Chapter 248 Star Lord’s Projection
As Lin Shan's figure disappeared, Protector Qiu, who had been running at high speed and always paying attention to the rear, panicked. He who had originally breathed a sigh of relief became nervous again.
In his heart, he secretly scolded the Xun Gu leader for "pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger". He was obviously stronger than himself, but he also deliberately showed his weakness to his enemy.
I really don’t talk about martial ethics.
However, he couldn't help but think too much. In less than half a cup of tea, a strong wind suddenly came to his ears. This was a phenomenon that would only be triggered when someone faster than him passed by.
Protector Qiu was rich in experience and immediately stopped his running body. Right in front of him, the cyan wind swirled in the air, and the light spots gathered together to form the figure of Xun Gu Cult Leader Lin Shan.
Lin Shan seemed to still be surprised at the magic of the Wind Escape Talisman at the level of a small magical power. He raised his palm and looked at it. He didn't seem worried that his opponent could escape.
Protector Qiu was so frightened that he hurriedly turned around and fled in the other direction.
Lin Shan smiled slightly and once again activated the small magic spell, his body floated like broken sand, turning into green light spots and dispersing in the sky.
"Shua~"
A whirlwind gathered in front of Protector Qiu, and the broken sand light spots gathered into the sand. Lin Shan looked at him with a smile on his face.
"???!!!"
Protector Qiu had a ghostly expression on his face. He finally stopped the car and almost stumbled in the air. He rolled and crawled around and ran away again.
But under the teasing of Lin Shan's cat and mouse, he couldn't run away at all and could only be stopped again and again. The aqua blue magic sword also followed him like a shadow, chopping at him constantly. This meant that the enemy was always by his side. Never lost track!
"Poof~"
"Click."
Protector Qiu was so shocked by the flying sword that his internal organs hurt, his energy and blood surged, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
They were already in a constant battle and were in poor condition. Now they couldn't withstand the continuous output. Even with the iron ropes to protect themselves, they were gradually failing.
Even the sound of breaking, although slight, was like a bell in his ears, setting off a stormy sea.
This was not the sound of the magic weapon breaking on his body, but the cracking sound of the golden elixir in his body!
He was already old and frail. First he forcibly burned his essence to restore his youthful fighting strength, and then fought with Lin Shanhuo for three hours. Then he burned his blood and flew such a long distance, and then was slashed so many times by the magical flying sword. , Jin Dan finally couldn't bear it anymore.
The few cracks that appeared faintly just now have gradually changed from toothpick lines to pomegranate seams!
Looking inside at the golden elixir in his dantian, Elder Protector Qiu's face was pale, and his hands and feet were cold. He knew that if he dragged on any longer, once the golden elixir could no longer bear the load and fell apart, his energy and spirit would be instantly devastated.
Not only was Sanhua severely damaged, but his realm was also likely to fall. At that time, he would definitely be a piece of meat on the chopping board. He would have no choice but to be slaughtered by others!
"Okay, okay! Master Xungu, you are so powerful at such a young age, and you have the wind escape technique at your side. I think you are only like this in the middle stage of the Golden Core. I am blind in this trip. What are you going to do to let me go!"< br>
Protector Qiu simply stopped running away, sweat dripping from his forehead. It is natural for a person to cherish his life when he is about to die, and his act of begging for mercy was nothing more than instinct.
He has lived for such a long time and has witnessed the heyday of the Nine Nether Sect. He has been promoted from an outer sect disciple to an inner sect protector. He has enjoyed visits from all directions and the wooing of elders from various sects. He is proud of himself and has unlimited success.
Later, when the huge Jiuyou Sect collapsed, he followed the young master of Jiuyou as a personal slave and traveled abroad. He was homeless and suffered from the warmth and cold of the world. He finally hid in Yuanmo Sect for half a century, and finally the young master found a Yuanying. He was preparing to rely on his long-term backer, but on the eve of his defection, he suffered such a big setback in the State of Lu!
Just to take back an old Mo who was in the foundation building stage, he would risk his own life. This was something he never expected.
Now people under the eaves have to bow their heads.
He is a demonic monk, so naturally he doesn't care about being shameless. He shamelessly begs Lin Shan for mercy, even if he pays a huge price, as long as he can save his life.
However, Lin Shan had no intention of talking nonsense with him.
Because he has been in an embarrassing state of kidney deficiency since he practiced the "Huangzhu Heshen Technique". He just wants to finish things here quickly and get back the "Nine Transformations of the Golden Body" to practice hard. There is no way to talk to him. Kungfu?
As long as you die, everything you own will be mine!
As for the power behind you, you can order the disciples of Xun Gu Sect to inquire after you go back. Isn’t this sect raising a bunch of trash just for work?
Lin Shan was very angry at his men's failure to live up to expectations, so he directed all his anger at Protector Qiu. For a moment, he controlled the flying sword to attack fiercely. The soul pill in his mud pill was still spitting out soul power, and the battery life was endless. Although he looks weak on the outside, he is actually incredibly strong!
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!"
Protector Qiu was shaken in the sky and retreated repeatedly. The green magic fire on the iron rope had long been extinguished because he had no extra mana to maintain it. It was good to be able to use the rope dart to protect himself.
Seeing Lin Shan's reluctance, Protector Qiu screamed in grief.
"Master Xun Gu, please don't bully others too much. Do you really think I'm at the end of my rope? I just don't want to fight you to the death!"
Lin Shan fiercely attacked, pretending not to know, and made up his mind not to talk nonsense with him. This is a good habit of time travellers. The villain will never die from talking too much.
Protector Qiu kept coughing up blood, with more and more wrinkles on his face, and his hair began to turn from black to white. This was a sign of excessive loss of essence in the body, which meant that his life span was being depleted at a rapid rate, which was reflected in his cultivation level. , proving that his golden elixir is disintegrating from within.
When he falls from the golden elixir stage, his four-hundred-year lifespan will be taken away by heaven and earth, and he will return to the two-hundred-year lifespan of the foundation-building stage. At that time, the front and back will collide, and he will die of old age in an instant. This kind of ending There is no suspense at all.
He thought back on his life, and countless episodes passed through his mind like a fleeting glance. In the end, the desire to survive took over. He really didn't want to die!
Fight!
Protector Qiu's face was ferocious, and he had no choice but to take something out of his storage bag. This was a magic weapon that the young master gave him to control. He could use it to join forces with other Golden Core Protectors at critical moments to perform heaven-defying magic. A treasure that transcends levels of combat power.
Now, at the critical moment of life and death, he didn't care about the consequences of using this magic weapon in advance. Even if he was deprived of the position of protector by the young master after returning, or even knocked down from the realm and thrown into the Paolao Basin, it would be worse than It's better to die here now.
"Buzz~"
A simple bronze door was erected above the white clouds.
This bronze door is one foot high and three feet wide. It is dotted with black and green patterns of time, and there are still sporadic blood stains. The edges of the door frame are pitted. It seems that it has suffered countless sieges a long time ago, and there are potholes of different sizes.
Lin Shan was suddenly startled. He didn't know what this old guy had released again. Why did he have to use it now when he didn't use it earlier?
Protector Qiu used the iron rope to protect his body, and regardless of it, he raised his hands to worship the heaven and the earth. A surging power radiated from the bronze door, and the sound of surging waves could be faintly heard, as well as the roars of countless soldiers and horses fighting.
"The stars in the sky lend me their star power, give me their star soul, and push open the star gate."
"We sincerely welcome Star Lord to come!"
"Boom!~~~"
From outside the sky, a thick beam of star power shot straight down, impacted on the bronze door, circulated around the door frame, and poured huge star power directly into Protector Qiu. The originally weak Protector Qiu immediately glowed with divine light, and his body was filled with strength. Replenish it.
Lin Shan's magical flying sword struck him again, but it was no longer able to knock him back. He could only hear the sound of "ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding."
Protector Qiu didn't care about this, and just concentrated on actuating the bronze door. It seemed that summoning star power to infuse was just the most basic method, and there would be more promising moves in the future.
"Respect the stars, beg for protection, ward off disasters, and join the world to fight against the enemy. Lord Wan Wangxing answers the call!"
"Creak~~~"
The dull skin of the bronze door began to crack and fall, and the harsh sound echoed around the world. The door in the door frame seemed to be opened, and it was not known which Star Lord projection would be summoned to help.
At this time, a cold inquiry came from somewhere invisible behind the other side of the door, which seemed to be the voice of a young man. "Huh? Who is using the Stargate?
Are you Qiu Qianren? Didn’t I send you to the State of Lu to bring Lao Mo back? Now that I think about it, I should have already joined the service of True Lord Kurong. Why do I need to beg Star Lord for projection? ”
Lin Shan was shocked. He didn't know who was speaking. How could he transmit sounds through this bronze door?
Protector Qiu bowed to the portal and responded: "Young Master, this old slave is now in a life-and-death situation and has no choice but to boldly use the Star Gate. Please, Young Master, delegate the authority to summon Star Lord to help me kill the powerful enemy and escape."
Lin Shan watched Protector Qiu talking on the phone with the person behind the door, feeling uneasy and uncertain for no reason.
Stargate? Young Master?
Could it be the young master of Jiuyoumen?
Behind that door?
What will happen if you open the door and directly summon the young master of the Nine Nether Sect? Or Xingjun's projection?
As for which star king in the sky, he didn't know, but he must be very powerful.
At this time, Protector Qiu had star power infused into his body to protect his body, temporarily resisting Lin Shan's flying sword, and was briefly communicating with the young master inside the door.
Only a cold reprimand was heard from behind the door:
"Waste!"
Protector Qiu lowered his head and did not dare to answer, so he could only bear it silently.
"I gave you the Star Gate Artifact so that you can practice it diligently and form a star formation with other guardians in the future to open the secret treasure of True Monarch Yu Xing. However, you didn't listen to my instructions and now you are implicated too early. Star power, a waste of opportunity to lead!”
"It's true that more success than failure leads to failure!"
"You can't turn the tide with the power of the stars, but you want me to send the projection of the star king. What kind of waste are you!"
Protector Qiu did not dare to pretend to be deaf, so he could only respond tremblingly:
"Young Master, the enemy I encountered this time is too powerful. It is difficult to win by just summoning star power. I can only ask you to send the projection of Star Lord. It is not a pity for me to die. The key is to fear that the Star Gate will fall into the enemy's hands!" ”
There was a burst of anger behind the bronze door. You can imagine how much the young master over there hated him.
I just asked you to pick up Lao Mo who was in the foundation building period. How could you do this?
"Before leaving, I repeatedly stressed that you should keep a low profile and don't fight with others. Why did you still make a big mistake? Are you being besieged by the cultivation world of the Lu Kingdom? Or are you meeting a group of mortal enemies from all over the world who are also concerned about the secrets?"
Protector Qiu answered honestly:
"No, it's a second-rate sect called Xun Gu Sect. They killed Lao Mo, and then his leader came to hunt me down personally."
The young master behind the door was even more furious.
"Xungujiao? What the hell? You are also a great protector of our Jiuyou Sect. Why can't you defeat a wild golden elixir?"
"Young Master, this Xun Gu Cult Leader obviously has the power of the middle stage of the Golden Core, but he is cunning and insidious. He deliberately showed his weakness to the enemy, worked hard at every step, and deceived me into fighting with him. In the end, he..."
"That's nonsense!"
Lin Shan stood up at this time and expressed deep contempt for the slander of Protector Qiu. I have been upright from the beginning to the end, and I have been upright and suppressing you. Where is the conspiracy?
But at this time, kidney deficiency struck, and he couldn't help but wipe his sweat and cough.
"Cough cough cough~~~"
Protector Qiu had a look of grief and anger on his face, and he jumped up and pointed at him: "Look, look, it's the same thing again!"
"Huh? Who are you?"
Young Master Jiuyou behind the bronze door was very surprised. He felt that there seemed to be someone on the other side, so he asked through the door.
Protector Qiu quickly explained: "Young Master, this person is"
"That's right! I won't change my name in practice, or my surname in sitting. My name is...well. That doesn't matter! You just need to know that my name is Xiongshanren!"
Lin Shan's habit of blaming someone else happened again at the critical moment. Anyway, he threw it to no one, so he blamed it all on Xiong Shanren. Anyway, this guy is a cockroach, and he is the only one who can withstand my disaster along the way. Body, why don't you catch him and beat him to death?
Qiu Hufa was confused. Aren't you the leader of Xun Gu? Why did a man from Xiong Mountain pop up again? Could it be
Xiongshanren, is this the Dharma name you came up with on the spur of the moment?
He was puzzled.
Young Master Jiuyou on the other side of the door seemed a little impatient. Maintaining communication between the two places inside and outside the door cost a lot of money, and he had no time to argue with the two of them here.
"Okay! Don't give me nonsense. This time I will send the Star Lord projection to you. Please explain it to me when you come back!"
"What little Xungu Cult dares to provoke me, Jiuyoumen, is simply asking for death!"
"My young master is too lazy to listen to random dharma calls. Remember to give birth to a good child when you go to the underworld!"
……
"Boom~~~"
There was a loud noise behind the door, as if there was some powerful being communicating and calling, and the bronze door began to creak loudly again, trying to open the door and let out the people inside.
Protector Qiu was overjoyed. He seemed to know how powerful Xingjun's projection was. He looked at the bronze gate expectantly, waiting for the moment of Jedi's comeback.
The stars in the sky are pouring continuously, Protector Qiu is full of star power, the bronze door is simple and thick, and is slowly opening the door, preparing to let Lin Shan, an ant who dares to offend the Nine Nether Sect, taste what despair feels like.
At this moment, there was a sudden movement in Linshan's storage bracelet. After hesitating for a moment, he took out the source of the movement.
An exquisite silver compass.
A pointer on it was shaking towards the bronze door, all the runes of the twenty-four equal circles were lit up, the heavenly stems and the earthly branches, the stars and the Milky Way were flashing, and clusters of nebulae were floating on the compass, as if they were preparing for something.
Lin Shan still didn't understand what was going on with the virtual star disk, and why he was so excited.
Suddenly, all the starlight in the sky stopped flowing, stopped abruptly, neither rising nor falling. Even Protector Qiu and the bronze gate lost their support, and the light around them dimmed.
Protector Qiu had received the baptism of star power just now, but now he stood there blankly, staring at what he knew.
The bronze door was pushed open just a tiny crack before it could stand.
Immediately afterwards, the huge Star Power Pillar suddenly changed its direction, abandoned Protector Qiu and the bronze gate, and instead swooped down towards Lin Shan!
Lin Shan: "???"
Protector Qiu: "???"
Young Master Jiuyou: "???"
