Embers of Sword

Chapter 477 Bai Ze (I)

Rain poured down from the sky and huge ships faced each other.

No one knows what Qin Baihuang and Qin Qianlian are talking about at this moment.

"I heard that on the first day after returning to the Imperial City, a lot of unpleasant things happened between the two of them..."

Qian San turned his head slightly and saw a middle-aged man in a gray robe, slowly leaning on the railing. This time, Qin Baihuang spent a lot of money to recruit people and horses to fight the demons in Southern Xinjiang, and even invited several Yin Shen masters. Of course, the book house also contributed. Qin Baihuang and Chen Jingxuan had a personal relationship. The book house not only sent Qian San to shake the boat, but also invited a Yin Shen Tenth Realm "Master" to escort.

The name of this venerable monk is Baocheng, and on the surface he is a wandering cultivator in the mountains without any sect or school.

But when one reaches this level, how is it possible to truly have no sect or school?

Behind Venerable Baocheng is Fangyuanfang, the library, and Chen Jingxuan.

Venerable Bao Cheng asked, "Do you think they will fight again?"

“I think it’s difficult.”

Qian San shook his head and spoke with a chuckle.

"Oh?"

Venerable Bao Cheng smiled and said, "Is it because your divine consciousness can sense Qin Qianlian's aura?"

"That's not the reason."

Qian San said calmly: "It is called a fight when both sides fight back and forth. If these two people quarrel, there will probably be only one scene, that is, someone gets beaten unilaterally."

"..."

Venerable Bao Cheng was silent for a while.

Qin Baihuang was of noble status. Even if he put aside his status as the eldest son of the Qin family, he was still respected. Over the years, the Weapon Refining Department had helped many holy places and sects for free. This was also the reason why Xuanzui Mountain could attract such a large number of guests. However, even though Venerable Bao Cheng had a good personal relationship with Qin Baihuang, he had to admit that... this guy's cultivation was really terrible.

"If a fight really breaks out, will we be able to stop it at this distance?"

Venerable Bao Cheng was a little worried.

He saw that Qian San had no intention of moving and didn't seem to be worried about a conflict.

"Qin Baihuang just told me that the 'Black Scale Armor' he was wearing was specially made to resist the thunder magic of Changshengzhai."

Qian San said lazily: "It's not a big problem to take a beating."

"??"

Venerable Bao Cheng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, so Qian San had no intention of trying to stop the fight?
"This is not good..."

Venerable Bao Cheng said helplessly: "Master asked us to protect him."

"If you can't die, then you are safe."

Although he acted as if he didn't care, Qian San's eyes were always on where the two were talking.

He kept his eyes on Qin Qianlian.

After working in Liguo Fangyuanfang for many years, Qian San's ability to judge people by their appearance has reached perfection.

He could tell.

Qin Qianlian's eyes were clear and contained no murderous intent.

According to Qian San's experience, most of these people are focused and have never been polluted by worldly affairs.

just.

Qin Qianlian seems to be different.

Qian San couldn't quite see through the man in white.

The high-profile visit to Beijing a while ago made many people dissatisfied with the second son of the Qin family.

Since they were competing for the position of the head of the family, they had to at least cooperate in putting on a show. In recent years, the Qin family has been promoting that the second son is low-key, elegant, well-educated, and only devoted to studying Taoism, so he has hidden himself from the world. However, Qin Qianlian is completely different from the publicity image of the Qin family. He ignores etiquette and is arrogant because of his talent. As the protagonist, he did not even attend the welcoming banquet specially arranged by the Qin family. Those noble families who were willing to serve as foils waited for several hours in Yuanqing Tower, but in the end they did not see the second son. The second son's handling of the matter was really embarrassing for them.

"…Or I should go there."

Venerable Bao Cheng was worried, he didn't think Qin Qianlian was a good person.

Just as he was about to leave the ship.

Qian San stretched out his hand and pressed him down.

"Ok?"

Venerable Bao Cheng was a little confused.

"Don't you think... that what this Second Young Master did is a little weird?"

Qian San frowned and spoke slowly.

Venerable Bao Cheng was stunned.

"I checked the case files in the library. Qin Qianlian has lived in seclusion since he was young and has no interest in power struggles, so he rebelled and left Beijing, joined a Taoist sect, and practiced the art of Changshengzhai."

Qian San murmured, "Since you are only interested in practicing Taoism, why do you have to return to the imperial city to fight for the position of head of this family?"

……

……

The conversation between Black Armor and White Clothes ended smoothly.

When Qin Baihuang returned to the deck, many people broke out in cold sweats.

"Send me a message to open the protective formation of the Bingyou ship."

Qin Baihuang gave the order immediately after returning to the ship.

This order stunned many people.

"Master, the First Seat?"

A capable officer under the Equipment Refining Department asked quickly, "Are you okay?"

"shit!"

Qin Baihuang said unhappily: "Didn't you all see the conversation between this guy and me...what can happen to me!"

"But... Bingyou is a large ship that treats the wounded."

"That's why we have to start the battle."

Qin Baihuang said calmly: "Save those Changshengzhai disciples first."

As soon as these words were spoken, the main ship deck fell into silence.

The venerables looked at each other, and everything was said without words.

"Don't worry, Qin Qianlian is not as despicable as you think."

Qin Baihuang sighed and said, "I have already reached an agreement with him. We will discuss the Qin family's affairs after we leave Southern Xinjiang..."

Venerable Bao Cheng, who was hesitant to speak, finally swallowed his words back. He looked at Qian San, hoping that this most powerful person would raise objections.

But Qian San did not shake his head.

Thus, the six large ships slowly changed from opposition to unity... The large ships came together, and the Bingyou opened the barrier on the ship to accept the injured monks from Changshengzhai.

Afterwards, Qin Qianlian also brought his disciples to the main ship.

The atmosphere at the moment is not very harmonious.

Because these retainers from Xuanzui Mountain originally came here to help Qin Baihuang win the "dispute over the position of family head". Even though a reconciliation has been reached at this moment, the situation is still tense and both sides are on the verge of a showdown.

Su Hong, the young Taoist priest who was responsible for delivering the letter last time, stepped forward again and humbly made the information about "Qingfu Mountain" into a jade slip and delivered it to several venerables.

The signal from Xuanzui Mountain has lost its effect and the intelligence is somewhat delayed.

This jade slip is just the right help in times of need.

As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. Seeing this situation, even if the venerables had some opinions, they could not say much.

"Master Qin, this guy is on board. How about we just capture him?"

A venerable suggested through voice transmission.

"..."

Qin Baihuang shook his head and did not adopt this suggestion.

He motioned for everyone to look at the jade slip first.

"You said earlier that the Yin God Supervisors of the six Zhanjiao Mountains agreed to meet at Qiding Mountain."

After reading the jade slip, Venerable Bao Cheng asked first, "Since you are heading for Qiding Mountain... then why are you here? Why didn't you see any Venerable Yin Gods from other holy places?"

"good question."

Qin Qianlian said calmly: "Perhaps you have heard of the art of moving mountains."

"The art of moving mountains..."

A venerable murmured, "I heard that this is the magic of Forget Worry Island. It can move mountains and seas and block people's way."

"Not so much."

Qin Qianlian said casually: "Wangyou Island does have this technique, but Taoism also has records of it. The so-called 'Mountain Moving Technique' can only be performed in a specific environment. It uses the technique of finding the pulse to change the celestial phenomena. In a sense, this is an illusion."

"Illusion?"

Venerable Bao Cheng frowned: "You mean... we are here because we were under an illusion?"

"This mountain is real, the rain is real..."

A disciple from the Weapon Refining Department had a complicated expression: "How could such a technique exist in this world?"

“Seeing is believing, hearing is believing.”

Qin Qianlian lowered his eyes and said, "Now that we have met, it is enough to prove that this 'Mountain Moving Technique' not only exists, but is also very powerful. Not only us, but the other mountains that occupy the foot may not be spared. The person who cast the illusion must be at a very high level... Our meeting here is probably not a coincidence, but a necessity."

As soon as these words were spoken, three words suddenly appeared in everyone's mind.

Paper people say.

"I know you don't welcome me."

Qin Qianlian smiled faintly: "To be honest, I don't want to be here either. I came here to hunt down the 'corpse Taoist'. Once the corpse Taoist shows up, I will leave."

"Okay. No need to say these words at this juncture."

Qin Baihuang raised his hand to suppress the noisy sounds.

He spoke in a deep voice: "Now the miasma in southern Xinjiang is rampant and the witchcraft is blinding us. It is better for us to gather together than to be defeated one by one. What we need to do now is to protect ourselves and wait for news from Master Wu Zexian..."

The words have not yet fallen.

Suddenly, a thunderous roar sounded from the ceiling again.

Everyone frowned and looked up.

I saw the clouds in the sky changing, and the silver-white rain lines suddenly became thicker, falling down as sharp as swords.

The ship's energy shield opened up and turned into a giant transparent umbrella.

Countless raindrops were bounced away by the giant umbrella, the sky slowly opened up, and scarlet clouds slowly moved backwards like a tornado... Due to sailing for several days, the Yuanshi reserves of several treasure ships of the Equipment Refining Bureau were running low, so they deliberately lowered their altitude. At this moment, the ground beneath the treasure ships was shaking violently.

"The sky...is falling?"

A disciple from the Equipment Refining Department lost his balance and fell onto the deck, looking up at the sky with a pale face.

The sky was cut by thousands of rain blades——

These rain swords tore apart the stinging thunder and the clouds in the sky, and finally tore apart the ethereal fog on the dome.

Dense blood clouds fell, carrying with them tremendous pressure.

In an instant, the entire ship seemed to be hit by a huge object.

Everyone felt the pressure coming from the sky.

"Not just the sky! But also the earth!"

There was also a North County disciple leaning against the railing, his voice horrified.

The ground cracked.

The treasure ship was enveloped by the pressure and fell uncontrollably, smashing heavily on the ground. Wherever the bottom of the ship touched, countless trees were broken and collapsed, and several hills were crushed by the ship... However, this was only the beginning. Huge cracks appeared on the ground, and the trees fell down one after another and disappeared into the cracks.

"and many more……"

Several venerables directed their spiritual thoughts in the direction of the ground fissure. They vaguely felt that there was a "giant monster" there.

The divine thought flashed out.

Several people were confused at first.

What followed was shock and astonishment.

The earth cracked open, revealing a dark abyss that swallowed up countless trees and shook off rain from the sky. Finally, at the end of the abyss, a huge, ancient and majestic cave appeared.

The cave is dilapidated and withered, and has been silent for who knows how many years.

However, above this entrance, there is a bronze plaque hanging.

There are strange words engraved on it that are familiar to many people.

"White Pond……"

Someone read out the words engraved on the cave plaque in a trembling voice.

Although it is a weird article.

However, these two words are known to everyone in the Holy Land family.

millennia ago.

The vitality has not yet been exhausted.

In the last golden age, countless influential figures dominated the world, and the Great Sage Bai Ze... was the most powerful one among them!
