Zhou Yuan looked at the fused magic circle with a smile on his face, and then he raised his hand and waved.
Wow!
Just on the surface of the newly arranged magic circle barrier, a gap instantly appeared. This gap was like a door, opening the way to the palace.
Seeing this situation, everyone around them looked surprised.
The Talisman Masters were also greatly surprised. They looked at Zhou Yuan with disbelief on their faces.
Yuntianhua was dumbfounded, his eyes flashed with brilliance, and he praised Zhou Yuan: "It's really surprising. I didn't expect you to come up with such a method. This is a path I have never imagined before.
"
"Awesome, so awesome, Mr. Zhou Yuan, I really admire you now."
"Master Zhou Yuan, you are truly a magic circle genius."
The few talisman masters who had previously scorned Zhou Yuan all started complimenting him now.
"I didn't expect that Zhou Yuan would do this to you." Yun Chen was also surprised and happy, looking at Zhou Yuan as if he was looking at a monster.
Zhou Yuan smiled slightly. The reason why he was able to research this small magic circle so quickly was because his consciousness clone was consulting the classics in the Divine Formation Building.
Moreover, the flow of time in Linglong Realm is different from that in the outside world. Four or five days have passed in the outside world, while at least half a month has passed inside.
Relying on the difference in time, Zhou Yuan was able to achieve such a high level of attainment in the magic circle.
"Dean, the fact that the magic circle has been cracked cannot be announced immediately, so as not to alert others. I want you to stay here first, and I will sneak in with His Highness the Crown Prince to find a way to rescue Emperor Yun."
Zhou Yuan then said to Yuntianhua.
Yuntianhua understood clearly in his heart and immediately nodded and said: "That's very good."
It seems that these forces outside are all here to support Yun Chen, but it is inevitable that Yun Zheng's people will be mixed in. If they were to scare the snake, and Yun Zheng found out that they had broken the magic circle, they might be disadvantageous to Emperor Yun in a hurry.
Zhou Yuan and Yun Chen immediately used the method of concealing their aura and passed through the gap.
Yuntianhua, on the other hand, asked several Talisman Masters to come together and block the gap to prevent more people from discovering it.
With Zhou Yuan and Yun Chen's cultivation, they entered the palace without anyone noticing. They climbed over the high wall, passed through the long corridor of green bricks and green tiles, and groped their way towards the depths of the palace step by step.
The journey was extremely smooth and no one came to intercept them, which meant that Yun Zheng did not notice the two of them.
Not long after, Yun Chen relied on his own guesses and his familiarity with the layout of the palace to detect the aura of Emperor Yun.
He and Zhou Yuan quickly arrived at Taixuan Palace.
After stepping on a piece of golden rubble, the cat squatted on the roof of an attic, and the two of them looked at the palace below at the same time.
That palace was different from other palaces. There was a faint golden shield above the palace. Zhou Yuan recognized it at a glance as a sealing formation.
The palace door was open, and there was a figure in royal robes inside.
"Father." Yun Chen's expression showed anxiety, but also surprise.
Emperor Yun was imprisoned in the palace for several months, and Yun Chen had been worried about his safety. Now that he saw him safe and sound, the stone in his heart dropped.
Outside the main hall, the guards were staring around cautiously, but they did not notice Zhou Yuan and Yun Chen.
Puff puff!
The next moment, two afterimages rushed towards the guards from two directions. Before the guards had time to react, sword lights flashed past, and their heads fell to the ground.
Previously, Dong Xinghai relaxed his guard over Emperor Yun and left these few guards to guard him. He thought that with him and Yun Zheng controlling the entire palace, and with the five-color flag formation in full defense mode, it was impossible for Emperor Yun to escape.
.
At this moment, Zhou Yuan and Yunchen were quick to deal with them one by one before they were discovered.
"Chen'er..." Emperor Yun noticed the abnormal fluctuations outside, and immediately stood up and came to the door. He saw Zhou Yuan and Yun Chen at a glance, and he suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"Father, did that beast Yun Zheng hurt you?" Yun Chen asked.
Emperor Yun shook his head, "I'm fine, it's just that the magic circle sealed me, and I've been locked up here."
"Father, don't worry. It's just a small magic circle. I'll break it open right now and rescue you." Yun Chen's face was full of worry. He immediately dodged his figure, raised his fist and blasted towards the palace's magic circle barrier.
.
"Your Highness, don't..."
"Chen'er, wait a minute..."
Seeing Yun Chen's decisive move, Zhou Yuan and Emperor Yun almost subconsciously spoke to stop him, but it was still a step too late.
Buzz!
Before Yunchen's fist touched the light curtain, there was a buzzing sound all around.
Yunchen was suddenly startled and quickly retreated.
"No, I ignored the early warning circle and you accidentally triggered it. I'm afraid Yun Zheng already knows about it at this moment." Zhou Yuan said immediately.
Yun Chen's expression changed, "I'm sorry, I'm just too impatient."
On the other side, Yun Zheng rarely relaxed and asked several beautiful women to serve him.
Just as interest arose, buzzing also came.
The next moment, Yun Zheng immediately pushed away the woman who was approaching him, and his expression instantly became solemn. The early warning circle was also arranged by him, so he could naturally detect it.
Someone triggered this magic circle, which means someone broke in.
Yun Zheng hurriedly dispersed his consciousness, and then his expression changed wildly, "Zhou Yuan?"
"Zheng'er, what happened?" Dong Xinghai stepped forward and asked.
Yun Zheng said: "Zhou Yuan and his eldest brother sneaked into the palace, and they triggered the early warning circle in Taixuan Palace."
"What? Zhou Yuan is still alive?" When Dong Xinghai heard this, his expression immediately changed.
He thought that Zhou Yuan might have died on the way to the imperial capital, and those forces would never let him go, but who knew that Zhou Yuan was in the imperial palace at this moment.
The key is... how did Zhou Yuan and Yun Chen sneak in when the five-color flag formation was in full defense?
Yun Zheng's expression showed anger. He stood up and walked out of the back hall, and then looked at the old and new courtiers waiting patiently in the front hall.
"Everyone, Yun Chen broke into Taixuan Palace alone. Now, it's time for you to show your loyalty." Yun Zheng said.
All the court officials changed their expressions and hurriedly stood up.
"We are willing to go through fire and water for Your Highness, no matter what." They all bowed and responded.
These courtiers assisted Yun Zheng in imprisoning Emperor Yun and activating the five-color flag array, which was equivalent to betraying Emperor Yun and choosing Yun Zheng.
They are all optimistic about Yun Zheng and think that Yun Zheng will be the next Yun Emperor.
Now that the current Emperor Yun is old, it is only a matter of time before he gives up the throne, and all forces are looking for sides.
The reason why they chose Yun Zheng was because they hoped that after Yun Zheng succeeded to the throne, he could quickly help them gain a foothold in the court and build a greater foundation for their descendants.
Since they have chosen to take this path, they naturally dare not shirk it.
If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent person.
So after looking at each other, they burst into aura and ran towards Taixuan Palace.
Inside Taixuan Palace.
"The matter has come to an end, and there is no need to hide it anymore. Now that Emperor Yun is safe, Your Highness, please notify the dean and let them come in, and I will break the sealing circle here." Zhou Yuan said to Yun Chen.
"Okay." Yun Chen nodded, immediately took out the talisman jade and contacted Yuntianhua.
A gap was opened in the formation, and the sound-transmitting jade was able to transmit the message. After the message was sent, Yuntianhua received it immediately, and immediately opened the gap and called for the strong men to enter.
Over at Taixuan Palace, Zhou Yuan was preparing to break the sealing formation.
A small array like this is not as complicated to crack as the five-color flag array.
But when Zhou Yuan was about to study it, Emperor Yun suddenly said: "Zhou Yuan, I have already cracked the sealing circle, and the core is in the pool behind you."
Zhou Yuan suddenly looked happy. If so, he could save a lot of time.
Emperor Yun had been imprisoned here for such a long time, so he was naturally trying to find a way to escape. However, the sealing circle suppressed his cultivation, making him behave like an ordinary person inside. Even after cracking the circle, he could not escape.
Zhou Yuan looked at the garden pool behind him.
The pool is surrounded by a rockery, there are fish playing in the water, and there is a fountain in the center, which looks very beautiful.
Zhou Yuan's eyes were sharp and he could tell at a glance that the core of the magic circle should be under the fountain.
"The new emperor has an order. Anyone who breaks into the palace without permission will die!"
"The new emperor has an order. Anyone who breaks into the palace without permission will die..."
As soon as Zhou Yuan walked out, he saw dozens of warriors in the distance, turning into streams of light and flying towards them. Each of them had a strong aura and was unparalleled in power.
"New emperor?"
Zhou Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, these should be some of the ministers in the court, and the new emperor they mentioned was undoubtedly Yun Zheng.
It was Yun Zheng who sent them here to stop Yun Chen.
At the same time, Yun Chen also frowned and his hands were trembling.
These courtiers had assisted his father for most of his life, and many of them had even watched him grow up. He really couldn't bear to ask him to kill these people.
"Zhou Yuan, I can't bear to do it myself to these old ministers of my father. It's better for you to do it while I destroy the core of the magic circle."
Yun Chen glanced at Zhou Yuan, then flew towards the pool.
Zhou Yuan's expression changed, and he understood what he was thinking and knew that he was soft-hearted, so he changed his direction, took out his long sword, and headed towards the courtiers.
Those courtiers all had their cultivation auras erupting, and they all had expressions that showed no fear of death.
In this world where martial arts is respected, they can become the elders of a country not only by their wisdom, but also by their cultivation. At this moment, the aura burst out, which shocked people.
"Your Majesty, this is your choice. Please make it happen."
One of the courtiers bore the brunt of the attack and was fearless. While speaking to Emperor Yun, he attacked Zhou Yuan with all his strength.
puff!
As soon as he got close, the sword in Zhou Yuan's hand flashed, and the body of the courtier was instantly separated. The head that fell on the ground showed his fear.
Zhou Yuan had no expression on his face and continued to move forward with his sword in hand.
"Your Majesty, you are already old, why do you need to embarrass your own children, why do you need to embarrass your old ministers?" Another courtier rushed over.
Zhou Yuan still swung his sword and killed him.
"Your Majesty, could it be that... I made the wrong choice?"
"Your Majesty, I have served you for most of my life. Can you spare me for once?"
"His Majesty……"
The courtiers who rushed over all opened their mouths to persuade Emperor Yun. From the beginning, they were full of confidence, but when they saw Zhou Yuan killing them like melons and vegetables, they all showed panic in the end.
But they did not stop and continued to charge towards Zhou Yuan.
Now that you have chosen this path, you can only go on and there is no turning back.
Even if fear arises in their hearts at this moment, they still have to risk their lives because they know that they will die sooner or later.
Puff puff!
Every courtier who rushed towards Zhou Yuan was killed by Zhou Yuan at his feet.
For a moment, there was a rush of blood and a large pile of corpses on the ground.
No matter what these courtiers said during their lifetime, Emperor Yun, who was standing in the palace, did not change his expression at all from beginning to end, watching everything indifferently.
In any case, they are all rebels. The laws of the country are no better than the laws of the family. The laws of the country are strict. If you break the law, you will die. There is no point in asking for mercy.
"Zhou Yuan, do you dare to kill my subjects?"
At this moment, a loud shout came.
Zhou Yuan raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and a figure blinked in front of him. It was the third prince Yun Zheng.
Zhou Yuan smiled disdainfully and said: "Your subjects? Emperor Yun is still alive, but you pride yourself on being the new emperor. You have used the tricks of Seven Star Academy to the fullest."
Once at Seven Star Academy, Yun Zheng gathered the young warriors who followed him, built a small court on the top of his mountain, and even built a prison privately.
At that time, he followed Emperor Yun's example of going to court every day and treating Seven Stars Academy as his own country.
And those followers, including Xiao Yang, regarded him as the next Emperor Yun.
Now, the same is true for those courtiers who follow him.
"Stop talking nonsense, Zhou Yuan, since you are here today, let's come to an end." Yun Zheng stared at Zhou Yuan, his aura began to release, and a majestic power burst out from his body.
"Zhou Yuan, when you were at Seven Star Academy, you killed many of my subordinates, and later you even defeated me in the Sky Eagle Battle. I have been forbearing from the Tianlong Ruins until now, just to kill you today."
As Yun Zheng spoke, the aura on his body gradually increased.
