Chapter 180: Concealment False Thorn does not declare war
In the Jietian Passage, the atmosphere of the final battle was much different than usual.
In the center of the dim and dim world, for some reason, there was a large green umbrella.
The shape of this umbrella cover is very huge, barely less than a hundred feet in diameter. But this umbrella is now suspended in the sky more than a hundred miles high. Clear light is flooding from the umbrella and covering the earth, and the space it covers is much larger than the umbrella body.
A hundred times that. At a glance, it is about seventy or eighty miles in length and breadth.
This umbrella is called "Youming Umbrella". It was originally a rare treasure belonging to Taoist Master Jie of Qiongshimen and Taoist Master Yi of Qiongshimen, the four great masters of the Yin Sect. Its original function was to cast the final magic weapon of a large formation, which was used to control
The ever-changing array of energy.
Now that this umbrella appears alone here, it is a wonderful use of it. It allows the scene in the small world to be moved outside and can be seen at a glance. It even spreads to the seventy-seven sects through the power of the earth's veins.
.
This is the final battle that determines the Yin Sect's grand strategy. Almost every Yin Sect leader, Tianxuan Shangzhen, is looking forward to it seriously and watching the development of the situation.
With such ostentation, whether it is the Zhaoying Stone or the Tianluo Stone, it is a bit "afterthought" and can no longer meet the real needs of the Tianxuan Sects.
In other words, a battle at the Nascent Soul Realm is about to take place under the watchful eyes of at least a hundred Heavenly Profound Realm masters. This is something that has never happened before in ancient times.
The "Youming Umbrella" was not brought by any one of Xun Shen and Gui Wujiu, nor is it known what method Yi Daozun used to move it into the Jie Tian channel.
Gui Wujiu's Escape Light slowly descended. The moment he arrived at the center of the small world, there was also a person on the opposite side, arriving almost at the same time as him, and he took one step and settled in the center.
In the previous one or two hundred competitions, either you were earlier, or I was half an hour earlier. This was the first time such a coincidental "unexpected encounter" had happened.
As for whether it is really a "coincidence", that is unknown.
Gui Wujiu carefully looked at this opponent whom he had only vaguely seen a few times in the "Shadowing Stone".
Xun Shen has a slim figure, slightly straight cheekbones and a bluish complexion, and has a dark and sinister appearance. However, his eyes are lively and gentle, and are quite friendly. The combination of the two makes it look like
The solid ice melts for the first time and forms a cold current. Although it is not easy to approach, it will not keep people away.
Xun Shen was wearing a tight-fitting outfit inside, which was similar to Gui Wujiu's outfit. But outside he was wearing a white long-sleeved robe, which suddenly curtailed his tight and sharp edges. This kind of clothing with good elasticity and tightness.
, vaguely echoing and unified with his appearance.
In this much-anticipated encounter, the two of them didn't get too excited, and there was no cautious and testing process.
Xun Shen's voice came loudly, as if he was an old friend of Gui Wujia for many years: "From the overall situation of the Yin Sect, Gui Daoyou's victory seems to be the general trend; but from Xun Shen's personal standpoint, he had to go all out.
"
"To others, since Gui Daoyou's victory is so popular with everyone, it would be somewhat psychological pressure to fight against this will to coerce confusion. But in Xun's eyes, this is not the case. Instead, he regards it as an interesting thing.
things."
"After all, in this world, every time something is unexpected and breaks the rules is a surprise that can be encountered but cannot be expected."
Gui Wujiu said calmly: "If we can't defeat fellow Taoist, then the original promises are all empty talk. Of course, fellow Taoist Xun doesn't need to have any psychological burden."
"Fellow Daoist Xun's current high-level argument regards the victory over Gui as a 'surprise that breaks the rules'. His confidence seems to be slightly lacking, which may not be due to his righteous thoughts in the face of the enemy."
As soon as they came into contact, the two began to exchange words. This tense atmosphere was completely different from the leisurely and leisurely atmosphere when they faced the enemy.
Because the opponents we encountered today were evenly matched, and there was no room for relaxation.
Xun Shen nodded and said happily: "It's just sincerity."
"Xun Mou's Taoist technique is known as the 'Hundred Soldiers and Seven Techniques'. The power of the divine passage method can be great or small, far or near, visible or hidden, shaking mountains and rivers, or carrying particles of dust, totaling hundreds of
There are so many kinds. But when facing an enemy in battle, the only thing that can be used is to choose the good among them and take seven methods."
"To take seven out of a hundred, this does not mean that you underestimate your opponent; it means that if the seven carefully selected methods cannot work, the other ninety-three magical powers will also be of no use."
"Xun has been planning for several months which seven methods should be used to deal with Gui Dao friends. It was not until midnight last night that he finally made the plan. I hope he will not disappoint Gui Dao friends."
The two landed separately in the center of the small circle, two or three miles apart. With each other talking to each other, the two strode towards each other quickly.
But the moment Xun Shen uttered his last words, Gui Wujiu unexpectedly stopped.
Gui Wujiu's eyes shot out with a bright light, and he said faintly: "With the white blade attached to the body, ghosts and gods are unpredictable. If this is the first of the seven methods of Taoist friends, then at least this magical power has not disappointed Gui Wujiu."
Xun Shen suddenly raised his head, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Gui Wujiu rolled up his sleeves, and traces of sparks burst out, turning into a rich green air that filled the surrounding area, squeezing every inch of space around him. After a few breaths, two or three ash points suddenly shattered and drifted away in the wind.
Shenyuan Soul Talisman.
Gui Wujiu sacrificed this talisman, naturally it was not for fighting.
But he saw that the space around him was indeed soaked in ink. Only the upper left, upper right, lower left, lower right in front of him and the upper left, upper right, lower left, and lower right of the eight positions directly behind him had a crack as thick as an arm.
Colored smoke cannot pass through.
Among them, there is a crack in the upper left corner in front of him, and there is a three-foot-long dagger hidden in it. The entire body is as gray as pig iron and does not reveal the slightest edge. However, this sword can bear the heavy responsibility of concealed stabbing, so how can it be less powerful?
Already.
At this moment, the tip of the dagger was pointing far away at Gui Wujiu's chest, only two or three feet away.
If Gui Wu had not stopped in time, he only had to take two more steps forward. With the sharp blade on his body, the possibility of avoiding it was extremely slim.
A smile flashed across Xun Shen's lips and he said: "This move is designed to have unintended effects. I think fellow Taoist Lai Gui will not blame Xun for fighting without declaring it."
Xun Shen's tone was erratic and tactful, seeming to be both lost and relieved.
Gui Wujiu said calmly: "I have heard for a long time that Taoist friend Xun was praised as the 'Immortal of Soldiers'. Surprise and the art of war are commonplace. This is nothing."
At this time, the mind and energy of Guo Guo suddenly rise to the extreme, holding the spirit in silence, understanding the heaven and earth, being harmonious, and clearly observing the end of every detail.
Xun Shen happily said: "Xun Mou's Dao Nian family is about to be discussed with fellow Daoist Gui. Don't worry, fellow Daoist Gui, Xun Shen will only use this unexpected method once. If he wants to use each of the following moves,
It must be fair and aboveboard, no different from the usual encounters with fellow Taoists at the Quan Tao Society."
Although Xun Shen's words were extremely sincere, he was unmoved by the fact that he was not to blame. He only smiled slightly, and his determination became stronger and his spirit became stronger. He only went to the transcendental state that jumped out of the chessboard when he fought with "Yuan Yuan" that day.
go!
Xun Shen's face changed slightly, and then he pretended that nothing happened and began to talk unhurriedly.
Gui Wujia knew Xun Shen's intentions very well.
Under the watchful eyes of all the Tianxuan sects and being the pillars of the Hidden Sect, Xun Shen naturally would not use verbal deception to win. Therefore, what he said, "Every move he makes in the future must be fair and aboveboard" should be credible.
of.
However, the intention behind these words was not to sincerely comfort me. Rather, it was to secretly attack Gui Wujiu's confidence. It alluded to the first step he had just taken. Although Gui Wujiu had not succeeded, he was already frightened. Only then did he raise his aura to its peak.
.If Gui Wujiu loses his temper again after hearing this, then he is leading the way and Xun Shen has taken the psychological advantage.
Xun Shen didn't know that the ultimate state "above perfection" was something he could not comprehend. I was the main one who was to blame. Entering this state was not because of the lingering fear after nearly being assassinated, but because it was necessary to use our strengths in this battle.
avoidance process.
If you don't climb into this extreme realm of Taoism, you won't be able to defeat a powerful enemy.
However, Xun Shen seemed to be completely relaxed, as if the two of them were really studying Taoism, and he introduced the wonderful meaning of his first method to Gui Wujiu.
The first magical power that Xun Shen used unexpectedly was called "Hidden Mirror".
Throughout the ages, the most powerful illusions and supernatural powers have all focused on the whole scale, changing emotions and scenes, and inverting all phenomena in the world, making the practitioner seem to be in a dream, which is no different from reality, and it is difficult to escape.
Xun Shen's philosophy is self-proclaimed: "The yin and yang wheel rotates on a thread, and the world is turned upside down half a day ago."
To win or lose a game of chess, winning a hundred pieces is a win, and winning half a piece is also a win. Therefore, there is no need to pursue knocking down the opponent in one go, but to use clever means to get one piece ahead.
As for the remaining "power" and "profit", you can generously give it to the other party first. If you seek perfection, you will destroy it. How can you win step by step? As long as you seize the first opportunity in the changing yin and yang, then the final victory will be irreversible. What you have given up before
The benefits of crossing will definitely be recovered in full.
This is where the power of the "hidden mirror" lies.
As a superb illusion magic power passed down from ancient times by the Gantang Sect, it was passed into the hands of Xun Shen. He did not indulge in the full use of it, but tried to create a complete and flawless illusion space that could capture people's hearts.
On the contrary, most of the entire space is still real, and even if the opponent conducts divine exploration, he cannot find any mistakes.
All of Xun Shen's energy was spent on creating a narrow space of eight angles for refining, which was like a crack in the space. The eyes could not see, the ears could not hear, and the spiritual consciousness could not penetrate.
Just imagine. The opponent's spirit needs to detect the entire space that permeates the body; but Xun Shen's energy only needs to operate eight limited "points". The difficulty is different for both sides. Even though the enemy's spirit is as sharp as mine,
There is also a huge possibility of being overlooked and missed.
To use a popular metaphor, people who are good at lying in the ordinary world also know how to weave a flawless story based on facts, one falsehood and nine truths.
What's even more impressive is that as the two of them gradually get closer, Xun Shen's conversational tone is neither slow nor urgent, and his eloquent talk is actually a means to divert Gui Wujiu's attention.
This is the aid of mental skills to supernatural powers.
The regrettable thing about "Hidden Mirror" is that all of Xun Shen's magic power must be used to operate the eight illusion rifts. Within the illusion rift, there is another magical power that is beyond the reach of human beings. Therefore, to truly defeat the enemy, you must rely on magic weapons.
foreign objects.
They suddenly met, if not for the reminder of the little blacksmith's weapon spirit, who told Gui Wujiu that there was a rare treasure that was good at hiding, Gui Wujiu would not have seen through Xun Shen's "hidden mirror" magical power. In purely Taoist terms, Xun Shen was
Shen had the upper hand. This was the first time since Gui Wujiu entered Taoism.
This man is well versed in the art of war, both virtual and real, and is well-suited for the title of "Soldier Immortal" and "Great Onmyoji".
Gui Wujiu was full of fighting spirit. Among the local immortal civilization, Xun Shen was the first true master Gui Wujiu encountered.
