Chapter 1275 Going down the mountain
"Jiang Ziya and his men must be heavily guarding the place. It would be difficult to snatch back the [Seven Arrows Book]." Wen Zhong said with a frown.

At this time, the strongest person in Mengjin Pass was undoubtedly Zhao Gongming, but he was ambushed by the [Seven Arrows Book] and his combat power was almost reduced by 70%.

It can be said that the most powerful person now is Wen Zhong himself.

As the commander-in-chief of the Shang army, he cannot leave the camp easily, especially now that there is no backbone in the entire camp.

It wasn't that he was unwilling to take the risk and go to Qishan to save Zhao Gongming, but he was not sure enough.

He, Wen Zhong, was only the third generation disciple of Jiejiao.

Facing the third-generation disciples of the Chan sect like Yang Jian and Nezha, he was not at all inferior.

Even when facing outer disciples of the Chan sect such as Jiang Ziya, he could still defeat them.

but,

There are also twelve immortal leaders of the second generation of disciples of the Chan sect in the Xiqi camp.

In the past, he would definitely deliver food to people’s homes.

Just when they were in trouble, Su Qin once again gave a solution.

············
A ferocious tiger stepped on the clouds and flew quickly through the air.

A Taoist priest was carried on the back of a fierce tiger with a pitch-black body.

The Taoist wore a green turban on his head, which was pulled out in a long line behind him by the wind. His wide sleeves were rustling in the air.

The black tiger landed from the clouds onto the island below.

The island is shrouded in mist and covered with pine and cypress trees.

The black tiger stepped on the green grass and walked step by step towards the depths of the mist and fog.

"I didn't expect Jiang Ziya to actually dare to use the [Seven Arrows Book]." The Taoist said to himself.

This person is Shen Gongbao.

Originally, he was looking for immortals among the three mountains and five peaks, looking for helpers for the Shang Dynasty to fight against Xiqi.

As a result, the talisman on his body vibrated, interrupting his mission.

It made him change direction and come here.

The black tiger stopped and did not continue walking, because there was a fairy palace in front of it.

Shen Gongbao was approaching the Immortal Palace as a tiger, and was about to say hello when he saw three figures appear in front of him.

He was stunned by this situation.

"Where are you three fellow Taoists going?" Shen Gongbao stepped forward and asked in confusion.

"Where are you, Fellow Daoist Shen?" However, he did not get the answer he wanted, but was asked a question in return.

"I came here especially for your brother."

"My brother?"

"Your brother went to Mengjin Pass to support Brother Wen Dao, but he was ambushed by Jiang Ziya using the [Seven Arrows Book], and the situation is in jeopardy.

Brother Wen Dao specially asked me to come and seek the three Daoists to rescue me." Shen Gongbao answered honestly.

"How could this be?"

These three figures were none other than Zhao Gongming’s sisters, the Three Goddesses of the Sky, Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao.

"Let's go without delay." Yunxiao immediately gave the order and asked his two sisters to rush to Mengjin Pass.

Shen Gongbao was startled, thinking to himself, "What's going on? Why are they rushing to Mengjin Pass to wade into this muddy water before I even open my mouth?

I thought it would take a lot of effort, but it turned out to be so simple."

"From the looks of you three Taoist friends just now, are you going there?" Shen Gongbao followed the Three Goddesses and asked.

"We were just about to contact other fellow disciples, but we didn't expect you to come."

Not long ago, an order came from the Biyou Palace. The order to lift the house arrest was issued, and everyone was asked to go down the mountain to help Wen Zhong protect Cheng Tang from being destroyed.

Then the Three Goddesses saw Shen Gongbao.

Faced with Shen Gongbao, a disciple of the Chan sect, the Three Goddesses were naturally on guard. The order from Master Tongtian clearly told them that their main purpose of going down the mountain was to deal with the Chan sect disciples.

········
boom! ! ! ! !
Qishan.

Jiang Ziya stationed here with three thousand soldiers.

In the middle of the army was a magic platform, where Jiang Ziya was casting a spell to activate the [Seven Arrows Book] to shoot Zhao Gongming's soul.

Suddenly four figures appeared in the sky.

The vibrations from their bodies were so terrifying that they frightened all the ordinary soldiers and made them collapse to the ground. Even though Jiang Ziya was a cultivator, he felt terrified and stopped what he was doing.

Jiang Ziya looked up and found three figures in front of him. Their faces were obscured by the hazy mist and he could not see them clearly. However, he was very familiar with the figure next to them. It was Shen Gongbao.

Jiang Ziya was just about to give a passionate speech about conquering King Zhou, but he heard an angry shout.

"It was you, a despicable villain, who secretly murdered my brother!"

"No need to say more to this idiot who is still counting money after being sold. Saving people is the most important thing."

Then a palm print fell from the sky, and under Jiang Ziya's desperate eyes, he was directly killed on the altar.

Although Jiang Ziya was killed by Bixiao, it was Taoist Lu Ya who actually caused his death.

[The Seven Arrows Book] is not a unique magic weapon.

It was a widely circulated acquired magic weapon, otherwise Wang Tianjun and his companions would have known through divination that Zhao Gongming was assassinated by the [Seven Arrows Book].

Rather than saying that the [Seven Arrows Book] is a magic weapon, it is better to say that it is a curse secret technique.

The price of using this secret technique is luck.

Jiang Ziya was defeated for three consecutive days, and a lot of his luck was consumed.

Even if Taoist Lu Ya or Taoist Randeng came to perform the [Seven Arrows Book], they would still be killed by the backlash of their luck on the first day.

If Jiang Ziya had not been the protagonist of heaven and earth in this era, he would have been killed by the loss of luck on the first day of worship.

At the moment of Jiang Ziya's death, Taoist Lu Ya, who was sitting in the Xiqi camp, was terrified and immediately slipped away on the pretext that the matter was settled.

·············
Inside Mengjin Pass,

"Why!!!

It was my fault as the eldest brother. I didn't listen to Sister Yunxiao and insisted on going down the mountain, which led to this disaster." Zhao Gongming said with emotion, and it was obvious from his words that he deeply regretted it.

Wen Zhong was very embarrassed when he heard this.

"I made a mistake myself, and today I left my three sisters behind. This is my fault."

It was Su Qin who asked Shen Gongbao to invite the Three Goddesses of the Sky.

Zhao Gongming naturally knew how powerful the Three Goddesses were, but he was afraid that his sister would be involved in the killing and end up like him, so he said nothing.

However, after Su Qin's persuasion, Zhao Gongming knew that if he died, his three sisters would also suffer the same fate, so he agreed to let Shen Gongbao go and invite the Three Sisters to come.

“Brother, you don’t have to do this.

Even if it weren't for my brother's incident, we might have come down the mountain soon." Bixiao comforted Zhao Gongming.

"What?" Zhao Gongming was confused.

"Not long ago, the Biyou Palace announced the master's decree, asking all Jiejiao disciples to go down the mountain to help Yin Shang resist Xiqi."

"This..." Wen Zhong was overjoyed.

"Sister Yunxiao, why did our master suddenly change his mind? Didn't he tell us to stay indoors before?" Zhao Gongming asked puzzledly.

Yun Xiao also shook his head and said, "I don't know, but from the information revealed by my senior brother who is a hundred years older than my master, it seems that this order was triggered by the Tai Chi Diagram that Fellow Daoist Wen sent back to the Biyou Palace not long ago."
