Chapter 92 Blood Refining
“It’s better to go to the Huang family first. After all, their family has produced one hundred thousand spirit stones, but we can’t just go there directly, lest we alert the enemy and cause unnecessary trouble.”
Guan Linxiang said this thoughtfully.
"Well, let's go hide near Huang's house first and see if there is any chance to break into the messenger flying talisman to get in. We should cooperate inside and outside to bring us in silently."
Finalize the strategy, a group of five He hid near the Huang family, and when a batch of messenger flying talismans flew into the Huang family, Lu Cheng mixed a messenger flying talisman in to inform the Huang family monks that the Huoyun Mansion monks had arrived.
That night, a group of five people successfully entered Huang's house through the closed defensive formation path as agreed.
"I am Huang Qingyan, and I have met five senior cultivators."
Mrs. Huang is thin and looks like a trembling old woman, but she is holding a A silver dragon-headed walking stick with extraordinary spirituality.
Although she said that she had met five monks, Mrs. Huang's eyes showed a bit of hesitation after she stood up, especially the men and women following her who looked wary.
After all, I have heard for a long time that the monks of the Sect of the Huoyun Mansion are profound in Taoism, but among the four sisters Guan, Xia, and the Xu family, only Guan Linxiang and Xu Hanxiang have completed the foundation building, and their magic power is far weaker than those who have already established the foundation. Among Mrs. Huang on the fifth floor, only Lu Cheng looked decent, but she was alone.
"We have accepted the commission from the Qianxiu Dharma Assembly and come here to investigate the evil cultivator's robbery. Please cooperate with the investigation."
Lu Cheng was not interested in scheming with these people, so he took out the letter of commission, At the same time, a majestic and powerful sword intent spread out from his body. This is a stunt that is more effective than any other proof: the sword intent becomes powerful.
Which sword cultivator who can cultivate sword intent in the foundation-building realm would come to this remote place to deceive a small cultivating immortal family?
"It's because I've been neglectful. The five senior cultivators have traveled a long distance for my Huang family. You haven't had a good rest yet, have you?"
Under the fierce sword intent, Old Man Huang The person's expression and attitude have changed drastically. Although she couldn't be said to be rude before, now she can be said to be arrogant at first and respectful at the same time.
"No need, we..."
When Lu Cheng said this, he thought of something and glanced sideways at the junior brothers and sisters behind him who looked slightly tired. He turned around and said: "Since we have arrived, let's not rush for a while. Let's arrange a rest for these junior brothers and sisters of mine."
The purpose of this trip is not for spiritual stones or for self-cultivation, but for In order to train these junior brothers and sisters, it is a kind of experience to make them tired and go into battle, and it is also a kind of experience to make them energetic and use their full strength.
"The five superior cultivators will invite you soon."
Old Mrs. Huang personally greeted her. Although Lu Cheng did not alert more members of the Huang family under Lu Cheng's signal, the four rooms The clean wing was quickly cleaned, and the Xu sisters lived together.
Seeing the five high cultivators from Huoyun Mansion staying, Mrs. Huang's eyes flickered. She gently waved her hand to summon a capable family member beside her and whispered in her ear.
That night, Lu Cheng was meditating on the bed and practicing Taoism.
After cultivating to his level, he has all five qi in his body. He sleeps for one or two hours every day, and the effect is much better than that of ordinary people who sleep all night. Others have nearly twice as many lives.
At this time, there was a sound of wind outside the wing, accompanied by very light footsteps, and then, a light sound came from outside the door:
"Xian Chang Wan'an, the little girl was sent by my grandmother. Serving the Immortal." An elegant and soft voice sounded outside the door.
"No need, go down and rest."
This is not his own cave. Lu Cheng is not practicing any martial arts but honing his magic power, so he can speak at any time.
An hour later, Lu Cheng’s meritorious deeds were completed.
There was still a slight sound outside the door. Lu Cheng frowned slightly and stepped forward to open the door. Sure enough, he saw a girl in a white dress and gauze squatting at the door sobbing.
It’s not fake crying, my eyes are swollen from crying. Even if I’m acting, I still put in all my effort.
"Sure enough, it's the same thing again."
When Lucheng was running Chixin Temple, there were monk families who offered spiritual stones, magic weapons, techniques, and even beautiful Kunxiu to seek protection.
Now with another identity, the true inheritance of the Shangzong seems to be more worthy of these small families’ money.
“I don’t know what your family has promised you, but I’m not interested in it tonight. You can stay in this room all night. As for how much benefit you can get, it depends on your own ability. "
The charming and charming woman in white was stunned when she heard this. Then she bowed down and said sadly: "Thank you for your understanding."
So, Lu Cheng and the woman meditated separately in the room all night.
In this way, she can be considered as contributing to the family and will receive some benefits.
The next day, the five people who had spent the night reunited and were all satisfied.
Mrs. Huang personally took them to the location of the incident, where Huang Huiqian was robbed.
"More than a month has passed since this incident. Although the scene has been preserved, it is probably difficult to find out anything. Fortunately, there were already traces of evil cultivators in Luoxia City at that time, and the Huang family's defensive formation was half-activated at that time. In this state, there is a shadow stone that illuminates the figure of the thief.”
Arriving at the back garden, it was already a mess with broken mountains and dead trees.
Mrs. Huang told the story of the fight between the two sides. Guan Linxiang, Xia Xixiao, Xu Hanxiang, and Xu Xinyu each stepped forward to perform a test, but because time had passed, they had already It is difficult to cast a tracking spell.
"Everyone, I just want to save Hui Qian. She is the most outstanding child of my generation in the Huang family. If one hundred thousand spiritual stones are not enough, I can sell my house and land to add more."< br>
Mrs. Huang, who had always behaved quite coldly and realistically, showed some love and sympathy as an elder at this moment.
The feeling of licking a calf is still touching.
Guan, Xia, and the Xu sisters came forward to no avail. Finally, Lu Cheng came forward. He closed his eyes for a moment, then waved his sleeve and a small golden insect flew out from his sleeve.
The little golden insect first flew around Mrs. Huang a few times, and then began to fly high in the southwest direction.
"That one is? Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu!"
"And it has been cultivated to the level of foundation building. Isn't this kind of vicious insect extinct, how can it be found in Senior Brother Lu?"< br>
“Senior Brother Lu went to Southern Xinjiang under the orders of his master and spent twenty years turning a barren land in Southern Xinjiang into a paradise for humanity. What happened to getting a few good Gu insects by chance? This is not normal. ?”
Guan Linxiang and Xia Xixiao were both surprised when they saw the third-level Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu, but Xu Xinyu admired her Senior Brother Lu in her heart and took the initiative to find it for him. Guan Xia thought the same thing, Senior Brother Lu was twenty years old in Southern Xinjiang Yes, it is normal to have some opportunities.
"But, I haven't heard that the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu is good at finding traces? Is this a hybrid of Senior Brother Lu?" Guan Linxiang was confused.
Actually not, the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu in Lucheng is still the orthodox type with iron mouth and steel teeth, capable of chewing up flying swords and swallowing magic weapons alive, but this second generation of Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu is different from He is naturally close to him, and Lu Cheng can command these Gu insects to do things that ordinary Gu cultivators cannot do.
But even so, after searching hundreds of miles away, when everyone came to a barren mountain, the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu was flying everywhere and had lost its trace.
Seeing this, Lu Cheng shook his head and waved his sleeves to take back the golden silkworm Gu.
"No, that evil cultivator was very cautious. He changed directions several times to eliminate the smell. Even the Golden Silkworm Gu couldn't track it when he found it."
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but be disappointed.
Back at Huang’s house, Lu Cheng and others looked at the Shadow Stone.
The Shadow Stone can reflect and store images, but it only requires mana. When the Huang family's defense formation is turned on, it can reflect most areas.
Through the Shadow Stone, Lu Cheng and his party saw the encounter and fight between Mrs. Huang and the evil cultivator in the Huang family garden a month ago.
But apart from the fact that the cultivation power of both sides is not weak, and that the evil cultivator is faintly superior, not much else can be seen.
"Since we can't find clues here, let's go to the Chen family to look for them. The person who took away the mortals and the evil cultivator who took away Huang Huiqian may be the same person. Combining the clues from both sides may be able to solve the matter." Seeing that everyone looked a little down, Lu Cheng encouraged them.
Next, Lu Cheng restarted Huanyunqi and took the four children to escape towards the Chen family.
Whether it was this time or the last time they followed the clues and left the Huang family, everyone had used hiding methods. Unless the evil cultivator paid all his attention to the Huang family, there was a high chance that Lu would be missed. The appearance of Cheng and others.
Arriving at the Chen family, Chen Yundong, the head of the Chen family, greeted Lu Cheng and his party very warmly.
There was also a banquet to entertain them, but the Huoyun Mansion and his party had no such leisure at this time and went straight to the theme of the commissioned task.
“This incident happened about half a year ago. There are Chenjia Town, Huangjia Town, Luoxia City and some smaller villages and towns in the local area. Since half a year ago, my family has received a lot of help. Recently, someone has disappeared mysteriously. At first, we only thought it was some low-level monsters causing trouble. The Immortal Cultivator family has the responsibility to ensure the safety of the local area, so we sent the children of the clan to go there. Exploration, but to no avail, people continue to disappear, and now even I, the monk of the Chen family, have begun to panic. "
The head of the Chen family spoke very skillfully, but Lu Cheng gradually understood what was going on. After that, the head of the Chen family contracted the family, first ensuring that his family did not suffer any major losses in this incident, and then reported it to the Huoyun Mansion.
Lucheng didn't have anything to say about this. He gave people money to eliminate disasters, but he still had to admire this person's keen sense of smell.
“Let’s go to Chenjia Town and have a look.”
Knowing in his heart that nothing could be asked here, Lu Cheng waved his sleeves, and billowing white clouds surged out, lifting the group up and escaping from Chen's house.
"It's really ugly. The Immortal Cultivation Family has the duty to protect one side. Then Chen Yundong is as fearful of fighting as a tiger. If it weren't for the protection of my Huoyun Mansion, would his family deserve to own this Zixia Lingshan?"
Xu Hanxiang was a little dissatisfied and scolded him in a low voice on the way out.
“Junior Brother Guan, what do you think?”
Lu Cheng knew in his heart that being cautious and making accurate judgments was the way to survive for a small family in Tongxuan Realm, so he ignored Junior Sister Xu’s words. , but asked Guan Linxiang.
"Somehow, I feel that although the Huang family and the Chen family are both robbing others, there seems to be some difference in the taste." Guan Linxiang frowned slightly and replied after thinking.
"..."
At this moment, Lu Cheng, who was flying away with Bai Yun, saw some pedestrians walking on the mountain road below.
Lucheng flew down directly.
“Fairy?” “Monster!”
Although he was driving Baiyun, because people were often missing here during this period, there were still some mortals screaming and throwing away their belongings in an attempt to escape.
Being pinned down by Xu Hanxiang and Xu Xinyu, he was temporarily unable to move.
Those mortals who thought they were gods threw away their goods and knelt down to kowtow, and were swept up by Lu Cheng with his sleeves.
“We are neither gods nor monsters, but people who have come to capture monsters. Tell us what the characteristics of the people who have disappeared here recently are and where most of them disappeared.”
Lu Cheng slightly used his sword intention to suppress the extreme emotions of these mortals such as fear, ecstasy, etc., allowing them to calm down in a short time.
“Reporting to the Immortal, most of the missing people were local young and strong men. Many of them disappeared on the way to the city. At first, there were only three or five people. Later, even if there were ten or twenty people together, they would disappear. will suddenly disappear without a trace There is no trace and we can’t live anymore. We made an appointment to go to Luoxia City with our families. Disappearances in the city are relatively rare.”
The old man who was relatively calm among the crowd answered. Lu Cheng's question.
Lu Cheng threw him a spiritual stone and then flew high into the sky. The mortals below who were immobilized also quickly recovered.
At this moment they finally knew that they had encountered a fairy, not a monster.
"It seems that it is indeed not the same thing. This time we encountered the blood refining weapon."
The blood refining tool is a side door in the refining art. You must know that if you want to improve It is extremely difficult to determine the level power of a magic weapon, but with the help of living souls, one can easily control the level power of a magic weapon. Ascension, although this method is easy to use, it will also cut off the possibility of further refinement of the magic weapon. Therefore, even the more sophisticated evil demon monks are unwilling to do this kind of thing wantonly. However, there are also some evil cultivators who, as long as they Their magic power is so strong that no matter how many people they have to kill, they are still willing to do it.
Lu Cheng flew the Cloud Calling Flag for a while in mid-air, found a place with dark red soil, dropped it, and then summoned the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu.
“Take us to the source of the blood energy.”
The Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu is vicious in nature, and it is best at tracking this kind of blood energy.
Half an hour later, under the guidance of this golden Gu worm, the five people from Lu Cheng arrived at an extremely hidden cave in a dense forest.
"Ouch, ow, ow, ow... ow"
Even before they got close, there were waves of huge and terrifying howls coming from the cave, and a fierce evil spirit suddenly spread. Come on.
“This kind of evil aura is a fourth-order monster?”
Feeling the intensity of this evil aura, Guan Linxiang and Xu Hanxiang looked at each other, and finally turned their attention to Lu Cheng On senior brother.
After all, he was the one who made the decision on this trip.
"The fourth-order monster? The art of blood refining?"
The appearance of the fourth-order monster here is indeed a bit unexpected.
Logically speaking, Lu Cheng should immediately withdraw with his junior brothers and sisters at this time and return to the sect to report the matter.
After all, the safety of the junior brothers and sisters is more important than the entrusted task.
"But why are fourth-level monsters always staring at mortals? And this cave is equipped with a third-level defensive formation."
While Lu Cheng was thinking, the howling and the spreading The demonic energy was quickly interrupted.
"Severely injured monster? This is the blood refining technique of Wandering Soul City! They are not refining a magic weapon with blood, but a forbidden god card."
Guan Lin Xiang suddenly exclaimed, making Lu Cheng look over.
Wandering Soul City is one of the sixteen evil sects in the world and an affiliated force of the Dongyang Demon Sect, the largest sect of demons.
Wandering Soul City is good at the forbidden arts of spiritual consciousness, expelling Yin spirits and resurrecting the dead. Of course, what is resurrected is the body. It is not known whether the person inside is still the original person or even a human being.
“I have read in a book newly collected by the sect that the Oriental Demon Sect Wandering Soul City has a blood refining and sacrificing technique, which can refining a forbidden god card with blood, so that the foundation-building monks can control it. The fourth-level monster is his trump card," Guan Linxiang explained when he saw others looking at him.
“That means there are monks from Wandering Soul City inside?”
“That’s not necessarily true. Wandering Soul City likes to spread those newly created magic skills and techniques, and then use the skills of those casual cultivators to Cultivation status, correction of magic skills.”
Lu Cheng listened to their conversation and finally made up his mind.
The most important thing is that after more than ten years of training, his Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu has become a swarm. Thirteen of the golden silkworm Gu in that nest have even been promoted to the third level. Even when facing fourth level monsters, use them After the break, it is not difficult to take away the junior brothers and sisters safely.
“If they are ordinary evil cultivators, that’s it. If they are really evil cultivators from Wandering Soul City, let them do whatever they want in the realm of my Huoyun Mansion, and finally get what they want and escape, my Huoyun Mansion will lose face. Where is it?”
After saying that, Lu Cheng waved his sleeves forward, and when he released it, the sky was filled with stars. Hundreds of second-level poisonous golden silkworm Gu flew and spread, surrounding the entire evil cultivator cave, but there was no Inspire the magic circle.
"Hide and set up formations to wait for work. Even if it is such a coincidence that they have just completed the Blood Refining Sacrifice Technique. If we work together, we can prevent the other party from having a chance to summon that monster."
< br>Lu Cheng has taken care of two generations of Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu. While maintaining their ferocious nature, these demonic insects have inherited bloodline memories and are naturally close to Lu Cheng. Therefore, Lu Cheng can drive them with minimal consumption of spiritual consciousness. A swarm of poisonous golden silkworms.
The disadvantage is that after the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu swarms, the demand for various spiritual objects increases sharply, and there is no upper limit at all. Therefore, it is almost impossible to bring spiritual objects from Jiuli World to Lu Cheng. Instead, Lu Cheng needs The city sends some spiritual creatures in from time to time, otherwise the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu will even eat each other and reduce the number of the group.
In addition, the world of Jiuli is not completely safe, or that world is extremely dangerous: the more ferocious the monsters are, the more ferocious the environment in the world in Jiuli Ding.
So the newly born red dragon entered a world of clear water and green mountains, while the hundred-poison golden silkworm Gu entered a world of constant fighting.
Even if one day the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu swarm in the cauldron is wiped out, Lu Cheng will not be surprised. He can only say that he will try his best to avoid it.
After the first generation of Golden Silkworm Gu entered the insect nest, Lu Cheng's Yuan Consciousness could no longer possess it. The insect nest was a forbidden area for Golden Silkworm Gu, and Lu Cheng's Yuan Consciousness was prohibited from entering.
This wait is seven days. If Lu Cheng's Golden Silkworm Gu swarm hadn't discovered that there was no other way in and out of this cave, even Lu Cheng would have been doubtful.
"Awwwwww"
Suddenly, the roar of the fourth-level monster once again spread from the evil cultivator cave, accompanied by a violent force The flame-like spread of demonic energy was far stronger than the one seven days ago.
The stone door of the Evil Cultivation Cave suddenly opened, and two foundation-building monks quickly escaped with their magical weapons. However, they did not walk in a straight line, but turned seven or eight times. It seemed that there was a wall in the void before they flew Escape.
"Damn, can that dog demon be raised well? How many times have I tried this, and I still can't plant the Forbidden God Card. This is the territory of Huoyun Mansion, and too many people have been killed. It won’t be long before you are struck by a flying sword!”
A horse-faced monk wielding a black flying hook cursed like this.
"Shut up, as long as the eldest brother becomes our brother, we brothers will be able to stand upright and be human beings in the future. When the time comes, we will also have to be a holy envoy, no less"
A cold and fierce feeling The evil spirit suddenly penetrated his whole body like cold water.
At the same time, the monk driving the long banner watched helplessly as his companions beside him were surrounded by four flying swords of various colors, but he himself seemed unable to move a finger.
The mana in the body wants to circulate with thoughts and resist fiercely, but it is continuously extracted by an inexplicable force from the outside world, making it difficult to condense the mana.
"What's going on?"
This was his last thought in this life, because a sword light had cut him in half from bottom to top, and blood exploded.
In fact, Lu Cheng's sword is one step faster than the swords of Guan Linxiang, Xia Xixiao, Xu Hanxiang, and Xu Xinyu. Even if he uses his sword intention to become powerful, seize the sky and transform spirits, and finally releases the sword, It's still the last to arrive first and one step faster.
The reason why the monk holding the banner still wanted to rescue the horse-faced monk was because Lu Cheng's flying sword was too fast, and his thoughts were slow and he did not realize that the flying sword was already killing the physical body.
But this is also a good thing, at least he did not feel any pain until his death. For him, it's a good thing.
When fighting against a master, Lu Cheng's sword intent can no longer be used easily, because the master's concentration will greatly reduce the power of the sword intent once he has to guard against it. So it is better to keep the sword intent and use it in the battle. Explode when necessary and establish the killing potential in one fell swoop.
However, neither of the two people just now could be said to be masters, so Lu Cheng was defeated in an instant and did not care about the seriously injured horse-faced monk beside him. The trajectory out of the cave was reversed, and he quickly rushed into the evil cultivator cave.
Soldiers value speed, this is the most important thing. Fast and ruthless attacks can often break through many exquisite preparations unreasonably.
For example, at this moment, the white-haired demon cultivator in the cave was building the ninth level of cultivation. He was using a blood-colored token to suppress the mad dog demon in the cave.
Suddenly I felt the sword energy behind me blazing and sharp. I turned around suddenly and saw that the monk with sword and man was already approaching me.
The Five Elements Swordsmanship and the Pulse-Breaking Sword Qi, combined with the mana and energy just taken away, turned into real fire and covered it. The sword Qi suddenly rose sharply and became extremely powerful.
Stab it.
"Ahhh..."
The white-haired demonic cultivator successfully raised his defensive magic weapon and activated his body-protecting magic power with all his strength, but the sword light cut into his shoulder and chest, and the powerful magic power and The sword energy collided hard.
After the blood mist exploded, the man could no longer control his body shape and fell into the cave behind him.
Normally this is nothing, but at this moment, there is a huge dog demon with red eyes in the cave. It swoops up and swallows the white-haired demon cultivator in one gulp. Grinding its teeth, the bones and flesh are rotten in an instant. Gastrointestinal.
“What a monster!”
Lu Cheng also sighed softly when he saw this. What he saw in front of him was a short-haired white dog with a thin waist, but its body was like a giant elephant, and its head was just as big as that of a giant elephant. He was two or three stories tall, with red eyes and sharp teeth. His mouth was full of blood at this moment, and he was extremely cruel and cruel.
The white-haired demon cultivator just received the sword, and the blood-colored jade token in his hand fell to the ground. Lu Cheng picked it up, and the dog demon who had just swallowed the flesh and blood seemed to be violently stimulated. Howling and rushing.
