Pawn Crossing the River

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were flying in mid-air when they saw billowing black fog suddenly appearing in the direction of Zhenwu Lake, and then quickly spreading outwards. The thunderclouds in the sky also expanded to the entire Jinling Mansion. Qi Xuansu felt a little bored, and his heart rose. Having an ominous premonition.

The purple energy in Zhang Yuelu's eyes flickered, like a candle in the wind. Her tone became heavier: "It is indeed a 'divine descent'."

"'God descends'?" Qi Xuansu asked.

He knew what "divine descent" was, but he just wasn't sure what kind of "divine descent" the scene in front of him was.

Zhang Yuelu also knew various secrets of the ancient immortal, so she roughly told Qi Xuansu what she knew.

Fortunately in the misfortune, when God descends, he will also break the ban on Jinling Mansion, making it no longer a closed and isolated city, just like the top lid of a closed jar is opened, and the Taoist reinforcements will arrive at a faster speed.

Qi Xuansu understood that the curses spread by the demons of Zhiming Cult were just a cover-up. After thinking about it, they also understood that no matter how hard Jinling Mansion defended the void, as an important town in the southeast, it still had enough power to eliminate these curses and prevent them from causing a catastrophe. In fact, starting from Shuitang Workshop, Taoism did initially restrict the spread of "gifts". Therefore, the fundamental purpose of the Zhiming Sect is to carry out a 'divine descent', allowing Lord Siming to descend directly into the city of Jinling Mansion. This would be extremely fatal to Jinling Mansion, which lacks the presence of heavenly beings to guard it.

Zhang Yuelu said softly: "Tianyuan, you go back to the Shuitang workshop and wait for help. I'll go over and take a look. Senior sister and the others should have arrived."

Qi Xuansu refused directly and said, "I'd rather go with you."

Zhang Yuelu was not surprised by Qi Xuansu's answer. After all, Qi Xuansu had already proven how he would choose with actual actions, and Zhang Yuelu also understood Qi Xuansu. This guy was somewhat soft-spoken, so she softened her tone and said: " Some people think that it is good to do what you can, but it is better to do everything you can without caring about your own life. It seems that there is no reason to express the sincerity of emotion, Tianyuan, don't be emotional. "

Qi Xuansu shook his head and said: "I'm not acting out of impulse. I don't want to impress myself. I also know my priorities. I'm not the kind of mother-in-law or mother-in-law. In terms of life-and-death experience, you are not as good as me. I accompany you there for my own reasons."

Zhang Yuelu looked at Qi Xuansu intently.

Qi Xuansu looked at Zhang Yuelu without hesitation.

As he said himself, he is not the kind of mother-in-law person who says, "If you leave quickly, I won't leave." When it comes to the experience of life and death, Zhang Yuelu is far inferior to him, and he is not a person who just takes orders. Zhang Yuelu said Yes, he will naturally not object or force himself to make the decision, but if he feels that Zhang Yuelu is wrong, then he will object.

As for his confidence, it is exactly what Zhang Yuelu mentioned. The Jinling Mansion at this time is like a closed jar, but when the gods descend, the lid of this "jar" must be opened to allow Zhenjun Siming to enter. At that time, Jinling Mansion was no longer isolated from the inside and outside.

In other words, Qi Xuansu can use the yin energy in the city to open the cave of the ghost kingdom at this time, and invite the three major yin objects to take action. Even if the three major yin objects are not opponents of Zhenjun Siming, it should not be difficult to save him and Zhang Yuelu. .

But for this reason, Qi Xuansu couldn't tell Zhang Yuelu clearly and had to think of an excuse.

Zhang Yuelu did not get angry, but reflected briefly.

She was wondering if she was a little self-righteous this time. It is true that Qi Xuansu is inferior to her in many aspects, but Qi Xuansu also has his strengths. Moreover, the two of them had fought each other before. Outside Jiangling Mansion, although she successfully found Wei Wugui disguised as Qi Xuansu, she almost capsized in the gutter and fell into Qi Xuansu's hands. All in all, Qi Xuansu is not a towering tree that shields her from the wind and rain, but he is not a child who needs to be blocked by her either.

The two should be companions walking side by side, isn't this what she wants?

After thinking about this, Zhang Yuelu did not ask Qi Xuansu what his reasoning was, and said directly: "Okay, let's go there together."

Qi Xuansu was startled. He didn't expect Zhang Yuelu to be so easy to talk to. The excuse he had been thinking about for a long time just turned out to be useless.

After saying that, Zhang Yuelu lowered his body and walked forward instead.

Qi Xuansu quickly followed and fell back to the ground.

The closer it gets to Zhenwu Lake, the more dense and terrifying the thunder and fire becomes. It is not a wise choice to fly by in the air.

At this time, Zhenwu Lake is no longer Zhenwu Lake.

The entire Zhenwu Lake gradually rose above the embankment, and black and white light burst out from the huge ice crystals. The patterns of black moon and white sun began to rotate, and countless Yin Qi escaped from it. If the foul Qi used by Sikong Cuo and others was just corrosive Flesh and blood, then these Yin Qi can corrode the Yang world. When it reaches the extreme, it can even corrode a crack in the human world to communicate with the underworld.

Lightning and skyfire continued to fall from the thunderclouds above, illuminating the entire sky in a purple-red color. These thunderfires were not attacks, but seemed to be a celebration.

Even though Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were still some distance away, they could clearly see huge ice crystals rising, like a suspended island made entirely of ice.

What a power this is.

At this moment, there was a roar between heaven and earth, and it seemed that the entire Jinling Mansion was shaken three times. The ground shook violently, cracks and gaps appeared, and they continued to open outwards. The trees and walls collapsed where they walked, and smoke and dust were everywhere. Ming. Many people suffered as a result, and screams and cries could not be heard for a while.

It’s just that Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu can’t care about this for the time being. The key now is the Lord Siming who is coming to the world over there. If this ancient immortal succeeds in coming to the world, I am afraid that the entire Jinling Mansion will not be saved.

Because Dabaoen Temple is located in the south of the city and Zhenwu Temple is located in the west, Zhang Yuelu and Qi Xuansu did not pass by the ruins of Zhenwu Temple, but came directly from the south to the shore of Zhenwu Lake not far away.

Zhenwu Lake dried up completely, and all the lake water turned into ice and rose into the sky.

Then the ice island began to shatter from the edge, from the outside in. The debris did not turn back into the lake water, but just dissipated. It seemed that all the spiritual energy had been absorbed, and then a figure slowly appeared in the world, growing from small to large.

At first it was only the size of an ordinary baby, then it was the size of a teenager, then it was the size of an adult, then it was the size of a Buddha statue, and finally it was as high as a glazed pagoda, standing tall in the sky and on the ground.

This figure is wearing a black twelve-chapter suit, that is, an imperial crown suit embroidered with twelve patterns, namely: sun, moon, stars, mountain, dragon, Chinese insect, Zongyi, algae, fire, pink rice, and 黼,embroidery. Wearing a flat crown on the head, tied with white jade beads as twelve strands.

"Is that Lord Siming?" Qi Xuansu looked up.

"Yes." Zhang Yuelu nodded and said, "It is very similar to the portrait of True Lord Siming circulated within the Taoist sect. Among the ancient immortals, Wuluo is still the image of an ancient witch from the ancient witch sect, while True Lord Siming is dressed as an emperor, which means He is the Nether Emperor."

Obviously, Siming Zhenjun has the ability to change the shape of the container at will. The container did not turn into a strange fish with tentacle wings, but a very majestic image of an emperor. This is also very consistent with the Central Plains people's imagination of gods. Based on the concept of heavenly principles of the Confucian school of Neo-Confucianism, the gods of heaven are regarded as God. Most people in the Central Plains regard gods as gods. Heaven is God, God is heaven, and the emperor is the son of heaven. How can any son be unlike Lao Tzu? God is what a natural emperor is like.

Because the bead curtain obscured his face, he couldn't see clearly what Lord Siming looked like. He could only see a chin with a short beard that was slightly upturned, like a knife.

This made Qi Xuansu know that Lord Siming was a man and Wu Luo was a woman. He had now seen the true faces of the two ancient immortals.

At this moment, Lord Siming seemed to feel Qi Xuansu's gaze. He clearly didn't make any move, nor did he turn his head. He was still facing Qi Xuansu sideways, but Qi Xuansu felt as if he was facing off against this ancient immortal. In his sight, two eyes appeared in front of him, one reflected the day and the other reflected the black moon. Suddenly, there was a bang in his head, his ears buzzed, his vision went dark, and two lines of blood flowed from his nose.

He felt an icy coldness invade his body again, spreading in all directions, seizing control of his body and trying to forcibly seize his body.

Qi Xuansu was startled and did not dare to be careless. He hurriedly circulated the inner energy in his body to resist with all his strength, which made the coldness pause. Then he felt a stream of heat welling up in his secondary heart, completely dispelling the coldness.

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but feel a little scared. As expected of an ancient immortal, he almost killed him without even looking at him. No wonder Zhang Yuelu didn't let him follow.
