Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 282 Controlling the Moon Goddess's Quicksand Retreat

"This, he did this!"

Dao Zhi rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Now he understood why Da Tiechui and Gao Jianli had such a strong opinion against Leng Feibai.

A master who could easily kill hundreds of well-trained elite Qin soldiers with a snap of his fingers actually abandoned them at the crucial moment.

If it were him, the robber Zhi, he would definitely have objections as well.

"Alright, all the small fry have been cleaned up!"

Leng Feibai clapped his hands, turned to look at Gai Nie and said, "Mr. Gai, you can go and discipline your junior brother now."

Gai Nie's complexion had returned to normal. He walked a few steps to Leng Feibai, drew Yuanhong from his waist, and said, "Xiao Zhuang, make your move!"

"Oh!"

Wei Zhuang used the shark tooth pestle to poke at the tunnel, "What, this time you're not choosing to run away again?"

"Some things, in the end, need an ending!"

Gai Nie raised Yuan Hong and said, "But you have to promise me that if you lose, you will leave the Mechanical City with the people of Liu Sha."

Wei Zhuang raised an eyebrow slightly after hearing this, drew his Shark Tooth sword, and said, "You win first, then we'll talk!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the two fell silent, staring intently at each other.

Leng Feibai watched the two about to start fighting, but he had no expectations.

Just kidding. In the original work, Gai Nie had just recovered from his injuries when he was backstabbed by Mo Yu Qilin, yet he was still able to defeat Wei Zhuang with his broken sword.

If Wei Zhuang hadn't used the Hundred Steps Flying Sword and the life or death of Guiguzi to distract Gai Nie, Gai Nie might not have lost that battle.

Now that Gai Nie's internal injuries and poisoning have been completely healed by his own power of creation, there is nothing to worry about.

Thinking of this, Leng Feibai simply walked to a small tree nearby, took out a peach from his pocket, and took a bite.

Those on the city wall couldn't help but twitch at the sight of Leng Feibai. How could this guy be so carefree, still indulging in food and drink at a time like this?

Just as the great battle between Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang was about to break out, inside the Mechanized City, another clone of Leng Feibai had already engaged the Yin Yang Clan.

The Moon Goddess, her face veiled, looked at Leng Feibai blocking her way and felt nothing but bad luck.

"kid!"

The Moon Goddess said calmly, "Would you mind moving aside? Otherwise, you'll be in trouble!"

"I don't want to stop you either!"

Leng Feibai's clone stretched and said, "However, my boss wants me to get rid of you rotten people from the Yin Yang Clan, so I have no choice but to ask you to die here!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the Moon Goddess knew that the person in front of her was up to no good. She released a wave of illusionary energy from her eyes and rushed straight towards her clone.

Upon seeing this, Leng Feibai raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The pale blue light patterns scattered, directly neutralizing the Moon Goddess's methods.

Suppressing Spirit Technique - Formless Dharma Ring
Upon seeing her move broken, a look of surprise flashed across the Moon Goddess's face.

Leng Feibai, however, learned from the Crooked-Mouthed Dragon King. The Formless Dharma Ring can dismantle all spells and techniques, so the Yin-Yang School's methods would be rendered useless by him.

But the Moon Goddess's surprise didn't last long. She then raised her jade hand, and more than a dozen ice arrows flew out of thin air, heading towards Leng Feibai's direction.

"The Yin-Yang arts of the Water Department?"

As he finished speaking, Leng Feibai raised his hand and snapped his fingers again.

A dazzling array of colorful energy immediately surged forth from all directions.

One of the arrows shattered the ice arrows released by the Moon Goddess, and together with the remaining energy, they wove into a giant net that rushed towards the Moon Goddess's location.

The Moon Goddess remained unfazed, her hands deftly changing shape as different hand seals appeared in her palms.

Around the moon goddess, golden swords appeared out of thin air and began to fly around her.

"This must be a technique from the Gold Department!"

Leng Feibai didn't move either, just watched the Moon Goddess's actions.

"ah"

With a delicate shout, the Moon Goddess's golden flying swords rose into the air, transforming into a golden beam that shot towards Leng Feibai's location.

Leng Feibai didn't care at all. With a wave of his right hand, he conjured a giant, multicolored arm and shattered the golden Qi swords into nothingness.

But at the same moment, the Moon Goddess flashed behind Leng Feibai, a sharp dagger appearing in her slender hand, and stabbed at Leng Feibai's back.

But before the dagger could strike its target, a burst of true qi erupted from beneath Leng Feibai, transforming into a whirlwind barrier that deflected the Moon Goddess's dagger.

As the dagger slipped from her hand, the Moon Goddess knew something was wrong and turned to flee.

But in the next moment, a black light was released, instantly engulfing the entire mechanical city.

In an instant, all living beings within the mechanical city were rendered immobile.

"The world has lost its color!"

The trapped moon goddess immediately thought of four words, and her only remaining movable eyeball began to dart around.

"I might have a better way to play than to kill you!"

Thinking of this, Leng Feibai immediately raised a blue light in his hand and placed it on the Moon Goddess's brow.

The Moon Goddess groaned, and soon after, a pale blue light appeared in her pupils.

Upon seeing this, Leng Feibai finally dispelled the color loss from the world.

The Moon Goddess looked at Leng Feibai and bowed slightly.

"Moon!"

Leng Feibai asked seriously, "How many Yin-Yang School members are still in the Mechanized City?"

"I'm all alone!"

Because she was controlled by the Double-Handed Hand, the Moon Goddess spilled everything she knew on the spot.

This time, in order to completely destroy the Mohist school, Ying Zheng spared no expense.

In addition to hiring the Gongshu family and the Quicksand organization, they also sought out members of the Yin-Yang School.

Donghuang Taiyi did not delay and directly sent the Moon Goddess, along with the Grand Master of Fate and the newly appointed Junior Master of Fate who had been promoted a year earlier, to the Mo family.

Among them, the eldest son of the Shao family is responsible for assassinating the Mo family's leader on the road, while the moon goddess is ordered to infiltrate the Mo family's mechanical city and bring back Gao Yue, the daughter of Dong Jun Yan Fei, a traitor of the Yin Yang family.

After hearing this, Leng Feibai continued to ask the Moon Goddess why Donghuang Taiyi wanted to take back an unrelated little girl.

Upon hearing this, the Moon Goddess's expression immediately turned ferocious, as if she strongly resisted the question.

"say!"

Leng Feibai's clone immediately adopted a stern tone and rebuked him sharply.

Under the intimidation of this voice, the Moon Goddess shivered all over and barely managed to tell everything she knew.

Leng Feibai's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. He never expected that the purpose of the Mirage's voyage was actually related to the elixir of immortality.

To be precise, the purpose of the mirage going out to sea is related to one of the mysteries in the Qin's Moon series, the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon.

According to the Moon Goddess, the secret behind the Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions is a special treasure.

The treasure contains elixirs of immortality and supreme divine skills that transcend heaven and earth. The keys to unlock the treasure, besides the seven legendary boxes held by the royal families of the seven kingdoms, are the Illusionary Sound Box, which was lost in the early years of the Yin-Yang School, and Ji Ruqianlong, also known as Gao Yue, whom Donghuang Taiyi deduced through astrological means as the person who would unlock the treasure.

As for the location of the treasure, the Moon Goddess only knew that it was on a certain island overseas.

She didn't know the exact location!
Leng Feibai pondered for a moment, then asked, "Moon Goddess, if you cannot bring Gao Yue back today, will the day the Mirage sets sail be postponed?" The Moon Goddess did not answer, but simply nodded.

"Go!"

Leng Feibai sensed his surroundings and, after confirming that no one was around, said sternly, "You can take Gao Yue away, but you are not allowed to harm Jing Tianming or Xiang Shaoyu in the slightest. Also, when you encounter Jing Tianming, remove the sealing curse from his body!"

The Moon Goddess nodded, turned around, and prepared to leave to find Gao Yue.

"and many more!"

Leng Feibai seemed to realize something and asked seriously, "Have the Yin-Yang School ever divined the identity of Qingyangzi of the Heavenly Sect?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the Moon Goddess nodded and said, "After Qingyangzi caused havoc in the Yin-Yang School, both the Eastern Emperor and I tried to find out about his life story. But as soon as I activated my astrological spell, the stars in the sky immediately stopped me. There were only two words in my mind: Stop, stop, stop! The same thing happened to the Eastern Emperor!"

Upon hearing this, Leng Feibai didn't say much. He waved for the Moon Goddess to leave and then told his main body and the other two clones what had just happened.

Leng Feibai, who was watching Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang's duel outside the city, couldn't help but become curious when he heard the message from his clone.

"Is this the secret of the Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions?"

As soon as he thought to himself, Leng Feibai's mind raced. If what the Moon Goddess said was true, then before he went to destroy the Mirage, he still had to find out the location of that so-called treasure.

Although I can achieve great things through steady and diligent progress, I'm not against taking shortcuts if they exist.

Perhaps inside, there is something that can help me break through the boundaries of my five internal organs.

With this in mind, Leng Feibai continued to ponder.

Now the Moon Goddess is controlled by his clone using his dual hands, which is equivalent to driving a nail into the Yin-Yang family.

Then let the Moon Goddess investigate slowly to find out where the so-called treasure is.

If you can figure it out, then see if there's anything useful inside.

If you don't understand, just smash the mirage, then make all the necessary preparations and head to Under One Person.

After dealing with those damned Japanese chickens, I'll use the method of self-destruction to start a new life.

"Once I successfully dissolve my physical body and absorb that primordial energy, I will be able to break through the limitations of the five internal organs until I master the upper volume of the cultivation method..."

Leng Feibai muttered to himself, "Then, I'll be able to..."

He stopped talking halfway through his sentence and glanced at the battlefield between Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang.

The battle between the two had reached its peak. This time, Gai Nie was unharmed. Although he didn't have the anger buff triggered by Duanmu Rong's serious injury, he was still more than capable of dealing with Wei Zhuang.

The next moment, sword energy surged from Yuanhong in Gai Nie's hand.

The inky black sword energy transformed into a terrifying dragon soaring into the sky, then scattered throughout the world, transforming into a sword energy storm that covered the entire battlefield.

At the same time, Gai Nie used his Qi Yu Yuan Hong to attack Wei Zhuang directly.

The storm of sword energy rendered Wei Zhuang immobile, leaving him only able to watch helplessly as Gai Nie charged toward him with his sword.

"boom"

With a flash of light, the Shark Tooth Sword flew from Wei Zhuang's hand, soared into the air, and then landed directly on the ground.

Looking at the shark tooth on the ground, Wei Zhuang knew that Gai Nie had shown mercy.

"A single blade severs the throat, a hundred paces away, a flying sword!"

Wei Zhuang turned to look at Gai Nie, "You have indeed mastered the ultimate killing sword technique in the Vertical Sword Art!"

"There is no such thing as a sure-kill sword in this world!"

Gai Nie twirled his sword, then sheathed Yuan Hong behind his back, saying, "Otherwise, you would already be dead from that sword strike!"

Wei Zhuang sneered, "What a pity, you didn't kill me. This will be the biggest failure of your life. Cherish what you just did, because that was the last time you used the Hundred Steps Flying Sword."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Zhuang waved his hand, and the Shark Tooth Sword instantly returned to his hand. At that moment, a surge of the same crimson true energy soared into the sky.

This caused everyone present, except for Leng Feibai, to turn pale with shock.

"You can also use the Hundred-Step Flying Sword!"

A hint of surprise appeared on Gai Nie's calm face, and at the same time, anger rose to his face.

What did you do to your master?

"I am also a disciple of the School of Diplomacy, why can't my master teach me the Hundred-Step Flying Sword!"

Upon hearing Wei Zhuang's words, Gai Nie was instantly thrown into turmoil, and the momentum he had just built up dissipated in an instant.

Upon seeing this, Wei Zhuang swung his sword straight at Gai Nie, but unexpectedly, at this moment, a figure blocked Gai Nie's path.

"Master Qingyang!"

Seeing Leng Feibai blocking his way, Gai Nie was stunned and quickly stepped forward to pull him away.

"Don't worry!"

Leng Feibai maintained his unwavering tone, but the next moment, a giant, multicolored arm materialized on his entire right arm and lashed out like a whip.

The whip struck out, hitting Shark Tooth squarely. The Shark Tooth sword, which had been so fierce, drew a circle in mid-air and stuck into the ground.

Upon seeing this, Wei Zhuang's eyes flashed with anger, and he landed in mid-air, glaring angrily at Leng Feibai.

"Don't look at me like that!"

Leng Feibai said lazily, "Neither of you are very good at practicing the Hundred Steps Flying Sword. You are far from being as good as Senior Guiguzi's Hundred Steps Flying Sword."

As soon as these words were spoken, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang's expressions changed drastically.

Gai Nie quickly pressed on, "Master Qingyang, have you met my master?"

"When I escorted Jing Ke out of the city, an old senior stopped me halfway and then sparred with me for a few moves! The last move he used was the Hundred-Step Flying Sword."

As Leng Feibai spoke, he used his true qi to condense a full-body image of the old man from back then.

Upon seeing the full-body image that suddenly appeared beside Leng Feibai, both Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang showed expressions of relief.

"Xiao Zhuang!"

At this moment, Gai Nie also saw the ring on Wei Zhuang's hand, which symbolized Master Guigu.

In addition, there was Wei Zhuang's reaction after Leng Feibai condensed his full-body image.

Gai Nie seemed to understand what had happened, and after softening his tone, he asked, "What exactly happened?"

Knowing he couldn't hide it any longer, Wei Zhuang revealed the truth: "I returned to Ghost Valley, but my master is no longer there. He only left behind the ring and the manual for the Hundred Steps Flying Sword."

Upon hearing this, Gai Nie felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart.

Wei Zhuang looked at Gai Nie without saying anything, and walked away into the distance with his Shark Tooth Sword in hand.

"The outcome of today's battle is still undecided!"

Wei Zhuang's voice remained emotionless as he turned to Gai Nie and said, "Next time we meet, you won't be so lucky, Senior Brother!"

After saying that, Wei Zhuang ignored the others and led the people of Quicksand away into the distance.

"Wei Zhuang!"

Leng Feibai shouted, "I threw the Jade Kirin into Sanghai City. If you want to find him, go to Sanghai City!"

Wei Zhuang ignored him and quickly disappeared with the people from Liu Sha.

At this moment, Gongshu Chou, who was hiding in the shadows, looked at the situation on the battlefield and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. He immediately retreated back to the military camp built by the Qin army and sent a letter to Xianyang City through a mechanical beast.
