Chapter five hundred and sixty-four: fierce battle, rich spoils! Ask for a monthly ticket]
An extremely exciting and dangerous duel between strong men broke out in this wilderness. There was only one witness, and that was Xiao Ying, a Taoist monk who was protected by Zhou Yang behind him.
Wu Biao, the "Tattooed Massacre", was notorious for being able to live well after committing all kinds of evil deeds. Naturally, he was not an ordinary person.
Its true strength cannot be measured by the seventh level of Jindan cultivation.
It was only after Zhou Yang fought with this person that he learned that this person had actually cultivated two offensive magical powers to a small level, and these two offensive magical powers complemented each other. When used together, they were so powerful that he could handle them extremely well.
Hard work.
Moreover, this man has been burning, killing and looting for many years, and his net worth is also extremely rich. All the magical tools he uses are of high quality, which is not much worse than Zhou Yang.
More importantly, this person has extremely rich experience in fighting, extremely versatile methods, and extremely sophisticated vision. Zhou Yang's "Soul-Captivating Orb" and "Shattering Gong", two magical weapons, have never been used against him.
have any effect.
The strength of his opponent made Zhou Yang dare not hide any more clumsiness, and he was forced to use all his methods.
Zhou Yang felt tremendous pressure, and so was Wu Biao, the "tattooed man who slaughtered" him.
Although before he came to rob and kill Zhou Yang, he already knew from his employer that Zhou Yang was difficult to deal with and his strength should not be measured by his superficial cultivation.
But when he actually got into contact with Zhou Yang and faced Zhou Yang's weird and ferocious magic weapons and magical powers, he also broke out in cold sweats on his back, and felt that he was only one step away from death several times.
If he had encountered such a powerful target in the past, he would have decisively chosen to give up and would never have been entangled with it for a long time.
Wu Biao was well aware of his notoriety, so once he took action, he would never stay in a certain place for more than half a day, lest he be entangled and recruit helpers to surround and kill him.
But this time, he knew that Zhou Yang would definitely have no reinforcements.
Moreover, the more powerful Zhou Yang is, the greater the harvest he will gain from killing Zhou Yang. After finishing this job, he will no longer have to take risks before reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
The most important thing was that he didn't have to worry about Zhou Yang running away, because his Taoist companion was by his side. If he ran away, it would be equivalent to abandoning the Taoist companion. He didn't believe Zhou Yang could do such a thing.
Zhou Yang really couldn't do anything to abandon his Taoist companion Xiao Ying and run away. Moreover, although Wu Biao was powerful, he had not exceeded his coping limit.
If he wasn't distracted by protecting Taoist companion Xiao Ying, he wouldn't be afraid of this person at all.
"Use my blood to burn my soul, green blood to burn my soul, it's done!"
Suddenly, Zhou Yang, who had been fighting Wu Biao for nearly half a day, formed a magic seal on his hand, and a green soul fire ignited between his eyebrows.
boom!
In an instant, the mana aura on Zhou Yang's body surged, reaching the sixth level of the golden elixir.
After obtaining the "Blue Blood Burning Soul Technique" in the Kunxu Realm, Zhou Yang used it for the first time, and he was very satisfied with the result.
He just burned 20% of his essence and blood, and paid the price of ten years of weakened soul afterwards, in exchange for two levels of improvement in cultivation. It was not a loss!
This time, there was only one level of cultivation difference between him and Wu Biao, and the disadvantage in this aspect was no longer obvious.
"Die!"
The skyrocketing mana caused Zhou Yang's confidence to skyrocket. He raised his hand and shook it, and a golden divine thunder fell from the sky and struck Wu Biao on the opposite side.
Then the golden flames on his body soared, turning into a golden flame dragon and swooping towards Wu Biao.
These tricks had been used in previous battles, Wu Biao didn't care much, and when he saw Zhou Yang using the desperate secret technique of "Blue Blood Burning Soul Technique", he felt relieved.
This proves that Zhou Yang has really exhausted his means and can only rely on this desperate secret technique to temporarily increase his magic power to continue to support himself.
After killing this kid and getting the reward, I will...
wrong!
Wu Biao, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly seemed to sense something, and his expression suddenly changed.
But everything seems to be too late.
I saw a flash of fire, and two golden firelights suddenly burst out from Zhou Yang's eyes, and instantly sank into his body. For a moment, his soul that was fused with the golden elixir seemed to be clamped by a red-hot tongs.
The pain was so painful that he screamed "Ah".
At the same time, a golden token suddenly flew out of Zhou Yang's hand, exploded into pieces, and turned into a golden sword energy that shot towards Wu Biao.
And he himself also shook his hands into a fist and punched Wu Biao hard, creating a blue-gold dragon shadow.
All of this happened between lightning and flint. Because Wu Biao was attacked by his soul, he had no time to make other responses. He could only concentrate his magic power and inject it into his protective magical power, and was suddenly hit by those attacks.
The golden sword energy was so sharp that it chopped down the defensive weapon Wu Biao used to protect himself in the sky on the spot. It also hit his protective magical power with all its remaining strength, causing the protective light shield to be filled with cracks and almost shattered.
The blue-gold dragon shadow that rushed after him completed a decisive blow, easily shattering Wu Biao's protective light shield that had reached its limit, and fell on him.
Even so, Wu Biao was not dead, because he was still wearing an extremely precious protective inner armor, which helped him block most of the power of the green-gold dragon shadow.
But after losing the protection of his magic weapon and body-protecting powers, he faced the golden pagoda that suddenly moved over his head and opened its door. However, his body staggered and he was directly sucked into it.
Since Zhou Yang refined the natal magic weapon "Qianyang Golden Pagoda", the two golden elixir stage monks who were sucked into it were all easily captured by him.
Although Wu Biao was powerful, he couldn't make any waves after entering the golden pagoda.
As a suppressing and confining magic weapon, the most powerful magical power of the "Qianyang Golden Pagoda" is the ability to suppress and confine. There is a kind of restriction called "Soul-Removing Golden Light", which is specifically aimed at the soul of the monk trapped in it.
There is another kind of restriction called "body-fixing golden light", which is specifically targeted at the physical body. The longer it is illuminated by the golden light, the harder it will be to move it.
Therefore, once you fall into the golden pagoda, unless your cultivation level is much higher than that of Zhou Yang and this magical weapon, or you have some special soul-related secret skills, you will want to self-destruct the golden elixir and the self-destruction element.
It’s not easy to have a baby.
As for this natal magic weapon, which is made of "Nine Heavens Mysterious Gold" as the main material, even if someone explodes the golden elixir inside, it will not cause irreparable damage to the magic weapon.
Of course, the above functions are only useful to monks below the level of True Immortal in the Tribulation Stage. Once you reach the level of True Immortal in the Tribulation Stage, you can cultivate the True Immortal Dharma Body and the True Immortal Yuan Shen, even if you are trapped in the seventh-level "Qianyang Golden Pagoda"
", the effect of the forbidden laws inside will be greatly weakened, making it impossible for them to lose the power to resist.
But no matter what, the power of the "Qianyang Golden Pagoda" is completely worthy of Zhou Yang's efforts and sacrifices in refining it, and it will definitely become famous in the world of immortality as he grows in the future.
After suppressing Wu Biao who was trapped inside, Zhou Yang quickly stopped performing the "Blue Blood Burning Soul Technique", then put away the various magical weapons left by Wu Biao, and quickly left the battlefield with his Taoist companion Xiao Ying.
After galloping all the way until he could no longer hold on any longer and had to rest, Zhou Yang left Xiangyun and asked Taoist companion Xiao Ying to protect him. Then he sat cross-legged on the spot and took the elixir to heal his injuries.
After three days and three nights passed like this, he felt a little better and woke up from his meditation.
"Husband, you finally woke up!"
Seeing Zhou Yang wake up, Xiao Ying, who had been guarding him nervously, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked about his injuries with a concerned look on her face.
"There's nothing serious about my husband. It's just that the essence and blood are excessively lost, and the spirit is weak and uncomfortable. It will be fine after a period of rest."
Zhou Yang didn't want his fellow Taoists to worry, so he didn't tell the truth.
The real situation is that because the "Blue Blood Soul Burning Technique" will burn the soul when used, if he cannot find those magical elixirs that can replenish the soul and strengthen the soul to take them to make up for the source of the burning soul, it will be difficult to improve his cultivation in the future.
But he still thinks it's all worth it.
No matter how hard it is to find the elixir that can replenish the spirit and strengthen the soul, as long as you are willing to pay the price, you will surely find it.
But if he had not used the "Blue Blood Burning Soul Technique" at that time to make a quick decision, the longer it was delayed, the more likely it was that he would be defeated in the end.
Although Xiao Ying didn't know the real story, she felt extremely uncomfortable when she saw Zhou Yang's depressed look. She couldn't help but cry with self-blame: "It's all my fault, it's my fault that I have troubled my husband.
If you were not my concubine, how could the Liu family hire a villain like [Tattooed Man Slaughter] Wu Biao to rob and kill my husband!"
She was not stupid. Through Zhou Yang's questioning before the battle, she had already guessed how "Tattooed Man Slaughter" Wu Biao found the two of them.
"Fool, this matter is not as simple as you think. If it is just for you, a fourth-level alchemist, the Liu family cannot spend a lot of money to hire a master like [Tattooed Man Slaughter] Wu Biao. I believe the Liu family doesn't have that either.
Ability to get on the line with Wu Biao."
"Only the Guo family, only the Guo family of Tongcheng, a family with a deep foundation in the [Liuyun Merchant Alliance], can hook up with [Tattooed Man Slaughterer] Wu Biao and lure him to rob and kill him as his husband.
The Liu family was probably bewitched and coerced by them and had to help them monitor you!"
"My husband is also looking down on the Guo family. I only met you briefly and used another appearance. I didn't expect that they found out the basis of this, and then used you to set up such a trap for my husband."
A set!"
Zhou Yang gently opened his hands and took the crying Taoist monk into his arms to comfort her. He told her his speculation. At the end of the sentence, his face turned cold and he said bitterly: "Just wait, this matter is not over yet.
If there is a chance in the future, my husband will definitely repay this debt with interest from the Guo and Liu families!"
It was a long night and many dreams, and Zhou Yang did not bother to rest and recover from his injuries. He pushed himself all the way to Xianyang City. It was not until he entered Xianyang City that he truly breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter how declining Xuanyang Immortal Sect is now, Xianyang City is one of their signatures, and the security inside it can be completely trusted.
Once here, even if his identity is completely exposed, Zhou Yang believes that Xuanyang Immortal Sect can protect him.
At this time, Lu Xuewei and others were still on the road but had not arrived, so Zhou Yang sent a messenger Feijian to Master Qingyang and informed him of his arrival in Xianyang City.
Since returning from the "Qiongtian Fairyland", he finally gained the right to communicate directly with Master Qingyang. This special messenger flying sword in his hand was when Master Qingyang specially asked Xuanyang Immortal Sect to inform him when he was in Liuyun Fairy City.
personnel transferred to him.
After receiving Feijian's message from Zhou Yang, Master Qingyang also paid great attention to it, and immediately left Xuanyang Immortal Sect in person to visit Xianyang City.
At this time, the news of the fall of the "Splitting Heaven Demon" has spread throughout the Liuyun Continent cultivation world. The "no-foot order" for Master Qingyang and other Nascent Soul Stage monks has finally been lifted. They don't have to go out and have to be careful of being demonized at all times.
Head attack.
"How could it be like this? With your ability, I can force you to become such a monk, I'm afraid you are not an unknown person!"
In Xianyang City, because Zhou Yang did not explain his injury during the summons, Master Qingyang frowned at his current state and was quite surprised when he saw him.
"It's true that he is not an unknown person. [Tattooed Man Slaughter] Senior Wu Biao must have heard of it, right? This junior was forced by this person to use desperate secret techniques that led to this!"
Zhou Yang smiled bitterly, and told the truth how he and the Guo family had a grudge, how they were robbed and killed, and what he had speculated.
"I see. No wonder you did this. That [Tattooed Man Slaughter] Wu Biao is quite famous. In the past, a ninth-level Golden Core monk came out to ambush him, but he ran away. I didn't expect that he would fall into your hands."
inside!"
Master Qingyang nodded for a while, and was quite surprised that Zhou Yang was able to capture "Tattooed Man Butcher" Wu Biao alive. Then he shook his head and said: "As for the Guo family, they know [Tattooed Man Butcher] Wu Biao
After falling into your hands, I'm afraid they will be too scared to go out. If you give them a chance to reconcile, I estimate that they will immediately offer you a heavy gift and ask for your forgiveness."
After finishing speaking, he said with a hint of ridicule: "These [Liuyun Merchant Alliance] family sects all have the same virtue. When dealing with their enemies, they first see if they can kill them. If they can't kill them, they will use merchants' methods to make money and avoid disasters. If they don't,
I have no choice but to dare to fight to the end!"
From what Zhou Yang heard from his words, it seemed that the Xuanyang Immortal Sect had fought with the "Liuyun Merchant Alliance" before, and seemed to have won.
Of course, these have nothing to do with him. After listening to Master Qingyang's words, he just sneered and said: "I almost caused the death of this junior and my Taoist companion. How can such a big hatred be offset by losing money and avoiding disaster? I will have a chance in the future."
I will go to them to repay the debt!"
He has the kind of temperament that a gentleman will take revenge even after ten years. Last time, he gave the Guo family face and did not hurt Guo Conglong's life. He did not even destroy the other party's magical weapon. He thought that the other party would understand what he meant.
He pinched his nose and admitted it.
Unexpectedly, his good intentions made the other party look down on him, thinking that he was too timid to cause trouble, and wanted to kill him. In this case, of course he would not compromise easily with the other party again.
However, this time he used the golden token treasure obtained from Guo Conglong to help him defeat [Tattooed Man Slaughter] Wu Biao, which made Zhou Yang stop looking down on those Jindan monks of the Guo family.
The monks of the "Liuyun Merchant Alliance" may lack the bloody spirit mentioned by Master Qingyang, but the opponent's advantages cannot be ignored, that is, they are generally richer than other monks of the same realm and have more life-saving cards.
For example, the golden token treasure he used, the sword energy sealed inside, was the metallic sword energy magical power practiced by a ninth-level golden elixir monk. Its power was almost as powerful as a full blow from a ninth-level golden elixir monk.
When he and Guo Conglong fought, if the opponent hadn't expected that his true combat power far exceeded his superficial cultivation, and was unwilling to easily use this life-saving trump card, the final outcome would have been hard to say.
Now that the Guo family has understood how powerful he is, they will definitely spend their money to prepare various treasures to enhance his combat power. If he comes to kill him at this time, he may not be able to get any benefits.
And his top priority now is to recover from his injuries first, otherwise his future cultivation path will be blocked, let alone revenge.
Thinking of this, he immediately bowed to Master Qingyang and said: "This [Tattooed Man Butcher] Wu Biao, the junior, can be left to the seniors to deal with. I just ask the seniors to give spiritual objects to help the juniors for the sake of past kindness."
Make up for the damage to your soul."
This was the purpose of bringing Wu Biao alive to see Master Qingyang.
The Xuanyang Immortal Sect is a well-known and decent sect in the Liuyun Continent’s Immortal Cultivation World. Before the incident of “Splitting the Heavenly Demon” broke out, when Xuanyang Immortal Sect was mentioned, in addition to their hostile forces, most of the Liuyun Continent’s Immortal Cultivation World
The monks will all praise him and regard him as a model of honorable family.
This good reputation not only makes it easy for Xuanyang Immortal Sect disciples to make friends and gain the trust of outsiders when they travel, it also has a great bonus in recruiting disciples. After all, as parents, most people
I hope that my child can enter a famous and decent sect and become a respected and decent monk.
Even when it comes to resolving disputes in the world of immortality, both parties to the fight are often more willing to invite people from the Xuanyang Immortal Sect to uphold justice and bear witness.
But now, this golden sign has been stained by the incident of "Splitting the Heavenly Demon", a stain that is difficult to clean off.
For the Xuanyang Immortal Sect, the only way to cleanse this stain is to continue to work hard to strengthen its "justice" attribute.
So how to strengthen the "justice" attribute?
Of course, it is strengthened by fighting against evil.
If the disciples of the Xuanyang Immortal Sect could capture a villain like Wu Biao, the "Tattooed Man Slaughter", and execute him in public, it would definitely make people happy and praise him endlessly.
Compared with this real reputation, the rewards hanging on the name of "Tattooed Man Slaughter" Wu Biao are not worth mentioning to the Xuanyang Immortal Sect.
Therefore, after hearing Zhou Yang's words, Master Qingyang immediately agreed without any further hesitation.
"Okay, after the old Taoist returns, he will have someone send you a [Taiyin Replenishing Pill]. This pill is a fifth-level high-grade spiritual pill. It is completely enough to make up for the loss of your soul."
call!
Although he had known for a long time that a top sect like the Xuanyang Immortal Sect would not be without this spirit-replenishing and soul-enhancing elixir, Zhou Yang was finally relieved when he finally got what he wanted.
After settling this important matter, he looked at Master Qingyang and asked him about practicing in Lingshan.
"Senior, I would like to ask, when will I be able to move to the spiritual mountain you promised me to practice? What do you need me to do?"
There is no doubt that a spiritual mountain with rich spiritual energy is important to immortal cultivators.
What's more, Master Qingyang promised Zhou Yang earlier that he would give him a fifth-level high-grade spiritual mountain.
"The Lingshan Mountain given to you is called Chongxuan Mountain. It is within the territory of Yuqing Dao Sect. We have reached an agreement with Yuqing Dao Sect. They are willing to set aside Chongxuan Mountain and the surrounding area of thousands of miles for your use!"
"But you also know the value of this kind of spiritual mountain. Once you accept this spiritual mountain, before your cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul stage, if our Xuanyang Immortal Sect and Yuqing Dao Sect ask you to do something, you must not hesitate, otherwise
Not only will we take back Lingshan, but we will also double your compensation for the rental fee for using Lingshan."
"Of course, you don't have to worry that we will use you as a mule because of this. We will only let you take action when we encounter some difficult things that are inconvenient for our sect disciples to do, and we will never let you take action in Jindan.
If you are in the first stage of cultivation, then go deal with enemies like Yuanying stage monks or sixth-level demon kings that are completely beyond your ability."
"If you agree to these conditions, you can now take the token given to you by the old Taoist and set off for Chongxuan Mountain. When you get there, remember to use the pseudonym [Qingyun Sanren] when dealing with other monks in the future.
If you want to use this pseudonym and this appearance to show others, there is also a jade slip here that records some information about the [Qingyun Sanren], so you can have a good idea after reading it."
Master Qingyang didn't show off, and immediately explained the situation to Zhou Yang in detail. He was obviously well prepared.
After Zhou Yang heard what he said, his face changed for a while, and finally everything calmed down, and he said softly: "Junior is not that anxious. You have to recover from your injuries first before going. Senior, just give the token to junior, and wait for junior to set off.
, I will inform my seniors."
Upon hearing this, Master Qingyang immediately handed those tokens into his hands, and then waved his sleeves and said: "Then you can rest here and recuperate. The old Taoist will ask Xuanyang Pavilion to arrange a cave for you to recuperate. If you need it,
If you want to purchase something, you can also use the [Xuan Yang Order] that the old man gave you to contact the shopkeeper of Xuanyang Pavilion and ask him to help with the purchase."
After saying that, he returned to Xuanyang Immortal Sect's mountain gate with Wu Biao, the "Tattooed Man Slaughter" who was banned in the room by Zhou Yang.
Half a day later, Zhou Yanggang and his Taoist companion Xiao Ying settled in a fifth-level cave house arranged for them by Xuanyang Pavilion. The "Taiyin God Replenishing Pill" promised by Master Qingyang was delivered by a foundation-building monk sent by Xuanyang Pavilion.
In his hands.
As soon as the elixir was obtained, Zhou Yang went directly into the retreat room to take the elixir and retreat to heal his injuries.
After half a year of this, he used the power of the "Taiyin Replenishing Soul Pill" to completely make up for the loss of the soul source of the "Blue Blood Burning Soul Technique".
Once the most important source of the soul has been replenished, the loss of essence and blood will not be a big deal. Zhou Yang's elixirs for replenishing essence and blood are always on hand, so there is no need to worry about this at all.
In this way, he stayed in seclusion for another half a year, and recovered most of the lost essence and blood. The rest can be made up by just slowly meditating and practicing, and it will not affect normal practice and fighting.
This is the power of money!
Even though it only took Zhou Yang a year to recuperate from his injury, you might think that his injury was not serious. In fact, he was able to recover so quickly only by spending money.
Not to mention anything else, the fifth-grade high-grade elixir "Taiyin Replenishing Spirit Pill" is a priceless thing. If it is put at auction, the price can be easily increased to four to five million for a low-grade elixir.
stone.
Those elixirs that replenish essence and blood are not ordinary goods. The worst they are are fourth-level elixirs. Each one is worth tens of thousands of low-grade spiritual stones!
But this does not mean that Zhou Yang lost money, on the contrary, not only did he not lose money, but he also made a huge profit!
Before "Tattooed Man Slaughter" Wu Biao was handed over to Qingyang Zhenren, all the valuables on his body were stripped away by Zhou Yang.
And just from the trophies on his body, Zhou Yang obtained six fifth-level magic weapons, thirteen fifth-level spiritual talismans, more than twenty fifth-level elixirs with various functions, and a set of fifth-level mid-level formations at once.
There are several precious spiritual objects of various kinds, and a lot of books on various martial arts.
In the end, the number of spiritual stones carried by "Tattooed Man Slaughter" Wu Biao reached more than 1.7 million, and there were as many as 82 high-grade spiritual stones!
Zhou Yang had killed quite a few Golden Core Stage cultivators, but this was the first time he encountered someone as wealthy as Wu Biao, the "Tattooed Man Slaughter".
The value of all the things on this person's body is at least five million low-grade spiritual stones. Some small sects have even sold the Mountain Gate Lingshan, and they may not be able to collect so many spiritual stones.
For a moment, Zhou Yang couldn't help but have the idea of becoming a bounty hunter, specifically to hunt down extremely vicious villains like "Tattooed Man Slaughter" Wu Biao, and then make a fortune overnight by relying on the loot.
As long as he robs two or three "Tattooed Man Slaughter" Wu Biao, Zhou Yang feels that he can purchase all kinds of spiritual objects needed to transform the elixir into a baby.
It's a pity that he only thought about this idea, because even if he could guarantee victory every time, he would never be able to find those villains.
If "Tattooed Man Slaughter" Wu Biao hadn't come to his door this time, let alone Zhou Yang, even if Master Qingyang mobilized the power of the entire Xuanyang Immortal Sect, he might not be able to find him.
And when Zhou Yang checked around the Kung Fu books, he immediately understood why Wu Biao, the "Tattooed Man Slaughter", was able to escape capture every time, and why he was able to follow him for so long before he was discovered.
It turns out that the reason for all this is due to a special magical power, a magical power that allows the immortal cultivator to block various tracking spells after practicing, and a magical power that allows the immortal cultivator to have a powerful ability to gather breath.
