Pawn Crossing the River

There are no pupils visible in the eyes of Master Qingwei, only the endless starry sky is left, in which the stars are disillusioned and the stars are shifting. The "Blood Shang Jue Immortal Sword" in his hand moves forward a little, like a chess player making a move.

The stars are dotted.

A vast starry sky is outlined behind the sky full of fire clouds.

The "stars" are constantly changing their positions, seemingly without rules, but wherever they go, the light fades and even the sound becomes silent. ..

If it were just like this, it would be nothing special. A pseudo-immortal could do it, but it would not be enough to show the power of an immortal.

What really surprised Tamamo Mae was that the scope of the starry sky transformed by the sword formation continued to expand, even including her spells.

During the Battle of Wuxing Mountain, Qiniang once exiled the "East Master" to the East China Sea.

Qingwei Zhenren goes one step further.

Ordinary people use "Xingluo Sword Formation" and just use "Xingzhuan Dou Shi" to move positions within the scope of the sword formation. However, Qingwei Master uses "Xing Luo Dou Shi" to move the entire "Xing Luo Sword Formation". Walk.

Unexpectedly, the "Star Sword Formation" included the fire rain summoned by Tamamo Mae.

In an instant, a huge blank appeared in the rain of fire in the sky. The fire rain in the main core position completely disappeared, leaving only a few flames in the corners that were unable to fall.

The next moment, a huge fire rain appeared over the East China Sea. Huge meteors burning with flames fell into the sea water, burning mountains and boiling the sea. The sea water boiled and billowing water vapor rose up into the sky, forming a foggy mountain.

Tamamo Mae could not see this scene. Looking around, the surrounding stars were of distinct colors, only black and white. They were like chess pieces arranged on a chessboard. The burning flames seemed to be in the extremely distant horizon. There were tens of millions of miles between the two sides. Inside, otherwise it was pitch black, empty and misty, almost the same as the real starry sky.

Suddenly, the sword formation changed, and everything except the stars completely disappeared. There was no sky, no earth, and no summoned fire rain. Everything outside the sword formation was beyond perception, only countless stars arrayed in it.

Immediately afterwards, the stars in the sky rolled back.

In an instant, Tamamo Mae was unable to distinguish between front, back, left, right, up and down, and his figure rotated along with the nebula, moving even if he did not move.

Tamamo Mae wanted to try to stop this change, but found that he couldn't shake the formation at all. Master Qingwei trapped Tamamo in front of him with the "Xingluo Sword Formation", and then moved the sword formation, just like putting Tamamo in a carriage to go to other places. Tamamo was in the carriage but wanted to lift it up. No matter how strong she was, she couldn't.

Tamamo Mae immediately understood this truth and no longer tried to prevent the formation from changing, but instead directly attacked the formation itself.

She was in the carriage and was not the one driving the carriage. Naturally, she could not stop the carriage, but it should not be difficult to destroy the carriage and jump out of the carriage halfway.

The seven fox tails behind Tamamo were like a peacock spreading its wings, swaying unsteadily, sweeping and vibrating in all directions.

The stars in the sky shook and shook. Not only that, Fox Fire even passed through the stars and came to the front of Master Qingwei.

Master Qingwei just waved his sleeves and moved the fox fire to other places through the changes in the galaxy. At the same time, he launched a counterattack. Countless stars twinkled, stimulating the sword energy. The stars fell like rain, and they were chaotic, shooting densely in front of Tamamo from all directions.

Tamamo Mae knew that he could not avoid being hit by the all-encompassing sword energy, so he had no choice but to guard his entire body tightly. Countless sword energies fell on her body. To Tamamo Mae's surprise, none of them could break through her protective fox fire. Not only were these sword energies not powerful, they were so weak that they could be ignored. .

But the strange thing is that when the sword energy fell on Tamamo Mae, it didn't disappear immediately, it condensed but never dispersed.

In the blink of an eye, more than a thousand swords fell from the sword formation, and countless starlight sword auras appeared around Tamamo-sen's body. These sword auras pressed down on Tamamo-mae's body layer by layer, making her feel like a heavy mountain.

Tamamo was shocked to realize that something was wrong, but it was too late and there was nothing he could do.

At this moment, Master Qingwei appeared in front of Tamamo Mae with a "Xingzhuandou Shi" and slashed his head with a sword.

Tamamo Mae had no choice but to close the folding fan in her hand and block it.

The two struck each other, and countless sword energies burst out and dispersed wildly.

Master Qingwei disappeared.

At the same time, the sword formation was activated again, and countless sword shadows fell down like a gust of wind and rain.

Tamamo Mae suddenly raised his head, and the next moment he was completely drowned by the rain of swords falling from the sky.

After the sword rain submerged the figure in front of Tamamo, it began to pile up layer upon layer, and a mountain of swords appeared out of thin air.

However, Jianshan could not maintain it for too long. At first, Jianshan remained motionless, and gradually began to shake visible to the naked eye. Then the shaking became larger and larger, and the entire Jianshan began to tremble violently. In the end, the entire sword mountain exploded with a bang, and the layers of sword shadows continued to make mournful sounds and then disappeared one after another.

Tamamo Mae escaped from the trap, but she was in a very embarrassed state, her hair was disheveled, her clothes were torn, and her youth was leaking out.

Almost at the same time, the "Xue Chang Jue Immortal Sword" pierced Tamamo Mae's heart as fast as a thunderbolt.

Tamamo Mae held the "Xue Shang Jue Immortal Sword" between the lightning and flints, and the palm of his hand was bloody and bloody.

The edge of the "Xueshang Juesian Sword" was less than a foot away from Tamamo Mae's heart, and the wisps of sword energy touched Tamamo Mae's chest like a snake's letter.

Under the blow of the sword energy, Tamamo's hair was fluttering wildly.

Blood stains suddenly spread on Tamamo Mae's chest.

If Tamamo-mae was in its heyday, it wouldn't be like this. Unfortunately, Tamamo-mae is in a very strange state at this time. Even if it can avoid the catastrophe, its strength will be greatly reduced. After meeting Qingwei Zhenren, who has the strength of an immortal, it is reasonable to fall into a disadvantage.

Master Qingwei spoke again: "In front of Tamamo, you were killed by the 'Yata Mirror', and now you are back from the dead. I guess you are not willing to be driven by Tianmen. How can I get you out of Tianmen's control?"

Tamamo's lips moved slightly and her eyes were complicated.

On the other side, after Master Qingwei moved Tamamo Mae, the Omikami Mountain saw light again, and the black clouds above were burned away. The earth was devastated, full of scorch marks, and the ground was even covered with a layer of snow-white ashes.

This is the power of immortal fighting.

This was also the foresight of Heimiya Xizi. She allowed the Ise Shrine to sink into the mountainside in advance and just escaped disaster. If Ise Shrine had not sunk into the heart of the mountain, even if it had formations to block it, it would still be completely consumed.

The key to this war lies in Ise Shrine. If Daomen captures or destroys Ise Shrine, the symbolic significance will be very important. Not to mention the neutral faction who are sitting on the wall, there will be huge pessimism within the Zunbang faction. Emotions, even derived from the voice of surrender. After all, even the Tianmen Ancestral Court can't be defended, so why talk about fighting the road? Isn't it just an idiot's dream?

There is also the defection of the neutral faction. The so-called neutral faction, in a nutshell, will fall in whichever direction the wind blows, and they will help whoever wins. In their view, the fall of Ise Shrine means that the winner has been decided. When it is time to add icing on the cake, if it is later, the credit will be greatly reduced, and it will be nothing more than a fault.

Once the neutral faction defectes, the Zunban faction is divided internally, and the voice of surrender becomes louder, a trend will be formed. This is also a human aspiration.

As the saying goes, when the wall falls and everyone pushes against it, if your confidence collapses, you will collapse thousands of miles without any ability to fight back.

The Taoist sect understood this truth, so they gathered the alchemist camp, forcibly opened a cave passage directly into the mountain, and pressed the four most outstanding disciples of the eighth generation up in one breath, which was sure to win.

At the same time, it also has another meaning. These young people have risen quickly and are bound to be criticized. So the more critical the moment comes, the more important it is to send them up.

Just imagine, it won't work if you are usually slow to get promoted and only think of others when something happens. As soon as a major event occurs, he takes control of this army or that continent, and then stands aside when the time comes to elect a great leader. No one can accept this. The same principle applies to other positions. It cannot be that I will do meritorious service and you will die. That would be extremely damaging to morale.

If you always play this kind of routine, the damage to its overall atmosphere will be immeasurable. Over time, there will be no more people to do things, and the decay of the entire organization will be greatly accelerated.

People will naturally ask: "When you have nothing to do and you are dying, you think of me. Where is I when you have nothing to eat meat?"

So this time, the Imperial Master personally made the decision to send these four young people to the most critical places, including Li Changge. We cannot let these four people sit back and enjoy the credit. We are here to fight, not to gild.

Regarding this point, it can be regarded as a fine tradition of the Taoist sect. The great masters of the past dynasties rose to the position based on merit. It may not necessarily be based on military merit, but they must have experienced war.

The two popular candidates vying for the title of Grand Master this time, Donghua Zhenren represented Quanzhen Taoism and presided over and participated in the war in the Western Regions. This is also the tradition of the Taoist sect. The specific command is taken by the spiritual officer, but the overall strategic planning must be done by the Taoist priests. Master Qingwei is now presiding over the larger-scale Fenglinzhou war on behalf of Taiping Dao.

Even the weakest Sixth Generation Grand Master cannot be explained by more than just a good old man. He once performed outstandingly in the war against Buddhism. As for being ignored later, it can only be said that external and internal affairs are two different things. Since ancient times, Since then, it is not uncommon for generals who have been galloping around the battlefield to eventually be defeated in the temple.

As for why Li Tiangang and others were not sent over, it was because they had a mission. Including the real person in charge and the three first-grade spiritual officers, they needed to block the reinforcements. After all, there were so many shrines in Tianmen and the royal family in Pingjing. Last time, we surrounded a point for reinforcements, but this time we actually blocked the reinforcements, mainly with high-end combat power. After all, it would be difficult for an ordinary army to reach Ise controlled by Daomen in a short period of time without a flying boat, so they could only rush for reinforcements with a small number of high-end combat forces at the level of heaven and human beings.

The Taoist sect is not fully suppressed, and there are only a few Zhenzhi Zhenren and Zhangda Zhenren who have personally died. If you count them down, they are Qi, Zhang, Li, and Yao.
