Wang Yu
Chapter 329 Wanted Criminal of the Samsara Temple (Happy Dragon Boat Festival)
The inner sect elders and personal disciples on the surrounding steps, as well as everyone in the surrounding square, seemed somewhat at a loss. Obviously, most people were unaware of the identity of the suddenly appearing silver-bearded man and his entourage, and what it meant for what was about to happen.
Han Li's face darkened slightly, and while secretly cursing his bad luck, his mind raced.
Although he didn't know who these people were, with his experience, he could see that this silver-bearded man's identity was by no means simple, and his strength was probably comparable to Bai Liyan, the first Dao Lord of the Candle Dragon Dao.
Even the fact that Ouyang Kuishan and the other ten Golden Immortal Dao Lords dared to suddenly attack Bai Liyan was probably related to this person, otherwise he couldn't figure out the motivation and support for Ouyang Kuishan and the others to do so.
Although Bai Liyan was the first Dao Lord of the Candle Dragon Dao and the person with the highest cultivation level in the entire sect, he had been in closed-door cultivation for many years and rarely interfered with the affairs of the Candle Dragon Dao. The actual controllers of the sect and beneficiaries of the resources were actually the other Golden Immortal Dao Lords. There was no conflict between the two sides on this point. On the contrary, the latter had to be sheltered by the former.
And although he seemed to be trapped now, he had not suffered any fundamental damage. As long as he had a moment to catch his breath, he would have a good chance to break out of the formation. At that time, even if Ouyang Kuishan and the other ten joined forces, they would not be a match for Bai Liyan.
But after this silver-bearded man appeared, the situation was completely different. Han Li could even slightly detect the slight changes in the expressions on the faces of Ouyang Kuishan and the others.
But in the end, all of this had nothing to do with him. He didn't want to be an innocent bystander.
However, under the current situation, he must not act rashly and could only play it by ear.
While pondering, he scanned the people in the sky one by one, trying to see something else from them.
However, when his gaze fell on a young man holding a folding fan among the people behind the silver-bearded man, he felt a sharp pain in his mind as if a "boom" had suddenly exploded.
Han Li couldn't help but lower his head and gently rubbed his temples with the base of his palms.
The young man had a handsome appearance and wore a silver outfit embroidered with flowers, birds, fish, and insects, which looked extremely gorgeous.
He gently shook a white jade folding fan in his hand, with a warm smile on his face. His gaze seemed to casually look down from the sky, but he only glanced over the crowd of people below in the square like ants, and directly turned to the White Jade Platform above.
After rubbing for a while, Han Li seemed to feel some relief, but he didn't look up at the man again. However, a trace of imperceptible shock and anger flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"Xue Ying greets Palace Lord." At this moment, Xue Ying, who was located on the other side of the lecture platform, suddenly opened her mouth and said to the silver-bearded man.
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
The identity of the person who could be called Palace Lord by Xue Ying, the Deputy Palace Lord of the Northern Cold Immortal Palace, was naturally obvious.
It was Xiao Jinhan, the current Palace Lord of the Northern Cold Immortal Palace.
Xiao Jinhan just nodded slightly, then looked towards the golden cage below, and met the gaze of Bai Liyan in the cage.
The former's lips curled up in a slight sneer, while the latter's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.
On the high platform, Yu Yangzi and Mo Fuzi looked at each other, and both saw a hint of fear in each other's eyes. They moved their steps one after another, away from this place of right and wrong in the center of the high platform.
The others also retreated with them, completely vacating the middle position.
"Palace Lord Xiao, before, I, Luo, an outsider, was not convenient to interfere because it was an internal conflict of the Candle Dragon Dao. Now, seeing this situation, it seems that the Northern Cold Immortal Palace also wants to participate in this matter. This move should give everyone present an explanation, right?" Cang Liu Palace Lord Luo Qinghai looked up at the people from the Immortal Palace and said slowly.
"Bai Liyan is a wanted criminal of the Reincarnation Hall who is being pursued by the Heavenly Court. This Palace Lord is ordered to arrest him. Does this reason satisfy Daoist Luo?" Xiao Jinhan said coldly.
After saying that, he waved his palm, and a golden light flashed and disappeared into the sky. It was a golden scroll.
With a flash of light, the scroll unfolded, with a piece of golden writing on it. The content was as Jinhan said, which was an arrest warrant for Bai Liyan.
Hearing the name Reincarnation Hall, many True Immortals of the Candle Dragon Dao looked blank, not knowing what it was all about. Even Yu Yangzi seemed a little unclear, only Mo Fuzi and Luo Qinghai's eyes flashed with a trace of imperceptible strangeness.
The former used his mind to transmit a voice to Hu Yan Old Daoist, saying "Sorry," and then flew out of the range of the White Jade Platform.
With a wave of his sleeve, he summoned the giant inkstone, landed on it, and drove it away directly, not willing to have anything to do with this place again.
The latter's eyes twitched slightly, and after taking a deep look at Bai Liyan, he fell silent, but he didn't intend to leave like this.
Yu Yangzi and the others were not stupid either. Seeing this situation, they knew that this matter was not suitable for them to get involved in, and they all turned into streams of light and flew away into the distance.
Only a few people couldn't resist the curiosity in their hearts and flew hundreds of miles away, then stopped again and watched from a distance.
The people from the Northern Cold Immortal Palace, including the silver-bearded man, did not stop these people's actions.
"Ouyang Kuishan, do you really want to betray me?" Bai Liyan retracted his gaze, looked at the eight Golden Immortal Dao Lords who were imprisoning him, and asked in a deep voice.
The red flames rolled around him, stirring up waves of shocking heat, and were still constantly burning the chains on his body, but for some reason, those golden chains looked motionless, without the slightest sign of being melted.
Ouyang Kuishan and the others were obviously not relaxed either. Sweat had already seeped out of everyone's foreheads, and no one dared to relax in the slightest, pinching the magic formula in their hands and trying their best to stabilize the cage formed by the golden chains.
"Daoist Bai Liyan, although our Candle Dragon Dao is quite strong, it is difficult to compete with the Immortal Palace. Behind them is the Heavenly Court! What do we have? We can't just watch the entire Candle Dragon Dao be destroyed with you." Ouyang Kuishan took a deep breath and said.
"What about you, is that what you think too?" Bai Liyan looked at the thirty-six deputy Dao Lords behind these people and asked.
When these people heard this, they all lowered their heads and didn't want to meet his eyes.
At the same time, the thousands of people on the surrounding steps had fallen into an embarrassing situation.
Even if they didn't know what the Immortal Palace Palace Lord was talking about, with their knowledge and experience, they had roughly figured out something.
Many people immediately had the idea of leaving, after all, they didn't want to be involved in this kind of Golden Immortal-level struggle in vain, but those people from the Immortal Palace in the sky, although they seemed calm and relaxed, like they were watching a play, their eyes would occasionally sweep down, like thorns on their backs.
Han Li was among the crowd, his eyes occasionally scanning the people from the Immortal Palace in the sky, wondering what he was thinking.
Qi Liang also fell silent at this moment. Obviously, the matter at hand was no longer something that a True Immortal Realm elder like him could participate in.
The entire platform suddenly fell silent, everyone became silent and the atmosphere became oppressive.
"Ouyang Kuishan, why don't you act, what are you waiting for?" Xiao Jinhan suddenly said, his voice was not loud, but full of an unquestionable majesty.
Ouyang Kuishan and the others did not respond, one hand grabbing the golden chain, and the other hand began to pinch the magic formula.
A strong wave rose from the ten Golden Immortals, covering the void within a hundred miles. Wherever it passed, the void seemed to ripple like the surface of water, and the scenery also appeared a bit blurred.
The golden cage was in the middle of the wave. Under the frantic flashing of golden light on the surface, it actually condensed strands of golden thin lines, like countless dense tentacles, extending and stabbing towards Bai Liyan.
At this moment, in the southwest, behind a gray-robed old man controlling the golden chains, a piece of snow-white light suddenly lit up, and a huge shadow of a snow lotus flower emerged from the void.
Ouyang Kuishan caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye, and was immediately shocked. He shouted loudly:
"Yun Ni, don't..."
Before he could finish his words, the light in the shadow of the snow lotus flower flickered frequently, and a snow-white palm print as crystal clear as jade suddenly protruded from it, hitting the back of the Golden Immortal Dao Lord.
A crystal clear bead was condensed in his palm. At the moment of approaching his back, it suddenly exploded, stirring up a howling storm and blooming a dazzling snow-white light.
The gray-robed old man had already exhausted a great deal of his mind to control the chains of the great formation, and the golden-haired man and the black-veiled woman's defenses were mainly aimed at Hu Yan Daoist, and they never expected that Yun Ni would do such an unwise thing.
Caught off guard, he only had time to release his body protection aura, and could not summon any magic weapons at all. He was slapped on the back by the palm.
With a "bang", the aura on the old man's body suddenly dissipated, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. His body, like a kite with a broken string, flew forward involuntarily, and slammed into the golden cage that was trapping Bai Liyan.
Although one of his hands was still tightly holding the golden chain, the hand pinching the magic formula had already been released.
In the next moment, the light on the surface of the golden cage trembled, and Bai Liyan in the cage let out a laughter that shook thousands of miles. His eyes shone with red light, and two rays of red light shot out like substance.
At the same time, the aura on his body also soared!
In the sky, Xiao Jinhan snorted coldly, and his big hand suddenly waved downwards. His wide sleeves bulged without wind, and a golden talisman with seal script flew out of it, rippling with waves of laws, and shot directly at the golden cage like an arrow.
Seeing this, Hu Yan Daoist didn't say a word and waved his hand, hitting a cyan ball covered with runes. At the same time, he bit the tip of his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of essence blood on it.
Almost at the same time, the golden-haired man who was blocking in front of him waved his hands, and the golden wheel behind him suddenly rose into the sky. It spun quickly and went straight to the ball. As for the black-veiled woman, her body turned into a black shadow and rushed towards Yun Ni.
Hu Yan Daoist's eyes widened, his beard and hair were all stretched out, and he pinched the magic formula with both hands, and lightly spit out a "Hurry".
It could be seen that the cyan ball stained with blood, the dense golden lines on it suddenly lit up, disappeared with a blur, and the golden wheel sacrificed by the golden-haired youth could not catch up at all.
In the next instant, the cyan ball suddenly appeared near the golden talisman, and the brightness of the golden lines on it instantly reached its peak, and it exploded directly.
Where the cyan light exploded, a huge cyan cloud rose, turning into an incomparably majestic and turbulent wave of air, sweeping in all directions.
Before the cyan cloud could dissipate, a golden light suddenly flashed below it.
The light on the golden talisman flickered frequently, and it continued to fly towards the cage without any damage.
Seeing that it was about to fall on the golden cage, a transparent sword light that was invisible to the naked eye suddenly appeared in the void, like a gurgling stream, hitting it impartially.
There was only a soft "poof".
When almost everyone didn't notice it, the flowing sword light had already dissipated without a trace.
The golden talisman that was hit by it had already deviated from its flight path without anyone noticing. Although it was still falling straight down, it was no longer possible to fall on the cage.
All of this seemed long, but in fact, it was just a moment.
