Alienated Martial Arts

A wisp of twigs and buds broke through the ice and snow and emerged from the cold hard surface.

Then it grew rapidly, bringing life to the neighborhood.

In this late night with the howling cold wind and heavy snowfall, it was as if a blessed land had been opened up in the Nine Sacred Mountains. Spring had already bloomed inside, which was in sharp contrast to the cold and cold surroundings and the silence of all things.

Quietly, a rustling sound was heard, and the buds began to branch out and branch out, turning into countless meandering transparent tentacles, which soon covered a wider area.

Immediately afterwards, a figure slowly emerged from the ground.

It's like a plant breaking out of the ground and sprouting, slowly stretching its slim body.

Behind her, there were other people repeating the same actions, and soon they completely occupied this small piece of "blessed land".

"Senior Gui's method of condensing Qi and concealing his body is really powerful."

"Not only did he hide it from King Qinglian and Lao Hong, but even Wei Daozi who appeared behind him couldn't find any clues."

Yunhong moved slightly, and all the foreign objects on his body disappeared without a trace. His clothes were as neat as new, and there was no trace of snow or dust.

She turned her head slightly and looked at the half of her body not far away that was missing two legs and had silky threads around her waist, with an unchanging and plain smile on her face.

"It's just a small trick that doesn't make it to the top. I don't deserve such praise from Yunhong Daozi."

Gui Shufang stared at the direction in which Wei Tao disappeared, and sighed with emotion, "Compared to Qinglin Mountain Wei Daozi's amazing talent and terrifying cultivation progress, this little ability of mine is nothing.

I thought that my exhaustive thinking, hard pursuit, and decades of planning and accumulation could not compare with the improvement in his understanding after the first battle, which made people involuntarily feel discouraged. "

Yun Hong was not surprised at all, and still had a calm and indifferent expression, "In the Taixuan Mountain sect competition, Wei Daozi is recognized as the number one disciple of the seven sects, and this achievement is also expected.

Just like Senior Sister Sun at the time, the so-called extraordinary people do extraordinary things, which may be unparalleled in our eyes, but to them they are nothing more than an ordinary afternoon nap. "

"He is different from Sun Xiyue."

Gui Shufang slowly shook his head, "Sun Daozi is indeed amazingly talented and beautiful, and her appearance is like a celestial being. It is not something that ordinary people can imagine, but from my shallow perspective, her trajectory along the way There are still traces to follow.

If I were to follow the path she took over again, although the greatest possibility would be to fail halfway through and there would be no way to reach the same level as she did, I would still be able to roughly understand the main thread of it. "

After a pause, Gui Shufang's voice suddenly became confused, even a little uncontrollably confused.

"However, since I first came into contact with Wei Daozi at the Luoshui gold tanning field, I have had contact with him several times since then, but I can't understand at all how he managed to cross the border in such a short period of time. The two thresholds of the interaction between heaven and man and the birth of Yin and Yang have made the master of Yang pole horizontal training.

I almost forgot that he is now not only practicing the Yin and Yang of the Secret Diamond Technique, but also practicing Xuanwu Lingming Wuji to the level of interaction between heaven and man, which is more than one level more difficult than the simple Yang pole training. "

“What’s even more incomprehensible to me is the true meaning of Xuanwu he displayed, and the true meaning of other martial arts that Master Luo sensed when fighting him.

After all, manpower is limited but the world is infinite. No matter how strong the talent and qualifications of a warrior are, they still have their own personal limits. It is difficult to break the barrier no matter what, but this does not seem to exist in them.

It's like he has no limits at all, and all the techniques he practices can penetrate the barrier and reach a high level of breaking limits. "

Yunhong thought silently, and when he spoke again, his voice suddenly became more layered, "So in Senior Gui's view, is there a possibility that Wei Daozi is not actually a human being?"

"not human……"

Gui Shufang frowned, thinking carefully for a long time, and finally shook his head slowly.

“If an animal looks like a tiger, sounds like a tiger, and all its movements and habits are the same as those of other tigers, then it is a tiger.

So it's the same as a human being. No matter how you look at it, Wei Daozi is just a person. Even if he manifests some different traits because of his practice of Xuanwu True Interpretation, they are not other inhuman creatures. "

"In addition, in order to bring the mysterious threads back to the world, I took advantage of my position as the Minister of Pilgrimage and Counselor of the Tianji Mansion to browse through a large number of secret books and researched all the ancient legends and myths in detail.

The content inside is full of curiosity, but there has never been the same description as Wei Daozi, so Yunhong Daozi's guess is still not accurate. "

When the two of them said this, they suddenly shut up at the same time.

They all turned their heads and looked in the direction of Mianlong Town.

Gui Shu imitated, "It seems that the winner has been decided in their confrontation, and it's time for us to leave."

Yun Hong asked, "In Senior Gui's eyes, what will be the outcome of the battle in Mianlong Town?"

"I don't know, so I don't dare to speak nonsense."

Gui Shufang thought slowly and said, "If it was the Emperor Wu during his lifetime, as long as he decided to kill, then one of them would count, no matter it was the cathode or the anode, or even the great master of the Dharma Realm, any warrior who came to the Nine Sacred Mountains would definitely There is no escape.

But now it’s a bit hard to say.

The Lord of the Golden Account carries the spiritual spirit of Brahma and is integrated with it, which is not comparable to ordinary Dharma realm masters.

Master Xuanwu incorporated the turtle and snake fragments into his own body, and also had the ability to resist divine will.

Sun Xiyue, on the other hand, was invisible and could partially hide her traces even in the face of divine will.

If the three of them attack with all their strength, I really don’t know what the outcome will be.

After all, Emperor Wu's true spirit was extinct, and at most there was only a trace of obsession left. The divine will he used to fight against the enemy was in no way comparable to his own cultivation skills. "

Yun Hong added, "Senior Gui is going to make arrangements next. We are going to go to the Nine Saints Gate and take a look at the mountain chronicles written by the Nine Saints' successors."

"I advise Yun Daozi not to go."

"Oh? Although we have never been there before, we also know that the strongest person in the Nine Saint Sect is just the sect leader, a Yin Ji Grandmaster. But according to Senior Gui, there is also a Yin Ji Yang Yang Grand Master hidden in the Nine Saint Sect?"

Gui Shufang shook his head, "It's not that there is a great master above the anode, but there may be unexpected dangerous situations."

He glanced at the figures behind Yun Hong and said, "Even if you have the Qinglian Saint and the Xuanwu Grandmaster, you may not be able to escape unscathed."

"What kind of danger does Senior Gui say?"

"God's will appears, and the world is in chaos."

Gui Shufang said slowly, "What Emperor Wu said during his lifetime was not specifically about the Northern Wasteland, but it had a deeper meaning.

It would be fine to visit the Nine Saint Gate before God's will appeared and before Emperor Wu arose, but now that God's will has appeared, it may no longer be safe there. "

Sighing, his voice suddenly became a little emotional, "Although Emperor Wu quickly fell into madness after returning from the extreme northern ice sea, he had a lot of profound thoughts about the arrangements for his posthumous affairs.

Just like why he was not buried in the Imperial Tomb of the Great Zhou Dynasty instead of choosing to be buried in the Nine Sacred Mountains. Does Daozi know the reason? "

Yun Hong shook his head, and everyone behind him shook his head at the same time, "None of us are old people from Emperor Wu's time, so naturally we don't know what the old man's meaning was at that time."

"You don't know, and neither do I."

Gui Shufang's answer was somewhat unexpected, "Emperor Wu buried himself in the Nine Sacred Mountains. Even I didn't know about it until I woke up this time, and I was deeply surprised and confused.

After all, before this, I had always thought that his old man was in the Great Zhou Emperor's Mausoleum, and at most his body was immortalized and hidden in the Great Inner Palace as a final arrangement to protect the Wu family royal family. "

"But I thought about it for a long time tonight, and suddenly I figured out something."

Gui Shufang lowered his head and said slowly in thought, "Emperor Wu buried himself in the Nine Sacred Mountains and did not want to rest in the Imperial Tomb of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was not because he felt ashamed of his ancestors, but there may be two reasons."

"The first reason is that the Nine Sacred Mountains are located in the southern border of Qizhou, relatively close to the Northern Wasteland, but not too far north. It is a suitable place to welcome the gods and monitor Brahma.

There is also a second reason. When Emperor Wu broke through the Golden Tent in the Northern Wilderness and destroyed the will of Brahma, a natural disaster suddenly appeared in the Nine Sacred Mountains. He sent his most trusted Shadow Attendant and others to investigate, but in the end there was no explanation or conclusion. record on file.

Combining the two events, it can be seen that at least before the Northern Wilderness War ended a hundred years ago, Emperor Wu had already made detailed arrangements for his death, and then he lay in this desolate land for a hundred years, and it was not until today that he followed Divine will appears and returns to the world. "

Yunhong listened carefully and thought silently, "The Nine Saints Gate is inherited from the descendants of the Nine Saints. The legendary Nine Saints live in seclusion in this mountain. That's why Senior Gui believes that the Nine Saints Gate is not a good place and it is best to stay away."

Gui Shufang smiled slightly, "For me, Head Luo was beaten so hard by Qinglin Mountain Wei Daozi that his legs were broken and his strength dropped by more than half. Therefore, we must avoid all possible dangers to avoid being trapped in it. Save yourself.

Of course this is just a guess on my part and does not mean that this should be the case.

Yunhong Daozi can also go and investigate further. Maybe nothing will happen, or there may be a great opportunity instead of the danger I thought. "

…………

……………………

The clouds were low and gathering.

After leaving the Nine Sacred Mountains, the weather seemed to get worse.

Although it was already dawn, it was still dark and gloomy, without a trace of light.

A bigger snowstorm is brewing, and it will sweep across the entire world at some point, shrouding everything in the depths of white ice and snow.

Two figures walked quickly in the wilderness.

The wind and snow were getting bigger and bigger, but it couldn't affect them at all.

No matter how ghosts and wolves howled in the distance, they were still unable to get close to the two of them. The area a few feet around them was completely calm.

"Senior Hong's Guixu performance is indeed brilliant. If it doesn't suit your wishes, even the wind and snow won't be able to enter."

Wei Tao gently exhaled a breath of turbid air and praised sincerely, "It reminds me of an old lie from a long time ago, which said that wind can enter, snow can enter, but the emperor cannot."

He does not mean that.

Hong Shunwei had countless thoughts and ideas in his mind instantly.

He immediately replied respectfully, "This old slave's loyalty to the young master can be seen from heaven, and there is absolutely no deception."

Wei Tao looked at him with a half-smile but said, "Senior Hong, you don't need to be so nervous. It doesn't matter even if you really lied. At most, it will make me a little disappointed. I will lament that I don't know people well and have no eyesight, and then I will beat you to death." ."

Hong Shun suddenly shuddered, as if he opened his mouth to say something more, but his lips moved but he couldn't say anything after all.

Wei Tao didn't care about this and casually changed the subject, "Senior Hong is familiar with the old master of the Nine Saints Sect and said he would take me there to temporarily escape the power of Emperor Wu. By the way, I asked them if they knew about the Imperial Tomb of the Nine Saints Mountain. How far is it now?"

Although the weather was extremely cold, his whole body was radiating blazing heat, like a blazing human-shaped stove.

These were all the effects of the elixir Great Return Pill, which greatly alleviated his hunger when he arrived as scheduled.

However, to ensure safety, Wei Tao crushed each pill in half. This caused Hong Shunwei to overdose on the pills, but he was still quite dissatisfied with his desires.

Only then, following Hong Shun's suggestion, was he ready to go to the Nine Saint Gate.

However, his main purpose was not other than to ask for alms and have a simple meal.

After filling the huge deficit caused by breaking the limit of 100 levels in the Turtle Snake Crossing, we can continue to improve the skills.

There are more than thirty gold coins in the status bar.

Every time he thought about having such a huge sum of money and not being able to use it, Wei Tao's heart burned with rage, as uncomfortable as a cat scratching him. He wished he could enter the Nine Saint Sect in the next second and borrow some of their medicinal pills to replenish himself.

Hong Shunwei roughly estimated the distance, "If we go back to Young Master, at our current speed, it will take more than an hour at most to reach the Nine Saint Gate."

"It will take more than an hour."

Wei Tao calmed down and slowly exhaled a breath, "Then it's best to go faster, because I don't have much patience anymore."

Suddenly, he stopped without warning and looked to one side.

Hong Shun's brows furrowed and he almost turned his head, his eyes falling on the same place.

It was empty there, not a soul in sight.

boom!

The wind and snow surged, and the fists surged.

Without any hesitation or hesitation, Wei Tao forced away the wind and snow with one punch, clearing the vast wilderness in an instant.

However, the punch was empty and had no force.

He followed the feeling in his heart, and the attack clearly covered a large area, but in the end it failed.

After one punch, Wei Tao suddenly changed from extreme movement to extreme stillness.

His eyes penetrated the vast snow that had fallen again, and he slowly looked around, in front, behind, and left.

Not seen, not heard, not touched?

Such an idea flashed through his mind, but was immediately denied by himself.

Sun Xiyue's indifference was not the feeling.

So, who is it?

The next moment, the old eunuch in red robe who only appeared for a moment in Mianlong Town and then disappeared came to mind.

Thinking of this, Wei Tao sighed, "I haven't noticed it yet, hasn't Senior Hong noticed it either?"

Hong Shunwei bowed slightly, "The pursuer should be Young Master Ying who has been serving Emperor Wu. The old slave only became alert after Young Master reacted.

As the name suggests, the skill practiced by Mr. Ying is called Like a Shadow, and once it is performed, it is like walking in the shadows, and even the Yangji Grandmaster's interaction between heaven and man will be deceived. "

Wei Tao nodded and took action again without any warning.

In an instant, he covered a distance of more than ten feet and leveled a large bush.

However, this attack still achieved nothing.

He didn't catch a piece of the old eunuch's clothes.

At this moment, his eyes suddenly froze.

Seeing the snowflakes flying in front of me, they separated silently and turned into two completely symmetrical pieces.

Click!

There seemed to be a soft sound that swayed directly in his heart.

However, when he looked carefully, he heard nothing.

The only sound is the whistling wind, passing through the wilderness.

Wei Tao held his breath and concentrated, raised his hand and touched his neck.

There was an inexplicable itchiness there, as if a hair had been lightly brushed against it.

A very shallow trace was left.

He was suddenly a little irritable.

An enemy that follows you everywhere but is hard to see.

There was no aura fluctuation, and the attack landed on him without anyone noticing.

It wasn't Sun Xiyue's indifference, but it was just as troublesome and annoying as his indifference.

If it weren't for the yin and yang's horizontal training body, coupled with the turtle-snake cross that broke the limit of 100 levels, just this one blow would have probably cut off his head.

Instead of being like now, not even a bleeding wound could be cut.

Not far away, Hong Shun's heart skipped a beat, and a thin layer of cold sweat even broke out on his forehead.

He is not a great master of yin and yang who can simply turn a blind eye to attacks of this level.

If Eunuch Ying had just chosen him as the target of his attack, the consequences would have been disastrous. Even if he didn't die, he would still be injured.

Without any hesitation, Hong Shunyu immediately gathered his spirit into one place and merged his power into one body. Regardless of the consumption, he returned to the virtual performance method to repel all other foreign objects around him.

Click!

There was another soft sound that may or may not exist.

Wei Tao scratched the left side of his cheek and glanced past Hong Chongfeng, who was facing a formidable enemy, and continued to look for Eunuch Ying who was always following him.

After a few breaths, there was a sudden stabbing sound and a crackling sound.

The silence, except for the sound of the wind, was suddenly broken.

Wei Tao slowly lowered his head, looking at the tear in the black robe he was wearing, and anger suddenly rose in his heart.

boom!

Without warning, darkness descended suddenly at this time.

Centered around his body, the wind suddenly stopped and the snow stopped, creating a deathly dull silence.

Countless scarlet threads came out of the body, growing crazily and spreading in all directions.

Immediately afterwards, dense mist rose, covering everything.

However, the perception was still empty, and no trace related to divine will was found.

Wei Tao frowned, with a more solemn expression on his face.

If the opponent's traces can be found, the battle may be over in less than one breath.

But what lies before us now is an invisible and intangible problem.

More importantly, Eunuch Ying is most likely the spy of Emperor Wu.

If we continue to delay, we may wait for Emperor Wu to appear.

Wei Tao closed his eyes and recalled the whole process of Sun Xiyue and Mr. Ying's fight, looking for possible flaws in the other party.

Stab!

The black robe was cut open again.

Then comes the third and fourth lanes.

Soon it turned into strands of cloth.

Wei Tao took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

Suddenly some enlightenment flashed through my heart.

"I generally understand."

"What Hong Shunyu said just now is right, even Master Yang Ji's interaction between heaven and man will be deceived.

Therefore, the Shadow Father-in-law is always with me, affecting my perception from beginning to end, so I cannot see, hear or touch it. "

"Then, there is a way to try to break through his shadow-following method."

Wei Tao suddenly sighed secretly.

If he was just facing a shadow father-in-law, he would rather spend time with him like this to see who can last longer.

Instead of taking the initiative with the method you just thought of.

However, Eunuch Ying is the servant of Emperor Wu. If they can exchange information, then he will be in an extremely dangerous situation.

It must be resolved as quickly as possible and then stay away from this place immediately.

Thinking of this, Wei Tao closed his eyes instead.

The whole person suddenly became a little different at this moment.

Not far away, Hong Shunqi suddenly became excited.

Subconsciously, he looked in the direction of Wei Tao.

In his perception, the darkness not far away suddenly stopped surging.

What replaced it was the palpitating desire to die.

There is also a great terror that swallows up all life and overflows from the deepest part of the darkness.

Gudong!

Hong Shun's throat surged, and he stared blankly at the figure submerged in darkness, and suddenly the face of Taoist Master Xuanwu flashed in his mind.

Recalling the fear of being dominated by Taoist Master Xuanwu before going to Mianlong Town.

But in the next moment, even the figure of Master Xuanwu disappeared without a trace.

A greater fear quietly rose from the bottom of my heart.

Hong Shunyu knew that after being defeated twice in succession, a rift had appeared in his state of mind, which was why he was so greatly affected.

However, he could not control himself, let alone get rid of this influence, he could only let it completely envelope his mind.

"He's still not a human being. If not, what is he?"

"Xuan, Xuanwu..."

"I actually saw Xuanwu with my own eyes!"

"He is Xuanwu, Xuanwu is him!"

boom!

The darkness suddenly resumed its surge.

There was also a looming red-robed figure staggering back.

Immediately afterwards, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up and were firmly fixed on the withered and twisted body.

Boom! ! !

Suddenly a thunder exploded.

Two figures suddenly collided in the depths of the wind and snow.

In Hong Shun's eyes, he only saw Eunuch Ying, who was dressed in red and robed, being held by his neck, pinned to the ground and hurtling backwards.

Along the way, the silt and snow exploded violently, smashing countless boulders until a straight trench more than a hundred feet long was left in the wilderness. Only then did the storm dissipate and finally stop.

Not long after, a figure in red clothes came slowly.

Hong Shunyu only saw those scarlet eyes, and suddenly felt a great fear welling up in his heart.

In his perception, it was not a person approaching, but a corpse full of death and devouring life, turtles and snakes intertwined, occupying all the sight, and even about to cover him up.

Unconsciously, he knelt down again and touched his head to the ground without daring to speak.

"Although I put on Eunuch Ying's red robe, I'm not him. Why is Senior Hong still so scared?"

Wei Tao stopped a few feet away. After a moment of silence, he sighed again, "I see, but Mr. Hong still doesn't need to be afraid. After all, I can still tell clearly now that I am not a tortoise and snake intertwined Xuanwu corpse." .

Even if you can't tell the difference in the future, you will still be the Zhenwu Emperor who steps on turtles and snakes. "
