Chapter 433
Tian Jiangzi looked at the vast sea of fire sweeping across the sky in front of him and trembled all over. He hadn't seen this kind of Daoist art for many years. Since the Age of Dharma Decline, Daoist cultivators had been very stingy with their magic power and rarely performed such top-tier Daoist arts. And even if they really performed them, they would control the power to avoid exhausting their magic power.
But the art of calling the wind in front of him didn't look like something a Five Qi Realm Daoist cultivator could perform at all, because a Five Qi Realm Daoist cultivator didn't have such robust magic power.
This former Three-Flower Realm expert also felt a sense of despair at this moment. He had just made a move and performed the art of overturning rivers, and now his remaining magic power was not enough to resist the surging sea of fire in front of him.
"Hateful, I, Tian Jiangzi, have roamed for a lifetime, and now in my late years in the Age of Dharma Decline, am I going to be killed in reverse by a junior at the first level of the Five Qi Realm?"
He roared unwillingly, and then the crystal-clear Flower of Primordial Spirit above his head withered immediately. With the last bit of Primordial Spirit power, he sacrificed the Daoist instrument he had nurtured for many years.
That was a purple-gold gourd with talismans engraved on it. At this moment, it produced radiance, grew in the wind, and turned into the size of a small mountain, blocking in front of him.
The next moment.
The strong wind and fierce fire swept over. The scorching breath drilled into the lungs through the pores, burning the soul and destroying the body. It was extremely terrifying, even more terrifying than the art of Dividing Rivers into Land performed by Xiang Xiangzi earlier. And this fire Qi was pervasive. Even though the purple-gold gourd blocked most of the attack, the remaining fire Qi still burned his two arms.
In just a moment, Tian Jiangzi's two arms turned into charcoal, and then as the wind blew, the charcoal turned into ashes again.
And a bone-eroding pain came from his body, and the feeling of burning filled his whole body, making Tian Jiangzi fall to the ground in pain, screaming again and again.
A Three-Flower Realm expert was still like this under the protection of a Daoist instrument. The other armored soldiers brought were even more pitiful. As soon as the firelight rolled, they all stood still on the spot. When they looked again, they had all turned into human-shaped charcoal, and just a breeze blew, and they completely vanished into smoke.
The art of calling the wind was actually so terrifying.
No wonder Xiang Xiangzi didn't belittle his Daoist arts no matter how she scolded the Bald Daoist, but very much hoped that Li Yi would learn it.
If such a terrifying Daoist art was not learned, it would be a real waste of heaven's gifts.
The other two Daoists were also terrified. One flew into the air, wanting to fly away from this place and avoid the range of Li Yi's Daoist art, but just as he flew into the air, the fire Qi swept over. Under the shroud of this breath, he screamed and burned himself to death in mid-air. The other Daoist also sacrificed a top-grade Dharma instrument, the Meteor Bell, in despair, covering himself, hoping to block this sea of fire. This Daoist was not a Three-Flower Realm expert at his peak and could not afford to nurture a Daoist instrument. It was already not bad to have a top-grade Dharma instrument preserved intact.
Under the sea of fire, the ground was scorched. Fortunately, this was inside the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, and the surroundings were all wasteland, otherwise, if performed in the Dao Court city, I don't know how many houses and buildings would be destroyed.
"Good, killed well."
Seeing the miserable state of those people, the injured Xiang Xiangzi couldn't help but clap and laugh.
After being bullied by the Tianyi Sect for so many years, she could finally raise her eyebrows and exhale once.
"Only at the first level of the Five Qi Realm, and he can perform such a powerful art of calling the wind. It's simply incredible."
Xuan Yuezi was also stunned at this moment. As a former Three-Flower Realm expert, she had also seen the art of calling the wind. A spell of this power could not be performed even by a Five Qi Realm fifth-level Daoist cultivator, and only the Returning to the Origin Realm could compare with it.
And not only that, Li Yi actually possessed twelve strands of heart fire Qi.
This was even more unprecedented.
The Five Qi Realm practices the five internal organs, and the heart fire corresponds to the heart. A person has at most one strand of heart fire Qi, just with different sizes. Let alone twelve strands of heart fire Qi, even practicing a second strand of heart fire Qi is impossible, otherwise how can you balance the other four strands of Qi later?
If the five elements are not balanced, once the Five Qi return to the origin, if the heart fire Qi is too strong, it will immediately burn the Primordial Spirit and take its own destruction. Only when the five elements are combined and balanced can they nourish the Primordial Spirit and bloom the Flower of Primordial Spirit.
Xuan Yuezi had practiced the Dao for so many years and couldn't understand it at all.
Is what Tai Yi practicing still Daoist arts?
But no matter what, Xuan Yuezi had no need to make a move at this moment. She slowly put down the high-energy sniper rifle in her hand.
Because the enemies were almost wiped out under the wind-calling.
Producing such a shocking Daoist cultivator in the Age of Dharma Decline is simply everyone's nightmare. Tian Jiangzi was also really unlucky. As a Three-Flower Realm expert, he met such a freak in the Age of Dharma Decline and was defeated across levels. It was simply extremely aggrieved. If spiritual energy hadn't disappeared, why would he fear the art of calling the wind?
Along with the scorching wind and fire Qi dissipating, the piece in front of him turned into scorched earth, and nothing was left.
No.
There were still two artifacts on this scorched earth.
One was a purple-gold gourd, still shining brightly, without any damage. The other was the Meteor Bell, which was full of cracks under the scorching of the fire Qi. It stands to reason that the art of calling the wind of this power could not destroy a top-grade Dharma instrument, but this top-grade Dharma instrument obviously had serious loss of spirituality and did not return to its peak state. After resisting one blow, it had reached its limit.
Crack!
The sound of cracking echoed, followed by the Meteor Bell collapsing and shattering, and then a charred corpse fell out from inside. The corpse died miserably, as if it had been smoked to death by smoke and fire.
"Cough, cough."
But behind the purple-gold gourd, a painful coughing sound echoed. Tian Jiangzi fell to the ground, his face also black, but he survived.
After all, he was worthy of being a Three-Flower Realm expert. Even in the Age of Dharma Decline, his vitality was very tenacious.
But his arms were burned out, his lungs were burned, his five Qi were unbalanced, and his vitality was greatly damaged. Even if he survived now, he was already a cripple.
Li Yi arrived riding the clouds, grabbed from the air, and the purple-gold gourd immediately changed hands. And without magic power to maintain it, the purple-gold gourd quickly shrank, turned into half a foot in size, and was held in his hand.
"This is Tian Jiangzi's low-grade Daoist instrument, the Purple-Gold Gourd, which has its own cave heaven, contains Three Evil God Sands, can close people's heart acupoints, destroy people's Flower of Primordial Spirit, and is very powerful. But now I'm afraid he can't afford to nurture that gourd of Three Evil God Sands. Now this Purple-Gold Gourd can only be reduced to an ordinary Daoist instrument, and its power is greatly reduced." Xiang Xiangzi on the side said immediately.
Obviously, she was an old rival of this Tian Jiangzi and knew his weapons very well.
Li Yi then put it into his storage Dharma instrument. He then glanced at this former Three-Flower Realm expert, clenched his palm, and a silver lightning was held in his hand, ready to send him on his way.
"Tai Yi, wait, don't kill him." Suddenly, Xuan Yuezi, carrying a high-energy sniper rifle, shouted while running. Although her state had recovered, she still had no magic power and could not fly.
By the time Xuan Yuezi ran to this place, she was already panting. She said: "Many disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect were captured by the Imperial Court. Using Tian Jiangzi might be able to exchange them back. He is a Three-Flower Realm expert of the Tianyi Sect, and the Imperial Court cannot sit idly by."
"Exchange hostages?" Li Yi nodded: "That's fine, then spare his life."
At this moment, Tian Jiangzi endured the pain of his internal organs being burned and struggled to stand up. He smiled miserably and said: "Your Heavenly Dao Sect is indeed blessed by the Dao. At the end of the road, you can produce such a Daoist prodigy. In the Age of Dharma Decline, being able to practice twelve strands of heart fire Qi is truly unprecedented."
"Tian Jiangzi, if you want to suffer less, hand over the art of overturning rivers and seas, and I can beg Tai Yi to help you remove the heart fire Qi in your body. If this heart fire Qi is not removed, it will accompany you for the rest of your life. Every day at noon, when the yang Qi is at its strongest, you will feel the pain of being burned by fire. You can't handle this kind of pain in your current state and will definitely sit down and die early." Xiang Xiangzi said with an indifferent gaze.
"Your Heavenly Dao Sect's Son of God has already learned the Daoist Instrument Sect's art of calling the wind, and you actually still covet our Tianyi Sect's art of overturning rivers and seas. Don't you know the truth that chewing too much is not good?" He coughed violently again, and a scorching breath was spat out from his lungs, making him feel particularly burning.
Xiang Xiangzi snorted heavily: "This has nothing to do with you. Hand it over or not?"
"Give up this idea. The inheritance of the Tianyi Sect will not be given to you. If you have the ability, kill this old Daoist." Tian Jiangzi had some pride and would rather die than surrender.
"Do you really think I dare not kill you?"
Xiang Xiangzi was furious, murderous intent steamed between her eyebrows, she walked forward with big strides, her black hair flying, like a female demon, wanting to start a massacre.
"Immortal Maiden, calm down, he is asking for death." Li Yi shouted immediately.
Xiang Xiangzi stopped immediately upon hearing Li Yi's voice, her temper immediately converged, and then she said softly: "Tai Yi's reminder is right. I almost made a mistake. Please don't blame me, Tai Yi."
Li Yi then asked again: "Xuan Yuezi, is the number of disciples captured by the Tianyi Sect large?"
"Only two or three of the Seven Immortal Maidens' lineage were captured, but many of the Dharma Protector lineage were captured. Among the thirty-six Dharma Protectors, several were deeply trapped and had no news. Many people of the Goddess lineage also fell into the hands of the Imperial Court, among whom the Goddess also had no news... These are what I know, and there are many I don't know." Xuan Yuezi said.
"It seems that one Three-Flower Realm expert cannot exchange for so many disciples." Li Yi said.
Xuan Yuezi sighed and said: "Save one if you can save one. Just have a clear conscience."
"Since that's the case, there's no time to delay. Let's go to the Imperial Court, so as not to have long nights and many dreams." Li Yi said: "I also want to help you settle this matter as soon as possible, because after this matter, I will leave the Imperial Court and go elsewhere."
"Tai Yi's words are reasonable. The Heavenly Dao Sect has reached this point, and it is useless to force it. After rescuing all the disciples, if Tai Yi doesn't dislike it, I am willing to follow you, stay away from the disputes of the Dao Court, and explore the Great Dao together."
Xuan Yuezi also saw through these grievances at this moment. If she continued to entangle, only more people would lose their lives.
Instead of this, it is better to put down the hatred in her heart, leave the Dao Court, and live some ordinary life. After all, the dead are already dead, and the living must continue to live. The Tianyi Sect's momentum has been established, and even if Tai Yi comes forward, it is difficult to change anything. The only good thing is to help the remaining people of the Heavenly Dao Sect choose a better result and leave some Daoist traditions, which is better than turning into ashes.
"Let's talk about this later. Go to the Imperial Court first, ride the clouds."
Li Yi performed the Daoist art, a huge auspicious cloud rose from the ground, lifted the three people and the injured Tian Jiangzi, and flew towards the direction of the Imperial Court.
The Shanyi cried, followed closely, and the thunder fighter jet hidden in the sky also started again.
This time going to the Imperial Court, Li Yi naturally had to be fully prepared.
