Chapter 337: Eternal Demonic Catastrophe Meets True Dragon
The Zhu Que Bridge was originally one of the four routes of Jiankang. There were quite a few people coming and going on weekdays, and today it was even more crowded, with many loose cultivators and ordinary people watching the fun flocking to the two banks by the bridge.
Hearing that Wang Longxiang had challenged someone again, everyone flocked to see the fun.
As for Qian Chen, he was that not-so-famous someone.
If many aristocrats knew about that shocking battle on the Dajiang outside Jiankang City, and many aristocratic children who were well-informed also knew the cause of this magic battle, it was Qian Chen who went to the door to cut off Wang Yan's hair bun.
Then the loose cultivators and Jianghu people in Jiankang City knew nothing about Qian Chen.
In the heavy building built at the bridgehead, Xie Xuan leaned against the window, watching the Zhu Que Stone Bridge blocked by the Wang family. Wang Rong, Wang Dun, and even Wang Yan of the Wang family were sitting in another elegant pavilion nearby, covering up.
In Jiankang City, the aristocrats who could be counted.
Gaoping Xi family, Yingchuan Yu family, Qiaoguo Huan family, Lanling Xiao family, Langya Zhuge family, and even the Zhu, Zhang, Gu, and Lu of Wu Commandery, and so on, were roughly the Qiao surnames sitting in the Copper Sparrow Tower built by the Xie family at the Zhu Que Bridgehead, while the Wu surnames of the Southeast sat in the scattered pavilions north of the bridge.
There were also cold-door children, and even official children in the capital, all squeezed into the corridor between the two heavy buildings.
As for the cultivators of the Dao Academy and Immortal Sect, they drove their escape light and flew several feet away, landing on the roofs and treetops on both sides of the Qinhuaihe. If it weren't for the Four Symbols Zhou Tian Formation suppressing Jiankang City, they would have mostly raised their flying escape magic treasures and watched in mid-air.
As the sunset fell, Zhong Shan was dyed like purple gold, and escape lights came from all directions in the city, landing on nearby pavilions, roofs, and treetops. Those who could drive escape lights either had at least the magic power of Penetrating Law, or the flying escape magic treasures they took out were not ordinary people.
Even if you look at Qian Chen's battle in Chang'an, killing Penetrating Law in the demonic cave was like slaughtering pigs and dogs, but in terms of it, Qian Chen was only a Penetrating Law cultivator.
In Jiankang, except for the great aristocrats like Wang and Xie in the Copper Sparrow Tower, and the aristocrats of Wu Commandery further away.
Penetrating Law realm was already considered a figure.
Li Chong took a carriage and was about to come out of the Imperial City. When passing the city gate, he saw several aristocratic children who had cast the Dao Academy's magic spells, driving magic treasures and flying towards the Qin Huaihe. He lifted the curtain of the seal magic and looked in that direction.
He said to the family general who drove the carriage: "Are these people going to watch the magic battle between Wang Longxiang and Elder Yu Chen Daoist?"
The family general pulled the dragon horse with horns on its head. Its mane danced in the wind, and it looked extraordinary at a glance. There were many rare birds and beasts in the world. The Xie family raised a group of red-crowned immortal cranes, and the children in the family rode cranes; the Wang family also had large pieces of blessed land and mountains in Langya, raising spirit beasts.
But what could really be used for large-scale war was the dragon horse produced in the Northern grassland.
Dragons are naturally lecherous, and horse herds with dragon blood often gather into huge horse herds of 100,000 or 1,000,000 on the Northern grass fields. Often flood dragons fly to find mother horses in the horse herds to cloud and rain, multiplying endlessly, and the bloodline is excellent.
And dragon horses are the most suitable spirit beasts for riding, so Northern dragon horses can almost be counted as a specialty, which is extremely rare in the South.
When Li Chong traveled, the aristocratic children in the capital often looked at these four handsome dragon horses and knew it was the envoy from the North. Moreover, the small team of knights guarding Li Chong all rode dragon-blood horses.
The tall family general held the dragon horse and looked back: "My Lord, do you want to go and watch, and see how this Southern talent compares to the talent of the North? The twenty-eight characters of the Divine Land, why did they occupy sixteen in Southern Jin..."
Li Chong sighed slightly: "Ran'er's whereabouts are unknown, I really have no mood... Go back!"
Just as the family general drove the carriage and prepared to set off, a cloud carriage caught up from behind. This cloud carriage was driven by six green deer. A hand that was well-maintained and knew it was pampered pushed away the green gauze covering the cloud carriage, scattered the cloud qi, and revealed Sima Yue's smiling face.
Sima Yue nodded slightly: "So it is the Northern Wei envoy Li Secretariat!"
Li Chong could only nod in response. Sima Yue smiled: "Is Li Secretariat also going to watch the magic battle on the Zhu Que Bridge today? Our Great Jin has many talents, the Wei envoy should take a good look, I wonder if Northern Wei has any talents comparable to them?"
The family general driving the carriage sneered: "Prince Cao also invited the young generation of Northern cultivators to fight, but he fought the Northern talents who are in the twenty-eight characters, all of whom are the best of the families and departments of this generation, and fought out the first of the same generation. It is different from you Southerners who always challenge nameless people."
He showed a sneer, obviously mocking Sima Yue as the "nameless person" defeated by Wang Longxiang.
But Sima Yue just smiled and didn't care. Now there have been several conflicts between the two countries, and Southern Jin has suffered some losses. Northerners being arrogant is not a day or two, and his response was naturally considered to have style.
On the contrary, Li Chong raised his hand to stop the family general's extreme words and smiled: "I am a bit older, and I have lost interest in these disputes of spirit, so I am preparing to return home!"
Sima Yue smiled: "Haha... I am very interested, and I am just about to invite Li Secretariat to go together, I wonder if Li Secretariat can give this face?"
Li Chong stroked his beard slightly. Since Sima Yue said so, he couldn't help but give this face. Moreover, now that the Southern Jin Emperor is seriously ill, several clan sons of the Sima family have some changes, and Sima Yue is one of the powerful candidates for the Crown Prince position.
If he could stir up trouble in it, it would count as fulfilling his responsibility as an envoy.
The two traveled by carriage. Sima Yue had already left an elegant pavilion in the Copper Sparrow Tower. At this time, he went up with Li Chong, which made the aristocrats in the building who didn't know why secretly shocked. When did Sima Yue collude with Northern Wei?
Although currying favor with the Northern Wei envoy was quite sensitive at this time, everyone had to secretly sigh that although this was a dangerous move, it was also a wonderful move. At a critical moment, if Sima Yue wanted to succeed to the throne, getting Northern Wei's support would also be crucial, but I don't know what the Emperor and the Sima family ancestor would think?
For a time, there was a lot of discussion in the elegant pavilion on the Copper Sparrow Tower.
The samsara travelers and others did not have aristocratic status, so they could only land on the roof of a residential house to watch. Yuan Hao said to Du Xiuniang beside him: "These people are surrounded so tightly. When Elder Yu Chen Daoist intercepted the river before, the momentum was huge, sweeping the whole Dajiang. We were affected even when standing dozens of miles away... If this time Wang Longxiang and Elder Yu Chen Daoist also exert their full strength."
"I'm afraid half the city will be smashed!"
Du Xiuniang laughed: "Captain, don't forget that Jiankang City has a great formation suppressing it. We want to fly out six feet high and are suppressed by the formation, let alone take action in the city?"
"The reason why the location of the magic battle was chosen here is because the formation seals on the Qin Huaihe are slightly loose, so as not to trigger the reaction of the town-city formation."
"Choosing here shows that the two are not fighting to the death, mostly stopping at the point! Just divide a victory or defeat." Du Xiuniang was a bit confident in her deduction.
Qin Chuan, who went to see Qian Chen alone that day, also stood on the roof of a high building. He was a bit bolder and stood directly on the eaves of the Copper Sparrow Tower. Of course, it was not on the heads of the Wang and Xie families. The Copper Sparrow Tower had nine layers, and he stood on the seventh layer.
Beside him, two copper sparrows were chirping, flapping their wings and arguing about something, very fiercely.
Qin Chuan moved aside, looked at the Zhu Que Bridgehead, and sneered: "That Elder Yu Chen Daoist is so arrogant, I want to see how much real ability he has?"
Downstairs and in the building, there were people discussing this magic battle. Some aristocratic children whispered and sneered: "What is the origin of this Elder Yu Chen Daoist? I haven't even heard of it, and he can actually challenge Wang Longxiang? Doesn't that mean I can too?"
The partner beside him laughed: "With your cultivation, you dare to challenge Wang Longxiang?"
"Anyway, it's all losing, why can't I go up?" The man said with reason.
"Forget it! Do you know that Elder Yu Chen Daoist hit Wang Yan's face, and people dare to humiliate even the dignity of Yin Spirit, your bit of Dao practice..."
At this time, in the Wuyi Lane south of the Zhu Que Bridge, a figure stepped on the bluestone slab and walked slowly. Wang Longxiang saw the surging crowd in front, and his figure paused slightly.
Everyone shouted: "He's here! He's here! Wang Longxiang is here!"
Wang Longxiang looked at so many people, and a trace of confusion appeared on his face. He followed a road separated by the Wang family's private soldiers and first boarded the Copper Sparrow Tower. Although there were many people there, at least it would not be exposed to the eyes of the crowd.
Looking at his slightly thin but very aesthetic posture of the Wei and Jin scholars.
Wang Dun nodded with relief and exhorted Wang Longxiang: "Longxiang, we are waiting here. I think at most an hour, you can see you return, and then you and I, uncle and nephew, will get drunk together!"
The elders of the Wang family beside him also nodded slightly, with a relieved and relaxed expression.
Only a few people's expressions were not optimistic. Wang Rong said solemnly: "Longxiang, be careful..." He opened his mouth, wanting to say that after seeing Qian Chen's footprints that night, he went back and thought about it, always feeling that he had misread some things.
But no matter what, he couldn't say it. Without the Wang family's help, Wang Longxiang would definitely lose to Qian Chen.
Wang Ningzhi and Xie Daoyun were also solemn. Xie Daoyun opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she hesitated for a moment and finally didn't say it.
She originally wanted to say that Qian Chen's formation path had a sudden progress in the last formation, and the feeling of the high distance of the Heavenly Dao might have completely surpassed her.
But then she remembered that Wang Rong went to the door to probe, and used the fatigue strategy to calculate against Elder Yu Chen Daoist. Although the Wang family elders didn't feel that they had anything wrong, they wouldn't let her take it out to say.
And this might be misunderstood as looking down on Wang Rong's vision. Wang Rong was a direct descendant of the Wang family, while she married just a mediocre junior, so she finally endured it.
The last ray of sunset disappeared below the horizon.
A full moon scattered clear brilliance. In the moonlight, someone came from upstream on a small boat. The person held a paper umbrella, the wooden oar smashed the full moon reflected in the river, and set off sparkling silver light.
Seeing the Zhu Que Bridge lying in front of him, Qian Chen pointed at the bow of the boat, borrowed the floating and sinking of the water waves, flew to the Zhu Que Bridgehead, and stood on the railing of the bridge. Wang Longxiang also flew down with sword light and stood opposite Qian Chen.
The two looked at each other and were both startled.
Both found that the other was the person who passed by on the two boats crossing on Xuanwu Lake the day before yesterday.
Although several thoughts flashed in Wang Longxiang's heart, he didn't say much. He practiced pure Daoist sword light, a clear brilliance like a pool of water light. Just looking at the sword light, it was the top three Qian Chen had ever seen, and the essence was excellent.
Wang Longxiang's sword technique was even more worthy of such sword light.
The sword light turned into a long rainbow, just one slash, making the cultivators on both banks of the Qinhuaihe have the feeling of sword light splitting their faces. Between the vertical and horizontal sword light, it pierced Qian Chen's body in a flash.
Clang!
Qian Chen's long sword came out of its sheath, the sword light turned up from the Heavenly Net Umbrella and slashed on the flying sword flying vertically in the void in front of him.
Just for a moment, Wang Longxiang's flying sword turned twelve times, and every change was exquisite to the extreme.
Between the turns of this sword light, no matter how fast the flying birds changed, even if it was the mysterious bird known as the flying swallow of flowing light, turning and changing in front of the Wang and Xie halls, making the spiritual sense of Core Formation cultivators difficult to capture its whereabouts, it could not avoid or escape.
Wang Longxiang could cut off swallow feathers in front of the hall at the age of nine without hurting the swallow!
But Qian Chen's sword was held in his hand...
Therefore, even if Wang Longxiang's sword light turned twelve times, in the void, the collision between the affectionate sword and the sword light, that bit of electric light lit up twelve times.
Wang Longxiang was a bit surprised, and Sima Yue on the building looked even more gloomy. The eight clan sons of the Sima family also had good protective magic treasures to resist Wang Longxiang's sword technique, but among the eight, as long as the magic treasure was broken, no one could survive six changes in this move.
He didn't even know that this sword light had twelve turns.
Even if he hid his strength, but let him exert his full strength, whether he could break the high-level changes of this sword technique as lightly as Qian Chen, he had no bottom in his heart. ===== CHAPTER 338 =====
