Under the bright and charming starry sky, a horse gallops in the small Gobi semi-desert area where the barren sand covers the earth and everything is gray and yellow.

There was no cool wind in front of me, but instead it was filled with fine dust, covering my head and face.

Under the fierce force of nature, Yili had to wrap his face with a cloth, leaving only his eyes exposed to determine the direction.

He paid a heavy price for escaping from Jinyang. The Mingyue Guards chased and blocked him all the way from Jinyang to Yanmenguan, which made his injuries worse.

So as soon as he entered the grassland, Yili immediately found a hidden spot, recovered from his injuries, and then took a circuitous route through the Gobi.

Regardless of whether Hu Luguang would send his men out to hunt him down, he had to be on guard.

Crazy, what is crazy is the skill of the sword, not the arrogance of disregarding life.

As long as he returned to the Turkic royal court and reported the matter exactly as it was, he would have completed his mission and even achieved great success.

Because that dark topaz stone is definitely the treasure pursued by martial arts experts.

Yili knew clearly that when his master "Crazy Thunder" Hezhe was traveling in Mobei, he saw the outline of a palace deep in the desert, but it was surrounded by strange thunder and could not get close.

Hezhe sat cross-legged outside the thunder. After three days and three nights, he suddenly realized the nine forms of the thunder knife, turned around and left. After completing the magic, he went to look for it again, but he could no longer find the temple. He regarded it as the "sky" miracle.

This is the deepest secret between master and disciple.

It was precisely because Hezhe told him about this and promised to take him to the desert to find the temple before the deadline that Yili was willing to worship him as his teacher. From then on, he killed many opponents for him and successfully ascended to the position of the Khanate's national advisor.

.

This is not because he is pinning his hopes for promotion on some illusory miracle, but because Yili knows very well that under normal circumstances, he has no way forward.

There seems to be only one word difference between Grandmaster and Grandmaster, but the gap between the two is despairing.

His vigor has been completely lost after three battles with Hezhe. Only the miracle of the legendary temple can help him take a crucial step towards the martial arts realm that he has pursued throughout his life.

And now, another strange object appears.

Yili was not a member of the Demon Sect and did not know that it was the evil emperor's relic, but as a master's sense, he knew at the first glance that this was definitely a rare treasure in the world, and it might help him achieve great success.

Go one step further and become a Grandmaster.

Just like in the original plot, it is not just the Demon Sect that competes for the evil emperor's relics, there are five forces from different countries, different ethnic groups, and different forces.

The essence of more than a dozen old men. Who wouldn’t want such a good treasure?

Yili regretted that he missed this huge opportunity, but he did not regret it, because he wanted to spread the news and use more powerful people in the world to covet the rare objects to get rid of Hu Luguang.

In this world, the distinction between the court and the Jianghu is not so clear. Many Jianghu forces can become official organizations simply by changing their identities, but this does not mean that competition is reduced.

On the contrary, the competition has become more intense, and there is absolutely no such thing as a high-ranking official who would not dare to kill someone.

With enough benefits, the Yingui Sect and the Tianlian Sect jointly assassinated the Northern Qi Emperor Gao Zhan without hesitation. Even the emperor followed suit, so what did Hu Luguang, a captain, mean to him?

As long as the Evil Emperor's relics are used as a guide and Huluguang is eliminated, the threat of the Northern Qi Dynasty will be reduced by at least 30%. The Turkic army can go south and obtain the fertile land of the Central Plains people, countless delicious food, wine, and beautiful women.

There was a ruthless look in Yili's eyes, and he was thinking about how many days it would take before he could officially enter. Suddenly he felt something strange about the horse under him, and he immediately stood up.

"Who! Come out!"

The next moment, the legs of the war horse bent forward, fell softly, and lost their vitality. Yili turned around like a whirlwind in mid-air and looked back.

"Climb the Nandou with your head high, turn over and lean on the North Star, raise your head and look out into the sky, there is no one like me."

At the end of the sky and the earth, with a clear and long chant, a figure slowly appeared.

He was wearing a scholar's uniform, and his whole body was spotless. He was strolling forward, his pace seemed slow but fast, and he looked up at the stars in the sky.

"How did he catch up with me without riding a horse?"

“Although I don’t understand what Zhongyuan’s words mean, they sound very impressive.”

Yili's level of education was not as good as that of Wen Caiting and Danmei, so he couldn't understand her. But when the melodious voice came into his ears, seeing such an unworldly demeanor, he subconsciously raised his head and looked at the stars.

The accustomed stars have become bright and dazzling, extremely beautiful.

"not good!"

This was the spiritual suppression of a cultural man. When he realized this, Huang Shang's figure had already approached within fifty feet. Yili was able to get rid of the suppression, but it was too late and he immediately drew his sword.

Zheng!

With a clear cry of the knife, his heart returned to the moon in the well... Sorry, I missed you. His heart returned to the state of the ancient well without waves, and he accurately grasped the movements of the incoming person.

But this state only lasted for an instant. The next moment, Huang Shang's figure suddenly shook seven times to the left and right at an astonishing high speed, like seven more incarnations, virtual and real, directly locking Yili's mind away.

open.

This is no longer a prototype, but a real phantom magic body technique, which incorporates the explosive use of the seven major acupoints, making it even more exquisite.

In an instant, Huang Shang "disappeared" in Yili's eyes.

The naked eye could obviously see this person approaching, but the sword energy couldn't lock on to it. It was like a phantom between reality and illusion, approaching in such a big way.

As soon as Huang Shang was ten feet away, he suddenly accelerated and suddenly appeared on the left side of Yili, his sleeves sweeping towards his temple.

But just a moment before this, Yili closed his eyes, turned around and swung his sword, bringing out the cold and sharp sword energy. As if divine help foreshadowed, the blade struck Huang Shangfu's sleeve.

Bang!

Both of them put all their strength into it, without the slightest intention of holding back any temptation, and they were both forced to retreat by their respective vigour.

Huang Shang stepped back with a graceful posture. Even if the successor of the Huajian sect was defeated, his hairstyle could not be messed up. However, his simple skills were much inferior to Yili. He retreated a full three feet before he completely released his energy.

.

Yili felt even worse. He was the first person in the world to have Tianyi's Qi enter his body. He felt an indescribable and strange Qi rush along the blade, penetrated into the meridians in his body, and went straight to his head.

go.

The speed and the weird trajectory made him activate the true energy in his meridians without thinking, and he would rather hurt himself than expel it from the body.

As a result, he clearly had the advantage in skill, but he was pushed back and spun away. He staggered before he regained his balance and regained his posture.

Only then did Yili see Huang Shang's appearance clearly. Looking at the young man in front of him who was less than half his age, Yili showed a trace of uncontrollable jealousy in his horror: "Who are you?"

What he wanted to hear was the most famous young master in the Central Plains, but Huang Shang pressed forward again and said calmly: "A teacher in Jinyang City..."

Yili was stunned: "What did you say?"

Huang Shang smiled and said in his heart: "Of course, after I kill you, I will change my job."

Even if he comes here alone, he still maintains his personality and will not say a word that is not in line with Shi Zhixuan's setting.

But killing people, especially Turks, is very consistent with what Shi Zhixuan did.

"Here, let the great master have no heirs!"

"Arrogant!"

Yi Li was originally an arrogant and arrogant person, but he was also made furious by Huang Shang's attitude. However, as his anger grew stronger, his heart became calmer, and he seemed to be above his own emotions, controlled by the intention of the knife.

Drive combat.

There was nothing wonderful about this feeling. His mad sword immediately slashed out, and a powerful energy passed through the blade, making a hissing sound, and pushed towards Huang Shang like a wall.

The purpose of this sword was to restrain the phantom and the real phantom. As long as Huang Shang reacted, Yili would be able to judge the position, angle and force of the opponent's attack under the guidance of Qi.

Similarly, this sword can also fully activate his nearly one-kilometer-long skill.

Stupid methods do not mean that they are not clever. Defeating ten skills at once is what many top masters pursue.

But Huang Shang showed a faint smile and shook his head left and right.

Every time it shakes, Yili's "Qi Jin Knife Field" is deflected in the direction of the shake.

Yili knew something was wrong, and the blade, which was equivalent to the third eye, immediately sensed it, accelerated quickly, and struck Huang Shang like lightning.

The blade failed.

Under Yi Li's disbelieving gaze, the sword that should have been able to hit Huang Shang's chest, but even forced him to counterattack head-on, actually cut directly to the side. Huang Shang's figure was like a mirage, appearing inexplicably before him.

In front of him, he slapped the Crazy Saber with his horizontal palm.

This master who had been tempered for thousands of years suddenly had a terrifying understanding of the magic of phantom magic.

This kind of movement is not only extremely fast and strange, but also can cause the opponent to have a certain degree of hallucination in terms of energy, so what he saw was indeed a mirage, what Huang Shang wanted him to see.

Bang!

Even though there was a gap in skill between the two, when the palm hit, Yili felt an ingenious tearing force that made his weapon fall away.

Don't forget, he is one-armed and does not have the ability to hand the sword to his left hand. For a swordsman, getting away with a long sword is basically doomed to defeat.

At this critical moment, Yili changed his moves in an emergency. His thick five fingers made various dexterous changes, and actually blocked all the tearing force. He stepped back, and the sword's momentum changed, and it was picked at Huang Shang's palm.

Huang Shang showed admiration, his palm turned into a finger, and he pointed the blade straight.

The ever-changing Tianyi Qi turned into a highly concentrated awl this time, hitting the tip of the knife hard.

puff!

Yili was shocked to the point of blood boiling again, and retreated in the original direction as if he was electrocuted.

His face was green and white, and his injuries from the previous siege in Jinyang City were already threatening to explode.

Huang Shang was unyielding, his palm turned into a fist, and he punched from the air. Tianyi's true energy once again turned into a fierce and unrivaled energy, completely covering Yili.
