Chapter seven hundred and fifty-eight theocracy opens the way
The cavalry went straight to the capital along the official road.
Several cavalrymen rode ahead, acting as scouts to ensure that there were no traps or ambushes on the road leading to the imperial city.
This is the arrangement for marching and fighting, especially now, we cannot relax.
At this moment, a scout who was inquiring about the situation suddenly saw a man wearing brocade clothes, broad and fat, who looked like a rich man on the official road.
The man was looking at them with a smile, no fear on his face.
"The man in front of me is going to the imperial city for business under the order of the third prince. The rest of the people are waiting to get out of the way. If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me and the ruthless swordsman." A scout shouted loudly, but he had already pulled out his sword.
come out.
"Be careful, this person is a bit weird." said a scout next to him.
There was no one on the official road, and the people fled after hearing the soldiers. How could anyone be so stupid standing in the middle of the official road.
"The young master has an order. If you encounter anyone who blocks your way, you can kill him first and then report him. If there is any abnormality, report it immediately. I will try to kill the person first. If there is anything wrong, you can report it immediately." The scout shouted and saw the middle-aged man.
Without retreating, he immediately mounted his horse and ran away with a sword in hand.
A fast horse galloped and arrived in an instant.
The middle-aged man was still smiling and standing motionless in the middle of the road.
The scout passed by on horseback, bent down and swung his sword, but saw the flash of the sword and the middle-aged man's head rolled to the ground in an instant.
But what's strange is that when this person's head fell to the ground, there was no blood splashing out. Instead, the head that fell on the ground rolled around and jumped up again, returning to his neck.
"Good sword, good martial arts." The middle-aged man twisted his neck and said with a smile.
The scout was shocked and hurriedly reined in his horse and stopped.
"Drive~!" Although another scout was also frightened, he turned around and went back to report the matter regardless of his nervousness.
"Where did the demon come from, and the Li family's army dared to stop it? Aren't you afraid of death? My general has killed countless demons, but you, a mere person, dare to show off your magic here?" The scout calmed down and shouted loudly.
"Hey." The middle-aged man smiled, but his sleeves trembled.
"Wow!"
Immediately, something fell out of his sleeve like a bean, and rolled away in all directions, soon covering the entire road.
When the scout saw it clearly, his eyes narrowed.
The bean-like things were actually iron nails that shone with cold light. Each iron nail seemed to grow out of the bluestone pavement on the ground. It was three inches long and extremely sharp. Looking at the street at this moment
There is no place to stay anymore.
The strong horse that the scout was sitting on suddenly let out a mournful cry and raised its front hooves, only to see that both of its hooves had been pierced and blood flowed out. Then due to the severe pain, the war horse could not stand and fell to the ground with a thud.
As soon as he fell to the ground, he was stabbed with countless holes by the iron nails on the ground in the blink of an eye.
"Ah~!" The scout couldn't help but scream in pain. He fell to the ground and was stabbed by the iron nails.
"It's not that easy for you to break into the imperial city. Let's destroy your cavalry first and see how you charge." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
At this moment, another waiter had already galloped over on horseback.
"Report, General, there is a demon blocking the road ahead. One of my men cut off the demon's head in front, but the demon actually put his head back." The scout said hurriedly.
"magician?"
Li Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"This is a spell of decapitation and regeneration. It will not take less than six hundred years to cast such a spell." Hu Lanyu said on the side: "And if you dare to block the road at this time, you must be a thousand-year-old demon."
"Will I kill less of the thousand-year-old demon?" Li Xiuyuan said: "Normally, I will be accommodating to anyone who opposes me, but today, any big demon who dares to show his face will definitely die. Keep going, and I will kill him today.
"
After saying that, the horse speeded up.
But when he arrived, he found that the official road was deserted. There was only one scout injured and lying in the middle of the road. There were sharp spikes like iron nails growing on the ground.
Let alone a human being, even a horse's hoof would be pierced instantly if it stepped on it.
"Stop~!" Li Xiuyuan reined in his horse and waved.
At this moment, Hu Lanyu turned over and dismounted and took a look. He pulled out an iron nail, but it broke the bluestone on the ground. He blew a breath, and the iron nail turned into a sharp thorn when it fell in his hand.
"These are the thorns on the hedgehog. The caster is a hedgehog spirit. The iron nails on the ground are all made of his sharp thorns. So many iron nails may have used up all the sharp thorns on his body. He is
If you are fighting us with thousands of years of Taoism, losing so many sharp thorns will definitely severely damage your vitality. This method is already an immortal technique.
, turns false into true, I’m afraid it will be difficult to break.”
After saying that, he blew a big breath at the iron nails on the ground, but some of them turned back into the spikes of the hedgehog, but most of them were still indifferent, and the broken parts were compared to the densely packed iron nails on this road.
Not worth mentioning at all.
"Master Li, I suggest you take a detour."
Li Xiuyuan frowned: "I don't know how much time it will take to take a detour, and there are no other ways to block it? This spell must be broken even if it is difficult to break,"
He tried to get closer to the iron nail.
However, he also found that under the influence of his aura, the iron nails were still iron nails, and the spell did not fail.
He knew that what Hu Lanyu said was true. This spell had turned falsehood into reality, just like the magic of turning stone into gold. Once successful, stone would turn into gold. Even under the influence of his breath, gold could not be turned into stone.
The spell is already in place, and it is extremely difficult to overcome it.
This kind of magic is already a first-class magical skill, and cannot be mastered by ordinary evil spirits.
"Master Li, the road to the imperial city is full of thorns. Why do you have to force it? Why don't you lead the troops and leave quickly to avoid death at the front." A voice came from a nearby house.
But I listened carefully but couldn't identify where it was coming from.
"Who are you and why don't you tell me your name quickly? Do you have the guts to block my way but don't have the guts to tell me your family name?" Li Xiuyuan shouted.
"I am one of the five immortals of the Wutong Sect. My name is not important to Mr. Li, is it?" The voice continued.
"I'll kill you by pretending to be a god or a ghost."
Li Xiuyuan's eyes flashed with golden light, and with a wave of his palm, the golden mountain appeared.
At present, his army is insufficient and the evil spirit is not strong enough, so he can still cast spells. However, at the moment when he uses the divine power, he clearly feels that the divine power in his hands is much heavier than before, as if there is an invisible force oppressing him.
If this power was strong enough, he might not even be able to exert his divine power.
"The divine power of the divine king?" The moment Li Xiuyuan showed his divine power, a voice exclaimed, and immediately a demonic wind blew on the street, as if some demonic thing had turned into a strange wind and escaped.
"Huhu~!"
"I want to leave now, but it's too late."
At the same time as the sound sounded, he stretched out his hand and pointed the golden mountain in his hand, turning into a golden sword and passing by, chasing the strange wind and stabbing it.
The strange wind was running away. When it ran into the house, the golden sword chased it into the house. When it ran to the treetops, the golden sword chopped off the treetops. Finally, the strange wind fled towards the direction of the imperial city. Finally, the sword caught up.
, stabbed at the strange wind.
Immediately a scream rang out, and a stream of blood splashed out from the air.
But at this time, Li Xiuyuan saw the golden sword falling precariously from the sky, as if suppressed by another force and unable to move forward.
"Is it the luck of the Song Dynasty?" He squinted his eyes.
Seeing the direction of the imperial city, the luck is shrouded like a layer of clouds, and the scene of mountains and rivers emerges. These are the mountains and rivers of the Song Dynasty, a representative of the destiny of a country.
The power of Dongyue Divine Lord is symbolized by Mount Tai, but Mount Tai cannot compare with the mountains and rivers of Jiuzhou.
"The national destiny of the Song Dynasty can suppress the power of divine power. This is a symbol of humanity suppressing Shinto. Yes, humans are the spirits of all things after all. If Shinto can suppress humanity, mortals in this world would have been enslaved by ghosts and gods. How can they be in charge of the human world.
"Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and took back his divine power.
But that one of the five immortals didn't feel well either.
The strange wind in the mid-air suddenly disappeared, fell to the ground and transformed into a middle-aged man, and then limped towards the imperial city as if running away, bleeding as he walked, but still shouting wildly
Said: "Li Xiuyuan, your spells are very powerful. I was stabbed in the body by your sword."
My body has been damaged to the foundation, but you won’t feel it either. If you can’t break my spell, you have to stay there obediently. I’ll see when you get into the capital.”
"Let me tell you one more thing. Your father-in-law, Fu Tianchou, has been dismissed from his post by the officials. Because of your involvement, he will soon be shot outside the capital. Fu Tianchou will be shot first, and then his wife will be shot.
Two daughters, see if you have the ability to save him."
"court death."
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, his murderous intent increased sharply, and he rode out suddenly on horseback.
The dragon colt immediately jumped into the air, flew over the iron nails on the ground and onto the roof, then ran like the wind towards the injured fairy in the distance.
"Huh?" The middle-aged man sensed the crisis. Looking back, he saw that Li Xiuyuan had abandoned a group of subordinates and single-handedly attacked with the Prancing Horse. He was immediately frightened to death.
This is different from what we planned before.
He expected that Divine Power would be suppressed by the fate of the country, so he kept a sufficient distance from Li Xiuyuan and tried to stay as close as possible to the imperial city, in order to prevent Li Xiuyuan from using the power of Divine Power to kill him with one move. Otherwise, how could he dare to stand in front of him?
Show up to fight.
But he never expected that Li Xiuyuan would rush to kill him like a reckless man.
Could it be that the previous ridicule was too much?
The dragon horse ran like flying and quickly caught up with him across the roof.
The middle-aged man dragged his injured thigh, shook his fat body and ran forward like crazy. While running away, he shouted: "Heng Niang, Huang Shilang, Miss Liu, save me, save me, Imperial Master, save me."
He cast a spell and tried to fly away, but he could only move forward a few feet before falling down again.
The fearful heart outweighed the usually firm Taoist heart, causing the spell to be inoperable. At this moment, he was seriously injured, his vitality was severely damaged, and the originally ineffective spell became even more inoperable.
"Who in heaven and on earth can save the demon I want to kill? Whoever comes today will die." Li Xiuyuan shouted.
next moment.
A figure rode up on horseback. The dragon colt raised its front hooves and roared like a dragon, forming a terrifying shadow that enveloped the middle-aged man.
The majestic and violent murderous intent enveloped him, and even the tiger was trembling at this moment.
The middle-aged man stumbled and suddenly fell to the ground. He was horrified to find that his spell had completely failed.
This is the aura of the saint that enveloped me.
He looked back and saw only a pair of cold golden eyes and a sudden flash of sword light.
"Buzz~!"
The Tai'a sword rang out, and a huge head flew up instantly.
This time, blood gushed out from his neck like a pillar, splashing out and staining the area red.
The middle-aged man's head rolled to the ground, and his eyes were wide open, with an expression full of fear and fear. The body fell heavily to the ground, and while the blood spurted out, it gradually changed.
Soon, the body of a man turned into the body of a hedgehog as big as a wild dog.
There is not a single thorn on the body of this hedgehog corpse. It looks like it has been plucked out. The body is white all over. This is a sign that it has absorbed too much essence of the sun and the moon after becoming a spirit. Only the belly is black, but it is because it has a vicious heart and does many evil things.
for the sake of.
"You are indeed a hedgehog spirit. After practicing for so many years, you are still a demon. You deserved to die in my hands today." Li Xiuyuan said coldly.
Ignoring the corpse, he immediately looked back and saw that the nails on the road behind were still there and had not disappeared.
Hu Lanyu said that it was not without reason that this hedgehog spirit consumed his vitality and fought against him with a thousand years of Taoism.
The death spell has not been broken yet, so it can be seen that he has spent a lot of money on it.
Li Xiuyuan didn't want his subordinates to take a detour. This was the official road that led directly to the imperial city. A detour would delay who knows how long. The roads in the capital were also messy. When the time came, they would enter the streets and alleys. After dividing the troops, they would have to divide their troops.
I'm afraid that 1,500 people have become a piece of loose sand, and from the mouth of this hedgehog spirit
He also learned that Fu Tianchou was really going to be beaten to death outside the imperial city. Although he didn't like his father-in-law, he had to take care of his fiancée, so time was tight and there was no room for procrastination.
"Do you think you can block my way if you die? Don't even think about it."
He rode a horse and held a sword. He waved the sword and pointed at the road, and a loud shout echoed in the sky: "The road is thorny, I must cut through the thorns and clear the way~!"
The Tai'a sword exploded with light, and the talisman of the Dongyue Divine Lord was left on it, shining brightly. And because he had the divine power, at this moment he seemed to be able to speak and cast spells he had never learned before.
And if this sword is used properly, it can cut mountains, split rocks, and cut off large rivers.
Even if a small road is suppressed by the national destiny, it should be cut open.
"Boom~!"
Li Xiuyuan drank and waved his angry sword. The bluestones on the official road rolled and the ground cracked. In an instant, the wind and clouds changed, the earth veins rotated, the entire road turned over, the soil was exposed, and it was difficult to break.
The iron nails of the spell were submerged deep underground.
In just a dozen breaths, the road surface several hundred feet long had completely lost its original appearance and turned into a flat dirt road.
The soldiers who saw this scene were stunned, as if they had seen a miracle.
"Destiny is with me, but not with Zhao, follow me into the imperial city," Li Xiuyuan raised his arms and shouted.
Immediately, morale surged, and iron hooves rolled in.
Hu Lanyu said with a condensed expression: "Under the suppression of the national destiny, even the divine power of Dongyue Divine Lord cannot kill a demon fairy whose vitality is seriously injured. This is already very wrong. If he really stands at the foot of the imperial city, I'm afraid
Mr. Li can't even show his divine power, but it stands to reason that both of them should be affected.
That’s right, why don’t the demons and immortals of the Wutong Sect have much influence?”
He followed on horseback, but he was thinking about this problem in his mind.
Perhaps Li Xiuyuan has also noticed it, but he doesn't think much about it at the moment, because there is no way out now.
