Volume 9: Sword Opens the Gate of Heaven Chapter 27: The Art of War: Dragon Bird
"It's me. I'm here as you wish." Lu Qingshan also narrowed his eyes and looked at the gray-robed monk in front of him.
"Master Zhishoulou?" he asked.
The gray monk nodded, not hiding his identity, "The Chief of the Prison Department of the Xingzhou Zhishoulou, Rosen."
After getting the exact answer, although Lu Qingshan remained calm, the extreme anger in his heart was too much to be told to others.
He could accept that someone coveted his Taoist weapon.
That's human nature.
But he absolutely could not accept that Zhishoulou, which was the opposite of the underworld and should represent the so-called justice, had done the same thing as the underworld.
From the perspective of standpoint, Zhishou Tower is even more evil than the underworld.
"Dan Tai Qingrun is in your hands?" Lu Qingshan asked again.
Rosen's eyes turned red, and with a wave of his hand, a ray of light flew towards Lu Qingshan.
Lu Qingshan frowned, stretched out his hand and picked up the spiritual light.
A token lay quietly in the palm of his hand.
Tan Tai Qing Run's token.
"What do you want?" Lu Qingshan's voice became increasingly cold and stern, as if he did not take being besieged seriously at all.
Rosen's eyes showed a hint of admiration, "As expected of the strongest in the fifth realm, at least this courage is worthy of this praise."
After a brief pause, Rosen raised his eyelids and looked directly at Lu Qingshan, "You should be thankful that you really came here alone and did not inform others, otherwise you would have lost this confidante today."
Compared to the twists and turns that the monks from the underworld used when dealing with Lu Qingshan, Rosen, the chief warden of the Zhishou Tower, seemed to use extremely "low-level" methods to deal with Lu Qingshan.
——Capture Tan Tai Qing Run, then give a specific location and lure him into the trap.
There is no cover-up and not much disguise.
But it is a very practical trick.
This is because of different status and strength.
The underworld is in a situation where everyone is calling for its destruction within the human realm. It is not suitable to show up in public. There are many concerns, and many things can only be done secretly.
Although Zhishoulou cannot be said to be omnipotent in the human world, he is almost there.
Therefore, people involved don't need to take too many detours when doing things.
The reason why they placed the "jar" on this Blade Island was, in fact, to show Lu Qingshan their identity as the guardian of the tower.
Knowing their identities, Lu Qingshan had to consider how powerful the guards of Zhilou were. If he secretly reported the matter to the elders of the sect, would he be discovered?
Once this fear exists, as long as Lu Qingshan really cares about Tan Tai Qingrun's life, he will definitely do as they say.
This is also true.
There was no way Lu Qingshan would risk Tan Tai Qingrun's life.
This is the world of cultivation. The stronger you are, the simpler .
"Xingzhou, Qingluomen." Rosen finally looked serious and uttered an address.
Lu Qingshan's pupils shrank slightly.
"Your confidante is now in Qingluo Gate in Xingzhou. If you can find a way to leave here today, just go to Qingluo Gate to find her." Rosen nodded and confirmed again.
They had no enmity with Lu Qingshan, they just wanted to kill him and seize the Taoist weapon. Since they had already "invited" Lu Qingshan here, there was no need to make things difficult for Tan Tai Qingrun.
"It's just that..." He grinned and said, "First of all, you have to be able to leave here."
"Kill!" The next moment, Rosen suddenly shouted the order.
The combined attack of more than two hundred Jindan monks was enough to make people feel suffocated by its momentum alone.
The first to launch the attack were the spiritual practitioners.
Uniform.
Dozens of spiritual practitioners activated their magic weapons at the same time, concentrating their spirits to attack.
At this moment, all kinds of translucent lights and shadows were shooting towards Lu Qingshan.
Using their souls to attack, they first controlled and shocked Lu Qingshan, and then other cultivators followed closely, unleashing attacks to kill Lu Qingshan directly.
Very simple and clear fit.
These Jindan cultivators from Zhishou Tower were not too far away from Lu Qingshan, and the sudden attack, especially the difficult-to-defend-against-the-Spirit-energy attack, was definitely something that caught people off guard.
Puff puff puff!
A moment later.
More than thirty soul attacks arrived in an instant, invading Lu Qingshan's body, directly blasting into his sea of consciousness, rapidly moving towards the soul above his sea of consciousness.
Lu Qingshan was not panicked at all.
Sizzle!
The next moment, the mighty soul attack crashed directly into an area covered by golden light.
Abbot of Tianxin.
The Tianxin Abbot's Temple, which covers an area of ten zhang, is like a Buddhist kingdom, a pure land, which firmly protects Lu Qingshan's soul inside.
The powerful soul attack could not move an inch in the territory of Abbot Tianxin. It was like oil frying in a hot pan, making a sizzling sound, and turned into wisps of smoke and dissipated.
The stupid green snake that was wrapped around Lu Qingshan's soul saw this scene and snorted in disdain.
In a ten-zhang area, these attacks didn't even go beyond three zhang.
Rosen glanced at Lu Qingshan and was horrified to see that his expression remained unchanged.
In his opinion, even if Lu Qingshan was as strong as a Divine Transformation cultivator, his soul could not be much stronger than that of a Divine Transformation cultivator.
After all, there is an insurmountable threshold in the Yuanshen realm in the Lianxu realm.
Therefore, if Lu Qingshan faced too many soul attacks at the same time, he would definitely be doomed.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qingshan's expression didn't even change the slightest.
Their first wave of spiritual attacks seemed to fall on deaf ears.
…
In fact, after knowing the location of Tan Tai Qingrun, Lu Qingshan could completely rely on the powerful defense of the blood-stained warship and forcibly leave here despite the overwhelming attack.
But he didn't do it.
First, if he forcibly left, the monks in Zhishou Tower here would most likely become angry and transfer Tan Tai Qingrun again before he reached Qingluo Gate.
After all, no matter how fast he is, he can never be faster than the speed of spiritual message transmission.
Second, his murderous intent had accumulated to the extreme at this moment, it was stronger than ever before, to the point where he had to release it.
From the moment he saw the disaster in Tai'an City, murderous intent arose in his heart.
It had been piling up like this until now, when he discovered that the interior of Zhishou Tower was also rotten, his murderous intent finally reached a boiling point.
If he does not kill these hypocrites today who disguise themselves as "Zhishoulou monks" but do the evil things of "Underworld monks", his heart will never be able to understand!
Lu Qingshan was filled with murderous intent.
"It's my turn." He said softly.
"Don't you want a Dao weapon? Then today I will let you see the power of a Dao weapon."
Facing such a large enemy force, it is not an easy task to wipe it out even for a strong Jindan cultivator, let alone he is just a Lianxu cultivator.
Therefore, Lu Qingshan directly used his most powerful explosive secret technique.
Commonly known as, using the ultimate move at the beginning of the game.
"Move fast as a dart."
Lu Qingshan silently recited the Three Worlds Karma Meeting in his heart, "Dragon and Sparrow, unite!"
Immediately, a beam of red light shot out from his body, suspended in the air, and hovered in front of Lu Qingshan.
Dragon bird.
The sword is bright red all over, and there are noble light golden dragon and phoenix patterns on the surface, which are shining brightly.
The next moment, a pale golden light and blazing red flames suddenly surged out from the Dragon Sparrow Sword, sweeping across like a storm.
In an instant, the nearby area was filled with a destructive force.
The powerful aftermath caused the Jindan cultivators who surrounded Lu Qingshan to involuntarily step back several feet before they could steady themselves.
"What kind of secret method is this?" Rosen was horrified, his pupils widened, and he was almost dumbfounded.
If the aftermath of the secret technique alone is so powerful, how powerful would the secret technique itself be?
I can’t imagine it!
The visions continue.
Two phantoms, as agile as dragons and snakes and as playful as phoenixes and sparrows, swam out from above the dragon sparrow and wandered around it.
And behind Lu Qingshan, a soul shadow is emerging.
Two phantoms of dragon and phoenix swam quickly towards the soul shadow.
In the sky full of flames, the soul shadow gradually solidified.
It was not a ferocious beast, but the soul of a graceful woman.
She was wearing a light and flowing ancient palace dress. The fiery red skirt was as hot as fire, fluttering in the wind, creating ripples of varying depths. Her eyes were slightly closed, and she was whispering something in an ancient language.
Qin Yitian.
Her long hair was spread out like a dancing fire, and her beautiful face was surrounded by unprecedented majesty. The tongues of fire were wrapped around Qin Yitian's slender waist like a belt.
Shadows of dragons and phoenixes hovered behind her.
At this moment, Qin Yitian was like a celestial being born from fire, without a speck of dust on her, and possessing an irresistible charm.
The soul shadow appeared behind Lu Qingshan, so Lu Qingshan did not see this scene.
However, the monks from Zhishou Tower who surrounded Lu Qingshan saw this scene clearly.
Born in the scorching flames, their unique and independent temperament and graceful figure like a beautiful fairy all brought them a strong visual impact and spiritual shock.
The next moment.
Qin Yitian's soul shadow behind Lu Qingshan took a step forward, like a woman hugging her beloved lover from behind, and stretched out her arms to hug Lu Qingshan.
Afterwards, her figure completely merged with Lu Qingshan.
"Young Master, I'm here." Qin Yitian's soft and cold voice sounded in Lu Qingshan's ears.
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying aura suddenly emanated from Lu Qingshan's body.
The momentum was so overwhelming that Rosen couldn't help but take a few steps back.
It seemed as if endless power was surging out of Lu Qingshan's body.
Lu Qingshan slowly raised his hands.
At this moment, his palm became as crystal clear as jade, and lines like flame vines spread in his palm. Finally, a faint golden dragon and phoenix shadow appeared at the top of the flame vine.
"The Art of War... Is this the power of the Dragon Bird?" Lu Qingshan murmured to himself.
"Awaken the weapon, release some of its power to bless yourself, thereby gaining infinite combat power and unparalleled attack power."
"Depending on the attributes and quality of the weapon you liberate and awaken, as well as the level of your secret technique, you will gain different levels of combat power improvement."
Learned from the Bingmo clan, the first secret method of the demon clan to attack, the Bing character formula.
This was the first time that Lu Qingshan used this secret technique since he mastered it.
And what was released was the Dragon Bird, which possessed the qualities of a Taoist weapon.
Lu Qingshan closed his eyes slightly and felt his current fighting power.
Double combat power.
When Qingge released the black blood, his combat power was doubled.
At the same level, he used the Taoist weapon as a carrier to release the Bing Zi Jue, and Lu Qingshan's combat power was doubled.
You have to know that this is a comprehensive, all-round transformation.
What a terrifying increase!
"One minute." Lu Qingshan said to himself.
The combat power boost granted by the Bing character formula can only last for one minute.
"That's enough!" he said.
One minute is definitely enough to kill all these Divine Transformation monks!
…
The center of Blade Island.
The three combined monks who were sitting cross-legged all had solemn expressions on their faces.
"What is this secret method?"
They had never seen a secret method that could elevate one's aura to such a terrifying level.
…
Lu Qingshan opened his eyes and looked indifferently at the Zhishou Tower monks around him who were alert.
A dark blue sword like ice crystal appeared in his hand.
The River of Oblivion.
Lu Qingshan held the Wangchuan River, took a deep breath, and his figure flashed. He jumped away from the bloody warship. Instead of retreating, he dived towards the front of the Blade Island.
His speed was extremely fast, and the distance was very close. After a moment, he was already very close to the monks from Zhishou Tower in the front.
Immediately, he swung the sword into the air.
Sword energy surged and condensed into lines, shooting out from the Forgotten River, forming a sword storm.
The sword energy surged in the surrounding void like ripples of the sea, and its trajectory was dreamy and elusive.
The Divine Transformation monks in Zhishou Tower felt the power of the sword energy and were ready for battle.
One of the practitioners, who had reached the state of spiritual transformation, clasped his hands together and was about to condense a spell.
But his movements came to an abrupt halt the next moment.
Because his head flew into the air.
Blood spilled in the sky.
On his flying head, his eyes were wide open, still showing a bit of disbelief and incomprehension.
Lu Qingshan's sword was clearly still some distance away from him. No matter how fast or fierce it was, it should not be able to hurt him.
How can you kill someone from a distance?
The same scene is repeated all over the place.
With just this one sword strike, dozens of heads flew off.
Secret Sword: Return of Spring Breeze.
"When your sword is within ten feet of the enemy, you can strike the enemy from a distance and the sword will hit the target with one strike."
The sword will hit anyone within ten feet and cannot be dodged.
The other monks were stunned by this scene and were completely stunned.
It was a massacre.
A sword cultivator at the level of Void Refinement, with one breath and one sword strike, instantly killed dozens of Spirit Transformation cultivators.
"It's easy to kill people this way." Lu Qingshan smiled indifferently.
He does not have the cultivation level of a spirit, but with the help of the Bing Zi Jue, he now even has the qualifications to compete for the title of the number one person under the fusion level.
After all, the Bing Zi Jue is known as the demon clan's number one secret method of attack, and it is extremely powerful, and the carrier that Lu Qingshan uses to perform this secret method is a Taoist weapon!
The lethality that crushes the Divine Transformation cultivators, combined with the sure-hit Spring Breeze Returns.
In Lu Qingshan's eyes, these current Jindan cultivators are nothing more than fish for him to slaughter.
"Let's attack together. No matter how strong he is, he is just a swordsman. Defense is his weak point!" Rosen shouted in anger and fear.
Suddenly, the remaining monks in Zhishou Tower came to their senses and took action.
Earthy yellow, light blue, golden yellow...all kinds of spells rushed towards Lu Qingshan.
Golden wheels, fire fans, thunder beads...many kinds of magical weapons burst out with tremendous power and bombarded Lu Qingshan.
Rosen's mind moved, and he controlled two ghosts comparable to those of a combined cultivator condensed by the power of the formation, and pounced forward fiercely, biting Lu Qingshan.
The fog behind the ghost condensed into a fog dragon.
Faced with such a huge momentum, Lu Qingshan's eyes flashed coldly.
Mighty threads of sword energy flowed out from the acupuncture points all over his body, dancing freely like a dragon.
However, unlike the invisible and colorless sword energy in the past, this time his sword energy appeared a fiery red color like red flames, and the power contained in it was incomparable.
