Jinyiwei's psychic case: the opening is Lingbo Weibu

Chapter 1251

The Tartar adjutant, who was muttering these words to himself, followed the path of the soil being turned over and looked toward Zhu Qing at the end of the path.

The Heavenly Official, who stood with his arms crossed in front of him, had his Taoist robe and sleeves torn to shreds. His exposed arms, though seemingly uninjured, were emitting wisps of white smoke.

This clearly shows that their own celestial official is struggling to absorb the residual force from the opponent's attack.

'Uh-huh. '

After a few breaths, Zhu Qing suddenly lowered his arms.

Unlike his domineering aura just now, his face was not only ferocious, but his eyes were also filled with vigilance.

Clearly, this unexpected "greeting gift" from the other party had already exceeded his understanding of experts in the mortal realm.

"Spiritual energy mixed with earthly evil energy?"

"The ultimate Yin and Yang techniques?"

"Dual cultivation of magic and martial arts?"

"The fairyland on land?"

"Who on earth is this person who dares to come to the North Gate and oppose me, the Heavenly Official?"

'Hiss.'

After Zhu Qing revealed all the secrets behind the opponent's attack, the only outsider present—the adjutant—couldn't help but gasp.

So the mysterious expert who just controlled the formations of the Earth Prison Pass and the Yama Pass, and made the Heavenly Official suffer a setback, has such a powerful foundation?

Generally speaking, Zhu Qing refers to himself as "this Heavenly Venerable" when speaking to others.

But as he said this, the adjutant noticed a detail: the other party referred to himself as "this Heavenly Official."

'Celestial Venerable' is an honorific title; but 'Celestial Official' is his position in the celestial realm, or the name of the institution he belongs to.

In other words, when Zhu Qing said this, he also implied that he was "borrowing the tiger's power".

He directly revealed his identity and background!

It also carries an element of intimidation.

After all, in the mortal realm, and even in the heavens and the earth...

The "Heavenly Officials" organization is enough to make any master wary.

However, this detail also shows that Zhu Qing did not have the confidence to completely overwhelm his opponent.

This was something the adjutant had never seen before, given his understanding of the Heavenly Official.

Yes!

Who exactly is the other party?

They also came from the Heavenly Realm?

Or perhaps, a demon preparing to stir up trouble?

Or perhaps, the Great Celestial Master himself has arrived? Or has the Heavenly Daoist also come down from the mountain?

Thinking of this, his gaze followed Zhu Qing's, looking towards the dust-filled [Earth Prison Pass] and [Yanluo Pass] formations.

'Snap, snap.'

The sound of firm, powerful footsteps reached their ears from afar.

At that moment, everyone, including Zhu Qing, held their breath.

'call! '

Until a night breeze blew away the dust.

The other party's figure appeared before them in a concrete and tangible form.

Gazing at the dazzling crimson python robe, and the black gauze hat and cloud-patterned boots unique to Ming Dynasty officials…

The adjutant, who was hiding to the side, blurted out, "The Ming Dynasty, the Embroidered Uniform Guard?"

After saying this, he connected it with some information he had recently learned, and then his expression suddenly changed as he added, "He, he, he is the Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty, and he was just conferred the title of 'Duke'."

"Xu Shan, the God of War of the Ming Dynasty, the number one Jinyiwei, and known as the 'Butcher of Men'."

'boom.'

Upon hearing this, the Tartar guards who were hiding nearby couldn't help but erupt in an uproar.

Although they were in the north, they were not unfamiliar with the name 'Xu Shan'.

The news that he was leading the team to oversee the overall situation in Beiliang was released (and the Tartars learned of it), and the entire Beiguan area and even the Tartar generals were on high alert.

At first, these Tartars scoffed at the name "Xu the Butcher".

After learning that he had a record of slaughtering celestial beings and destroying earth demons within the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and had single-handedly pacified the Miao territory, no one dared to underestimate him anymore.

Regardless of whether the news is true or false.

He was entrusted with an important task by the Ming emperor, to oversee the entire Northern Liang.

Clearly, he's not a good-for-nothing!

But no matter how hard they racked their brains, they could never have guessed that the other side would lead its troops, alone, into the northern pass.

Given the current situation in Beiguan, and his ability to silently control the formations of [Earth Prison Pass] and [Yanluo Pass]...

Furthermore, judging from his performance in just giving [Heavenly Official] a small but significant setback.

Xu Rentu is no ordinary person!

However, his unbelievably young and handsome face made people feel shocked, wary, and incredulous.

He must have practiced some kind of divine skill to reverse his aging process.

Or perhaps, they are simply not very old to begin with.

They can accept the former.

But the latter is terrifying.

Not only them, but even Zhu Qing, who was directly confronting them and was now locking onto each other's positions from a distance, had a sense of unreality.

He never expected that the one who would cause him such a setback would be just such a young man.

Moreover, the opponent did indeed unleash spiritual energy mixed with earthly evil energy.

"Zhu Ji said that her elder brother Zhu Qing was far stronger than him."

"Let this prince wait to be purged!"

"Judging solely from the strength that Venerable Zhu just displayed..."

"It's just so-so!"

'boom.'

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Shan swung his arm.

In that instant, the [Earth Prison Pass] and [Yanluo Pass] formations, which had just been torn apart by Zhu Qing, were instantly restored to their original state. Moreover, the extremely aggressive scarlet aura quickly enveloped the entire courtyard.

'puff! '

"Ow."

Those Tartar experts who had been secretly watching, intending to launch a sneak attack on Xu Shan at a crucial moment, were all successively assaulted by this energy.

Those with stronger abilities immediately coughed up blood and lost their fighting capacity.

Those low-level henchmen, after screaming in agony, died instantly!

Even Zhu Qing, whose domain was a self-contained system built upon his own spiritual energy, was constantly eroded and crushed.

This overwhelming divine power, which even Zhu Qing feared, surged towards him like a tidal wave.

What shocked and angered him even more was...

The key information revealed in the words just spoken by this young man in front of us.

The opponent has already fought against his own brother, Zhu Ji.

Judging by this, even his own brother lost!

and then?

run away?

Or... is he dead?

They, the Heavenly Officials, each possess their own divine seal. Although they have descended to the mortal realm, they remain within the Heavenly Officials' temple!

If the Heavenly Official dies, the Divine Seal will shatter automatically.

If he were in the Heavenly Realm, he would have received the answer immediately.

But now we are in the mortal realm.

It is simply impossible to obtain this information.

"What...what did you do to Zhu Ji?"

At this moment, Zhu Qing, who had completely lost his composure, immediately blurted out a question.

In an instant, the heavily injured Tartar experts who were still alive at the scene stopped wailing and pricked up their ears, wanting to hear the answer.

Zhu Ji, that's the "Heavenly Official" they revered.

Could it be that they've lost too?

What did you do to him?

"Try it for yourself."

'Uh-huh. '

As Xu Shan unleashed his inner strength, the original energy that originally belonged to Zhu Ji but had now been refined by him instantly permeated the entire courtyard.

Sensing this familiar yet strange aura, Zhu Qing's expression changed drastically, and he trembled with rage.
