Chapter 416: Dragon Binding Rope, Invisible Knife
The Moon-Choosing Officer transformed himself into a young girl, stood on the golden palace, and looked up at the sky, wondering, "Why are dark clouds suddenly covering the moon?"
The Thunder Officer swallowed the white pearl in one gulp. He swam down from the gatepost of the Golden Palace, landed in mid-air on the Golden Palace, and transformed into a human form. He said, "It must be someone who is causing trouble, stirring up storms and creating fog and clouds."
The wind was howling, the clouds were swirling, and the water of Taihu Lake was swirling around West Dongting Mountain like a whirlpool.
The lake water turned into a dragon shape, lifting Du Heng, the patrolling general and several attendants up to the same height as West Dongting Mountain.
Du Heng held the Jade Vase in his hand and his voice was like thunder, shaking Liang Yu of the Divine Scenery Palace slightly. "Great Immortal Jin Ting, return my pearl immediately and give me the other two pearls as an apology, and I will spare your life. Otherwise, I will make you perish in Taihu Lake today!"
The Thunder Officer transformed into a black dragon and pounced towards Du Heng, his claws flashing with cold light. He shouted angrily, "You little brat, you're so arrogant!"
When Du Heng saw him rushing towards him, he suddenly took out a golden rope from his sleeve, which turned into golden light and wrapped around Cai Lei Guan's claws. In just a moment, it wrapped around Cai Lei Guan like a dragon snake, trapping him like a dumpling and dropping him into Taihu Lake.
Du Heng was very proud and laughed heartily, "I knew you were here, this evil dragon. How could I not be on guard?"
The Thunder Officer struggled desperately, but the golden rope tightened around him, causing huge waves in Taihu Lake.
Du Heng said, "Don't struggle. This dragon rope is made from the tendons of a true dragon that's close to the upper third rank. It's naturally able to restrain dragons. You're only fifth rank, how can you break free?"
"This is too much!" The Thunder Officer let out a sad and angry dragon roar, and kept tearing at the dragon rope like a madman. He used his four claws to make a gap in the dragon rope, twisted his body, and tried to get out, but was then locked by a stronger force.
"Dragon Rope... Dragon Rope! This is too much! This is too much!"
Frost and snow spewed out of the Thunder Officer's mouth, circling around his body, trying to break free from the dragon rope.
His claws were broken, his scales were cracked, and his dragon blood dyed the water of Taihu Lake red, but he was like a madman, fighting more and more desperately.
The patrolling general frowned and said, "Your Highness, this evil dragon won't break free, will it?"
Seeing the Black Dragon so resolute, Du Heng couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "It's okay. This dragon rope has a special origin. He can't break free just because he wants to. Don't worry about him. Just go and capture the Immortal Jin Ting."
The patrolling general stood on the tap, showed his octagonal silver hammer, and said, "Great Immortal Jin Ting, come out quickly and receive your death."
The moon-like Dan Qi in the sky suddenly flew up, fell like a comet, and headed straight for the water dragon.
The patrolling general raised the bright silver hammer, but just in time he held it in front of him when he heard a crisp sound and then felt like he was hit by a mountain and flew back in the air.
The Dan Qi continued to move forward with unabated force, but it turned back, carrying with it the faint glow of the moon, like a huge fox fire, yet it was so cold that it chilled people's bones, and it headed straight for Du Heng.
Du Heng held the Jade Statue in front of him, and the Dan Qi rushed towards him, as if the bright moon was falling in front of him. The Jade Statue shone brightly, and the water in the cup vaguely took on the shape of Taihu Lake. The gushing light protected Du Heng like a cloud tent.
Du Heng was knocked into the sky, but was unharmed.
But the water dragon under his feet turned into an ice sculpture and fell into Taihu Lake. The several servants on the water dragon froze to death in Taihu Lake without a sound.
Smoke and clouds swirled around the Dan Qi. The smoke and clouds suddenly expanded, and then suddenly shrank and collapsed, turning into a proud fox demon with white hair and golden eyes.
The Immortal Jin Ting stood in the void and said, "Little friend, you brought two valuable treasures to trouble me. I wonder if the Taihu Lake God knows about this?"
Du Heng was furious and said, "My father made peace with you, but I didn't agree. Now he's out visiting friends, and no one can stop me!"
The Immortal Jin Ting said quietly, "If you keep insisting on doing this, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Du Heng laughed heartily and said, "I have the Taihu Divine Lord here, the lake-suppressing divine weapon. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
The jade vessel in Du Heng's hand was condensing with divine light, as if the entire Taihu Lake was contained in this small jade vessel.
Dark clouds gathered in the sky, thunder roared, and the Taihu Lake below was windy and turbulent, with surging tides. All of this echoed the divine power of the Taihu God.
Just as the Wujiang River Water Map that Gong Mengbi saw back then was a water-controlling artifact, the Taihu Lake God before him was also a lake-controlling artifact, embodying extraordinary power and representing extraordinary significance.
Du Heng suddenly raised the Jade Vessel, and the water in the Jade Vessel gushed out like a river from the sky. The entire sky was covered with the water of Taihu Lake. In just a moment, the Great Immortal Jin Ting was swept into it.
The divine power of the entire Taihu Lake was pressed upon the Immortal Jin Ting, ready to crush him into a pulp in an instant.
A light shone from the Immortal Jin Ting's body, like a bright moon, shielding him and keeping the Taihu Lake out. No matter how the water of Taihu Lake swirled, he was like a stubborn stone that could not be crushed.
"Your Highness, I'm here to help you!" There was a sound of water in Taihu Lake. The patrolling general rolled up the waves and jumped into the air, merging into the water of Taihu Lake and smashing the Immortal Jin Ting with a hammer.
The clothes of the Great Immortal Jin Ting fluttered in the wind as he tried to dodge, but he was wrapped up in the Taihu Lake and could not move. He was hit by the bright silver hammer, and the protective light on his body was cracked.
Du Heng laughed heartily, "Where do you want to escape to? Patrol General, capture him!"
Under the divine power of Taihu God, the patrolling general's bright silver hammer hit the protective Xuan Guang of Jin Ting Daxian again with unimaginable force, smashing the Xuan Guang into pieces. The bright silver hammer fell on Jin Ting Daxian, but was blocked by his bare hands. He was unable to control himself and was swept into the depths of the lake.
Du Heng was overjoyed, "Collect!"
The Jade Zun gathered the water from Taihu Lake, and in just a moment, it rolled the Immortal Jin Ting into the Jade Zun.
Du Heng held the jade statue and shook it slowly as if drinking, admiring the sight of the Jin Ting Great Immortal being rolled into the cup like tea leaves.
"Great Immortal Jin Ting, you are now imprisoned by me, what else do you have to say?"
There was no reaction from the Jade Emperor, as if the Immortal Jin Ting had fainted.
Du Heng leaned over and asked suspiciously, "Is he dead?"
"No."
The voice of Jin Ting Daxian rang in Du Heng's ears.
Du Heng said, "That's good. Return my pearl quickly."
The Immortal Jin Ting sighed softly and said, "Now even you are mine. How can I return the pearl to you?"
Du Heng laughed in anger, "You're already a prisoner, yet you still dare to speak so arrogantly? General, listen to me, is this ridiculous?"
He looked up at the patrolling general and saw a huge black catfish in front of him, with its gills pierced by a whip made of tens of millions of black silk threads. It was hanging in mid-air, half-dead.
He looked up along the black whip, and saw that the dark clouds in the sky had dispersed at some point, and a bright moon was hanging in the sky. The Great Immortal Jin Ting was standing under the moon, with his five tails waving behind him.
The blood-covered black dragon looked at him with hatred that Du Heng could not understand, and his scarlet eyes made him tremble with fear.
Du Heng wanted to look down at the jade statue in his hand to confirm whether the Immortal Jin Ting was still there, but he couldn't lower his head.
The moment his eyes saw the Immortal Jin Ting and the bright moon in the sky, it seemed as if an invisible knife light fell into his eyes.
Du Heng was still standing there, but he had lost all consciousness.
