"Oh, it's nothing, I just suddenly...remembered some things that I might have overlooked before." Su Anran smiled sheepishly.
"It's no small matter to be able to make people like Mr. Su have a whim." A young man with a dignified appearance said with a smile, "But it doesn't matter, maybe this will help us find the soul-splitting demon as soon as possible.
Mountain spider."
"That's what Mr. Xin'an said." Qingyu nodded, "Anran, if you think of something, just say it."
Su Anran knew that Qingyu was trying to excuse herself.
After all, in his apparent identity, he is just Qingyu's guard. The one who can truly represent the Taiyi Sect is Qingyu.
Just now, several of them were discussing the next action - mainly Qingyu and Tang Xin'an were communicating.
Therefore, Su Anran's exclamation was quite rude if taken seriously.
Fortunately, the Tang Xin'an in front of him didn't care about etiquette that much, so he laughed loudly and didn't pursue the matter.
This person was met by Su Anran and others more than half a month ago.
At that time, they were hunting down Mrs. Zhao, the Yin Ji. Although they already knew that Mrs. Zhao had laid a dragnet and was waiting to kill Su Anran and others, they still underestimated Mrs. Zhao's determination: the other party actually wanted to kill Su Anran and others.
People launched an attack, and those participating in the battle were actually the Ghost King Kuixing Taoist and four other Dharma Protectors.
It can be said that all the Dharma Protectors hidden in the far north ice have emerged at once.
With the strength of Su Anran and others, it is not a problem to fight one against two.
But Qingyu's strength is not that strong. Let alone one against two, she will be killed instantly on the spot.
So from the moment the war broke out, Su Anran and others were in crisis.
Just when Su Anran was considering giving up the battle and clues, and instead protecting Qingyu to break out of the encirclement, Tang Xin'an, who was looking for clues to the Soul-Splitting Demon Mountain Spider nearby, heard the fluctuating movements of the battle, so he rushed over to support as soon as possible, and finally stabilized
The situation was suppressed, allowing Su Anran and others to find an opportunity to counterattack.
In that battle, Su Anran and others killed four Dharma Protectors, including Mrs. Yin Ji Zhao, and severely wounded and captured the Ghost King Kuixing Taoist. They later transferred them to the Kunlun Sect for disposal. There was only one Dharma Protector Vajra.
Escape.
After that, Su Anran and others acted together with Tang Xin'an to pursue the Dharma Protector.
In the blink of an eye, another half a month has passed.
During this process, both parties became familiar with each other.
So Su Anran knew that this Tang Xin'an was not from the Tianyuan Secret Realm, but came from the Xuan Realm, and when he came to the Tianyuan Secret Realm, the Xuan Realm was falling into the second war between good and evil.
According to Tang Xin'an, many monks at that time followed the example of the Great Tribulation of the End of the Era and chose to escape in order to take refuge. There were hundreds of people who entered the Tianyuan Secret Realm with him. However, the strength of these people was high or low.
The upper limit is low, but it is not a safe place, so after tens of thousands of years, only Tang Xin'an is left.
Moreover, Tang Xin'an later married a princess from the Northern Tang Dynasty, thus becoming a member of the royal family.
Now in terms of seniority, he is the ancestor of the Northern Tang Dynasty.
He has reached the pinnacle of cultivation and has almost no rivals in this world. He has helped the Northern Tang Dynasty solve many major crises - the biggest one was to single-handedly defeat the Shenwei Dynasty's army and almost kill Tan Xing.
Killing was a well-deserved punishment of the Northern Tang Dynasty
Dinghai Shenzhen, so the Beitang royal family is willing to spend a huge price to support this ancestor. Coupled with the particularity of some laws of heaven in the Tianyuan Secret Realm, Tang Xin'an can still maintain the appearance of a young man, and Shouyuan seems to be far away.
To the end.
Qingyu tested Tang Xin'an to see if he intended to return to the Xuan Realm.
Tang Xin'an smiled and shook his head, saying that although his wife had passed away, he had accepted the worship of the Beitang royal family for so many years, and the cause and effect between the two parties had long been entangled, so he could not leave easily.
.Furthermore, he is in the north
The Tang Dynasty also lived a very comfortable and carefree life, so he did not plan to return to the Xuan Realm. After all, with his cultivation level back in the Xuan Realm, he was just a member struggling in the sea of suffering, which was far worse than in the Tianyuan Secret Realm.
Feel free to be an invincible true immortal.
I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail.
He is talking about Tang Xin'an.
But Tang Xin'an is indeed powerful.
It's not the kind that makes a name for itself.
Tang Xin'an's swordsmanship is amazing, and his sword-controlling skills are the best Su Anran has ever seen. And he has spent tens of thousands of years in this world, not to mention swordsmanship and spirituality, he even dabbled in it.
Many other martial arts skills, including Taoism, formations, weapon refining, elixir refining, etc. are all well-described, and he is almost an all-rounder.
Of course, he will respect Su Anran, and it is also because Su Anran's sword energy makes him feel bright. Before that, Tang Xin'an, like the sword cultivators in the Xuan Realm, all believed that sword energy was a minor skill in swordsmanship.
It's not worth mentioning. But after seeing Su Anran's sword energy, he was shocked to find that his understanding of sword energy was too narrow. So for more than half a month, he discussed sword energy with Su Anran whenever he had free time.
Techniques for using Qi.
It has to be said that Tang Xin'an is indeed talented in swordsmanship.
In just half a month, he has become more proficient in using grenade sword energy. As long as he is given enough time to continue to hone this sword energy technique, it must be Vulcan Cannon sword energy, Katyusha sword energy, etc.
He should be able to master both tactical nuclear bomb sword energy and strategic nuclear bomb sword energy - provided that he can possess enough true energy: Su Anran's sword energy is far more powerful than others because he has also mastered "
The practice of "Zhenyuan Breathing Method".
If this secret technique hadn't provided Su Anran with extremely strong Qi, he wouldn't have been able to create the nuclear bomb sword Qi method.
Nowadays, in Tianyuan Secret Realm, the monks who specialize in swordsmanship and call themselves swordsmen intentionally break away from the scope of martial arts and form a new system on their own. This is all because of Tang Xin'an.
Su Anran and Tang Xin'an often exchange knowledge about kendo and sword energy, so they have a pretty good relationship with each other.
Song Baiye and the Little Butcher were not very interested in this, so they didn't care about Tang Xin'an.
Most of the time, Qingyu only appeared as a representative envoy of the Taiyi Sect, and usually did not interfere much in the affairs between Su Anran and Tang Xin'an.
At this moment, Tang Xin'an looked at Su Anran with a smile, trying to encourage him to continue talking.
Obviously, he also hopes that Su Anran can make meritorious deeds through this.
"Previously, when we went deep underground with Taoist Chongxingzi of the Kunlun Sect, we killed the Spear God Zhao Hao, the Spider Girl Tong Yue, and the Mountain Ghost. Later, we heard that Yang Jun Wu Shi and the Evil Emperor Lei Ming entered the hinterland of Beiling.
then lose trace, and then
Later, I heard that there were seven Dharma Protectors beside Tan Xing. However, although the war was quite brutal, on the whole, we could be regarded as winning, so later the seven Dharma Protectors fled back to the far north.
Ice domain.”
Hearing Su Anran speak, Tang Xin'an also nodded and said: "I have heard about this, but at that time I felt that this move was Tan Xing's conspiracy, so I asked the emperor and others to be careful."
"Yes." Su Anran nodded, "So in this pursuit, we saw four other Dharma Protectors besides Taoist Kuixing and Mrs. Zhao. But fortunately, with the help of Senior Brother Tang,
So instead we killed four of them and captured Taoist Kuixing... But why didn’t we see Demon Queen Cheng Huayue, Sword God Gu Yiqing and Sword God Hu Ding in this battle?"
In terms of age and seniority, Su Anran should call Tang Xin'an his senior.
But because Tang Xin'an felt that he had a good chat with Su Anran, the two of them called each other brothers and sisters, which is also a common way of addressing each other in the Xuan world.
Hearing this, Tang Xin'an couldn't help but frown.
"And the most important point!" Su Anran originally just wanted to conceal the reason for his exclamation just now, but now the ideas in his mind gradually became clearer, "According to the intelligence we heard before, Soul Split
There are three holy envoys under the command of the Magic Mountain Spider, but we know that the third holy envoy has already
He is already dead. The second Holy Envoy is Tan Xing, but who is the first Holy Envoy?...And, if I remember correctly, Senior Brother Tang, you were unable to capture Tan Xing alive even if you single-handedly failed to capture him.
?Then why was the First Holy Envoy able to capture Tan Xing and his three guards of the Ninth Immortal Realm?"
"No!" Tang Xin'an suddenly exclaimed, "Tan Xing played such a big trick!"
Su Anran didn't react at first, but soon understood the reason why Tang Xin'an exclaimed.
Qingyu's face couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise: "This...how is this possible?!"
"You have never fought against Tan Xing, so it is normal that you don't know his details and habits." Tang Xin'an said with a serious face, "This man's boldness in using troops is far beyond anyone's imagination. Many times, if you see him using troops in a dignified way,
Just thinking that a gentleman will bully him,
But you never thought that you had already fallen into his trap, and instead became his winning stroke. And if you think that he is only good at conspiracies and want to deal with him on the frontal battlefield, you will find that all of his
All the tricks and tricks are just to force you to confront him head-on."
"Military God?" Su Anran was a little surprised.
"Military God?" Tang Xin'an nodded, "You can indeed call him the Military God! At the beginning, the Northern Tang Dynasty and the Shenwei Dynasty fought hundreds of battles, and both sides won and lost. But when I later forced him to retreat,
When the Northern Tang Dynasty reviewed the situation, we discovered that those so-called victories were just paralyzing us. Regardless of the size of the battle, the Northern Tang Dynasty did not win a single battle... So if I hadn't gone straight to Huanglong later, I might still be here now.
There really is no Northern Tang Dynasty anymore.”
"It is still unknown who the first holy envoy under the command of the Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider is, but the appearance of various armies storming the border in recent times must be just to attract our attention, even including
It is also for this purpose to lure us deep into the far north ice." Tang Xin'an said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid that by now, the Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider has already entered the North Ridge."
Tan Xing's methods don't seem very clever.
But it is this dark-under-the-light strategy that is more likely to achieve this.
Because previously, the Qianyuan Dynasty and the Kunlun Sect even joined forces with Longhu Mountain and Sheji Academy to set up such a southern defense line at the junction of the North Ridge and the Far North Ice Territory. From now on, no matter what happens to the descendants of the Soul-Splitting Mountain Spider
Attacking, but they were never able to break through this line of defense. For this reason, they even had to adopt the strategy of penetrating the rear.
Until a few months ago, the Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider finally launched a fierce attack at all costs. This caused the Northern Tang Dynasty, which had already adapted to the rhythm of defense battles, to quickly suffer large-scale casualties, even with the defense lines on both sides.
It has changed hands several times.
Previously, the Northern Tang Dynasty thought it was the meritorious harvest established by the heroic fighting of its own sergeants.
But now it seems that all this is just Tan Xing's plan.
It was here to capture the energy, national strength, and a large number of legionary monks buried at the bottom of the Northern Tang Dynasty to prepare for subsequent strategies. And subsequent changes indeed illustrate this point, because the defense lines were completely destroyed, so that
The allied forces of the Northern Tang Dynasty and the Kunlun faction had to retreat again and again to build a second and third line of defense. It was precisely because of this that they were finally forced to go deep into the underground lair of the parasite.
Everything is going according to Tan Xing's script.
In other words, that underground lair will be discovered sooner or later, and a war will inevitably break out inside - if the high-level combat power of the Northern Tang Dynasty and the Kunlun faction's coalition forces can be successfully eliminated, then the Soul-Splitting Demon Mountain Spider's side will naturally be the most powerful.
Make a fortune. Even if these high-level combat forces cannot be resolved, they can still hold on to the time of these high-level combat forces, thereby launching a larger-scale southward war and profiting from another battlefield.
Su Anran even guessed that even without Song Baiye, they would definitely be able to get the reason why these Soul-Splitting Mountain Spiders went berserk from that underground lair.
After all, that is the "trophy" prepared by Tan Xing for the "winner".
In this way, the Qianyuan Dynasty and the Kunlun Sect, who have learned the "truth", will naturally be mentally prepared for a decisive battle, and no matter what scale and intensity of war breaks out in the future, they will definitely not have any doubts.
Then, by burying a large amount of cannon fodder and using these Dharma Protector Vajras whose identities have been confirmed as bait, the high-level combat power of the Qianyuan Dynasty's coalition forces was introduced into the Arctic Ice Region.
As long as this strategic goal is achieved, Tan Xing will win.
Because at this time, everyone's attention will be drawn to the extreme northern ice, thus ignoring the possible sneak plan of the Soul-Splitting Mountain Spider.
Even the nine dynasties in the Tianyuan Secret Realm cannot afford to fight a war with hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of casualties, because the cultivation of monks takes a long time, so any war will inevitably
There is a "casualty index". Once this index is exceeded, the only way to go to war is to put it on the negotiation table or fight to the death.
But the Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider doesn’t!
There are as many spider monsters as you want.
Even ordinary people can be infected into parasites, so only the human race can't fight a war of this scale!
This is also the reason why the Qianyuan Dynasty's coalition forces' attention will be attracted to the Far North Ice Region, because everyone hopes to be able to complete the battle and completely end this huge crisis that may expand and spread to the entire Tianyuan Secret Realm.
But now it seems that all this is just a wishful thinking.
Tan Xing took everything into account.
The Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider may have entered Beiling at this moment!
But what Su Anran, Qingyu, Tang Xin'an and others can't understand is how the Soul-Splitting Demon Mountain Spider can cross this line of defense without anyone noticing? This is completely unbelievable. After all, even if
The entire defense line was riddled with holes, but the monk was not blind, so how could he turn a blind eye to this?
unless……
Su Anran and Qingyu looked at each other and thought of a chilling possibility.
"It's been six hundred years. This is the horror of the Soul-Splitting Mountain Spider." Tang Xin'an sighed, "The longer this monster lurks, the stronger its trump card and foundation will become, because you simply can't
Do you know how many monks have become its parasites...According to rumors in the mysterious world, if the former Great Sage of the Qingqiu Clan had not rebelled against the Shadow Clan, the Monster Clan would have been destroyed."
"How was the Soul-Splitting Mountain Spider born?"
Tang Xin'an glanced at Su Anran, and then said quietly: "According to the historical records excavated from the second era of the Mysterious World, the Soul-Splitting Demon Mountain Spider, which is the opposite of the True Dragon and True Phoenix, was born from the gathering of the Nine Nether Grudges. Therefore.
, these monsters only have a vicious nature and will only follow the instinct of resentment to destroy everything in the world. Therefore, there is a heavenly law in the mysterious world. Whenever the Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider is discovered, it must be completely destroyed!"
