Chapter 416 The bell of desolation rings!
At night, the stars were dim.
On the mountain path outside Huangtong City, Yang Zhengguang was running as fast as he could, trying to get away from the city as soon as possible.
This was not his own idea, but the advice of the "senior" in his mind.
According to the senior, if he did not get away from Huangtong City as soon as possible, he would definitely be caught and tortured, and lose his freedom forever.
As for the reason, it was naturally because of the "senior" who lived in his mind.
The "senior" did not hide this point.
Out of trust in this "senior", Yang Zhengguang decided to leave Huangtong City without much hesitation.
Escape!
However, Yang Zhengguang was only a ninth-grade warrior after all, and his physical strength was limited.
After such a long run, he would definitely be tired. After running fifty miles, he was exhausted and had no choice but to find a dense forest to rest temporarily.
"Senior, when I left the city, I heard a piece of news that the Chunyang Martial Arts School's attention, that is, the junior brother Zhou Heng of the Chunyang Palace's master, has returned. He is a newly promoted master, and should be the one who came to see me before." Yang Zhengguang whispered.
"Master?" The senior in his mind was surprised and doubtful: "This is impossible. If it is just a master, his spiritual power cannot be so strong that it can even penetrate your body barrier, so that I can feel his pressure in this state."
"But if it is not him, I can't think of who this person would be. I have basically seen all the strong men in Huangtong City." Yang Zhengguang was puzzled.
"It may also be Zhou Heng's senior master, after all, Chunyang Palace has a deep foundation." The senior pondered for a moment and said: "However, it is also possible that it was Zhou Heng himself who came.
"This can also explain why he didn't take action directly, because he is only a fifth-grade sect leader and has no way to take me down. After leaving, he may have gone to ask for help. "
"But I heard that Zhou Heng did not leave Huangtong City and went to Yu's house to drink. "Yang Zhengguang frowned.
"A master may have other ways to communicate." The senior continued to guess: "The Taoist method he left behind before should be used to mark your location. Fortunately, you threw it away."
"Well, don't worry, senior, I have thrown it away." Yang Zhengguang nodded.
He did not lie. He had indeed thrown away the golden leaf that recorded the "Golden Book of the Five Thunders Law", but he had memorized the entire content of the Taoist method.
Even Yang Zhengguang himself felt strange about this situation. Although he was gifted, he did not have the ability to remember everything he saw, and there was no sign of this in his daily life.
But when he was watching the content of the "Golden Book of the Five Thunders Law", he clearly felt that his memory seemed to have been greatly enhanced. He remembered the entire article with just one glance.
And he always had a feeling in his heart that as long as he practiced this Taoist method, he could truly change his destiny, soar to the sky, and become a superior person.
This made Yang Zhengguang very eager for this Taoist method.
Just having a brain He did not dare to practice rashly even though the senior in the sea was there.
Moreover, this Taoist method was extremely mysterious, and he still did not understand many things. Even if he wanted to practice, he could not practice it.
It was because of this desire that when he escaped before, he even had the idea of going back to Zhou Heng to ask for advice on Taoist practice.
Yang Zhengguang was shocked by his own thoughts, fearing that he would be discovered by the senior in his mind and bring himself a fatal disaster.
Although he did not know the true identity of this "senior", he had a clear understanding of it. Since the other party could parasitize in his mind, it would definitely not be difficult to kill him.
Fortunately, this "senior" did not seem to find it.
This made Yang Zhengguang feel a little relieved.
"How was your rest?" the senior said in a deep voice.
"I have recovered some of my physical strength and can hurry on." Yang Zhengguang said.
"Are there any villages and towns ahead?" the senior asked.
"It seems there is a village." Yang Zhengguang said after a little thought.
"Okay, go kill twelve people. I need to recover some vitality just in case. "The senior said.
"I understand." Yang Zhengguang nodded.
...
After Zhou Heng finished talking with Yu He, he returned to Chunyang Martial Arts Hall.
Here, he met Jiang Hong, who had recently become famous in Huangtong City, and was rumored to be competing with Yang Zhengguang.
It was Jiang Hong who took the initiative to find him.
This young man was quite studious and talented. Not long after he stepped into the ninth rank, he practiced another ninth rank move to perfection. He should have the hope of becoming an eighth rank before the age of 20.
Hearing that Zhou Heng was coming, Jiang Hong immediately came to ask him about martial arts training.
Zhou Heng could clearly feel that with the current teaching level of the Chunyang Palace Martial Arts Hall in Huangtong City, he might not be able to teach him anything soon.
"Recently, Chunyang Palace has accepted a group of outer disciples, so it's just right for him to enter the outer gate together." Zhou Heng looked at Jiang Hong, who was sorting out martial arts problems not far away, and chuckled, "Xiao Jiang, come here."
"Okay, owner, what's the matter? "Jiang Hong immediately put down the paper and pen in his hand, trotted to Zhou Heng, and said respectfully.
"You are talented and studious, I plan to recruit you directly to the outer gate of Chunyang Palace." Zhou Heng smiled and said, "What do you think?"
"What?!" Jiang Hong was stunned when he heard it, and then his cheeks flushed, his eyes widened, and he took a deep breath, "Really, really, you, you want to recruit me directly to the outer gate of Chunyang Palace?"
This is the training hall of the martial arts school.
As soon as Zhou Heng said this, the other apprentices who were practicing martial arts and many instructors also stopped what they were doing and looked over.
Being selected into Chunyang Palace is the dream of all Chunyang Palace martial arts apprentices.
And cultivating a Chunyang Palace disciple, even if it is only selected into the outer sect, is the goal that many teachers strive for.
Once you enter Chunyang Palace, your destiny in this life will fundamentally change.
Although Jiang Hong is indeed very talented and has great hope of being selected into the Chunyang Palace in the future, this is too soon.
The reason for all this is just a word from the owner!
"That's right."
Zhou Heng nodded. He saw everyone's reaction, but he didn't care.
There were two reasons why he directly recruited Jiang Hong into the outer sect.
On the one hand, I cherish my talent, and on the other hand, I also want to do an experiment.
The path of luck is quite mysterious. It is the most difficult to grasp among the five fortunes, and it is also the one with the most changes.
Zhou Heng planned to see what kind of impact a decision he made could have on a person's luck, and what factors could affect a person's luck.
This decision was to select Jiang Hong into the outer gate of Chunyang Palace.
From the perspective of the Celestial Qi Watching Technique, Jiang Hong's Luck Light Pillar was originally an ordinary pure white color, but now it was dyed with a touch of cyan.
There is a clear difference from before.
"This bit of cyan should be my promise. It is the status I gave him as an outer disciple of Chunyang Palace. When he really enters the door in the future, the cyan should be heavier. Sure enough, even if it is an additional status from outside, It will also affect luck.”
Zhou Heng thought secretly in his heart and guessed: "If it is an extremely noble position, will it directly bring a huge amount of luck, and can the massive luck be condensed into an extremely noble position?"
The exploration of the way of luck is his effort to achieve the five virtues and five fortunes. This is the way of his Dharmakaya, so naturally he cannot give up any opportunity to experiment.
At this moment, Zhou Heng suddenly discovered that Jiang Hong's luck beam was a little brighter. It seemed that something had affected him, making his luck become even stronger.
At the same time, he also sensed something strange on Yang Zhengguang's side through his soul, and there seemed to be some kind of connection between the two.
It was the strange situation on Yang Zhengguang's side that made Jiang Hong's luck become even stronger.
"Is this because he had a fight with Yang Zhengguang before?" Zhou Heng thought to himself: "Now that Yang Zhengguang's condition has made it impossible for him to compete with him, does this cause Jiang Hong's luck to become even stronger?
"I didn't expect that even this level of connection would cause changes in luck. It seems that this path is indeed mysterious and has many mysteries that I still don't understand."
Then, he said to Jiang Hong and the rest of the group: "I have some things that I need to leave for. You just need to continue practicing."
With that said, Zhou Heng walked out of the martial arts hall, stepped on the cloud light and rose into the air, flying to the sky to control the air. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared and left here.
As soon as Zhou Heng left, Jiang Hong was immediately surrounded by many people.
Ask around.
Some praise, some congratulate, some are jealous, and some are dissatisfied...
Jiang Hong finally experienced the complexity of human nature.
…
boom!
The tranquility of Sanyu Village was broken by an earth-shattering thunder.
Countless villagers who had just fallen asleep were awakened. A villager who was trembling with fear just now was staring at the scene in front of him in stunned silence.
A young man who had a fierce look and was about to kill him when he was caught was unexpectedly hit by a bolt of lightning that appeared out of thin air when he was about to do it, turning him into charcoal on the spot.
"God's will, is this God's will? God saved me!" The villagers were overjoyed and hurriedly got up from the ground and ran away like flying.
However, the thunder just now had woken up almost all the villagers, but no one came out of their homes.
Life experience tells them that when encountering such an abnormal situation, the best way to deal with it is to stay at home and never be curious. The more curious you are, the faster you may die.
The human-shaped Jiao Tan stood at the entrance of Sanyu Village, motionless, but did not fall down, and seemed to be in a strange state.
"Trash, what a trash, he died like that!"
The humanoid Jiao Tan suddenly spoke, and at the same time raised his hand, grabbing the carbonized skin off his face and arms, revealing the bloody flesh.
The humanoid talking to this person was Yang Zhengguang, who had been attacked here before and was reduced to charred by lightning.
Now Yang Zhengguang's soul has been annihilated, replaced by the "senior" who previously resided in his mind.
"What a waste! You actually covet a sect's fifth-grade Taoism! Damn it!" The bloody body cursed, very dissatisfied with Yang Zhengguang.
The lightning that struck just now was extremely powerful, enough to turn Yang Zhengguang, a ninth-level warrior, into powder in an instant.
If he hadn't made a decisive decision at the last moment and used the energy he had accumulated for a long time, he wouldn't have been able to save his body in this dilapidated state.
Parasitizing in Yang Zhengguang's mind, he could sense some of Yang Zhengguang's scattered thoughts, and already knew Yang Zhengguang's extreme desire for the Five Thunder Dharma.
But he didn't expect that what was hidden behind this desire was actually a divine thunder that exceeded the peak power of the fifth level of Zong.
He was caught off guard on the spot and his vitality was severely damaged.
"Zhou Heng, today's revenge will be avenged in the future!" The bloody body gnashed its teeth, hating Zhou Heng to the extreme.
"Why wait until later, why not do it today." Zhou Heng's playful voice floated from a distance, and then a cloud of light flew from the sky and instantly landed in front of him, revealing the appearance of a young Taoist priest, "What's your name?"
"You can actually hide from me and set up tracking methods?!" The bloody body looked at Zhou Heng in doubt and said, "Grandmasters should not have this level of soul perception ability. Is this what a warrior of this era is?"
"I'm not interested in listening to your feelings." Zhou Heng shook his head gently and said in a deep voice: "What's your name, where are you from, what is your purpose, what realm you were in, what identity..."
He basically said everything that could confirm the information and purpose of the person in front of him.
"Haha, do you think you have won?" The bloody body sneered, not looking like he was going to answer Zhou Heng's question at all.
"Isn't it?" Zhou Heng narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled, "You think that you are not the real soul here, so I can't do anything to you. Even if this wisp of soul is destroyed, your loss will not be great, right?"
This time, perhaps because the "remnant soul" that originally resided in Yang Zhengguang's body was truly possessed, he discovered the situation that he didn't notice last time.
It turns out that this wisp of "remnant soul" is not a real remnant soul, but just a wisp of soul thought separated from the complete soul, disguised as a remnant soul.
And there is a trace of demonic aura on it.
It is difficult for Zhou Heng not to associate it with the fox demon who married Yu He.
"Isn't it?" The bloody body was still disdainful, saying: "Or can a small master like you still come up with means to deal with this seat?"
Seeing that he had been partially exposed, he simply changed his self-proclaimed name.
"Don't you know if you try it?" Zhou Heng smiled, waved his right hand, and a green bronze bell appeared in his palm, and shook it gently.
Dang!
The sound of the bell vibrated, with the power of scattered souls!
The Fallen Bell!
This is a divine weapon of heavenly level, which was made by imitating a legendary treasure. It was once owned by the Qingdi Palace and was later seized by Zhou Heng. It is extremely powerful and specifically suppresses the soul.
In an instant, the power of the scattered soul not only affected the soul thoughts that possessed Yang Zhengguang, but also traced back to the source and transmitted the shock power of the magic weapon to him.
