Chapter 524 Ambush
"Thank you, sir!" Xiong Xiaoli didn't expect that he would have such a great opportunity just after becoming Qin Ziling's disciple. He was overjoyed and hurried to express his gratitude.
As for the seeds of faith being planted in his soul, Xiong Xiaoli didn't feel anything. On the contrary, he felt a sense of relief.
Because of the spiritual contact and Qin Ziling's handling of Ouyang Nian and others, it was not difficult for Xiong Xiaoli to know that Qin Ziling had the same character as him, that he was kind and just. By following him, he could at least do things in a down-to-earth manner and with a clear conscience in the future.
Now Qin Ziling has bestowed him with such a great opportunity, saving him from decades or even hundreds of years of hard training. How could he not be overjoyed?
"Put this pill away first, and find a quiet place to take it later to achieve a breakthrough." Qin Ziling said calmly.
"Yes!" Xiong Xiaoli put away the Wuchen Immortal Pill, then stood up and stood respectfully behind Qin Ziling.
As soon as Xiong Xiaoli stood behind Qin Ziling, the wall of clouds and mist around him dissipated.
There was a new group of people at the original place.
The leader was a beautiful woman who looked heroic and dignified. It was Xiao Qing.
"Greetings, Master!" Everyone behind Xiao Qing bowed slightly in greeting.
Qin Ziling greeted everyone with a smile, introduced Xiong Xiaoli to everyone, ordered Bao Yingjun to arrange a place for him to practice, then gave him a few words of encouragement, and then left Xiao Qing alone.
"You should know that if you kill Ouyang Nian, Sang Fei and other people from Blood Cloud Island so directly, it will most likely attract the Blood Cloud Demon to come in person. Are you going to kill the True Immortal so soon? This is not like your style!" After everyone left, Xiao Qing said solemnly.
"This is indeed not my style of doing things, but this time I must lure here, both to lure the old thief Gou Huan away from Pingyu West City, and to confuse people so that others will not associate the death of the old thief Gou Huan with me." Qin Ziling said in a deep voice.
"You want to kill Gou Huan!" Xiao Qing couldn't help but take a deep breath when he heard that.
"That's right, I want to kill Gou Huan!" Qin Ziling nodded solemnly, and then recounted his experiences of sensing the fragments of the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Hood.
"No wonder you want to kill Ouyang Nian and others. With the character of the Blood Cloud Demon, he will most likely not be able to bear this and will definitely come in person. The Blood Cloud Demon is a true immortal. Once he is dispatched and appears in the sea west of Pingyu West City, Gou Huan, as the General of Zhenxi, will definitely not be able to sit still and will definitely come in person to watch the battle!
As long as we don't take the initiative to fight and just stay in the formation, if the Blood Cloud Demon rushes in, I will fight, and the people outside will just think that you are in charge of the formation and fighting with the Blood Cloud Demon. They will definitely not think that you have left Qingyun Fairy Island and ambushed Gou Huan halfway. "Xiao Qing analyzed calmly.
"That's right, but if the old demon Blood Cloud breaks into the formation, you must try your best to keep him and hold on until I come back. Otherwise, if you let him escape, I will have to move everyone into the cave world and flee quickly!" Qin Ziling said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry. This Five Elements Yin and Yang Formation has been well practiced after this battle. It is very powerful and has many changes. Moreover, the guardian Qi Yu and others are all strong now. With so many of us and the formation, it should be no problem to hold back the old demon Xueyun. Besides, wasn't the old demon Xueyun injured not long ago? His strength must have been reduced a lot. What I am more worried about now is the reaction from the Floating Fairy Island." Xiao Qing said.
"This time, Duanmu Song and others were robbed by me, which is a great shame for Floating Fairy Island. Logically speaking, Bai Xuan, as the great elder and the person with the closest strength to the True Immortal on Floating Fairy Island, should have personally come out to suppress me. However, Floating Fairy Island only sent the third elder Pang Dakui and the sixth elder Chuan Qing to attack Qingyun Fairy Island at the beginning.
Later, when Pang Dakui and Shi Chuanqing were blocked from attacking Qingyun Fairy Island, Bai Xuan still did not show up, but only sent the fifth elder Gong Danying to lead people to come, and also deliberately encouraged Xueyun Fairy Island to join forces with them. Obviously, the old man Fukong was either not in Fukong Fairy Island or was sitting in the life and death gate. Bai Xuan had to stay in Fukong Fairy Island and could not leave.
Besides, aren't Pang Dakui and the others still alive? If we miscalculate and Old Man Fukong comes in person, we can use their lives to threaten Fukong Fairy Island and make him hesitate. "Qin Ziling said.
" No wonder you told me at the beginning not to kill Pang Dakui and others. It turns out you had already made the worst plan." Xiao Qing said.
"Everything here is left to you! I will rush to the nearby sea area outside the west city of Pingyu to lurk now." Qin Ziling said.
"Be careful!" Xiao Qing said, staring at Qin Ziling.
"You should be careful too!" Qin Ziling hugged Xiao Qing gently, kissed her on the forehead, and then quietly left the Liantian Mountains.
After leaving the Liantian Mountains, Qin Ziling sacrificed the Ziyun Sword he got from Duanmu Song, and the surging immortal power poured into the flying sword as if it was free.
The Ziyun Sword carried Qin Ziling, like a streak of purple lightning across the sky, heading towards Pingyu West City. Its speed was many times faster than that of the Sky-piercing Immortal Shuttle.
Of course, the consumption of immortal energy is also extremely terrifying. Most people would not fly with a sword at such full strength unless they are escaping for life.
However, Qin Ziling's immortal power is extremely powerful. If it is really consumed excessively, he can directly use the Wuchen Immortal Pill to replenish it quickly.
…
Blood Cloud Fairy Island, Red Blood Palace.
Hou Li sat cross-legged on the cushion and practiced with his eyes closed.
"Great, Great Elder, something terrible has happened, something terrible has happened!" A demigod rushed in.
"Useless thing, why are you so panicking?" Hou Li suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes emitting a bloody and fierce light, and shouted sternly.
"Fifth, the Fifth Elder, the Sixth Elder, and also the Guardian Gongyang and others, their soul tablets are all broken!" said the Jindan Half-Immortal with a pale face.
"What?" Hou Li stood up suddenly, his face full of shock.
It took Hou Li a while to calm down.
He took out the special communication talisman and sent a message to Baekhyun.
Floating Fairy Island, Qiyun Palace.
Bai Xuan took a look at the communication talisman in his hand, his face suddenly changed, and then the whole person turned into a shadow and passed through the hall.
The next moment, Bai Xuan appeared in a side hall behind the Qiyun Hall where soul tablets were placed.
"Great Elder!" The person guarding the soul tablet was shocked when he saw Bai Xuan suddenly appear.
However, Baekhyun passed him directly and appeared in front of the platform where the soul tablets were placed.
The soul tablets of Pang Dakui, Shi Chuanqing, Gong Danying and others were all placed neatly on the platform.
"Huh!" Bai Xuan couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, then took out a communication talisman and used Taoist magic to send a message to Hou Li.
"What? The people on the Floating Fairy Island are fine, they are all still alive!" Hou Li's face changed drastically when he saw the message displayed on the communication talisman. Then he became furious and almost couldn't help but crush the communication talisman.
In this incident, Hou Li was instigated by Bai Xuan to send a junior brother and a junior sister to Qingyun Fairy Island to help in the battle.
As a result, Bai Xuan's men were safe and sound, but his side was almost completely wiped out. How could Hou Li not be angry? He even couldn't help but feel that he was being tricked and deceived, and led into a ditch.
However, Hou Li quickly forced himself to calm down.
"Bai Xuan, I sent people there at your invitation. Now the two elders and a dozen guardians are dead. You, the Floating Fairy Island, should give an explanation!" Hou Li delivered the message.
"Brother Hou Li, I understand your feelings. But no one could have expected that Qingyun Island would become so powerful all of a sudden. You asked Floating Fairy Island to give an explanation, but how can we do that? For now, we can only ask Senior Xueyun to take action personally and destroy Qingyun Island directly!" Bai Xuan delivered the message.
When Hou Li saw Bai Xuan's message, the anger he had suppressed almost exploded again.
Hou Li felt that Bai Xuan's answer seemed a bit gloating.
"My master is in seclusion, and the journey from Blood Cloud Fairy Island to Qingyun Island is long, so it would be more appropriate for you or Senior Fukong to take action!" Hou Li continued to force himself to calm down and sent a message.
"Brother Hou Li, if my master and I were able to take action, we wouldn't have to invite you to join forces beforehand." Bai Xuan sent a message.
Hou Li looked at the communication talisman, his expression changing for a long time. Finally, he gritted his teeth and went to the blood pool where his master was practicing in seclusion.
"You six are the six of my most proud disciples in my life, and I have invested a lot of effort in you. Tu Liao and Murong Min were killed for no reason some time ago, and we still have no clue about it. Now you tell me that Ouyang Nian and Sang Fei are also dead!" Ancestor Xueyun walked out slowly from the blood pool and said calmly, with sticky blood slowly dripping from his body.
"I am incompetent, please forgive me, Master!" Hou Li looked at the calm face of the Blood Cloud Ancestor, his heart shuddered, his knees couldn't help but soften, and he knelt on the ground.
The Blood Cloud Patriarch stared at Hou Li with bloodshot eyes. After a long while, he said, "Old Fukong should not be on Fukong Fairy Island now. It is useless for you to blame Bai Xuan. Fukong Fairy Island is Old Fukong's lair. Bai Xuan must be in charge and control the formation to resist the attack of the True Immortal.
Therefore, as long as the old man Fukong didn't come back, Bai Xuan didn't dare to risk leaving the Floating Fairy Island easily, especially now that Qingyun Island had suddenly risen and was so powerful, and the two sides had formed a great feud, Bai Xuan didn't dare to leave the Floating Fairy Island even more.
However, since Fukong is not here, it is good that Bai Xuan dares not leave Fukong Fairy Island. This is a good opportunity for the master to kill to his heart's content! The blood energy of the newly emerged Qin kid from Qingyun Island and Pang Dakui must be abundant!"
"Master is going there in person?" Hou Li breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that and asked cautiously.
The Blood Cloud Ancestor did not answer Hou Li, but said coldly: "Guard the Blood Cloud Fairy Island well, and don't make any mistakes!"
"Disciple obeys!" Hou Li bowed quickly and accepted the order.
The blood cloud looked at Hou Li coldly, then rolled up a ball of blood light and disappeared into the blood pool.
A moment later, a blood-colored fairy boat flew out from the Blood Cloud Fairy Island.
On the immortal boat, Patriarch Xueyun sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, resting. On both sides of the immortal boat stood eight earthly immortals in the middle stage of the immortal infant stage.
Even the Blood Cloud Ancestor did not dare to underestimate the strength displayed by Qingyun Fairy Island this time.
Especially since he had been seriously injured not long ago, he had to be even more cautious in this battle.
Therefore, this time he not only brought along eight Blood Cloud Guards that he had personally trained, but he also did not travel at full speed along the way. Instead, he rode on the fairy boat and closed his eyes to rest.
The blood-colored fairy boat sped at lightning speed, and after three hours, it entered the sea area west of the Pingyu Mountain blessed land.
"Why did Ancestor Xueyun come to us?"
"He seems to be heading to Qingyun Fairy Island!"
"That's right, it must be Qingyun Fairy Island! In the past few days, Floating Fairy Island and Blood Cloud Fairy Island joined forces to attack Qingyun Fairy Island, but not only did they fail to take it down, but the three groups of people from the two major fairy islands were trapped in the Qingyun Fairy Island formation. Blood Cloud Fairy Island lost two elders and more than ten guardians a few days ago, and this time two elders and more than ten guardians were trapped in Qingyun Fairy Island. If they lose more in there, even if the Blood Cloud Patriarch is a big family, it will be a big loss!"
"Ancestor Xueyun has come to our western seas, and he must be preparing to personally destroy Qingyun Fairy Island. Once he gets angry, who can stop him? Report to General Zhenxi immediately!"
The blood-colored immortal boat was filled with murderous aura and entered the sea area west of Pingyu Mountain Blessed Land with great fanfare. It was soon discovered by the practitioners in the western sea area. Immediately, like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, the news spread in an instant and also reached the spies secretly deployed in the western sea area by the Zhenxi General's Mansion.
Pingyu West City, Zhenxi General’s Mansion.
"Qingyun Island has actually trapped three groups of people from Floating Island and Blood Cloud Island, and now it has forced old man Blood Cloud to take action himself!" After listening to Lu Yu's report, Gou Huan showed a trace of surprise and solemnity on his face.
"The formation of Qingyun Island is really powerful. No wonder Qin Ziling is not afraid of the floating fairy island." Lu Yu said.
"There is no doubt that the formation of Qingyun Island is powerful, but that kid Qin may not be that simple." Gou Huan sneered.
"General, do you mean that he hid his strength?" Lu Yu was slightly surprised.
"Whether he has hidden strength or not, we will know once we go and take a look." Gou Huan said, with murderous intent emanating from his body.
"I understand. I'll prepare right away." Lu Yu bowed and said, with murderous intent emanating from his body as well.
As someone close to Gou Huan, how could Lu Yu not understand that at this moment Gou Huan had already developed real murderous intentions towards Qin Ziling.
Soon, six giant birds pulled a huge bronze chariot and flew out of the Zhenxi General’s Mansion.
The six giant birds, each with a wingspan of more than ten feet, had flashing rays of light when flapping their wings, emitting a powerful aura. They were all demonic birds in the early stages of the Immortal Infant realm.
The bronze chariot was so huge that it looked like a military training ground.
Gou Huan sat on the throne, with forty earthly immortals standing on the railings on all four sides.
There are ten people on each side, and the one in the middle is an earth immortal in the late stage of Immortal Infant.
Beside Gou Huan's throne stood Lu Yu.
Lu Yu is also an earthly immortal in the late stage of Immortal Infant.
Pulled by six giant bird monsters, this bronze chariot flew all the way out of Pingyu West City with astonishing momentum.
When the bronze chariot flew out of Pingyu West City and passed over the sea, in the sea near Pingyu West City, several aquatic creatures poked their heads out of the water and looked in the distance in the direction where the bronze chariot disappeared.
There is an uninhabited rocky island more than 25,000 miles away from Pingyu West City, with reefs everywhere.
Suddenly, one of the reefs that was shaped a bit like a human moved slightly, and it turned out to be a person.
This person is naturally Qin Ziling.
The realm of Dharmakaya is one in which the body is the Dharma and is ever-changing.
For example, Zheng Xinghan only cultivated part of his body, and that part of his body was the only part that could truly change in many ways, but Qin Ziling cultivated his whole body, and his whole body was the Dharma.
However, the Dharmakaya realm is not a high level in martial arts, and Qin Ziling's transformations are still limited, and he is far from being able to transform into anything.
"Five earth immortals in the late stage of the Immortal Infant realm, sixteen earth immortals in the middle stage of the Immortal Infant realm, twenty earth immortals in the early stage of the Immortal Infant realm. No, including the one pulling the cart, there are twenty-six earth immortals in the early stage of the Immortal Infant realm.
As expected of the Zhenxi General, this lineup is really big! There are so many immortal infants and earth immortals, especially Lu Yu, who has a deep cultivation base. So many earth immortals plus Lu Yu, together, can almost be equal to a first-grade true immortal.
Fortunately, I did not act rashly in the Zhenxi General's Mansion. If I had acted in the Zhenxi General's Mansion, once the entire Zhenxi General's Mansion's elite troops were dispatched, they would definitely be able to entangle and hold me back."
Qin Ziling, who had transformed into a reef, was thinking hard, and the aura on his body became more and more restrained. Unless a strong person deliberately scanned it with his immortal sense, it would be difficult to discover that there was a reef on this reef island that was transformed by a human.
Time passes quietly with the sound of waves hitting the rocky islands.
In the distance, there was a powerful force like that of thousands of troops rushing towards them, sweeping up gusts of wind and raising huge waves on the sea.
A huge bronze chariot appeared in Qin Ziling's sight, pulled by six giant birds.
The chariot is extremely fast.
In the blink of an eye, we were close to the rocky island.
Suddenly, all around the huge chariot, within a radius of sixty or seventy miles, a rolling stream of water essences gathered from the sea and turned into rising water mist. In the sky, there were also many water essences sweeping up a large amount of water mist and swarming in.
In a blink of an eye , the huge chariot was shrouded in clouds and mist.
"Cloud field!" General Zhenxi on the chariot was not panicked, but his face darkened slightly and he stood up from his seat.
As soon as he stood up, tremendous momentum surged out of him.
The clouds and fog rolled back all around, making it impossible to get close to the chariot.
"I am Gou Huan, the general of Xizhen under the command of King Zhu Lun, the ruler of the Fire Ape Kingdom, from Pingyu Mountain Blessed Land. I wonder which true immortal friend has visited my Pingyu Mountain Blessed Land. Please come out and have a chat!" Gou Huan said in a deep voice.
Not only does the power of a True Immortal become more powerful and pure, but he also comprehends a portion of the laws of heaven and earth. He can use his powerful cultivation and the laws he has comprehended to establish a domain around him.
The so-called territory is your own turf!
I have the final say on my own turf.
Within the domain, not only can the strength of the True Immortal be fully exerted, but the enemy's cultivation will also be suppressed, making it difficult to mobilize the energy of heaven and earth.
Therefore, there is a huge gap in strength between the Earth Immortals and True Immortals in the Immortal Infant Realm.
The former is like a baby who is not yet independent, while the latter is like an adult who already has his or her own living space and ability to make independent decisions.
The only thing that can fight against the field is often the field.
Unless the earth immortal in the Immortal Infant Realm is like a giant infant, his immortal power and immortal magic are extremely powerful and can directly break through the realm.
The dragon clan's magical powers are to swallow and exhale clouds and mist, and to gather clouds and mist. From a certain perspective, it is a bit similar to the realm of true immortals.
That's why Gou Huan had this misunderstanding.
