Chapter 285 The middle stage of the battle
Su Ziyi had already known about the Blood Refining Sect's pursuit.
Therefore, after his spiritual consciousness captured the movement of the battle, he handed the carriage to Bian Qing, gave a few instructions, and then shot in that direction with his sword. After a while, they reached the circle at the center of the battle.
Seeing him, everyone's expressions changed.
Cui Yu and the others were happy, but no matter how anxious they were, they did not mention Su Ziyi's name directly. They only gave people a few winks before fighting with the opponent in front of them again. Their opponents looked at Su Ziyi with great vigilance, especially the two foundation-building practitioners among them.
With the Rakshasa Sect's lessons learned, the Blood Refining Sect was much more cautious this time.
There were only three foundation-building cultivators in Tianlan City, but they still sent two out in order to completely eliminate the existence of Cui Yu and others. And these two happened to be the two foundation-building practitioners except He Song. One had just been promoted to the foundation-building stage, and the other was in the middle-stage of foundation-building. They were obviously not easy to deal with.
When these two people saw Su Ziyi, they immediately said calmly and loudly: "This fellow Taoist, if you are just passing by, please leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you are accidentally injured, our Blood Refining Sect will not give any explanation." Su
Ziyi The answer given to them was an oncoming sword light.
When it comes to fighting, Su Ziyi has always believed in "Don't talk nonsense, just do it." So the moment he decided to fight the opponent, he immediately raised his sword and killed him. On the other side, in order to stabilize Su Ziyi's heart, Cui Yu and the others also shouted loudly: "Do you Blood Refining Sect really think that our Xuan Cang Sect has no one? My master is waiting, so none of you can escape." "
You can hold on until your master comes." The cultivator who had just established the foundation for a short time let out a weird laugh from his throat and surrounded Cui Yu and the others. After handing over the new Su Ziyi to the cultivator who was in the middle stage of foundation building, he felt that compared to his cultivation level, Su Ziyi would definitely not be able to beat him.
Others thought the same way, including Su Ziyi himself.
But being unable to defeat him does not mean that he will be suppressed to death by the other party. When the man broke away from the fighting circle below and came towards Su Ziyi with a ring-headed sword and a sword, Su Ziyi cleverly raised his position and took the lead to take action. Several consecutive sword auras forced the opponent to raise his sword to resist, causing the opponent to He deeply realized that Su Ziyi was not as easy to deal with as he thought.
Immediately, the man's expression became serious.
None of the mental methods practiced by the Bliss Sect and the various forces under it are upright, and each of them is almost practiced by stepping on human lives. The same is true for the Blood Refining Sect. Different from the ghost transformation technique of the Rakshasa Sect, what they refine is the Qi and blood in the body. Winning the blood from others can make their Qi soar in a short period of time, and their combat effectiveness will increase. Rapid improvement.
Therefore, in just a blink of an eye, Su Ziyi watched the man in front of him rise rapidly from the middle stage of foundation building to the peak of the middle stage, and was only a thin piece of paper away from the later stage.
Instantly, alarm bells rang in his heart.
Just as he had time to turn his sword to the side, a sharp sword light struck from behind where he had just been standing. When he looked again, the person who was nearly ten feet away from him had appeared where he had just been standing. place. The speed was beyond Su Ziyi's imagination, and with sharp eyes, Su Ziyi noticed that all the muscles on this man's body were bulging, holding up his clothes like hills.
It seems that this matter is a bit difficult to handle.
With just this move, Su Ziyi knew that he might not be able to compete with the opponent in terms of speed, and the opponent only activated the secret method with an attitude of quick victory, so Su Ziyi had to defend himself with all his strength. For a moment, sword light was everywhere around him, and outsiders could only see flashes of white light and the sound of "ping-ping-ping-pong-pong" collisions.
The opponent's attacks were getting faster and faster, and Su Ziyi's sword moves couldn't help but become faster, and the consumption of spiritual power also increased.
When the other party saw this, he felt as if he had been beaten to death, determined to use up all of Su Ziyi's spiritual power even if he couldn't break Su Ziyi's defense. But he never thought that when Su Ziyi took out the pill with his backhand, a snowmelt pill appeared in his hand. After opening his mouth to swallow it, the spiritual power he had just consumed began to slowly recover again.
This made the other party angry, and when he looked at Su Ziyi's unhurried movements, he estimated that Su Ziyi definitely had more than one Snowmelt Pill in his hand. He suddenly felt greedy and angry at the same time, and looked at Su Ziyi with eyes that seemed to threaten his life. As if swallowed.
In an instant, he distanced himself from Su Ziyi.
As soon as the pressure on his hand eased, Su Ziyi did not take it lightly, but instead became fully alert. The opponent's speed was so fast that he couldn't catch it with the naked eye, so he could only use his spiritual sense to detect it. Then he saw the opponent's feet flying in the air, holding knives in both hands and stepping forward. In an instant, the spiritual energy around him was sucked away, crazy. rushed towards that person.
An unprecedented sense of crisis hit Su Ziyi's heart.
He didn't dare to neglect, so he only slowed down a beat and changed his sword stance. However, his sword stance seemed much softer compared to the opponent's sword intention. But in fact, his sword power was more domineering than the opponent's sword intention. He immediately grabbed the spiritual energy that had just been swept away by the opponent, and when the opponent swung out a move, he also blocked it with a move: "Spread without a trace!"
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a huge roar broke out between the two of them, and the dazzling white light was surrounded by huge winds and exploded in all directions, forcing everyone present to close their eyes and step back. go. People with low cultivation levels were directly injured by the shock wave and spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
As for the flowers, plants, trees and stones that could not move at all, they were blown away by the wind, or were cut into several pieces and disappeared into the horizon with the wind.
Next, Cui Yu and others did not expect that these two people would actually cause such a big battle, especially against Su Ziyi.
After all, from what he knew, Su Ziyi should be an alchemy cultivator who lacked practical skills, but he didn't expect that the other party was an extremely powerful sword cultivator? Involuntarily, his mind went blank for a moment, but he quickly reacted and fought towards the foundation-building junior practitioner.
Since Su Ziyi worked so hard, he would never allow anyone else to make trouble.
When Bai Guang converged with the wind, the two figures in the air collided again, and only heard the sound of "Dang Dang Dang", and the speed of each other was so difficult to see. When the two people separated after a round of fighting, and when they were holding swords and looking at each other, those who were interested discovered that the two of them were covered in blood, and their clothes were covered with large and small wounds. They looked so embarrassed.
"Bah!" The mid-stage foundation-building practitioner from the Blood Refining Sect had no idea that he would suffer such a big loss at the hands of Su Ziyi. He spat out the blood foam in his mouth and looked at Su Ziyi with red eyes. Compared to him, Su Ziyi was much calmer. Although the injuries in his body were more severe than the other's, the mid-stage foundation-building practitioner of the Blood Refining Sect who had just vomited out the blood had not had time to step forward and continue
. , and watched helplessly as Su Ziyi took three pills in a row. The blood energy and spiritual power in his body immediately calmed down a lot, and slowly became thicker.
Now, he really felt like tearing Su Ziyi into pieces.
Huang Yun Dan, Xue Rong Dan, and Gu Ling Dan, once the three pills were taken away, Su Ziyi's condition improved at a visible speed, and the spiritual energy around his body became thicker in an instant, and he looked almost the same as when he was at his peak. !
The face of the Blood Refining Sect cultivator opposite him changed instantly.
But before he had time to think too much, Su Ziyi, who had been passively beaten, took action this time! However, within two breaths, he had shortened the distance between him and the other party, forcing the other party to forcefully parry, and he used all his strength to force the other party, whose spiritual power was becoming increasingly empty, to use all his strength to deal with it.
What makes people even more desperate is that the secret method he used has almost expired, and the various sequelae of the backlash are slowly coming up, making his parrying movements become slower and slower.
When the two people's eyes met, Su Ziyi actually read despair in the other's eyes.
"Qiang!"
Another sound of swords clashing, but this time the balance of victory clearly tipped to Su Ziyi's side, pushing the opponent back a few feet. But just when the other party gritted his teeth and decided to give it a try, Su Ziyi suddenly stepped back. This unprepared move made the other party stunned for a moment, and then he looked at Su Ziyi with a horrified expression and used "Spreading Without" again. mark"!
At this moment, the other party really took out everything from the bottom of the box.
"Boom -"
Another earth-shattering explosion sounded from the sky, shocking the people below who were still alive and couldn't help but flinch. Cui Yu and Chen Qiuci took the opportunity to make two more cuts, and the Lianqi that was originally surrounded by them was surrounded. The cultivators were killed until only two were left. At this moment, Cui Yu's consciousness suddenly felt a familiar aura, and his face instantly became excited.
"Master!"
As he yelled, several black shadows appeared in the sky above them. The heavy power immediately suppressed everyone on the ground except Cui Yu and the others, unable to move. The newly promoted foundation builder
The cultivator was even pierced through the heart by a Mo Dao coming from the air and died on the spot. Seeing this scene, Cui Yu and others' anxious hearts finally calmed down, but they immediately thought of Su Ziyi on the other side and hurriedly shouted: "Master, hurry up and help a bunch of seniors Su!" But Su Ziyi was on the other side. The battle ended with that explosion.
Su Ziyi could no longer suppress the injuries in his body, and the aura around him instantly became weak, and he was blown back by the strong wind brought by the explosion!
Chapter 286 Xuanzong’s plot
When Su Ziyi woke up, the sky was already covered with glow.
He moved his eyelids, and his mind seemed to be covered with a layer of fog. It took a while before he finally remembered everything. At the same time, the pain caused by the wound and the feeling of weakness caused by the excessive use of muscles slowly came over, causing him to grimace.
Su Yulang, who had been standing by the side, heard his inhalation and immediately shouted in surprise: "Emma, father is awake!" Suddenly, Su Ziyi's ears were in chaos.
The sound of chaotic footsteps came from the ground, shaking his eardrums a little, and also mixed the shouts and screams of other people into a ball, making him even more dizzy. He wanted to open his mouth to tell these people to shut up, but he didn't even have the strength to open his eyes. How could he speak? In desperation, a feeling of resentment filled his chest until a familiar embrace enveloped him.
In an instant, he fell asleep peacefully again.
Seeing that Su Ziyi was silent again, Su Yulang became anxious. He jumped to his feet and was about to say something, when he saw his mother-in-law making a silencing gesture towards him. He immediately shut his mouth firmly. He knelt down obediently, sat next to Su Ziyi and stared at the person's face.
Cui Yu and Chen Qiuci, who were standing next to him, took a closer look at Su Ziyi and breathed a sigh of relief after realizing that he had just fallen asleep. The injuries they suffered were not light, but they still endured the pain and sat on the ground, face to face with Bian Qing: "Thanks to Senior Su this time, otherwise -" He sighed, forced a smile and said: "Thank you." Bian
Qing looked down at Su Ziyi's sleeping face without looking at Cui Yu, and said vaguely: "Yeah."
At this moment, he felt very complicated in his heart. On the one hand, knowing that Su Ziyi would face off against the mid-stage Foundation Establishment practitioner was Su Ziyi's own consideration; but on the other hand, personal emotions would inevitably involve anger and complaints on Cui Yu. Therefore, in order to avoid outpouring his anger, he had to avoid contact with the other party.
Cui Yu naturally knew this truth, so he smiled reluctantly and stopped talking. After watching for a while, he limped away.
When Su Ziyi woke up again, the sky was filled with stars.
The pain caused by the wound was still obvious, but it was more than Su Ziyi could bear with a calm face. He moved his eyes and opened his eyelids, just in time to meet the eyes of Bian Qing who looked surprised. Before he could say anything, Bian Qing had already held his wrist with one hand and injected a trace of spiritual power into his body. After a circle, he whispered: "It must be uncomfortable."
With his head resting on Bian Qing's soft thigh, Su Ziyi surprisingly didn't feel uncomfortable. He moved his hand and tried to touch Bian Qing's face, but Bian Qing noticed his movement and immediately reached out to grab his hand, put it on his face, and covered Su Ziyi's face with his free hand. Looking at his eyes, he said warmly: "Let's sleep a little longer, it's still very early."
Listening to Bian Qing's voice, Su Ziyi felt particularly at ease, and he really fell asleep after a while.
When leaving Qixia Town, Su Ziyi thought most about confronting others, so he might not have many other things on him, but he had too many pills to treat various injuries. Coupled with the fact that Qing Ling Gui Yi Jue was far superior to ordinary mental training methods, by the next morning, Su Ziyi felt that he should be able to stand up.
Seeing Su Ziyi wake up, the happiest people were the two senior brothers Cui Yu.
Yesterday, Su Ziyi fainted after the explosion. Although they wanted to come to rescue him, they were powerless and could only watch as Su Ziyi was blown away by the storm caused by the explosion. But fortunately, his master arrived in time and neatly dealt with the Blood Refining Sect cultivator who was still able to move and was ready to fight back, and also rescued Su Ziyi.
It's just that Su Ziyi was still too seriously injured and was not suitable for long-distance movement.
Therefore, after Su Ziyi's husband Bian Qing and others arrived here, they decided to choose a place nearby to temporarily station themselves, preparing to wait for Su Ziyi's condition to improve before leaving.
As for this decision, Cui Yu's master unexpectedly did not refuse and even stayed.
Although this move seemed full of human touch, Cui Yu keenly sensed something amiss.
However, he had no clue about it now, and Su Ziyi's waking up diverted more of his attention, so he had to put away his curiosity for the time being. He found Su Ziyi with the elixir given by his master and solemnly expressed his gratitude to the other party, but Su Ziyi only smiled and did not accept the elixir from him.
"I still have a lot of pills here, no need." Su Ziyi said to him.
"This... okay." Cui Yu has never seen Su Ziyi missing any pills since he met him. He can even take out some uncommon pills, such as the Baijiang Pill he took last time. , so it was reasonable for him to be rejected by the other party. But these few life-saving graces were enough for him to remember Su Ziyi's friendship forever, and he decided to repay Su Ziyi well in the future.
After putting away the elixir, he took out a storage bag from his arms and handed it to Su Ziyi: "This is the storage bag of the blood refining sect's foundation-building practitioner. It's your trophy." "Huh?
"
This It was quite beyond Su Ziyi's expectation. After all, he lost consciousness in the end. Even if the Xuan Cang Sect swallowed this thing, it would be blameless.
It seems that he still underestimated Cui Yu and Xuan Cang Sect.
He stretched out his hand to take the thing and thanked Cui Yu sincerely: "Thank you." His politeness made Cui Yu startled, and when he realized it, he immediately said to him with a serious face: "This time, it's really all thanks to my senior. , Whenever seniors need me from now on, just ask, I, Cui Yu, will be there without hesitation." Chen Qiuci beside him also echoed.
This time, the two of them managed to escape safely, but Xiao Ling'er was miserable. When Su Ziyi and the others made the first wave of explosions, they were overwhelmed by the powerful force and fainted. In addition, the injuries he suffered before were not serious, so even if their master arrived in time to save him, he is still unconscious.
But fortunately, he survived.
After Su Ziyi woke up, according to common sense, it was time to leave here and go to the town. After all, the weather in early winter was quite cold for practitioners. But in the next two or three days, the people from Xuancang Sect showed no sign of leaving. They left very early every day and came back very late. Only a group of "sick and weak" people were left in the entire station. Didn't see much of it.
Su Ziyi didn't have any objections to this. After all, his injuries were still recovering, and sitting in a carriage and meditating every day was better than hitting the road right now.
But Cui Yu, who had already sensed something was wrong, became increasingly doubtful.
He is not a person who likes to hide his words when facing people close to him, so one day after his master left early and returned late, he couldn't help but stopped his master and decided to ask the matter clearly. .
Although Cui Yu's master Xia Zheng is already 150 years old, he does not look that old because of his strength in the late stage of foundation building. He has snow-white hair but a face with middle-aged skin, and his overall temperament is similar to Cui Yu's. They are as tough as Yu, and you can tell at a glance that they are from the same family. But when he came back that day, he was stopped by Cui Yu. He was not too surprised. He only glanced at him lightly and motioned to go to the side to talk.
The two of them didn't go very far, and anyone who was willing to casually could hear the conversation between the two of them. However, Xia Zheng never thought of hiding this matter. He just wanted to find a quieter place to explain the matter to others. Therefore, as soon as he came to the forest, he stopped and said: "Tell me, I know you are very curious." His words were like turning on a switch on Cui Yu, and he immediately
let Cui Yu wanted to pour out all the confusion he had accumulated in the past few days, but there was too much confusion. He pondered for a long time, and finally only asked one sentence: "Master, why don't we start back to the sect?"
Xia Zheng raised his eyes and glanced at him, then turned away: "Qiu Ci should tell you what we encountered on the road before." "Yeah."
"Actually, such things do not happen in the Paradise Sect. It is not uncommon within the sphere of influence of his subordinates." He crossed his arms and his cold face made him look extremely solemn: "Our sect has a large number of disciples walking around the world every year. I don't know if we have ever encountered anything like this. To some extent, we will help those who can, and we will keep in mind those who cannot help. After reporting back to the sect, the sect will send someone to deal with it."
"I know this matter." He has never done this kind of thing for a long time. He had heard about it from other traveling brothers and sisters, so he didn't understand why Master wanted to tell him about it again.
"And we are doing the same this time." Regarding Cui Yu's words, Xia Zheng continued as if he had not heard anything: "The Blood Refining Sect forcibly instills spiritual power into ordinary people and trains them like livestock. We have already done this. I knew it, and I also found several Blood Refining Sect's dens. So, it's the same this time."
Cui Yu became quiet in an instant, and after a while he spoke: "Then, Xiao Ling'er and I have traveled so far. It's not an accident, right?"
"Yeah." Xia Zheng had no reservations about this. He said seriously: "Among the younger generation, your talent and qualifications are considered very good, but in terms of qualifications, you are still too good. Too immature. So, this time I let you participate with the attitude of letting you grow. It depends on whether you can seize this opportunity." Cui Yu took a deep breath, and his heart was beating with blood. Stop, that's not anger, but excitement. He suppressed the emotion and looked up at Xia Zheng: "I understand, Master."
"So, what point do you plan to defeat the other party this time?"
Xia Zheng He took a deep look, and then spit out three words: "Tianlan City."
