Because you are afraid of pain, start the game with full defense

The masked man was blown away, still laughing loudly: "Longshe Mountain Celestial Master is at this level? Then it seems that I can also build a tower!"

Zhao Chengzhi's expression darkened when he heard the words: "It's really ridiculous that the gnat may shake the tree beyond its control."

As he spoke, he stretched out his fingers and drew a talisman in the void.

The moment the talisman took shape, the masked man immediately felt a mountain pressing down on him.

He roared, trying to break free from this invisible bondage.

But Zhao Chengzhi had already come in front of him and slapped him.

The masked man immediately vomited blood from his mouth and flew out backwards.

Just when Zhao Chengzhi was about to catch up and crush the opponent's head with his palm, several masked men appeared again.

The opponents used their own methods to stop Zhao Chengzhi, and then rescued the original masked man.

Zhao Chengzhi had no intention of chasing him, but just stood there thoughtfully.

Until then, the imperial guards who were supposed to protect him arrived late.

Of course, he is a majestic master, so there is no need to be protected.

Zhao Chengzhi shook his head and disappeared directly in place.

In a restaurant in the city.

Ye Feng and Wu Gutu are observing the situation inside Tongtian Tower through a mirror through which the water vapor in the air condenses.

After the masked man failed to assassinate, Wu Gutu immediately waved his hand and wiped away the water mirror.

Ye Feng touched his chin and said, "This celestial master doesn't seem to be very strong."

Wu Gutu shook his head: "The opponent is just an incarnation of the Celestial Master, and even this incarnation didn't exert all its strength."

"Incarnation? Where is his body?"

"I don't know, maybe it's in Tianshi Mansion."

"The emperor asked him to be responsible for the construction of Tongtian Tower, but his body didn't show up?"

"Actually, the relationship between the two of them should be equal."

Wu Gutu realized this only after he came to the capital.

Meanwhile, inside the palace.

The emperor was a little curious: "Who is so bold, dare to assassinate you in the capital?"

The Taoist stroked his beard and said, "The other party used the secret spear technique of the Northern Qi royal family. It is very likely that it is a remnant of the Northern Qi Dynasty."

"The remnants of the Northern Qi Dynasty?"

The emperor frowned slightly: "They were not discovered?"

"Pindao felt the faint royal air from the other party."

The emperor's pupils shrank: "Is this true?"

"Your Majesty is doubting the feelings of the poor?"

"Of course not. The Celestial Master wouldn't suspect that I arranged this assassination?"

After all, he is the only one who has the ability to endow a remnant of the Northern Qi Dynasty with royal aura.

The Taoist was silent for a while, then suddenly chuckled: "How could it be?"

"Your Majesty knows that it's just an incarnation of me, and there's no point in sending someone to assassinate me."

"Pindao thinks that it is very likely that some people who were disloyal to His Majesty secretly practiced the secret books confiscated from the Northern Qi Palace."

The emperor nodded: "It should be like this, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."

The two smiled at each other and said nothing.

But they all knew that there were no secret books confiscated from the Northern Qi Palace.

After the Taoist left, the emperor's face suddenly darkened.

He knew that he was not the one who endowed the remnant of the Northern Qi Dynasty with royal aura, but he was not the only one who could endow him with a royal aura.

Of course, the celestial master is also possible, after all, the other party has never really regarded himself as a Dayang person.

A few days later, the Tongtian Tower was finally fully completed.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor announced to the world that he would break through the sky and ascend.

All the ministers were terrified when they heard the words: "What will Dayang do after His Majesty leaves?"

"Don't worry, I will always watch you, Dayang will continue to exist forever."

"Then... what about the Heavenly Master's Mansion?"

A minister said cautiously.

The emperor's face darkened slightly: "Are you trying to provoke the relationship between me and the Heavenly Master? Pull it down and cut it off!"

After the other party was dragged down, he continued: "I believe in the Heavenly Master, just as he believes in me."

"Dayang will survive, and I think Tianshi will guarantee this."

All the ministers agreed one after another.

On the other side, Longsnake Mountain Tianshi Mansion.

A young Taoist suddenly said: "Master, Li Zhen's actions are different from what we agreed at the beginning!"

"Did he change his mind?"

Zhao Chengzhi glanced at him and said lightly, "Do you want to be beheaded too?"

The young Taoist grinned and said, "Is Master willing?"

"How do you know I'm not willing?"

The young Taoist's face froze, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Li Zhen knows that Master is watching him, but he can't see here, can he?"

"Maybe."

The young Taoist hesitated for a while, and then said: "Master, Li Zhen is really not a celestial demon?"

Zhao Chengzhi was silent for a while and said, "I don't know."

"I don't know? Master, you still..."

Zhao Chengzhi sighed and said, "I cooperated with him at the beginning because it was beneficial to both of us."

"what about now?"

"It's still beneficial now, but..."

Zhao Chengzhi paused and said, "I don't know what the other party thinks."

A few days later, the Ascension Ceremony finally arrived.

After a series of tedious and solemn steps, Li Zhen finally climbed to the top of Tongtian Tower.

In fact, the real ceremony only begins now.

Li Zhen looked up at the night sky, as if he was communicating with some hidden existence.

At this moment, Zhao Chengzhi's figure suddenly appeared.

At the top of the entire tower, there are only the two of them at this moment.

Li Zhen bowed his head and said, "You are here."

Zhao Chengzhi nodded: "Your Majesty ascends, how can the poor Taoist not come to watch the ceremony?"

Li Zhen chuckled: "Is it the body or the incarnation?"

"The body or the incarnation, there is no difference for Pindao."

"That's right. So does the Heavenly Master have anything else to say?"

Zhao Chengzhi stroked his beard and said: "Poverty Taoist thought that the Heavenly Master's Mansion can continue to exist, and there is no need for Dayang."

Li Zhen's expression darkened: "Zhao Chengzhi, are you serious?"

"of course."

Li Zhen sneered and said, "I didn't expect that at this most critical step, the person I trust the most would actually betray me."

Zhao Chengzhi sighed and said, "Li Zhen, do you still remember why we cooperated in the first place?"

"Of course I remember, it is to wipe out those so-called true gods, so that there is no room for those alien demons to descend."

"Yeah, we almost succeeded. But now, I regret it a little."

Li Zhen frowned slightly: "Why?"

"Because I feel that you are becoming more and more like a celestial demon."

"You know I'm not."

Zhao Chengzhi nodded: "I know."

"But I have a hunch that if you take the last step here, then you will become a real demon."

"Then what do you want?"

"I think you should continue to be your emperor, don't do any ascension."

Li Zhen was silent for a long time, then suddenly laughed and said, "Give up?"

"Then why didn't you say it at the beginning? Why didn't you say it until the Tongtian Tower was built?"

"I think you want to use it yourself?"
