Chapter 251: Chen Niu Dharma Seal in Hand
Many maids fled outside one after another.
The yellow-clothed guards went against the current.
A yellow-clothed guard held a long spear with both hands, ran forward with big strides, and stabbed the long spear in his hand toward the back of an armored soldier.
"Pa!"
The yellow-clothed guard was not weak. Using all his strength and the momentum of running, the heavy armored soldier was pushed back several steps, and the armor on his body was naturally pierced, with half of the spearhead poking in.
But after this armored soldier stood firm, not only did he not fall, but he turned his head to stare at him, and at the same time turned around and slashed with his saber.
Another *pa* sound!
The long spear was immediately cut into two pieces.
The yellow-clothed guard was stunned for a moment, gritted his teeth, and without hesitation abandoned the long spear, drew the curved saber from his waist, and rushed toward this armored soldier.
The armored soldier also came with a saber.
The long saber and the curved saber first touched together, blooming with a bright spark, then crossed each other. The next moment, the two sides collided violently.
Immediately, only the yellow-clothed guard whose neck was cut in half flew out, the broken curved saber falling to the left and right, and the long saber in the armored soldier's hand also chipped.
Right beside the yellow-clothed guard who fell, another yellow-clothed guard was drawing a bow and shooting an arrow. Releasing his hand, the arrow flew through the battlefield with a whistle.
The next moment, another sharp arrow flew over.
A bean soldier archer already had several arrows stuck in his body, while the yellow-clothed guard who shot the arrow earlier had already fallen down with an arrow.
Not far beside him—
A female Daoist waved her long sword with one hand, and with a *dang*, split the curved saber in the hand of a yellow-clothed guard in front of her. Although the battlefield was chaotic, she listened to all directions and watched all sides. With a glance of her peripheral vision, she waved the whisk with her other hand in another direction, suddenly throwing out a streak of gale energy, and beat back another yellow-clothed guard rushing toward her with a long spear.
Before the two could rush over again, the female Daoist turned her body, as graceful as a fairy. She thought she was swinging her sword in eight directions, but it was the whisk sweeping out a semicircle.
With a *boom*, spiritual fire swung out.
It was a half-moon of red flames condensed.
Although the flames flashed and disappeared, the two yellow-clothed guards nearby also fell to the ground immediately, wailing endlessly, not knowing how they were scorched. Several yellow-clothed guards who were far away were also scared back, not only by the momentum of this half-moon flame, but also feeling a wave of rolling heat rushing toward their faces, just like boiling water, and had to retreat.
However, after retreating two steps, a blood light flashed on their necks.
The next moment, their heads and bodies fell down together.
Half a foot behind, the martial artist had just finished swinging his saber.
This martial artist was simply like a demon lord descended from heaven. Although he had no magical arts, all his abilities seemed to be born for killing. He was like a fish in water in this chaotic battlefield.
Not only could no one get close to him, but even if they didn't get close, the long saber swung out blade light.
This blade light was not as broad and powerful as the gale energy swung by the female Daoist, but it was sharp and swift. Once it touched, it was like being cut by a blade edge.
There were also flying swords shuttling through the palace, half chasing the figure fleeing with fire, and half circling at the door, blocking the yellow-clothed guards constantly rushing in from outside.
Against these people, flying swords were simply great killing weapons.
Although it was only for a short while, there were so many yellow-clothed guards in the hall, and yellow-clothed guards were constantly rushing in, but they were firmly suppressed by the three people and one fox.
Suddenly, someone shouted something, and in the battlefield, all the yellow-clothed guards lay down, and even their swords and sabers didn't care to dodge.
Those close to the wall immediately rolled to the foot of the wall, and those far from the wall also found places to hide.
At the same time, the fox also shouted.
Wood-escape technique!
Lin Jue reacted the fastest, stopped chanting, and without hesitation flashed to the side, stepping into the huge pillar of the palace.
The next moment—
Arrows were shot from the walls on all four sides of the palace, ten thousand arrows fired at once, weaving into a deadly rain of arrows.
The junior sister immediately turned into a stone statue.
Luo Seng relied entirely on his body technique, rushed behind a bean soldier, and grabbed two yellow-clothed guards to block in front of him.
*Ding ding... *
The flying swords fell to the ground, clanging, and the arrows shot over, hitting the floor and the stone statue, also clanging.
The rain of arrows lasted for three waves before stopping.
Many yellow-clothed guards relied on their familiarity and reacted faster, either climbing up from the foot of the wall or rushing in from the door, but were surprised to find—
A Daoist walked out of the pillar.
A female Daoist changed from a stone statue back to a human body.
The martial artist let go of both hands and threw away the two yellow-clothed guards stuck with arrows, and he was unscathed.
Everyone was unscathed!
The white fox was hanging upside down on the top of the head, curiously staring at them. Just the next moment, it looked at the middle-aged woman hiding in the corner of the palace, and with a little force on its four feet, it turned into a white shadow, just like a swimming fish in water, swimming from the top of the palace toward the corner.
The fox hadn't arrived, but the cold air arrived first.
The middle-aged woman turned into a gale and wanted to escape, but the two Daoists turned around and chanted at the same time.
Mountain pressing down!
*Plop! *
The middle-aged woman fell to the ground and turned into a human body.
Just as she wanted to climb up, *plop*, she fell to the ground again!
"You dog woman! Knowing clearly that it is you who are doing evil, you still came to ask us about the mystery of breaking the method of gathering beasts and adjusting birds. Deceiving your grandfather me is one thing, but you actually insulted us so much?"
This was the last sentence the middle-aged woman heard.
There was a chill on her body, like the north wind blowing on the top of Tianshan Mountain, piercing to the bone, and then there was a burning pain, the pain of burning the heart and tearing the skin. However, the pain didn't last long, the blade light flashed, the world turned upside down, and then she was comfortable.
A few yellow-clothed guards outside the door saw this, not only not afraid, but all their eyes were bloodshot and extremely sad and angry.
However, there were only a few of them left.
Without the three of them taking action, the bean soldier heroes easily solved them.
The whole battle ended in just a short while. The middle-aged woman was caught off guard and almost didn't have time to do anything except escape before losing her life.
Lin Jue and the junior sister were incomparably tacit—
One walked to pick up the mountain spirit's wooden staff.
The other saw that the middle-aged woman had died and her spirit had scattered, turning into dust and disappearing, and a dress and a few things fell from her body, so she walked over to look for them and picked up a few things.
"This place is not suitable to stay long!" Luo Seng said, sheathing his saber.
"Hmm!" Lin Jue nodded in agreement, took back the bean soldiers and flying swords, and looked at the junior sister, "Did the junior sister find the dharma talisman or dharma seal of Chen Niu?"
"Found a dharma seal, don't know if it is."
"Let me see."
Lin Jue took a seal from the junior sister's hand. It was indeed the dharma seal of the Chen Niu talisman, so he nodded.
"With this, it's good!"
"Go!"
The three people and one fox left the hall.
They found their horses, and a colorful civet cat emerged from the horse's back, staring straight at them.
The three of them mounted their horses and went down the mountain.
There were still many believers in the front mountain, and they had heard the movement on the top of the back mountain before, not knowing what had happened. At this time, seeing the three of them going down the mountain with bloodstains, they were all puzzled.
The three people and one fox rode past, galloping without stopping.
They kept running along the road at the foot of the mountain until they ran out of this mountain and onto the official road, only then feeling a bit relaxed.
Unknowingly, it was twilight again.
The three of them stopped to rest by the roadside.
"Is the junior sister injured?"
Lin Jue saw the bloodstains on the junior sister's left sleeve, and the Daoist robe there was also torn.
"It's okay, just accidentally grazed by an arrow."
"I will stop the bleeding."
"Already stopped the bleeding."
"Then bandage it."
Lin Jue tore off a strip of cloth, walked to her side, wrapped it around her, tied a knot, just like she did to him in Pear Village of Dangshan.
After wrapping it, he checked it, and only then felt relieved.
Immediately, he took out the small bottle and released many remnant souls and obsessions.
Under the twilight light, everyone was covered in bloodstains. Those remnant souls that were originally fierce were unusually quiet, even a bit dull.
"Living up to expectations, those yellow-clothed guards and the evil god they worshiped have been eliminated by us. If you heroes are stubborn and unwilling to leave because your blood feud has not been reported, you can rest in peace now." Lin Jue said to them, bowing, "If you are stubborn and unwilling to leave because you were buried in a foreign land and exposed to the wilderness, there is no need to worry. Just wait for us to send your corpses and bones back."
As he spoke, he paused, looked at the crowd, his tone frank, his heart and mouth consistent:
"If you have a grudge against yaoguai and evil spirits and are willing to eliminate yaoguai and demons, this Daoist happens to lack some heroes to help, so you can follow this Daoist to eliminate yaoguai and demons together. Evil gods will also be eliminated. Whenever you find that this Daoist is deceiving you, or find that this Daoist's original intention is different from now, you can leave."
Some remnant souls looked at him to confirm and slowly disappeared, while others looked at him for a long time and flew back into the bottle.
The junior sister covered the bottle stopper and handed it to Lin Jue.
Lin Jue tucked it back into his bosom.
Just then, the fox suddenly turned its head to look into the distance.
Then not long after, the group also felt the slight trembling of the earth and heard the faint roar.
Everyone mounted their horses and looked up.
Only to see the grassland was boundless, the setting sun was half a wheel at the end of the sky, the sunset glow was brilliant, but there were black dots on the ground, approaching them.
"Cavalry!"
Luo Seng's gaze was solemn, looking straight at that side, and said:
"Light cavalry, at least three hundred."
Lin Jue and the junior sister also became solemn.
Listening, it was only three hundred cavalry, but looking at it, it was a continuous line of black dots. They didn't stay as close as Lin Jue imagined, but kept a certain distance. When they galloped over, a small mountain slope was occupied by them. Rushing over like this, reflecting the clouds and glow in the sky, it had a kind of inexplicable shock.
Lin Jue frowned for a moment.
If these cavalry didn't take bows and arrows, the three of them would admit they had some ability to resist, and even boldly say that the outcome was unknown.
If they took bows and arrows, the terrain here was open, which was undoubtedly more favorable to them.
If they fought, whether it was fire spiritual law or gale, it definitely didn't have the range of bows and arrows. They were so scattered that it would take countless times of spitting fire and blowing wind to eliminate them all. If they dodged, whether it was wood-escape or stone-forming method, facing so many cavalry and bows and arrows was just delaying the date of death, and many other magical arts couldn't be used.
If hit by random arrows, there was still only a dead end.
After all, they hadn't truly attained the Dao yet, and were still flesh and blood.
This was also the reason why many high-level Daoist experts had extremely high abilities but couldn't resist the imperial court's army.
Luo Seng was the same.
On the contrary, bean soldiers, stone-gathering generals, and flying swords had better effects in this situation, but they were also limited.
The two looked at each other and chanted spells one after another.
Then there was a rumbling sound on the ground, many stones broke out of the ground and rolled together, gradually gathering into two stone giants over a zhang tall.
"Mountain God, please block the pursuers for us!"
The three of them said so, not stopping at all, and rode away.
The stone giants swung their arms and strode toward the cavalry. The scene looked quite fantastic, but just when the two sides were about to collide, the cavalry split into two sides, directly bypassing the clumsy stone giants, and still rushed toward the three people, with momentum like a rainbow. ===== CHAPTER 252 =====
