"Do not misunderstand."
Yang Ji smiled slightly, took out the captain's walking token in his arms and flashed it. Seeing this token, the expressions of the seven heavy armored cavalry changed slightly, and their expressions immediately became more respectful:
"It turns out to be an adult."
The first level of official rank is overwhelming. Although Yang Ji Duwei's walking badge is not a formal appointment, in terms of official position, it is much greater than these heavy armored cavalry.
"Who among you is the leader?"
Yang Ji asked.
"Down below."
A tall, heavy-armored cavalryman with a long appearance rode out in response.
"Let me ask you, where are the people in the city?" Yang Ji asked.
"My lord, we have withdrawn from Pingchuan City in accordance with Lord Wang Tai's order. The army is escorted by the army and should have arrived safely now."
"What about the City Lord?"
"Also removed."
"There is Captain Wang Xian in Pingchuan City, do you know him?"
"Do you know us adults?"
The seven heavy armored cavalry looked surprised and all raised their heads.
"you?"
Yang Ji was startled. He glanced at the seven people and found that he didn't recognize anyone. He had seen all of Wang Xian's subordinates during the Tianyin Sect's battle, and there were no such people.
"Hey, why did I forget? Wang Xian lost troops in the battle. These people should be his newly added troops."
Yang Ji shook his head in his mind and came to his senses.
"Where are you now, Mr. Wang?"
Yang Ji asked.
"I met him at Dilong Restaurant before, but now I don't know where he is."
The seven people shook their heads. The city of Pingchuan was now in chaos. It was impossible to know who was where for a while. Even a few of them got separated from Wang Xian during the battle.
"knew."
Yang Ji waved his hand, with some disappointment in his eyes. After waving away the seven people, Yang Ji hesitated for a moment and decided not to see Wang Xian and the others until the matter here was over.
"The battle is almost over. The imperial court's floating fleet is here. Basically there is no big problem. As long as the sealing formation is completed, things here should be over."
Yang Ji thought of the powerful beings behind the Skeleton Ghost King. The imperial court's floating fleet had appeared. This was the power that truly belonged to the imperial court.
No matter how huge and courageous the mysterious forces that dug time and space passages, opened up the underworld, and caused disasters were, they would never dare to confront the Han Dynasty, which was able to confer gods through martial arts and canonize gods.
Although the floating fleet is powerful, it is only the tip of the iceberg and insignificant compared to the martial arts and the conferring of gods and the Han Dynasty court's background that can canonize gods.
This incident also made Yang Ji deeply understand that it is impossible for any force in this world to confront the imperial court head-on.
"Now there's only one last thing left."
Yang Ji's body swayed, and he walked eastward along the streets and alleys, and finally passed through the city gate. In front of him were clusters of green mountains, towering into the clouds. But what Yang Ji paid attention to was not here at all. At the end of the field of vision, deep in the sky,
A gray gloom rose into the sky, almost as big as Pingchuan City.
"Yang Xuanlan, the evil prince, do you think you can hide your affairs from me?"
Yang Ji looked at the place where the gray air was rising, and sneered in his heart.
Yang Xuanlan summoned the Huangya fleet from Taiyuanzhou Mansion and handed over the control of the fleet to Wang Tai. After the arrangements were made, he disappeared without a trace.
Others don't know where Yang Xuanlan is, but Yang Ji knows where he is.
"Buzz!"
There was a flash of dark light. Yang Ji pulled out of the boat, flicked it to the ground, then sank into the ground and flew quickly towards the place where the gray gloom was rising.
When Yang Ji came out of the space-time vortex, he had already seen this gray area. Others didn't know what was going on, but Yang Ji knew it.
——The essence and blood of Asura. Something that the evil prince had been planning for a long time. It was suppressed in that gray area.
The Skeleton Ghost King borrowed the hands of the Evil Prince to build an altar for himself to protect himself. The Evil Prince used the Skeleton Ghost King's plan to induce the death and evil energy of the underworld to break the ancient formation that originally suppressed Asura.
Now, the Yin Qi is gathering. The evil prince finally succeeds!
Nearly a hundred miles passed by in a flash, and less than half an hour later, Yang Ji finally arrived at the place where the gray fog appeared outside Pingchuan City.
"This is it!"
Yang Ji raised his head from the ground and muttered to himself.
In front of us is a vast expanse of hills, with gray fog billowing into the sky. If you didn't know better, it would be easy to mistake this place for the Ten Thousand Tombs Ridge.
But unlike Ten Thousand Tombs Ridge, this area shrouded in gray fog is far less vast, but it feels more dangerous.
From the mist, Yang Ji felt an extremely mysterious and ancient aura. In front of this ancient aura, every warrior who came close would unconsciously feel an oppressive force.
That is the awe that every weak person will unconsciously feel when encountering an unfathomable strong person.
"This aura...should be Asura."
Yang Ji sniffed the air, his eyes thoughtful. Having experienced the underworld once, Yang Ji was now very familiar with the smell in the air. In the air, Yang Ji felt the familiar smell of the underworld.
This is not a single breath of death, evil or darkness, but the smell that brings the entire underworld. It is definitely not something that evil ghosts, yakshas, ​​and rakshasas can emit.
In fact, in this area shrouded in gray fog, Yang Ji could not hear the howls of any evil ghosts, yakshas, ​​or rakshasas. It was completely quiet, and all the underworld creatures seemed to stay away from this area in unison.
What to be in awe of.
Looking at the entire Langya County, there is only the great Asura who was suppressed ten years ago.
"His!"
Yang Ji took a deep breath. If the great Asura who was concealed by the court ten years ago was suppressed here, then it would be no surprise that the Asura essence and blood that the evil prince had worked so hard to seek would probably be here.
The Great Asura is a quasi-sage, capable of collapsing mountains and destroying the earth. He has infinite power. He is a terrifying existence that surpasses the peak of the Martial Lord and is infinitely close to the Martial Saint.
A drop of blood essence of a great Asura is the essence of Asura. No matter what kind of warrior gets it, his strength will skyrocket, his skill will be greatly improved, and his potential to become a supreme martial saint in the future will be enhanced.
The evil prince tried his best to sneak into the martial arts examination and collude with the Skeleton Ghost King all for this drop of Asura's essence and blood.
This is a powerful temptation that no one can resist, the evil prince is like this, Yang Xuanlan is like this, Yang Ji... is also like this!
"There is still the aura of Asura in the air. They must not have obtained that drop of essence and blood yet. Treasures in the world can only be obtained by ability. Yang Xuanlan left the imperial army aside. The evil prince borrowed the Yin Qi of the Skeleton Ghost King to sacrifice his life for it...,
Each of these two people wants this drop of Asura's essence and blood, and at the same time, neither of them wants the other to get it. And this is where my opportunity lies."
"The key now is, I don't know where they have gone these days."
…
Yang Ji looked ahead, thoughts rising and falling in his mind. The great Asura was not defeated, but was suppressed by an extremely powerful ancient formation.
It must be very difficult to seize Asura's essence and blood from this ancient formation. Presumably, this is the reason why the two of them failed to succeed after entering the formation for so long.
"The Great Asura is trapped by the formation. Therefore, the drop of essence and blood must be at the core of the formation. If you want to obtain Asura's essence and blood, you must first find the entrance to the formation."
Yang Ji's eyes flashed with light. After pondering for a moment, Yang Ji made a whoosh sound and suddenly drove the boat and dived underground.
The ground boat can sneak underground when it encounters soil or water. Yang Ji's first idea was to use the characteristics of the ground boat to bypass the formation and sneak in directly from the ground. This is the easiest way.
Whizzing!
The soil on both sides was like light and shadow flowing backwards. In just a moment, Yang Ji reached the edge of the underground gray fog zone. Yang Ji did not rush in rashly. Instead, he approached little by little tentatively.
"I wonder if there are any restrictions underground?"
There was silence all around, but Yang Ji felt a little uneasy in his heart. He was no longer a fledgling now. He had been exposed to various formations and knew that these formations had different effects:
There are formations that can penetrate two time and space, there are also formations that can close the space-time energy channel, there are formations that can attract Yin Qi. There are formations that can seal the entire area, and there are formations that can trap people as powerful as Asura.
Law……
These formations have different effects, but the same thing is that they generally have huge energy. They have more or less defensive energy.
If you rush in rashly, you will often face an unpredictable fate.
There was deathly silence underground. The whole world was pitch black, and it was so empty that only Yang Ji was left. However, the imaginary scene of the restriction erupting and the earth falling apart did not happen.
To be continued...
