Chapter 596 Chasing the escaping weapon spirit, parting ways
"Ahem, this is the investment that the old man made in me when I was a guest in the cave of Lord Kurong, a monk in the Nascent Soul Stage of the Demon Dao."
Young Master Jiuyou curled up his lips when he talked about this, obviously getting a lot of benefits.
"Investment?"
Lin Shan looked at his good brother in surprise. As a young master of the dead sect, receiving investment from a big boss in the Nascent Soul stage was equivalent to having a backer. No wonder he dared to go out and walk around in the Jin Kingdom.
"It's so gratifying that my eldest brother can win the favor of the Demon Lord!"
"Eh~ It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning."
Although Young Master Jiuyou is humble, he can't hide the smile in his eyes.
Because he has been depressed for too long!
Finally, I had a backer and ended my life of hiding in Tibet.
I used to live in the Yuan Mo Sect of the Jin State, and I didn't dare to take a single step out for fear of being liquidated by my enemies from the Chu State. There were also many people in the Jin State who were ready to take action.
Who doesn’t know that he carries a small part of Jiuyoumen’s inheritance with him?
The demonic monks all want to kill him to expend equipment and resources. If he dares to run around, he is seeking death!
Within Yuan Mo Sect, there are also many greedy people who have long been dissatisfied with him and want to swallow up his inheritance.
It's just that the senior brother of the Yuan Mo Sect, Zicheng Qian, is his close friend and has been helping him before and after, so that he can survive.
Later, he broke into the forbidden area of the cliff and came back. After a lot of hard work and courage, he was appreciated by Lord Kurong, and the boss decided to protect him. Only then did he have the confidence to walk in the world of cultivation.
As for Demon Lord’s investment, it was a timely help for him.
Because he has been sitting on nothing for so many years, and his inheritance is not too large to be used up, he will definitely need new supplies.
Demon Lord Kurong was also very generous. Knowing that he wanted to rebuild the Nine Nether Gate, he was very considerate and asked for people, money, and all the flying magic weapons.
This large-scale painting boat has exquisite workmanship and exquisite carvings. The eaves on both sides are covered with lanterns, which is full of poetic and painting style.
Most people in the Jin Kingdom’s cultivation world know that this is the ‘Spring Tower’ that was once the vehicle of Lord Kurong.
The meaning is taken from "A small building listens to the spring rain all night".
Think about it, standing on this painted boat, soaring in the sky with spring thunder and heavy rain, overlooking all living things, what kind of ambition and courage does it have?
When Young Master Jiuyou gets on this boat, people outside will understand that this is the protective umbrella given by Lord Kurong.
Before touching him, you must carefully consider whether you can bear the consequences!
You say that when the demon king is angry, he will lay down millions of corpses and bleed into the rafts!
The wealthy people don't want to cause trouble, and the casual cultivators are not a big threat to Young Master Jiuyou, so he can handle it himself.
The only fly in the ointment is that this painted boat is for Lord Kurong to sit on, which is called poetic and picturesque!
If you want to sit for someone else, then show off a bit of forcefully acting like a girl.
On the contrary, Young Master Jiuyou is very fond of Linshan's black beetle flying boat, which is very in line with the aesthetics of people in the devil's path.
In terms of speed, the two are equally matched.
Whether it is the flying magic weapon painting boat or the beetle flying boat, they all have the speed to turn into a rainbow comparable to that of a monk in the golden elixir stage!
While galloping side by side.
The white clouds in the sky are receding, and the mountains and rivers on the ground are disappearing quickly.
Young Master Jiuyou's boat leaves behind strips of colorful exhaust fumes. It's cool, but the key is that it's very arrogant!
Linshan's Beetle Aircraft is relatively low-key, has no exhaust, and focuses on clean energy.
On the front deck of the boat.
The Guardian Bird looked sideways and muttered to Young Master Jiuyou.
"We now have three golden elixir stage monks. Do you want to try to kill the leader of Xun Gu while we're at it?"
Young Master Jiuyou did not agree.
Because he remembered that his second brother had the Wind Escape Talisman, and if he was not absolutely sure, he would definitely not be able to keep him.
Since it can't be killed, there's no point in being disgusted.
At this stage, he is following along, using his Taoist An Chun to lead the way, and first capture the Zichen Star Ring Artifact Spirit.
Moth Ridge.
night.
The purple-haired weapon spirit is meditating on the top of the mountain, and streams of blue stars are falling from the distant void, being collected and collected by it.
Star power is its foundation. If there is no star power and it cannot cultivate as a weapon spirit, it will not even have the strength to escape!
And in order to enter Zhenjun Yuxing's cave in advance before it opens, he also needs a lot of star power.
"It's a pity that Zhou Tianxingtian and Young Master Jiuyou joined forces and made me fall short."
At this time, it still couldn't believe that these two people could bear their true intentions in the Arctic. There must be some unknown inside story.
But just when he was thinking about how to take revenge and go back, especially how to seize the celestial body.
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!
Deep in the distant mountains, colorful tailbands hang in the night.
Young Master Jiuyou sat upright on the deck of the boat and rushed towards this side.
"You alone dare to catch up?"
The purple-haired weapon spirit was overjoyed. He didn't expect the other party to be so supportive, and he really thought he was a soft persimmon.
Then let you know how powerful I am!
The mountains surrounding Moth Ridge suddenly swayed, rising up from the ground and rising into the sky, getting higher and higher, blocking the distance.
Young Master Jiuyou ignored it and just attacked the purple-haired weapon spirit to capture it on the spot.
“Wow tap tap~”
Several more large formations lit up, trapping him in them, making him perfect both offensively and defensively.
The young master of Jiuyou immediately fell into a quagmire and was forced to switch from attack to defense. He was in a hurry.
The next moment,
Suddenly there was wind blowing from behind, and the purple-haired weapon spirit felt something was wrong. Although it was a spiritual body that could not feel the wind on the physical level, it still couldn't use the formation to monitor its surroundings?
"Who!"
Lin Shan walked around from behind, holding the soul-locking pot in his hand, and pointed it at it, wanting to take it away to accompany Master Zhi Lian.
The purple-haired weapon spirit's body was unstable, and then he realized that the two brothers were chasing after him. Just now, one was luring the enemy in front, and the other was sneaking around behind!
As it fled, two more large formations erupted under its feet.
I don’t know how many formations it has buried!
Lin Shan was blocked, and then he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But it's not over yet, when it thinks it's over.
A shadow appeared next to him, suddenly delivering a fatal blow!
“Bang~”
A gourd of black and red blood was poured on it, burning it until it screamed. Countless white smoke was rising upwards, as if a normal person had been doused with concentrated sulfuric acid.
The feeling was sour and refreshing for a moment, but then it was uncomfortable and despairing.
"Who are you?"
"Nine Nether Gates, protected by ducks."
The visitor simply revealed his home, and he was arrested!
The bird protector was obviously stronger than the others, forcing it into dangerous situations and almost being caught several times.
Logically speaking, it alone can't stand up to this group of people.
Fortunately, with the help of the formation, there was still going back and forth for a while!
But it is a weapon spirit after all, and the star power wasted every time it fights makes it feel extremely painful.
Waiting for a suitable opportunity, the purple-haired weapon spirit twisted its body and disappeared into the mountain.
"Eh?"
Lin Shan just broke free from the entanglement of the formation and reached out to catch something.
The bird protector couldn't stop him, and withdrew his hand with a gloomy expression.
Without human control, the surrounding formations all exploded into stardust and flew into the air.
Young Master Jiuyou walked over, looked around and nodded.
"This old guy is quite capable. He deserves to be a master of formations. He actually deployed so many formations around him in one go. The overall strength is probably comparable to an ordinary mountain-protecting formation!"
The mountain-protecting formation is more powerful than ordinary formations because of its extensive involvement and complex structure. In addition, it is in line with the earth's veins and has a steady supply of spiritual energy. The number of formations arranged by the purple-haired weapon spirit is large enough, and they can be combined for a short period of time. The disadvantage is that they cannot last long.
One is that there are not enough nearby spiritual veins, and the other is that its star power is limited.
The only option is to flee.
Patriarch Hongdong and Taoist An Chun who were watching the battle also gathered over, and they were also filled with sighs.
"How rare are the formation masters, not to mention the rich experience of this old guy. He once followed True Monarch Yuxing in the north and south, and was displaced. The formation diagrams in his hand can probably fill a basket."
"Fortunately, it is not a true formation master, because without the help of Lingbao and our Star Swallowing Sect looking for materials for it, it would be impossible to persevere on its own."
"The level of materials can kill him."
"Star Power can also block it at this level!"
A true master of formations, not to mention surrounding and killing Nascent Soul Stage monks, would definitely have no problem dealing with Golden Core Stage monks.
But the purple-haired weapon spirit is alone and has no help from outsiders. Where can he find so many materials?
In the past, with the help of the Star Swallowing Sect, people would frantically search for whatever you wanted. Now, the Star Swallowing Sect was so desperate that it no longer had anything to rely on.
Also, when a general formation master goes out, he will bring a bunch of formation apprentices to help.
For example, the Black Skeleton Demon Lord has hordes of bones and bones to dig holes and bury soil for him to lay down his formation base.
Another example is Master Zhankong, who takes his disciples with him when he goes out to help him temporarily set up and operate the formation.
Even Qian Bu was not immune to this. If he hadn't been in such a hurry at Jin Yao Peak, he wouldn't have lost his team of formation apprentices.
The purple-haired weapon spirit now needs materials but no materials, and no one needs people. It is impossible to play the role of a formation master.
"Fellow Taoist An Chun, it seems I can only continue to trouble you."
Taoist An Chun suddenly trembled and turned around to find Lin Shan looking at him.
Lin Shan knew that if this situation continued, Taoist An Chun would be squeezed dry, but now that he was in urgent need of power, he could not control so much.
Taoist An Chun is really helpless. At this time, he still asks me to tell fortunes!
I have been wasted by you for decades, and I will soon be laid to rest. It’s not over yet!
"Sir, my longevity is really not long enough. I only have a few more years to live. Otherwise."
"How about you count today next year as the anniversary of your death?"
"Don't, don't, don't let me count the anniversary of my death again."
Taoist An Chun had no choice but to continue calculating and found his direction again.
Lin Shan and Young Master Jiuyou looked for direction and fought into the distance again.
Several chases followed.
Taoist An Chun positioned himself, and Lin Shan and Young Master Jiuyou followed up together, beating the purple-haired weapon spirit to the point where it ran away in a state of embarrassment.
Every time I wanted to make some repairs, those two people would come to my door.
After doing this three or four times in a row.
The purple-haired weapon spirit finally couldn't stand it anymore and ran wildly in a certain direction.
"Shua~"
"Keep running, I'll see where you can run."
Young Master Jiuyou suddenly stopped. This time, before he could reach him, the purple-haired weapon spirit disappeared.
But this time they didn't see each other, and suddenly there was a barrier.
Taoist An Chun tried to tell fortunes again, but he couldn't do it anymore.
"It seems that he should have gone to Yuxing Cave Mansion, isolated from my exploration in a special area. Going there will probably consume a lot of star power. This is what you said."
He wanted to throw the blame to Patriarch Hongdong.
The latter had no choice but to admit that this place was indeed extraordinary and that it was close to the location of Zhenjun Yuxing's cave.
"The star power on the Zichen Star Ring Artifact Spirit should be barely able to enter. After entering, if it wants to restore its star power, it must either find a way to find its own body, or find a star power pool."
The guy started gushing.
I don’t know if what I said is true or not. It sounds pretty reliable, but most of it is just speculation.
"Then shall we?"
Lin Shan turned his head and looked at his good brother, Young Master Jiuyou.
Young Master Jiuyou looked confused.
"Look what I'm doing, I don't have that much star power, I can't get in at all."
"Is this really the case? How do I remember?"
Which pot in Linshan is not open and which one is not picked up? There is a hidden meaning.
Young Master Jiuyou didn't buy it at all. If he couldn't lead his men in together, without the protection of the Bird Guardian and the guidance of the Hongdong Ancestor, and just went in by himself, he would still be afraid of Qi Lingyin himself!
Lin Shan didn't say anything when he saw this. He didn't have any star power anyway, so he couldn't get through it at all.
"Brother, what are your next plans?"
"I don't have any plans. Don't I want to hear my second brother's opinion?"
“I don’t have any suggestions, I just rely on my elder brother’s orders.”
"Well, I think we brothers should separate temporarily."
"Separate? Why?"
Lin Shan felt that something was not right with Young Master Jiuyou today. It seemed that he had another place to go, so he was going to rush there in a hurry.
Young Master Jiuyou apologized awkwardly.
"Brother, don't get me wrong. I just have some personal matters at hand. I will come back to you after I finish my work."
Lin Shanchang glanced at him a few times but did not force him.
If someone doesn't want to leave, he can't force him to follow him.
"In that case, take care, brother, and we'll see you another day."
Lin Shan turned around and left, and Young Master Jiuyou breathed a sigh of relief.
The bird guardian next to him didn't look very good. His hands wavered several times. He wanted to kill Lin Shan, but he forced himself to hold back.
"Young Master, this boy's cultivation is progressing very fast. If we don't get rid of him as soon as possible, he will definitely become a tiger in the future!"
"I know it too, but if you don't have a chance to win, it's best not to mess around."
The group of people watched Lin Shan go away.
Unexpectedly, this guy suddenly turned around again, almost startling Young Master Jiuyou!
"Brother, when you take my younger brother away, are you planning to use your star power to enter the cave in advance, compete with the Zichen Star Ring Weapon Spirit, and leave me alone?"
Young Master Jiuyou was pounding in his heart!
"No, no, how could my brother go and eat alone? Don't worry, second brother!"
Lin Shan only took three steps and turned back, reluctantly leaving Young Master Jiuyou.
Wait until he really leaves.
Young Master Jiuyou put away his fake smile and became calm and peaceful.
"Young Master, where should we go next?"
Ancestor Hongdong just asked a question and immediately regretted it.
"You talk too much. Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask in the future."
Guardian Ya didn't have this worry. He was also curious about what the young master wanted to do.
"Let's change places first and prepare to enter the Yuxing Secret Crypt. Without further ado, contact the Yin Protector to join me!"
