Volume Two: The Wind Rises and Spiritual Clouds Chapter 170 Ambushes
After dinner, Lin Dongjiu and Su Ruxue spent the night practicing together to consolidate their cultivation. Unknowingly, the next day had arrived.
After breakfast, he went to the sect's main peak and asked Su Bei about the situation of the store.
Su Bei told him that Elder Fang Lei took people to clean up the shop yesterday. If you want to open the shop, you can go and ask.
So Lin Dongjiu took Su Ruxue and called He Qing, planning to go to Blackwater City to have a look.
As for why He Qing was called, we have to talk about the pie he painted for He Qing.
He had promised He Qing that if he could open a Dan Pavilion in the future, he would let him be the shopkeeper, but he didn't expect that he would have to redeem his promise so soon.
But this guy is just a free laborer. When the business opens, let him settle the accounts and move things here and there. Lin Dongjiu is also happy to see it.
Several people walked outside the sect, and Lin Dongjiu took out the Feiyun Boat and prepared to leave for Blackwater City.
However, the moment Su Ruxue and He Qing boarded the ship, Lin Dongjiu felt the hair on his back bunch up, and his whole body was enveloped by a murderous intent.
He subconsciously raised his arms to block his chest. Before he could examine the source and location of the murderous intention, a stream of light flashed past his eyes and hit him hard.
Lin Dongjiu groaned, his cuffs had been blown to pieces, and drops of blood were left along the palms of his hands.
He frowned, a golden brilliance burst out from his pupils, and his eyes suddenly glanced behind the stone pillar next to the mountain gate.
At the same time, I was secretly surprised that someone actually dared to attack and kill him at the gate of Luoxia Sect. How brave he was!
"Whoosh!"
Another stream of light rushed out from behind the stone pillar and struck Lin Dongjiu in an instant.
Lin Dongjiu snorted coldly. Just now, he was unprepared and allowed the opponent to succeed. Now that he has even locked the opponent's position, how can the enemy's attack be effective again!
With a big move of his hand, a layer of spiritual energy shield suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking out the flowing light.
Click!
The spiritual shield suddenly cracked. He Qing heard the movement and got out:
"Brother, what's going on?"
Lin Dongjiu frowned and shouted to He Qing: "Go in quickly and protect the eldest lady!"
He Qing keenly realized that something was wrong and hesitated for a moment, but when he thought that the eldest lady was still there, he slammed the cabin door shut.
Without any worries, Lin Dongjiu's face turned ferocious, he raised his sword to Qingtian, and swung a bloody red light towards the stone pillar that filled the sky.
Suddenly, overwhelming black dots flew out from behind the stone pillar. These black dots were connected to each other, like a big net that was latched down. They collided with the countless bloody red lights waved by Lin Dongjiu, making a crackling explosion.
Lin Dongjiu suddenly slapped his palm on the ground, and a rune chain pierced the ground like an earth dragon.
And less than a foot away from his feet, a rune chain broke out of the ground. Looking closely, there was a corpse with a ferocious expression hanging on the chain.
This corpse was pierced from beginning to end by rune chains, like a skewer of meat.
"You are still young for playing around in front of me!"
Lin Dongjiu looked at Shizhu with a mocking look on his face.
The sound of fighting attracted two patrolling disciples. When they saw the bloody meat skewers on the ground, they immediately ran to help.
Lin Dongjiu's face flashed with amusement, and he shouted with the two patrolling disciples: "Don't come over here, go call someone!"
After two failed ambush attempts, he also attracted helpers, which obviously exceeded the opponent's expectations. Lin Dongjiu saw four black figures leaping out from behind the stone pillars and quickly fleeing into the distance, without any intention of fighting.
Facing this premeditated and organized ambush, Lin Dongjiu stared at the four escaping figures, without any hesitation, and quickly chased after them.
As they got farther and farther away from the Luoxia Sect, the four people seemed not to have expected that Lin Dongjiu would dare to catch up. They all slowed down and looked to see if there was any help behind Lin Dongjiu.
Lin Dongjiu was also observing them. These people were wearing black clothes and masks. He let go of his consciousness and scanned them, and saw that they had cold faces and dark skin, as if they had been exposed to the wind and sun all year round, and most of them were middle-aged.
Year appearance.
Lin Dongjiu had never met these people and did not know what their original intention was to assassinate them.
Could it be that the news that he had opened an alchemy pavilion spread and aroused the jealousy of his peers?
However, Lin Dongjiu quickly rejected this idea. Dange has not opened yet, and it has not even started to make money yet. Even the industry leader Baicao Cao cannot do this!
What's more, they dared to set up an ambush at the entrance of the Luoxia Sect. This kind of operation must be done with full confidence or by desperadoes.
Moreover, these four people have strong cultivations. Except for the one who was solved first by Lin Dongjiu, they all have the cultivation level of Yingguan Realm. The tyrannical aura released by one of them is even in the late stage of Yingguan Realm!
No matter what the reason is for them to assassinate, just kill three first and leave one for questioning!
Lin Dongjiu licked his lips, his steps quickened in vain, he picked up Qingtian and rushed forward.
Seeing Lin Dongjiu speeding up and rushing over without any help behind him, the one with the strongest aura among the four said coldly:
"Kill him!"
Then the four of them each took out their weapons and fought to kill him together.
However, just as the four of them started to move, Lin Dongjiu's figure suddenly disappeared. The man at the front was stunned for a moment, but then he shivered and subconsciously raised his elbow to protect his head.
Although his intuition was very accurate, Lin Dongjiu was like a lightning ghost. The phantom flashed behind him. Not to mention raising his elbow, even if he held a magic weapon shield in front of him, it would not work!
The man felt that he was shrouded in a black shadow, and when his pupils shrank, he saw a plate-like object getting bigger and bigger in front of his eyes.
He didn't even realize what it was. A strong wind blew by, and Lin Dongjiu swung the sky and slapped it hard on the face.
With a "click!" sound, his eye sockets, nose bridge, and cheekbones were cracked, and his entire face was sunken.
Then, Lin Dongjiu quickly swung the shovel, and the remaining three people had no time to rescue him. The head of the unlucky guy who rushed in front was exploded by Lin Dongjiu like a watermelon, and the red and white things flew out three feet high.
"Brother Huang!"
Several exclamations rang out, and these assassins were all dumbfounded. Although they had heard of Lin Dongjiu's deeds in the secret realm, seeing them was worse than seeing them. Today's fight made them realize the horror of Lin Dongjiu.
In order to ensure that the assassination was flawless, they even specially dispatched five Yingguan realm masters just to successfully take Lin Dongjiu's head. But who would have thought that Lin Dongjiu would kill two of them without even meeting them.
The key point is that Lin Dongjiu is not at the same level of cultivation as them, he is only at the foundation building level!
When they thought of this, two of them became frightened, their expressions changed, as if they wanted to retreat at any time.
"Once this matter is exposed, none of you will survive!"
Among them, the middle-aged man with the highest level of cultivation noticed that his companion was trying to quit, and he quickly shouted.
"We use our combined attack skills and don't leave him any chance to defeat them one by one!"
"yes!"
The three of them shouted in unison, and each took out a blood-edged scimitar and threw it into the air. The blood-edged scimitars immediately merged together, and a bloody evil spirit rushed out from the scimitar.
Lin Dongjiu was drowned in the sea of blood.
Lin Dongjiu's eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of red gauze mist, and he was instantly disoriented.
The bloody evil energy released by this scimitar magic weapon is very similar to the evil energy and black mist released by Bei Tian Yuan. It is just a low-level blinding method. At least for Lin Dongjiu, it has no effect at all.
He opened his Eyes of Deception, and two beams of golden light shot out from the darkness, searching for the figures of the three people.
"Overhead!"
Soon enough, he took out the azure light sword and slashed at the top of his head. A crescent-like bright white sword light broke through the sea of blood, and hit the blood-edged scimitar that was about to hit the top of his head with a "ding" sound.
"You didn't lose your sight. It's impossible!"
The middle-aged man in charge of the scimitar screamed in surprise and was knocked back several steps by the light of the sword. He stared straight at Lin Dongjiu, his heart filled with horror, and he even forgot about the severe pain coming from the tiger's mouth.
Lin Dongjiu raised a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth, and thrust the azure light sword into the ground. The majestic sword energy rushed out from the sword and spread out in all directions from his feet. The sword energy turned into crystal blue phantom butterflies.
He opened the bloody sea and revealed his heroic figure.
Lin Dongjiu opened his eyes, as if he had suddenly changed into a different person, and his aura changed drastically.
He was like a living sword god, exuding supreme majesty, without being cynical and stingy at all.
His eyes exuded unparalleled confidence, and it was this extreme confidence that created his invincible posture at this moment!
Lin Dongjiu brought the majesty of God's Mansion to the three of them in the form of divine consciousness, stimulating their emotions and provoking their state of mind.
Several people shook their bodies. For some reason, they didn't even dare to look directly into Lin Dongjiu's eyes. Their hearts were full of fear.
"This is an illusion, don't let him fool you!"
The leading middle-aged man shouted, and his expression returned to its original sternness, but with a hint of madness. His eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he urgently raised his blood-edged scimitar and slashed at Lin Dongjiu.
Lin Dongjiu shook his head slightly and said to himself that it was a pity that his consciousness attack was still a little bit less effective. It was really necessary to hone his consciousness attack during this period. Maybe it would have unexpected effects at some point...
However, although the effect was unsatisfactory, Lin Dongjiu did not want to rely on his spiritual consciousness to win. Facing this middle-aged man's offensive, the most obvious thing on his face was indifference.
The invisible sword intent lingered throughout his body, and he whispered softly:
"Open...Mountain..."
call!!
The wind howls and the clouds move, the rocks move and the sand flies!
A giant vortex of sword energy erupted with Lin Dongjiu's body as the center, instantly engulfing the charging middle-aged man.
The terrifying sword air vortex roared and exploded with huge pressure, seeming to tear apart everything that entered the vortex.
Lin Dongjiu, who was in the center of the vortex, was like a motionless mountain at the moment, and his eyes were like a flash of lightning. Seeing the right moment, he raised his blue light sword and stabbed lightly into the vortex. The whole movement was as smooth as picking up food with chopsticks.
Comfortable.
The moment the sword tip came into contact with the vortex, a cloud of blood mist suddenly exploded in the vortex, dyeing the vortex a layer of deep red.
"Crack!"
The vortex suddenly burst like a bubble, and the middle-aged man fell from the vortex to the ground, his eyes turned white and he let out a painful whimper.
His clothes were torn into pieces, and there was a very visible wound that penetrated his abdomen, and blood was flowing gurglingly.
Lin Dongjiu did not kill him. He still needed to leave a person in charge so that he could ask why he had offended them and allowed them to guard the Luoxia Sect, looking for opportunities to assassinate him.
His slight thrust of the sword had already destroyed the man's Dantian, and even if he wanted to kill him, he had no chance.
Lin Dongjiu's exposed hand completely dumbfounded the two men behind him. They froze in place, and their mentality changed drastically.
They shuddered and looked at the leader who was seriously injured on the ground and did not even dare to come forward to rescue him.
Lin Dongjiu wiped his sword lightly and focused his gaze on them.
The two people suddenly felt like they were being targeted like prey, and they panicked for a moment.
Without any communication, the two of them turned around at the same time, preparing to run away in unison.
Lin Dongjiu just watched the two of them running away without moving his feet, and took out the long bow he picked up from Bei Tianyin's demon disciple.
The spiritual power was condensed and turned into two sharp arrows. He pulled the bowstring casually, aimed at the backs of the two people, and released it gently.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The two sharp arrows from the string brought up a long sound that broke through the air, easily breaking through the spiritual shield condensed behind them, and piercing into their hearts.
"Perfect hit!"
Lin Dongjiu smiled, and then he walked up to the middle-aged man lying on the ground moaning in pain. His smile instantly faded and his face turned grim.
"Speaking of which, it seems that I haven't offended you, right? So, who sent you?"
"I won't tell...the forces behind me...you can't afford to offend...if you kill me...don't even think about living in peace..."
"ah!!"
Before he could finish his threatening words, the middle-aged man suddenly let out a cruel cry. His legs were cut off by the roots, and blood spurted out like spring water.
Lin Dongjiu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"If you don't want to break your third leg, I advise you to be more sensible and tell everything you know. Maybe I will spare your life."
"Don't...just let me go...I'll say anything!"
The severe pain made the corners of his face twitch and roll his eyes, but in order to survive, he even spoke much faster:
"Yes... they are from Kunlun Sword Pavilion. They paid a lot of money to buy your head. We just accepted his bounty mission, so we are staying in your sect, waiting for you to come out, so that... we can take your head.
!”
"Oh, it turns out they are those bastards from Kunlun Sword Pavilion."
Lin Dongjiu scratched his ears. In addition to Feng Yin Sect, he also killed many disciples of their sect in the secret realm. Even their chief disciple Su Yuan was beaten to death by the Great Sage.
Moreover, the news that he returned to the clan alive spread quickly, so it is reasonable for Kunlun Jiange to secretly send people to take revenge.
Lin Dongjiu thought for a while and asked again:
"Where are their bounties posted?"
"It was announced within the Loose Cultivator Alliance. I am the leader of the Loose Cultivator Alliance in Lingyun Kingdom, and so are the four people you killed."
"For the sake of the Sanxiu Alliance, can you spare my life? I am willing to be your..."
Before he finished speaking, his head rolled down with a loud murmur, and his eyes widened. Maybe he didn't expect that he would be killed so happily before he died.
"I don't need it."
Lin Dongjiu said lightly, wiped the remaining blood on the blue light sword, picked up his storage ring, and burned his body with a fire.
He came to the two corpses again and searched out their storage rings and storage bags.
After casually checking the loot, Lin Dongjiu couldn't help but take a breath:
"These old gangsters are really poor!"
Twenty or thirty high-grade spiritual stones, some low-quality magic weapons, a few ordinary spiritual herbs and elixirs... nothing valuable!
However, there was a token among these stored magic weapons, which attracted Lin Dongjiu's attention.
He took out a piece and looked at it carefully.
The material is pretty good. It should be polished from some kind of extremely high-quality jade. It should be able to fetch some money, but it won't fetch a big price.
There are a few simple patterns carved on the token. On the front are the six characters "Lingyun Guosan Xiu Alliance" and on the back are the two characters "rudder".
This should be an identification token, but strangely, there is no name or other information engraved on it.
Lin Dongjiu didn't think much and just put away the token. One of his plans was to find an opportunity to break into the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, but he didn't expect that the Rogue Cultivator Alliance would find him first.
