Chapter 6856: Resurrection

Chapter 6856: Resurrection
Wang Mao originally had no intention of participating in the martial arts competition. He came to Chang'an more to see the performance of his sons and grandsons. After all, his son Wang Luo also reached the fifth level of smelting.

However, after he recovered to the age of 25, Wang Mao felt that rather than watching his son's performance, it would be better for him to participate in this kind of competition himself. After all, his control over strength far exceeded that of his son. There was nothing to say, just go for it!

The three first-generation warriors walked away from the Weiwei with their arms around each other, laughing and preparing to go to the registration office for the so-called Grand Martial Arts Show to sign up.

“Speaking of which, the first match of the martial arts competition is a group match, which usually consists of six people. Who should we look for for the remaining three? I still have some connections in Mount Tai in Qingzhou, and I can also find some sixth-level smelting. Then we can bring my nephews with us.” Wang Mao said to the two elder brothers with a smile. While regaining his youth, his mind was also restored to a youthful state to a certain extent.

"Are Baxiu and Huangxiu eating at the Shaofu's place? Let's go and call them up first. As for Hou Jing, he doesn't seem to like participating in this kind of activity, but if we invite him, he won't refuse. Anyway, we don't really need him to take action. He's mainly used to strengthen our reconnaissance capabilities." Guang Yuan smiled arrogantly. Originally, he and Zhang Huang were just planning to join in the martial arts show, because they could easily kill people with their moves. Whether the world was small or not didn't make much difference to them, but if they destroyed the will-body with one sword, something would definitely go wrong.

However, when Wang Mao recovered, he was able to take part in the competition. Wang Mao was at the real eighth level. Even though he had many moves banned like the other two, beating the sixth level was a piece of cake for him. When he encountered the tough seventh level, of course Guang Yuan would take up the magic sword. It was impossible that Guang Yuan could penetrate the divine protection of Lu Bu and Guan Yu with one sword and then destroy the will body of the seventh level.

Zhang Huang might be able to do this, but Guangyuan's willpower could not be so exaggerated, so of course he had to participate in this competition.

Even if he encounters a top-level seventh-level warrior who can beat Guang Yuan, Wang Mao will also use the God-Slaying Attack. The old man has no moral integrity. Let's beat the kid together. We can't lose.

"Ah, they have also regained their youth?" Wang Mao was stunned at first, then he roughly compared the people in his mind and realized who his two brothers were talking about. He asked with some surprise.

"There's the Nanjun brother you just met. He just pulled them together, and then regrouped and recovered." Zhang Huang said with a smile, "So we have six people now, just enough to form a six-person team. Although we may suffer a little due to our basic quality, our smelting level is high. You see, we have at least one eighth-level and five seventh-level, right?"

Wang Mao was delighted when he heard this. How could this team lose? Who are they looking down on?

The three of them walked arm in arm to the Shaofu's side, and just in time saw Baxiu and Huang Xiu walking out with their feet turned outward, obviously because they were too full.

"Aren't you two going too far?" Guang Yuan was somewhat surprised when he saw Baxiu walking unsteadily. How much did he eat? Even though it was a special meal that was free, aren't you really afraid of wasting it?

"How delicious! This is the most delicious meal I've had in all these years. Is this Wang Mao?" Huang Xiu looked at Guang Yuan arrogantly, and then his eyes fell on Wang Mao, who looked somewhat familiar. Considering the situation of Guang Yuan and Zhang Huang, this guy could only be Wang Mao.

"Yes, Brother Huang, Brother Ba." Wang Mao nodded to Huang Xiu. He knew this group of people more or less. "Did you take the muscle-building and bone-strengthening injection? Are you planning to gain weight and height?"

"Yeah, I met a guy called Zhao Zhen before. I was obviously stronger than him, and then we bumped fists and it was me who flew out." Bashu said unhappily, "So there's a chance to build muscle and strengthen bones here, so I'll do it too."

"Zhao Zhen." Wang Mao nodded. "That guy is quite powerful and well-known in Yanzhou."

"I was quite famous in Luoyang back then." Bashu said unhappily.

"That's right." Zhang Huang thought about it and realized that what Bashu said was not false.

"By the way, where is Hou Jing?" Guang Yuan asked, looking at Baxiu in surprise. He and Zhang Huang ate something in the morning and left. Their oath was temporary and there was no need to waste the country's assets, so they did not take the injection. They just got a badge from the Shaofu and lived here.

"Hou Jing said it was a rare visit to Chang'an and he wanted to look around. Then he had breakfast and left. Only Lao Huang and I have been eating here until now." Baxiu explained casually. Although he and Hou Jing have known each other for decades, Hou Jing doesn't seem to like communicating with people.

"Well, let's get Hou Jing here and form a six-person group to participate in the martial arts performance." Wang Mao said bluntly, and Ba Xiu's face lit up when he heard it. When the proposal was made before, the other people had no interest. Guang Yuan and Zhang Huang's reasons were very clear. Huang Xiu had no interest because he had used up his biggest trump card before, and Hou Jing seemed to have no interest in this matter at all.

But now that Wang Mao has said that he wants to participate in this competition, Guangyuan and Zhang Huang must have agreed. Including himself, there are already four people, and Huang Xiu can participate purely or not. In this way, only Hou Jing is left. Will Hou Jing refuse when the five of them ask him to make up the number?

No, although Hou Jing has no interest in the grand martial arts performance and just wants to watch the excitement, feel the changes in Chang'an, and recall the differences between the past and now, he will not refuse if the five old brothers ask him to join in. Hou Jing will not fight with the younger generation, but he will still be a tool and do some reconnaissance, will locking, remote killing and other things.

In this way, a complete team is assembled, right?

"It feels like we're missing a healer." Huang Xiu grabbed his hair and said with a headache. After experiencing the healing abilities of Feng Ke and Wang Pa, Huang Xiu felt that a team still needed a healer for combat, which could greatly increase endurance and survivability.

"Forget it. In our situation, we don't need any treatment. We can be defeated even with a team like us. It's useless whether we have treatment or not." Baxiu looked at Huang Xiu with contempt and said, "Old Huang, go to Weiyang Palace and see if there are any brothers from the Southern Army with accumulated defense. Take some of their accumulated defense."

"?" Huang Xiu looked at Bashu with some surprise.

"Don't pretend. We've been together for so many years, how could we really not know where you got your defensive accumulation?" Bashu said unhappily. "There is no one in this world who can accumulate this stuff all by himself. You must have absorbed it from others. Even if the talent of defensive accumulation is exaggerated, it is not enough to withstand the Boundary Breaking Slash and the God-Slaying Spear bombardment, not to mention that you have been hit so many times."

"What the hell are you talking about? Can't it be that I am gifted?" Huang Xiu said with a dark face.

"I firmly believe that you are gifted." Guang Yuan raised his hand and said.

These words seemed to confirm what Bashu said before, making Huang Xiu's face turn a little dark red. Then he groaned and said that he would go back to find his brother who had accumulated defense for the Southern Army, and he would borrow two years of defense accumulation. Okay, this guy admitted it.

"Do you have any special talents?" Wang Mao asked curiously, "I've never heard that talents can be borrowed from others."

"Other talents don't seem to work, but considering the talent stripping, I feel that it cannot be said to be completely useless. As for defense accumulation, it seems that the structure is the same. I always feel that after this talent reaches the level that can be borrowed from others, there is something missing in the middle." Huang Xiu said with some doubts. He is really gifted and has developed the defense accumulation to the level that Wu Qi used to seal the demon god.

Theoretically speaking, humans have no way of developing their defense accumulation to this level, but there are all kinds of birds in the forest. Huang Xiu has developed his defense accumulation to a level that even the great demon gods have not been able to reach. He can even secretly absorb other people's accumulation and stack it on his own.

This is also the key to Huang Xiu's boasting of his invincible defense. Admittedly, the attack removal and idealistic defense here do reduce the difficulty of Huang Xiu's accumulation, but to say that he has not used the defense accumulation for more than 50 years is of course a lie. Even if you have the idealistic defense of the level of Zhang Yong and Wu Xi, you will encounter tough opponents who can penetrate you. There is no way. When you are strong enough, those who come to fight you are all masters.

Just like when Zhang Liang was killing people in the Ganges battlefield, the Kushan elite who came to stop Zhang Liang, from the six-fold backbone to Zena who appeared at the end, it can be said that even the Kushan elite who went to stop Zhang Liang for the first time were not weak, it was just that Zhang Liang was stronger.

"Two years' worth of stock, that should be enough." Bashu thought about Huang Xiu's idealistic defense and attack release, and then stole two years' worth of defense accumulation from other people, coupled with super thick heavy armor, which would be enough.

"Let's go, let's go find Lao Hou. I remember Lao Hou said he wanted to go to Zhuque Street to take a look." Ba Xiu said excitedly. After all, among these six people, Ba Xiu was the only one who wanted to participate in the martial arts performance from the very beginning. The others actually just had the attitude of gangsters.

"Okay then, let's go together." Guang Yuan and the others had nothing to do, so they followed Baxiu to find Hou Jing. As for Wang Mao, after regaining his youth, he was too lazy to take care of his son and grandson.

On the other side, Hou Jing, who was being looked for by Bashu, met her former student.

"Instructor?" Old Lu looked at Hou Jing. His perception at the level of will made him call out tentatively. Zhang Zhong on the side looked at Old Lu strangely.

"Who are you?" Hou Jing looked at Old Lu. He was in his early sixties, but Hou Jing could still recognize his face. Considering the astonishing talent Old Lu showed when he came to Shesheng Camp to learn archery, Hou Jing thought for a while and then recognized him. "Lu Kuan?"

"Yes, yes, it's me, that's me." Old Lu nodded repeatedly, then pulled Hou Jing to set up a table nearby. He and Zhang Zhong came to Chang'an to watch the fun. Zhang Zhong wanted to take part in the martial arts performance, but Old Lu didn't have that idea. He was already over sixty years old and couldn't do it anymore.

"Instructor Hou, are you bound by an oath?" After pulling Hou Jing, who was really embarrassed to face the situation, to the table and ordering four braised dishes and some wine, Old Lu asked with some excitement.

"Yes, bound by an oath." Hou Jing has some social phobia and doesn't like to talk much, but he still wants to communicate with a good student like Lao Lu.

"I've been studying how to do oath binding recently, but I haven't figured it out yet. Instructor, please teach me when you have time." Old Lu rubbed his hands and said, "Are you the only one here?"

"There are a few more, but they are just eating at the Shaofu. I'll go around Chang'an after dinner. I haven't been here for more than ten years." Hou Jing said with some emotion, "It has changed so much."

"What about Master Shi's people?" Old Lu asked with a smile when he saw the emotion on Hou Jing's face. When Old Lu was learning archery in Shesheng, he learned from Shi Gai, Hou Jing and their group. Especially Shi Gai, all his skills were learned by Old Lu.

However, Shi Gai's archery skills are rather brutal, and he doesn't like to do fancy things. He shoots two hundred will-guided arrows a day, and the theory of breaking the will limit in twenty years was made up by Shi Gai. Whether other people would die if they did this is put aside for now, but Shi Gai himself has actually achieved normal will limit breaking by doing this.

So without talking about those messy things, and just talking about power, Shi Gai is still very fierce. In terms of accuracy and power, even now, Shi Gai is still the most brutal one.

"Shi Gai is doing well, just like me now, and so is Bao Tao. But Brother Bai and Brother Han have passed away." Hou Jing said after thinking for a while.

"Time is merciless..." Zhang Zhong added, then fell silent again. What the hell, time is of no use to the Master Hou in front of him.

"Master Hou, please teach me too!" Zhang Zhong said immediately. Hou Jing was a little embarrassed. He couldn't remember Zhang Zhong, but he felt that Zhang Zhong could recognize him. However, this was normal. There were few archers who were teachers, but there were many archers who were students. Most of the archers that teachers could remember were the best and worst students. Considering the outrageous screening mechanism on the battlefield, the bodies of the worst students might have turned into ashes, so it was normal that only the good students were left.

"This is Zhang Zhong. He actually also learned from you, but I am the main one leading them later." Old Lu explained with a smile. There were some problems in teaching archery to Shi Gai's group. Fortunately, after teaching Old Lu, he started to take their place in the class and then successfully taught the next generation.

"I'll tell you about it later, but this is not the correct smelting. You can just use it as a reference. However, there is always a chance to change if you fail." Hou Jing thought for a while and said, indicating that this was her experience of failure.

"There is a chance to change even if you fail? What is that?" Old Lu said in surprise.

"You know about the Southern Army, right?" Hou Jing thought for a moment and asked, "Oh, you know, we took you to visit the Southern Army back then."

"I know. I went there secretly a few times later." Old Lu nodded and said.

"That's fine. There's a brother in the Southern Army who has the talent for stripping. If you fail to smelt the oath binding, you can go to that brother to pull out your oath binding, reassemble it, and then put it back. Although it can't last forever, for archers like us, it should be able to last for one to two years." Hou Jing gave a brief explanation.

How should I put it, groups like veterans always teach some weird things. These extremely dangerous things that shouldn't be transmitted from person to person seem very useful to the veterans, so they naturally began to spread, especially at the top level. It's no longer a secret now.

Similarly, good things must be spread, and the gang must learn to share and so on. This is also reflected in another type of soldiers. Yes, it is the sharp warriors of Weiyang Palace!
Huangfu Song rode in a carriage along the highway into the Weiyang Palace. At this time, the Weiyang Palace warriors, who had been very lazy, also showed their due qualities. In other words, a large group of veteran warriors lined up in a very neat formation in the Weiyang Palace to welcome Huangfu Song's arrival.

However, for Huangfu Song, this kind of welcome would be worse than no welcome. At least if he did not welcome it, he would not have to see so many demons.

That's right, in Huangfu Song's eyes, let alone other elite warriors, the more than 200 veteran elite warriors in the lead can basically be included in the reserve of the Demon God. The aura emanating from their bodies is undoubtedly the aura of a Demon God that is close to or even has already reached perfection.

At this moment, even though Huangfu Song had been mentally prepared to some extent after meeting Zhang Huang and others in Congling, he still felt somewhat desperate when he saw the Binshi demon god running around in the Weiyang Palace.

Damn it, how did the Han Dynasty become like this? Why is it that when I came back from a trip abroad, there are demons everywhere? The majestic Weiyang Palace, where the emperor resides, has become the demons' lair. Where is my dignity, Huangfu Song? Where is my face?

Draw the car curtains, out of sight, out of mind, just pretend you don’t know.

"General Huangfu, do you need anything?" The eunuch on the side saw Huangfu Song pull open the curtains and take a look outside, then close the curtains with an unhappy look on his face, so he hurriedly asked carefully.

"Nothing. I just saw a large number of elite warriors and was filled with emotion. I just felt that Mr. Duan was truly a god back then." Huangfu Song's words were ambiguous, as if he was praising Duan Xing back then, but for some reason, the waiter outside heard a hint of sarcasm in his angry tone.

How can it not be popular?
Huangfu Song followed Duan Xing to learn Rui Shi, and then when they were in Congling, Huangfu Song captured the Demon God Huangfu from his side. Fortunately, he made a prompt decision and gave the Demon God Huangfu to Zhang Huang, who took him for sacrifice and exchanged him for six magic swords. To be honest, Huangfu Song was confused at that time. When he saw the six swords, Huangfu Song began to wonder whether Duan Xing had expected this scene.

In the end, Huangfu Song suppressed Duan Xing's possible speculation with his iron will, because if he thought about it further, Huangfu Song's filter for Duan Xing would not be broken, but would be directly replaced by the filter of hell.

Which good person would hold a funeral for a dead body? I am Huangfu Song, the most powerful general alive in the world. Did I do it? I didn't. What's wrong with you, Duan Yu, to do such a thing? Are you tired of living? It's really amazing!

"I don't know why, but after seeing so many veteran warriors, I feel somewhat uneasy." Huangfu Song muttered with a gloomy look after closing the curtains.

To be honest, Huangfu Song was a man of firm determination. Now that things had come to this, he would not carry out a massacre. Not to mention that massacre was not in line with the universal morality of Chen Xi and Liu Bei, these guys had made outstanding contributions and had fought for the Han Dynasty, so Huangfu Song had to find a reason to kill them. Therefore, Huangfu Song's original idea was to talk about this matter openly after meeting Liu Bei and Chen Xi this time.

See what Chen Xi and Liu Bei think, and then take the next step.

As far as Huangfu Song is concerned, it is a good thing that these people are all in Weiyang Palace. At least they won't be running around everywhere. The strength of the Demon God is not only in terms of physical strength. If we really talk about individual strength, a newborn Demon God is only at the fifth level of smelting. Although it can be considered strong for a soldier, the scattered soldiers are actually quite easy to deal with.

What's really outrageous about the Demon God is that he can be mastered quickly and has no threshold, as well as the research that two crazy guys, Sun Wu and Wu Qi, have done in order to more effectively exert the power of the Demon God.

If it weren't for the oath binding and talent stripping created by Sun Wu, the Demon God would not have been able to complete the second separation after his great success, and then easily give birth to a horrific monster like the Sevenfold Melting.

Without Wu Qi's defense accumulation and demon disintegration, even if the new demon god had an incredible foundation, it would be impossible for him to exert a combat power that was invincible at the same level.

It can be said that without the so-called effective means of controlling the demon god by Sun Wu and Wu Qi, the demon god would never have been so powerful that it cannot be solved now.

Just look at Xiong Yi's performance and you will know. Even if he has Sun Wu's second body separation and the foundation of the seventh level smelting, as long as he cannot use the Heavenly Demon Disintegration and cannot form a defensive accumulation that is close to a defensive force field, the strength of the Demon God is just that, and he cannot even crush the top six levels. But if the Demon God activates the Heavenly Demon Disintegration, he will activate the defensive accumulation that has accumulated for hundreds of years!
To be honest, even if Lu Bu comes, it will take a few hits. At least Lu Bu's map cannon attack cannot instantly kill a monster with hundreds of years of accumulated defense. And the power that a fully activated Sky Demon can burst out can also hurt Pojie.

What's even worse is that there is no threshold to creating such creatures. Even a farmer can start with it. As long as he completes the first round of talent stripping, he can reach this step steadily. The journey will be smooth without any setbacks.

This is extremely serious, so Huangfu Song feels that he must have a good talk with Chen Xi this time and let Liu Bei be prepared to prevent this matter.

"Why do I always feel like I have missed something?" Huangfu Song was a little doubtful, but his hand touched his sword. The fear in his heart made Huangfu Song naturally begin to explore. Damn, the Demon God Huangfu is alive again!

Damn, I can't get up.
