Chapter 1060

This hand was fleeing wildly in the air, followed by two layers of hazy gray light. Chang Yun only glanced at it, and immediately knew the situation in his heart.

He had a high background, and these eyes had also been cultivated with special spiritual objects, coupled with extremely high-grade techniques. Even if a Great True Person performed magic changes, he still could not deceive him!

He saw at a glance that it was Minghui himself. Only then did he shake his sleeve, and a white umbrella slid down immediately, propping itself up in the air.

As soon as this umbrella opened, twelve colors of light burst out from the umbrella ribs, colliding with the gray light that seemed to have little power. They smashed together, and a loud noise came immediately. Three autumn leaves, as large as human heads, drifted down in the air, blowing gently.

From these leaves emerged three winds: cyan-gray, pitch-black, and gray-white, sweeping down from a high position, causing the earth to tremble. The pitch-black soil rushed toward the sky one after another, and a massive hurricane was born on the flat ground.

This Dharma wind had great power, and the umbrella immediately made a creaking sound that it could not bear. Chang Yun's face immediately became solemn. He clamped a talisman with two fingers, covering the heavy mist, raised his other hand, and whispered:

"Minghui!"

Minghui had indeed lost his Dharma body, leaving only one arm. He picked a pair of eyes and a mouth on his palm, and could still see the panic in his expression, crying desolately:

"True Person, save my senior brother!"

Chang Yun's expression suddenly became suspicious, and he whispered:

"Who came?"

Minghui was still terrified, only saying:

"You ask me, who can I ask? 'Do not investigate me' is added to the body. If you say it is not Yang Ruiyi, who else could it be!"

Chang Yun heard that the other party's tone was correct, and his heart lightened. He investigated carefully again, then grasped the white umbrella, joined two fingers, used the Dharma spell, and pointed at his brow.

He looked into the distance with divine ability and techniques, and found that this place was already gray, as if trapped in a ghost domain of the netherworld. Countless skeletons and ghosts were crawling on the ground, entangled with each other, accumulating into a mountain peak reaching the sky. In the sky, thousands of owls, black crows, and evil owls were circling, hazy, with only a pale white temple standing on the top of the mountain, appearing tottering.

The vigilance in Chang Yun's heart suddenly thickened. He moved his eyes abruptly and sure enough, he saw a Bronze Mysterious Nether Carriage standing at the highest point, with long bronze stairs spreading down, and blue flames burning on the bronze lamps on both sides.

"Yang Ruiyi..."

Chang Yun frowned, stood firm in this ghost domain of the netherworld with the white umbrella, and the strangeness in his heart had reached its peak.

He originally thought that Yang Ruiyi used the entire strength of the Great Song to kill toward the north and used Wangyue Lake to drag Lord Lord Guangchan down, just to go deep alone and divide the west and east. But until this moment, Yang Ruiyi's true self was still here!

You must know that whether it was Minghui or Chang Yun, reaching an agreement was all considering that Yang Ruiyi would lead people to attack this place, and Minghui's senior and junior brothers would be defeated like a mountain, and he would receive them to save their lives... rather than holding on until now waiting for reinforcements!

This meant that whether it was Li Ximing or Tinglan, the full-force strike of these people had not been able to trade Yang Ruiyi a chance to go deep into the north... and they had only traveled halfway through Jiangbei.

By the time the many True Persons in the north gathered, Yang Ruiyi, who was already far inferior in power, would inevitably return without success, and might even cause the south to suffer heavy damage to its vitality!

"Could it be that Yang Ruiyi is trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice..."

He immediately moved his gaze to the top of the mountain. There was no human figure in the bright temple, and the ground was full of monks' bones and scattered golden clothes. A monk sat upright on the mountain of corpses, his face pale, still stubbornly chanting scriptures.

"It is Mingxiang."

Chang Yun was on good terms with the Lotus Temple and of course knew this new rising star of the Lotus Temple in recent years. In that great battle on the lake, this person did not use his full strength, but according to Chang Yun's estimation, this person's strength was only below Lord Lord Guangchan and Zhelu!

But even if Chang Yun overestimated his strength again, he felt suspicious at this moment, terrified and shocked:

"There must be a trick! It is not Yang Ruiyi inside!"

The 'Degrading Qi' in Yang Ruiyi's hand could simply be listed as the orthodoxy that most restrained the Buddhism. This 'Degrading Qi' spirit treasure suppressed down, enough to make any Buddhism cultivator who was not Moha-level completely cut off the connection with the Buddhism Earth, unable to borrow half a point of power. He, Mingxiang, was not Jin Lian, and it was absolutely impossible to hold on until now without any damage!

The pitch-black evil energy in the sky was infinitely thick. Chang Yun turned his head abruptly and found that the road he came from was disappearing little by little. He did not lift his legs immediately, but revealed a thoughtful look.

"True Person Chang Yun!"

The shock and suspicion on Chang Yun's face had disappeared. He lowered his head thoughtfully, but saw that the hand in his sleeve suddenly froze, red light rose in the two ghostly eyes, shining into his eyes!

"You!"

This True Person's body froze instantly. A hesitation flashed in his mind, and the hand pinching the talisman in his sleeve finally let go. He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes tightly, and operated his divine ability!

"Ssh!"

Even though Chang Yun was a cultivator in the middle stage of the Purple Mansion with an extremely strong Dharma body, he could not withstand being shone upon like this without defense. The two silver-bright eyeballs shattered with a boom, and two streams of golden blood slid down the corners of his eyes. He had already lost a pair of eyes!

He groaned and decisively raised his hand high, hitting the severed hand with one sleeve. For a time, the golden light shattered, the black color collapsed, and the sound of miserable screams echoed in all directions. The chance for Chang Yun to leave this place disappeared abruptly, and he angrily scolded without any politeness:

"Actually using the technique of change to deceive me!"

The gloomy yin energy in the sky, six talismans flew out one by one from the tightly closed bronze door, scattering countless ghosts in the sky, and suppressed toward Chang Yun together.

The white light in the temple became dimmer, but because of Chang Yun's sharing, it gained a few more chances to breathe. Mingxiang sat cross-legged in front of the temple, palms together, his face full of piety.

Minghui's severed limb was shattered by Chang Yun's palm, but he had no grief, instead his face was calm, and he sneered in his heart:

"Junior brother, it seems he has also realized it!"

Following his sneer, a small piece of golden nasal bone was revealed from his chest clothing, vibrating and transmitting Minghui's heart thoughts with the divine wonder of magic power:

"Chang Yun is very smart, he already knows that it is not Yang Ruiyi in this territory, but we don't just hate Qi Lanyan. Chang Yun was forcibly summoned by him, what good impression can he have of him! He is even less willing to offend the south. He quickly abandoned a pair of Dharma eyes and retreated from the front line, and he has a reason for not recognizing Yang Ruiyi!"

Chang Yun's Dharma eyes were powerful. The thing that fell into his arms just now was indeed not some technique of change, but Minghui's own means, just secretly colluding to clear his responsibility!

"Now that I have destroyed my Dharma body to resist the south, Master also has a reason to protect us. Once the Degrading Qi is closed, no one knows what happened inside. Can they push this responsibility onto our heads?"

His voice added a bit of coldness, and he laughed fiercely:

"Let Dayang Mountain and Qi Lanyan return empty-handed! Let Yang Ruiyi give them a hard blow!"

"You people of Dayang Mountain, do you think my senior and junior brothers are made of mud? If my senior and junior brothers are really like dogs and horses for you to drive... then my Shanle Dao does not need to be listed as the Seven Phases!"

Mysterious View.

The brilliance in the distance kept shaking, red and painful to the eyes. The Dharma lamp in front of the platform flickered, appearing gloomy and cold. The young man above wore a white gauze long crown and a black-cloud-patterned Daoist robe, staring intently at the chessboard on the platform.

It was precisely Qi Lanyan who was stirring up Jiangbei!

And the teenager playing against him wore blue clothes, his eyes agile, with a small water sparrow standing on his shoulder, looking at him with a smile, saying:

"Shanjie is in chaos, yet Qi-my lord is so steady."

Qi Lanyan picked up a chess piece and said softly:

"Shanjie has Gongsun Bei and Murong Yan, there is no problem in the short term. Yang Ruiyi has not appeared yet, you and I cannot move lightly."

He tapped the case and raised his eyebrows:

"I am curious, the Daoist Immortal faces the wilderness directly, and Daoist Bai was invited to come, aren't you afraid?"

Ye Huai laughed, with no worry between his brows, only saying:

"I trust the adult."

Ye Huai was originally a selfish person. The only thing he worried about were the few children of his sister, whom he had arranged to go overseas long ago. Even if others died a thousand times or ten thousand times, he didn't care at all. These words were naturally flattery, and Qi Lanyan didn't believe it either, saying indifferently:

"Jiangbei generally has three veins. The west is the small chamber and the two mountains of Tangdao behind Bai Jiangxi; the middle is Chengshui and Douxian... and the east is the Mysterious behind Shanjie..."

"Which route does Daoist think Yang Ruiyi will attack?"

Ye Huai picked up a chess piece, looked at the trend on the board, and said softly:

"What the Great Song wants is not to break through which family or sect, but the situation of this world. From the land of Yue to controlling the Huai, and then to having the momentum of the Chu State... and now although the territory is large, there is a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh in the land of Yue. If it is not removed, Yang Ruiyi will not be able to sleep or eat."

He dropped the piece and whispered:

"Shanjie."

If there was one thing the Zhixuan Xie did that made the Yang family most disgusted, it was undoubtedly inserting this nail of Shanjie in the south. Once Shanjie County was lost, even if the Great Song conquered the Shu land, the Song Emperor would still have the reputation of losing the old land of the hometown!

"Not so."

Qi Lanyan nodded and smiled, saying:

"They must take Shanjie, but they don't have the strength to attack it strongly. They should have planned it slowly, but Yang Ruiyi has one point that is inferior to me—he has a Song Emperor above his head. Once he wants to attack, he must achieve results."

Ye Huai's expression was heavy, his eyes narrowed slightly:

"The adult's news is well-informed."

He couldn't figure out how Qi Lanyan was sure of the relationship between Yang Ruiyi and the Song Emperor, so he could only treat it as coming from the forces behind him. Qi Lanyan said softly:

"Since he can't take Shanjie, he can only enter from the middle, cut off Douxian in the middle, and cut off the connection between the Mysterious and the Zhao State. One is to echo the Western Shu attacking the west on the other side, and the other... is also to give the Song Emperor an explanation."

Ye Huai was so intelligent, he nodded and said:

"So the adult designed it, specifically giving up Douxian."

Qi Lanyan smiled:

"It doesn't count... there is still a place where you are useful."

So he flipped his sleeve, saw the jade talisman in his hand faintly emitting brilliance, and smiled:

"Below Chengyun, beside Douxian, there is a Fanyun Cave. Several Daoists including Chang Yun and Mingxiang have lost contact and are trapped in it. It must be that Yang Ruiyi has arrived. Please ask Daoist to call Shang Chang and others, go to Shanjie first, take action to deal with Liu Bai, and it is best to take Yufu County further!"

Ye Huai stood up immediately and praised, thoughtfully saying:

"The adult is really a divine plan... but that spirit treasure is powerful. We went to the east, Yang Ruiyi doesn't know who he brought, just relying on Chang Yun and Mingxiang is not easy to block him..."

Qi Lanyan smiled coldly:

"I arranged for Daoist Lord Lord Guangchan to arrive nearby early. With him, he should be able to temporarily drag Yang Ruiyi down. Now the people of Dayuan Guangyin Mountain have all gone over."

Ye Huai praised his brilliance repeatedly, bowed and saluted, and then set off. He was noncommittal in his heart:

"Lord Lord Guangchan will go over? Fart!"

Lord Lord Guangchan absolutely could not let go of the fat meat of Wangyue Lake and not bite it. That meant this person should still be on the lake. Qi Lanyan mentioned it on purpose, originally just to punish him. As for how the people who were surrounded died, it had nothing to do with him.

"Since he can make Chang Yun and Mingxiang fall into it silently, it is undoubtedly Yang Ruiyi... Since this person's whereabouts have been revealed, why is Qi Lanyan still sitting here, why not take the opportunity to go south?"

Ye Huai was respectful on the surface, but extremely strange in his heart. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Qi Lanyan, saying:

"Qi-my lord..."

Qi Lanyan shook his head and smiled, saying:

"I have my own place to go."

This teenager watched Ye Huai leave, and refocused on the chessboard. After a while, a man in black clothes came forward, bowed before the platform, and said respectfully:

"Master!"

Qi Lanyan didn't bring any Zhixuan Xie disciples on this trip, but this disciple who called him Master was wearing the Zhixuan Xie uniform... What was even more strange was... this person's cultivation was only Qi Refining!

"Get up."

Qi Lanyan looked at him with a smile, and saw the man stand up after bowing, saying respectfully:

"Master, now it is..."

Qi Lanyan withdrew his hand, turned to look at him, and said gloomily:

"Yang Ruiyi cannot lose more southern territory. Losing one piece, even if it is ten pieces in the north, cannot be made up. He will not leave Shanjie alone. There must be a backup there. Ye Huai and others will inevitably return without success, no need to go."

The man lowered his head and agreed:

"What Master said is very true..."

He knelt on the ground and said cautiously:

"Master... why not go to Tingzhou, Wei Nie there..."

His tone sounded very solemn, but his voice was trembling slightly, as if he had mentioned something disrespectful. Hearing the two words Tingzhou, Qi Lanyan closed his eyes, exhaled heavily, shook his head and said:

"I understand you are also anxious... but it is definitely not urgent at this moment. Li Zhouwei is very safe at the moment. If I go there alone, do I have to join forces with Lord Lord Guangchan? At that time, I will drag myself in. What's more, if you kill everyone on the lake, he may not come out, and he may not be able to be beheaded."

He appeared troubled and said:

"If I failed to remove him before his wings were full, then forced siege has no meaning. The purpose of slowing down his cultivation has been achieved, but the direction of the north-south situation cannot change..."

This teenager stood up, dropped the chess piece in his hand, and said gloomily:

"When the great chaos comes, several adults will take the field themselves, and then push the waves and help the wind from the side, only then is it possible to complete this matter. Relying on us alone, even if we borrow the power of the mountain... it is not enough to complete this matter."

The man below said:

"I'm just afraid..."

He stopped talking, but what he said made people's hearts jump. Qi Lanyan gritted his teeth and replied:

"Besides, you didn't see whether it was done or not!"

The person below was silent, and Qi Lanyan closed his eyes and said:

"No need to say more, I will go to Dayuan Guangyin Mountain."
