#492 - The Golden Light Mantra
Although Liang Yue's bloodline power in this world was suppressed, preventing him from using his gravity manipulation abilities to further accelerate his flight.
Even relying solely on his Foundation Establishment stage cultivation and realm, his current flying speed was still very fast.
In less than half an hour, Liang Yue had already arrived at the Liaoning Upper Capital, Linhuang Prefecture, located in the North China Plain!
Location-wise, it was roughly the Chifeng area of later generations in Inner Mongolia~
Liang Yue's purpose in coming here was simple: to break into the imperial palace of the Great Liao, spar with the experts of the Liao Kingdom, and then kill a few people along the way…
Not too many, and not to the extent of slaughtering thousands of troops like he did in the Shaolin Five Ancestors and Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber worlds; it hadn't reached that point yet.
Currently, the Water Margin heroes' storyline hadn't even begun, so Liang Yue only needed to appropriately deter the other side.
After making up his mind, Liang Yue, high in the sky, suddenly shifted his spiritual power, and the wood spiritual power, originally misty like clouds and haze, suddenly became solid.
Thickly, like a layer of bright purple diaphragm, it enveloped his entire body.
Outside this film, the purple light danced wildly, setting him off like a god high above!
This was an energy application method that Liang Yue had comprehended from the Golden Bell Shield.
He had obtained a fragment of this divine skill in the New Shaolin Five Ancestors world, and although he had initially given up on practicing it to the end, he later obtained the complete Golden Bell Shield manual in the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber world.
But at that time, he had already successfully advanced to the Innate realm in cultivation, and his main cultivation method had already been determined, so it was naturally impossible to discard it and re-cultivate this Buddhist divine skill.
But if he were to give up on it completely, it would be too much of a pity~
Therefore, he could only use the Taoist Innate Purple Haze Inner Strength to transform the Golden Bell Shield divine skill, turning it into his own.
Later, Liang Yue was fortunate enough to obtain the "Everlasting Spring Skill," a cultivation technique. In addition to the main internal energy cultivation, several basic Taoist secret techniques were attached to the end of this skill.
The "Golden Light Charm" was one of them!
This was a basic Taoist spell that could gather the metallic elements between heaven and earth to form a protective defense.
As the name suggests, the Golden Light Charm should originally appear as a golden circular罩.
Later, after being digested and mastered by Liang Yue, and integrated into his own cultivation method, it was also affected by the spiritual power under his own skill fusion, and thus transformed into the current bright purple!
In addition to being superior in defense, it was also more flexible and versatile to use and control!
Among them, naturally, there was the blessing and operational thinking of the Golden Bell Shield divine skill.
Back to the main topic…
The reason why Liang Yue would preemptively put a cover on himself before entering Shangjing City was naturally for safety…
After seeing the composition of the various forces in this world, as well as the strength of the so-called grandmasters, Liang Yue felt that he had indeed underestimated the heroes of the world.
If the land of the Great Song was already like this, not to mention the Liao Kingdom, which was even more powerful in military strength.
At present, in Shangjing City, the capital of a country, in addition to the experts, there might also be some defense-breaking weapons specifically used to target martial artists and cultivators.
Whether it was armor-breaking in terms of physics or dispelling true energy in terms of energy, it was worth his serious attention.
After the "Golden Light Charm" was completely digested and integrated into himself, Liang Yue's understanding of this spell had already exceeded the original basic Taoist magic method.
Simply put, although the Golden Light Charm was an energy application method, it gathered the metallic elements between heaven and earth, and had already involved the level of transforming from virtuality to reality.
It was not as simple as a pure energy spell or physical defense. To be precise, it should be a combination of both.
It can defend against everything~!
Of course, even without this Golden Light Charm, Liang Yue was confident that he could establish his prestige and remain unscathed without wearing a shield.
But people, sometimes, have to put on a show. They can't just fight and leave. The typhoon and image must be established first~
Moreover, the character must be eye-catching!
…
Glancing at Linhuang Prefecture below, which had begun to gradually turn dark and enter the curfew stage, Liang Yue looked up and, without spending much time, determined the location of the Liao Kingdom's imperial palace.
With a thought, the whole person once again turned into a purple rainbow, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, and quickly landed in an open space in the imperial city.
According to the normal years, the Liao Kingdom should have entered the reign of Yelü Hongji at this time.
During his reign, this Liao Kingdom emperor experienced several disturbances. He successively encountered the Chongyuan Rebellion, Yelü Yixin's usurpation of power and misgovernment, mistakenly killed the empress, placed his crown prince under house arrest, and indulged in extravagance, building Buddhist temples and monasteries extensively, wasting national power, and leading to political decay, causing the entire country to turn from prosperity to decline…
But if you only look at some of his measures in the early part of his reign, he can be regarded as having achieved something. Especially in terms of his attitude towards the Great Song, his existence was actually relatively peaceful.
From this point of view, Yelü Hongji's life experience is somewhat similar to that of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang.
But it's only similar. From the perspective of influence and other aspects, the two of course cannot be equated.
At this time, Yelü Hongji had only been on the throne for a few years, and it was the time when he was working hard to govern, then extensively building Buddhist temples, and hunting and playing everywhere.
He was in the initial stage of wasting national power~
Therefore, Liang Yue certainly couldn't attack them too hard at this stage. That would be provoking hatred for the Song Dynasty and setting up a target for the Liao Kingdom…
He didn't want to reverse the situation of national confrontation in the world alone, like in the previous Shaolin Five Ancestors and Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber worlds.
Therefore, the scale of this revenge had to be controlled.
"Amitabha~! Benefactor, may I ask why you have trespassed into my Liao Kingdom's royal palace?"
Liang Yue had just landed not long ago, probably only three to five seconds, when he heard a Buddhist chant and a questioning voice in his ear.
Faintly, chaotic footsteps began to appear all around.
"Earlier tonight, in the downtown area of Bianliang City, this poor Taoist was assassinated by your Liao cavalrymen. Now I have come here specifically to ask you for an explanation~"
Looking around at the three old monks around him, the corners of Liang Yue's mouth curved slightly.
Liang Yue didn't find anything surprising about them being able to discover his whereabouts.
Nonsense~ He was now like a human-shaped light bulb, surrounded by purple light, and the surrounding thirty to forty meters were illuminated to a translucent state.
Such a big target falling from the sky, it would be a ghost if they couldn't find it…
In short, Liang Yue did it on purpose~
"May I ask, Taoist Priest, how do you want to seek an explanation?"
After hearing his words, the old monk on the opposite side's expression remained unchanged, and after pondering for a moment, he asked him.
"This poor Taoist has heard that the Liao Kingdom has countless capable people. I think there should be a gathering of experts in this imperial palace. Call them all out and let me kill a few people.
When the anger in my heart dissipates, it will be over."
