With the defeat of the Eastern Navy, the battle to protect Jingling was a complete victory.

That night, all the people in Jingling held torches to welcome the return of Yang Peng and other victorious troops. Looking at the grateful smiling faces of the people around him, Yang Peng felt a little happy inexplicably.

Li Zitong's death caused thousands of waves, and huge changes occurred in the entire southern separatist regime.

First of all, the newly established Wu State collapsed, and Donghai County was captured by the forces of Xiao Xian, who came from behind and recruited his troops to dominate the south.

A few years later, Xiao Xian became the king, and he was the King of Liang. This will be discussed later.

The chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty really witnessed what it means to sing your side and then our side comes on the scene. Various separatist regimes sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain, especially in the south. When Du Fuwei died, Li Zitong immediately emerged to take over, and now Li Zitong is dead.

, another Liang Wang Xiao Xian appeared, and he had no time to spare at all.

Of course, for Yang Peng, he didn't care at all about all this, because his ambition was not to dominate the world and separate one party from another, but to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.

In order to celebrate this victory in the city defense battle, the Jingling Army arranged a grand dinner to welcome Yang Peng, Shang Xiuxun and thousands of Pegasus Ranch warriors.

Yang Peng took a few bites casually and exchanged greetings with everyone. Then he said goodbye to everyone on the grounds that he was tired and went back to his room to rest.

Everyone enthusiastically sent him to his room, and all kinds of words of praise and adoration were expressed beyond words.

As they said, today's Yang Peng is a great hero in the hearts of every Jingling people, because it was his superb martial arts that repelled the attack of the powerful Eastern Navy.

After returning to the room, Yang Peng did not rest immediately, but sat cross-legged and began to practice.

As the 100,000 points of innate spiritual energy were gradually consumed, a strong cyclone was injected into the Yin meridians on the heart of his right hand, then turned up the Yang meridians on the middle finger, walked along the Jiang Palace along the right elbow, passed through the Chonglou, passed through the Chong meridians, and settled in Dantian.

.

At this time, he only felt warm and indescribably comfortable.

When all the 100,000 innate spiritual energy points were exhausted and absorbed by him, Yang Peng's aura surged, and the Heavenly Demon Dafa directly broke through to the seventeenth level. He was only one step away from the legendary eighteenth level.

And because of the enhancement of the Heavenly Demon Technique, his martial arts realm has been upgraded to a level, reaching the peak of the Grand Master. He is only one step away from the Grand Master.

In the novel, in the later period, Wanwan was promoted to the rank of Grand Master because she cultivated the Heavenly Demon Dharma to the highest level, the 18th level.

Yang Peng glanced at the panel, which showed that if he wanted to upgrade the Heavenly Demon Technique to the eighteenth level, he would need to consume 500,000 innate spiritual power points.

Not too much.

With the improvement of Heavenly Demon Dafa, whether it is Heavenly Demon Qi, Heavenly Demon Sound, Heavenly Demon Kung Fu, Heavenly Magic Field, Heavenly Demon Clone, etc., they have all been greatly improved and increased.

With his current strength, he can already be compared with the Yin Queen Zhu Yuyan and the four great holy monks.

A little hidden demon can live up to his expectations and is no longer taken seriously by him.

"It's time to settle the score with this guy Bian Fuhuan."

He once promised Mrs. Dongming that he would go back with Bian Buhua's head, and Shan Wanjing also made it clear that he would help her kill Bian Buhua, which shows that mother and daughter hated Bian Buhua.

Mrs. Dongming was kind to him, and Shan Wanjing was even more considerate. He would definitely help them avenge this revenge.

Early the next morning, Yang Peng followed Shang Xiuxun and his party back to Pegasus Ranch.

As soon as he returned to Pegasus Castle, he heard the bad news that Lu Miaozi sealed himself in a sarcophagus and died of illness.

Before passing away, he called Shan Wanjing, handed her a bundle and asked it to be handed over to Yang Peng. Then he activated the self-destruction device in the attic and passed away.

Yang Peng accepted the burden and sighed in his heart.

A generation of amazingly talented all-rounders turned into a pile of loess and rested underground, which made people sigh.

The death of Lu Miaozi further strengthened Yang Peng's Taoist heart, which is to devote himself to martial arts, reach the peak of martial arts, live as long as the sky, and live as long as the earth.

After taking a look at the items in the bag, in addition to basic secrets about mechanisms and garden theory, there were also several human skin masks.

Among these items, the human skin mask is especially the most practical.

Now his reputation as Yang Peng is quite famous. He has successively killed Du Fuwei, Yu Wenji and Li Mi, and now he has killed Li Zitong. Any one of these people is not the overlord of the party. If he stamps his feet, the world will shake.

A big shot, and they all died at the hands of Yang Peng. If word got out, wouldn't their followers be ambushing him everywhere, hoping to kill him and avenge their lord?

Therefore, just in case, it would be better for him to wear a mask when traveling in the future and hide his identity.

After placing incense on Lu Miaozi's grave and kowtowing a few times, Yang Peng said goodbye to Shang Xiuxun, took Shan Wanjing and others, and continued on his way north to Luoyang.

When parting, he gave Shang Xiuxun a jade pendant as a token so that if she encounters any danger, she can take it to the Haisha Gang or the Jukun Gang to notify him.

Strictly speaking, these two gangs have surrendered to Yang Peng and can help him deliver messages.

In Shang Xiuxun's reluctant eyes, Yang Peng and his party gradually moved away and disappeared on the bank of the Yangtze River...

The southern suburbs of Luoyang City.

On a small hillside.

A middle-aged man with scars on his face looked at the magnificent temple in the distance and observed it carefully.

This scarred man is Yang Peng wearing the mask of Lu Miaozi, and the temple in front of him is the famous Jing Nian Zen Temple.

Seen from a distance, the entire Zen Yuan is hidden among the trees, with hundreds of temples of various sizes, like a small city.

Among them, there is a temple that is different from others, with a shining yellow light. It is an immortal temple made of gold and copper.

Yang Peng knew very well that He Shibi was hiding in this copper palace.

However, at this time, around the Bronze Hall, there were more than 200 warrior monks who were highly skilled in martial arts and had reached the innate realm, as well as the four great Vajras who protected the temple. They were sitting cross-legged on the ground, tapping the wooden fish in their hands, chanting sutras and meditating.

In such a battle, even Yang Peng, who had already reached the peak level of a grandmaster, did not dare to act rashly. He quietly lurked around, waiting for the opportunity.

Suddenly, three bells rang out from the bell tower, and the monks' chanting stopped abruptly.

The bronze door, which weighed a thousand kilograms and was ten feet high, slowly opened, and a tall and handsome monk walked out of it. This monk was wearing a yellow inner robe and a brown jacket. His tall and slender figure stood out among the crowd.

Among the monks, he stands out like a chicken, very conspicuous.

He is the abbot of this temple, Master Liao Kong.

Because the supernatural power contained in the Heshi Bi can promote the practice of meditation to a certain extent, Liao Kong spent these days in the Bronze Palace, facing the Heshi Bi, practicing closed-mouthed meditation.

However, this has the same peculiarity as Shibi, that is, as time goes by, it will periodically produce a kind of radiation that is harmful to the practice of Buddhism, which will affect the Taoist mind of those who practice Zen, causing extremely harmful effects.

The influence caused the power to be greatly reduced.

For example, at this time, Rikong was affected by adverse radiation, and something went wrong in his Zen practice. He needed to temporarily withdraw from the Copper Hall and find another quiet place to practice and restore his vitality.

All of this was seen by Yang Peng.
