The carriage carrying Lin Xi was still moving forward, but Lin Xi was still unable to move in the dim carriage.

Time is passing by very quickly.

Midsummer has passed and late autumn has entered.

During the transition between summer and autumn of this year, the people of Yunqin began to know that many earth-shattering events had happened in the huge empire.

General Wenren, who guarded the Biluo Tomb in the westernmost part of the empire and had forced the ancient Tang and Zang Kingdom to completely give up the Prajna Corridor and made the fifteen tribes of the Western Yi tribes afraid to enter the Biluo Tomb again, actually secretly colluded with the Western Yi bandits to rebel and even assassinated the prince.

The entire Zhengwu Division, which the Yunqin people used to call the military, went through a major purge.

Seventeen officials of the third rank and above were dismissed from their posts, and 21 officials of the sixth rank and above were executed. Some cases of killing border civilians and pretending to receive military merit that had been suppressed by the Biluoling border troops were also re-examined.

There were hundreds of very ordinary non-commissioned officers involved in the case, and all of them were executed or imprisoned according to law.

Not limited to Zhengwu Division, other Yunqin divisions have also made many changes in some third-grade and above ranks.

The entire Yunqin court knew that the current emperor had lost his mind because of the death of the prince. He even had a confrontation with nine elders in the political hall and refused to give in. The final result was even the death of the old man named Huang.

Limited to days.

In other words, the old man surnamed Huang, who controls most of Yunqin's construction supervision matters, controls many mines in Yunqin, and is fully supported by Qingliu from all over Yunqin, also sacrificed his own life to force Yunqin to

The emperor took half a step back.

As early as last winter, before the Imperial City of Zhongzhou started planning for Emperor Yunqin to come to Qingluan College in person, the entire Yunqin court already knew that the old man named Huang was approaching his end of life and had already wanted to give up his position behind the curtain.

The entire Yunqin court has been secretly fighting over this for a long time. With the efforts of many forces, it has become clear who can finally take this position. It is either the Wen family or the Leng family.

All the smart people in the Yunqin court knew that the old man surnamed Huang who officially mentioned the word "closed eyes" could not stay in this world for many days, so they were just waiting to see whether the Wen family or the Leng family would finally take the seat.

In that position, what kind of storm will be caused after the death of the old man surnamed Huang.

The emperor was furious and lost his mind. He was at odds with some of the pillars of Yunqin and was close to breaking up. The entire huge Yunqin Empire was in turmoil. This autumn equinox made people panic. However, the culprit of all this, Wenren Cangyue, was still not put to death.

Everyone knew that if Wenren Cangyue could be captured or killed, it would surely reduce some of the emperor's anger and restore some of his sanity. However, Wenren Cangyue still disappeared without a trace amid the encirclement and interception of the huge revenge machine of the Yunqin Empire.

…

Autumn always comes earlier in Da Mang than in Yun Qin.

In many places in Damang, wheat and highland barley have been planted in the forests and on the land near the water. In many villages surrounded by walnut trees and apple trees, people who are busy with farm work are already repairing the fences used for livestock to spend the winter.

Someone used white ash to draw huge auspicious patterns on the mud walls in the village.

The wind pushed the long white clouds in the sky across the simple but equally majestic Damang King's City.

On a border far away from Damang King's City, in a village where wheat and highland barley are grown, a thin, middle-aged man with an ordinary face wearing an old cloth robe and straw sandals was walking through a field.

threshing floor.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man with a dull expression sensed something, and his whole body flew forward like a flowing cloud.

"Li Ku!"

At the same moment, a faint old shout sounded.

All the piles of dry hay on the threshing floor burned with this faint shout, turning into balls of blazing fire.

The tongues of fire were rolling, and the fire was strange and ethereal. The dense burdock growing beside the threshing floor turned into strips of grease and turned into strips of golden tongues of fire.

The hard ground also burned and cracked, and sand and gravel jumped up one after another, gathered in the flames, and rushed towards Li Ku's body.

There was a dense crackling sound.

Flames and countless small but terrifyingly powerful red gravels impacted his body, and his ordinary old moon-white cloth robe was suddenly riddled with holes.

There were also some burnt black marks on the skin of his body.

However, there was no expression on his face, and he didn't even turn his head for a moment. Instead, following the force of the blow, his whole body flew out from the ground at a speed that was unimaginable to the world, sending all the flames behind him away.

Leave it far behind.

A bamboo branch stabbed his cheek from the side and front.

When it first appeared in the air, it was just a slender green bamboo branch that looked like ordinary green bamboo in the world. However, when it flew more than ten feet in front of him, the bamboo branch turned red and burned, and the flames condensed into a sheet.

A bamboo leaf is like a burning magic bamboo growing in the void.

Li Ku frowned slightly, but he still didn't look at the magic bamboo.

He tapped lightly with a finger on his right hand, and with a "bang" sound, a ball of air enveloped the magic bamboo and exploded to pieces, with all the sparks rolled out.

An angry scream sounded in the distance.

Li Ku's figure still did not stagnate at all, his body was still flying straight forward, and this magic bamboo did not even hinder him in any way.

Countless crimson beads followed a unique roaring sound, rising from the sky and falling down like hailstones.

Then each bead vibrated and turned into a ball of flames, like a shrunken demon god, falling down, forming an unimaginable rain of fire.

Li Ku still didn't make any unnecessary movements, and still moved forward in a straight line, or in other words, escaped.

Every spark hit his body and made a slight sound. The hole-riddled cloth on his body seemed to turn into black ash. However, under the pressure of his body and the powerful forces around him, it turned into black ash.

It was crushed into something almost stone-like.

The skin on his body turned fiery red and shimmered, like a ceramic embryo that had been burned for days and nights.

But these... were not enough to stop Li Ku, who was watching the shrimps on the roadside and enlightening.

His speed still did not slow down at all.

At this moment, all the flames in front of him opened up.

A spinning flying sword, carrying a violent and domineering aura, struck straight at him.

The style of this flying sword is very ordinary, black and red, with no sharp edges on both edges. It looks like a sword polished with ordinary rocks from Purgatory Mountain.

This flying sword doesn't even have a hilt, but there is a silver meteorite ball inlaid at the end of the sword body.

This silver meteorite ball looks like the runes of the sun, moon and stars growing naturally.

This is the strongest flying sword in Purgatory Mountain, the Seven-Yam Demon Sword!

Li Ku raised his head.

The moment he raised his head, his eyebrows and eyelashes were instantly burned to ashes by the flames.

An extremely powerful force rushed out of his body and converged into his hands.

A strange ring appeared in his hand, a simple silvery and reddish ring covered with silkworm-like runes.

"Duh!"

The ring and the Seven-Yam Demon Sword collided together, making a sound that was not like a metal collision at all. It was like the fleshy bodies of two gods and demons colliding hard.

The Seven-Yam Demon Sword in front was shot and flew out.

However, Li Ku's body also trembled slightly for the first time, shattering the surrounding air, and there was a slight pause.

The Qiyao Demonic Sword stopped forcefully in the air in front of him. Just by stopping, Li Ku knew that Wenren Cang Yue was indeed as powerful as the legend said.

He knew that he could not get rid of this sword and this person's entanglement, so the power he had accumulated in his body no longer held back, and all of it surged out of his body.

His forward body speed doubled again!

The ring in his hand emitted a strange red light, which was more dazzling than the scorching sun in the sky at that moment, making the scorching sun in the sky seem to dim and turn into a blood moon.

All the flames in front of him collapsed like fear, and his eyes were fixed on the iron-like body of Wenren Cang Yue in front of him.

Wen Ren Cang Yue's thick black brows also frowned deeply.

For the first time in his life, General Wenren, who practiced the most powerful close-quarters swordsmanship in the world, did not take the initiative to get close, but chose a defensive stance. The moment Li Ku broke through the fire, he also felt the fatal danger.

The power in his body also surged out violently again, and the power of Lan Xing penetrated deeply into his body again, making it seem like many blue apricot flowers were blooming on his face.

Under his violent power, the Seven-Yam Demon Sword in front of him no longer looked like a sword, but like an iron rod of heavenly punishment, hitting Li Ku hard.

"boom!"

The air between him and Li Ku exploded in all directions, forming circles of spiral waves.

"Duh!"

However, what made his pupils shrink instantly was that Li Ku's ring collided with his flying sword. The flying sword, which gathered his powerful power, was unable to stop it at all, and was knocked away by another blow.

Li Ku's face turned slightly pale, and there was some blood in his nose, but his body did not stop moving forward at all.

Hearing Ren Cang Yue shouted fiercely, Qiyao flying sword swept across.

"Duh!"

The Qiyao Flying Sword was hit to an unknown location. Wenren Cang Yue shook her body, took two steps back, and spurted a mouthful of blue blood from her mouth.

At this moment, a soft shout came from far behind.

A fire lotus came from behind with a wall of fire.

Seventeen figures flitted in front of Wenren Cang Yue.

"Puff puff!"….

Li Ku waved the ring with his hand and maintained an attacking posture. The body of the cultivator holding a powerful soul weapon in front of him collapsed one after another. In an instant, seventeen soul weapons and seventeen groups of broken flesh and blood exploded.

He passed through this bloody corridor.
