Please call me Dadaozu

Chapter 195: It’s not because of the oath, but because of the promise I made (4000)

Thousands of miles away from the Black Corner Tower, in the jungle.

A stream flows slowly, the water is clear, winding around the ancient forest like a jade belt.

And under the stream, in the newly opened cave, a slender figure stood on the ground.

Blood was flowing from the corners of Zhang Yuanzhu's mouth, staining his red robe red.

He carried the girl on his back, came to the wall of the cave, and put her down.

With a wave of his hand, bright pearls were embedded in the wall, dispelling the darkness in the cave and bringing light.

It also revealed the embarrassed look of the two people.

Xie Beiling's face was pale, her black skirt was stained with blood, and she leaned weakly against the wall of the cave.

"Brother Dao, how is your injury?"

The girl's voice was weak, but her eyes showed concern.

She saw the last beam of mysterious light pierce her palm, pass through the golden bell, and hit the boy's chest.

Zhang Yuanzhu stretched out his hand, revealing two deep scars that could be seen to the bone. Drops of blood kept dripping, staining the ground beneath his feet.

At the same time, the chest glowed, and a moon disk flew out, casting silver rays of light.

However, a pit appeared in the middle of the lunar disk, with cracks in it.

"The Moon Disk blocked the last ray of mysterious light."

As the words fell, his double pupils turned into a blooming green light, and a rich vitality filled his eyes and spread to every part of his body.

The blood stopped flowing, the muscles began to move, and the skin reappeared.

Stab it!

The scars on his palms reappeared, and a trace of mysterious light emerged, competing with the vitality and resisting the recovery of the injuries.

Zhang Yuanzhu had an indifferent expression, and the two pupils in his eyes were connected like a huge blue sun, and his vitality became more and more intense.

Repair and destruction were repeated dozens of times before the injury was completely healed.

Then, the young man looked at the beautiful woman in black dress, frowning slightly, because the other party was seriously injured.

He took out pills and elixirs for healing injuries from his storage bag and placed them in front of the woman.

"These pills and elixirs can definitely heal your injuries. Fellow Daoist, you can give them a try."

Xie Beiling tried to raise her hand, but she couldn't move it.
A hint of helplessness flashed in her beautiful eyes, and her red lips opened slightly.

"Brother Dao, I am exhausted and in trouble."

Zhang Yuanzhu nodded, having heard the woman's metaphor.

The outstretched hand waved, and the jade bottle opened automatically. Pills flew out and came to the girl's mouth.

The woman pursed her red lips slightly, with a complicated look in her eyes. The other person really looked like a person who practiced asceticism, without any lustful intentions.

He opened his teeth, swallowed the pills and elixirs in one gulp, and began to recover from his injuries.

The wound on the chest began to heal.

However, the girl's expression became more bitter. After she regained some strength, she took out a few special pills from her bosom and swallowed them.

When Zhang Yuanzhu saw that the girl was beginning to recover, he sat cross-legged on the ground and took out a golden bell from his arms.

Unlike the Moon Disk which was slightly damaged, the Golden Light Bell was completely pierced and could no longer be used.

Call ~
Pity.

He used this golden bell quite easily, but he didn't expect it to be useless now.

Place the golden bell in front of you and put the moon disk into the storage bag.

He took out a pitch-black jade slip from his arms.

This is the only gain on the second floor of the Black Corner Tower.

He raised his hand and placed the jade slip between his eyebrows. Lines of words and pictures appeared in his mind.

After a moment, Zhang Yuanzhu put down the jade slip and fell into deep thought.

The jade slip records a secret technique.

Eyes of Nirvana!

Absorbing Yin energy and forging pupil techniques, wherever his gaze went, black light bloomed, grass and trees withered, and all life was extinguished.

This is a secret technique for attacking the enemy.

Unfortunately, now is not the time to practice.

The young man carefully put away the jade slip that recorded the pupil technique.

Then, he supported his chin with one hand and began to recall what had just happened.

What is certain is that Jindan Zhenjun will definitely not be able to live for such a long time, even if the demon race has a longer lifespan.

Therefore, the existence on the third floor of the Black Horn Tower is definitely not the Black Horn True Lord, or it is not the real Black Horn True Lord.

This can be seen from the opponent's "weak" offensive means.

Yes, it is weak. Compared with the Golden Core True Lord, the rays of mysterious light are simply funny.

If the real Black Horn Lord were to be resurrected, no matter how weak or powerless he was, the two of them would not be able to leave the Black Horn Tower.

You must know how powerful Jindan Zhenjun is.

Even the few words recorded in the Zhuoyang Dharma Lineage were enough to shock Zhang Yuanzhu.

Opening up secret realms, roaring and shattering mountains and rivers, and even involving the laws.

In his opinion, Jindan Zhenjun is no different from immortals and gods except for his lifespan.

Since he is not the Golden Core True Lord, can he kill him with his current means?

Zhang Yuanzhu's eyes were cold and murderous.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, making his expression even colder.

Time passes minute by minute.

塔~
The crisp sound of footsteps broke the silence of the cave and woke up the boy.

Xie Beiling walked slowly to Zhang Yuanzhu, sat down cross-legged, and looked at the golden bell piercing the ground.

"Brother Dao, thank you for saving me during my trip to the Black Corner Tower."

She stretched out her delicate hand, and a golden bell of similar appearance appeared between her fingers.

"Because of me, the Golden Light Bell was damaged. Brother Dao, please use my Candlelight Bell first."

As the words fell, Xie Beiling had already removed the mark on the candlelight clock and placed it in front of the young man.

Zhang Yuanzhu did not pick up the candlelight clock, but turned his gaze to the girl.

The opponent's face was still pale, his magic power was shallow, and his blood was low.

"Fellow Daoist, how are your injuries?"

"Half of the black horn has completely merged into this body, causing a mutation. My magic power is depleted, my blood is dried up, and I will have no fighting power for a short time."

Xie Beiling looked calm, as if he was not describing his physical condition, with a sense of indifference.

In fact, the situation was even worse than she described. A token left by the True Lord had injured her chest, and her body was half disabled.

Zhang Yuanzhu was silent. He reached out his hand, grabbed the candlelight bell, and began to refine it directly.

Since the other party is in such a state, he can only rely on himself for the rest of the journey.

Even the method just envisioned has to be started over again.

And every improvement in combat power is important to him.

When the girl saw the other party start to refine the magic weapon, she stretched out her hand and picked up the broken golden bell.

Looking at the crack that penetrated through, a slight softening appeared on her pretty face:

"Brother Dao, I will put away the Golden Light Bell for now. When my magic power recovers, I will recast it for you."

"it is good."

Zhang Yuanzhu nodded.

The magic power in the dantian surged and continuously flowed into the candlelight bell, being refined with all its strength.

A stick of incense has passed.

thump~
A bell rang out,
The golden bell trembled, emitting golden light.

Zhang Yuanzhu rubbed the candlelight clock with his palm and nodded with satisfaction.

He used it very smoothly.

The Golden Light Bell and the Candlelight Bell are essentially the same spiritual objects, cast in the same way, with no difference between them.

Just as Zhang Yuanzhu was carefully sensing the golden bell.

Boom!

A huge roar came from above, and the entire cave was shaking.

The pearls embedded in the cave wall broke one by one.

Zhang Yuanzhu directly hung the golden bell above his head to shatter the falling stones.

His body and mind were warning him to leave quickly.

The young man looked solemn. He stood up, carried Xie Beiling on his back, and spoke word by word:
"The being in the Black Corner Tower is here!"

Apart from that unknown thing, there is no other existence in the Black Horn Secret Realm that can bring him such great pressure.

A thought.

All the formations arranged inside and outside the cave were activated.

In an instant, the entire cave was immersed in a sea of light, and beams of light shot up into the sky, obscuring the vision of all living beings.

Zhang Yuanzhu exerted force with his feet.

Boom!

The soil beneath his feet collapsed, and he rushed into it like a dragon.

In an instant, it disappeared, and only the echoing sound of the bell could be heard.

A few miles beyond the stream, the clearing suddenly gave way.

A slender figure walked out. He was wearing a red robe, a golden bell on his head, and carrying a pretty woman on his back.

Zhang Yuanzhu stood on the ground and looked back in the direction of the cave.

His pupils shrank slightly, and he saw a three-meter-tall woman dressed in pure white, like an immortal, standing above the cave.

The woman had a tall and majestic figure, with long hair cascading down to her waist. However, her hair was not black, but silver-white, and each strand had a jade-like luster.

A white forehead with a black horn without a sharp corner is embedded on it.

The moment Zhang Yuanzhu looked at the woman, the woman in white also turned sideways and looked at him.

Two gazes intertwined in the sky.

One was cold and merciless, the other was icy and brutal, both carrying the deepest murderous intent.

The golden bell above Zhang Yuanzhu's head trembled slightly, and golden light dropped down, wrapping around his body and turning into rainbow light and flying towards the sky.

The woman in white withdrew her gaze and looked at the formation that was intertwined and entangled under her feet.

He reached out his palm and pressed gently.

boom!
The mighty light was extinguished, the formations were broken, and the flowing streams were cut off.

He took a step forward and rushed towards the golden light.

A golden light and a white light streaked across the sky.

The powerful aura, released unscrupulously, made living beings tremble and monks dazed.

Zhang Yuanzhu frowned and looked at the tall woman who was approaching.

A thought.

Red-gold flames ignited from all over his body, condensed, transformed, and turned into feathers.

In an instant, the young man's figure disappeared, and only the golden three-legged bird remained between heaven and earth.

The divine bird spread its wings and swooped down with a bang.

The speed increased again and headed towards the sky.

At the same time, among the ruins, a series of formations emerged, connecting with each other to block the woman.

"Ah!"

The woman in white chuckled, with a hint of teasing in her light golden pupils.

"Youngster, I once said that the remnant soul followed you all the way and naturally saw the various formations you set up."

The white light turned and passed through the formation, continuing forward.

"I know the location of the formation and its weaknesses."

"Youngster, please surrender."

Boo!
The divine bird cried, the sky shook, and the ruins on the ground exploded.

Layers of golden flames covered the sky and the earth.

"Trail!"

The woman in white shouted softly.

His expression didn't change at all as he smashed through the raging flames and charged forward.

Xie Beiling, who was lying on the boy's back, turned around and glanced at the woman.

Then he turned back to his seat, leaned over to Zhang Yuanzhu's ear, and whispered:
"She's not the 'True Lord Black Horn', but an obsession, a remnant soul, or some strange entity."

Zhang Yuanzhu's eyes flickered, and some idea vaguely emerged in his mind.

Boom! Cry!
The golden bell above his head vibrated, accompanied by the cry of the divine bird, echoing throughout the world.

Various lights bloomed, obscuring the vision of all living beings.

He took the initiative to attack backwards.

Stab it!

Mysterious light burst forth, tearing through the flames, piercing through layers of protective spells, and piercing the golden wings.

Let the young bleed for it.

"Brother Tao!"

Xie Beiling cried out softly, looking at the boy's arm that was pierced.

Zhang Yuanzhu had no expression on his face and was speeding.

At the same time, various spells and formations that had been set up were blasted backwards to prevent the woman from chasing him.

It took the young man half an hour to use various means to shake off the other party.

Huhuhu~
Next to the ancient tree, Zhang Yuanzhu leaned against the trunk and gasped for breath.

There were various scars on his body, and his left arm was pierced and the flesh was cut off.

A pair of pupils flashed with blue light, trying their best to repair the injuries, stop the dripping blood, and repair the muscles by wriggling.

But often the next moment, the wound that has been mostly repaired will break apart and bleed again.

That was the residual power from the wound, which even the Jade Spirit Eyes could not dispel in a short time.

Xie Beiling had a look of regret on her face. She stretched out her hand and wiped the blood from the wound. She applied all kinds of external remedies, but the injury could not be healed.

"Don't waste the elixir, the power is too high."

Zhang Yuanzhu grinned, not feeling lost, but rather with a burning desire to fight.

"It's so interesting that I can win in the face of death!"

He tried his best to activate the secret technique of the spiritual eyes to recover from his injuries, while thinking about what to do next.

'I need time!'

Zhang Yuanzhu murmured in his heart.

Before he could think more, a mysterious light fell from the sky and obliterated the earth.

Dust rolled up, and a three-legged divine bird flew against the dust and flew towards the east.

A flash of white light followed closely behind.

In the red flames, Zhang Yuanzhu's face was pale, and an inch above his chest was cut open, revealing his wriggling internal organs.

The previous blow almost shattered his internal organs.

'How did it find this place?'

The young man held the beautiful woman in black dress in his arms, his brows furrowed.

He set up a large number of formations to conceal his aura, which were enough to restrain all fluctuations in his magic power. Otherwise, how could he concentrate on recovery?

Xie Beiling hugged the boy's neck tightly, with thoughts in her eyes.

After a moment, he whispered:

"Brother Dao, my body has been fused with the secret realm token. This is probably why it is looking for our hiding place."

After a pause, the girl raised her forehead with a hint of bitterness.

"Put me down, Brother Dao will be much safer."

"Brother Zhang has done his best in this desperate situation, so it doesn't count as a violation of the Dao oath."

"Xie Beiling, you talk too much!"

Zhang Yuanzhu had an indifferent expression on his face as he held the girl in the black dress and rushed forward.

Stab it!

A mysterious light flashed across, breaking through sixteen halos and cutting off a large piece of the young man's flesh.

Blood splattered and landed on the woman's face.

There was a blood red in her beautiful eyes, and everything around her seemed blurry.

Only that resolute face and the deep double pupils were engraved in his mind and could never be forgotten.

"Zhang Yuanzhu!"

The girl murmured, resting her head on the broad arms, and said no more.

Zhang Yuanzhu kept his speed constant and continued to fight back, each time with great momentum and brilliance.

But they were all broken by the woman in white behind him.

"Youngster, you are exhausted. Kneel down and submit!"

With a shout, the rain of fire in the sky was extinguished, and a red snake more than ten meters long exploded.

The existence born on the third floor of the Black Corner Tower is too powerful, and it crushes Zhang Yuanzhu and Xie Beiling by a huge margin.

One fleeing and the other chasing, constantly passing over the ruins.

A cup of tea!

A stick of incense!!
Half an hour!!!

Zhang Yuanzhu once again shook off the pursuit.

He sat behind the hill, his body covered with wounds, with bones exposed in many places.

There was even a pool of blood on the ground, which was still expanding.

Xie Beiling pursed her red lips and looked at the severely injured young man with determination in her eyes, as if she had made up her mind.

"Brother Dao, do you know why a Saintess from Six Desires Peak would hide in this remote place instead of cultivating in the Puppet Sect?"

The woman looked at the boy's raised head.

The jade finger pointed at herself and said word by word:
"Zhang Yuanzhu, this is just a Dharma body. It can fall, it's a pity to sacrifice it, and it can be transformed into merit."

"This body is not important."

Zhang Yuanzhu had no expression on his face, his eyes were calm as usual, and he whispered:
"Whether it's the Dharmakaya or the True Body."

"They bleed, they worry, they have all the emotions that ordinary people have. That's what makes them human, not tools."

"You have never betrayed me, and I have never betrayed you. This is not because of an oath, but..."

"The promise made!"
