Chapter 2194 The Oriole Is Behind
When masters fight, sometimes the victory or defeat is just a matter of seconds.
If we talk about magical moves, it is definitely Empress Yuhua who is far better than Shen Biyou. Her magic changes are mysterious and unpredictable, and even Liang Yan, a bystander, cannot fully understand it.
From beginning to end, Empress Yuhua was attacking, while Shen Biyou was defending.
Unfortunately, no matter how many magic spells she had, she could not break Shen Biyou's "Xuanqing Immortal Qi". Instead, the opponent seized a flaw and suddenly counterattacked!
In an instant, the situation reversed!
Empress Yuhua was sucked by the green vortex, her body could not move, and her magic power was limited to a range of ten feet, and all kinds of magical powers could not be used.
Swish!
The sound of breaking through the air sounded, but it was Shen Biyou's three rays of light that had arrived in front of him.
These three rays of light did not pierce Empress Yuhua's vitals, but pierced her left shoulder, lower abdomen and thigh respectively.
Obviously, Shen Biyou still showed mercy.
Although the two belonged to the Taoist and Confucian schools, he had no intention of taking Lady Yuhua's life. He just wanted to injure her and prevent her from competing with him for the treasure.
Just as he was about to be hit, a jade statue suddenly flew out of Lady Yuhua's sleeve.
This statue was very similar to her figure, but it had no facial features and could not see her face. It was only the size of a palm at first, and then it grew in the wind, and suddenly it was about ten feet high, floating behind her, as if it was a second Lady Yuhua.
This "Lady Yuhua" grabbed the three rays of light with her bare hands, and then rubbed them gently, and they all turned into green smoke.
Liang Yan saw this scene from afar, and his eyes showed surprise.
This Lady Yuhua's magical skills are really endless, and the Confucian methods are numerous and mysterious, which is indeed worth learning from.
In fact, not only was he surprised, but even Shen Biyou frowned, obviously not expecting the other party to have such a method.
Now there is not much time left, and the midnight is approaching. If Bai Xiao Jushi does not wait for them in Xuanji Cave, he may be suspicious.
Shen Biyou's mind was racing, and he suddenly bit his tongue and dripped a drop of blood into the "Xuanqing Immortal Qi".
The power of the vortex suddenly increased by more than 30%, and it firmly fixed Empress Yuhua, preventing her from leaving the coverage of the vortex.
At the same time, Shen Biyou flashed and wanted to repeat the trick and rushed into the waterfall behind him.
"Want to leave? Humph, I, Yuhua, was fooled by you once, will I be fooled again?"
Empress Yuhua sneered, and her mind turned, and a red rope flew out of the storage ring.
Although she herself could not move, the white jade statue behind her could.
The statue grabbed the rope, raised its hand, and in a few miles, it instantly caught Shen Biyou's ankle.
"Tianshu Binding Rope?"
Shen Biyou recognized this treasure and his face changed slightly.
It is rumored that the Confucian sages used this treasure to capture ancient beasts. The power of the seal is extremely strong, and the quality is the ninth level of robbery treasure. It is likely that it was the reward that Empress Yuhua received after her meritorious service to the Confucian League.
With Shen Biyou's strength, he would not be so easily caught by Empress Yuhua's rope, but in order to suppress the opponent, he used all his "Xuanqing Immortal Qi" to trap the enemy, and his own defense was greatly weakened, so he was hit by the opponent.
The Tianshu Binding Rope can also seal the opponent's magic power. The moment Shen Biyou was caught, his escape light was immediately shattered, and like Empress Yuhua, he was unable to move in mid-air.
At this time, the two of them became a stalemate...
In mid-air, Shen Biyou used all his strength to activate the "Xuanqing Immortal Qi" to try to suck Empress Yuhua into the vortex.
Empress Yuhua controlled the white jade statue behind her and tightened the "Tianshu Binding Rope" to completely seal the opponent's magic power.
Both of them refused to give in!
Gradually, the faces of both of them turned red. It seemed that they had tried their best, but they could not do anything to each other.
Finally, Shen Biyou spoke first: "Yuhua, if we continue to fight like this! It will definitely be discovered by Baixiao Jushi, and then everyone will lose face! Why don't we each take a step back, I will count to three, and we will disperse our magical powers together?"
"Okay, as long as you first admit that the magical powers of the Taoist sect are not as good as those of the Confucian sect, I will disperse my magical powers immediately." Although Empress Yuhua was wearing a veil, it can still be seen from some places that her face turned red.
"You are determined not to make peace!" Shen Biyou said angrily.
"So what? I said, we must decide who is better today!" Empress Yuhua sneered repeatedly.
While speaking, a ray of light suddenly lit up between her eyebrows, and the white jade statue behind her seemed to have sensed it, and its momentum suddenly increased, tightening the Tianshu Soul Binding Rope.
Shen Biyou was strangled so hard that it hurt, and many meridians in her body were sealed by strange forces, and the mana she could call on became less and less.
He finally understood that he could not convince this woman at all, and he had to decide who was better today. He had no choice but to cast a spell with all his strength, and urged the mysterious and pure immortal energy to the extreme.
The fight between the two people changed from dynamic to static, and gradually became a pure magic power competition. Both sides could not move. It depended on who had deeper magic power and who would laugh last.
Liang Yan saw this scene and had a bad premonition in his heart...
He turned his eyes and saw that Hu Quandou was ready to move.
"This old thief is really patient! The fight was fierce before, and he didn't choose to take action even though he had several opportunities. He has been patient until now, and finally he has waited for the best time..."
Even Liang Yan had to admire this man's patience, and he was calm enough.
At this time, Hu Quandou was hiding in the cracks of the rocks, with a smile on his face, looking proud of "everything is under control".
He pinched the magic formula, and a yellowish-brown glow slowly condensed above his head, looking ready to go.
"This old thief is going to make a move!" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
He could almost conclude that this person's magic power was definitely not weak!
Now Shen Biyou and Empress Yuhua have been fighting to a white-hot point, and neither side is willing to disperse their magical powers, causing both of them to be sealed by the other's magic power.
If Hu Quandou made a move at this time, the two would definitely be in danger!
At this moment, Liang Yan's mind was racing, weighing the pros and cons, and finally decided to intervene.
Since he knew that his seventh difficulty was a Taoist tribulation, his mentality has changed a lot. Before, he planned to remain neutral in the dispute between Taoism and Confucianism, watching the fire from the other side, but now he has to take the initiative to jump into the whirlpool.
After all, the old man Xuanji's conjecture is his only way to save himself. He must obtain the two secret books, "Wuwei Daojing" and "Yiqi Zhengxin Jue"!
In order to achieve the goal, he must make friends with the Taoist and Confucian monks.
Liang Yan really couldn't bear to let Shen Biyou, a monk who already had a great liking for him, die here...
Thinking of this, Liang Yan's right index finger slightly hooked, and suddenly flicked his finger, hitting a rock above Hu Quandou with a wisp of invisible sword energy.
Boom!
There was only a muffled sound, and the rock fell down, hitting Hu Quandou's hiding place.
"Who is it?!"
Shen Biyou and Empress Yuhua reacted at the same time.
One of these two people is the Taoist Master of the Taoist Alliance, and the other is a teacher of the Academy. Both of them have the cultivation of sub-sages, and their spiritual power is naturally not weak.
The reason why Hu Quandou was not discovered before was not only because Hu Quandou's own hiding methods were not bad, but also because the two fought too fiercely, and their attention was on each other, and they relaxed their exploration of the surrounding environment.
Now, this strange sound naturally attracted the attention of Shen Biyou and Empress Yuhua.
The two people's consciousness surged like a tide, and they instantly discovered the trick hidden in the rock.
"Damn it!"
Hu Quandou's face changed drastically, and he cursed in his heart.
He never expected that he would be so unlucky. This rock fell exactly where he was hiding.
He was not without doubt, but Liang Yan's invisible sword energy was so wonderful that Hu Quandou's consciousness could not find it at all. In addition, the fight between Shen Biyou and Empress Yuhua was too intense, and there were cracks around the cave. It was normal for a rock to fall.
"This stinky stone has to fall on my head. It's a bad thing, really a bad thing!"
Hu Quandou cursed in his heart, but the magic formula in his hand did not stop.
Once the bow is shot, there is no turning back!
Even if there was an accident, he still decided to attack the two.
At the moment when the opponent's consciousness spread, his magic had already condensed. A yellow cloud shot out and split into two in midair, rushing towards Shen Biyou and Empress Yuhua at the same time!
Seeing the yellow cloud, Shen Biyou was stunned for a moment, but Empress Yuhua recognized it at a glance.
"Hu Quandou!"
Apparently, Empress Yuhua had seen Hu Quandou in action before.
Because they had been alerted in advance, the moment they saw the yellow cloud appear, both of them dispersed their magic power at the same time.
Although they regained their freedom, the magic power in their bodies could not be smooth for a while. Seeing that the yellow cloud had already flown in front of them, the two had no time to use their magic power and could only use defensive magic weapons to resist.
A rosy glow flashed in front of Shen Biyou, and a green flag appeared, fluttering, and instantly condensed into a nine-layer airtight barrier.
Empress Yuhua waved her sleeves, and a white jade umbrella appeared in front of her. She opened it with her hands, and with a slight turn, it immediately burst into a brilliant white jade glow.
These two magic weapons, one is the "Xiaoyao Banner" and the other is the "Spirit Jade Umbrella", both of which are the most trusted defensive magic weapons for the two. They will be used without hesitation at any time of crisis, and have helped them to escape danger many times.
But this time, an accident happened...
The void above the two people's heads was torn apart, and a white light fell from the sky, holding the magic weapons of the two people, breaking through the air and disappearing in an instant.
"How is it possible!"
Shen Biyou's eyes showed horror.
The Xiaoyao Banner was made by him personally, and his own blood was dripped into it before it was formed. It is impossible for it to be taken away so easily!
He also tried to use his spiritual sense to sense the Xiaoyao Banner, but found that this treasure had been disconnected from him...
At the same time, Huang Yun was already roaring!
Shen Biyou's face changed drastically. He had just been locked up by Empress Yuhua's "Tianshu Binding Rope" for too long. Although the opponent had loosened the chain, many meridians in his body had not recovered yet, and his magic power was not smooth.
He wanted to use the Xiaoyao Banner to resist the opponent's attack, but he didn't expect that the Xiaoyao Banner disappeared under his nose...
Helplessly, Shen Biyou could only forcibly exert his magic power and condense a protective aura in front of him to block the opponent's sneak attack.
Bang!
There was a loud noise, and Huang Yun pounced on the surface of the protective aura. The magic powers of the two sub-saints collided with each other, and a green and yellow halo bloomed.
After all, Shen Biyou's magic power was not smooth. The defensive means he used in a short period of time were okay for ordinary cultivators in the Huajie realm, but how could he defend against Hu Quandou, who was also a sub-saint?
Soon, his protective aura shattered inch by inch.
Huang Yun pounced on him, as if thousands of ants were gnawing at his flesh!
Shen Biyou groaned, turned pale, and took a few steps back.
He looked hurt, but not completely defeated by the move.
Because he was prepared in advance, he used a small amount of magic power to guard important places such as his heart veins and dantian, and was not penetrated by Huang Yun.
It's just that the internal organs and meridians were damaged to varying degrees, and the injuries were serious.
Shen Biyou staggered and staggered, but finally managed to steady himself. With a glance from the corner of his eye, he realized that Empress Yuhua was no better than him.
This Confucian female cultivator also walked in vain, and there was even a drop of blood dripping from under her veil...
"Someone is attacking in secret!"
While Shen Biyou was dissolving the seal restrictions in his body, he was using his magic power to repair his injuries.
His face was extremely angry, and he looked towards the rock crevice in the distance.
"hey-hey."
Just hearing a chuckle, Hu Quandou slowly appeared.
He was holding a cane and stroking his long beard, looking like he was holding a pearl of wisdom.
"The two little kids are just unsure. They are fighting to the death for a treasure. Little did they know that the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind them. I have collected both the man and the treasure today!"
Seeing this person appear, Empress Yuhua's eyes flashed sharply, and she shouted: "Hu Quan Dou, you are so brave! You dare to rob both Confucianism and Taoism at the same time. From now on, Dongyun Lingzhou will still have room for you." Land?"
After hearing this, Hu Quandou laughed: "Young girl, you are sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued, but now you want to be cruel? To tell you the truth, others are afraid of your Taoist and Confucian sects, but I am not afraid! I am invincible among the saints. No one in the world will take action against me.”
"Invincible under the saint?"
Empress Yuhua laughed without hesitation, her eyes full of sarcasm: "Hu Quandou, what means do you have, how dare you be so arrogant in front of Confucianism and Taoism?"
After hearing this, Hu Quandou's eyes flashed fiercely, but he still looked smiling on the outside.
"It seems that you two won't shed tears until you see the coffin. You will see what tricks I have in store soon..."
After saying that, he pinched the magic formula in his hand and started to take action.
"etc!"
Shen Biyou suddenly shouted: "Is there any misunderstanding between you two coming here? The treasure behind the water curtain is the 'Lingyuan Snow Lotus', which is used to reduce the difficulty of the monks in the tribulation realm. You are all already sub-sages, The nine disasters have passed. The last disaster is to compete with the way of heaven. The difficulty cannot be reduced. This treasure has no effect on you at all, right? "
As soon as he finished speaking, Empress Yuhua sneered beside her: "Shen Biyou, Shen Biyou, you are so naive. You still want to make peace now. Do you think we don't know what's inside?"
