Inside the stone arch in front, the sound of fighting between gold and iron could be heard faintly.

While Lin Xiao slowed down, he leaned against a bookshelf and leaned closer carefully.

I quietly looked sideways and saw in the large hall connected by the arches, a man with a Chinese character face, holding a copper mace, sweeping out several qi energy, hitting and retreating.

But his opponent was an armored figure over one foot tall and covered in bronze.

The two sides were going back and forth, striking at the critical point. The statue's double swords and mace collided with sparks, and at the same time, the sound of howling wind could not be heard.

Lin Xiao in the shadow couldn't help but jump when he saw the armored figure. He didn't expect that after so many years, he would see an enemy with a similar shape in another place.

However, at that time, this armored statue formation was guarding the Wufeng Mountain Formation, but today it is the Imperial Court Immortal Arsenal of the Guyou Kingdom, so I asked.

"Dare I ask, senior, are there defensive arrays and large arrays in the Imperial Court's Immortal Arsenal?"

Bai Li from the True Essence Bead said bluntly: "Of course it does. After all, this immortal arsenal is also a confidential location of the imperial court. It cannot be taken lightly. In addition to the internal guards, there are also defensive arrays operating in it. It's just that

What..."

Lin Xiao listened to the other party's words with hesitation and couldn't help but ask: "Just what? Is there an accident?"

Just listen to Bai Liyan say: "It's just that in normal times, the defensive formations and large formations are easily moved. Now it's like this. Either the intruders used force without permission, or someone activated the defensive formations."

Lin Xiao's heart moved and he said: "Senior said the former is okay, but if it's the latter, does Mei Chengfeng still have the ability to activate the magic circle?"

Bai Li did not deny it, but just sighed loudly. "I also have this concern. After all, the Mei family was responsible for the design and construction of this immortal arsenal, and even the entire Zhongdu City."

Lin Xiao was surprised. "Mei family?"

He had known for a long time that the Mei family's handiwork was indeed at the beginning of the construction of Zhongdu City.

But I never expected that even the Imperial Palace Immortal Arsenal was designed by his family.

"It's the Mei family." Bai Li said: "The Mei family had a lot of research on formations when their homeland still existed, and therefore became the chief minister of the imperial court. When they lived on this island and built a new capital,

Of course, the Mei family will bear the brunt of this design and construction supervision position, and it is unshirkable. Who would have thought, alas..."

Listening to Bai Li's sigh, Lin Xiao also understood his unfinished meaning - who would have thought that the three families who worked together back then would one day turn against each other and face each other with swords?

All I can say is that things in the world are unpredictable and fate has its way with people.

As for why there are similar armored figures in the Wufeng Mountain formation, it is no longer so strange.

With the Mei family's ability in formations and Mei Chengfeng's own golden elixir cultivation, it is indeed not difficult to create a similar armored figure in another place.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but secretly thought, I'm afraid it's hard to get in and out of this Imperial Court Immortal Arsenal...

In the blink of an eye, his eyes fell on the man with the Chinese character face again, and he asked quietly: "Is this person familiar to you, senior?"

Bai Li replied: "I can't say we are familiar with each other, it's just a few encounters. This person's name is Gu Jianzhang, and he is the master of the Yanglinxia Dagua Sect. He is quite unique with his 'cunning mace'.

He can be regarded as a rare expert in foundation building."

"Oh? Is there such a way?" Lin Xiaoyan said.

Bai Li smiled. "You can tell by looking at this person's path. He is a martial artist with a horizontal training background. Even his body skills are out of the world of 'Flying Swallows Stepping on the Clouds'. Such a unique person, you only have to meet him once."

, I’m afraid it will be difficult to forget.”

Lin Xiao also smiled when he heard this, and then thought of Chao Da who saved his life back then, and wondered how this man was doing now.

With this thought in mind, he added: "How is this person's reputation? According to the seniors, do you want to help? The juniors think that his life is not in danger, but I am afraid that he will change over time."

Bai Li pondered for a moment, then just said: "This person doesn't have any bad reputation in the Immortal Sect, and if he turns around to find the path to the lower level, he has to go a long way, so I just give him a hand, and whether we can go with him later, it won't matter.

."

Lin Xiao knew that Bai Li's words were completely based on practical interests, so he nodded his head and said with a smile: "He doesn't have any bad comments, but there are a few who took advantage of the chaos to rush into the arsenal and were not determined to fish in troubled waters.

?In the final analysis, it is difficult to say whether he is good or evil, but he must be motivated by profit..."

Bai Li laughed. "You are right, little friend!"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xiao had already put his feet on the bookshelf, spread out his body, and the Qingqiu sword in his sleeves rang out softly, and rushed into the arch.

"My little friend, you can tell the difference between the inside and the outside." Bai Li joked.

Lin Xiao sent a message and replied: "Although this junior is not smart, he is not stupid either!"

"Hahaha..."

The reason why they say this is because neither Lin Xiao nor Bai Li has any ill intentions toward each other after being in contact with each other in the past few days.

But when meeting Gu Jianzhang who didn't know the details, at least for Lin Xiao, it was impossible for him to have any good intentions.

Even if we join hands, we are pressed for time, so we just go along for the ride.

Under this premise, the most important thing is to use the sword tactics to open the way and keep good cards.

On the other side, Gu Jianzhang, who was fighting with the armored figure, felt a figure flicker in his peripheral vision. With a shocked look on his face, before he could say anything, he heard Lin Xiao shout out.

"Wait a moment, fellow Taoist, I'll help you!"

To put it bluntly, I'm here to help you, not to take advantage of you. Don't panic. We'll talk about other things after we do it together.

Gu Jianzhang was overjoyed when he heard the visitor's open words and said hurriedly: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, it's just in time!"

Lin Xiao smiled silently, swung the Qingqiu Sword in his hand, and three sword energy flew down!

"Zhengzhengzheng——!"

There were three loud explosions, and the armored man shook off a round of sword flowers with a long sword in his right hand. The moment he caught the sword energy, a pair of eyes with blazing green light jumped up. He looked up at Lin Xiao and slashed with his backhand. The sword energy burst through the air and whizzed out.

Go!

"Zheng——!"

A knife mark was scratched on the roof of the hall. Lin Xiao turned around and suddenly flew downwards. Pointing his toes to the ground, he rushed away like a flying swallow splashing water, and instantly entered the battle circle!

The armored figure obviously didn't expect that Lin Xiao would be able to defend and attack simultaneously. He dodged a knife in an instant and rushed forward.

Immediately take a step back, throw away the two swords, one against two, withstand the offensive of Lin Xiao and Gu Jianzhang!

For a moment, in the huge round hall, the sword and mace's true energy surged, like a gust of wind and rain, without stopping. On the one hand, the copper mace passed by, making a low roar, and on the other hand, the sword light flew around, like a shadow and lightning.

Unlike Gu Jianzhang, Lin Xiao was pivoting his sword all the way, but saw only the flow of cold light, but no surge of sword energy. He was fighting with the long sword to fight faster!

Not only that, but the armor-clad figure gradually became unable to withstand the pressure and slowly retreated!

Seeing this, Gu Jianzhang's eyes flashed, and he used his true energy, and the light of his copper mace rose sharply, as if he wanted to cooperate with Lin Xiao, and crush the opponent to death with one go.

The armored figure also seemed to feel that the situation was precarious. He suddenly stepped back to give half a step of space. Taking advantage of the length of the long sword in his left hand, he flipped his wrist and swept it in front of him. At the same time, he took the long sword and the copper mace, and each one

Recruit.

The long knife in the other hand suddenly cut out a sword energy. While forcing Lin Xiao and the two back, he suddenly stepped out with a loud roar!

"Drink——!"

Amidst the explosive sound, the formation patterns on the ground suddenly lit up, and a majestic round of true energy wind ripped out wind marks and swept towards Lin Xiao and Gu Jianzhang!

At this moment, Bai Li suddenly said: "Don't retreat. If you retreat, all your previous efforts will be wasted. The outer formation cannot defend the initial stage of foundation building, and it cannot reach the middle stage with the help of the large formation. Kill the close one and chop off the center of its neck and spirit."

Stone!"

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up. "I have the order!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a round of light gray protective smoke came out without a trace, and was blown by the strong wind. It was like a raging fire in the wind, and the "flame" sternly shot backwards!

In the smoke, Lin Xiao pressed his sword with his backhand and pointed it forward. The wind was hunting around him, and he refused to retreat even if he was alive!

Gu Jianzhang next to him was pushed two feet away by Qi Jin!

The eyes of the armored figure opposite him jumped with green light, and he let out a loud "hum". The moment the strong wind dissipated, his arms crossed in front of him and he swung it violently!

"Hoo——!"

The huge force broke through the wind, and in an instant, two long knives came out of their hands, circling rapidly like two "golden wheels", looking at Lin Xiao and the two, whizzing and slashing away!

The smoke miasma dissipated, the Qingqiu Sword's edge sank, and a stream of true spirit fire flowed down from the circular hole of the sword's edge. The whole sword instantly turned red, and then lit up bit by bit!

Just listen to the sound of "dang", the moment the sword edge touches the "golden wheel", the fire shines brightly, sticks to the long knife, skillfully releases the force, and moves around the body!

Not far away, a crashing sound resounded through the hall. Gu Jianzhang held a copper mace, resisted a "Golden Wheel", vomited blood, and walked backwards!

Here, the Qingqiu Sword in Lin Xiao's hand pulled out a continuous sword light, flying up and down, and the "Long Sword Golden Wheel" that was guided to the tip of the sword kept spinning. For a moment, sparks flew and sparks scattered!

Amidst the harsh friction sound, Lin Xiao suddenly turned around, exerted force on his wrist, raised his sword, and a flash of fire shot up into the sky in front of him!

"Zheng——!"

When he looked again, the long knife was nailed into the roof, and the handle of the knife was still shaking!

The next moment, the body skills, jade talismans, and magic weapons were activated at the same time, and a figure rushed forward with a trace of fire on the sword's edge!

The armored figure casually caught the long knife that flew back from Gu Jianzhang, looked at Lin Xiao who rushed forward, and struck it down with one strike!

"Zheng——!"

A straight knife mark was carved on the floor of the hall!

The armored figure's eyes twitched, as if asking, how could it cut through the air?!

At the critical moment of Lin Xiao's attack, Lin Xiao suddenly stopped, turned around, slid across the tip of the knife, exerted force again, touched the spine of the knife with his feet, jumped forward, and flew up!
To be continued...
