Chapter 195: Tell Fang Ji to break through as soon as possible so that I can kill the first Yuan Dan!

Zheng Jun stepped on a swift meteor that transformed into a streak of azure-gold light, tearing through the sea of ​​clouds, while behind him, blood-red energy surged like the roar of a monstrous dragon.

Starting from Ziyang County, it broke through the sky all the way.

Despite this, Zheng Jun paid no attention to the surging bloodlust behind him, focusing all his energy on the gilded characters in front of him.

The purple-robed elder behind him got angry?

It doesn't matter, we'll see if they can catch up with me.

Burning one's lifeblood in vain is merely courting death.

That old man must have gone mad, otherwise he wouldn't have done that.

As long as I ignore him and focus on returning to Ningyuan County, the old man will die from exhaustion of his life essence.

Perhaps he did this because he didn't know how to face Fang Ji, the patriarch of the Fang family, so he was determined to die.

Zheng Jun shook his head and continued to focus on the gilded characters in front of him.

[Severing five acupoints allows for a surprise attack from afar; injuring ten fingers is less effective than severing one. 'Radiant Sunlight' repayment progress +2691, current repayment progress: 5000/5000.]

[Current Skill Accomplishment (Minor Success): Slaying the Dragon in the Green Waters: 4500/10000; Breaking Through the Heavenly Eye Barrier: 6613/10000.]

The gilded characters in front of Zheng Jun appeared before him, causing him to nod slightly.

Not bad.

This trip was very fruitful.

Zheng Jun hadn't seen the repayment progress increase by several thousand at once in a long time.

Today, my wish has come true.

We have to thank these martial arts masters from Lanzhou who have reached the Qi Refining stage.

I don't know what went wrong with him, but Earl Yang Jin of Hancheng is an even bigger figure.

Although Gongyang Jin had changed his title to Marquis of Hancheng under the King of Qin, Zheng Jun was now in the same camp as Emperor Yongchang, so he should still be addressed as Earl of Hancheng from the previous emperor's time.

In other words, Emperor Yongchang forgot to strip him of his title; otherwise, he should have been directly called the "Old Traitor Gongyang."

"Zheng Jun, you petty thief, you Black Mountain constable, you lowly creature, don't even think about escaping—!!!"

Just then, a thunderous boom rang in Zheng Jun's ears.

Turning around, Zheng Jun saw that the purple-robed elder had transformed into a red-robed elder, relentlessly pursuing him.

Fang Yuan's face was contorted with rage, his purple robe now soaked in blood, turning it red. His eyes were wide with fury as he charged forward with a blood-based escape technique, his speed even increasing.

"They are quite persistent."

Zheng Jun shook his head. After calculating Fang Yuan's speed and the surrounding distance, he decided not to engage Fang Yuan in a battle here and continued flying north.

This is still within Ziyang County. Now, Fang Yuan's essence blood has erupted, seemingly using some kind of demonic secret technique, and he has already reached the peak of the Tongqiao stage.

Although Zheng Jun was not afraid, he could not resolve the situation quickly and would only be bogged down.

In this way, the other cultivators would have a chance to catch up, especially the general who commands 30,000 elite Xuan Bird Guards. If he were to come in formation, he could launch an offensive comparable to a Yuan Dan Martial Saint.

Zheng Ke didn't want to get beaten up here.

If you're going to fight, then head north for a while longer.

At the very least, they need to get to Guangping County or Batang County to escape the situation where they might be ganged up on in Ziyang County.

Upon realizing this, a strange light flashed in Zheng Jun's eyes, and the 'Swift Meteor' sped up even more, continuing its escape northward.

In an instant, the distance between the houses and walls was widened again.

This scene enraged Fang Yuan even more.

"You little thief Zheng Jun, why don't you dare fight me?! Where is your courage that you showed just now?!"

Driven by impotent rage, Fang Qian had no choice but to continue the pursuit.

Whether it was a pursuit or a desperate attempt to get themselves killed, no one knew.

……

Guangping County.

Zhao Donglai was somewhat uneasy.

After all, Zhao Donglai had previously firmly rejected Gong Ming, the commander of the Lanzhou Garrison, request to enter the city, which was why he was so uneasy.

Guangping County and Batang County were not connected.

Batang County directly faces Zheng Jun's army, so it's understandable that they didn't open their gates to the inside.

But behind Guangping County is Ziyang County, which has 200,000 troops stationed there. What excuse could he possibly have for not opening the gate?

Therefore, Zhao Donglai is now extremely terrified.

I'm a little worried that Gong Ming might have escaped to Ziyang County.

If Gong Ming dies, he may be punished.

But if Gong Ming hadn't died, Zhao Donglai felt he might be doomed.

After all, Gong Ming is a martial artist at the third level of the Qi Refining Realm. He has been operating in Lanzhou for many years and has a group of followers. If they make trouble for him, he will suffer a lot.

Therefore, Zhao Donglai is very anxious now.

Have no idea.

Zhao Donglai was sweating profusely, and just then, he suddenly sensed a violent fluctuation of true energy coming from the southern horizon.

"Ok?"

Zhao Donglai was taken aback.

He looked as far as he could see and saw two streaks of light tearing through the clouds like meteors falling to earth. The light in front was a blue-gold stream of light carrying a sharp blade intent, while behind, amidst the surging blood and evil, he could vaguely hear Fang Yuan's mad roar!

"It's Zheng Jun and Fang Yuan!"

Zhao Donglai's pupils shrank: "How did Fang Yuan become like this? And why is Zheng Jun heading north?"

In an instant, Zhao Donglai's mind began to race.

It seems that Gong Ming is dead.

Otherwise, Zheng Jun would not have headed north.

Was Fang Yuan so erratic because Zheng Jun did something?

Does Zheng Jun's move north to avoid battle mean he couldn't defeat Fang Yuan?

For a moment, Zhao Donglai was filled with a myriad of thoughts.

The command flag fluttered in the strong wind, and Zhao Donglai suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

He felt that he might be able to make a move!
Making a move at this moment would both curry favor with the Fang family and demonstrate loyalty to the King of Qin.

As for really killing Zheng Jun? That's impossible. Just state your position and then pursue him from behind.

How could he possibly have that ability?

If he had the ability to kill Zheng Jun, he would be one of the top generals under His Highness the Prince of Qin by now.

With this thought in mind, Zhao Donglai suddenly leaped into the air, his true essence surging like boiling water, and roared fiercely towards the direction of the azure-gold escape light: "Zheng Jun, you traitor! You killed my colleagues in Lanzhou and slaughtered officials of the imperial court. I, Zhao Donglai, swear today that I will fight you to the death!"

Before he finished speaking, he produced a gilded bronze mace, its powerful literary aura soaring into the sky.

Zheng Jun, who was speeding along, suddenly turned his head, and Zhao Donglai's fierce but cowardly face was reflected in his dark pupils.

'Where did this stray dog ​​come from?'

A thought inexplicably arose in Zheng Jun's mind; the blade had not yet been drawn, but the killing intent had already arisen.

The next instant, the intent of the Green Water Blade was activated.

"Where did this stray dog ​​come from, daring to make such a racket here?"

Zheng Jun snorted coldly, and the Dragon Abyss Blade slashed diagonally upwards, the blade light exploding into a blue-gold crescent moon!

"Um?!"

The moment Zhao Donglai's gilded bronze mace touched the blade, it was obliterated inch by inch, and his protective aura shattered like thin paper. He was immediately terrified and hurriedly cried out, "Grand Commander, spare my life! Grand Commander, spare my life!"

Zhao Donglai's pleas for mercy were clearly of no use. The remaining force of the blade energy had not dissipated and it cut into his chest cavity from his right shoulder, pulverizing half of his spine along with his dantian!

"You and I……"

Zhao Donglai fell to the ground, blood spurting from all seven orifices, his last remaining consciousness filled with regret.

The blade light was clearly hundreds of feet away, how could it arrive in an instant?

Is this... the strength of the number one martial arts prodigy in the Northern Frontier?

how could this be...

"boom!"

When his mangled body crashed down the gate tower of the prefectural governor's mansion, Zheng Jun had already swept over the city wall.

Fang Yuan, who was chasing from behind, was furious, his eyes bloodshot, and he roared, "You brat! You killed my Fang family disciples again?!"

"If a stray dog ​​blocks the road, just kill it with one blow."

Zheng Jun flicked away the blood droplets from his blade, his sneer mingling with his true energy that reverberated for miles: "Old dog, today I've killed seven of your Qi Refining cultivators from Lanzhou. I'm afraid that's reduced Lanzhou's Qi Refining cultivators by a third now, isn't it? I'm in a good mood. If you obediently go back, I'll allow you to live out your old age in peace."

"Don't think about it!"

Fang Yuan was so enraged that he was forced to cough up chunks of his internal organs!
However, Fang Yuan did not stop and continued his pursuit.

Upon seeing this, Zheng Jun shook his head and continued to speed towards Batang County, still clinging to the roof.

He wanted to repeat his old trick.

Let's see if Zhang Wen, the son-in-law of the Fang family in Batang County, will come to Fang Yuan's rescue.

If Zheng Jun comes out to rescue Fang Yuan, then it won't be Zheng Jun breaking his promise.

Zheng Jun then accepted Batang County.

"boom!"

The air surged and headed towards Batang County.

Two hours later, Zhang Wen from Batang County also felt these two powerful auras.

"Brother-in-law, it's the aura of our Fifth Great-Uncle!"

Beside Zhang Wen, a member of the Fang clan from the Outer Gang faction whispered to him, "There's another one, it's Zheng Jun's aura!"

"It seems that my ancestor Fang was indeed powerful, actually managing to chase Zheng Jun all the way here!"

There was a hint of excitement in his words.

Looking up to the south, they saw two figures rapidly approaching: "Brother-in-law, please make your move! If we can kill Zheng Jun here, we will be heroes of the family!"

"wrong."

Zhang Wen frowned; he felt that things weren't so simple.

As a martial artist who had reached the Qi Opening stage, Zhang Wentai knew the strength of his fifth great-uncle, Fang Yuan.

Even if one were to burn oneself to reach the peak of the Qi Opening stage, something still wouldn't feel right.

Zheng Jun is not that weak.

This is something Zhang Wen has always insisted on.

Zhang Wen believed that Zheng Jun's strength was comparable to that of Fang Ji, the patriarch of the Fang family. How could he possibly back down just because Fang Yuan suddenly became powerful?

'Could it be that Marquis Dingqin is...?'

Zhang Wen's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately said in a deep voice, "Without my order, no one is allowed to open the great formation!"

"what?"

Zhang Wen's actions greatly surprised the Fang family member, whose face then turned angry: "Zhang Wen, what are you doing?! If it weren't for my Fang family, how could you be so clever? Now, you actually dare to do this treacherous thing?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wen coldly glanced at the Fang family member, then casually waved his hand, unleashing a burst of true energy that instantly suppressed him.

joke.

I can't beat Zheng Jun, but I can't beat you, a mere Outer Gang?

Do you think everyone is the number one martial arts prodigy in the Northern Frontier, capable of severing the Tongqiao meridian with external force?

"Pass on my order: even if Ancestor Fang Yuan begs for help, do not open the formation. Anyone who disobeys will be executed!"

Zhang Wen said coldly, his killing intent rising.

……

Why is there no movement from Batang County?

Zheng Jun floated in the air in front of the Batang County seat, looking at the heavily guarded and motionless Batang County, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Zheng Jun lightly touched the air with his toes, and his figure suddenly stopped.

He glanced back at the walls behind him, engulfed in flames, and a mocking smile curled at the corner of his lips.

It's time to send this old dog on its way.

He used it to catch fish all the way, so it's time to give the bait a proper account.

"Death, little thief!"

The bronze abacus beads embedded in Fang Yuan's chest cavity burst forth with a blinding blood-red light, and the Sixty-Four Hexagrams of Life and Death crashed down. Hanging upside down like a black cage, the hexagrams, as they rotated, transformed the surrounding ten miles into an abacus prison. Each hexagram carried with it the magnanimous literary spirit and the annihilating demonic light accumulated by the Fang family over a century!

The air currents surged, demonstrating immense power!
Although Zheng Jun had consumed a lot of his energy along the way, Fang Yuan still possessed the strength of a near-first-class Qi Refining Peak under the burning power!
Zheng Jun clenched his fist and threw a punch. The flowing shadow condensed into a black jade seal, which collided with the sound of metal and stone shattering!

The jade seal began to dissipate the instant it was formed, turning into a black Great Wall that stretched across the sky, forcefully resisting the ever-shrinking divination plate. Meanwhile, the Dragon Abyss Blade in Zheng Jun's right hand quietly swirled with azure gold!
"Is that all you have?"

Zheng Jun chuckled and urged the swift meteor, his figure piercing through the gaps in the divination symbols like a swimming fish.

As the blade swept past the wall, the azure dragon suddenly transformed into a mist of water, corroding the blood-red abacus beads with a sizzling sound!
"Stop being so arrogant!"

Fang Yuan frantically made hand seals, and twelve of his natal abacus beads burst forth from his flesh and blood, forming a nine-palace killing array. A phantom image of Fang's ancestor appeared in the center of the divination plate, wielding a bronze abacus and shouting fiercely: "Traitorous minister, be executed!"

"Using your ancestors to intimidate me?"

Zheng Jun's third eye suddenly split open in the golden pattern between his eyebrows, and the divine light of his third eye pierced through the barrier, burning the illusory image like the blazing sun.

Before Fang Yuan's horrified eyes, his sword strike suddenly transformed into three afterimages!
The Green Water Slaying Dragon cut through the foundation of the divination plate, the Radiant Sunlight Melted the Bronze Abacus Beads, and the final strike lightly touched Fang Yuan's brow!

"clang!"

However, the measuring ruler suddenly burst out from Fang Yuan's crown chakra, emitting a wave. This was Fang's last life-saving artifact.

Fang Yuan's aura was rapidly fading. Although he possessed the strength of a peak first-class Qi Refining Realm cultivator and had exchanged several blows with Zheng Jun, under extreme exhaustion, external things were ultimately just external things and not his own abilities.

but……

There's one last chance.

Fang Yuan's face was contorted with rage as he charged at Zheng Jun, yelling, "Die!"

"Using the fish you caught all the way..."

Zheng Jun suddenly withdrew his strength and retreated, looking at Fang Yuan who was charging at him frantically, and couldn't help but sneer: "This farce should end now!"

The Dragon Abyss Blade suddenly erupted with an unprecedented golden light, and a celestial phenomenon of a great sun patrolling the sky appeared behind Zheng Jun!

The divination plate formed from the burning essence of Fang Yuan melted away like spring snow under the overwhelming power of heaven, and the twelve natal abacus beads were successively blasted into bronze powder.

"No...my power, my ancestors..."

Fang Yuan was horrified to discover that his power was waning, while Zheng Jun's blade had already fallen!

The moment the blade flashed across his neck, Fang Yuan's cloudy pupils reflected the tightly closed city gates and the great formation of Batang County.

He only realized in his dying moments that the pursuit he had risked his life for was nothing but a joke.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Fang Yuan, a fourth-level martial artist who thought he could fight Zheng Jun and had been chasing Zheng Jun for a whole day, was killed by Zheng Jun in just over ten moves on the ground of Batang County!
It wasn't until blood and flesh rained down that Zhang Wen, in the city of Batang, came to his senses.

He stared blankly at the arrogant Zheng Jun, a chill creeping into his heart.

"Fang Yuan was actually killed by Zheng Jun in less than twenty rounds. Does that mean Zheng Jun is even stronger than the Ancestor?"

A chill ran down Zhang Wen's spine, but he quickly realized he might have misjudged the situation; the ancestor's strength was probably similar to Zheng Jun's.

Thinking about this, Zhang Wen became even more terrified.

After all, Zheng Jun is only twenty-two years old and has only reached the fourth stage of the Qi Refining Realm.

What if Zheng Jun reaches the peak of the Qi Opening stage?
Zhang Wen felt a tremor in his heart.

At that moment, Zheng Jun flicked away the blood droplets from his blade and chuckled at Zhang Wen, who was staring in disbelief on the city wall: "If the Earl of Hancheng comes with his troops, just tell him that I will come to collect his head another day."

"As for Fang Ji?"

"Tell him that you hope the medicine Qin Shuren gave him will really work, and that it would be best if he could break through to the Yuan Dan realm. That way, he can become the first Yuan Dan Martial Saint I kill."

After saying that, Zheng Jun ignored Zhang Wen and transformed into a streak of azure-gold light, fleeing towards Ningyuan County, leaving behind the taciturn Zhang Wen.

Zheng Jun is being far too arrogant.

But where in the world is there no arrogant person who isn't rampant?

Zhang Wen is now vaguely worried.

He was worried...

Could it be that the old ancestor really can't beat Zheng Jun?
