Chapter 158 Undefeated in the East (6500-character chapter)(2/3)
Zhou Ming smiled and said: "Don't worry, you will understand soon."
With that said, he simply let Yang Lianting go and kicked him back to Dongfang Bubai very considerately.
Dongfang Bubai quickly helped Yang Lianting up, but found that he was clenching his teeth and looking pale. He seemed to be suffering from great pain, but he was trying not to cry out.
"Dugu Baitian, what did you do to Lianting?"
Zhou Mingdao: "The move I just made is called the Talisman of Life and Death. Once this Talisman of Life and Death occurs, it becomes more severe every day. The itching and severe pain increases for ninety-nine and eighty-one days, and then gradually subsides. After eighty-one days, it begins again.
It increases again and again, and so on, endlessly. It makes people unable to survive or die, and can only suffer crazily between life and death, so it is called the Talisman of Life and Death! Yang Lianting, aren't you very tough, now...how do you feel?"
Yang Lianting was indeed tough, but under the ever-increasing itching and severe pain of the Life and Death Talisman, he could not hold on. After a moment, he suddenly reached out and scratched the injured area with great force, leaving bloody marks without wanting to stop.
Down.
Dongfang Bubai quickly pressed Yang Lianting's hand and asked, "Dugu Baitian, what exactly do you want to do?"
Zhou Mingdao: "What do I want to do? Then listen carefully, I want you Dongfang Bubai to go to fight on the night of the full moon, and you are not allowed to make disgusting gestures like yours. You must show that you are the best in the world.
Do you understand the majesty of the leader of the Sun Moon God Sect?"
"That's it? Don't you need me to let you down in the decisive battle so that you can win?"
"Hmph, that kind of victory is not something I, Dugu Baitian, would be interested in. You can just use your full strength when the time comes."
Zhou Ming fired a sword energy with his little finger, hitting Yang Lianting, and used the skills in Tianshan Liuyang Palm to temporarily unlock the life and death talisman.
"This time, the life and death talisman will not take effect within fifteen days. When the decisive battle ends, if you win, I will help you completely remove Yang Lianting's life and death talisman. If you lose, I will give Yang Lianting a gift
Go down and see you."
After saying that, Zhou Ming did not wait for Dongfang Bubai to react, and used a toe wind movement, stepped on the sword energy, and flew away with the wind.
Yang Lianting solved the life and death talisman, but he also felt exhausted and complained: "You usually boast that your martial arts are the best in the world, but today you are bullied and you are helpless? You must win the decisive battle in half a month."
"Lianting, don't worry, I will win."
Soon after, Dongfang Bubai convened the congregation and announced a major event.
After more than ten years, Dongfang Bubai showed up for the first time, and what he had to announce must be quite big. In addition, with the recent turmoil in the world, there were also many voices within the Sun Moon God Sect.
At this call, almost all the senior leaders of the church came.
"I asked you to come here, for no other reason than for the Dugu Baitian who appeared in the world recently. I have decided to fight him, make preparations, and head to the capital."
"Master, please think twice. The strange thing about Dugu Baitian's appearance this time is that the chosen location is inside the palace, in the Forbidden City. What if this decisive battle is fake and actually belongs to the imperial court..."
Swish, brush, brush!
Dozens of silver lights flashed by, and the speaker turned into a corpse and fell to the ground.
"Just follow the order, you don't need to say anything!"
Everyone was shocked, but there were a few people who felt very happy when they saw the mighty and domineering Dongfang Bubai sitting high on the throne.
More than ten years ago, the invincible Dongfang Bubai seemed to be back...
On the other side, Zhou Ming left Heimu Cliff and rushed towards the capital.
It's late at night now.
Zhou Ming thought for a while, although entering the palace at this time is relatively simple, it is not shocking enough.
It’s different from Blackwood Cliff.
He went to Blackwood Cliff purely to force Dongfang Bubai to accept the decisive battle, and entering the palace could be a point to enhance his reputation.
In this way, Zhou Ming left a space coordinate outside the capital, then returned to Huashan, and did not return to the capital until around nine o'clock the next morning.
Then, he walked directly to the city gate with great swagger.
"Hey, that person is talking about you, stop it!"
A voice stopped Zhou Ming. When he looked back, he saw an officer pointing at him and said: "Yes, it's you, come here."
Zhou Ming walked over obediently and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Just asking, don't be nervous."
Zhou Ming looked around and said, "Don't others need it?"
In ancient times, people who entered and exited the city gates had to go through inspections, but this was mainly for the carriages and horses. Ordinary people just took a look at them.
For people like Zhou Ming, if the soldiers take a look and make sure they are not the ones with a bounty on them, they will let them go.
Of course, if it were wartime, the situation would be much stricter.
The officer said: "You are different from others, have you practiced martial arts?"
"right."
"Nowadays, people in the martial arts world are more strict with people who have practiced martial arts. You also know what happened in the martial arts community recently. That Dugu Baitian is a lunatic. He actually wants to compete on the top of the Forbidden City?
Therefore, now all the city gates in the capital will specially interrogate martial arts practitioners to understand them."
The officer explained in more detail because he was afraid of offending a big shot in the world.
After explaining, he asked: "What do you want to do when you come to the capital?"
"Jousting."
"A martial arts competition? Why do you come to the capital for a martial arts competition?"
"It's been agreed with someone."
The officer's heart trembled, and he suddenly had a bad premonition: "Who did you make an agreement with...? Where will the competition be held?"
"With Dongfang Bubai, as for the location... didn't you just say it, the top of the Forbidden City!"
The officer was so frightened that he took several steps back and asked tremblingly: "Are you Dugu Baitian? Let me tell you, this is no joke!"
"Oh? You mean, does anyone dare to pretend to be me?"
In fact, it is.
Everyone knows that Dugu Baitian is a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, but he single-handedly defeated the heroes of the Righteous Path on Mount Song.
Such characters are also admired and imitated by many young people.
Therefore, there are indeed many young people who claim to be Dugu Baitian when being questioned.
But then, these people were captured by the officers and soldiers and sent directly to prison. Those with background might be able to be fished out after being detained for a few days, but those without background would probably die directly in prison.
The imperial court used such a fierce style to stop the wind that pretended to be Dugu Baitian.
Until now, no one dares to imitate him.
Seeing his calm appearance, the officer gritted his teeth and said, "Come here, arrest him!"
Zhou Ming flicked his little finger, and the flexible sword energy was thrown out like a long whip, leaving a trail of blood on everyone.
"Can the person pretending to be me even pretend to be a martial artist?"
The officer was horrified and shouted: "Dugu Baitian! It's really Dugu Baitian! Dugu Baitian has come to the capital!"
Driven by the internal energy, the voice was surprisingly loud and attracted the attention of countless people.
What followed was noise and panic.
The commotion was naturally because of Dugu Baitian's famous name. The panic was because everyone knew that Dugu Baitian was an extremely powerful warrior.
In front of him, if you are not careful, you may lose your life.
Zhou Ming, however, did not make any movement, and slowly walked into the city while facing countless gazes.
However, the news that he had entered the city seemed to have wings, and soon it reached the emperor's ears.
The emperor's eyes showed a cold light and said: "We are finally here? Come, order the army and guards to guard the city gate, and absolutely no one is allowed to enter the palace!"
The ministers retreated.
The emperor asked again: "You two, do you think my arrangement can stop Dugu Baitian?"
The two people he asked were none other than Master Fang Zheng, the abbot of Shaolin, and Taoist Master Chongxu, the leader of Wudang.
As Zuo Lengchan expected, these two people had already arrived in the palace. While communicating with the emperor and discussing countermeasures, they were also responsible for protecting the emperor's safety.
Hearing this, Master Fangzheng shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. With Dugu Baitian's force, no matter how large the army is, he can't kill him. As long as he wants to escape, no one in the world can stop him."
Chongxu said: "Dugu Baitian's martial arts is beyond the imagination of everyone in the world, it is simply unbelievable. At the end of the Songshan battle, Dugu Baitian walked on the wind and flew away from Songshan. With this ability, even a hundred thousand troops can
Surrounded, he can easily escape by just flying into the sky."
The emperor sighed and said: "I didn't expect there to be such a strange person in the world. It's a pity that he has no royal skills. He actually wants to set a decisive battle on the top of the Forbidden City?!"
Even so, he had no intention of stopping mobilizing troops.
Being unable to defeat and not being defeated are two different things.
As an emperor, even if he has no way to deal with Dugu Baitian, he still has to show his own attitude.
On the main road south of the capital, Zhou Ming took a piece of meat pie he had just bought from a food stall and took two bites.
Although it is not as delicious as modern snacks, it still has a unique flavor.
