Wu Jie stared at Ao Yan, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, without blinking.
He did not feel the joy of "catching up and finishing the work soon". On the contrary, he was full of vigilance.
He could clearly see the changes in Ao Yan. From the handsome and unrestrained person when they last met to the down and out and thin person now, he was completely different. If he was full of gold and jade last time, now he is just a broken stone.
.
But in fact, the last time we met, Ao Yan was full of gold and jade, but he was a mere showman. Although Ao Yan is down and out now, he has a firm and strong spirit, and his spirit and Taoism have improved.
Considerable growth.
That's all. Neither his spirit nor his Taoist heart can be of much help in a life-and-death fight. Even if Ao Yan now understands the Dongxu-level Taoist heart, it will not allow him to take one more stab or gain strength.
Become a little stronger.
But the scary thing is that Ao Yan has lost weight and is full of strong temperament.
The predecessors of the Yujing Sect had encountered this situation before and left important records.
"Dragon people are born with strong bodies and outstanding qualifications, so they often don't work hard enough and are unwilling to lay a solid foundation and take the path of hard work and polishing. For example, when it comes to exercising their physical bodies, they usually do it directly
Use real mana to strengthen, or take elixirs to enhance the body's toughness, or use armor or protective treasures... This practice is very common, almost a routine for the dragon clan.
"However, there are also some dragons who, due to various reasons, have broken through their natural temperament and the limitations of their own structure. Such dragons will not only be able to practice far faster than ordinary dragons, but also be able to
Gain power far beyond that of ordinary dragons."
"Of course, there are different degrees of breaking through one's own limitations. The most common one is to break through the limitations of laziness and become tenacious and hard-working - which is why I have emphasized it before. These break through the limitations of laziness.
The dragon clan will consciously polish itself to make its body stronger and its cultivation more stable."
"When you are enemies with the Dragon Clan in the future, you must remember that if you see a Dragon Clan that is down and out, as miserable as a farmer or a hard worker, you must be cautious about their capabilities. They are not at the same level as ordinary Dragon Clan."
The above passage comes from a chat made by True Immortal Platinum during one of his lectures. At that time, it was also accompanied by wonderful magic power, allowing all the disciples who listened to his lectures to clearly "see" the kind of dragons he mentioned.
, especially being able to feel the temperament that is completely different from the ordinary dragons.
Wu Jie did not attend that lecture, but his friend Wu Ruofei made a compilation of the teaching materials of the real immortals and gave it to him. Of course, Wu Ruofei's ability was limited, and the collection only contained records of the real immortals' speeches, but not
It can record the wonderful magical powers they performed at that time.
But at least that information has helped Wu Jie a lot now
Ao Yan's situation is obviously what Bai Jin was talking about that day. In the process of recuperating for more than a hundred years, he made a breakthrough and finally overcame his "lazy" nature, seriously polishing his body and condensing his true energy.
Although a hundred years was short and its help to him was very limited, this beginning allowed him to embark on a completely different path.
A road to heaven.
Wu Jie knew that this was also the effect of the Plague Department's rectification.
The way of heaven is endless, and there will always be a glimmer of hope for people to grasp. The curse of the Plague Department Zhengfa will not only greatly increase the enemy's misfortune, but also make this glimmer of hope clearer and easier to grasp. This
It is a double-edged sword, the ultimate principle of balance between heaven and earth, without exception.
Obviously, Ao Yan seized this glimmer of hope. If Wu Jie had not arrived and just stayed in Yunyi Kingdom to continue to curse him, he would probably have been able to withstand the power of the curse with his own cultivation, and even grow enough to counterattack.
To the point where the curse can be overcome. At that time, the power of the curse will be rebounded, and Wu Jie himself will die.
This is why the Gods of Plague have to take personal risks again and again and come to places close to the enemy to cast spells. Only when the distance is close enough can they discover in time those enemies who break through the restrictions and seize a glimmer of hope.
For such an enemy, what is needed is to "take advantage of his illness and kill him"
This kind of battle is not the style that the Fighting Gods of the Plague Department are accustomed to. Most of the fall of the Fighting Gods of the Plague Department is in such battles. After all... they are scholars, wise men, and counselors, but not warriors. Real swords
Bloody fighting with real guns is not their specialty. But when they want to draw their swords to fight, most of the time they face particularly outstanding and excellent enemies.
This is also the principle of the cycle of heaven. People who are accustomed to using wisdom to solve problems will inevitably encounter situations where they must solve problems with their fists. This is a disaster and cannot be avoided.
Among the four divisions of God of War, the Plague Division and the Fighting Division were not born in the right way after all. Their power is far more powerful and weird than that of the Fire Division and the Thunder Division, but the disasters they face are also far greater than those of the Fire Division and Lei Division. They are good at wisdom.
The plague department will encounter disasters that require the use of strength to solve problems; the Doubu department, which is almost invincible in frontal combat, often needs to face disasters from the urge to destroy the world in its heart... In contrast, the disasters of the fire department and the thunder department are simple and clear.
Fighting, danger, and sacrifice, this is their fate.
Wu Jie has practiced the Plague Department Zhengfa and used the Plague Department Zhengfa, so he will naturally encounter the disaster unique to the Plague Department Fighting God. If he is just a Plague Department Fighting God, this situation is exactly what he is least good at dealing with.
of.
However, he is not only the Fighting God of the Plague Department, he is also the Fighting God of the Fire Department and the Fighting God of the Thunder Department.
Ao Yan is stronger, so what? Just fight him
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly, but he did not rush to take action. He still continued to use the Plague Department's rectification method unhurriedly to reduce Ao Yan's luck.
If he was just a God of War from the Plague Tribe, he would not allow Ao Yan to finish healing his injuries, and he would have to take action immediately - because Ao Yan is the Yang God True Immortal after all, and no matter how much luck is cut off, he will not be unlucky for a while.
.Instead of wasting time, it is better to seize the opportunity.
But Wu Jie is very confident. He believes that even if he can't defeat Ao Yan head-on, he can still fight a war of attrition with the help of Thunder Escape Technique and True Fire Body. It is true that it is inevitable for a mere Daoguo monk to fight a war of attrition against the Yang Shen True Immortal.
There is no doubt that it will fail. But as long as it is delayed for a while, the effect of reducing luck will appear...
So the scene seemed very strange - Wu Jie was trekking in the wild world and went through all kinds of hardships to hunt down Ao Yan. Ao Yan hid underground to heal his injuries silently, while working hard to exercise his muscles and bones. Both sides were obviously preparing for this
They were preparing for the fateful duel. But now, they finally met each other, but they didn't take action. One watched the other side warily, while the other Yu Jian closed his eyes and concentrated on healing...
What is this?
After a while, Qing Ni appeared next to him. He looked at Wu Jie and then at Ao Yan, his green frog face wrinkled up.
This situation is very abnormal, very abnormal
But he didn't understand, what was going on?
Qingni has lived for hundreds of thousands of years and has experienced countless battles. In terms of combat experience, Ao Yan and Wu Jie may have less than him if they are added up and multiplied by ten. But he has never seen
I have never heard of such a battle before.
Seeing the enemy healing, Wu Jie did not attack, but concentrated on observing; seeing the enemy right in front of him, Ao Yan did not get up to fight, but concentrated on healing.
What do they want?
Qingni was able to cut his way through the endless wilderness and create a peaceful home for the frog tribe. This is an extraordinary feat of supernatural power and perseverance. If he had not been unable to let go of the frog tribe in Qingni Country, he would have even tried to revive his soul.
Rely on the void to attack the realm of True Lord Dongxu.
So when he calmed down and observed carefully, he quickly saw the trick.
Ao Yan didn't heal his injuries at all. He was taking the time to stretch his muscles and bones, and he didn't even hesitate to make the injuries worse. He just wanted to temporarily improve his strength and win this battle. He couldn't care about anything else.
But the strange thing is that his strength is obviously growing, but in Qingni's view, his chances of winning are constantly declining, and it seems that he is getting closer to failure.
This was obviously not Ao Yan's doing, but Wu Jie's method.
It seems that the two sides have not fought, but in fact they have already used their own methods. It's just that it is Ao Yan who has beaten all the muscles and bones first and achieved magical powers? Or is it Wu Jie who has reduced Ao Yan's luck first and gained the upper hand?
Even though Qing Ni is well-informed, he still can't judge.
He only knows that if this continues, when the two sides actually take action, the strike will most likely be earth-shattering, and it is very likely that one move will determine the difference between life and death.
When the time comes, one will die, the other will be seriously injured, or even both will die together.
Qing Ni's face was so wrinkled that he almost cried out in pain. He originally planned that the two of them would quarrel for a few words and start a quarrel, and then start a fierce fight with fists and fists, but he didn't expect that neither of them had the idea of wasting time.
This confrontation has entered a life-or-death stage from the beginning.
"It's not okay to go on like this." Qingni hesitated for a while, but finally made up his mind, "No matter who wins or loses, they must do it carefully. Only when the people behind them ask about it in the future can I explain it."
Thinking of this, he coughed twice and asked: "Fellow Daoist Ao, how is your injury?"
Ao Yan remained silent, but his aura suddenly rose, and Wu Jie's aura also rose accordingly. A fierce conflict broke out between the two sides' auras, and a strong wind blew up.
Qingni shook his head. He found that this was not enough, and he needed to add a little more strength.
So he raised his hand and pointed towards Ao Yan.
After all, he was still slightly leaning towards Ao Yan, so this finger was meant to heal Ao Yan.
Ao Yan's injury was caused by a magic weapon refined from the core of the stars. It has not been completely healed even after hundreds of years. But in fact, if Qing Ni is willing, he can use his magical power to help Ao Yan temporarily heal the injury.
Press it down.
Maybe after an hour or three, when the injury occurs again, Ao Yan will be seriously injured and lie down for hundreds or even thousands of years; or maybe Ao Yan will be dead by then, but no matter what, this is still an opportunity.
With his finger, Ao Yan's body shook violently, he spat out a mouthful of blood and opened his eyes.
Wu Jie smiled, waved his hand, and a bolt of lightning hit his face, but Ao Yan raised his hand to block it.
The next moment, their bodies disappeared together, and a thunderous crash sounded in the air.
