Chapter 499 Face to Face


Big Red Snake is really a childlike and very immature name.

Because in Yin Xiu's opinion, how could it just be called a "big snake"? Looking at the distribution of its scales and the shape of its head, Yin Xiu vaguely recognized that it was clearly a giant anaconda that was all red.

It was fifty meters away from everyone, but the body standing up from the ground was taller and stronger than any giant tree.

The big snake's head moved slightly, covering the moon, and the surroundings were dark for a while. Only the firelight remained around the queue, reflecting the faces of everyone dripping with cold sweat.

It probably took three thousand years for this giant snake to grow to such a huge size and have spiritual intelligence. Just glancing at everyone at this moment made people feel a terrible pressure like a mountain falling on their shoulders.

At this time, the few dogs brought down by the expedition team were already trembling and barking uneasily. If someone hadn't grabbed their ropes, I'm afraid these frightened dogs wouldn't know where to run. .

In fact, this is true not only for dogs, but also for humans.

Everyone's back was soaked with cold sweat in an instant, and they felt that the gun barrel in their hands was wet, sticky and cold, making them feel like they couldn't hold it.

At this time, Ma Xiaoyu had retreated to the back of the crowd, throwing her cloak aside, revealing her original slim figure and beautiful face.

However, Yin Xiu did not exit according to the original plan and watched the fire from the other side.

Because in his mind, that hoarse, rough voice appeared again.

"Is this the sacrifice you...brought? It's not enough...dedicate Changbai's incense to me..."

"What is Changbai's incense?"

Yin Xiu tried to communicate with the voice that appeared from nowhere for the first time.

"The incense of Changbai..."

It just recited this sentence repeatedly, and the following murmurs were inaudible, and it felt like it had turned into some kind of sleepy babble, full of vagueness and confusion.

"Mr. Krupp! Mr. Krupp!"

Urgent shouts came from the team, and the captains of the expedition team stared at him, trying to get orders from him.

Fight or flee?

Although everyone prefers the latter.

Yin Xiu's face was expressionless. After confirming once again that he could not communicate with the big red snake, and feeling some kind of permeating malice from the big red snake's words, he raised his hand and reached out to the big red snake.

That's a thumbs up.

Then, Yin Xiu’s arm turned upside down...

Click!

Everyone moved into action, and the sound of pulling gun bolts was heard continuously, followed by loudly repeated commands and rapid footsteps.

The expedition team moved in an orderly manner, but the porters behind them were already huddled together in a panic, not knowing where to escape.

Jin Minzhong mingled with the crowd, pushed left and right, got into the bushes, and climbed out far away from the chaotic center.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the uncle he had spoken to before was in the crowd, and he was as at a loss as the others, looking around in a panic.

Jin Minzhong turned around and wanted to call him over.

But as soon as he raised his hand, the words of greeting were stuck in his throat.

Calling him over now means that other people will also see where they are and be attracted to him.

Such movement would be noticed by both the terrifying big snake and the gunmen who were not much better than the big snake.

No matter which one of these two is targeted, there will be no good end.

The only difference is that one is turned into a hornet's nest, and the other is eaten and no bones are left.

Just when he hesitated, countless tongues of fire spurted out from countless gun barrels, and the three steel behemoths with precise structures also roared and opened their mouths.

Smoke and fire suddenly engulfed the entire front line, and everyone heard bursts of explosions, as if they were in the rain clouds of a thunderstorm.

Separated by dozens of meters, almost every scale of the big red snake burst into flames. A rainstorm of projectiles splashed on its body. The sound of the collision of gold and iron could be heard endlessly, as if there were dozens of craftsmen working on the furnace at the same time in a blacksmith shop. The iron block was forged by the fire, and little sparks came out.

Yin Xiu stared at the big red snake that was almost engulfed in the fire, with a normal expression.

However, his expression was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

No wonder the big red snake was almost invulnerable before. With this level of firepower, let alone hundreds of people shooting at the same time, even if there were only dozens of people, one shot per person, most of the monsters would be torn apart by the projectiles.

Gunsmoke was everywhere, blocking sight. Almost everyone shot in that direction without blinking, and their arms were sore.

Finally, when the last projectile popped out of the machine gun and fell to the ground, the smoke produced by the detonation of black powder had completely blocked their sight, leaving a thick barrier between them and the target.

Many people's sleeves and collars were blackened by the smoke, and a few rough particles would be stained by just touching them.

Yin Xiu stood here and watched for a while. When everyone's thoughts were uncertain, his pupils suddenly shrank.

I saw a huge figure rushing towards me in the smoke.

In a blur, the big red snake looked like a dragon soaring among the clouds.

As soon as the red color appeared, he quickly crashed into the crowd. As he moved forward, several blood flowers bloomed in the crowd.

Then, with a gentle sweep of its tail, flakes of blood mist swayed in the air and landed on the shoulders, bodies and faces of the surviving gunmen.

Until then, those who had been holding on to a lucky mentality suddenly realized that the weapons in their hands could not cause any harm to such a monster, let alone using such a fire stick to escape from the snake's mouth.

Realizing this, the companions didn't even have time to scream, or even scream. They were just crushed by the big red snake's body, and the sound of bones and muscles being crushed into mud frightened many people.

The tragic fate that those companions suffered will soon happen again to them!

Realizing this, no one cared about treasures, honor and discipline anymore. Everyone just ran away, hoping to run faster than their companions in order to escape, or to face the fate later.

However, the big red snake didn't seem to have any intention of dealing with them, but these people were indeed blocking the road, so when it moved, those who couldn't dodge were crushed by its body, turning into blood mist and scattered in all directions.

Yin Xiu knew that the big red snake was coming for him. Smelling the strong smell of blood in the air, his eyes gradually became cold.

Finally, when the big red snake was only twenty meters away from him, a puff of smoke rose around Yin Xiu.

The smoke dissipated, "Krupp" disappeared without a trace, and Yin Xiu stood where he was.

Seeing this, the big red snake seemed to moan excitedly and hissed, as if it was actually spitting the letter out of its mouth.

However, Yin Xiu knew that such a giant beast would not be overly excited because of a small person standing here, and he also knew very well that he was not a "white incense", and the big red snake did not regard him as its prey. .

At this moment, the huge snake just wanted to kill him. Yin Xiu turned around and started to run away without looking back. After a few times, she jumped far away.

The big red snake followed closely behind, and as it accelerated, sand and rocks splashed, and the blood mist was hazy. Soon, there were no living creatures on the path where it and Yin Xiu chased, only stains of blood.

Not expecting any injuries to be left on its body, Yin Xiu just focused on avoiding it. Using her speed and footwork to dodge, she would not be hurt by the big red snake for a while.

"Very good, just postpone it for now."

Liu Banxian had changed his attire at this time and put on a black robe with Bagua patterns printed on the back. At the same time, he was holding a branch as big as a bowl, holding it while walking on the ground and drawing.

If anyone looked from the air at this time, it seemed that it was a gossip pattern.

It's just that the Bagua seems to be different from the commonly seen Bagua array, but is upside down, left, and right. Like the Bagua on his back, it is a unique totem of the Liu family in Wollongong.

Ma Xiaoyu was even more exaggerated. She didn't know when she found a platform and built a simple altar.

Put the incense burner, memorial tablet, Bagua mirror, ink ink brush, copper coin sword and some talisman papers on it. A pair of jade hands washed it slowly in the water basin soaked with grapefruit leaves, then picked up the perfume on one side and put it on the body. Spray it once.

"In this way, the fasting and bathing are completed."

The situation was tense and conditions were limited. Ma Xiaoyu was very satisfied with Liu Banxian's ability to prepare several things needed for her rituals in a short period of time.

Ma Xiaoyu rarely used the altar when he was seriously arranging troops.

On the other hand, the Maoshan Taoist priests of Uncle Ming's sect like to arrange formations, use rituals and magic weapons, and use ghosts, soldiers and ghosts to subjugate and eliminate demons.

But Ma Xiaoyu just doesn't need it or doesn't have the opportunity to use it. If she really wants to set up a formation, she will naturally have a set of techniques that are in line with Taoist rituals.

While she was preparing, Liu Banxian had finished drawing the Eight Diagrams, and took out the "Splendid Ruler of Mountains and Rivers" and the "Picture of Crouching Dragon Subduing Demons" from his pocket, holding them one on the left and one on the right, with a serious look on his face.

"Miss Ma, I will assist you in a moment to draw in the majestic earth energy of the Changbai Mountains and kill the evil spirit of the big red snake that cannot be tolerated by righteousness."

Ma Xiaoyu didn't answer, but used his thumb to count again on the tips of his index and middle fingers, confirming again that this was the place where the earth's energy was strong as Liu Banxian said.

So, she said: "I don't know if I can succeed, because in order to mobilize the earth's energy, we must establish communication with the local god and obtain a share of his mana, so that we can drive the majestic earth's energy.
< br>

However, I am afraid that Lord Taibai really fell into the mouth of the big snake and died as the little white fox said.

If he has a trace of spiritual consciousness left, it would be okay if the legacy is here. If not, our action will fail, and there will be..."

"There will be terrible backlash, right?" Liu Banxian was also a little worried.

"That's right."

Ma Xiaoyu said it was serious, but she didn't seem that worried.

"When the time comes, the huge ownerless spiritual energy will attack us in turn. I don't care, because I am in harmony with the world's spiritual energy and magic, and will not be affected by the magic's backlash. But you, Liu Banxian..."

"Don't worry."

Liu Banxian waved his hand, "Although I am not as capable as Miss Ma, I am blessed by my ancestors and have merit, so I may not necessarily encounter any bad luck."

"And," he adjusted his sunglasses, "I believe that we will definitely succeed."

"Why?" Ma Xiaoyu was a little curious.

"There is no specific reason."

Liu Banxian is confident, "Just because I feel that sometimes the more firmly I believe in something, the easier it is for that thing to happen."

"I hope you are a good spirit and not a bad spirit, and not the other way around."

Ma Xiaoyu pushed a strand of hair behind her ears, pulled out the jade pendant buried in her chest, held it in her hand, and whispered a prayer.

Liu Banxian was also busy with his own affairs at this time and did not notice Ma Xiaoyu's nervousness.

Finally, after all the preparations were made, Ma Xiaoyu shook her body, and her long windbreaker and hair fluttered together, looking heroic.

She took out the three-color ruler and ran her fingers over it. The red, yellow, and green lights lit up one by one and came into her eyes.

After feeling the harmonious resonance of mana from the ruler, Ma Xiaoyu poked the ruler on the table with one hand, pointed at the tablet with a piece of talisman paper, and the flame on the candlestick suddenly rose and burned vigorously.

Then, she picked up another talisman on the table.

These talisman papers are not placed in glass tubes, but placed on the table like ordinary talisman papers, arranged neatly.

She held the sword spell in her hand and held a piece of talisman paper between her fingertips. After reciting the spell several times, Ma Xiaoyu's body was filled with dragon and tiger energy, and the rich purple energy almost enveloped her whole body.

After his mana and momentum reached their peak, Ma Xiaoyu threw the talisman into the sky.

After watching the talisman disappear into the sky, Ma Xiaoyu put her hands together, stepped on the Seven Star Gang Steps, and formed the sword formula again.

"The imperial edict is in the ocean, the sun rises in the east, I give you a spiritual talisman to sweep away all the bad luck! Borrow the magic!"

Liu Banxian immediately activated the Splendid Mountains and Rivers Ruler and the "Crouching Dragon Conquering Demons" in his hands to add two different rhythms to Ma Xiaoyu's magic power.

At their feet, the huge Bagua painted by Liu Banxian just now suddenly glowed and then disappeared.

As if nothing had happened, the surroundings fell into silence.

The chase between Big Red Snake and Yin Xiu in the distance seemed to be isolated outside a layer of glass, turning into a mime with only movement and no sound.

The overwhelming sound came from the mountains in the distance, along with the panicking vibrations. It seemed that the Changbai Mountains were undergoing some subtle, yet majestic changes.

In this way, the first step of stimulating the atmosphere of Changbai Mountains has been completed.

However, this ceremony has just begun.

Ma Xiaoyu stood there, still holding the sword secret and praying sincerely.

Her whole body entered a state of clarity on the spiritual platform amid the blessings. Her eyes were shining with stars, but her consciousness was wandering in the sea of ​​​​souls.

In this state of inner vision, her mind was both clear and dark.

Suddenly, she suddenly saw a woman in white clothes with long hair, whose face she couldn't see clearly, coming towards her, opening a warm embrace.

"The incense of Changbai Mountains..." (End of Chapter)
