Chapter 1651: External Dharma
Bai Ziqi tracked down the Nine Nether Emperor, intercepted the clue of Qian Huan Zhenren on the way, and then came to Tianshui City to ask Miao Zhantian for help. He certainly could not have imagined that another important clue about Qian Huan Zhenren was in Yao Palace, in Yuquan Palace where he passed by!
At this moment, Bai Tan was chased by a giant viper and shouted for help from the gods.
Wu Linghe said to Qingyang: "Save him first!"
"Okay." Qingyang agreed straightforwardly. Bai Tan was her partner in the rebellion and an important figure in the subsequent actions, so she couldn't just stand by and watch.
She lifted her staff and used it as a javelin, hurling it into the viper's back.
When he first let go of the short staff, it grew longer in mid-air against the wind, and when it shot to the back of the giant viper, its length had exceeded ten and a half feet!
King Yao saw this action from a high place, so the giant snake turned around and reached back to grab the wooden stick!
Just as it was about to break the staff, the next second the staff exploded and turned into dozens of vines that quickly wrapped around it.
From an outsider's perspective, it looked as if dozens of sturdy pythons had entangled the giant viper, entangled its waist, shoulders, arms, and especially its neck. Everyone could also feel the force of the vines' efforts to contract, as if a python was strangling its prey.
At the same time, long and thin thorns grew on the vines. At first glance, they seemed soft, but in fact they kept digging and drilling into the gaps in the scales!
The Yao people's soldiers tried their best but couldn't penetrate the giant snake's scales, but were pierced by the weak and soft thorns. Yuan Xuan even saw tiny dark blue liquid beads oozing out of the giant snake's cold gray body.
Perhaps this is the blood of the giant viper.
Moreover, the vines grew more and more numerous and stronger, covering the surface of the giant snake layer by layer, and finally formed an airtight vine ball.
King Yao was shocked when he saw Qingyang muttering while pinching the magic formula, and he knew that she was doing something bad, so he pinched the inner elixir and said, "Break it, break it quickly!"
He turned to the doctor and said, "Shoot this old witch, quickly!"
A dull roar came from the vine ball, and streams of white frost spurted out from the cracks. It was obvious that the giant snake began to exert its strength under the urging of King Yao.
The vines were dyed white, and there were constant crackling sounds. Before they were frozen solid, the giant snakes could not wait to destroy them.
This idea is fine. Most vines are easily frozen and cracked in extremely low temperatures, and their toughness is no longer there. It is much easier for the giant snake to pry them apart.
Qingyang changed his hand gestures and even closed his eyes, concentrating on controlling the transformation of his staff.
The giant viper destroyed the tree ball very quickly, so she had to send out the vines even faster to trap the giant beast.
At this time, she didn't consider using any immobilization spells, as it would not have any good effect on this kind of monster.
Seeing this, the soldier next to the tree ball also wanted to stab the giant viper twice, but as soon as the tip of the gun stabbed it, the weapon was swept away by the wildly growing vines!
If you run a step slower, you will be crushed into a meat patty by the giant ball.
When these two powerful men are fighting, how can others interfere?
This is a battle of wits and also a wrestling match.
It was equivalent to Qingyang fighting against this giant monster transformed from the immortal's external body with his own strength. At the same time, King Yao also poured a lot of Yuanli into it!
It was only at this moment that Qingyang's true level was revealed. He was able to fight the giant monster head-on without losing.
But the stalemate lasted only a few dozen breaths, sweat pouring down her forehead and her face no longer looked as relaxed as before.
In order to hold down the monster and make the vines grow faster than it can destroy, every breath and every second consumed an astonishing amount of energy. Even Qingyang felt that he was being quickly drained.
"Palace Master!" Yuan Xuan quickly handed over a large piece of red crystal.
Qingyang snatched it away, and the red crystal shrank in her hand at a speed visible to the naked eye!
In just a few dozen breaths, the black crystal shrank by half, and tens of thousands of taels of silver were gone.
This move alone made the other practitioners' eyes widen. Most people could only use the black crystal when they were meditating and regulating their breathing, so that the spiritual power in it could be slowly released throughout the body bit by bit. Otherwise, it would be like a small canal that could not catch a sudden mountain torrent, and instead squeeze the meridians.
However, while Qingyang was fighting at a high intensity, he was also able to quickly convert the black crystal into his own true power with amazing efficiency and without any mistakes.
This can't be achieved simply by possessing secret techniques.
This is day after day of training muscles and bones, day after day of widening meridians, day after day of consolidating the foundation.
Qingyang is no longer at the age of showing off her skills, and she has rarely taken action in recent years. But from the small details, it is clear that her nearly 200 years of practice foundation is indeed extraordinary.
Outsiders could only see the tree ball rolling around, with clanging sounds inside and the dull roar of the giant viper; but Qingyang knew very well that the entanglement in the tree ball had reached a fever pitch, and if she was just a little bit slower, the giant viper would break out!
This is the Dharma image of Qianhuan Zhenren, equivalent to the clone of the ancient great immortal. Even if it only fights by instinct, it is enough to flatten the Frost Fairy Palace. And she also noticed that the giant snake's fighting is becoming more and more proficient, and its ineffective moves are becoming less and less.
Is it that King Yao is becoming more skilled in controlling it, or is it that this giant snake itself has some tricks?
Her face was slightly pale.
Every second of fighting costs astonishing amounts!
At the doctor's order, the archers changed direction and shot at Qingyang and Wulinghe.
Yes, King Yao also realized that there was something wrong with this Bejia messenger and decided to kill him as soon as possible, once and for all.
Yuan Xuan and others formed a circle, protecting Qingyang and Wu Linghe firmly in the middle.
They had to resist the rain of arrows from the imperial guards, and repel the attacks of the stone beasts. When Qingyang had no time to spare to fight, they seemed to be caught between a rock and a hard place, and were no longer as calm as before.
Perhaps he had figured out a new use for the inner elixir. King Yao slapped the copper ball a few times, and the white mist that emerged from the Yuquan Palace spontaneously went to find the stone beasts. It not only formed a layer of ice armor on their bodies, but also attached it to their claws and fangs.
Soldiers who were bitten or scratched by them would have light blue ice crystals appear in their wounds, and then frost would begin to form all over their bodies, and their joints would become increasingly stiff.
It is much easier to destroy the enemy's manpower using this method.
Yuan Xuan cursed. These little monsters actually have advanced versions!
The intensity of the battle quickly escalated by two levels. In just a few dozen breaths, Bai Hengbo's men were knocked down one after another. Ten of them were quickly dragged away and dismembered among the stone sculptures.
Even the Qing Guards lost one person and injured two.
"Go! Go!" Bai Tan seized the opportunity and pointed at King Yao on the stone steps and shouted, "Kill him!"
He knew very well that now that he had come this far, he had no choice but to charge forward. There was no way of retreat for him, his men, or his family.
There is a bottomless abyss behind you, and if you take a step back you will be crushed to pieces!
In the Frost Fairy Palace, no one was more eager for victory than him.
The giant viper was held back by Qingyang, and Bai Tan's soldiers quickly cheered up and attacked the wall of Frost Fairy Palace again.
They were mainly temple soldiers. After seeing the appearance of the goddess Fenghe, their will to fight for the gods and Bai Tan became stronger. They chanted prayers and attacked desperately. Tu Han and Shan Zezhong's troops attacked from the rear, but they could not gain any advantage.
Zhao Song and his men were standing at the entrance of the courtyard, bearing the most violent attacks, and were already exhausted. He hacked two more people to death, and his right hand was in great pain, so he raised his knife a little too late. The Qingwei who was mixed in the crowd seized the opportunity and quickly stabbed him in the ribs.
The knife injured his liver and Zhao Song's strength was instantly drained away.
The two guards behind him were also knocked down. Zhao Song was stabbed in the chest again and was dragged to the ground and chopped into several pieces in an instant.
The entrance to the courtyard was lost.
The Baitan side gained the upper hand and tried their best to push their troops into the hospital.
They put up a stubborn resistance, but once they lost their advantage in terrain, their numerical disadvantage immediately became apparent.
If the stone beasts had not diverted the enemy's attention and prevented the Baitan Army from attacking wholeheartedly, the Yao Army would have suffered even greater casualties.
While the opponent was shrinking their defense circle, Bai Tan rushed to Qingyang and others and successfully completed the meeting of the two armies!
He knew very well that it would be much safer if he stood next to Qingyang.
Then, he discovered that the Begat envoy Wu Linghe had closed his eyes and muttered to himself at some point.
A meteor suddenly appeared in the night sky in the west. It was not very bright, and almost no one in the chaotic Tianshui City and Yao Palace noticed its arrival.
But it crashed into the Yao Palace and the Frost Fairy Palace at an astonishing speed.
The bird demon flying in the air was the first to notice its existence.
When I looked closer, I realized that it was not a meteor at all, but a ball of purple-red light!
Wu Linghe suddenly stopped praying.
Time seemed to stagnate slightly.
Two breaths later, a ball of light suddenly appeared and hit him accurately!
A strong light suddenly burst out, and even King Yao on the stone steps subconsciously turned his head and covered his eyes.
At the same time, three big hands came out of the rattan ball. After a few snaps, the giant viper tore the rattan ball into pieces and escaped with a roar!
Qingyang spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered back two steps, and was supported by Yuan Xuan.
The green wood staff was one of her life-long magic weapons. It had been with her for more than 30 years, and she had always nurtured it with her heart and blood. When the staff was broken, she was immediately attacked.
But she looked relaxed because the task of holding back the giant viper had been accomplished.
She whispered one word to Yuan Xuan:
"retreat!"
From now on, she will no longer be the main force against the giant viper.
The giant snake had just smashed the takraw ball into pieces, and immediately turned around and set its sights on Bai Tan.
Bai Tan couldn't help but shiver, as if he could see deep hatred in those ice-blue eyes.
Then, it threw the trident in its hand towards Bai Tan!
The divine soldiers descended from the sky with unparalleled momentum, much more impressive than Qingyang's throwing of the staff just now.
Along with it came a blizzard that swept everything away.
Bai Tan felt a cold light in front of his eyes, and he was terrified as he had no way to retreat or avoid it.
"Regent..."
Before the word "save me" was uttered, Wu Linghe beside him took two steps forward and threw out two lavender halos.
One after the other.
The two halos could not be seen what they were, and they grew rapidly in the air, one heading towards the trident, and the other flying towards King Yao.
The trident will naturally not change its route and will continue to move towards the halo.
As a result, it disappeared as soon as it entered the halo, and even the wind and snow in the sky stopped!
The next moment, it passed through another halo, its direction and distance completely changed, and it continued to carry the dazzling white light, fiercely stabbing towards -
Yao King!
There was a loud bang and snow powder flew everywhere.
Divine art, space folding.
The giant snake dealt a heavy blow to Bai Tan, and Wu Linghe used his magic to guide it and returned it to King Yao.
