Chapter 67: Forced to

I didn’t quite understand the meaning of these four words before. I thought that people would make a basic restraint and prediction for their own actions. How could there be a saying that forced people to go to Liangshan? Is there no other way to go except Liangshan?

In fact, Chen Chengyi is basically a diehard. Isn’t he also inexplicably pushed by fate to face one battle after another and get involved in one storm after another that he can’t imagine?

But it’s not necessarily that I’m stubborn, it’s that I’m unwilling to admit that I’ve been pushed by fate onto another path. What I hold in my hands and refuse to let go of is always the same thing: a place with beautiful scenery, where I and the people I love can live a simple and contented life.

I feel that once I admit that I have been forced to Liangshan, then it is time for me to soberly give up that dream, and when I am already in Liangshan.

But at this moment, when that voice fell, a surprise came from a strange voice, shouting, “Where are they?” At that moment, I realized for the first time that I was really forced onto Liangshan, unable to catch my breath for even a moment, and could only face such a massacre and such a chaotic situation.

At this moment, I no longer had the words “what should I do?” in my head. I didn’t even look at my master to ask for his opinion, and I walked out of the alley, bidding farewell to this place of temporary safety.

I had been forced to this point, so what was there to escape? My master followed me closely behind, sighing and saying, “A chaotic situation is not necessarily a dead end. You can still fight your way out of chaos… This decision is not bad.”

Without saying anything, Master just showed his support for my decision at this time.

After recognizing my situation and position, I was more lucid than ever. Although we were on the run, it didn’t necessarily mean that we were hiding. In fact, at that moment, I looked back on my life like lightning.

I realized that I had never taken the initiative in the face of fate, but had always been pushed forward passively. This time, the battle had given me a huge spiritual boost, and I was faced with the most desperate situation I had ever wanted to escape from. When I discovered that I could not escape from the despair, I realized that there was only one way to face the thousands of soldiers behind me!

So, don’t run away, right? Shouldn’t I take the initiative in the face of fate? Since fate has given me such an arrangement, I will do my best to do it. When things are done to the extreme, it is inevitable that you will find that you have finally surpassed fate.

This is the meaning of man conquering nature.

I walked calmly step by step. In my eyes, I saw my subordinate, who was jumping up and down excitedly in the chaos around me, and I saw the king, who was originally lazy and hurriedly running over…

At that moment, he also saw me.

Compared to Yazi, this holy king is much more low-key. I didn’t notice him before, and I even thought that this person was ordinary in every way except for his lazy temperament. I didn’t find anything special, but in this eye contact, I discovered that the eyes of this holy king were so different, like a deep pool that wanted to suck people in.

“It really is you, Jiang Lichun and Chen Chengyi.” The Holy King looked at us and said… and he raised his hand, and several subordinates quickly gathered around him.

“Catch them.” As if he didn’t care about us, and without waiting for our answer, the Holy King resumed his lazy appearance and directly ordered his subordinates.

Those subordinates naturally dared not disobey the order of the holy king, and perhaps because the credit for capturing us might be great, after he gave the order, they began to gather and rushed towards us. Faced with this situation, I was not unprepared. At that moment, I also ran quickly, and at the same time, the secret method I learned in Guidaowan was activated, and a spiritual force rushed through the acupuncture points at the back of my head.

The familiar power of the earth began to surge into my body, and as I ran, I realized that I really had a certain talent for magic. I often used this dangerous secret method in a hurry, and it never went wrong once. This can’t be explained as simple luck, can it? I don’t know why, but I always think of the illusion I saw, the one who was trying to deduce magic on the lawn.

Is this talent related to my past life as a Taoist monk?

However, the time of haste does not allow one to think too much. At this speed, in just a few seconds, I had already rushed to the entrance of the alley. I saw the scene on the main street again. At this moment, it could be said to be a bloody mess.

I couldn’t count the number of people who had fallen. Many people in the town had fallen, and Yang Sheng’s subordinates had also fallen in the town, scattered and scattered… At the east end of the street, the group of old men chanting the law were chanting harder and harder, and their movements looked like a group of lunatics to people.

They were all exhausted, and their thin hair was sticking to their scalp in a messy mess… This kind of magic made them look like they were overdrawing their vitality, but under the influence of the qi field on the main street, my divine eye automatically opened. In just that instant, I could already see the power that had been scattered throughout the heavens and earth quickly gathering among them, undergoing a strange transformation through their magic, and then dispersing again, being imposed on the people of the town.

I immediately understood why the people of the small town were so fierce and could rival the monsters under Yang Sheng’s power… It was because these witchcrafts provided them with power, coupled with their beliefs and blood support, that it was not surprising that they could fight like this.

I also remembered that night, during the battle in the warehouse, Qiangzi seemed to have used this kind of witchcraft to provide everyone with strength and spiritual support.

Not far away, there were about a hundred people, also gathered together, forming a simple but strange pattern. It should be a formation? They were also practicing magic, or using witchcraft collectively, but instead of collecting and transforming the power of heaven and earth, they were constantly concentrating their own streams of blood-colored power, converging toward a single goal.

This group of people should be Yang Sheng’s target, those with the bloodline of the Ancestor God… I don’t know what that bloody energy is, but they are converging on a single target, that is, the remnant soul of Qiongqi!

Qiongqi’s remnant soul and Yazi were fighting… To be precise, there were several people sitting behind Yazi, the ones who had been sitting in the off-road vehicle together. They were now using the simplest combined attack formation to provide Yazi with support in terms of spiritual power.

Even so, Jiezi looked extremely disheveled, his uniform completely torn… revealing the tangled muscles beneath, and some blood flowing on top. I don’t know how it happened.

I just saw him and Qiongqi colliding with each other over and over again… He seemed to be screaming, but in fact he was silent. At least I couldn’t hear any sound leaking out… I don’t know much about the Buddhist lion’s roar, but I believe this must be a higher level of application?

In a short moment, it was not enough for me to see more clearly, and I didn’t want to look closely again. After all, this battlefield was different from the battlefield in Gui Dawan. Here, people who lived in the secular world were alive. Watching them fall one by one with blood, the sense of sadness among the tribes was impossible to stop.

At that moment, I had already collided with the subordinate who was charging at the front… I felt like I had crashed into a steel plate, hard and cold. The impact made my whole body ache. This was beyond the power of normal humans, and it was more troublesome. At least after I opened a secret cave, my power was not comparable to ordinary people!

That’s not enough. I also let out a yell and quickly opened a second secret cave. More power surged through my muscles. I felt very funny. I’m obviously a Taoist, why am I forced to fight again and again?

After opening the second secret cave, these subordinates were no match for me… After all, they were people who had been transformed by Yang Sheng. This kind of transformation against the heavens was already a very remarkable thing to take a step forward, and how much more against the heavens could it be?

I quickly broke out of the encirclement of these subordinates and then turned around to pull my master and rushed towards the east of the town.

But at this moment, I felt a chilling sensation. Suddenly, I felt as if my brain had been stabbed. The pain was indescribable. I couldn’t help but moan and suddenly hugged my head.
