Chapter 222: Peach Wood Sword and Thunderbolt
Chapter 222: Peach Wood Sword and Thunderbolt
The Seven Southern Stars are also known as the Seven Vermillion Bird Stars.
Xu Qing's magical power is called Suzaku Divine Fire, which is the magical power of the Suzaku Seven Stars. After his purple palace was opened up, he used the Xuantian visualization method to open up the Tianshi Emperor Vein, one of the three major soul hidden veins, and through it, he connected the Suzaku Seven Stars.
Of course the power of his Seven Stars of Vermillion Bird was not as strong as that of the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Sword, but after attracting the Seven Southern Stars, a vague shadow of a divine bird, Vermillion Bird, flew out from Xu Qing's soul, absorbing the star power of the Seven Southern Stars. In the Weiyang Divine Mist, it was like a small sun, burning the divine mist.
At this time, Mr. Kong had already issued orders on behalf of the head of the Yang family, ordering the powerful archers among the barbarian soldiers to shoot arrows coated with the blood of wild beasts at the Weiyang Divine Mist.
These arrows have special spells on them and are extremely useful when used in conjunction with blood evil to deal with spirits.
Unexpectedly, Xu Qing mobilized the Seven Southern Stars and released the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire, which burned a gap in the Weiyang Divine Mist. Before the arrows could shoot at him, he transformed himself into a nimble little dragon and escaped calmly.
"The Weiyang Sword is indeed powerful. Please ask Envoy Yang to keep it properly. I will come to get it in three days."
Xu Qing's laughter echoed in the void, like rolling thunder, crashing down into the military camp.
Mr. Kong looked horrified, "This man is Xu Qing."
He didn't expect Xu Qing's magical powers to be so powerful that he could use his soul to escape from the army and get rid of the Weiyang Divine Mist.
hateful.
If Mr. Kong had known that it was Xu Qing, he should have waited until the other party had penetrated deep into the camp before making any plans. By then, even if the other party was a ghost immortal-level evil spirit, it would be difficult for him to escape the bloody evil spirit of the army.
Mr. Kong immediately regained his composure and said to the head of the Yang family, "Don't worry, sir. This Weiyang Divine Sword is a relic of the Zhuge family. Back then, Cao's army of 100,000 was covered by the divine mist for half a day. Even if Xu Gongming escaped this time, he couldn't dispel the divine mist, which shows that his magical powers are just so-so."
The head of the Yang family nodded. As long as he was in the army, he was not afraid no matter how powerful the enemy's Taoist magic was, not to mention he had the Weiyang Sword in his hand.
But Xu Qingyan's words were still ringing in his ears. He would come to take the sword in three days, which made him feel sad.
...
...
In Juzhou City, Xu Qing opened his eyes.
Su Lianqing: "Sir, what's going on?"
Xu Qing smiled and said, "The Weiyang Sword is indeed powerful. No wonder Master Xiong Chan asked me to collect it on this trip."
Although he used the Suzaku Divine Fire to break a gap in the Weiyang Divine Mist, he also realized the power of the Weiyang Divine Sword. It was indeed extraordinary. Even in a large army, it could still exert considerable power.
With this magical object in hand, it will definitely have an impact on the Black Mountain Demon.
Su Lianqing: "Sir, since the Weiyang Sword is so powerful, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break it."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "Go and ask Brother Feng to come over."
"only."
Soon, Feng Qingtian rushed over after hearing the news.
Xu Qing explained the details of the Weiyang Divine Sword and said, "When we defeat the enemy in three days, if they raise the Weiyang Divine Mist, we will definitely be unable to resist. After thinking about it, I think only thunder magic can break it. By then, I will need Brother Feng to protect me."
He had a peach wood sword on him and had learned how to attract heavenly thunder at Mount Longhu.
The peach wood sword is made of wood that has been struck by lightning, and is perfect for catching thunder from the sky.
By then, with the Golden Light Mantra as the foundation, the peach wood sword as the medium, and then guiding the heavenly thunder, it will naturally be possible to break the Weiyang Divine Mist.
As for the time being set three days later, it was precisely because Xu Qing calculated the weather and found that there would be a thunderbolt three days later, which would be a good time to attract the thunder.
But as soon as it rained, the army got stuck in the mud, and the battle must have been very difficult.
But this is fair, and the same goes for Yang's barbarians.
Moreover, the purple thunder cannon has been delivered in the past two days. As long as the heavenly thunder and the purple thunder cannon are used together before the heavy rain, not to mention the lethality, the power alone is enough to scare the barbarians.
This is to win the heart first.
It can be said that although Xu Qing did not use any strange strategies, he did have strange weapons and skills.
Moreover, from his previous observations, he did find that there was no particularly powerful aura in the enemy's camp, only some small scum.
Mr. Kong naturally could not have imagined that he was also classified as a small fry by Xu Qing.
It’s because Xu Qing’s vision is too high now, and ordinary masters of internal energy training are not in his eyes.
Mr. Kong is knowledgeable, but his ability is just so-so.
The only thing that Xu Qing feared was the blood evil of the army, which was enough to shake the Yin God at the ghost fairy level, making it difficult for him to use his Taoist magic, not to mention that his current soul was only stronger than that of an ordinary possessed soul master, and had not yet reached the level of a ghost fairy.
In war, the Martial Saint has a greater influence, charging into battle and being invincible.
However, the ability of ghost immortals to reincarnate is beyond the reach of a martial saint.
Moreover, in a one-on-one fight, the Ghost Immortal and the Martial Saint can handle it.
Even a Martial Saint could be killed by the endless tricks of the Ghost Immortals if he had powerful magical weapons to protect him.
Of course, unlucky ghost immortals may be caught by the Martial Saint and their souls may be shattered during this process.
Therefore, gods generally don’t fight. They mostly let their mounts do the fighting, as their own lives are very precious.
Xu Qing used the peach wood sword to cast the golden light spell to draw thunder from the sky, which was similar to the "magic sword controlling thunder" in the sword cultivator's legend.
But "Divine Sword Controlling Thunder" can be used anytime and anywhere, regardless of time and place.
Moreover, "Divine Sword Controlling Thunder" is the secret of Shangqing Sect.
In today's world, only the Shangqing Palace in Laoshan has the inheritance.
Even now, it is hard to say whether there is anyone in the Shangqing Palace in Laoshan who can do this.
...
...
Time passed quickly, Xu Qing was ready, and the army set out.
Although it is called a large army, in fact, the number of people is smaller than that of Yang's barbarians. Moreover, after a period of reorganization, these government troops are only slightly better in terms of discipline, and their actual combat effectiveness is not clear at all.
Fortunately, the government troops were brought out, and overall, the process was stable, at least they didn't get lost.
On the other side, Yang's troops set up camp in Qianzhusi and had already taken defensive measures.
Because the time Xu Qing set for taking the sword was actually the time when the two armies would fight.
At this moment, Mr. Kong was even less anxious.
He spread the news, and it would be a joke if Xu Qing didn't come on time.
If they come, Yang's army will be well-rested and won't have to attack Juzhou City, so they have a good chance of winning no matter how you look at it.
In his opinion, Xu Qing's challenge to a fight was undoubtedly a death wish.
Under the guidance of Mr. Kong, the head of the Yang family could not figure out that since he had the advantage of location and people, there was no room for Xu Qing to struggle. Moreover, Mr. Kong observed the celestial phenomena and said that it might rain today.
Once it rains, it will be even less likely for the other side to defeat them.
However, at this time of year, when it is not raining, the road is very easy to travel on, and it is not the hottest season yet. In addition, Qianzhusi is not far from Juzhou City, so the government troops are not too tired on the journey.
They formed their battle formation according to Xu Qing's request.
During this period, if the head of the Yang family listens to advice and holds on steadily, he will surely win.
Therefore, they did not take advantage of the time when Xu Qing's side formed a formation to attack.
Moreover, Mr. Kong could see that Xu Qing had an ambush, and if they rushed out rashly, their morale would most likely be damaged.
Time passed little by little.
Sand and rocks were flying between heaven and earth, and gradually there was a howling of wind.
The head of the Yang family became more and more relieved, because just as Mr. Kong said, it was going to rain.
But, it didn't rain.
The black barrel of the Purple Thunder Cannon was already aimed at Yang's camp.
"Sir, be careful, this is the purple thunder cannon of Fangxiandao." When the Taoist of Heshandao saw the purple thunder cannon being pushed out, he was immediately horrified and went to find the head of the Yang family.
The head of the Yang family was no stranger to artillery. After hearing the explanation from the Taoist priest of Heshan Dao, he had a more intuitive understanding of the power of the Purple Thunder Cannon.
Didn't wait for him to react.
On the other side, Xu Qing had already set up the altar.
The peach wood sword and the golden light spell took effect. The sky suddenly became pitch black.
The crosshairs of the artillery had already been adjusted in advance by the gunner sent by the Dongming Gang.
Just wait for Xu Qing's order and fire immediately.
This is a combination of firearms and supernatural powers.
Rumble!
Both the Yang family army and the government troops in Juzhou City witnessed a scene that they would never forget.
The war can be fought this way!
The artillery bombardment and the thunder bombardment occurred almost at the same time.
Even though the Juzhou government troops had prepared themselves mentally in advance and plugged their ears with cloth strips, they still felt extremely shocked.
Thunder and artillery shells fell...
For a moment, Yang's army couldn't tell whether it was a cannonball or thunder, and they thought it was the angry god.
The government troops in Juzhou City received the order and took advantage of the chaos to rush forward.
At this time, Yang's barbarians were unable to organize themselves into a formation, and their defensive measures were quickly broken down. They suffered a crushing defeat.
The Weiyang Divine Mist of the Weiyang Sword had just risen when it was broken by heavenly thunder and artillery.
This powerful relic of Zhuge Liang would instinctively feel fear when faced with thunder and firearms, not to mention that the person controlling it was not Zhuge Liang reincarnated.
It is difficult to compete with the power of nature and artillery with its own innate strength alone.
Times have changed!
The sound of thunder bombardment became smaller and smaller, and the purple thunder cannon also needed to cool down after a round of firing. However, the morale of the Juzhou official army was extremely high, while the morale of the Yang army was extremely low.
The peach wood sword originally had cracks in it, and now, under the influence of the thunder from the Golden Light Curse, it was completing the last journey of its life.
This sacred object of the Lotus Sect made of lightning-struck wood seemed to have completed its historical mission.
Born from thunder, die from thunder.
In front of Xu Qing, the peach wood sword turned into ashes.
A past was buried and a new myth began.
Xu Qing seemed like a god descending from heaven, holding the heaviest spear in Juzhou City and charging into the army.
The martial arts master's power, with the help of the spear, is extremely terrifying.
In a large army, spears are more useful than Wuji swords, and Xu Qing does not need any sophisticated moves. With the Bu Tian Jie Hand, he can use any weapon skillfully.
Xu Qingru used a steel knife to cut through the defense of Yang's barbarians.
He is always at the forefront.
When the Juzhou government troops saw that Xu Liudu was leading the troops in person, their morale was so high that it was unimaginable.
Under the charge of Xu Qingtian, the god who descended from the earth, the Yang family was unable to stop it.
A great battle ended in the drizzle.
Perhaps because Xu Qing had caused the thunder to fall from the sky, the rain fell very slowly.
It only started to grow bigger towards the end of the war.
At this time, we have entered the stage of cleaning up the battlefield.
Both the head of the Yang family and the Taoist priest of Heshan Road were caught. However, Mr. Kong gritted his teeth, used a magic talisman, and ran away immediately.
...
...
In Juzhou City, all the core figures of the Yang family were taken into the city.
This sudden rebellion also ended suddenly. The head of the Yang family regretted his actions and begged for mercy from Xu Qing and Governor Zhou.
Xu Qing sent a professional interrogation expert from Juzhou City to ask the head of the Yang family many questions. After compiling the documents, he prepared to take the criminals back to Beijing.
In addition, there was no news of Feng Wu's childbirth, which made him a little uneasy.
I don’t know if it was an accident.
When a lover goes on an expedition, what he cares about most is still his wife and children.
Fortunately, we have the old Taoist priest to protect us, and we are in Jiangning Prefecture, so nothing should happen.
Naturally, the news of Xu Liushou's victory over the bandits was quickly passed back to the court.
Moreover, the short time it took was far beyond the court's expectations.
Soon after Xu Qing defeated the Yang clan, the Miao people's rebellion of the Shuidong Song clan was also quelled. The Shuixi An clan and the Shuidong Song clan even made a promise that there would be no more Miao people's rebellion within three years, otherwise they would be beheaded and brought to Xu Liushou.
Xu Qing knew that the two families had been frightened by him, so there would be no recurrence in the short term.
And now is not the time to dwell on these things.
His time is tight.
The next matters would be handled by his uncle, the Red Flower Society, the Fushe Society and Yang Xiucai. Xu Qing soon set out on the journey back to Beijing and prepared to send Su Lianqing and Feng Qingtian back to look after his mistress.
There is our good brother Lin Tianwang taking care of us.
Even so, Xu Qing was still a little worried.
Fortunately, before Su Lianqing and the others set off, Xu Qing received a message from the old Taoist priest about Taoism.
After reading it, Xu Qing fell into confusion and contemplation.
"Give birth to a demon child?" Xu Qing found it hard to accept.
But the facts are before our eyes.
There was no need for the old Taoist priest to lie to him.
And the person has been sent to the capital.
Because in this regard, Feng Wu trusts the master of Chaotian Temple more.
In the letter, the old Taoist priest also told Xu Qing that if nothing unexpected happened, the child would be the fourth generation Black Mountain Demon.
He is the descendant of the Black Mountain Old Demon by destiny.
Just as he was the successor of this generation of Xuantian Shenglong Dao, his son was destined to join the Seven Killing Demon Palace and inherit the Taoist tradition of the Black Mountain Old Demon.
Moreover, when the demon child is born, the Black Mountain Old Demon will definitely sense it and will come looking for him sooner or later.
Xu Qing's joy at defeating Yang disappeared after receiving the letter.
Xu Qing led his cavalry and rushed back to Beijing day and night, even faster than Feng Wu and the others.
The Ministry of War received the news and reported it to the Emperor.
Because this great victory was very encouraging, the emperor ordered all civil and military officials to go out of the city to welcome Xu Qing's triumphant return, and asked Prince Yu to preside over the reception.
Xu Qing had something on his mind, and even when he saw the court welcoming him so solemnly, he was absent-minded.
Prince Yu remained calm, received the guests attentively, and asked the cavalrymen around Xu Qing to take off their armor.
These cavalrymen were carefully selected by several major chieftains and sent to Xu Qing for his use, and they only obeyed the orders of Xu Qing.
Prince Yu repeatedly asked them to take off their armor and rest.
The cavalrymen acted as if they didn't hear anything.
Seeing this, Xu Qing said calmly, "Take off your armor."
Then, all the cavalrymen took off their armor in an orderly manner.
Prince Yu's face turned black on the spot, but he didn't dare to get angry.
Xu Qing didn't care what kind of trouble his domineering behavior would cause. He controlled his temper, completed the process of a triumphant return, and returned to the Feng Mansion.
When he picked up his wife the next day, he saw Feng Wu holding the baby in his arms and was filled with worry.
Xu Qing comforted him, "Don't worry, this is a good thing. It means that everything in the Seven Killing Demon Palace is destined to be ours. And with the Taoist tradition of the world's number one master, we don't have to worry about the dowry for our son to marry in the future."
These words made Feng Wu burst into laughter.
