Chapter 913: Stealing the country and enriching private interests
"Fengming Houfu is so brave!"
[Qinglong Celestial Eye] After taking a peek, Chu Chen's face was filled with shock.
If he read it correctly, the "little golden dragon" in Xiaochi Snake Mountain is a small dragon vein, a golden dragon transformed by the luck of Dachang Tianchao.
Although Song Jian's [Blue Dragon Sword] has not yet become a magic weapon and transformed into a spiritual fetus, [Liukjia Eight Gods Blue Dragon Sword] is an immortal sword and is extremely spiritual.
Previously, Song Jian opened the [Baiyun Cave] in Xiaochi Snake Mountain and practiced cultivation in secret. His [Qinglong Sword] discovered the secret. He even thought that the immortal sword had a spirit and must have reminded Song Jian.
It's a pity that Song Jian's practice was not enough and he didn't find the hidden dragon in the mountain. He didn't know that a new dragon vein was born in the Xiaochi Snake Mountain.
In a chaotic era where the world is divided into four parts and heroes are vying for the throne, all forces support the dragon's veins, gather their luck, and compete for hegemony in the world.
In the current era of Dachang Celestial Dynasty, all the dragons in the world are heading towards Changdu.
Chu Chen did not doubt that Fengminghou Mansion and Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen had the intention to rebel.
After all, Xiao Chi Snake Mountain is just a small dragon vein, a small dragon, and it is still in the land of Zhongzhou, too close to the imperial capital, and has no potential to become a big dragon. If it rebels, Fengminghou Mansion is a little short of strength.
However, to confine oneself in secret, to hide one's dragon veins secretly, even if one does not have the strength to rebel, is still equivalent to rebellion.
There is no other reason. The dragon vein and the golden dragon of luck are the manifestations of the divine artifacts of the country. They are the divine objects that symbolize the country, the country, and the well-being of all people.
The main reason why the imperial capital of Zhongzhou has the gathering of spiritual veins and unparalleled wealth is that the dragon veins of the world worship it and are favored by heaven and earth.
By controlling the Dragon Vein, the treasury of Dachang Celestial Dynasty's Immortal Court can be abundant all year round, and it has the foundation to cultivate the army, support the Immortal Court monks, and fight against the devil.
The more dragon veins there are, the stronger the destiny of the country, and the stronger the Dachang Dynasty. Fifty years later, the scale of ascension to gods will also increase, and the number of ascension places will increase, complementing each other.
In other words, dragon veins are a sacred object shared by the world.
The "little dragon" in Xiaochi Snake Mountain was suppressed by the divine pillar and suffered terribly. It was obvious that the Tianyi Hou Mansion was not just suppressing and trapping it, but intended to refine it, devour it, and use it for personal practice.
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to extract enough [Xiantian Yi Qi] to upgrade the Taoist practice to the second level without opening up the [Xuan Guan Yi Qi] and entering the Innate Infinite Way. However, there is Qingwu Kanyu method, which can be practiced
By turning the dragon veins into one's own use, one can hope to explore this mysterious realm.
In order to achieve personal enlightenment, plundering the fortune of the great dynasty and harming the welfare of all people is a typical act of stealing the country by "harming the public and enriching private interests".
Even Mr. Ming Jing, the emperor of Dachang, who was blessed with the golden dragon of the country's fortune and destiny, did not refine and devour the "dragon vein" to help him achieve personal enlightenment.
"This Tianyihou..."
Chu Chen took a deep breath, shocked in his heart by Tianyi Hou's boldness and madness.
Once confirmed, it would be a major crime of decapitation and annihilation of the nine clans.
I have to say that this further proves the power of the little devil's "golden words". A casual word from him may very well be a punishment from heaven, which is so terrifying.
"Senior Brother Chu, what happened?"
Song Jian saw Chu Chen's shocked expression and was secretly curious. Even though he was at war with Tianyi Marquis, Senior Brother Chu's expression had not changed, but now his expression changed drastically.
Chu Chen shook his head:
"I'm not sure yet, but I probably understand why Marquis Tianyi cares so much about Little Red Snake Mountain.
Previously, Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen was decisive in killing Deacon Wei and Butler Gou on the spot. It was not a matter of showing him what to do, but he himself could not calm down his anger.
Doing this kind of decapitation was originally a good thing, but because of the stupid and greedy servant, he attracted the attention of a third-level monk with great supernatural powers. The risk increased greatly. He took on the identity of "Tianyihou Nie Zhen" and had to fly into a rage.
.
The little kid also heard the noise and came out, very curious:
"Senior brother, what is that little dragon?"
Chu Chen glanced at the little ghost boy and did not answer, but praised:
"Little devil, you are really amazing at the magical power of ear report, and you have made a great contribution again."
"Ah~ I was sleeping just now, why did I make meritorious service again?"
The little kid took the incense given by his senior brother with a confused look on his face, feeling surprised and happy.
Chu Chen didn't return to Song Jian, you little devil.
[Qinglong Tianmu] didn't see it very clearly, and he couldn't be 100% sure at the moment.
This matter is of great importance.
It was related to the Dragon Vein and the Fengming Hou Mansion. If something went wrong, it would be a lot of fun. He was not sure and couldn't make a decision right away.
Fortunately, the Little Red Snake Mountain was not far away, so he rushed to confirm, and it wouldn't take long.
If there is some rare and precious fairy treasure in Xiaochi Snake Mountain, then forget it. Chu Chen is not a person who goes back on his words. Since he has come forward to negotiate with Fengming Hou Mansion on behalf of Song Jian, he will not be greedy.
However, if the Fengming Hou Mansion really has the "Dragon Veins" secretly hidden, then it goes without saying that this matter is not a personal vendetta, but a major matter related to the Dachang Dynasty. He must have reported to Mr. Mingjing and reported to the Immortal Court, and business matters have been dealt with.
"Junior Brother Song, please wait here for a while. I'll be back as soon as I can."
Chu Chen gave an order to Song Jian, and then he picked up the little ghost boy, the little Qinglong boy, and disappeared from the top of the mountain.
...
After a stick of incense.
With Chu Chen's magical power of shrinking into an inch, he could be hundreds of miles away in just a few breaths.
However, in order not to frighten the snake, Chu Chen did not use [Shrink the Ground to an Inch], but used the ordinary stealth escape method to rush on. When he arrived not far from Xiaochi Snake Mountain, he even used [White Crane and Purple Zhi Escape] to turn into a white crane.
Soaring above the Little Red Snake Mountains, overlooking the terrain.
Chu Chen is not proficient in the art of Qingwu Kanyu's fortune-telling, but he has reached the third level of Taoist cultivation and can draw parallels. Even if he is not proficient, he is still somewhat enthusiastic.
However, Fengming Hou Mansion obviously used some means to cover up the mountains and terrain of Xiaochi Snake Mountain. With his Qingwukanyu technique of mapping the land, no clues could be discerned.
Chu Chen was not surprised. After a crane chirped, the white crane he transformed swooped down and fell into the forest.
As a burst of white mist blew by, the white crane disappeared and turned into a green grass again, escaping into the mountains.
Going deep into the Little Red Snake Mountain, Chu Chen soon discovered that the Little Red Snake Mountain was heavily guarded. There were monks from the Fengming Hou Mansion patrolling the mountain everywhere to prevent outsiders from prying.
In the mountains, there are many hidden formations and restrictions.
Either to cover up, or to trap and kill, the security is extremely tight, and the formation is huge.
"Fengming Hou Mansion really has something in his heart!"
When Chu Chen saw this battle, he secretly speculated.
Over the years, Chu Chen has learned about military formations and how to arrange them. His skills in formations are now much better than before. The restrictions on ordinary formations are not an obstacle to him.
On the contrary, he followed the formation restrictions and deduced, groping little by little.
The denser and more powerful the formation restrictions are, the more likely it is the place where the "little dragon manifests" in Xiaochi Snake Mountain.
About an hour later.
Chu Chen, who turned into green grass, groped all the way, breaking through the formation, and finally found the core area restricted by the formation.
"clank!"
In the dark, his fairy sword [Qinglong Sword] made a clanging sound, which seemed to remind Chu Chen of something.
Chu Chen, who turned into green grass, was overjoyed. Immediately, he did not hesitate, no longer restrained his aura, and released his powerful spiritual power, covering Little Red Snake Mountain bit by bit.
"Ooohhoho!"
The next moment, painful and wailing dragon roars resounded.
Sure enough, Chu Chen caught a glimpse of a small golden dragon in the Little Red Snake Mountain. It was nailed to the mountain by eighteen sacred pillars. It could not move and let out painful whines.
This time, after close contact, he truly felt the "mighty and majestic" power of luck.
"hiss!"
Chu Chen took a deep breath, it was indeed a golden dragon of luck.
Fengminghou Mansion... Tianyihou, you are so brave.
What shocked him even more was that right now, the magical power of luck in this "Little Golden Dragon of Luck" was rapidly weakening.
As an upper-level third-level powerhouse, its soul and spiritual consciousness are extremely powerful, and it can keenly perceive subtle changes.
Vaguely, it seemed that someone was frantically devouring and refining this "little golden dragon of luck".
Dragon veins are divine objects of heaven and earth, which can be devoured and refined, and have incredible magical effects.
However, the "lucky little golden dragon" in front of us has obviously not yet fully formed, and has not reached the "hidden dragon emerging from the abyss" pattern. It will devour and plunder, which is undoubtedly a waste of natural resources.
Obviously, it was probably because he interfered with the Liu family, Baiyundong, Fengminghou Mansion, and Tianyihou that they were anxious for a while, for fear of attracting his attention and causing trouble, so they hurriedly took action.
Just when Chu Chen was about to take action, kill the Dragon-Suppressing Divine Pillar, rescue the lucky little golden dragon, and clean up the situation, a panicked and angry roar came from the mountain.
"Who! Who is peeping!"
The person who roared was none other than Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen.
At this moment, his body appeared in the Little Red Snake Mountain, revealing his figure.
For a moment, the two people's spiritual powers met, and they recognized both sides at once.
"It's you, Chu Chen..."
Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen's face was full of fear, his throat was bitter, and his face was pale.
He didn't need to explain the scene in front of him. No matter what, he could not absolve himself of the grave crime of hiding the dragon's veins secretly and stealing the country and enriching himself.
Everyone is a sensible person. As soon as they saw this situation, they knew what happened and there was no excuse at all.
Xu Shi knew the seriousness of the matter, and Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen's face turned extremely ugly:
"Chu Chen, it is in vain that you are a high-ranking Taoist. You have clearly agreed that you will get the money in full, but you are so greedy that you secretly come to Xiaochi Snake Mountain to take a peek."
At this moment, Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen felt angry in his heart. He not only hated Chu Chen for "not practicing martial ethics" and not keeping his promises, but he also hated those bastards like Butler Gou and Deacon Wei who failed to achieve anything but failed.
Everything was fine at first, but the Liu family gave in and forcefully forced their families to be destroyed and desperation. For no reason, they invited a third-grade great magical power from the Immortal Palace, causing secrets to be leaked and causing death.
The anger in his heart was difficult to describe in words.
"Hmph~ I'm not as mean as you."
Chu Chen snorted coldly and said disdainfully:
"As the saying goes, don't let others know, unless you don't do it yourself. My junior brother Song Jian has learned the magic of the fairy sword. The magic sword has a spirit. He has long known that dragon veins were born here. I happened to discover it today. I came here to take a look, and then I discovered that this place
Sure enough, a dragon vein was born."
After saying that, Chu Chen's expression darkened and he shouted sternly:
"Marquis Tianyi, you secretly trapped the dragon's veins, devoured and refined them, and stole the country to enrich yourself. How brave you are!"
This roar, like the divine thunder from the sky, resounded throughout the mountain.
Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen looked extremely ugly. His secret was discovered, and things seemed to have reached the worst situation. Not only would he be unlucky, but the entire Fengming Hou Mansion would also be implicated, and the whole family would be overthrown in an instant.
"I..."
Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen looked pale. He wanted to defend himself, but he seemed pale and speechless.
"No... we can't let the news leak out!"
Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen's face was full of madness, and thoughts of survival arose in his heart.
A year ago, after he set his sights on Little Red Snake Mountain, he deployed numerous formations and restrictions in the mountain, which had the ability to block the secrets of heaven. Now, if he could kill Chu Chen, he would hopefully be able to keep the secret.
This can be said to be his only chance of survival.
As soon as he thought of this, Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen pinched the magic formula with his hand and looked at Chu Chen with murderous intent:
"Boy, you deserve to die!"
The next moment, the wind and clouds in the Little Red Snake Mountain changed color, formations of light pillars rose into the sky, the barrier was born, and the hidden formation was activated, completely covering the entire Little Red Snake Mountain.
When Chu Chen saw this scene, his expression did not change.
When he sneaked into Little Red Snake Mountain, he secretly took a look at the formation restrictions around him. As a military monk, he was proficient in formations. He was confident that he could easily escape from the formation, left Little Red Snake Mountain, and reported the news to Mr. Mingjing and the Immortal.
court.
However, he was in no hurry to escape.
In front of his eyes, Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen was clearly in a state of complete madness. If he escaped, he would not allow the opponent to jump over the wall and use more brutal methods to devour and plunder, or even completely destroy the "Little Golden Dragon of Luck".
Chu Chen is not an ordinary monk who has just entered the third level of great magical powers. Although he has just broken through less than a year ago, his Taoist magical powers are definitely at the level of the State Mudu Tuan. Among the third-level great supernatural powers, he is also the best.
Fear of Tianyihou Nie Zhen.
It's too late to say it, but it's soon.
After the two of them finished speaking, both parties agreed and took action without saying a word.
Chu Chen was concerned about the "Little Golden Dragon of Luck" and was afraid that the other party would jump over the wall and destroy the Golden Dragon of Luck belonging to the entire Dachang Dynasty.
Immediately, without saying a word, he held the sword formula in his hand and showed off his power with the [Green Dragon Sword] in the sword case behind him.
"Hush, rest, rest!"
Thousands of sword energy soared into the sky, roaring towards the dragon-suppressing pillar in the mountain.
The Qinglong Sword Qi is transformed by the power of law. It contains the divine power of heaven and earth. It is warmed by the Qinglong Sword Pill. Its power is extraordinary. Although the "Suppressing Dragon Divine Pillar" is protected by the power of the barrier, it cannot be controlled by the unparalleled sword Qi.
Under the indiscriminate bombardment, each of the town's dragon pillars was crumbling.
Seeing this scene, Marquis Tianyi did not take action to protect the Dragon Suppressing Pillar.
He knew the priorities of the matter. For him, the most urgent delay right now was to kill Chu Chen and keep the secret.
This Chu Chen has just broken through to the third level and has not accumulated enough knowledge. He has every hope of killing the opponent.
At that moment, Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen took action.
"Suffer death!"
Marquis Tianyi was born in a noble family, he practiced martial arts and was famous for his magical powers. His body skills were ghostly, and he appeared in front of Chu Chen in the blink of an eye.
The next moment, the two swords in his hands were like the moon.
The surrounding sky and earth changed color, as if a red moon was rising over Little Red Snake Mountain.
A flash of knife light disappeared.
This sword freezes time and space, and is incredibly fast.
Chu Chen was always on guard, but he didn't panic and used his hands to perform tricks.
For a moment, the golden lotus crown on his head glowed with dazzling golden light.
Immediately, a golden lotus appeared at his feet, covered with golden light and glowing with divine fire.
Phew!
The Red Moon Sword Qi, which contains the power of the terrifying law, struck the golden lotus. Instead of cutting through it, it turned into two sword qi, which spattered out.
Boom!
Not far away, five or six peaks cracked in half and crashed to the ground, making a loud sound like the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. Thick smoke billowed up.
Fortunately, in the end, the formation barrier blocked the sword energy, preventing it from continuing to wreak havoc on the surrounding world.
Seeing this scene, Chu Chen's expression did not change, and his face was full of joy.
For the same magic weapon of transformation, the stronger the power of the soul, the greater the power of the magic weapon.
After officially breaking through to the third level, the defensive power of [Shangqing Golden Lotus Crown] was much stronger than when he was at the fourth level.
To a certain extent, among upper-level three-level experts, the power of the soul is no less important than mana.
As the saying goes, people with good skills are bold.
He was protected by the [Golden Lotus Crown of the Supreme Purity], and ignored Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen's intervention, and forcibly destroyed the Dragon Suppressing Pillar with the [Green Dragon Sword].
In other words, during the fight between the two of them, six dragon-suppressing pillars had been destroyed, and the lucky little golden dragon was able to get out of trouble and escape into the mountain.
In other words, he has no worries now
"Transformation defense magic weapon! Such a strong power of the soul!"
On the other side, Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen’s expression changed drastically, and his face was full of horror:
"Didn't you just break through to the third level, why is the power of the soul so powerful..."
Chu Chen snorted coldly, ignored it, and pointed the Qinglong Sword in his hand at Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen:
"Thieves who steal the country, I will use your sword as a sacrifice today!"
