Chapter 286 The Wrath of the Martial Saint
"Who are you anyway?"
Li Long's eyes flashed with aura, trying to see through the Taoist's true form.
Daqian has been a country for fifteen hundred years. In the eyes of ordinary people, it has been passed down for a long time. However, in the eyes of immortals and Buddhas, it is nothing more than that.
The Taoist in front of him looks young, but his real age may be that he is an immortal whose life span is longer than that of his country.
"Blessings and Immeasurable Heavenly Lord!"
Zhou Yikou preached the Taoist name, and the black and yellow divine light covered his aura, and said: "I am a poor Taoist from the mountains. I live in seclusion in Luojing on weekdays. The more I hear and see, the more I know."
Li Long asked back: "Fellow Taoist, do you think I will believe in a clone that hides its head and reveals its tail?"
"Believe it or not, how about you listen to it, fellow Taoist?"
Zhou Yi didn't dare to come forward in person. The warrior barbarian's brain circuit was different from that of the immortal Buddha, and he would take action without warning.
"Then let's hear what secrets Taoist friend knows."
Li Long's senses are so sensitive. When he heard the three names of Holy Mother, Xianlian and Jingtai, he already had a guess in his heart, but he didn't want to believe it.
Emperor Jingtai was the emperor appointed by Li Long. When he was not injured, he traveled to the sixteen states of Li Daqian and saw that the governments in various places were harmonious and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. He was full of praise for Emperor Jingtai's ability to govern the country.
Similar to Emperor Guangming!
The source of this sentence comes from Li Long, the son of Emperor Guangming.
"Emperor Jingtai teamed up with the Holy Mother of White Lotus and the Witch God to set up a trap, causing fellow Taoist to be seriously injured and dying. The purpose was to imprison the fellow Taoist so that he could let go of his hands and feet to cause trouble and ripen the Nine Nether Fairy Lotus. The fairy lotus matured some time ago. !”
Zhou Yi does not need to explain it from the beginning, he only needs to point out the key point, and Li Long will sort out and find out the rest.
"impossible!"
Li Long's voice was cold: "Jingtai's martial arts realm is one step away from being a martial saint. If the immortal lotus matures, he would have become a saint by now!"
Zhou Yi shrugged and said: "Maybe God can't bear to see it, and the fairy lotus seeds were stolen after they matured..."
boom!
There was a loud noise, the void twisted, and Li Long reached out to grab it.
The skinny five fingers struck the black and yellow divine light and trembled continuously.
"You really are a barbarian!"
Zhou Yi waved his hand, and hundreds of thousands of lightning techniques blasted past.
Each thunderbolt landed on the weak spot of the restriction, almost interrupting the formation's operation.
"Ahem!"
Li Long coughed violently and apologized: "I made a mistake, fellow Taoist, don't blame me."
As he spoke, he kept looking at the black and yellow divine light, secretly guessing what kind of treasure it was that could block the attack of the Martial Saint.
"Fellow Taoist, you wouldn't think that it was a poor Taoist who stole the fairy lotus seeds, right?"
Zhou Yi put away his Five Thunder Magical Powers and didn't care about Li Long's sneak attack. He would still test it.
There are countless magical powers and secrets in the world, and there is no guarantee that someone can change the breath of immortals and Buddhas. Only those who have tried it violently are qualified to continue talking.
"Is not it?"
Li Long believed that he had telepathy and that the Taoist in front of him was closely related to the theft of the fairy lotus.
"Pindao did take a few glances, but unfortunately the underground formation is too mysterious, and he can't tell when the immortal lotus will mature."
Zhou Yi looked regretful: "Just a few days ago, I had a battle with an enemy, and when I came back, I saw that the fairy lotus seeds had disappeared."
"snort!"
Li Long thought to himself, what the Taoist said in front of him was somewhat true or false.
This Taoist possesses supreme hidden magical powers and an invincible Martial Saint sense, but he can only make vague judgments.
Zhou Yi added another dose of surprise: "Fellow Taoist, do you want to know who stole the fairy lotus seeds?"
The Nine Nether Immortal Lotus is the foundation of Daqian's country. The continuous bad news made Li Long uneasy and couldn't help but ask.
"who?"
"Descendants of Taizu!"
When Zhou Yi spoke, carefully observe Li Long's reaction.
The person in the coffin under the Demon Refining Cave is most likely Li Hong, Taizu of Daqian. As for whether he is alive or dead, it is hard to say.
"Taizu..."
Li Long sighed and said without continuing to ask.
"Fellow Taoist told me about this, didn't you just come here to see a joke?"
"Of course not. Pindao admires fellow Taoist very much."
Zhou Yi said: "This time I come to make a deal with fellow Taoist!"
Li Long: "What do you want?"
"Jingtai!"
Zhou Yi took out the life-extending elixir that Cang Suyuan deceived and said, "This elixir can extend the life of immortals and Buddhas for fifty years. What do you think, fellow Taoist?"
"Jingtai is the monarch of Daqian, the grandson of the old age, the face of the royal family..."
Li Long paused and continued: "One piece is not enough, you have to double it!"
There is resistance to taking the life-extending elixir. The second pill is far less effective than the first pill, but it can still add another twenty or thirty years to one's life.
"There is only one life-extending elixir."
Zhou Yi took out another treasure, three feet in size, with clear eyebrows and all four limbs. It was a fat white doll made of lotus roots.
"This is the immortal lotus root spiritual body. It can be used to seize the body, and can also be transformed into a clone. It can be directly transformed into the body of fellow Taoist as elixir, and most of the injuries can be healed!"
The Immortal Lotus Root Spiritual Body was a large treasure at Cang Suyuan's auction. In order to appease the anger of Qiongqi Demon God, the Immortal Immortal asked him to bid for it at will, and then fell into Zhou Yi's hands.
At the fair held once in a century, the life-extending elixir was replaced with a fake fairy material, and the great treasure was given away to Qiongqi for free. I wonder if the longevity guy secretly wiped away his tears.
"Changed!"
Li Long agreed simply and neatly.
Even if Zhou Yi doesn't take out the Immortal Lotus Spirit Body and delays it for a few days, Li Long will eventually agree.
After all, throw away the rags anyway, why not sell them in exchange for some treasures? As for the dignity of the royal family, how can you throw away things that you don’t have in the first place?
"Fellow Taoist still needs to evade for a while, and I still need to investigate!"
Li Long still had a glimmer of hope in his heart.
Emperor Jingtai had been a good emperor all his life in front of Li Long. It was impossible for him to completely deny it just because of a few words from Zhou Yi.
Even if it is true, Li Long still has to ask, why did Emperor Jingtai come to this?
"I am waiting for good news."
Zhou Yi turned into light and disappeared.
Just as Li Long was about to summon the people from the Dragon Guard Division to inquire, he saw the escaping light turning back and falling into the palace.
"Why do fellow Taoists go and come back?"
"I still have something to ask for!"
Zhou Yi said slowly: "I have heard for a long time that the power of the Martial Saint can kill demon gods. When my fellow Taoist can move easily, I would like to ask for advice!"
"If fellow Taoist has no such request, I will come to visit you!"
Li Long didn't have any good impression of Zhouyi. Firstly, he was thinking about the Nine Nether Immortal Lotus, and secondly, he knew too much.
"Very good!"
Zhou Yi's figure flickered and disappeared.
Li Long sensed carefully and confirmed that Zhou Yi had left, and summoned the elder of the Dragon Guard Division.
"Zhen'er, come in and talk!"
After a while.
The white-haired Taoist opened the door and walked in. He bowed and asked with an anxious look on his face.
"Uncle Six, that senior has left?"
The Taoist is Li Zhen, the current commander of the Dragon Protection Division, the grandson of Emperor Guangming, and the nephew of Li Long.
"Um."
Li Long said: "Zhen'er, how has Jingtai governed the country in recent years?"
Li Zhen's expression remained unchanged and he said: "Your Majesty is diligent in his work, loves the people, appoints talents and uses them, and the country's strength is booming. The sixth uncle has a wise eye and knows the wise king, which will definitely become a good story in the history of the country."
These words would have made Li Long smile before, but now they sounded extremely harsh.
"Zhen'er, you are my nephew!"
Li Long said slowly: "You have to tell the truth about Jingtai!"
Li Zhen felt a mountain of pressure and almost fell to his knees when his legs gave out. He gritted his teeth and said while holding back his fear.
"What my nephew said is absolutely true, I don't dare to deceive Uncle Six!"
"Ahem!"
Li Long coughed violently several times, grabbed Li Zhen's head with his hand, and smashed it into pieces with a bang.
Blood dripping, red and white splashing everywhere.
A Yang Shen came out of the body, with a look of confusion on his face, and then the terrifying energy swept through the Yang Shen inch by inch, forcibly reading Li Zhen's memory.
Search for souls!
Li Long's face turned gloomy when he saw the memories, and he crushed Yang Shen into pieces with his palms together.
"Okay, okay! They are both good nephews and great grandchildren of this old man!"
…
Longevity Palace.
Green smoke curls up.
Emperor Jingtai felt the power of the real immortal, and his mind kept warning him.
The oppressive Emperor Jingtai almost went crazy with unabashed malice. However, whenever he wanted to leave the palace, a life and death crisis would come.
"Who is it?"
"I have never been against a true immortal. I am so rampant. Aren't I afraid of my ancestor..."
suddenly.
A roar exploded in his ears.
"Jingtai, come see me immediately!"
This voice was very familiar to Emperor Jingtai. It was Li Long, the ancestor of the Martial Saint.
"Could it be..."
Emperor Jingtai's face darkened and he looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, wondering why the real immortal was meddling in the royal family's private affairs.
The entire Daqian is owned by the Li family, and no matter how hard it is, it is their own business.
"Big companion."
After Emperor Jingtai finished speaking, Eunuch Chu immediately appeared behind him.
"When I am waiting for you, please remember to set a fire in Wenyuan Pavilion!"
"His Majesty……"
Eunuch Chu wanted to say something else, but Emperor Jingtai had disappeared.
Arrive outside Fulong Palace.
Emperor Jingtai straightened his clothes and went in without any courtesy.
In the outer hall, several elders of the Dragon Guard were kneeling and did not dare to raise their heads. On the threshold of the inner hall, a headless corpse lay.
Emperor Jingtai raised his head and looked directly at Li Long, and said sarcastically: "As expected of my ancestor, he is really ruthless. His own nephew will kill him whenever he says!"
"Have I ever done anything wrong to you?"
Li Long said in a deep voice: "How many people in the world learn martial arts from a martial sage as soon as they are born? And they appointed you to inherit the throne. Later, when I heard that a tax from gods was going to be collected, I even took action against the Buddhist and Taoist juniors regardless of their appearance!"
"Old ancestors naturally treat their grandchildren well!"
Emperor Jingtai said: "However, the descendants have asked the ancestors several times whether they can ripen the fairy lotus decades earlier. Why are they always rejected?"
"The fairy lotus will ripen every three hundred years. That is the rule set by the father. No one can break it!"
Li Long said: "Although you have no chance, some of your sons and grandsons will be promoted to Martial Saints. Why fight with your children and grandsons for their lives?"
"Son and grandson? What does that have to do with me?"
Emperor Jingtai said: "I have been working hard to govern the country for decades, and my achievements are not comparable to those of Taizu Zhongzong. No one else can compare with me. Just because I was born decades earlier, I have no chance to meet the fairy lotus? Of course I don't accept it!"
Li Long said angrily: "Just because you don't accept it, you want to murder your ancestors?"
Emperor Jingtai sneered and said: "Those who block my way are all enemies. Fathers, sons and brothers kill each other, let alone our ancestors!"
"evil creature!"
Li Long waved his hand and slapped Emperor Jingtai, sending him flying backwards.
"Ahem!"
Emperor Jingtai got up from the ground, vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, and said: "Why should my ancestor be angry? This junior learned this from you!"
"Nonsense!"
Li Long flicked his finger, and his true energy shattered Emperor Jingtai's internal organs.
If it had not been used to replace the longevity elixir and the immortal lotus root spiritual body, Li Long would have killed Emperor Jingtai with one palm.
"Ancestor, have you forgotten that you are the sixth son of Zhongzong!"
Emperor Jingtai struggled to stand up, wiped the blood on his dragon robe, and said: "The eldest prince was indeed in trouble back then, but the second son of Zhongzong was extremely talented in martial arts, and the fifth son was born with a Taoist body..."
"Why was it you who became the Martial Saint in the end?"
"you……"
Li Long's face turned pale, his energy and blood were reversed, and he vomited blood.
"Since my ancestor has forgotten, my grandson will remind me."
Emperor Jingtai pressed forward step by step and said: "Back then, the eldest prince fell to death while riding a horse, the second son of Zhongzong went crazy while practicing martial arts, and the fifth son died of demons while traveling. They all died on the way."
"The third son and the fourth son are smart people. They asked for vassalship early to save their lives!"
"There is only one prince in the palace, my ancestor. The emperor wanted to pass on the throne to you, but he actually declined and gave it to the grandson of the then emperor."
"Shisun is very curious, does the ancestor also have regrets?"
Emperor Jingtai was so close that Li Long wanted to slap him to death, but he couldn't do it.
"Ahem! I killed my eldest brother, second brother, and fifth brother for the Fairy Lotus Seed. Now their descendants are also seeking revenge for the Fairy Lotus Seed. There is nothing to say about karma..."
The figure of his brother flashed before Li Long's eyes, with a worshipful look on his face, waving his hands and saying: "You go, I won't kill you!"
A ray of light flashed in Emperor Jingtai's eyes. The secret technique of the Heart Demon Sect's Soul Confusion was really miraculous. As long as he saved his life today, he would swallow the immortal lotus whole when he turned around.
Fairy lotus seeds allow people to break through the realm, and the whole fairy lotus may have the same effect. As for the demonic energy contained in it, Emperor Jingtai can no longer control that much.
I would rather become a demon than die!
This was Emperor Jingtai's last plan. He was originally planning to do this again after failing to conquer the Demon Kingdom in the north.
Emperor Jingtai was about to leave when a voice suddenly sounded.
"Fellow Taoist, are you still selling Jingtai?"
Zhou Yi held the Lost Soul Bell, blocked Emperor Jingtai's path, and knocked gently.
Buzz!
The ringing of the bell penetrated his soul, and Li Long immediately broke free from his inner demons.
"Um?"
Li Long recalled the previous scene, frowned, and said coldly: "Okay, okay! As expected of the emperor I chose, I accidentally let you deceive me!"
"Damn it!"
Emperor Jingtai cursed angrily, his energy circulated, and the emperor's figure appeared behind him.
"Roar!"
With a long roar, two rays of light broke through Fulong Palace and fled to the north and south respectively.
Zhou Yi was about to chase after him when he heard Li Long say.
"Fellow Taoist, if you don't want to see the power of the Martial Saint, let's use Jingtai to demonstrate it!"
Li Long stood up from the confinement of the formation. His originally dry and thin figure expanded as if filled with air, transforming from an old man to a burly middle-aged man.
One step misses the mark.
The void was full of cracks, and Li Long used his strength to chase south.
In the blink of an eye, Emperor Jingtai had escaped from the capital. Hearing the roar from behind, he subconsciously turned around.
He saw that Li Long had already chased him to a distance of three feet, and Emperor Jingtai shouted in fright.
"Ancestor, spare your life!"
"Hey, stop pretending, I know this is the true meaning of martial arts!"
Li Long grabbed "Jingtai", squeezed it gently, and shattered it into pieces filled with pure energy.
Then he flew backwards to the north, and within a few breaths, he caught up with the fleeing Emperor Jingtai's true form.
"Ancestor..."
"Shut up!"
Li Long roared angrily, and the void trembled, directly shattering Emperor Jingtai's seven orifices.
Carrying Emperor Jingtai back to Fulong Palace, he was still in front of Zhou Yi. Li Long's breath quickly weakened and he turned into a skinny old man again.
"awesome!"
Zhou Yi clapped his hands and praised that it was not difficult to catch Emperor Jingtai back. Li Long's ability to break the void with his hands and feet was really terrifying.
