair was flowing with bright mist, not at all like a flesh-and-blood human being, but more like the incarnation of an immortal.
