Chapter 397: Escape
Although demons and ghosts were rampant in The Great Qian Dynasty, not many demons and ghosts have dared to invade the Imperial City since ancient times.
First, the National Teacher, who was known to predict the fate of the world, often killed potential threats when they appeared.
Second, there is the formidable Divine Guardian who guarded the Imperial City with unfathomable strength. No demon dared to touch his edge regardless of life and death, even if the Divine General is already old, even if he has not made a move for a long time!
The second ghost-faced man, who was seriously injured, looked at the old man and said solemnly, If we join forces, we might be able to fight against him!
The old man with white hair and black beard remained indifferent and just looked up quietly.
However, the blurry black figure on the side shook his head, If he wasnt afraid to use his full power and risk destroying Imperial City, you wouldnt have made it back alive.
The second Ghost-Faced Man was shaken by these words. He had been completely powerless in front of the old man. Now he just learned that the old man hadnt even used his full strength?
This was ridiculous!
The blurry figure flickered slightly and continued, When the ancient gods and demons invaded the Imperial City, they encountered the Demon Slaying Department. If those gods and demons hadnt run fast enough, the streets of the Imperial City would have been stained with their blood long ago.
Do you know why its called the Demon Slaying Department? Its because its purpose is to control and kill gods and demons.
There is no doubt about the strength of the gods and demons. The aim of the Burial Heaven Organization is to use the powerful gods and demons to overthrow the rule of The Great Qian Dynasty and cleanse the world again.
However, even in the face of powerful gods and demons, the old man down below had the ability to kill them!
In the pinnacle of the Great Qian Dynasty Divine Martial Arts, the title of being at the peak of strength was not just a legend.
I am already very old. It would be too inconvenient for you to stand there and talk. Why dont we come down and talk about it. The Divine Guardian gestured with his right hand.
The bodies of the Ghost Buddha and others seemed to be out of control, suddenly falling like shooting stars, and even the semi-transparent figure of Tear Demons was no exception.
Despite their desperate efforts, they couldnt stop their descent.
In the face of the absolute disparity in strength, all struggles were futile!
At that moment, the blurry black figure intervened. A black mist appeared in the air where they were falling. They fell into the black mist, and their figures disappeared.
Seeing this, Deng Mo and the others looked around anxiously.
The old man with white hair and black beard gave a slight glance, and his body disappeared from the original place.
When he reappeared, he was in the air above a mountain forest thousands of miles away.
He gently pushed down his right palm.
The mountains and forests were destroyed, and the figures of Ghost Buddha and others appeared again.
With a single blow, the old man had shattered the bodies of Ghost Buddha and others into pieces!
The Divine Guardian looked at the shattered figures below the ruined mountain forest, and frowned slightly. I guess my age is catching up with me; I actually misjudged.
As the words fell, the shattered bodies of Ghost Buddha and others shook for a while and then dissipated like smoke.
These people were clearly not the real ones, but some kind of illusion!
Immortal Technique, Dream of a Vermilion Bird. Break! With the last word, the old man opened his eyes again, and the surrounding scene changed back to the Demon Slaying Department.
It turned out that everything that had just happened was just an illusion.
Deng Mo and the others were brought back to reality with this Break. They hurriedly looked around, but there was no trace of Ghost Buddha and others.
When did we fall under the illusion? War God Ning Zhan frowned.
On the side, Mad Bloade Zhen Tianyi also showed a pensive expression.
They were all martial artists who had not mastered soul cultivation. In the face of such illusionary attacks, they really had no effective countermeasures.
Chief Deng Mo practised the Hundred Ghosts Dao Lineage. After carefully recalling it, he came up with a guess, Im afraid that when we arrived at the Demon Slaying Department and saw those few people stepping out of the void, we were already under the illusion.
Was it that blurry black figure? Ning Zhan and the others also realized.
The illusion that can make the Divine Guardian fall into the trap shows the strength of that blurry black shadow!
If it werent for the Divine Guardian breaking the illusion, they would have most likely died under the illusion.
Divine Guardian, the thieves have escaped. Shall we continue the chase? Deng Mo landed next to the old man with white hair and black beard and asked respectfully.
The Divine Guardian raised his head and looked up into the sky. As the Tear Demon left, the red mist that shrouded the night also dissipated, but its lingering effects were far from gone.
He shook his head and said, They cant be caught now. Just catch all the little fries that escaped from the Nine-Fold Prison. For those we cant catch, execute them on the spot. Make sure that their after death divine powers do not harm the people in the city.
But what about those on the seventh floor? Deng Mo hesitated.
Thats that old mans business. Just deliver this message to the Heavenly Tower, the Divine Guardian said these words and turned to leave with his hands behind his back.
The old man he mentioned was, of course, the National Teacher of Heavenly Tower.
I understand. Deng Mo clenched his fists and watched the departing figure of the old man.
At the top of the Heavenly Tower, the figures of Xu Lexian, Fei Xun, and Yang Qian appeared out of nowhere in the main hall.
Xu Lexian said, Those thieves took away the eldest senior brother.
Hmm. The Heavenly Tower National Teacher dressed in white nodded slightly, then looked to the south.
There was chaos in the Imperial City. The reason why the people from Grand Literature Academy didnt take action was naturally because they had a mission.
The scenes the Ghost Buddha saw on the sixth floor of the Nine-Fold Prison were illusions created by the combined efforts of the three brothers. The purpose was to mislead the Ghost Buddha to another dimension on the seventh floor and take away the senior brother who had been imprisoned for a long time.
However, Master, after the Eldest Senior Brother entered the Academy Palace, he soon became insane. He even lost his mind and wanted to enter the Imperial Palace to assassinate the Emperor, claiming that it was for the survival of the human race for another hundred years.
Then he was suppressed by you and was put on the seventh floor of the Nine-Fold Prison. Now the eldest senior brother is out of prison and has been taken away by thieves. Wont there be any problems? Xu Lexian touched his two small beards and asked.
He has reached a dead end himself, and the only way to get out is to find another way. It might not be a bad thing to let him go on an adventure this time, the Heavenly Tower National Teacher replied indifferently.
But what if the emperor asks us for an explanation? Yang Qian asked curiously.
The one responsible for escorting the demon and the ghost to the Nine-Fold Prison was the Prison Division, and the old man from the Demon Slaying Department who failed to stop the thieves from escaping has nothing to do with us. Even if an explanation is needed, its not our problem.
The three students suddenly understood.
Xu Lexian nodded in surprise and said, But I didnt expect even the Divine General to make a mistake. Are those thieves who came to raid the Imperial Capital Ninefold Prison really so formidable?
The National Teacher of Heavenly Tower did not answer, his expression was somewhat profound.
At this moment, Fei Xun expressed his concern, The plague spread by the Tear Demon in the Imperial City is extremely severe. The Imperial Citys royal physicians may be powerless.
Do we have to he began.
Xu Lexian interrupted, The Imperial Doctors may not have a solution, but someone will find a way.
Senior Brother, who are you talking about? Fei Xun asked curiously.
Junior Brother Fei, could it be that youve forgotten how our little Junior Brother sought enlightenment in the Literature Saint Dao Lineage? It was through medical skills.
