Chapter 2218 Kuangxu
Shen Biyou was overjoyed after hearing this: "With Brother Liu's help, I will get twice the result with half the effort!"
Huang Risheng also smiled and said: "This Taoist fellow is so good at swordsmanship that even I Even the 'Four Elephants Hidden Killing Formation' couldn't trap him, and Tianxu must have been able to stop him. I can't stand his sword edge."
Liang Yan chuckled: "Both of you are the top masters of the Taoist sect, the leaders among the Yasheng, so why bother teasing me? Let's go to Youmingyuan quickly? Let’s find out.”
“Okay.”
The three of them are free and easy people, they leave as soon as they say it, and set off immediately.
With Shen Biyou as the leader, the monks guarding the pass along the way naturally let them go. The three of them left Lin'an City and flew at low altitude for several hours before entering the area of Youmingyuan.
Everywhere you look, you see a deserted place.
The charred land seemed to have been severely burned by heavenly fire, spreading to the sky, with no grass growing.
There are cracks on the ground, and strands of gray-black air escape from the cracks from time to time. Strong winds roar past, carrying gravel and dust, among which are actually mixed fragments of broken magic weapons and immortal cultivators. The withered bones...
Liang Yan was shocked by the scene here. He recalled that there must have been a tragic battle here. Although the Void Realm of Disaster was finally sealed, the Taoist and Confucian factions must have suffered heavy casualties.
Not long after the three of them entered this area, they saw more than ten ferocious beasts from a distance.
These ferocious beasts do not look like ordinary creatures. Some have bull heads and snake bodies, some have chicken beaks and rabbit heads, and some look like apes, but have three arms growing from their backs... all kinds of strange shapes, as if they are strange. suture body.
“Are these Tianxu?” Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Strictly speaking, these are just the residual evil spirits of Tianxu. They have no independent consciousness. They just imitate the creatures in this world based on instinct, so they look nondescript." Shen Biyou explained from the side.
Huang Risheng added: "Tianxu is divided into top-level Tianxu and ordinary Tianxu. Among them, there are many types of top-level Tianxu. After so many years of exploration by Taoism and Confucianism, there are more than a dozen known types. The more common ones are crazy ones. Xu, Yingxu, Mengxu and Blood deficiency..."
After listening to Huang Risheng's supplementary explanation, Liang Yan also had a general understanding of Tianxu.
He asked again: "What is the strength of the top Tianxu?"
"It's hard to say, but at least they all have the strength above the Tribulation Realm. It would be okay if you only meet one or two. , it would be troublesome to deal with them in groups."
When Huang Risheng said this, he suddenly asked Shen Biyou: "Speaking of which kind of heavenly void caused the strange movement you discovered this time. ”
"Kangxu." Shen Biyou replied.
After hearing this, Huang Risheng nodded slightly and explained to Liang Yan: "Among the dozen or so known species, this Kuangxu is the only one that has a physical entity. They look like wild apes and are extremely powerful. During the fight, the evil spirit of madness will also be emitted. If unfortunately this evil spirit invades the body, it is likely to fall into madness and kill indiscriminately without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Biyou continued. : "Even if If you use great magic power to suppress the evil spirit, it will still lurk in the body, and you may still go crazy in the future. Therefore, Brother Liu must be careful not to let this mad evil spirit invade the body accidentally and leave hidden dangers for himself. "
After hearing this, Liang Yan had a solemn look on his face, nodded and said: "Thank you two fellow Taoists for reminding me, I will act with caution next time."
While speaking, he was also thinking secretly in his heart. .
"It seems... the evil spirit in Mengli's body is this crazy evil spirit. No wonder even Su Xiaodie can't suppress it. Fortunately, my sword spirit body is pure and flawless and is not affected by the evil spirit. I can export it out of the body, otherwise I would also It can't solve Su Xiaodie's trouble."
He and Lu Xuanji are of the same mind, thinking, seeing and hearing.
That’s why I have such emotion.
The three of them fled all the way and soon went deep into the Youming Abyss.
Although they saw many Tianxu along the way, Shen Biyou and Huang Risheng did not take action because these Tianxu were not very strong and were used for training by Dao League disciples.
After flying like this for three days and three nights, we finally arrived at the outskirts of a dark forest.
This forest covers an extremely large area, at least tens of thousands of miles in radius. It is so dark inside that it cannot be detected by spiritual consciousness.
Beyond the forest is the Dao Alliance's magic circle barrier. Thousands of Taoist disciples preside over the formation here, including three of the Tribulation Patriarchs.
Seeing Shen Biyou's arrival, the three people immediately came up to him and saluted him.
“I’ve met Taoist Master!”
"No need to be polite."
Shen Biyou waved his sleeves and asked: "How is the situation inside?"
"The situation is not good..."
One of the three An old man replied: "While you are away, Inside, there was another riot in Tianxu, which almost broke our 'Bagua Golden Lock Formation'. If riots like this happen a few more times, I'm afraid we will have to retreat to Lin'an City."
"Got it."
Shen Biyou nodded and said to the two people beside him: "I was ordered to garrison Lin'an City. I have never encountered such a situation in the past hundred years. These Tianxu people came out of nowhere and were extremely numerous and powerful. If we can't Now that the hidden danger has been resolved, Shen really doesn't dare to leave Lin'an City."
"Since I followed Brother Shen, there is no reason to retreat. Let's go in," Liang Yan said with a smile.
"Okay."
Shen Biyou smiled slightly and said to the old man: "Quickly open the magic circle barrier. I want to go in with two fellow Taoists to find out."
After hearing this, the old man hesitated and said: "I don't know what the risks are here... Why don't we all go in together?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Risheng smiled and said: "You guys are not strong enough. Going in will only be a drag. Just host the magic circle outside to support us. Okay, stop talking nonsense and open the barrier quickly."< br>
"This... okay."
A few people had no choice but to open the Bagua Golden Lock Formation for them.
Liang Yan, Shen Biyou, and Huang Risheng turned into escaping light at the same time and flew into the dark forest.
I saw boundless darkness enveloping me, and my consciousness could not spread beyond ten miles. I could only vaguely see shadows in the darkness, as if something was moving.
Suddenly, Liang Yan felt that his escape from light was stagnant and he actually fell from mid-air.
He was startled, and hurriedly turned to look at the other two people, and found that they had also fallen from mid-air like him.
"Why is this?" Liang Yan asked with a frown.
"There is a strange power to suppress the world's virtual world, and it is impossible to use the escape light. I didn't expect that this forest also has this kind of power!" Huang Risheng said with a surprised expression.
After hearing this, Liang Yan immediately recalled that Liu Rushi had also mentioned this matter when Lu Xuanji was participating in the recruitment assessment.
In order to deal with the problem of being unable to fly in the world-disaster realm, Rumeng also specially refined a magic weapon called "Nine Sky Wings", which can allow Rumeng monks to fly freely.
The second level of the recruitment assessment is to test the match between the monk's soul power and the "Nine Sky Wings".
While Liang Yan was thinking secretly in his heart, Huang Risheng had already taken out two pills from the storage ring and handed them to Shen Biyou and him respectively.
“Fortunately, the old Taoist brought the ‘Liuyun Pill’ with him!” Huang Risheng smiled slightly, fearing that Liang Yan wouldn’t understand, and explained: “This Liuyun Pill is specially used by our Taoist Alliance to deal with the disasters in the world. Just take one of the elixirs refined in this realm, and you can fly freely in the world-disaster realm for two hours.”
"Oh? There is also this kind of elixir!"
Liang Yan played with the white elixir in his hand, and saw that there were cloud patterns on it, and it actually gave off a faint mist...
Morning I heard that the Ru League is good at refining weapons, while the Dao League is good at refining elixirs. It seems that both factions are well prepared for discussing Taoism in the virtual realm.
"The elixir is precious. Take it when necessary. Let's walk in and explore first. If we are attacked by Tianxu, it will not be too late to take the elixir again."
"Yes."< br>
Liang Yan nodded, put the elixir away, and walked side by side into the depths of the forest with Shen Biyou and Huang Risheng.
As they went deeper, the darkness around them became thicker and thicker, and their spiritual consciousness gradually could only see about five miles away. Invisible evil spirits surrounded them, as if they might explode at any time.
"Something's wrong..." Liang Yan suddenly stopped, with a solemn look on his face.
Shen Biyou also reacted and nodded seriously.
"Yes! This journey is too quiet. I walked here alone before, but I encountered two waves of attacks in succession, but now I can't even see a shadow of Kuangxu."
"As far as the old Taoist knows, Kuangxu is not very intelligent. He will take the initiative to attack anyone he encounters. It is impossible for him to avoid us."
Huang Risheng said, taking off the Bagua compass from his waist, Raise your hand and punch in a spell.
I saw little stars appearing on the compass, and the sixty-four hexagrams kept changing, and finally settled on one of them.
Huang Risheng glanced at it, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his expression changed drastically: "Huh? Is there anything missing in the question, looking for a dragon and encountering death, the hexagram of great evil?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Shen Biyou sneered: "Old man, stop pretending. Even if there is a siege by Tianxu, what do we have to fear if the three of us join forces? Quickly calculate the source of the abnormal movement, and don't tease my friend."
"Uh..."
Huang Risheng's face twitched, the shock just now disappeared, and he showed an embarrassed smile instead.
“Alas, this kid has been teased by me a lot, and now he can tell at a glance that he is boring, boring!”
Huang Risheng sighed, and casually entered a few more lines into the compass. Dharma tips.
The compass turned very fast, and it didn't take long to lock in a direction.
"Southwest, about eight hundred miles."
"Let's go."
The three of them set out on the road again, and soon they arrived at the place Huang Risheng had calculated.
Looking from afar, I saw an open space in the woods, with an altar in the center. Above the altar, wisps of gray mist emerged from the void, exuding a disgusting stench!
"What is this?" Huang Risheng's eyes showed surprise.
"Sure enough, there is something fishy! I said it's impossible for so many Tianxu to suddenly appear. It seems that someone is causing trouble in secret!" Shen Biyou said in a deep voice.
“You mean...these Tianxu all appeared through this altar?” Huang Risheng turned around with an expression of disbelief.
"That's the truth!" Shen Biyou looked serious.
"But..." Huang Risheng pondered for a moment and said slowly: "We, the Taoist and Confucian factions, have worked hard to build a defense line at the border of Youmingyuan, isn't it just to protect Dongyun Lingzhou from Tianxu? Is it pollution? Why is it still there? People take the initiative to summon Tianxu? Besides, the World Disaster Realm has been sealed, who has such a method?” Rumeng!" Shen Biyou narrowed his eyes.
Huang Risheng was shocked after hearing this: "You suspect..."
The next words were not spoken, but everyone understood what he meant.
Liang Yan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said: "You two, it's too early to say this now, but we seem to be in trouble, and we need to solve the current predicament first. "
As soon as he finished speaking, as if to verify his words, the surrounding Tianxu evil spirit suddenly rolled, and then, twisted monsters came out of the darkness one by one.
These monsters are burly, ape-like, like moving hills, surrounded by wisps of black mist, with runes faintly flashing in the mist, exuding an evil aura!
"Is this what you call Kuangxu?" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Yes, this is the most common type of Tianxu. Although it is not as weird as other Tianxu, its defense is amazing and its power is endless." Huang Risheng introduced from the side.
"There are quite a few..."
Liang Yan looked around carefully and after a rough count, he found that there were hundreds of Kuangxu!
Every Kuangxu has at least the strength of the Transformation Tribulation Realm, which means they are surrounded by hundreds of Transformation Tribulation Realm monks!
"What's the use of having a large number?"
Shen Biyou said calmly: "These Kuangxu attack only by instinct. No matter how large the number is, they will only rush in swarm. There is no possibility of any cooperation. The three of us Just stay in one direction and kill them one by one."
"Yes, Brother Biyou is right." Huang Risheng stroked his long beard and nodded slightly.
"Wait... something seems wrong!" Just when Shen Biyou was about to take action, Liang Yan suddenly spoke.
"What did you see?" Huang Risheng and Shen Biyou asked at the same time.
Liang Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and after a moment he said in a deep voice: "Don't you two realize that these crazy positions are not chaotic, but seem to follow a certain pattern?"
"Huh?"
< br>After his reminder, the two of them looked at the approaching Kuangxu again, and their expressions changed slightly after a moment.
"There is indeed something wrong, this position..." Huang Risheng hesitated to speak.
“You read that right, this is the ‘Nine Palaces’ of Confucianism!” Liang Yan said solemnly.
"How is it possible?"
Huang Risheng looked surprised: "Kangxu has low intelligence, how can he understand the Nine Palaces of Confucianism?"
Liang Yan said lightly: "I don't know this, but this Besides us, there must be others in the woods Others! And this person can control Tianxu. He deliberately prevented Tianxu from attacking us just now, just to lure us into the magic circle he arranged!"
"Who can control Tianxu... This ability?" Huang Risheng murmured.
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
I saw the roaring wind, lightning and thunder in the dark woods! The Nine Palaces pattern appeared on the ground, and a chilling atmosphere enveloped everyone...
