Chapter 332(1/2)
At the end of the 236th year of the Jialuo Empire, two major events occurred in the empire that shocked the entire country.
The first major event occurred in the southernmost part of the empire. The Shenwei Army stationed in Shugu Town was invaded by local armed forces. This coincided with the direct pressure from the Southern Territory Army, causing the Shenwei Army to be attacked from both sides. After a stalemate for several days with no results, they abandoned Shugu Town.
, raised troops and retreated towards the north, completely breaking away from the territory of Dinghai Province. During the retreat, they divided into six military forces and retreated in different directions. They used Yangxi Town in Binhlan Province as a support point. They suffered numerous casualties on the way. When counting the soldiers, they found that nearly half of them were dead or injured.
, the effective strength is no longer enough to launch a counterattack, and Mao Xiaofeng, who has been inspiring the military morale, is nowhere to be found, and his life or death is unknown.
It is reported that the force that caused the Shenwei Army to be invaded in the early stage and unable to retreat smoothly was the Guanhai Sect. It is not ruled out whether it is related to Guanhai Village, which had frequently robbed officials and merchants in the past. Such an unexpected appearance of tens of thousands of spiritual warrior groups has caused a stir.
Aware of the fear of the senior leaders of the Shenwei Army, the Shenwei Army immediately believed that the Southern Territory Legion had further cooperation with the Guanhai Sect. Inferring the sinister intentions of the Southern Territory Army, they immediately ordered eight scouts to come from the land and air.
Carry the secret message and rush to Yongyao Capital to ensure the delivery of the secret message.
However, the remnants of the Divine Power Army did not know that none of the eight scouts were spared, and they were all intercepted and killed by the believers of Guanhai Sect. At this moment, the senior leaders of the Divine Power Army were still in the dark, and did not know that all the scouts had been annihilated. If they continued to be trapped here,
The flat plain area has no convenient terrain, so there is not much time left for the Shenwei Army stationed in Yangxi Town.
The second major event occurred in the northern border of the empire. Unfortunately, the fifth prince Luo Yu accidentally fell off a cliff during the expedition. The entire army searched the mountains to find his traces but to no avail. The snow-capped mountains were stretched and the weather was bad. Thousands of soldiers searched the entire mountains without success.
Unable to find his body, General Wang Chengliang of Zhenbei could only write a letter of condemnation and send his soldiers back to Yongyao Capital. Emperor Luochen was furious and sent four upright admonishers to the north to jointly investigate the situation in the north.
Regarding this matter, we must find out the main person responsible for Luo Yu's fall from the cliff and escort him back to the capital to implicate the nine tribes and serve as a warning to others.
I thought that Wang Chengliang would choose a scapegoat and let the matter go. Unexpectedly, he killed the three admonishers together, cut off their heads, and ordered the admonishers to return to Yongyao Capital with the three heads, and declared that the Northern Territory would be self-reliant and would no longer exist.
It came under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Court of the Garo Empire and achieved regional autonomy. From then on, the empire did not need to send troops for reinforcements, and it no longer had anything to do with the empire.
After hearing that Wang Chengliang supported his troops and established himself as a lord in the north, Emperor Luochen directly issued an edict to mobilize the entire Jialuo Empire's army to attack Wang's thieves. Wang Chengliang and his army were bound to be completely annihilated. Countless civil servants came forward and declared that they would join the Luo Empire.
The brutal murder of Yu is enough to show Wang Chengliang's ambition. Zhao Zhao must be wiped out as soon as possible to make the empire's territory intact. Otherwise, people's hearts will fluctuate and uprisings may occur in various places, which will be greatly detrimental to the rule of the imperial court.
At this point, the northern and southern territories of the empire are not under the control of the empire. The empire is divided. Subtle changes have taken place in the imperial court and the provinces. There have been two major city lords confronting the imperial court. The empire has completely fallen into turmoil. The provinces have begun to expand their armaments and win over each other.
Powerful spiritual warriors lure them with benefits to prepare for a war that may break out at any time.
Rumor has it that Emperor Luochen was so angry that he fainted and did not wake up for two days and one night. He sat on the edge of the bed with one hand on his knees and one hand on his left chest, which was where his heart was. He was breathing quickly, with a gloomy face.
However, these are all news to Qiao Bang, because he is being held by Hu Sigui, and he has no intention of taking advantage of the situation. He is concentrating on gathering his spiritual power and trying to piece together his spiritual power coat.
The closer you get to the place where the signal is calling for help, the richer the evil spirit becomes, the more terrifying it becomes. The originally invisible material evil energy becomes more distinguishable. You can clearly feel the turbid gas lingering in the mountains and forests. You must know that it is already past noon.
, but the mountains were shrouded in thick fog, which was obviously extremely abnormal.
Before today, Qiao Bang would definitely be afraid of evil spirits and try his best to prevent them. After all, two spider-like spiritual insects were invaded by evil spirits before. Zhou Long, the envoy of Wanfamen Mirror Master, killed the Gravedigger Rock Spider and the Trap Bone Spider.
The experience was still fresh in his mind. After all, it happened a few months ago. It allowed him to witness Zhou Long's proficiency in operating his own contracted soldier spirit. He also witnessed with his own eyes how even weak spirit insects were invaded by evil spirits.
It can still become extremely powerful.
Ni Rui is an insect master, and Shu Yuhan is contracted to the spirit plant. Such a strange combination is a couple who will stay together until old age, which also makes Qiao Bang refresh his understanding.
Whether they are spiritual insects or spiritual plants, they can be easily destroyed and crushed by spiritual warriors at will. It seems that God is inherently unequal, so that humans have spiritual knots, and it seems to be a matter of course to absorb other creatures.
To achieve the dominant position of the entire continent, I don't know if God shows mercy to the weak human race, or if it chooses the most intelligent being among all living beings.
Even so, the greed of human spiritual warriors is still destroying the ecology, and the once active spiritual beasts, spiritual insects, and spiritual plants have begun to gradually wither. Although the college teachers have taught students countless times to treat living beings with enough respect and humility,
The original intention of this kind of education is that if the spirit warrior is arrogant and does not know how to respect, even the creature with a successful contract will choose to self-destruct because of the humiliation. The cost of this is not only the loss of combat power, but also the loss of one's spirit knot.
Collapse, so far I have not heard of any method by which a spiritual warrior can restore a collapsed spiritual knot.
Whether it is spiritual insects or spiritual plants, they have all been burned by humans, flooded with water, struck by lightning, and blown by wind. The continuous strength of human spiritual warriors is based on trampling on living creatures and trying to destroy them, even if they are weak.
A young child can crush a spiritual insect crawling on the ground or an inconspicuous spiritual grass on the roadside with just a lift of his foot.
However, spiritual insects and spiritual plants have never been defeated!
With the rapid development of human spirit warriors, spirit insects can still inhabit various ecological environments and can still flutter their wings in the sky. Spiritual plants are also working hard to grow. Most of them cannot spit at people.
In other words, they do not have enough wisdom and time to grow, but they are united enough and can feel pain, but they are the most tolerant beings in nature to other living beings.
The entire Jialuo Empire advocates contracted spirit beasts. This is because the spiritual beasts bring a significant increase to human spiritual warriors. Moreover, the Jialuo Empire has rugged mountains and rivers, complex terrain, and is different from north to south and east to west. There are many types of spirit beasts to choose from.
There is more room.
Even if they do not choose a spirit beast, spirit warriors will follow the customs of the Loulan Dynasty and contract with spirit beasts. Nobles from aristocratic families with sufficient financial strength will also choose artificial spirit suits with more controllable contracts to arm themselves.
In this way, Ni Rui and Shu Yuhan appear to be so different, completely different from the path taken by the spiritual warriors of the Jialuo Empire.
"Concentrate! Don't let the spiritual power coat collapse!" Hu Sigui's voice suddenly sounded. This time he did not use spiritual power to transmit sound, and relied entirely on roaring for output.
"Yes!" Qiao Bang rubbed the back of his hand, his mind no longer wandering randomly, and he mobilized his whole body's spiritual power to piece together his spiritual power coat.
I don’t know whether the hard work during this period has paid off or whether I have gained experience by mistake. The original spiritual power coat does float on the surface of the body, but it is not very solid. Since I have not yet broken through to the spiritual master realm,
The spiritual power in the spiritual veins in the body is still in a gaseous state, so the spiritual power coat is also in a gaseous state. It is unstable, secondly, and the most important thing is that it cannot be completely connected. It looks complete, but in fact it is formed by one spiritual power after another.
The cross-sections float on the surface of the body and interlock with each other. It is inevitable that there will be various gaps that cannot cover the body.
But now it's different. Qiao Bang feels that the spiritual power coats are beginning to blend with each other, and the gaps that once appeared are gradually being filled by the overflowing spiritual energy. Although it still looks uneven, some places are thick and some are thin, but Qiao Bang has already
I am very satisfied. I have achieved this result after practicing for more than three months. The hardships involved cannot be explained to outsiders.
"All your persistence now has meaning. Don't give up. It will be of great benefit to your future cultivation." Hu Sigui said earnestly and thoughtfully. Every word seemed to fall on Qiao Bang's heart, but Qiao Bang knew clearly that this was a call to action.
Mental power strengthened the emotional catharsis, but he did not resent it. Having such a strong spiritual saint realm supervising him was a valuable experience that many spiritual warriors had never had.
Qiao Bang had clearly felt that he was getting closer and closer to the place where the evil spirit was gushing out, not only because of the formation of Hu Sigui holding him and swooping down the valley, but also because of the most intuitive effect of evil energy on spiritual warriors.
All spiritual warriors are filled with spiritual energy. Although the spiritual energy of heaven and earth enters the spiritual veins through breathing and spiritual knots, the body is also subtly infiltrated by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Therefore, spiritual warriors are usually more ordinary than those who cannot practice.
It is not a problem for people to live forty to fifty years longer. This is the benefit of cultivating spiritual power. When spiritual warriors come into contact with evil spirits, they will feel that their bodies are instinctively resisting evil spirits, and there will be resistance and resistance throughout the body and mind.
The emotions of the spirit beasts contracted in the spirit knot are more obvious. It is an attitude of never compromising and communicating. The first thought is to escape from the spirit knot and run away. If the spirit warriors did not communicate repeatedly, it would even be worse.
The spiritual knot needs to be suppressed and blocked to completely suppress the reaction of the spiritual beast.
Qiao Bang only felt that Hu Sigui's spiritual power coat was like a vast river and sea, adhering to the surface of the body and flowing endlessly. He could not tell what kind of spiritual power was used as the main force, or it was a mixture of multiple spiritual powers.
.Look at the coat of spiritual power accumulated on my body. It is as thin as silk and is of no use at all. Its effect in resisting evil spirits is even less effective.
Qiao Bang also truly realized the power of the evil spirit. His eyes gradually turned red, and the evil spirit brushed against his face, making his eyes extremely sour, with tears welling up in his eyes.
Looking at Qiao Bang with his head drooping in his arms, Hu Sigui secretly agreed, but he did not intend to strengthen the spiritual power coat. Instead, he made the spiritual power coat even thinner than before, to test whether what Shu Yuhan said was true.
Qiao Bang felt that the evil spirit was wandering around in his body like a cold air. He knew that something bad was going on. Needless to say, in this situation, the evil spirit must have invaded his body, but he didn't expect that he would be tricked so easily.
This evil spirit is rich and pure, with no tendency to feel any elemental attributes, but it is extremely good at invading it. It seems to have penetrated into my body when my eyes shed tears.
Waves of coldness made Qiao Bang tremble unconsciously, like electric current passing through all parts of his body. He had suffered too much in practice. Qiao Bang found that every time he encountered a new situation, he would feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
If you relax even a little bit, you will feel fragile, struggling and falling apart under the waves of attacks.
Hu Sigui naturally felt Qiao Bang's shaking and stopped moving forward. Although he knew that the teachers of the college were fighting in front of him and he should help, Qiao Bang was not in the right state. If he rashly joined the fight, he would cause trouble.
It would be best to stop here and observe the changes in Qiao Bang. What's more, there are Hu Songtao and Hu Jiameng among the people participating in the battle. He is not very worried. If he cannot be defeated, Hu Jiameng will use space magic to move everyone away. This is why Hu Sigui is so calm now.
s reason.
When he landed, he carefully placed Qiao Bang on the ground. He looked around to confirm that there were no other spiritual beasts around. He turned around and glanced at Qiao Bang, only to see that he couldn't stop smacking his lips. He seemed to have something to say, but he was as thin as a mosquito.
I can't hear the tone, it seems like I'm talking but it's not in Garo language.
Soon Hu Sigui realized something was wrong, and the smile on his face froze slightly. After Qiao Bang fell into a rapid trembling state, he activated the beast suction method to force all the spiritual energy out of his body. He didn't make any resistance at all, and just vented it out.
The spiritual power is a little too exaggerated. If you continue to activate it, you will soon fall into fainting due to the lack of spiritual power in the body.
Is it possible that Qiao Bang has his own ideas?
For a moment, Hu Sigui was at a loss. He didn't know whether to use his spiritual power to let Qiao Bang absorb the spiritual power again or to stretch out his own spiritual power coat to block Qiao Bang's evil spirit so that he could feel better.
While thinking, Hu Sigui had already paced back and forth twice, but he felt that Qiao Bang stopped rejecting the spiritual energy and began to absorb it. However, instead of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, he was sucking in the evil energy.
After hesitating for a moment, Hu Sigui decided not to act rashly, and carefully released the pressure of spiritual power to scare away the spiritual beasts and insects around him that had not completely eroded his mind. He watched Qiao Bang's movements with bright eyes, if anything unexpected happened,
He will take action as soon as possible to expel the evil spirit from Qiao Bang's body.
Hu Sigui's anxious observation expression could not be seen by Qiao Bang, because after absorbing the fierce and overbearing evil spirit, he swept away the bone-chilling coldness that started earlier, and the spiritual veins in his body suddenly contracted, making Qiao Bang feel weak and difficult to regulate, and his limbs were weak.
There was still spiritual power left in his pulse, and he had a direct confrontation with the evil spirit that invaded his body, making Qiao Bang feel extremely uncomfortable.
It's a pity that Hu Sigui couldn't see Qiao Bang's bravery, and thought that Qiao Bang could handle such a surging evil spirit. At this moment, Qiao Bang felt his chest was tight, as if someone had hit him hard in the chest, and his luck suddenly felt a little bad.
, his heart was beating violently, and obviously the blood supply could not match the speed of the evil energy flowing through his body. The waves of dizziness made him extremely uncomfortable, and he wanted to spit out a mouthful of blood, and his body shook unconsciously.
Hu Sigui was really frightened when he saw this. He hurriedly came behind Qiao Bang and sat down cross-legged. He stabilized Qiao Bang's figure with his two big hands and put his index and middle fingers together. He gathered spiritual power and poured it into the Jianliu point. The soft spiritual power passed through the Jianliao.
The eleven acupoints of Jianzhen, Jianqian, Zhenhui, Jianyi, Jugu, Bingfeng, Quyuan, Tianzong, Jianzhen, Qipin slowly flow, and then return to Jiankui acupoint to continue to complete the cycle, and the cycle begins again and again.
He never stopped and kept Qiao Bang's heart and lungs from being invaded by evil spirits. Hu Sigui used this to observe the trend of evil spirits and take advantage of them.
Qiao Bang only felt a coolness in his chest. It was different from the coldness of the evil spirit. It was a completely transparent feeling. The two energies collided with each other, treating Qiao Bang's body as a battlefield, and his spiritual power followed Qiao Bang's existing spiritual veins.
Slowly pouring in, but the evil spirit did not give up. It collided repeatedly in Qiao Bang's body. During the impact, many veins were born for no reason. They went straight up to the heart veins through the Lingfu, and after encountering the spiritual power, they ran rampant below the shoulders and armpits, passing through
The arms flowed to the fingertips, and then the heart pulses circulated. After encountering the spiritual power, they changed the direction and rushed towards the lower abdomen. They were not affected by the obstruction of the spiritual power. They treated Qiao Bang's body as a mine and mined it at will without any hindrance.
In this way, Qiao Bang felt that his body was warm for a while, as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and as if he was being burned by the sun. All kinds of complex experiences appeared repeatedly in just a few seconds, completely toying with Qiao Bang's emotions.
broken.
In order to make himself feel better, Qiao Bang stretched out his limbs and assumed a posture with his heart in the sky. If Hu Sigui hadn't been supporting him from behind, Qiao Bang would have wanted to lie down on the ground. He was really tired.
"It's strange, why is this spiritual vein so twisted..." Hu Sigui didn't know what was going on, feeling the direction of the spiritual power, and fell into deep thought.
In his perception, the spiritual power he poured into Qiao Bang's body has been driving away the evil energy, but it seems that Qiao Bang has no intention of expelling the evil energy from his body. He turned sideways and looked down and saw Qiao Bang grinning and gritting his teeth to persist, and he felt heartbroken.
Unable to stop guessing and doubting.
At this moment, Qiao Bang could no longer control the energy flowing through the spiritual veins in his body. With Hu Sigui protecting his heart and lungs, Qiao Bang felt that the Ling Mansion had become the hardest hit area. Spiritual energy and evil spirits would always be encountered in the Ling Mansion. There was a farce going on all the time as you chased after me.
