"kill!"

In the mountains and forests, thousands of imperial guards were stationed in front of their respective arrow towers, and waves of arrows rushed towards the approaching robbers like a rain of arrows.

"Hahaha, how can a mere mortal arrow stop us?"

Jie Xiu laughed a few times and did not dodge the rain of arrows at all. Several rays of light flashed on his body and he managed to block the rain of arrows. A lot of flames kept flashing on his body.

At the same time, flying swords, flames, and talismans shot out from the darkness, rushing into the imperial guards and slaughtering them wantonly.

In less than a cup of tea, hundreds of people died in the attack of the robbery cultivators.

"fire……!"

At this moment, a roar suddenly came from a camp.

However, on the fortress wall constructed of cement mixed with bricks and stones, the muzzles of red cannons were already aimed at the robbers in the dark.

"boom!"

"Boom!"

In an instant, dozens of flames suddenly exploded in the darkness, and solid shells rushed into the woods like a whirlwind, cutting several large trees in half.

Flames exploded, air waves flew, and countless large trees were destroyed in an instant.

The cultivators hiding in it also suffered heavy casualties, and screams were heard continuously.

"What the hell is this? Is there a cultivator hiding among these mortals?"

"Red Cannon! This is the Red Cannon of the Dayu Dynasty! Damn it!"

"What is the Red Cannon?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Get out of the way, don't gather together, fight on your own!"

In an instant, more than a dozen dark shadows emerged from the dense forest.

They moved their bodies one after another, constantly controlling magical instruments and talismans, slaughtering the imperial guards from a hundred meters away.

As a monk, as long as he is not cautious of the imperial guards, killing a mortal is as easy as crushing an ant.

This situation continued to occur in various camps in Tianshou Mountain.

At least hundreds of robbery cultivators came from all directions and started slaughtering the soldiers in the camp.

But most of those who attacked the camp were robbery cultivators and independent cultivators in the early stage of Qi training.

As for most of the independent cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi training, they headed towards the top of Tianshou Mountain!
The purpose was to kill Emperor Zhengyong as quickly as possible, leaving Tianshou Mountain leaderless, and then start plundering!
"boom!"

At this moment, a series of explosions suddenly sounded above Tianshou Mountain.

Amidst the fierce fire, a woman in a black Taoist robe flew out from the crowd, with a golden flying sword floating beside her.

Her eyebrows were raised and her eyes were full of murderous intent.

"Who is this cultivator who dares to come to my Tianshou Mountain? Are you really not afraid of death?!"

"Xuanjizi!"

"A cultivator in the late stage of Qi training!"

"I haven't seen you for several years. Fellow Daoist Xuanjizi has actually advanced to the late stage of Qi training!"

"Anyone who stands in my way will be killed!"

Several roars were heard, and three figures flew out from the darkness and rushed towards Xuanjizi.

"Xuanjizi, do you still remember Nanling Song Yuhua?"

"Go to hell!"

The third person was very cold, wearing black clothes and a mask, and obviously didn't want anyone to discover his identity.

In an instant, three flying swords flew towards Xuanjizi from different directions.

"Humph! You're looking for death~!"

Xuanjizi snorted coldly, made a hand gesture, and the golden flying sword beside him suddenly made a cry.

Facing three cultivators of the same level, Xuanjizi did not dodge but instead controlled the flying sword to kill them.

In the dark night, two flying swords, one gold and one blue, crossed each other, and in an instant there was a crisp sound of metal clashing.

"Qiang~!"

"Crack!"

"My sword!"

Amidst the exclamations of disbelief, the female cultivator who called herself Song Yuhua screamed in agony, her heart and soul shaken.

Her flying sword was actually cut into two pieces the moment it collided with Xuanjizi's flying sword!
When his natal magic weapon was broken, Song Yuhua's magic power immediately backfired and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

But before she could react, Xuanjizi's golden flying sword had already flown in front of her.

"Do not……!"

She screamed, and the jade pendant on her waist suddenly flashed with light, turning into a golden light that protected her.

But... it's still useless!
Several years ago, Xuanjizi had already incorporated a piece of essence the size of a walnut into his flying sword.

This makes the entire flying sword extremely sharp.

With just a flash of golden light, the flying sword broke Song Yuhua's defensive shield and cut her in half in an instant.

"puff……!"

Song Yuhua was killed and blood splattered in the air.

The other two companions were too lazy to even respond, and instead once again urged their magic power to be injected into the flying swords.

They want to take advantage of the fact that Xuanjizi is busy with his own affairs and kill him directly!

As for that extremely sharp flying sword, it is naturally their trophy?
But who knows...

Just as the two flying swords flew in front of Xuanjizi, the Taoist robe she was wearing suddenly flashed and formed a starlight shield that protected her firmly.

No matter how the two flying swords attacked, they could not break the defense at all.

"A top-grade defensive magic weapon!"

One of them exclaimed, and then his eyes were filled with greed.

“Hahaha… I’ve heard for a long time that Emperor Zhengyong of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty made a fortune and acquired a large number of cultivation items. It’s true!”

"As long as I kill you...then these things will be mine!"

"It's just you?!"

Xuanjizi retorted, "Knowing that this is the place where the emperor of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty practices, you casual cultivators dare to come here to plunder. Aren't you afraid of being executed along with your entire clan?"

"Punish the entire clan? Hahaha..."

The man in black laughed loudly: "In order to practice, I personally transformed my loved ones into evil ghosts. Those who want to kill my nine clans, go to hell!"

"Do it! Kill him!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...!"

Amidst the sounds of ghostly howls, more than a dozen dark shadows suddenly appeared behind the man in black, and even the temperature of the surrounding air dropped by several degrees.

Afterwards, this group of ghosts roared to the sky and rushed towards Xuanjizi.

Xuanjizi looked carefully and saw that the black shadows were actually pale children who looked only seven or eight years old!
"Thirteen devils!"

"It's you! Devil Boy! I didn't expect that even a reclusive person like you would come out into the world!"

Xuanjizi was shocked. This demon boy had become famous decades ago, even older than the Taiyi Taoist master Zhao Xizheng.

It is rumored that in order to practice the secret magic, this person actually slaughtered his own people with his own hands, and selected thirteen souls of children around seven or eight years old with his own blood to practice with, which greatly increased his magic power.

One person can control thirteen devils and even suppress several monks of the same level.

Feeling the dozen or so ghost shadows attacking him, Xuanjizi cursed inwardly, but still clasped his hands together and controlled the flying sword to start strangling the group of ghost shadows.

"I've said it before, don't show off your wealth. What on earth is that kid Zheng Yongdi doing to attract such an old monster?"

"There are quite a few late-stage Qi training cultivators hiding in the entire Dayu..."

"Squeak..."

As she was speaking, she saw the third monk who was besieging her also took action.

But he slapped the spirit beast bag, and a red cloud suddenly rushed out of the spirit beast bag, making a series of strange cries and killing towards Xuanjizi.

"Spiritual insects!" The red cloud was actually a bunch of strange poisonous insects with transparent wings, which looked like ants.

In the cultivation world of Dayu, it is extremely difficult for cultivators to practice because of the lack of spiritual energy.

However, due to the low bottleneck of cultivation, the number of low-level cultivators is very large.

Because in this world, cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage are already the best.

In the entire Xuan Cang Realm, including those who are hiding, there are less than two palms of people.

Under such circumstances, there are a large number of cultivators in the late Qi training stage below the foundation building stage.

After all, if this group of cultivators in the late stage of Qi training valued their lives more and sought ways to prolong their lives, they could live for about two hundred years.

Over the past two hundred years, they have also studied other cultivation arts and magic, which has enabled them to have many methods.

Under the siege of the ghost boy and the unknown insect-controlling monk, Xuanjizi was temporarily delayed and unable to rescue other places.

“Get out of here…!”

Just then, another roar was heard.

But on the top of another mountain, a tall man with a naked upper body and bronze skin appeared.

He threw it casually, and a black light flashed by, appearing extremely secretive in the dark night.

"puff!"

A cultivator who was fighting had his entire protective shield broken before he could react. He was ripped open and smashed to the ground, deader than dead.

The black light flashed again and rushed towards another person.

Xiong Gang!

Xiong Gang, who was stationed here, had no mercy on this group of robber cultivators who came to attack him, and he used killing moves as soon as he attacked.

"Hey~!"

Almost at the same time, a shrill cry suddenly came.

But from behind him, an eagle as tall as two people flew out.

Its wingspan is five meters long, and its feathers are as thick as steel.

With a flap of its wings, a gust of wind immediately blew up from the ground.

A huge figure rose into the sky, instantly dispersing the figures of several Tribulation Cultivators.

For a moment, not only Xuanjizi and Xiong Gang took action to resist this group of wandering cultivators, but even Xu Fengxiong, Zheng Chengwen, Dai Shu and others who were originally practicing in Yuelong Palace also took action to resist this group of wandering cultivators.

More than ten of them have only been practicing for a few years, and most of them have reached the middle stage of weapon refining.

Only Xu Fengxiong has entered the late stage of Qi training.

Compared with this group of independent cultivators, the skills they practiced were more powerful, and the magic weapons in their hands were far superior to those of this group of independent cultivators. For a moment, they actually forced my sister to retreat.

There were also a few who had not arrived yet, but they died at the hands of Xu Fengxiong and others.

"Damn doll...!"

In the dark night, a burly casual cultivator glared at the young man in front of him, his eyes full of fear.

"Late stage of Qi training? How old are you? How is it possible..."

Before he could fall, Xu Fengxiong on the opposite side had already rushed up.

"Kill people if you want to, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

"Well done!"

The big man roared and attacked with both fists. At the same time, a black light flashed, and his hands seemed to be wearing a pair of iron gloves.

"I am a physical practitioner, you little brat..."

"puff!"

Before he finished speaking, Xu Fengxiong had already rushed in front of him.

He stretched out his hand and a goose-feather knife appeared in his hand, and he slashed towards him diagonally downward!
The big man blocked with his arms. Ordinary swords and guns were just like tickling him.

Before he could finish this thought, Xu Fengxiong had already chopped him down with his sword.

The whole person, including the arm, was cut into two halves by him!

This goose-feather knife was forged in a way that Xu Fengxiong specifically proposed.

It is made of star steel mixed with refined gold. It is hard and sharp, and is an extremely rare melee weapon.

At the same time, he can also inject magic power into it, turning it into a magical weapon-like existence, and use the sword to kill the enemy.

After all, Xu Fengxiong came from a martial arts family and was most accustomed to this kind of weapon and fighting style.

"His Majesty……!"

He looked back in the direction of Lingxiao Palace, then picked up the long sword without hesitation and rushed towards the direction of Lingxiao Palace.

Beside him were Zheng Chengwen, Tong Tao, Dai Shu, Lu Qing'er and others.

They formed a formation and joined forces to resist this group of independent cultivators.

"You stay here to guard, and I will go to guard His Majesty!"

"Brother Xu, I'll go with you~!"

Lu Qing'er shouted wildly, but Xu Fengxiong's figure had already slipped away and soon disappeared into the darkness.

"Brother Xu..."

Looking at Xu Fengxiong's leaving figure, Lu Qing'er remained silent.

Zheng Chengwen on the side clasped his hands together to form a fire snake, which rushed towards the wandering cultivator in the air.

Seeing that Lu Qing'er was still in a daze, he quickly shouted: "Lu Qing'er! Stop looking, kill the enemy quickly!"

"Xu Fengxiong is not a man you can covet..."

"Shut up!"

Lu Qing'er glared at Zheng Chengwen, then she clasped her hands together and produced a shiny round mirror.

The mirror surface is bright, but there is a vortex behind the mirror, which looks very strange.

As magic power was input, the mirror suddenly emitted bursts of dark yellow light.

She took out a mirror and waved it at the cultivator in mid-air.

A yellow light flashed, and a casual cultivator accidentally glanced at the light from the mirror. He suddenly felt dizzy and fell down.

"Hahaha, well done!"

Zheng Chengwen laughed loudly and immediately controlled the fire snake, which pounced fiercely on the unlucky guy, burning him into a mummy in a few breaths.

"His Majesty really likes you, and he even gave you such a treasure..."

Zheng Chengwen looked at the ancient mirror in Lu Qing'er's hand with some envy and spoke.

Lu Qing'er frowned. This magic weapon was something she accidentally encountered when she entered the palace to visit her sister, the Queen, last time.

His Majesty tested her cultivation and magic, and when he learned that her cultivation was about to enter the late stage of Qi training, he bestowed this ancient mirror on her.

At that time, she thought it was just an ordinary magic weapon.

After returning to practice, I didn't expect that it turned out to be a top-grade magical weapon with a hundred restrictions!
This is the best magic weapon!

You know, among all the monks in Yuelong Palace, only Princess Yaochi, Princess Langhuan and Xu Fengxiong have it.

And now, she also has a top-grade magical weapon.

One can imagine how important he is to Yuelong Palace and His Majesty.

but……

When she thought of His Majesty's smile at that time and the Queen's strange look, she felt her heart beat faster.

"Could it be that... Your Majesty has that intention?"

"But, but she already has a sister, the Queen, and the Queen also asked me to be close to His Majesty..."

Lu Qing'er felt nervous and suddenly remembered what the Queen said when she left the palace.

"Qing'er, His Majesty is our heaven. When you are in Tianshou Mountain, remember to get close to His Majesty. If you can be accepted into His Majesty's harem, it will be a blessing that you cannot obtain in three lifetimes..." (End of this chapter)
