Chapter 192 The six elders of the Peng family, a scuffle outside the city (4k)
In the evening, the sky is getting dark.
The Peng family's mansion still has the same hall with many white strips hanging on it. Zhao Qing, Duanmu Shuliang, and Zheng Dan just approached from the bluestone road outside the hall.
Duanmu Shuliang glanced at Zhao Qing who was following him, and couldn't help but feel secretly surprised.
After only a few hours, her temperament and appearance seemed to have changed significantly. She felt cool and warm at the same time, and she was a bit more beautiful than she had been in the morning.
Could this be the result of her taking the risk to go out of the city to practice martial arts last night? But why did it take a while for changes to occur? In any case, this is always a good thing.
"Is the convoy leaving the city tomorrow?" Zhao Qing asked while combing through the ninth level of Mingyu Gong that had just broken through, looking into the hall.
I saw that in addition to Peng Zhi, the governor of the city, there were six impressive old men sitting inside. They were obviously the six elders of the clan whom the Peng family came to help.
Sitting at the top of the table were two tall, stern old men with weathered and wrinkled faces. One had a crimson dagger hanging on his chest; the other held a bronze spear about one foot or two feet in his hand, exuding
Exudes a compelling breath.
The two old men with similar faces and aquiline noses each had a bronze sword on their sides. They were probably brothers. The other old man was as tall as an iron tower, with tangled muscles and a giant bronze shield leaning on his back.
, although he is sitting in the right position, he is a head taller than others.
The last old man looked a little skinny and didn't carry any weapons, but what was striking was that his palms were a bit larger than ordinary people, and they were a forest-white color.
Zhao Qing recognized from a distance that the white surface of the old man's palms was actually a layer of proliferated bone, covering the skin, as if he was wearing a pair of special armors.
The aura of the six old men was not hidden at all, and they breathed out extremely hot breaths, revealing their superb attainments in fire-attribute martial arts.
The temperature in the hall is maintained at a high level, as if there are six large burning stoves in the hall.
Based on their outward aura and the exploration of the seventh consciousness, Zhao Qing can be sure that these six people should not be at the bottom of Gangjin.
Especially the two leaders among them, if they don't use the "Cheng Yu Xing Tian Jue", they may not be sure of winning the battle.
In the third level of Gang Jin, the old man holding a spear should have reached the second level of "concentrating the mind to refine the soul, nourishing the mind and casting the soul". He has refined the unstoppable spear intention into the depths of the Gang Qi field around him, making it inseparable.<
/p>
At this level, attacks from weaker enemies that fall on his aura field are almost like meeting a sharp spear, and will be easily torn apart and disintegrated.
However, compared to this, it was the other old man with the dagger hanging on his chest that made Zhao Qing even more afraid.
If her prediction was correct, the reason why this person used a dagger as a weapon may be that he had mastered the art of flying swords. Using the fire energy to control the sword, the attack must be extremely fierce and extremely powerful.
Moreover, in Zhao Qing's observation, this person is always in a state of spiritual harmony between nature and man, and his state is undoubtedly the highest among the six.
But having said that, there are quite a lot of martial arts types of the Peng family including swords, spears, fists, shields, and swords. They are worthy of being a branch of the Zhu Rong clan and have been passed down for a long time.
I don’t know if the martial arts of these people coordinate well with each other?
Also, the Fire Aperture Pill of the Peng clan can speed up the refining of the Jin Xing Qi. Is there any way to get some more?
Zhao Qing thought secretly in his heart and asked Duanmu Shuliang and Zheng Dan: "How about letting the caravan rest for one night and set off early tomorrow morning?"
She could see that the six elders of the Peng family deliberately showed off their momentum and seemed not to be very friendly to her and Duanmu Shuliang.
Maybe he feels that his and Duanmu Shuliang's martial arts are too low and they will become a liability in the battle?
"Leave the city tomorrow?" Hearing Zhao Qing's inquiry, the old man holding a spear stood up suddenly, his eyes swept across Zhao Qing and Duanmu Shuliang like lightning. They stayed on Zheng Dan for a while, obviously attracted by her.
I was deeply surprised.
He shook his head and said: "The six of us have already arrived, and the secret guards of Wu State have nothing to worry about.
It’s better to set off in the middle of the night. Brother Duanmu, my great-nephew Peng Chu offended you before, please don’t take offense.”
"It's nothing to worry about?" Duanmu Shuliang was a little surprised. Are the Peng family really so sure?
According to the old man, he is Peng Zhi's great-uncle or great-uncle. He is estimated to be over a hundred years old. Even though he has reached the realm of Gang Jin, he has not yet reached the level of God around the body, and his qi and blood circulation will not be as good as before.
When I was young.
Once you compete with young masters of the same level, the gap in endurance is quite obvious.
Can these six old men who are over a hundred years old really withstand the fierce battle that follows?
But if you think about it carefully, you will find that the elderly are often the most afraid of death, especially the clan elders who are pampered and privileged in their clan.
Thinking about it, they should have seen the destroyed street. If they were not confident enough, they would not dare to put down such words and fight with the secret guards of the Wu Kingdom who specialize in killing.
"Midnight is midnight. As long as Miss Zheng Dan successfully survives this disaster, I will definitely ask Dr. Fan for credit for your Peng family." Duanmu Shuliang clasped his fists and said sincerely, agreeing to the old man's request. p>
Zheng Dan knew that her regular combat power was far inferior to others, and her knowledge was also quite insufficient, so she left the decision-making power to her trusted Duanmu Shuliang early.
Since Duanmu Shuliang agreed, there will be no changes to the plan.
"Okay!" The old man nodded and said, "In an hour and a half, we will meet in the north of the city."
……
On the way back, Duanmu Shuliang seemed to have figured out something, and suddenly sighed: "Unexpectedly, the rumor about the Peng family is actually true. It seems that it will be safe to leave the city later." p>
Zheng Dan asked curiously: "Uncle Duanmu, what is this rumor?"
Duanmu Shuliang explained to her: "It is rumored that more than forty years ago, someone from the Peng family had an unexpected encounter and obtained a volume of Qi Refining Method and elixirs for getting started. The old man with the dagger hanging on his back was probably a practitioner of Qi Refining.
The art of Qi and the art of flying swords."

"Under the infusion of divine energy, the sword can fly away from the body, fly hundreds of feet in an instant, and take people's heads; it can change in a thousand ways, like using the fingers of an arm..." Zheng Dan recited the relevant legends he heard in the market in the past, with a pair of beautiful eyes as bright as the bright moon, and his tone
With a bit of envy.
There is no doubt that Royal Flying Sword has great appeal to people no matter what age it is.
"How to refine Qi?" Zhao Qing was also a little surprised and couldn't help but ask.
Before the Six Qi Realm, the practice in the main world was basically divided into two paths: the Strength Method and the Qi Refining Method. Among them, for some unknown reason, the popularity of the Strength Method was far higher than that of the Qi Refining Method.
During this period of time, apart from herself and Zhu Ji Wu Ci, she had never seen a third person taking the path of qi refining. She never expected that she would meet one today.
Being able to practice a Qi refining method that is comparable to or even higher than the second level of Gang Jin, may be more advanced than your own Ming Yu Gong.
When fighting later, you can observe carefully to see the general situation of this person's skills and whether there is anything we can learn from his flying sword technique.
In Zhao Qing's view, the methods of refining qi in the world are ever-changing and of many types, but the road is as simple as it is easy, and it always leads to the same goal through different paths.
Although Peng's fire-based skills are likely to be somewhat different from the internal skills of the ancient world of Jin and are difficult to transfer, they can also be learned by analogy.
"Those who practice Qi refining can practice related spells, and their methods are far superior to those of Qi training masters at the same level. Miss Zhao Qing, your talent is so high, I believe it won't take many years for you to be able to use similar flying techniques.
The art of sword."
Duanmu Shuliang sighed sincerely. He knew that Zhao Qing also followed the path of Qi refining, but unfortunately his cultivation was not high and he was still far away from the old man, so he specially encouraged him.
……
An hour and a half later, the north gate of the city.
Twelve carriages lined up in a row and drove slowly outside the city gate.
Zhao Qing and Zheng Dan were sitting in the same carriage, looking out vigilantly to detect changes in the surrounding environment.
Duanmu Shuliang and Peng Zhi rode at the front of the motorcade, and six elders of the Peng clan were hiding in the carriages in front and behind the two women.
Inside the carriage, calm down and wait for the enemy.
Since he was not sure that he could protect Rui Xi, who was injured in the battle and had no martial arts skills, Zhao Qing thought about it and decided to let her and Yuan Gong wait in the city until the secret guards of the Wu Kingdom were eliminated.
After the traffic is clear, return to the city and head to Kuaiji City with her.
When making a plan to lure the enemy, Zhao Qing heard the six elders of the Peng family reveal their general martial arts skills to cooperate with others in the battle.
According to the introduction of the old man holding the spear, except for his eldest brother Peng Li, who practiced Qi refining alone, the remaining five people practiced martial arts, which was called "Fire Elements and Five Hells". Each of the five practiced one strength.
Can form a powerful formation.
If the five powers are combined into one and cultivated by one person, it is expected to reach the advanced realm of the six qi and become a great master that shocks the whole party.
The reason why the old man with the spear has a higher level of strength than others is not because of his superior talent.
But more than 80 years ago, he participated in a large-scale battle launched by King Yunchang of Yue against Wu. He accidentally obtained a rare treasure of heaven and earth, and was lucky enough to use a skill called "Transformation Art".
The secret method has been cultivated to the first level.
It was also at this time that Zhao Qing learned that the two men headed by the six elders of the Peng family were over 120 years old, and the remaining four were around a hundred years old.
And if you don’t have a special physique and haven’t taken life-extending drugs, Gang Jin’s lifespan is generally around 160 or 70 years old.
It is worth noting that when the old man holding the spear mentioned that he had mastered the "Transformation Technique", he sounded quite proud.
"Transformation Technique"? Could it be that this is actually a secret technique that can change the original talent and qualifications and make people transcend the world? Zhao Qing was surprised and wanted to ask for more information.
However, the group of people had not known each other for a long time, and the old man with the spear still regarded himself as a burden, so it was not easy to take the initiative to ask.
……
More than ten miles have passed, and the secret guards of the Wu Kingdom have not taken action. Everyone can't help but feel a little irritated and impatient.
Under the moonlight late at night, a village in the distance slowly emerged.
A few miles away, there is a hill with a radius of about a hundred feet, and a stream with crystal clear water flows down. Under the moonlight, the silver waves flash, flowing towards the northwest, and it is estimated that it will flow into the Ruoye River for more than a hundred miles.
.
There are hundreds of quaint houses at the foot of the mountain, scattered in an orderly manner among the lush green forests beside the stream. They are surrounded by mountains and rivers, with small bridges crossing the stream. Even at night, they still give people a sense of comfort.
But as the convoy got closer and closer to the village, Zhao Qing had a vague premonition of danger, as if a murderous intention was gradually approaching.
Is it the special perception of the seventh consciousness? It is a bit like the effect of "the most sincere way can predict".
She secretly thought in her mind that unlike after returning, which still takes time to recover her mental power, her development of seventh consciousness has been progressing and improving.
Pressing the hilt of the sword, Zhao Qing silently established the connection between the sword energy and ensured that the "Cheng Yu Xing Tian Jue" could be used at any time. Zhao Qing waited silently for the attack.
At this moment, a dark cloud happened to pass by, covering up the bright moon in the sky, and the heaven and earth became a little darker.
The next moment, a powerful murderous aura rushed over like a surging air current, sweeping up the entire convoy.
Twenty-four strong horses were so frightened that they stopped and trembled feebly.
Duanmu Shuliang and Peng Ju hurriedly jumped off their horses and fled to the side. Because they were well prepared, they immediately escaped six or seven feet away.
In the distance, there was still a green spiral sword energy, which suddenly appeared from the firewood pile at the entrance of the village more than 30 feet away, and came towards the front of the motorcade at an extremely fast speed, as if it was about to overwhelm the twelve carriages lined up.
Turn into powder and dust like last time.
The sword energy was divided into two, two into four, and four into eight. In an instant, it turned into a huge mass of Gangfeng Qi that was overwhelming and was about to smash everything in its path.
But this time, the sword energy emitted by Wu's secret guard seemed to have met its match.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
I saw the top of the second carriage exploded, and a tall, cold old man with silver hair and white beard jumped into the air, and a bronze spear two feet tall turned into a spiritual creature in his hand.
The sky is filled with red light and shadow.
Countless red lights, centered on the tip of the spear, turned into scorching fire snakes, shooting forward like a torrential rain, blocking the front of the cyan gas mass.
Huge explosions rang out intensively and shook a ten-mile radius. Strong air currents collided with each other in the air. The aftermath shattered the first carriage into pieces and sputtered out deep holes on the surrounding ground.
A large, charred pit several feet deep.
Waves of surging air blew the old man's clothes flying backwards, making a hunting sound.
It seems that the strength of both sides cannot be distinguished for a while.
But Zhao Qing, who was in the sixth carriage, could clearly see that this move of the Wu Kingdom's secret guard was only 60% as powerful as the last sword, and it was most likely a test.
Even so, the old man with the spear could only fight to a draw with a long-range attack from the enemy thirty feet away.
Therefore, the enemy's strength may exceed the expectations of the six elders of the Peng family. After testing the convoy's escort strength, the opponent should try to use close combat to carry out the purpose of attacking and killing.
After all, just as this person is afraid of Zheng Dan's magic weapon, the standard Bian Zhu sword of the Wu Kingdom's secret guards also has obvious advantages in close combat against Gang Jin, who is of ordinary origin.
Sure enough, in the next moment, a light green figure jumped out from the firewood pile, shaking like a ghost, creating numerous phantoms. With an extremely exquisite body technique, it evaded the old man coming from above, as if it was like a ghost.
Along the Yangtze River, the powerful spear attack circled to the side, rushed straight to the middle of the convoy, and suddenly jumped up.
The old man gave a cold shout, and the spear shadows all over the sky disappeared instantly, and suddenly turned into a spear, stabbing the green shadow in the air.
