Chapter 402
The Enlightenment Master is Here
“Stop... stop!” The Demon Lord of Book of Resentment wanted to catch the escaping Zuijiu.
But he was seriously injured just now.
If Zuijiu just turned around and attacked him, the Demon Lord of the Book of Resentment could easily block it.
Just as Zuijiu had judged before, although his current strength was not far beyond that of the opponent, due to various adventures, he was indeed better than Zuijiu.
But he was fooled by Zheng Yi's words and really thought that he had fallen into a trap set by Zuijiu and the others.
When Zheng Yi said to take action, his attention was inevitably drawn to the possible ambushes around him.
In addition, Zuijiu acted very quickly and he was hit without even having time to react.
A dark silver lock shattered with a click and slowly fell from his body.
This is the protective magic weapon of the Demon Lord of the Book of Resentment, and it was bestowed by His Majesty the King of Hell himself. It is a treasure that can save the life of a warrior. He never thought that it would be used in this place.
The Demon Lord of Books was naturally unwilling to see the duck that was already in his hand fly away.
Just as he was about to chase after him, he felt a sharp pain in his meridians as if being burned by flames.
He had no choice but to stop and practice breathing exercises to recover from his injuries first: "Damn Zuijiu, he is only good at these things that are not presentable."
Zuijiu, who was fleeing quickly with Zheng Yi, now had a rosy face.
"Hahaha, you are quite resourceful, that guy was badly tricked by you."
"He is a master of the Divine Transformation Realm, but when I attacked him, he didn't even react at all."
Zuijiu had fought with the Demon Lord of the Book of Resentment before, and he knew very well how powerful that guy was.
After the excitement, he took a sip of wine with some regret: "What a pity, if I could have taken advantage of the victory just now, even if I couldn't kill this guy, I would have the confidence to severely injure him and prevent him from ever improving his cultivation in the future."
Zheng Yi smiled and said nothing.
Let’s not talk about the other powerful beings standing behind the Demon Lord of the Book of Resentment.
They have only escaped so far. It won’t be long before those Jindan cultivators catch up with them.
Even a master of the Divine Transformation Realm cannot deal with so many people.
The only thing he could do was to release those human Jindan masters to resist the attacks of the Nether Spirit cultivators.
If the other party suffers a loss once and wants to use the same method to escape next time, he will definitely pay a huge price.
Zheng Yi had considered releasing all the Jindan masters together with Zui Jiu to besiege the Demon Lord of the Book of Resentment and kill him directly to put an end to it all.
However, he gave up this tempting idea.
This is a master of the Divine Transformation Realm. Even though he was seriously injured due to being drunk, if he really fights hard, the result is hard to predict.
It seems that there is no disadvantage in risking the annihilation of the entire army to kill a master of the other side.
However, the original battle plan of the human side completely failed as a result.
This will put them at a strategic disadvantage.
Zheng Yi didn't know that his decision saved everyone's life, including his own.
In the abyss of the underworld, a furious voice resounded through the heavens and the earth: "How dare you kill my son? I want you dead!"
Just this murderous sound directly killed dozens of young cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.
The next moment, blood shot up into the sky and flew straight towards the direction of Huiyue Demon Lord Shiwan.
The speed is so fast that it is almost invisible to the naked eye.
Zuijiu, who used secret techniques and took strength-enhancing pills, was like the difference between a rabbit and a tortoise compared to his opponent.
The faces of the monks in the Nether Spirit Abyss were all filled with fear.
"What happened? Why is His Excellency Cang Yue Yan Huang so angry?"
"Those damned filthy humans, what good have they done? They actually dared to kill the son of the Cang Yue Flame Emperor. Just prepare to bear the wrath of the Flame Emperor."
Zheng Yi could never have imagined that the death of a Jindan cultivator could shock the entire Mingling clan.
At this moment, Zheng Yi just wanted to get away from Zuijiu as soon as possible.
"Boy, have a sip! As a man, how can you not drink?" Zuijiu handed his wine gourd to Zheng Yi and said drunkenly.
Ever since this guy appeared, it seems like he has never sobered up and always looks like he is drunk.
If this guy's reaction during the battle was not the same as that of a normal person, Zheng Yi would have suspected that he was sick.
Zheng Yi estimated that this should be a side effect of the martial arts he practiced.
"Really, no need, senior. I'm not good at drinking!" Zheng Yi refused again.
"Tsk, you're such a nasty guy." His kindness was rejected once again. Zuijiu took another big sip and flicked his sleeves to wipe off the wine that inadvertently flowed from the corner of his mouth.
The corners of Zheng Yi's mouth twitched violently a few times. He was not a total abstinent person.
The truth is, this Taoist priest was too unkempt. He hadn't washed his robe for who knows how long, and there were many stains on the sleeves, and the navy blue robe looked like it had turned black.
Use this thing to wipe your mouth, then use the wine gourd to drink wine, and now hand the wine gourd to Zheng Yi. He really can't drink it.
Although Zheng Yi felt that Zuijiu gave him wine because there must be some good thing about the wine.
But after preparing myself mentally several times, I still felt uneasy when I saw the wine gourd.
Anyway, his Immaculate Human Emperor Body was being cultivated at an incredible speed, so it didn't matter if he didn't have any of the small benefits.
I can only apologize and reject Zuijiu's kindness again and again.
Without the pursuit of the Mingling clan monks, their speed slowed down a lot.
After all, it was an emergency situation before, and Zuijiu was doing his best, so this state could not last long.
"You little bastard, don't be ungrateful. Not everyone can drink my wine. I don't know how many people have cried and begged for a sip of my wine, but you just don't know the value of it. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again."
Zuijiu doesn't have the slightest airs of a master who has attained the state of being a god. Instead, he actually has a bit of the aura of a senior expert from the game world.
If this guy could clean himself up a little, Zheng Yi would definitely go along with it.
"I appreciate your kindness, but I really don't..."
Before he finished speaking, Zui Jiu casually threw out a pill: "This is Ju Yuan Dan, which can strengthen your foundation and improve your cultivation. However, you'd better wait until you break through the Jin Dan stage before using it. It can help you break through the crystallization and reach the Jin Dan stage better."
As soon as you hear it, you know that this is a pill used to assist in breakthrough. Such a pill is a rare treasure in any realm except the foundation-building stage.
Zheng Yi didn't even blink and put it away decisively: "Thank you, senior!"
Just wanted to say thank you again.
Zheng Yi suddenly felt a huge sense of terror coming over him, as if he was falling into an abyss from which there was no escape.
"Senior, how far is our destination?" Zheng Yi asked with a pale face.
Zuijiu looked at Zheng Yi strangely. Ever since he met this boy, he always looked as if he was at ease.
Even when facing the master of the Divine Transformation, Lord Yu Shu, he could handle it with ease and without fear.
Why are you suddenly so scared now?
"It's only about a thousand miles, what's wrong?" Zheng Yi said hurriedly: "Senior, I feel something very bad is going to happen. Can we hurry as fast as possible and reach our destination in the shortest time possible?"
"Okay!" Zuijiu agreed without thinking.
The monks' synaesthesia often has no reason, but it is closely related to the fate of every monk.
This situation will happen to every cultivator at least a few times during their practice.
There is a clear path ahead, but I feel my life is in danger.
Or even when the situation is very critical, one still feels that they can take advantage of the situation.
Of course, the latter situation is mostly an illusion.
As for this kind of synaesthesia, ninety-nine percent of the monks would rather believe it than not.
After all, even if this pain is just an illusion, it is nothing more than the loss of some opportunities.
But once it comes true, at best your cultivation will be damaged, and in serious cases, death is also a common occurrence.
Zuijiu hesitated for only a moment, then immediately activated his martial arts, and the speed of the wine gourd suddenly increased significantly.
A distance of hundreds of miles was passed in just a few breaths.
After walking only three or four hundred miles, Zuijiu felt an inexplicable fear enveloping him.
This was a crisis that made even a master of the Divine Transformation Realm feel like he might perish.
After calming down, Zuijiu suddenly remembered something.
He only felt the danger at this time, but Zheng Yi actually felt it much earlier than him.
What kind of secrets does this little fellow in the crystallization stage hide?
Although he is a master of enlightenment, Cang Yue Yan Huang's speed when he is furious is extremely terrifying.
However, the distance from the Nether Spirit Abyss to the border between the Nether Spirit Clan and the human race is hundreds of thousands of miles. Even if he wanted to get there, it would not be a matter of a moment.
What's more, Zuijiu is also a master of the spirit transformation realm.
After realizing the danger, Zuijiu reluctantly took another pill, and his speed increased dramatically again.
In front of Zheng Yi, there appeared an endless stretch of snow-capped mountains.
Although the snow-capped mountains are not particularly tall, they stretch as far as the eye can see.
"As long as we pass through here, we will be safe!" After seeing the snow-capped mountains, Zuijiu couldn't help but get excited.
The fear that followed him like a shadow was too terrifying, and he also wanted to return to the human territory as soon as possible.
It seemed as if there was a huge tsunami behind him, following him like a shadow, and he had the illusion that it could swallow him and others up at any time.
The mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles were crossed by Zuijiu in the blink of an eye.
However, Zuijiu did not relax at all. Even when he arrived at the human territory, the huge sense of terror behind him did not disappear, but became stronger and stronger.
At this time, Zuijiu was already over-exhausted due to the series of battles and the constant journey, and his speed was obviously much slower than before.
But he still didn't dare to relax at all. He gritted his teeth and desperately squeezed his spiritual power and rushed towards his sect.
Finally, Zheng Yi saw the destination of this trip, which was a mountain taller than all the surrounding mountains.
The mountain top is filled with spiritual energy, the palace is magnificent and golden, and is shrouded in auspicious clouds.
From a distance, it really is a beautiful fairyland scene.
After discovering Zheng Yi and others, three figures immediately rose into the air and tried to stop them.
"Who are you? You are an idle person in this important place...Uncle Master, you are back."
These people recognized the embarrassed Zuijiu at once.
"Where is the head brother?" Zuijiu, who had no time to deal with these juniors, asked anxiously.
Seeing that Zuijiu, who usually doesn't take anything to heart, is so serious when drinking, these people naturally dare not neglect him: "Uncle Master, the master is meditating in the Qingxin Hall."
At this time, Zuijiu could no longer suppress his fear. He was almost certain that the person coming was definitely a top master and would soon catch up with them.
Not daring to be negligent, Zui Jiu simply shouted: "Master, please quickly activate the mountain protection formation."
The abbot of Wenxian Temple is a Taoist with white hair and beard.
He was meditating and practicing, and he had already discovered it when Zuijiu just arrived.
His junior brother is a master of the Divine Transformation Realm, and there are only a handful of people in the entire Canglan Realm who can threaten him, but now he is in such a miserable state.
Moreover, the old Taoist priest could also feel that an extremely powerful force was approaching them at a very fast speed.
So as soon as Zuijiu finished speaking, the old Taoist flicked his whisk and said, "Wulian Tianzun."
Please activate the Wenxian Temple's mountain protection formation immediately.
"Huh?" Zheng Yi's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw this mountain protection formation.
He discovered that the mountain protection formation of Wenxian Temple seemed to have many similarities with the "Great Five Elements Birth and Death Sutra" he was practicing.
They all utilize the power of the five elements.
The only difference is that one is a mountain protection formation, and the other is a method of cultivation.
After the mountain protection formation was activated, Zui Jiu heaved a long sigh of relief, gathered all his spiritual power and said loudly: "All disciples below the peak of crystallization, return to your rooms immediately and wait for orders. Use the sound transmission talisman to notify those who have not returned yet not to come back for the time being and wait for the order from the main gate."
After he said this, Zheng Yi also saw the abbot of Wenxian Temple.
"Brother, what happened? Didn't you go to rescue people? Why did you return to Wenxian Temple? Who are the people chasing you?"
This old Taoist priest looked like a quiet and inactive master, but as soon as he opened his mouth, that aura suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Zheng Yi looked at the distracted Zuijiu and thought that they were indeed worthy of being brothers.
Zui Jiu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Brother, I don't know who is coming. But, he must be a top master, we must be careful to deal with him."
Zheng Yi rolled his eyes: "Senior Zuijiu, I think I know who is coming."
Before he finished speaking, Zuijiu grabbed Zheng Yi's wrist and asked murderously, "You know who it is? Then why didn't you tell me just now?"
The huge force coming from the opponent's hand made Zheng Yi feel as if his wrist was about to be crushed.
"Senior...Senior, I was just about to follow you, please let go."
The other party was a master of the Divine Transformation Realm. If he hadn't had a trace of rationality left, Zheng Yi's hand would probably have been crushed.
Zheng Yi turned his head and looked at the terrifying aura that was getting closer and closer, making him feel frightened.
"Such a terrifying master who wants to kill us at all costs."
"I think it should be Cang Yue Yan Huang?"
The old Taoist and Zuijiu were both shocked.
"What did you say?"
"He actually came!" (End of this chapter)
