Chapter 508 Changes in Sunset City
Sunset City.
The howling night wind made the corners of Hai Linjun's clothes rustle.
Wearing a thick war robe and a blue cloak, he stood on the city wall like a general guarding the city in Sunset City, looking at the garrison in front of him that had changed its structure. Cheng Dazhen, his eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something.
Behind him were several other heads of the seven major families in Sunset City, standing in the rear as if they were serving the Hai family.
Further behind are the elders and elites of the Hai family and the other seven major families...
And Ding Hui is also among the ranks of the Hai family, but he is in a quite far back position. .
After all, she can only be regarded as a family member of the guest. Logically speaking, she is not even qualified to appear here. However, Ding Hui has already demonstrated her ability and is highly valued by the Hai family. Naturally, she has her current place. .
"Report!!!"
The urgent report came, attracting everyone's attention.
But...
"My lord, Lord Shengyuan, they have urgently tested the city defense formation, but no matter what the test, all the results show...the city defense formation, everything is normal!"
< br>When Hai Linjun heard this, his expression did not change.
On the other hand, Coach Ma, who heard the report from behind, his face darkened.
Is everything OK?
Then why does it start suddenly!
Even trapped everyone to death in the city!
The function of the city defense formation is to defend the city, not to trap the city. The method of trapping everyone in the city is called the blockade formation!
"Master Hai, it's just that the formation suddenly changed, so there's no need to mobilize troops like this, right?"
The head of the Ke family was woken up by an emergency report in the middle of the night, and it seemed that he was still awake.
"The change in the formation is indeed strange. Could it be that some big demon appears around and activates our city defense formation?"
The head of the Qing family also raised a possibility.
But the rest of the people frowned and remained silent.
Because the city defense formation has always been maintained by Qingling Taoist Temple.
If there is a problem with the city defense formation, it can only be a problem with Qingling Taoist Temple.
What kind of existence is Qingling Taoist Temple? It is a terrifying existence that can suppress the entire city with the power of one party, or one person.
If something goes wrong with the formation and someone does something wrong, the consequences will be unimaginable!
The worst ideas came to mind, but no one dared to ask the question head-on.
Only a lot of people secretly cast their sights directly ahead, at the majestic back of the head of the Hai family.
Could it be true that... what he said...
Shaking their heads slightly, everyone quickly shook off this dangerous thought.
Right now, the formation is suddenly activated, and there is no danger around, so they still have time to consider countermeasures.
“Since Lord Shengyuan has sent people to test the formation, let us also send some people to help.”
The head of the Qing family spoke, and the other seven families The heads of the family also came to their aid.
Is there more power with more people? Since we don’t know what’s wrong with the formation, then send more people to detect and repair it. Once the formation is repaired, the problem will naturally be solved.
Everyone seems to be interested in thinking about the problem in a simple way.
But Hai Linjun went straight to the core of the problem and made shocking remarks.
"I have sent people to control all the remaining people in Qingling Taoist Temple."
The faces of the other family heads changed.
"Master Hai?! Why is this?"
"Master Hai, don't be impulsive. Release everyone in Qingling Taoist Temple quickly. If Taoist Master Qingling comes back and finds out about this, he will be misunderstood!"
Hai Linjun turned around, He revealed half of his calm side face and stared coldly at these timid people.
"Only the Qingling Taoist Temple can access the city defense formation. There is a problem with the formation now. Who can we arrest if we don't arrest them!"
The remaining six family heads, look at me , I looked at you, but they were all silent.
Hai Linjun then continued to look down from the city wall, leaving his back to everyone.
"Everyone, don't be confused anymore. You should know better than me what is going on with Taoist Qingling now. He is going crazy!"
Crazy.
Of course you have to be crazy.
It is possible for people to do crazy things when they are about to die.
That’s why they wanted to stabilize Taoist Qingling and let him pass away naturally.
We don’t even know the situation of the city defense formation now, but you suddenly want to force people to a dead end. Doesn’t this force us to make a choice?
The head of the Qing family has an ugly face. He has been tactful all his life. What he hates to do the most is to be forced to take sides and make a clear distinction between right and wrong.
The rest of the family heads are similar.
After so many years in Sunset City, who doesn’t know how terrifying Taoist Priest Qingling is, and who doesn’t know the ambitions of the Hai family.
But I know that if they directly resist Taoist Qingling openly, it will cost them all their wealth and the lives of everyone in the family, so this kind of thing can only be done privately. Come slowly and quietly.
But now, the situation seems to be a little out of control.
"Master Hai, your plan is no different from destroying Sunset City."
Finally, after a short silence, someone spoke.
But what he said made Ding Hui, who secretly used the demon organ to eavesdrop, feel a little troubled.
These guys, in order to fight against Taoist Qingling, what means are they preparing? They actually say that they are somewhat sure that they can fight against Taoist Qingling.
"Everything only exists in theory of that guy Sheng Yuan. You trust that guy too much! Once there is a problem with the operation, all of us in Sunset City will be buried with your madness! Then you will be as crazy as you were before you died. What’s the difference between Taoist Priest Qingling?”
The head of the Ke family also spoke with the same objection.
"Master Hai, don't force us. Things haven't reached that point yet, and we won't make the final decision easily before we know what happened."
Ding Hui's heart Confuse.
These guys seem to have made some preparations to fight against Taoist Qingling, but the specific preparations are all well hidden.
As for the city defense formation in front of them, Fang Yu had told them that the formation when Tianyuan Town was destroyed was quite similar in performance, both were internally blocked.
It’s strange.
One may be a coincidence, but it’s hard to say for the other two, especially Tianyuan Town and Sunset City. In fact, from the map perspective, they are not too far apart.
Could it be that these two kinds of city defense formations are actually the same thing? Or the same formation foundation?
It seems that the ancient formations were unreliable. If you change them at will, they will become a blockade formation.
Ding Hui became interested in it and planned to study it in the future.
At this moment, Ding Hui noticed that the heads of the seven major families in front of them all stopped arguing and looked in a certain direction.
Ding Hui looked in that direction secretly with the eyes of a demon, and saw a guy wearing Taoist robes, walking towards Sunset City step by step in the night.
It was the arrival of this person that interrupted the conversation among the seven family heads and plunged the scene into silence.
"Qing Ling...Taoist Priest..."
Someone murmured something and revealed the identity of the person coming.
Ding Hui frowned. Taoist Priest Qingling, didn't he leave with Diao Deyi's expedition team? Why is he the only one back now? Could it be...
Ding Hui's expression changed and he clenched his fists.
Although she believed in Fang Yu's strength, the fact that only Taoist Priest Qingling was back now inevitably made her think too much.
At this moment, Taoist Priest Qing Ling, who was under the city wall, stopped, raised his head, and looked at each other from a distance through the translucent barrier of the city defense formation with the head of the Hai family on the city wall.
"Has it started? There's not much difference in time. How about it? Everyone, do you like the gifts I gave you?"
Taoist Master Qingling's voice was calm but clear. into everyone's ears.
But just such a sentence made everyone change their minds on the spot! The whole scene seemed to be exploding, and some people screamed in fear.
“Lord Qingling, is this weird defensive city really your handiwork??”
"Taoist Priest Qingling, don't be ridiculous, quickly restore the formation to normal so that we can open the city gates and welcome the Taoist Priest back."
"What are you talking about... Taoist Priest Qingling, you What are you talking about? Are you being controlled by a demon? Why didn’t the others come back with you? "
Taoist Master Qingling ignored these questions. He looked at Hai Linjun on the city wall.
Amidst the lights of thousands of houses and the vast sea of people in Sunset City, there was only one person, only this man, who truly threatened him.
But, it’s not enough.
The gap in strength makes this threat always just a threat.
The only thing that really troubles Taoist Qingling is his own physical condition!
His enemy is himself!
"Hai Linjun, and the rest of you, don't worry. I won't kill everyone. I just want Qingling Taoist Temple to still stand here after thousands of years." On the land, he is still... the uncrowned king of Sunset City."
As soon as these words came out, everyone knew that Taoist Qingling was going to do something big.
All the family heads shouted quickly.
"Don't be impulsive, Taoist Master Qingling! We are willing to recognize Qingling Taoist Temple as the king!"
"Qingling Taoist Temple has always been the real overlord of Sunset City, no matter in the past or in the future, no matter what It will change!”
Everyone wanted to appease Taoist Qingling.
But it’s useless. Taoist Master Qingling knows what human nature is like, and he also knows how to solve it once and for all.
The city defense formation will protect his successor Lei Qingzi, and he will only release the seal when he grows strong enough in the city.
During this period, no one in Sunset City will surpass Lei Qingzi in terms of strength and talent.
Because the existence beyond Lei Qingzi will be obliterated by him tonight.
To Taoist Priest Qingling at this moment, the voices of other people were just noises.
Only Hai Linjun deserves his attention.
Because this person is the only threatening enemy left in Sunset City.
"Is there anything you want to say? Hai Linjun."
Hai Linjun, who was on the city wall, let out a long sigh after hearing this.
"Taoist Master Qingling, you and I will eventually have this battle. But I didn't expect that it would unfold in this way, let alone that you would reach this point. It's simply... heartbreaking. !”
Taoist Priest Qingling smiled.
Morality cannot restrain him.
The moment he took this step, the only thing that could restrain him was his fist! Stronger fist! Harder punch!
Smiling, Taoist Priest Qingling walked to the city defense formation.
Under the gaze of everyone on the city wall.
Taoist Priest Qingling raised his hand and placed it on the formation.
Then...
Nothing happened.
Taoist Priest Qingling’s smiling expression gradually solidified.
"How... could this happen?"
The transformation of the formation will protect Sunset City into a more powerful internal and external blockade.
Outsiders can't get in, and people inside can't get out. It's like a paradise.
For this purpose, Taoist Priest Qingling has already laid out a sufficiently cyclical production system within Sunset City, and has subtly improved Sunset City, and this improvement has been implemented in Sunset City. After Lei Qingzi took over his name, it was even more optimized and accelerated.
What remains is to control the number of people and ensure that this internal cycle of ecological systems can be maintained without interference.
But now, there is a problem with the formation.
Because now, he can't get in.
This is impossible, because after the city defense formation is improved, he will be the one with the highest authority, with the authority to come and go freely, and he can transfer this authority to his successor Lei Qingzi at any time.
But now, there is a problem, a big problem.
"I'm surprised, your formation doesn't obey your command."
The sound on the city wall sounded, causing Taoist Qingling to raise his head.
“What did you do?”
Hai Linjun's paralyzed expression finally changed slightly.
"This is probably the first time that I have been looked at by you like this. It's simple, you are too arrogant, Taoist Priest Qingling, you are arrogant and have ignored some people."
“What do you mean?”
“The formation was designed and improved by you, but the implementation down to every detail is the result of the cooperation of many people.”
Qing Lingdao The chief understood it all of a sudden and was stunned on the spot.
"You...incited my people? Impossible! Those people are all loyal to me, how could they betray me! As the head of the Hai family, what conditions can you give them to betray me!"
Hai Linjun smiled.
“It’s not me who makes them betray you, it’s you, Taoist Priest Qingling!”
“Me?!”
Taoist Priest Qingling At a loss.
"Don't you understand yet? Everyone knows that you are going to die! Everyone knows that you are at the end of your life! You are going to die. You want to embrace others and die together with Sunset City. You want to transform the formation, and you want to do something big! But Others don’t want it! You are arrogant and think you have everything under control, but you ignore the simplest and most fundamental human nature!”
“The formation of Sunset City was indeed transformed by you, and the transformation was successful. It has been approved by you, and what I have done is just a small improvement based on yours."
Taoist Priest Qingling frowned.
The operation and maintenance of the formation in Sunset City have always been maintained by his subordinates from Qingling Taoist Temple. In other words, those people have long been instigated to rebel!
Taoist Qingling, who understood everything, exhaled.
"Really, originally I just wanted to make things end simply, but unexpectedly, something went wrong. But...do you think I'm really helpless?"
Raise your palms and clap your hands. !
The clever...cutting technique! !
Bang! ! !
A wave of bloody steam, centered on Taoist Priest Qingling's palm, spread along the entire Sunset City formation, spreading instantly to every corner of the formation, and affecting every corner of the formation. ...some people!
