Changsheng: My qualifications improve a little bit every day

It was a mysterious man shrouded in black robes. The black robes were faintly embroidered with some strange and eerie runes, as if they were constantly exuding dark magic.

This man was standing in an abandoned ancient house. The ancient house was surrounded by thick black fog. The black fog seemed to be alive, constantly rolling and surging, shrouding everything around him in a gloomy atmosphere.

As soon as Fang Yue and others stepped into the area of ​​the ancient house, they felt a strong sense of oppression, as if there were countless pairs of eyes peering at them from the dark, which made people shudder.

"Who is here? You dare to break into this place without permission. Today is your day of death!" The mysterious man in black robe made a hoarse and cold voice, which echoed in this ancient and silent house.

Fang Yue's eyes glared and he replied loudly: "You are an evil person who has brought trouble to the world. Today I will completely destroy your lair and restore peace to the world!"

After saying that, he took the lead in drawing his sword and rushed forward. The martial arts masters and imperial troops behind him also shouted to follow. For a moment, the shouts of killing broke the original silence of the ancient house.

The mysterious man in black robe was unhurried. He slowly raised his hands and muttered something in his mouth. The black mist surrounding the ancient house instantly turned into black sharp arrows and shot towards Fang Yue and others.

The arrow was extremely fast, tearing the air wherever it passed, making a harsh whistling sound.

Seeing this, Fang Yue used his body skills, and his body turned into afterimages, flexibly dodging between the gaps of the sharp arrows. At the same time, he waved the long sword in his hand, and sword energy flew out, colliding with those black sharp arrows. Together, bursts of roaring sounds erupted, and the aftermath of the energy shock caused the surrounding houses to shake.

Other martial arts masters and the imperial army also used their own skills to block, or used weapons to block, or used spells to resist, and the situation fell into a stalemate for a while.

But when the mysterious man in black robe saw this, he snorted coldly and increased his mana output. The black mist surged again, and several tall, ferocious-looking black monsters actually condensed in the center of the ancient house.

These monsters exuded a pungent rotten smell, opened their mouths wide, waved their thick and spiked arms, and rushed towards everyone.

"Everyone, be careful, these monsters are difficult to deal with!" Fang Yue warned loudly, then raised his sword and rushed towards the monsters.

He used his newly learned powerful sword moves. Each sword contained powerful power. It struck the monster and splashed black smoke. Although the monster was attacked, it seemed to be unaware of the pain and continued to attack crazily. Everyone.

The martial arts masters also used their unique skills to fight the monsters to the death.

Some used sharp palm skills to beat the monsters back; some used magic weapons, which glowed brightly and temporarily trapped the monsters.

The imperial army assisted from the side, finding the right opportunity to use bows and crossbows to shoot at the key points of the monsters.

Under the concerted attack of everyone, the monster gradually declined, but at this moment, the mysterious man in black robe suddenly launched a more terrifying attack.

He took out a black bead that exuded a strange light from his arms, and chanted an obscure spell in his mouth. The bead instantly released an extremely powerful dark force, sweeping towards everyone.

Wherever this force went, even space seemed to be distorted, and huge cracks were torn out on the ground. Many martial arts masters and soldiers were hit by this force, and instantly vomited blood and flew backwards, suffering heavy injuries.

Fang Yue also felt the terror of this power. He gritted his teeth and decided to try with all his strength.

He mobilized all the power in his body and focused it on the long sword in his hand. The long sword shined brightly, and the runes on the sword shone more and more dazzlingly, as if to compete with this dark power.

"Demon-breaking light!" Fang Yue shouted and displayed his strongest sword skill. A huge sword energy shining with holy light spurted out from the tip of the sword and rushed towards the dark power. past.

In an instant, light and darkness collided together, and the whole world seemed to be plunged into chaos. The intense light and darkness intertwined, making it difficult to open one's eyes.

The huge roar was deafening, as if it would burst people's eardrums.

At this critical moment of the stalemate, Fang Yue felt that his strength was being exhausted little by little, but he had only one thought in his mind, that is, he must not let this evil force succeed.

With his tenacious will, he continued to maintain the power of his sword skills.

Finally, after a stalemate that seemed to last for a long time, the dark power gradually became looser, and the mysterious man in black robe also showed a trace of panic.

Fang Yue seized this opportunity and suddenly increased his power output. The holy light finally broke through the darkness and swept towards the mysterious man in black robe.

The mysterious man in black robe was unable to dodge and was hit by the light. He let out a scream and the black bead fell from his hand, and the light dimmed instantly.

Without the support of the black beads, those monsters also dissipated and disappeared into wisps of black smoke.

Fang Yue and others took the opportunity to launch a general attack and captured the mysterious man in black robes in one fell swoop.

This fierce battle made everyone exhausted, but seeing the evil lair successfully destroyed, everyone felt filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Fang Yue wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked away from the mysterious man in black robes, and looked at his companions who were also looking slightly embarrassed but with determination in their eyes.

"Everyone, everyone has worked hard for today's battle, but this also makes us more aware that these evil forces are very deep and ruthless, and we must not take our future actions lightly." Fang Yue said in a solemn tone.

Everyone nodded, the martial arts masters helped each other treat the wounds, and the imperial army began to organize the team and count the casualties.

The captured mysterious man in black robe collapsed on the ground at this moment, his eyes full of resentment and unwillingness, but he was too injured to resist.

Fang Yue stepped forward, squatted down, and stared at the mysterious man in black robe with sharp eyes: "Tell me, who is behind you, and what are you planning to do by setting up such an evil lair here?"

The mysterious man in black robe snorted coldly, turned his head and did not answer, looking like he would rather die than surrender.

Fang Yue frowned slightly and continued: "If you tell the truth, maybe I can ask for a lighter sentence for you in front of the court. If you persist in your persistence, then there is only death waiting for you."

However, the mysterious man in black robe still tightly closed his lips and remained silent.

Fang Yue knew that it would not be easy to pry words out of his mouth. The immediate plan was to take this man back to the capital and hand him over to the court's professional interrogators.

Therefore, Fang Yue arranged for a team of soldiers to strictly guard the mysterious man in black robes and prepare to escort him back to the capital.

And they continued to search the ancient house to see if there were any missing clues.

Everyone spread out and carefully explored every corner of the ancient house.

In a secret basement, they found some dusty books and letters.

Fang Yue picked up the book and flipped through it, and found that it recorded some ancient and evil formations, as well as information about secret contacts with the cult organizations in Dajin. It seemed that the mysterious man in black robes had inextricably linked to Dajin. connect.

The letter vaguely mentioned a larger conspiracy, which seemed to be to launch attacks all over the Wei Dynasty at the same time to create chaos so that the Wei court would be overwhelmed and achieve their ulterior motives.

Fang Yue's face became more and more gloomy. He was well aware of the seriousness of the matter and decided to speed up the investigation immediately. He must not let these evil forces succeed in their conspiracy.

After everyone had thoroughly searched the ancient house, they took the evidence and the mysterious man in black robes and embarked on their way back to the capital.

Along the way, Fang Yue was thinking about how to deal with the crisis he might face next. He knew that the power of himself, these martial arts masters, and the imperial army alone was not enough. The entire Wei Dynasty must be alerted and all people should participate. into action against the forces of evil.

After returning to the capital, Fang Yue immediately reported the situation to Zhu Linlang, the empress of Wei, and presented the evidence found during the search.

When the empress heard about it, Long Yan was furious, and immediately ordered an intensified investigation. At the same time, she asked court officials to notify the whole country of the situation, reminding people everywhere to be more vigilant, and report to the government immediately if they find suspicious people or things.

After the imperial notice spread throughout the Wei Dynasty, the people also took action spontaneously.

People in many towns spontaneously organized patrol teams to patrol the streets day and night, not missing any suspicious signs.

Some warriors even took the initiative to report to the government, requesting to join the team fighting against the evil forces. Even if they were just doing some logistical support or delivering news, they all hoped to contribute.

Fang Yue, on the other hand, did not stop after reporting the situation.

He discussed with relevant officials of the imperial court and the heads of various sects to formulate a more detailed and comprehensive response strategy.

They decided to divide different areas based on the geographical environment and population distribution of each place, and assign dedicated personnel to take charge of each area. There were not only imperial troops stationed at key locations, but also martial arts masters leading civilian warriors to conduct daily inspections and patrols.

At the same time, a special contact point has been set up. Once an abnormality is discovered in a certain area, the message can be quickly passed on so that other areas can respond in time and support each other.

In order to improve everyone's ability to deal with various evil spells and methods of evil forces, Fang Yue organized a number of training camps.

He invited masters from various sects who were good at different techniques and spells to teach cracking methods and defense techniques to those involved in the operation.

For example, for those sorcery that can control monsters, experts who are proficient in the art of beast control explain how to disrupt the mind of monsters and make them lose the coordination of attacks; for illusions commonly used by evil forces, seniors who are good at spiritual cultivation teach everyone. How to stabilize your mind and not be fooled by illusions.

In terms of material preparation, with the strong support of the eight major families, various sophisticated weapons, healing elixirs, and spiritual objects needed to perform spells are continuously transported to various strongholds.

The imperial court also increased its support for related workshops such as blacksmith shops and alchemy rooms in various places, encouraging them to step up production and ensure an adequate supply of materials.

However, although preparations are in full swing, the evil forces are not idle.

In a small city on the northwest border of the Wei Dynasty, strange black flames ignited inexplicably in many places in the city overnight.

The temperature of the flame was extremely high, and the houses wherever it went were instantly reduced to ashes, and the people fled in panic.

Moreover, the flames seemed to be alive and would actively chase people. Many people were swallowed by the flames on the way to escape, and screams resounded through the night sky.

The local defenders and martial arts warriors rushed over to try to extinguish the fire, but pouring ordinary water on it had no effect at all, and spell attacks could only temporarily weaken the flames, and then they would burn again and become more ferocious.

The news quickly spread to the capital. After Fang Yue heard about it, he immediately led an elite team to the small town on the northwest border.

When Fang Yue and his party arrived at the small town, the scene in front of them shocked everyone.

Almost half of the entire town was swallowed up by black flames, and the pungent burnt smell and strong evil atmosphere filled the ruins.

The cries and screams of the people were intertwined together, like a purgatory on earth.

Fang Yue's face was stern, and his eyes revealed firmness and determination. He knew that the source of the black flames must be found and extinguished as soon as possible, otherwise the small town would be completely reduced to ruins and the people would suffer disaster.

"Everyone, don't panic. According to the previously discussed tactics, some people will help the people evacuate, and some people will follow me to find the source of the flames!"

Fang Yue shouted loudly, his voice full of majesty and calmness, making everyone present calm down a little.

He led a group of martial arts masters and court elites and galloped towards the direction where the flames were the strongest.

Along the way, they encountered multiple attacks from black flames.

The flame seemed to have spirituality, constantly changing its shape and attack methods. Sometimes it turned into a huge fire snake and pounced on everyone with its fangs and claws. Sometimes it split into countless small fireballs and attacked overwhelmingly.

Fang Yue displayed exquisite sword skills, moving his sword with him, and fierce sword energy roared out, extinguishing the approaching flames.

However, the regeneration ability of the flame is extremely strong. As soon as it is extinguished in one area, it will rekindle in other places in an instant.

"This flame is very evil. It seems to be connected to some evil formation. It is difficult to completely destroy it with a simple attack." Fang Yue analyzed calmly while resisting the flame attack.

An old man who was traveling with him who was good at formations heard this, carefully observed the surrounding environment and the trend of the flames, nodded and said:

"What Fang Daxia said is absolutely true. I think the layout of the flames vaguely presents the prototype of an ancient evil formation - the 'Nine Nether Flame Demonic Array'. Once this formation is fully formed, its power will be immeasurable, and not only this small town will It will be wiped out and a large area around it will be affected.”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but tremble in their hearts. Fang Yue frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "In this case, we must find the center of the formation and destroy it to completely stop the spread of the flames."

As a result, they moved more carefully through the flames, paying attention to any clues that might be related to the formation eye.

Near an ancient clock tower near the center of the small town, Fang Yue felt a powerful wave of evil power.

"The formation eye may be under that bell tower!" Fang Yue shouted and rushed towards the bell tower first. (End of chapter)
