Chapter 679: The monk who came to the door (I wish you all a Happy New Year in advance and everything goes well!)
On the official roads of the three palaces, military formations were arranged neatly.
The spears in their hands were tightly grasped, but in the previous indomitable and murderous atmosphere, there was gradually a hint of confusion.
The roars of the demons breaking out of the tower were so real, and the scarlet sunset at the end of the sky was also extremely charming.
There are many signs that indicate the coming of monsters.
But at this moment, the far end of the broad avenue in front of us was eerily empty and lifeless.
The roar in his ears also turned into a faint wail. Even from such a long distance, everyone could actually hear the despair and fear in it.
Until the red sunset glow dissipates and the sky becomes clear again.
They were a little at a loss as they clenched their spears, and looked at each other blankly. The imperial energy in the sky was condensed, but for a moment they didn't know where to calm it down.
After an unknown amount of time, the solemn faces of the generals at the front of the military formation who knew some of the inside story finally turned into joy, with a bit of shock in them.
The current peace is obviously due to the intervention of an expert.
The seniors who are independent from the Eight Divisions of the Immortal Department used this calm to prove to the world that they have the ability to replace the Immortal Court!
Even without those lofty gods and gods, the imperial court itself can still protect all people and bring peace to the four continents!
At the same time, among the three major cities.
The people who live in the same world as the immortals and Buddhas are far more sensitive than those in other places.
As early as when the imperial army was mobilized, they sensed something was wrong and returned home one after another, hoping to avoid disaster.
But as time passed, Fucheng became extremely quiet, so quiet that some brave people couldn't help but go to the streets to check.
"..."
Wushan was sitting in the government office, seemingly closing his eyes to rest, but in fact, his soul had already enveloped the entire city and even the counties outside.
Whether it was the imperial military formation or the demeanor of the people in the mansion, they all fell into his sight.
After a long time, the fat man slowly opened his eyes, with a vague look of confusion on his face.
Wu Shan has always regarded himself as a senior because he really stayed in the imperial court for too many years. Therefore, he watched the Demon Suppression Tower be built with his own eyes.
At that time, he was only at the fifth level, and there were many demon kings among them, which made him feel quite troublesome, and the huge number of them was simply a headache.
Even if he has now reached the fourth-level Taiyi True Immortal Realm, it is impossible to keep so many great demons at the same time.
After all, as long as those monsters see him, they will definitely flee in all directions without hesitation. When the time comes, the monster disaster will not only involve these three palaces, but will most likely affect the entire Southern Continent.
"How on earth is it done?"
Wu Shan stood up and walked out of the government office.
The red clouds that filled the sky previously meant that the demon kings were not fleeing, but were fighting with others. Now that the red clouds have dispersed, and there is no trace of the demons in the three palaces at all, the most likely reason is that they suffered heavy casualties and dispersed in fear. Completely cut off any thoughts of causing harm to the world.
But who did this?
Xianting deliberately ignored it. General Yan was seriously injured and returned home. He probably didn't know about it. As for the Three Immortals and Bodhi Sect, this was their conspiracy. Even if they wanted to play the role of rescuing people, they would never do it. In this situation where no one knows.
As for Ye Lan and Shen Yi, let alone the fact that they need to be ordered to guard the city, even if they do go, they don't have the strength.
Wu Shan thought about it over and over, but still had no result. He cast his gaze in the direction of the Demon Suppression Tower. The next moment, auspicious clouds appeared under his feet and carried him up into the sky.
"..."
But in Jianyang Mansion, a sword light quickly fell down and pointed directly at Shen Zhai.
Before the person arrives, the voice arrives first.
"Something is not right. I plan to go over and investigate. You can keep an eye on Sanfu first and wait for me to come back."
Ye Lan showed up, and just after he finished speaking, his expression changed slightly.
In the deserted courtyard, only Min Zhiyan, the earthly prince, was standing on a crutch with a strange expression, and there was no trace of Shen Yi.
Ye Lan is also a smart person. He has connected with the changes in the world and understood everything in an instant. He said with astonishment on his face: "He is gone?"
Min Zhiyan opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, and finally let out a long sigh: "He left right after you left!"
Even if he is a special one among the Earth Gods and has become an eighth-grade immortal official, how can he stop Master Shen from breathing even if he risks his life.
"Master Ye, don't be anxious, look at this change, it shouldn't be a bad thing."
Seeing Ye Lan's expression change, Min Zhiyan hurriedly offered words of advice.
But even he himself didn't quite believe it, but he had no other choice at the moment, and he really couldn't explain it clearly.
Because the whole thing seemed too weird, as if he, the earthly prince, had teamed up with the three religions to deliberately harm the people in the court.
As soon as the two people left, he encouraged Shen Yi to leave the city.
The dissipating red cloud may not mean that the demons have dispersed and do not dare to invade the divine dynasty again. It may also be that the three religions set up a trap and kidnapped Master Shen.
"..."
When Ye Lan looked at Min Zhiyan again, the chill was already rising in his eyes.
Obviously, this was her first reaction just now.
But soon, Ye Lan took a breath and put away the killing machine.
The first is that Min Zhiyan is indeed different from other Tugong. Although he is an immortal official elsewhere, he is aware of and participates in the affairs of the Immortal Department, but only on the surface as the Eight Divisions.
The land of Jianyang Prefecture has relied on years of diligence and rich experience to protect this place from major incidents. Before he became an immortal official, he was a life-and-death friend of the local magistrate. Only then can he understand The existence of the Demon Slayer Division.
If even he betrays the imperial court, then it doesn't really matter whether he betrays or not. It can only mean that the entire Immortal Court has planned to really take action on the human world.
The second thing is that Shen Yi does have this habit...the other party always does things in the same style.
And before leaving, Ye Lan also noticed that the young man's mood was not right, and even warned him.
"Huh."
Ye Lan took out the jade slip: "Don't move around here first."
After all, she was worried about Mr. Yan's injury before, but now she summoned him quickly and explained the whole matter truthfully.
Ever since they went to Shenxu Mountain together, Shen Yi has long been no longer as simple as an ordinary colleague to Ye Lan, let alone a Nanyang general, but a junior brother who once swore in front of the master's statue that he would never give up until life or death.
The other end of the jade slip listened quietly and did not respond to any lengthy remarks.
The old man's voice was slightly weak, but his tone was as majestic and firm as before: "I know, wait for me."
……
Outside the three mansions, there are more than ten immortal gates.
In the middle of the sky, a cloud of auspicious clouds quickly passed by.
But just by being close to this place, the clouds were stained with blood. When the mountain wind carried the stench into the nose, the figures on the auspicious clouds trembled slightly.
Being in the realm of the divine dynasty, Wushan has not seen such a scene for many years.
He looked down blankly and tried to clench his fists to stabilize his mind.
Blood plasma was like a stream, gathering into a river on the green mountain, running wildly. Huge and fragmented corpses occupied all his sight, with no end in sight.
The collapsed ancient pagoda is leaning diagonally in the depths of the mountains, but there is no sense of desolation at all. It only makes people feel frightened. It seemed that it was not the demons who worked together to break out of the tower, but rather the murderers came and ripped open the tower at will, pulling out the big demons inside like pigs and dogs waiting to be slaughtered, and then blasted them one by one into the mountains and plains. of broken limbs.
As for who the "murderer" is.
Wushan looked sideways and saw another mountain peak far away from the pagoda.
In such a purgatory-like scene, there was a person who was not stained by dust, with a calm face, and a flowing ink shirt. He was sitting here cross-legged, with a sense of transcendence and enlightenment in his handsome features.
The huge contrast made Wu Shan feel ridiculous.
The answer seems obvious.
The Nanyang general came alone, stood in front of the tower, and killed the demons with his own hands. Looking at this posture, there was probably not even a single person who could escape alive.
Such strength was completely beyond Wu Shan's expectations. He originally thought that Shen Yi was at the level of Taiyi Immortal for the first time, and was still far away from Ye Landu.
But based on this battle, to put it bluntly, I am afraid that none of the three Ye Lans are his opponents!
So young and yet so strong.
Wu Shan originally thought that Shen Yi was quite arrogant, usually taciturn, and seemed lukewarm to everyone.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Only now do I realize how arrogant he is... he is clearly low-key.
"Hoo——"
Wu Shan rubbed his eyebrows, remembering how deliberately alienated he was when he was in Jianyang Mansion, and a hint of self-mockery gradually appeared on his face.
He has the strength of the fourth grade, but because he is worried that something will go wrong, he can only sit in the capital.
If this is normal, after all, as a member of the imperial court, it is always right to be cautious.
Before he changed his mind, he planned to leave Sanfu directly. Compared with the young man in front of him, his behavior could be considered ugly.
The other party is the one who truly deserves the title of titled general.
If you think about it more... If Shen Yi had been the person in charge of the Immortal Sect, maybe even his own family could have been saved from destruction.
Wu Shan took one last look at the mountains of corpses. He was a little embarrassed to face the Nanyang general again, so he just put up the auspicious clouds and returned the way he came.
Just plundered less than a hundred miles.
He suddenly frowned and looked towards the other side of Qingshan with some confusion.
The next moment, Wu Shan narrowed his eyes and fell directly.
At the foot of the mountain, two monks, one old and one young, dressed simply, were heading towards the Demon Suppression Tower.
"In the important place of the divine dynasty, idle people retreat."
Wushan could tell with just one glance how bad Shen Yi's condition was now, and how could he let others disturb him.
"Your Majesty, the poor monk is just looking for someone."
The old monk put his palms together and saluted with a polite attitude, while the young monk raised his eyebrows and glanced at Wushan with a slightly unkind look, obviously not convinced.
"Shenchao Demon Killer, what kind of person are you looking for?" Wu Shan moved his steps and stopped in front of the two of them.
"Things in the teaching should not be talked about lightly. I hope the court official will understand." The old monk shook his head. The aura of Arhat that was so obvious before was not a member of the Bodhi Sect. It appeared near the three mansions of Jianyang again. Today it must be... Went to have a look.
"Sorry, inconsiderate."
Wu Shan also shook his head, his attitude extremely determined.
If it were to be called back to the past, he could at most help inform General Zhennan that unless there was an order from above, he would never get involved in the affairs of the three religions for no reason.
But it was different now. Just by the old monk's words, he was sure who the other party was looking for.
Don't forget, General Nanyang has a grudge against the Bodhi Sect, so much so that the Thousand-Armed Bodhisattva just came here to cause trouble.
In this case, how could Wushan let the two people in.
"This is not a place under the jurisdiction of the divine dynasty, and it is not covered by imperial aura. It is owned by our three religions. Why are we not allowed to enter? Do you really think that your imperial court has the final say in this huge human world?"
The young monk finally couldn't bear it anymore and sneered coldly.
The old monk raised his palms to stop his complaints, then said nothing and walked straight forward.
If you want to stop yourself, talking is not enough.
Seeing the two men trying to break through, Wu Shan's eyes filled with coldness. He took a slight step forward and put his shoulder to shoulder, forcibly stopping the old monk's steps.
The moment their bodies touched, their eyes instantly met.
"..."
Wushan's tall and thick physique collided with the old monk's thin body. Neither of them spoke, nor did they seem to exert any force. Not to mention the landslide and ground cracking, even the muddy ground under their feet did not change significantly.
But they seemed to be frozen in place.
Wisps of golden light appeared like ripples on the old monk's body surface, and then became more intense. He stared silently at Wu Shan's fat face. After a long time, blood stains fell from his eye sockets, extended to his chin, and then dripped to the ground. .
"Are you still coming in now?" Wu Shan twitched the corner of his mouth, looking even more domineering.
"Heh."
The old monk closed his eyes. The other party practiced the Three Immortals Teaching method, but it was not the method of refining qi, but a path similar to that of a practitioner.
Of all the dharma in the world, when it comes to physical fitness, the great sutra of Bodhisattva is naturally the most superior dharma. There is absolutely no objection to this.
The other party can resist his own high-ranking Arhat status, which shows that his strength cannot be underestimated.
The old monk opened his eyes again and looked in the direction of the Third Mansion. More importantly, there were many people from the imperial court there who should be arriving soon.
He sighed softly: "You are too arrogant."
Wu Shan gradually put away his smile and said coldly: "Get out!"
The young monk saw something was wrong and hurriedly stepped forward to help the elder. He looked at the fat man angrily, then turned around and quickly left Qingshan.
After the two of them completely disappeared from perception.
Wu Shan lowered his eyes, took a few deep breaths, turned around, and planned to go and inform Shen Yi.
However, just after taking two steps, he knelt unsteadily on the ground, holding his palms on the ground, and his two thick arms twitched like a spasm. Under the skin, the restless golden light crazily hit the limbs and bones, making him Breathing became heavier.
I don't know how long it took to recover.
Wu Shan spat, his head covered with big beads of sweat, and he forced a smile: "Damn, I'm going to take it off this time."
He clearly agreed in advance not to get involved in these things, but why...why in the end, he still couldn't control his legs.
Now Mr. Yan is injured.
If something happens to the other six mansions, and he helps take care of it, then if something goes wrong for him, if something happens to the three mansions under his jurisdiction, who can help Wu Shan?
"What a bitch!"
Wu Shan slapped his face in annoyance.
He pushed himself up and stumbled towards the mountain.
