Chapter 175 The first encounter in the small town of Pingxian
That kind of pain filled every nerve of Anjing, and the pain was continuous and uninterrupted.
"Is this... the reason for practicing the "Nine Nether Purgatory Grimoire"?"
An Jing quickly sat down cross-legged, and the energy in his body surged out to resist the black flames.
The two major mental techniques of Xuanmen in the body were running wildly, a large amount of Qi was condensed in the body, and the black flames not only panicked, but became even more surging.
"coax!"
Just when the qi machine running in Xuanmen's mind poured into the black flames, it directly turned into a surging black qi machine. Although the black qi machine was very small, its momentum suddenly burst out.
The Qi machine condensed in Xuanmen appears white, which is completely inconsistent with the black Qi machine.
An Jing's face was distorted by the heartbreaking pain. He frantically activated the Qi in his body, constantly resisting the destruction of the black Qi.
Although he had long known the power of the "Nine Netherworld Purgatory Grimoire", the Qi power derived from the "Nine Netherworld Purgatory Grimoire" was still shocking.
The "Daluo Heart Method" and the "Guigu Heart Method" are both Xuanmen martial arts derived from the "Jade Emperor Sutra", and they are definitely incompatible with the "Nine Nether Purgatory Magic Book".
"Huhu..."
Severe gasping sounds continued to come from An Jing's mouth, and streams of bright red blood seeped out from his pores.
It looks extremely scary and frightening.
However, as soon as the blood appeared, it solidified into a shackle and stuck firmly to his skin, making De Anjing look like a man wearing blood-colored armor.
At this moment, Anjing, under the impact of two qi forces, was wandering between losing himself.
Indescribable severe pain radiated from every part of An Jing's body. The pain was so painful that it drove people crazy. However, An Jing's eyes were bloodshot and he was holding on with perseverance.
The qi machine in An Jing's body immediately rushed towards the black qi machine without fear of death, then forcibly wrapped it around it, and started to circulate along the path of Xuanmen's mental method!
Facing the refining of Xuanmen's mental method, the black Qi machine seemed to feel something, and it started to struggle violently.
After all, these two kinds of qi machines are fundamentally different and are simply incompatible.
The repulsion of the black Qi machine is too strong, and the white Qi machine cannot bear it at all. The powerful repulsive force permeates every part of his body, and at the same time, it also fills his Dantian. These repulsive forces cannot be leaked out.
, sooner or later, Anjing will be burned from the inside out.
An Jing's mind became a little confused for a moment, and he almost lost control.
If he loses his defense and allows the black energy to run rampant in his body, he will not be far away from exploding.
"Hold your soul and return it to oneness, your heart will be happy..."
An Jing recited the mantra silently, and everything in his mind seemed to disappear, as if he had reached a state of selflessness.
The black energy was like an angry dragon, rolling continuously in An Jing's body, and finally merged into the Dantian.
The Dantian also trembled when faced with the black energy that suddenly came in.
The black and white qi machines faced each other, and a terrifying power spread.
It seems like this is a battle between life and death.
Once the two air planes collide and intersect, the storm caused in the body is enough to cause him severe damage.
An Jing came to his senses in an instant, and then ran the "Daluo Heart Method" and "Guigu Heart Method" with one hand, and the "Nine Nether Purgatory Magic Book" with the other hand.
It would be impossible for a person with average qualifications to operate these three mental techniques at the same time, especially since the "Nine Nether Purgatory Grimoire" is Tianwu's martial arts.
In an instant, the black and white qi machines were guided by each other and became calm.
The originally tense atmosphere has become much quieter.
"call......"
An Jing felt the situation inside his body and then breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the black and white qi are entrenched in the Dantian, and they are clearly distinct from each other, and the middle seems to be like a thunder pool, and no one can cross even half a step.
"Um?"
An Jing opened his eyes, and then found that the book on the ground showed that he had reached the fourth level of the "Nine Nether Purgatory Grimoire".
You must know that the "Nine Nether Purgatory Grimoire" is the top martial arts in the world. It is extremely difficult to improve each level, especially An Jingcai who only practiced for a few days and did not study or ponder at all.
Seeing this, An Jing couldn't help but thought to himself: This "Nine Nether Purgatory Grimoire" is a martial art that can only be practiced by the leader of the Demon Cult. Doesn't this mean that I can also become the leader of the Demon Cult?
As the so-called man lives between heaven and earth, how can he live in depression for a long time under people? It is okay to be above people occasionally.
Soon, he put this 'unrealistic' idea behind him.
An Jing said to himself: "Forget it, improving your own strength is still the most important thing right now."
Although I have been studying and pondering the sword stickers of the Four Elephants Sword Ancestor in the past few days, my swordsmanship has been improving slowly. The fifth and sixth realms are a huge threshold.
Throughout the ages, many top swordsmen have been stuck in this realm.
Therefore, wanting to advance to the sixth realm is not something that happens overnight.
"There is a threshold to reach the master level from a half-step master, but if you accumulate enough heaven and earth spiritual energy, there is still a chance."
An Jing muttered to himself and took out the Saint Yuan Gu in his arms: "I almost forgot about this precious thing."
At this moment, the Saint Yuan Gu has lost its previous roundness and transparency, and seems to be very hungry. The body has shriveled up. Not to mention condensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it is doubtful whether it can survive any longer.
It was a blue chance to get this Saint Yuan Gu at first. Even masters like Lou Xiangzhen were very excited about it. Later, Lou Xiangzhen didn't know how to make this Saint Yuan Gu hatch, and it gave birth to countless children as soon as they were born.
Shao Tian Di Ling Yuan.
Most of them were used by Lou Xiangzhen to ascend to the realm of three qi, but a small part was left behind, allowing Anjing to break through to half a master's level.
After not being fed for such a long time, this Saint Yuan Gu seems to be dying.
An Jing took a deep breath, "But we have to find a way to make it spit out the spiritual essence of the sky. When Old Man Lou left, he said that this thing likes to eat all kinds of rare jade. When he goes to Ping County, he will buy some jade to feed the Holy Yuan Gu.
Bar."
After putting away the Saint Yuan Gu, An Jing landed directly on the back of the black dragon without any further hesitation.
"Roar!"
Although the black dragon is currently very timid, he is very psychic and can fully understand An Jing's instructions. He shakes his head and flies away into the distance.
As its name suggests, Tianmen City is the gateway to Yujing City, and Ping County is the territory under the jurisdiction of Yujing City. After passing Tianmen City, you will reach the outskirts of Yujing City.
Pioneer Anjing made the black dragon hide in the mountains and forests, and then entered Ping County.
Ping County is neither big nor small. It is located between Yujing City and Youfeng Valley. It can be regarded as the main link between the east and Yujing City. Because it is backed by Yujing City, this place is also very prosperous.
Originally, An Jing thought that he would be extremely excited when he arrived here, but at this moment, he had a complicated and subtle emotion.
"I'm selling candied haws! One bunch costs four cents."
"Rice is for sale, come and see!"
"Dried stinky tofu smells stinky and tastes delicious. Come and take a look."
...........
The market was crowded with people, people were coming and going, the shops on both sides were selling goods, and there were several small stalls nearby, including a fortune teller in disguise.
On the flat gold is written: According to ancient legend, the magic of immortality is better than that of star divination and Zi Dou.
An Jing was walking in the market, looking at the bustling scene in front of him, he couldn't help but feel slightly absent-minded.
The fortune teller raised his head and said with a smile: "Sir, would you like to do a palm reading?"
"Are you accurate?"
An Jing glanced at the fortune teller and said.
"This thing will work if you believe it."
The fortune teller smiled and said: "Let's do the math, I'm very good at calculating."
"No."
An Jing glanced at the fortune teller's palm and shook his head.
This fortune teller has a strong bloody aura. His palms seem to have no calluses, but there is a bit of sharp energy in his body. He does not look like a fortune teller, but like someone who sells his life.
The fortune teller smiled and said no more.
"This lord must have come from afar, right? The younger one can lead the way."
At this time, a smart-looking young man came over.
In every realm, there are "Qi Ke", they are all flexible-minded and very discerning, and they are responsible for helping others show directions, find people, find things, and inquire about information in exchange for some money.
The young man looked at An Jing, who looked strange, and was wearing a robe that covered his face. He held an ancient sword in his hand, and he knew at a glance that he was a person from other places.
"How long have you been in Ping County?"
An Jing glanced at the young man and asked.
The young man quickly replied: "Sir, I am a native of Ping County. It can be said that I am very familiar with every plant and tree in Ping County."
"This is silver."
An Jing heard that he took out a tael of silver and said, "I just want to ask a question."
"Excuse me, sir."
The young man's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.
One tael of silver!
This is one tael of silver!
Very few people would give such a large amount of consulting fees.
When several people around saw this, they all showed a hint of envy.
An Jing was silent for a long time and said, "Is there a big family named Zhao in Ping County?"
"I have lived here for more than ten years, and I only know the Zhang family and the Zuo family."
The young man shook his head and said.
An Ding nodded, but he let out a heavy breath in his heart, and then the clouds began to gather again.
Although he had known this result for a long time, he still couldn't react when the facts were before his eyes.
An Jing, you are confused!
Madam, this noble lady is fake, but this cruel and ruthless person is real.
But why did Zhao Qingmei marry herself?
An Jing was puzzled.
Seeing An Jing lost in thought, the young man next to him stood quietly and said nothing.
Many things seemed to suddenly become clear to me.
For example, Mr. Jiang suddenly wants to kill himself. Logically speaking, it is impossible for him to know his true identity, and he has never had any grudges with such masters, but why do such masters want to kill him?
Therefore, it must be because of his wife that Mr. Jiang killed him.
And Zhao Qingmei has been away for so long. She once said that she would return to Yuzhou City in two months. Now she must know that 'An Jing' is dead, so she naturally has no need to return to Yuzhou City.
.
"call........"
Thinking of this, An Jing let out a breath.
If he went directly to find Zhao Qingmei, he would be restricted by the Book of the Earth, preventing him from revealing his identity, and would instead confront the Demon Sect with swords.
Now that my wife is safe, I am not so worried at all.
"Strength is the most important in the world, so the most important thing is to improve your own strength. In addition, you also have to sneak into the Demon Cult. Firstly, you can slowly improve your strength. Secondly, you can also know that your wife is plotting against you."
"So, now we need to find that old boy Li Fuzhou, then submit a certificate of surrender and sneak into the demon sect."
An Jing's mind raced rapidly, and he thought of the current solution and countermeasures in an instant.
All in all, the best strategy is to infiltrate the Demon Cult first.
Li Fuzhou seems to be around Yujing City, and Tan Yun is also there. Moreover, because of the relationship between Li Fuzhou's master and disciple, Tan Yun also has a guardian in the demon sect. It is extremely difficult to find them by himself.
Reminiscent of the last time he met Li Fuzhou in Wudu Mountain, An Jing couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "If I had known that when Li Fuzhou recruited me, I shouldn't have spoken so harshly..."
Many things can only be regretted if you miss them.
Even if I find Li Fuzhou now, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for him to trust me.
Li Fuzhou is a very old fox and very difficult to deal with. If he suddenly changes his tone and says that he wants to join the Demon Cult, he will definitely become suspicious.
Can I enter the Demon Cult through Tan Yun and get more information about Madam?
An Jing thought to himself: "But before going to Yujing City, we should first take the clone of the Suppressing Evil Sword in King Xu Mountain. The ability to increase one's strength is one point of strength."
"grown ups......"
The young man on the side saw An Jing standing there silently for a long time, and said with some fear.
An Jing came to his senses, took out another tael of silver and threw it to the young man, saying, "Take it to my shop where I sell jade."
"Okay, this is your way, sir."
When the young man saw An Jing making such a generous move, he was extremely excited.
........
Cheongha Village, Gyeonggi-do.
There is a square courtyard in the village, with lights flickering inside.
On the square table, there are three tea sets.
A pretty, round and young woman stood aside, listening carefully to the conversation of several people present.
This woman is none other than Tan Yun.
Sitting on the table were Li Fuzhou, the leader of the Human Sect of the Demon Sect, Lin Tianhai, the leader of the Azure Dragon Seat, and Luo Zixiang, a master of the Earth Sect of the Demon Sect.
"This ghost swordsman is so deceptive. He doesn't take our demon sect seriously at all."
Lin Tianhai's old face sank, and he began to complain about Li Fuzhou and Luo Zixiang.
The ghost swordsman was just a hair away from castrating him. It was absolutely impossible to say that Lin Tianhai was not afraid at that time.
When he thinks about it now, he is still shocked and scared.
Although he is old, his heart is not old yet... His glory in those days is still there today.
That day at the Four Elephants Gate, if the Ghost Swordsman hadn't taken action, how could Xi Yuanjun and Jia Shiwu be Lin Tianhai's opponents?
After all, these two are half-step masters, and he, Lin Tianhai, has already reached the level of a master.
"This ghost swordsman is indeed a bit strange."
Li Fuzhou nodded and said in a deep voice: "When I was in Sanmiao Mountain, he started to kill me without even saying a word. At that time, I thought that this person had some grudge against my demon sect."
Luo Zixiang frowned, "But last time in Huangyao Town, the Ghost Swordsman personally rescued Tan Yun."
Tan Yun nodded repeatedly and said anxiously: "Yes, if the ghost swordsman hadn't appeared, I might have fallen into the hands of Xuan Yiwei. There might be some misunderstanding."
Tan Yun was a person who spoke lightly and was very emotional. It was as if none of the three people present heard what she said.
This made her sweat all over her head.
The three of them frowned, secretly thinking that the Ghost Swordsman's whereabouts were unpredictable, and even his motives were also unpredictable.
At this time, Li Fuzhou took out a piece of white paper and put it on the table and said: "Sect Master Yu sent a secret letter, which said that we should try our best to capture the ghost swordsman alive."
When Lin Tianhai heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "This ghost swordsman can even kill the old man Qing Feng. Let alone capture him alive, it would be a great blessing to be able to defeat him."
Old Man Qingfeng was a master who was a master and had been famous for a long time. Even he died at the hands of the Ghost Swordsman. How could the few people present be the Ghost Swordsman's opponents?
Luo Zixiang's face was full of surprise and uncertainty, "The Zhenyi Sect failed to capture him alive in Dayan, we are afraid..."
The Ghost Swordsman is no longer the Ghost Swordsman in Yuzhou City. The lives of countless masters under his command have already built up his reputation.
Tan Yun looked worried next to her, but there was no room for her to speak at this moment.
Li Fuzhou shook his head, "The ghost swordsman's strength is unpredictable. We will definitely have a very low chance of winning if we attack him, but we can use the help of others."
"oh?"
When Lin Tianhai heard what Li Fuzhou said, he immediately raised his eyebrows.
Li Fuzhou narrowed his eyes and said: "Lou is friendly with the Ghost Swordsman. This is something everyone in the world knows. Lou Xiangzhen once challenged the sword god of the Yuheng Sword Sect, but was broken by him and wasted for decades. This is also indisputable.
The fact is that now Lin Yiyang is one of the six great swordsmen, and Ghost Swordsman is also one of the six great swordsmen, but this grudge has never been resolved, and we can make a fuss about it..."
Lin Tianhai was also a human spirit, and he immediately said: "Sect Leader Li, do you mean that we publicize this matter and finally create rumors that the ghost swordsman is going to fight Lin Yiyang? Let them fight with each other, and we fishermen will benefit?"
Li Fuzhou nodded and said: "Yes, according to the information obtained by our Renzong, Lin Yiyang is already in Yujing City."
In the world of martial arts, the True One Sect has a transcendent status and does not need to rely on any force above the temple. Even the second prince had to turn to the True One Sect and try his best to make friends with the True One Sect.
Other forces, such as the Yuheng Sword Sect, also need to find a backer in the temple.
Lin Yiyang was arrogant and arrogant. He had no one in his eyes and naturally had very few friends. However, the current prince Zhao Chongyin was one of these very few.
Every time Lin Yiyang comes to Yujing City, he has only one purpose.
That is to visit this old friend.
Luo Zixiang asked from the side: "What if the Ghost Swordsman and Lin Yiyang are not involved in this conspiracy? You must know that the Ghost Swordsman and the Prince seem to have a relationship..."
At that time, the Ghost Swordsman had taken action at the Four Elephants Gate. Otherwise, with Lin Tianhai's strength, it would only be a matter of time before Xi Yuanjun and Jia Shiwu would be defeated.
"If the Ghost Swordsman is confident, there are two reasons why he must challenge Lin Yiyang."
Li Fuzhou pondered for a moment and said: "The first floor Xiang Zhen was indeed harmed by the Sword God in a small plot back then. Secondly, Lin Yiyang is a person with a high level of personality. If he knew that the Ghost Swordsman challenged him, whether it was true or not, he would be filled with anger in his heart.
Disdainfully, no one in the world would fight for fame and wealth, unless this ghost swordsman is willing to be a coward."
Tan Yun, who was standing by, finally had the chance to speak out and said: "But this ghost swordsman is like a turtle with a shrunken head. Master, how about we change a strategy, such as a beauty trap..."
At the end of the sentence, her voice dropped, as if she had lost her courage.
Luo Zixiang lowered his head, Lin Tianhai drank water, and Li Fuzhou turned a deaf ear.
Li Fuzhou smiled faintly and said: "There is no one who does not hesitate to be famous. When this matter continued to add fuel to the flames, the two of them were standing at the forefront of the storm. The general trend was that they had no choice but to do it. Do you still remember the earthquake in the building?
?”
After Jiang Sanjia was framed, Lou Xiangzhen ignored him and still chose to live in seclusion. This incident caused a heated discussion in the world at that time.
People who are involved in the martial arts generally attach great importance to loyalty.
Li Fuzhou shook his head and said: "Of course, if the Ghost Swordsman is really so forbearing and cannot be outwitted, then he will have to use force."
"Hard?"
Lin Tianhai glanced at Li Fuzhou.
With the Ghost Swordsman's strength, can they really be tough?
Li Fuzhou said calmly: "When I return from Yujing City, I will come and meet him in person."
Lin Tianhai and Luo Zixiang did not speak, and their expressions became extremely solemn.
Li Fuzhou has been silent for decades, so long that people have forgotten that he was once a genius, a genius that Jiang Shang couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Tan Yun, on the other hand, bit his lip and his little head was thinking rapidly about how to stop the three people in front of him or tell the ghost swordsman the news and ask him to leave this place quickly to avoid being plotted by the old and cunning people.
...........
Ping County, in front of the jade shop.
The young man pointed to the shop in front and said, "Sir, the jade shop is in front of you."
"Okay, thank you very much."
An Jing waved his hand and said, "Go and do your business."
The young man rubbed his hands and said, "Sir, if you have any other instructions, I will just wait nearby."
The man in front of me is very generous with his actions, and he must not miss the excellent opportunity in front of him.
An Ding nodded and then walked into the jade shop.
"Um?!"
As soon as I walked in, I saw a kind-hearted old monk standing aside, seemingly waiting patiently for something.
The old monk also sensed someone coming in, and then he put his hands together on his chest and said, "Donor, we meet again."
"I didn't expect to see the master here."
An Jing was also a little surprised and said with a smile: "It's true that we meet each other everywhere in life."
The old monk in front of me is none other than the master of Zen Buddhism, Puhui Bodhisattva.
For some reason, the old monk Anjing in front of me felt inexplicably kind. Maybe it was because seeing this old monk reminded me of the past in Yuzhou City.
"Yeah, even the poor monk didn't expect it."
Puhui Bodhisattva sighed with emotion, and then asked: "I wonder why the donor is here today?"
"Come here to find someone."
"Looking at the appearance of the donor, it seems that he has not been found."
"It was sought, but not found."
An Jing sighed sadly and said, "Master, why are you here in this small town if you don't preach Buddhism?"
Buddhist monasteries have now begun to open their temples in various parts of Dayan, and the recent results have been remarkable. In a few years, there will probably be many more Buddhist disciples in the rivers and lakes of Dayan.
According to the current development trend, Buddhism has blossomed everywhere, and the vital interests of the Zhenyi Sect have been greatly affected. In addition, the Zhenyi Sect suffered heavy losses in the past and was injured.
Xiao Qianqiu did not show the style of the Zhenyi Sect's national religion on Yuanhu Lake. It can be said that the Zhenyi Sect is now a wounded tiger.
But the injured tiger is the scariest and most vicious.
If the Ghost Swordsman only has a moral dispute with the True One Sect, then Buddhism is a battle of life and death.
If Buddhism flourishes, the true religion will inevitably decline.
As the state religion of Great Yan, Zhenyi Sect will definitely respond.
Now among the Great Yan Rivers and Lakes, the only one who has become a master is the Puhui Bodhisattva, who is obviously no match for the True One Sect.
There are rumors in the world that Buddhism has King Kong crossing eastward and is located in Longquan Temple, a thousand-year-old Buddhist temple in Jade City.
The Vajra's angry eyes subjugate demons, and the Bodhisattva's lowered eyebrows save all sentient beings.
Vajra and Bodhisattva are both Buddhist realms. The difference is that although Bodhisattva is a master, he is not good at fighting, while Vajra is famous for his ferocity and practices Buddhist killing martial arts. He is one of the masters of the same realm. Waiting for the existence.
In the battle to destroy the Buddha, the Buddhist Vajra was born, and there was a bloody battle in all directions, with corpses floating hundreds of miles away. It still makes many experts talk about it with a change of expression.
However, no one knows whether there is really a Buddhist Vajra in Longquan Temple.
Puhui Bodhisattva said: "The poor monk is entrusted by others and protects them well."
"oh?"
When An Jing heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly. Who can ask a Buddhist master to protect the Tao? That person's background is really extraordinary.
Who is this person?
"Old monk, what do you think I would use this fine Dushan jade to make a jade Buddha?"
At this moment, a voice sounded.
The sound was like the oriole coming out of the valley, the kite singing and the phoenix singing, clear and loud yet gentle and soft.
What a beautiful woman.
An Jing subconsciously raised his head and looked up. The woman was dressed in white, and she was even more dazzling when the flowers reflected her. She was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and her skin was as beautiful as snow. She was so delicate and beautiful, and her face was so beautiful that she couldn't stare at her.
In An Jing's view, the looks of women in the world cannot be compared based on ranking.
Every woman has a unique temperament and charm, such as Zhao Qingmei's tenderness and grace, the wind blowing in the willows, her gentle and charming voice.
That Dai Ling, with ice muscles and jade bones, is cold and noble, like a fairy relegated to the mortal world, making people dare not get too close to him.
Although Tan Yun is not extremely beautiful, she is still a rare beauty, and her curvy figure is even more protruding forward and backward. There is a bit of playfulness and liveliness between her eyebrows, innocence and naturalness, which makes it difficult not to like her.
The woman in front of her has an aura of spiritual beauty, her eyes are like a clear water, with two arcs of electricity, which directly hit the man's heart, especially the smile that is intentionally or unintentionally outlined at the corner of her mouth, the arc is like a crescent moon. So perfect.
At this moment, the woman held a handful of ancient jade in her hand and walked slowly down the stairs.
