Fried Salted Fish
Chapter 170 First Battle with Huang Ting
One of the bride's hands suddenly moved on its own, grabbing the small knife!
This change stunned the Zhenjiang King, and then his hair stood on end!
The knife!
So the knife was this woman's means of Jiehua (transformation)!
He rushed forward, not even bothering to find trouble with Ji Xiang, and immediately reached out to snatch the knife. The woman's corpse fell backward, the knife pulled out by her own hand, and obtained by the Zhenjiang King!
He saw that the female corpse did not seem to change, breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Ji Xiang, his face twisted!
"What kind of Taoist are you! How dare you come here and ruin my good fortune!"
The Zhenjiang King immediately made a move. The Huangting realm Great Cultivator's anger immediately caused the river water here to churn. This was the power given to him by his divine position!
Of course, Ji Xiang's escape was not slow either. The moment he threw the knife out, Ji Xiang had already reached out and thrown out several talismans!
But these talismans were not to deal with these cultivators, but to save those mortals!
"Wind, come!"
As the Wind Summoning Incantation was uttered, a sea of clouds surged from the horizon. A ferocious wind appeared without warning, stirring up vast waves. While stirring up the river tide, the entire sky seemed to be covered with a dark curtain. The sun had long disappeared, and it was so dark that nothing could be seen beyond a foot!
The huge wind, like an invisible hand, overturned all the mortal boatmen, and they were swept away by the wind. At the same time, demonic energy suddenly fluctuated under the water. Before, this demonic energy was suppressed fairly well, but now seeing the feast that was about to reach their mouths running away, they naturally wanted to chase after it!
"Humans eat the meat of the six domestic animals, and demons eat human hearts and livers, just like the praying mantis catching cicadas, and the oriole behind. Is every drink and peck predestined?"
"What a joke!"
Ji Xiang reached out and several command flags flew out from the muzzle of the meteor cannon behind him, suspended in the air!
"Heaven gives birth and heaven kills, the principle of the Dao!"
Ji Xiang shouted and chanted the incantation. At the same time, his whole person left the small boat in mid-air, running away like a dragonfly skimming the water. Immediately afterward, the small boat that had been happily rowing was shattered into dust on the spot, and the Zhenjiang King, already furious, struck with a palm from the air!
Ji Xiang threw those command flags into the distance, and all five command flags turned black, blocking the river surface!
Immediately, like a barrier, it blocked the thick demonic energy, preventing them from chasing after those small boats and mortals!
"Now it's July, you demons and ghosts, don't be too rampant!"
Do you know what month July is!
On the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the Longhan first year, Yuanshi Tianzun lectured on the supreme wonderful Dharma in the Shangyuan Hall of the Eight Scenery Heavenly Palace. Suddenly, the heavenly gate opened wide, and there was an appearance of bloody and filthy energy. It turned out that the Six Desire Demon Kings of the Netherworld were harming all living beings in the mortal world, so Tianzun ordered the Great Emperor Zhenwu to lead 300,000 divine generals, the Six Ding and Six Jia, the Five Thunder Divine Soldiers, and so on, to descend to the mortal world and pacify the demons within seven days!
"In July, using black command flags can summon the power of the myriad gods under the command of Emperor Zhenwu!"
July is the month when Zhenwu subdues demons!
These command flags are all magical instruments, obtained from the Lost Dragon Casino. Ji Xiang cast a spell to turn them all into Zhenwu Black Flags, which can subdue many demons in the water, but of course the power of the magical instruments is limited, and opponents at the Jindan (Golden Core) Earth Immortal level cannot be held down.
Among the great demons below, there appeared the aura of the Jindan level at this time. Demons possessing a demon core correspond to Jindan cultivators, and are called demon kings, but for Ji Xiang, these emerging demon kings were just punching bags!
Boom!
The river water broke open, and several powerful demon kings tore the five command flags to shreds. Ji Xiang had already run all the way here, treading on the water, and then kicked one of the demon kings in the face!
This kick was extremely powerful, and even the Jindan cultivator was shaken, and his eyes went dark. Immediately afterward, he heard a thunderclap in his ears!
Ji Xiang used the demon king's head as a stepping stone, paused briefly, and then shook out all the prayer beads in his hand!
"Twelve Thunder Gates, suppress!"
The twelve prayer beads represent the twelve thunder gates, so there are twelve thunderclaps that can shake the souls of demons and evil spirits!
"Twenty-four Qi, suppress!"
The twenty-four prayer beads represent the twenty-four Qi, so there are twenty-four heavenly and earth auras that can weaken the demonic energy on demons!
"Twenty-eight Constellations, patrol!"
The twenty-eight prayer beads represent the twenty-eight constellations, so there are twenty-eight rays of light descending, which can damage the flesh of demons!
"Thirty-two Heavens Deliverance Supreme Emperor, please!"
The thirty-two prayer beads represent the thirty-two Heavenly Emperors, which can comprehensively weaken the essence, energy, and spirit of demons!
All the prayer beads in his hand were thrown out, just like setting up prizes on a street stall, covering all the emerging demons! And according to the power of the prayer beads, they were weakened to varying degrees. These few Earth Immortal level demon kings were shaken by this, and although it was not enough to cause them too serious damage, the fact that their strength was cut off still made them very uncomfortable!
The Zhenjiang King arrived here in an instant with a single thought, and slapped down with a palm. Ji Xiang disappeared, and the demon king was smashed in the head by the Zhenjiang King's palm!
The Huangting realm is still above the Yuanshen (Primordial Spirit) realm. Killing an unprepared demon king, and one that had been greatly weakened, was an instant kill in his rage!
Blood stained the river tide, and a violent wind rose between heaven and earth, with waves hundreds of feet high! With a wave of his hand, the Zhenjiang King instantly transformed the river water of the entire great river into hundreds of raging dragons, striking towards Ji Xiang in the distance!
Ji Xiang was using the Earth Travel Technique of the Earth God!
"Don't tell me, this Earth God always greases his soles and runs at the first sign of trouble in myths and legends. This escape technique is indeed powerful. It's worthy of being a mid-level usage of earth escape, able to escape under the eyes of a Huangting realm cultivator."
Ji Xiang popped his head out, but hundreds of raging dragons of river water had already arrived in front of him. This momentum made Ji Xiang feel a little uncomfortable. After all, Huangting realm cultivators are not as easy to kill as Yuanshen realm cultivators. His strength is limited to the peak of the sixth realm, and small divine powers are useless against these raging dragons of river water.
But...
Boom!
Ji Xiang held up the Fire God command flag in his hand and waved it forward violently!
A monstrous sea of fire instantly transformed into substance, roaring towards the sky like hundreds of fire dragons!
When water and fire came into contact, a violent explosion occurred immediately, and the entire heaven and earth were filled with thick fog!
The Zhenjiang King came down in person and arrived in front of Ji Xiang in an instant. Although he did not know escape techniques, the speed of a Huangting realm Great Cultivator was no ordinary thing. He had just been run away from by Ji Xiang only because he was distracted by the small knife, which caused him to panic a little.
Now that he saw that the immortal corpse had not changed, he regained his composure. At this time, he was calm and dealing with Ji Xiang became easier.
"Let's see where you can escape!"
He came to Ji Xiang and grabbed him with a palm. Ji Xiang's form appeared in the fog!
But in the next moment, all the surrounding fog surged up, becoming a monstrous white smoke, instantly swallowing him!
Tongtian (Reaching Heaven) Bright Smoke, detain divine position!
The white smoke was like a violent tsunami, swallowing him for several breaths before quickly receding. Immediately afterward, what was stripped from his body was also the divine position of Zhenjiang King that he was so proud of. In an instant, all connection between the water mansion and him was severed!
The surging waves between heaven and earth stopped!
The Zhenjiang King lost his divine position, and he was immediately shocked. He had never encountered such a situation. Normally speaking, after accepting the divine position and becoming a divine general, unless he gave up himself, the divine position would be retained forever!
He is still a Ming Dynasty divine general, without the court's decree, without the emperor's imperial edict, who can strip him of his divine position!
