Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

"You want to put me under house arrest?" Zixiao's voice was magnetic, and there was still not much emotional fluctuation.

At this moment, the sky quickly became dark, and star-like points of light flickered in the sky. Jiang Chengji, carrying a huge sword on his shoulder, walked into the field with heavy steps, came close to Murong Zhixiu, and stood opposite the Purple Sky Saint.

"The Saint of Daoxuan League is indeed worthy of her reputation. She can always maintain her state in the Xuandao realm. It is truly admirable." Jiang Chengji sighed.

Fairy Zixiao always maintains a state in a mysterious realm, as if she is in harmony with heaven and earth, and every move she makes can trigger the trajectory of the great way.

"Qianhe, are you here to attack me too?" The Saint Zixiao noticed a man and a dog not far away. She was surrounded by a mysterious purple mist, and her stunning face could not be seen clearly, but one could feel that her brows were slightly furrowed.

Obviously, the appearance of Gu Chi and the big black dog made her feel a little pressured.

She was not afraid when facing the combined forces of Murong Zhixiu and Jiang Chengji alone, but if Gu Chi and the big black dog were added, it would be difficult for her to escape unscathed.

"brush"

A scroll burst out from her body and spread out behind her, making her look even more ethereal.

"A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains?!"

Murong's pupils shrank as he hurriedly took a few steps back, using the replica of the Four Symbols Square Inkstone to block his way. At the same time, he secretly warned Jiang Chengji and the others, "Be careful, this is a treasured weapon of the Daoxuan League. Even a powerful Jindan Stage master could be trapped and killed while refining it!"

In the painting of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, the majestic mountains are like gods standing with swords in hand, and the surging rivers are like real dragons running. It is magnificent yet beautiful.

The Saintess Zixiao was like a purple snow lotus, peaceful and holy. Although she was trapped here, she did not show any panic or helplessness, and remained calm and composed.

"boom!"

Murong Zhixiu was the first to take action. When he raised his hand, a huge black dragon rushed out from the void, roaring, shaking the ice field, and rushed towards the Purple Sky Saint with its fangs and claws bared.

"Snapped"

The Purple Sky Saint flicked her hair, and purple air filled the air, causing the black dragon to disintegrate instantly.

Then, she gently raised her jade hand, and a picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains spread out. A real world emerged from the sky, attracting people's souls and bodies.

Murong Zhixiu was out of control and was lifted up from the ground by a mysterious force, about to sink into the world in the painting.

"Buzz!"

The void shook, and the Four Symbols Square Inkstone in his hand vibrated, emitting a long black light that hit the scroll.

"The Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains is truly amazing. I almost got into trouble!" Murong Zhixiu came to his senses in an instant, cried out in surprise, and quickly retreated with the help of the residual power of the Four Symbols Square Inkstone. Fortunately, he was not pulled into the scroll.

The Saintess Zixiao was in a calm mood, neither happy nor worried. She did not seem to be facing the siege of a powerful enemy, but rather seemed to be quietly watching the clouds rolling and unrolling in the sky.

This is not contempt, but a state of mind, a state of mind that remains calm even when faced with a crisis.

Jiang Chengji stepped forward, black mist surging around him. He looked majestic and burly, carrying a huge sword on his shoulder. Every step he took made the earth shake.

He did not charge forward directly, but raised his hand and cast a spell. His left hand turned into a real dragon, which instantly forced its way to the front of Saint Zixiao. The dragon's head was as high as Mount Tai, and its body was like a section of the Great Wall of Steel, full of overwhelming power, crushing down.

"boom"

The Purple Sky Saint Lady remained calm in her response. Her slender hands were as white as jade, and her five fingers were as slender and crystal clear as water onions. She gently brushed them in front of her body.

The seemingly effortless and gentle movement, without any surge of divine power, made Jiang Chengji's face turn pale on the spot.

That delicate hand has the aura of the Tao!

"Snapped"

When the black dragon met the jade hand, it was broken in an instant, letting out a dragon roar, and then dimmed and turned into nothingness.

"Buzz!"

Jiang Chengji changed his hand gestures, and a ferocious bird rushed out from the void, its whole body blazing with golden light, howling fiercely to the sky, flapping a pair of wings that seemed to be cast from gold, and swooping down quickly.

The Saintess Zixiao remained calm and composed. With a slight stroke of her slender jade hand, it seemed as if she had drawn out a trace of the great Dao in the dark, preventing the vicious birds from getting close.

"boom!"

Jiang Chengji took a step forward, and the ground shook. With every step he took, the aura around him rose a bit. When he took the fourth step, the ice field under his feet began to crack.

He was like a ferocious god, with long black hair dancing wildly and messy, eyes like knives, extremely sharp, bronze skin, and muscle lines like coiled dragons, full of power.

He raised his aura to the peak and fought with the Purple Sky Saint. As a result, the ice field and the sky became violent and shook continuously.

"boom"

He swung the giant sword with all his might, sweeping across the Purple Sky Saint. The heavy sword had no edge, but as it was swung, the sounds of dragon roars and tiger roars could be heard, and his divine power was overwhelming.

The Saintess Zixiao was in a very mysterious and wonderful state, as if she was integrated with the world. Every move she made seemed to move the avenue. Every movement seemed gentle and graceful, but extremely terrifying.

Wherever his beautiful hand passed, the space was distorted, and there was a hidden breath of Tao. Anyone who was touched by it would be shattered on the spot.

This was a tit-for-tat battle. One was powerful and fierce, with great movements, while the other was gentle as water, elegant and refined. The two completely different auras entangled and collided with each other, and for a period of time, neither could do anything to the other.

Jiang Chengji did not use his strongest killer move because he was not sure of a successful attack, and the opponent's Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Map was hanging above his head, so he needed to be on guard at all times.

"You are using the Thirteen Heavenly Demon Styles. Are you a descendant of the Jiang family of Shu?"

The Purple Sky Saint finally spoke and recognized the method used by Jiang Chengji.

Although Jiang Chengji was the leader of Murong Zhixiu and his group of small bandits, he rarely showed up in public. Therefore, Saint Zixiao did not recognize that the person in front of her was the descendant of Jiang Si, the ninth biggest thief in the north.

However, she recognized at a glance the martial arts technique that Jiang Chengji was practicing. It was the inheritance of a large family in the past Shu Kingdom.

"What are the Nine Heavenly Demon Styles? Where is Shu Kingdom? Why haven't I heard of it?" Gu Chi asked Murong Zhixiu beside him.

"Shu was a small country 30,000 to 40,000 years ago. It has long since collapsed and become history. The Nine Heavenly Demon Styles are the inherited skills of the Jiang family of Shu."

Murong Zhixiu explained in a low voice, then added, "I heard that Brother Chengji and his family were a branch of the Jiang family of the Shu Kingdom at that time."

Gu Chi was surprised. He didn't expect there was such a history. The fourteen thieves in the north were indeed from prominent backgrounds.

The Nine Styles of the Heavenly Demon were the supreme secret techniques of the Jiang family of the Shu Kingdom at that time. Once activated, they could shake the heavens and the earth, as if the demon from another world had descended upon the earth, with immense power.

Just like Jiang Chengji at this moment, he was unstoppable. Every time he swung the giant sword, it would bring up a ray of light to block the purple divine mist rising into the sky.
