Chapter 179 The Beginning of an Unsolved Case (asking for monthly tickets)

Last time, in the outer city of Cangzhou, Gao Jian had seen Shui Cangcang take action from afar.

At that time, Shui Cangcang was also in the second realm, and his opponent was also in the second realm.

But Shui Cangcang killed the other person with just a wave of his hand, and it looked like the man had killed himself.

Well, the problem is coming.

What kind of force caused this result?
Gao Jian felt that his observation ability was already quite outstanding. At least he could easily discover the opponent's background in many things, perceive the differences inside through the same form of expression, and then discover the opponent's weaknesses.

After so many fights, Gao Jian is still quite confident in his eyesight.

but……

Can't see.

I couldn’t see it the first time, and I couldn’t see it the second time either.

There are only consequences, no causes.

I don’t know what caused the consequences, I can only see Zuo Xiu flying backwards.

But Shui Cangcang is not finished yet.

He held up a finger.

One stroke.

It was clearly just a scratch with the finger.

However, something that was unstoppable and unavoidable flashed by in mid-air.

Blood was spilled! In the blink of an eye, a large gash appeared on Zuo Si's chest as he was unable to move!

There was no way to defend himself, Zuo Si was trapped in place and had no ability to resist at all.

A lot of magical weapons were activated from his body!

There are probably more than a dozen protective jade pendants, heart-protecting mirrors, protective amulets, and all kinds of magic weapons. If they were all activated, Gao Jian would probably need dozens of cuts to cut through them.

All these things were activated, trying to protect the vital parts of the body, but they were unable to do so.

All the defenses were shattered in just one blow and turned into garbage.

Then, only Zuo Chi was left.

Zuo Chi and his group of gods were frozen in mid-air, unable to move or mobilize the power in their bodies. In fact, he was the one who suffered the most from the blockade.

Mobilizing a group of gods shows that Zuo Chi himself is actually very weak. Although there are many gods, they are just at the level of ordinary third realms. When dealing with other people, he can easily crush them in terms of numbers and quantity.

But when facing Shui Cangcang, if the absolute strength is not enough, then no matter how many there are, it will be meaningless.

Shui Cangcang still stroked it so lightly.

In an instant, Zuo Chi was severely injured, and he flew backwards, pushed high into the sky, covered in blood and wounds.

The current situation can only be described as 'weird'.

There's nothing wrong with calling it a horror movie. It's impossible to understand what's happening or who's doing it.

If there was energy emanating from Shui Cangcang's body, and we knew what he was manipulating, or if the heaven and earth itself reacted or something like that, it would be easy to explain.

But there is not even that.

There is no trace at all, there is no fluctuation in the energy itself, no change in physical properties, and no divine will controlling it.

"Hey, what happened? Don't you have information? Tell me." Gao Jian stood two miles away and poked Ximen Gong, who was standing there like a fool.

Ximen Gongze shook his head: "I don't know either... Didn't I say it before? Except for the Shui family, everyone else will come to us for calculations."

"Did I say that?" Gao Jian recalled.

I really said that! (See Chapter 175 for details)
"Tsk, but never mind. It doesn't matter." Gao Jian shook his head. It didn't matter. It didn't affect his plan.

However, although Shui Cangcang's strength was expected, it was still beyond Gao Jian's imagination.

"Now that these three have been eliminated, it's time to go to the next place, right? Now we should be able to directly solve the disaster of death?" Shui Cangcang landed next to Gao Jian and said so.

As if strolling in the garden, the three young masters of the Zuo family had fallen to the ground. Although they were not dead, their injuries were very serious and they had no ability to resist.

"Wait a minute, I still have something to do." Gao Jian walked forward.

His goal was not to seriously injure them. Although this would eliminate three people, they would still be alive.

"What else do you want to do?" Shui Cangcang looked at Gao Jian in confusion.

At the same time, Shui Cangcang was thinking about something in his eyes.

In fact, it was not just Gao Jian who was surprised. Shui Cangcang also saw something different just now.

Gao Jian's use of the Thunder Dragon just now was actually quite amazing, and it completely overturned his perception of warriors.

Admittedly, this was actually because of the treasure, and also because Ximen Gong was assisting.

But even so, a warrior who has not opened his Qi Sea, even if he has a treasure that can control wind and thunder, can he control it so easily and simply?
Controlling Qi is a very profound skill that requires a lifetime of study. The subtlety of many techniques lies in weaving Qi of different properties.

The more and more complex the properties of Qi that are manipulated, the more complex and magical the spells that can be woven will be, and the higher the upper limit will be.

Of course, this also depends on the level of the creative spell. There will also be some rubbish spells that are very complicated, but because of internal conflicts, their efficiency is too low, and they take up a lot of resources but have mediocre effects.

But no matter what, for the user himself, being able to control more energy must be a huge advantage.

This kind of advantage is usually manifested in some Taoist sects like Taoist priests and shamans. For example, Zuo Si is able to manipulate the energy of heaven and earth in a large range. They do not specialize in physical body and martial arts, but spend most of their energy to train their ability to control "energy".

As for Gao Jian, as a warrior, his martial arts are obviously quite outstanding, but his control over Qi is not inferior to Zuo Si at all. He can even control the wind and clouds to form a thunder dragon, and rush out with the clouds.

This is a warrior!
Doesn't he have any shortcomings?
But if Gao Jian knew what Shui Cangcang was thinking, he would just laugh out loud.

Just inside the county town where the boat had been before, he had used the rusty knife to bring about the clarity of his heart, reflecting Zuo Si's moves at that time, and had taken away Zuo Si's control over the energy of heaven and earth from the front, turning the opponent's magic into a blessing for himself.

Although this can only be done with a rusty knife, which Gao Jian cannot do under normal circumstances, this is enough to show that Gao Jian has reached a very excellent level among the four realms in terms of manipulating Qi.

Although Gao Jian had never learned anything specifically about controlling Qi, the method of controlling thunder Qi from Dansha's Dragon Thunder Charm, the subtle control of the Five Elements Qi by the Five Elements Genesis and Control, and the skills in the Xuanhua Tongmen Da Dao Song itself all gave Gao Jian an extremely high upper limit in controlling Qi.

Just as Gao Jian was surprised by Shui Cangcang, Shui Cangcang was also surprised by what Gao Jian showed.

As for Ximen Gong, he still doesn't quite understand what the two people are doing.

He just knew he won.

He couldn't understand what either Gao Jian or Shui Cangcang were doing, so he simply chose to remain silent.

However, after everything was settled, he saw Gao Jian walking towards the three young masters of the Zuo family for no apparent reason.

"Master Gao! They can't resist anymore, please give them some space. I know you have a grudge against the Zuo family, but don't insult them too harshly!" Ximen Gong shouted. Yes, Ximen Gong actually thought that Gao Jian might have gone to humiliate the Zuo family.

This is certainly very satisfying, but it is really a bit tasteless and can easily lower their image. It is only natural that the intensity of the Zuo family's revenge will increase afterwards, and it is even possible that the other party's close relatives will come forward to kill Gao Jian.

Humiliation is a very heavy thing in the Divine Dynasty's values...

The difference between honor and disgrace is no less important than that between life and death.

"Don't worry, do I look like such a bad person? I just sent them to a safe place." Gao Jian waved his hand and signaled to Shui Cangcang and Ximen Gong behind him.

Shui Cangcang looked indifferent.

But Ximen Gong still looked at Gao Jian worriedly, fearing that he might do something big.

If he really meant to humiliate others... then I am his teammate. What if the Ximen family is implicated?

As for Gao Jian, he walked easily to the sides of the three young masters of the Zuo family.

"Hey, you three, do you remember me?"

The three of them gnashed their teeth, healed their wounds, and ignored Gao Jian.

What? Did Gao Jian really dare to kill the three of them? Not to mention how to deal with it afterwards, even if Gao Jian was really crazy, there was still the examiner watching him in the sky.

I heard that the examiner is an eighth-level realm master. There is no way Gao Jian would take action under the nose of such a strong man.

As for the humiliation...

Damn it, I will definitely get it back later.

"Three of you, you should have some trump cards, right? With the way you have shown, there is no way you can fight against Shui Cangcang, but you dare to come here with such confidence, you must be sure of something."

Gao Jian walked up and said so.

"Or do you not have any trump cards? Do you simply think you can do it? I don't think that's right. You have been with Shui Cangcang for such a long time, you should understand the difference between each other. You have fought with me before, so I think you also understand the comparison between my strength and yours, but you are still fearless."

"You're unwilling to withdraw from the Imperial College selection just because we attacked you like this. Right?"

Gao Jian walked forward while talking.

Every word of these words hit the three members of the Zuo family hard.

Although they remained calm, Zuo Xiu, who was the most impatient, had already turned red in the ears.

But at this time, Gao Jian changed the subject: "So, I am not going to eliminate you."

"Oh? Are you playing? Hey, Gao Jian, we don't have time to play!" Shui Cangcang waved his hands from a distance: "That's enough, what's so fun about it!"

"Don't worry! I'll just give you a chance." Gao Jian turned around and responded.

"You three, I'll find a place for you to recuperate. After you recover, I'll show you my trump card. It can be a sneak attack or a head-on attack. Anyway, when the time comes, let me see your real abilities." Gao Jian said.

Following Gao Jian's words, Zuo Si opened his eyes, which were somewhat bloodshot: "Gao Jian...you will regret this."

Obviously, he was angry.

Gao Jian's statement actually means "capture and release several times".

What he wants to defeat is not himself, but his own heart!

Even if it was once, twice, three times, or four times, he wanted to beat me until I was convinced? He wanted me to use all my abilities, to make sure I had no excuses for losing, to make me completely defeated, to cast a dark cloud over my heart...

This is blatant suppression!

Gao Jian wants to suppress Zuo Si's Taoism and turn him into Zuo Si's inner demon! ?
When he thought of this, Zuo Si became furious, his eyes were bloodshot.

In this way, Gao Jian doesn't need to kill them, he can also make them disabled, or at least hinder their path of cultivation, so that when they break through later, Gao Jian will pop up in their minds.

In the distance, Ximen Gong and Shui Cangcang seemed to realize Gao Jian’s plan.

Shui Cangcang showed a playful expression and said nothing more.

This is very interesting.

How interesting it would be to break the Dao hearts of the three young masters of the Zuo family and turn oneself into their inner demon? It was only natural to take some risks for this.

Besides, the risk is not that big and there is no pressure on him at all.

But Ximen Gong did not continue to say those spoiling words at this time. He was breathing heavily, as if he was suppressing some emotions in his heart.

In fact, he didn't suppress it at all, because it could be clearly seen that Ximen Gong's ears and face were visibly red.

Why is it red?

He began to realize what true "power" looked like.

Gao Jian and Shui Cangcang took him to places that he could not normally go to, and saw scenery that he could not normally see.

Even the young masters of the Zuo family, who usually didn't dare to look up, became part of the scenery.

But the three members of the Zuo family obviously didn’t think so.

"You...will regret it. I can tell you that you did take advantage of the sneak attack. If we let us recover from our injuries and go all out, neither you nor Shui Cangcang will be our match."

"That's great. I'm waiting. But you have to remember, after saying something like this, if you lose again, you will have no excuse. You know the consequences then." Gao Jian said, walked up to the three people, picked up the three seriously injured people, packed them together, and blew a horse whistle.

Zou Long arrived immediately.

After hanging the three people on the back of Zou Long's horse, Gao Jian turned around and waved to Shui Cangcang and Ximen Gong: "I'll be back soon, at most in a quarter of an hour, you guys wait for me for a while, or just go, I'll come back later!"

"Okay, then we'll leave first. If you come slowly, I will deal with the disaster myself, and the credit will not be yours. Don't blame me if you fail the selection!" Shui Cangcang waved his hand and left without waiting for Gao Jian to reply.

"Master Shui, wait for me!" Ximen Gong also hurriedly chased after him.

Gao Jian didn't say anything, but just looked at the three members of the Zuo family.

Is Gao Jian’s intention to destroy their determination to follow the Tao?
Bullshit, what's the point of destroying one's mind? Gao Jian wants to kill people.

But we can’t kill them now because the examiner is watching us from the sky.

So a little cover-up is needed.

A little bit... 'crown-sounding'.

There are also some 'alibi'.

We need to make this matter into an 'unsolved case'.

Gao Jian drove the walking dragon and soon arrived at a cave.

These are caves that can be found everywhere on the ancient battlefield. They are caused by the surging of earth energy. Yellow clouds are blowing in the face, and there are obviously some tributaries of the Yellow Spring below.
