Not long after walking, I saw a large piece of wasteland in the forest ahead. In the center of the wasteland, eight huge chains locked a huge well. The well was octagonal and was as high as a person, and each of the chains was as thick as a human thigh.
I don’t know how long it has been there, but the chains are all stained with rust.
Not far from the well, there is a huge black monument with three big characters engraved on it: Lock the Dragon Well!
When Li Tian came to the well, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew by, and he suddenly felt that the temperature around him had dropped a lot.
At this time, he finally saw clearly what the well looked like. It was made of square green bricks, and the green bricks were covered with moss.
The well has eight directions, and each side has a depression. Inside the depression are inlaid yellow talismans, eight in total, which look weird.
Lock the Dragon Well and lock the Dragon Well. Watching this battle is really like locking up a dragon.
Although he was very curious about this well, Li Tian did not stay longer and turned around to continue moving forward.
In the dense forest of the back mountain, there are several winding and crisscrossing paths. It is obvious that they were carved out by force because most of the students who went to the back mountain to do tasks.
But the deeper you go, the less traces of people disappear.
Although there were many snakes, insects, rats, and ants along the way, none of them could get into Li Tianshen. Looking at it, he had been walking for half an hour and still couldn't find any trace of Yun Zhi.
He suddenly recalled Ergou's words. Yun Zhi shouldn't have been back for a while. Has he left the area behind the academy?
Knowing that he was just wasting his time by touching blindly, he opened his divine wings again, flew into the air, and went deeper.
He looked down at the earth, waving his wings from time to time, and his purple wings soared in the night sky.
The boundless mountains of Mao'er Continent lie in the distance. It is true to say that you can see far when you stand high. Li Tian is at the foot of the mountain at this time. Flying high in the sky, he can feel the majestic momentum of the mountains even more.
.
Not long after, he saw a faint light flashing in the distance out of the corner of his eye, but when he looked, it was gone.
Without thinking too much, he left immediately.
After waiting nearby, he returned to the ground.
Only then did he realize that there were indeed traces of someone nearby! The surrounding tree trunks were covered with sword marks, and several trees had been cut in half.
Of course, he would not naively think that this was left over from the battle between humans and cultivators. After all, no cultivators used swords.
He immediately cheered up and followed the traces. Not far away, there was a deep pit, as if it had been struck by lightning. The surrounding area was filled with burnt brown matter, as well as some remnants of cloth and body parts.
Is that where the light just came from? Li Tian immediately had the answer in his mind.
As a result, he immediately quickened his pace, and his white plain clothes followed his figure, dancing in the wind in the dark night.
"Someone!"
After running for a few minutes, he finally heard movement. Under the darkness, he could barely make out the three people in front of him, standing not far away.
The three of them all looked miserable, one was missing an arm, and the other was missing a large piece of meat from his thigh. However, they seemed to be unaware of pain and fatigue, and were still searching for something in the forest.
"Damn it, he ran away again!"
"If the saint hadn't said he wanted to live, he would have been killed just now!"
"Who knew he had the means to counterattack before he died? Chase him quickly, he has run out of gas and won't be able to run very far."
"I really want to kill him for repeatedly ruining our important affairs."
"Stop complaining. The saint should have already gone to the front to intercept him. Let's go there quickly. As long as we catch him and go back, if you want to take revenge in the future, are you afraid that you won't have a chance?"
And while the three of them were talking, someone came up behind them unknowingly.
"Well, I'm sorry to bother you, but I'm lost. Can you give me some directions?"
The three people who were about to take action were startled by the sudden sound and immediately turned around and became alert.
"Who! Get out of here!"
The next moment, from the darkness in front of the three people's field of vision, a boy wearing white plain clothes walked out, with slightly narrowed eyes and a simple smile on his face.
Li Tian immediately raised his hands and said with a smile.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking for directions."
The three of them immediately secretly thought something was wrong. Was that person's reinforcements coming? Because they looked at Li Tian like a student from Lingtian Academy.
"Are you Ling Yunzhi's classmate?"
One of them has slowly stretched out his hand towards the saber at his side, as if he would draw the saber and slash at Li Tian if he disagreed.
The other two injured people also silently continued to work hard.
The smile on Li Tian's face remained unchanged, but his eyes narrowed deeper, and there was a hint of murderous intent in the slits in his eyes.
Sure enough, as he thought, they were chasing Yun Zhi!
And there is also very bad news, that is, Yun Zhi was seriously injured, and the saint mentioned by the other party has already gone to intercept him, so he cannot waste too much time.
He walked forward slowly towards the three of them.
"You see, it's quite cold at night. Since we are destined to meet each other, I'll treat you to a hot bath."
Seeing Li Tian's actions, the three of them immediately shouted as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
"do not move!"
But Li Tian still pretended not to hear and continued to move forward with a smile.
The three of them immediately wanted to take action. The man standing at the front was about to pull out the sword at his side, but his movements were inexplicably frozen in place. The three of them were entangled in a purple silk thread at some point.
I couldn't move for a while!
A purple sword light flashed, and the injured two people watched helplessly as the head of the person in front left his body. The blood, under the purple light, splashed everywhere, spraying onto their horrified faces, leaving only
A touch of warmth.
"Do you like a hot bath like this?"
Then, Li Tian's voice, like a ghost locking his soul, reached their ears again.
The two of them felt a chill in their hearts. At this moment, they finally tore apart the threads of the God of Freedom. Without hesitation, they turned around and ran away, without any thought of revenge for their companions.
However, the two of them had not run very far before they were completely submerged in a burst of purple light from the explosion. Their flesh and blood flew everywhere, leaving them no longer human.
The purple light disappeared and returned to Li Tian's body again.
He walked forward slowly and saw that the broken body was still squirming and still had a breath left.
"You...who are you..."
Li Tian had already put away his smile at this moment and passed by him, leaving one last sentence.
"I am Ling Yunzhi's eldest brother. I will kill anyone who wants to harm him!"
Then, an invisible purple needle instantly penetrated the man's head, taking away the last trace of life from his body.
the other side.
"Ling Yunzhi, I finally... caught you!"
At this moment, Yun Zhi was panting heavily and leaning weakly against a tree. Blood was all over his body, his eyes were tightly closed, and two streaks of blood seeped out from his eyes and flowed onto his face.
In front of him was a woman with waist-length hair, a silk gown, bare feet, and a small golden bell tied to her ankle. As her feet swayed, there was a crisp jingle.
Voices.
She came three meters in front of Yun Zhi and stopped approaching, with a hint of excitement on her face.
As for why he didn't dare to get closer, he was worried that Yun Zhi would make another deadly counterattack.
"Witch, if you can, kill me!"
"Otherwise, one day I will cut you into pieces to avenge my brother!"
Yun Zhi was full of anger. If he still had three parts of his strength, he would not hesitate to fight the person in front of him. However, he was really exhausted at this moment. He had been hunted for a day and a night, and he was already exhausted.
All his physical strength and trump cards were taken away.
Seeing that he was almost running to the back of the college and was finally caught up, he had already resigned himself to his fate.
"Ling Yunzhi, why are you so angry because a good-for-nothing brother died? Otherwise, if you call me good sister, I will let you go, okay?"
"In this way, although you don't have an elder brother, you have an extra sister, hehe."
Shangguan ignored the furious Yun Zhi and still teased him with a smile. When he wasn't paying attention, he stepped forward and touched his pretty face.
"Why are you so beautiful? I really can't bear to kill you."
She smiled coquettishly while teasing Yun Zhi.
"Go away! If you want to kill me, kill me. Don't touch me with your dirty hands!"
Yun Zhi became even more angry. Now that he couldn't see and had no means of resistance, he really had no choice but to let him have his way.
Shangguan was not angry at all and touched Yun Zhi twice more...
"Don't worry, I won't kill you, I will take you back. We are short of a holy son, so you can be the holy son and saint. From now on, we can be together every day, hehe
.”
Yun Zhi immediately spat out a mouthful of blood in front of his eyes and his face became ferocious.
"Hehehe, if I don't die, will you be able to sleep peacefully? Do you really dare to take me back? When I get better, the first thing I will do is kill you!"
"Witch!!! You killed so many people! You killed my elder brother! You will not die a good death!"
Shangguan gently wiped the blood on his face, still not looking angry, and just sighed softly.
"Do you know what we are going to do? In the future, our Tianyi will surpass Lingyun City and Tiandou City and become the true overlord of Mao'er Continent."
"If you are the Holy Son, you will be able to take charge of the Heavenly Way in the future and become the leader among millions of people."
"But if you still persist in opposing us, then there is only one way for you, and that is death."
"The establishment of a new royal power is always accompanied by countless corpses. Why should you care about those eliminated wastes? Isn't it just for yourself that people live?"
And Yun Zhi seemed to have heard some big joke.
"Hahahaha, you stinking ditch rats still want to dominate! It really makes me laugh! You will always live in the shadows, and when you come out, everyone will shout and beat you! Why do you?"
Shangguan suddenly had a hint of pride on his face and continued.
"Why? Just because we have mastered the secret of immortality!"
"I can't talk to you more. When you become the Holy Son, you will know everything. How about it? Come back with me. I have been tolerant enough for you. You should also be aware of the current affairs. If you die, you will have nothing.
Already."
Yun Zhi seemed to have thought of something and was immediately shocked.
"Did you steal the Bodhi tree?"
He remembered that after the incident in Ping'an Town a year ago, the Bodhi tree in Ping'an Town disappeared. Thinking of this, it might be Tianyi Dao's doing.
Shangguan didn't expect that the other party actually knew about the bodhi tree, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"You actually know Bodhi Tree? You went to Ping'an Town a year ago? No wonder, I should have thought it was you who came back alive from Hou Qingbai."
"It's just that you made a mistake. The bodhi tree belonged to our Tianyi family twenty years ago. A year ago, it was only lent to Hou Qingbai for use. Since it has been used up, it will naturally return to its original owner."
"Since you know about the bodhi tree, I don't need to say more. I believe you know its uses. Immortality is within your reach. What do you think, do you want to be a saint?"
She continued to persuade. She believed that no one could resist the temptation of immortality, and Ling Yunzhi was no exception.
Sure enough, there was a hint of hesitation between Yun Zhi's furrowed brows, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, he said, "Okay, I am willing to go back with you, but I am very seriously injured now. Please give me some healing medicine first, and I will leave with you when I feel better."
Only then did Shangguan smile.
"This is the right thing. We will live forever together in the future, and this huge world will be in our hands. Wouldn't that be great?"
After saying that, she took out a bottle of pills from her arms, poured one out, and fed it into Yun Zhi's mouth.
Yun Zhi didn't hesitate and swallowed it directly.
"Give me five minutes and let me meditate."
After that, he sat down on the ground without waiting for the official's consent.
There was a hint of tenderness in Shangguan's eyes, and he also sat next to him.
"Don't say five minutes, five days will do. No one will come here anyway."
As early as a year ago when she met Ling Yunzhi, she had already developed a crush on him.
During this year, their Tianyiyi's actions were sabotaged by Yun Zhi many times. Logically speaking, they wanted to kill him, but she saved them all as a saint.
Even at this moment, she even thought about the name of the child!
"Ling Yunzhi, you are so beautiful. The Holy Lord will definitely like you very much. I believe that with your talent, you will be able to lead the entire Tianyi to glory."
At this moment, Shangguan seemed to have turned into a fan girl, deeply attracted by Yun Zhi.
Yun Zhi, who was meditating, just frowned and had no intention of paying any attention to her.
Five minutes later, Yun Zhi let out a long breath. At this moment, he had recovered a little. Although he still couldn't open his eyes, he could barely move.
"Yao...Shangguan, come here and help me."
He wanted to stand up, but sat back down tremblingly, as if he had not recovered much, and called Shangguan beside him to help him.
Seeing his weak look, Shang Guan was of course extremely happy. As the bell rang, she stood up and walked towards Yun Zhi.
But as soon as she reached Yun Zhi's side, a sword beam almost stabbed her chest! She narrowly dodged it.
"What a pity. I can't help it if I can't see it. Otherwise, this sword could kill you, hahaha."
Yun Zhi had a sad smile on his face, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground again.
He had never thought about following Shangguan. Everything he had just done was just a show for the other party to see, so that the other party could relax their vigilance.
It's just that he underestimated the severity of his injuries. With his current self, how could he possibly succeed in a sneak attack?
