Chapter 279 Mirror Umbrella Kills Evil and Restrains It


The Book of Songs says so.

'Mayflies, if you miss the canal, will live and die every day'

Guo Pu, the Feng Shui master of the Jin Dynasty, also wrote in his poem about traveling to immortals, 'If I ask about the generation of mayflies, I would rather know the Year of the Turtle and the Crane'.

Generally speaking, the life span of an adult mayfly is extremely short, ranging from a few hours to a day, or even longer, only six or seven days, before it completes its life.

So, life and death are no exaggeration.

But these insects in front of me seem to have been living here for countless years.

Using the sacred tree as a nest, it sleeps all year round.

Even if Chen Yulou is born with night eyes, it is difficult to detect their existence, so that at first, he thought they were just the color of the Kunlun sacred tree itself.

“Be careful!”

“Shopkeeper, be careful!”

The sudden change shocked not only Chen Yulou, but also everyone at the Shimen behind him.

Kunlun was even more anxious.

With an exclamation, he stood up and was about to rush out.

But there is someone faster than him.

The toe of Partridge Mountain is a little bit higher, and the rabbit rises and the falcon falls, landing on the big lake almost in the blink of an eye. Stepping on the water, relying on the weak counter-shock force, the person jumped up again.

"Brother Chen... go on!"

While still in mid-air, he took off his umbrella with his backhand and opened it with a bang.

Throw it away.

The forty-nine Dharma mirrors under the umbrella are like waterfalls of golden light, all shining on the 'dark clouds' rising on the island.

The mirror umbrella of the Bishan lineage was taken out from a Taoist ruins by the previous generation of Taoist Bishan. Before entering the country, they, a brother and sister, only treated it as a protective object.

It is impervious to wind and rain, and impervious to water and fire.

Even if you encounter a powerful crossbow and hidden arrow trap, you can still stop it with a mirror umbrella.

I have saved them countless times over the years.

Now, a wisp of majestic spiritual energy enters from the handle of the umbrella, and the golden light rises from the umbrella with an astonishing momentum.

Boom——

The Taoist aura is the best at restraining evil spirits.

At this moment, the light and fire shot out, and only a bang was heard. Wherever it shined, the swarm of golden mayflies were instantly pierced, like white snow under the scorching sun, turning into a wisp of black smoke.

Seeing this situation, Chen Yulou's heart moved and he subconsciously reached out to catch it.

Before entering the cave, he protected his whole body with spiritual energy. Although the golden mayflies outside him were strange, it was impossible to break through the protection.

However.

He had seen this mountain-moving magic weapon many times before.

But he has never had such a terrifying ability.

For a moment, I couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Crash——

At this moment, holding the handle of the umbrella, a ray of inspiration burst out from the golden elixir. In an instant, the entire mirror umbrella seemed to have turned into a ball of flame, burning blazingly. .

The golden light is blazing.

Like a big sun.

Almost instantly, the entire underground cave was illuminated as brightly as daylight.

"This..."

Partridge Whistle, who was still planning to help, saw this shocking situation and froze on the spot, his pupils constricted, feeling indescribably shocked.

It has been more than ten years since the previous generation of Banshan Taoist passed down the mirror umbrella to him.

After that, he gave the remaining two to the old foreigner and Hua Ling respectively.

In today's world, he has always felt that no one can surpass him in terms of familiarity and depth of understanding of this magical weapon.

In particular, the spiritual energy travels along the umbrella ribs, and the energy ignites the magic mirror to achieve the effect of suppressing evil and destroying evil spirits.

Even the previous generations of Banshan Taoists could not do this in their entire lives.

But he never expected it.

Chen Yulou only came into contact with this object for the first time. With a wave of his hand, the golden light blooming in the magic mirror was more than a hundred times greater than his own.

Although the mirror umbrella magic weapon can also be activated by Qi and blood.

But the effect is not as good as in case.

The only real way to use it is spiritual energy.

He had already confirmed this.

And the more majestic the aura is and the deeper the aura is, the more terrifying the power of the mirror umbrella becomes.

So... from this we can actually judge whether the person using the umbrella is strong or not.

Standing on a rock, Partridge Whistle raised his head, his amber eyes almost dyed golden by the blazing light.

In the clenched hands, there is another mirror umbrella.

It's the one that belongs to the old foreigner.

But at this moment, he no longer had the courage to stand up in front of Chen Yulou.

"On top of the foundation."

"Formulating elixirs?"

There seemed to be countless voices shouting in the heart of Partridge Whistle.

Before this, he had guessed Chen Yulou's realm countless times, but it had never been as clear as it is today.

According to the records in Xuandao Foundation Building Technique.

In the realm of cultivation, gathering qi, nourishing qi, and refining qi, after passing through three small realms, the foundation is completed.

Although the levels further down are broken.

Not recorded.

But it can be deduced from the six-winged centipede and the corpse king in Pingshan.

After building the foundation, it is time to condense the pill.

The monster builds the foundation to condense the demon elixir, the corpse king builds the foundation to produce the corpse elixir, and the Taoist... is naturally a pool of water and fire alchemy elixir!

After all, whether it is the Six-winged Centipede, the Pingshan Corpse King, or all of them, they all follow the path of breathing and channeling spiritual energy.

Although they are different species, their realm is the same.

Now...seeing the blazing golden light erupting from the mirror umbrella in Chen Yulou's hand, he still didn't understand. Unknowingly, this brother Chen, who had always been so secretive, had already left them all far behind. behind.

Stepping into the realm where the six-winged centipede was.

The most important thing is.

Human beings are the most powerful beings in the world. Breathing and breathing are derived from the circulation of the twelve meridians in the human body and the two meridians of Ren and Du. They have natural advantages in practicing Xuan to Convincing Qi and building the foundation.

Looks like the same realm.

If he really wanted to return to Pingshan with this body, that six-winged centipede might not even be able to block Chen Yulou's sword.

The other side.

Chen Yulou was completely immersed in the mirror umbrella, unaware of the movements behind him.

I originally thought that the magic whip in Yang Fang's hand was already amazing enough, but I didn't expect... the magical weapon of Moving Mountain Lineage was no less impressive.

Almost in the blink of an eye.

The swarm of golden mayflies on the Kunlun sacred tree was pierced through.

The true form of the sacred tree is revealed.

The whole body is as smooth as jade, and the delicate and transparent texture seems to be mixed with a fine layer of gold sand, emitting a faint light under the light.

Compared with the Dharma drum hanging on Azhiya's waist, although it is also made of Kunlun sacred wood, it is many times more gorgeous.

It's like...the ancient tree in front of me is still alive.

The sacred tree of the Dharma Drum has lost its vitality.

Chen Yulou was shocked and confused for a while.

He had seen many ancient pines and strong bamboos taking root in the mountains, but these sacred trees in front of him looked like they had been dead for countless years.

How can it survive to this day?

"Brother Chen..."

While he was observing intently, a low voice suddenly came from behind him.

Looking back.

You can see Partridge Whistle’s complicated face at a glance.

"Brother Dao, what is this?"

Seeing his expression, Chen Yulou didn't react for a while.

"No, nothing?"

Shaking his head and taking a few deep breaths to calm down, Partridge Whistle pointed at the insect corpses scattered all over the ground. Under the mirror, most of the insect corpses They were all directly eliminated, but a few slipped through the net.

Still struggling at this moment.

“Is this what Miss Oona was talking about?”

“It should be.”

Chen Yulou nodded.

The mayflies here are invisible and airless. Although they are named after gold characters, in fact, the color of their bodies is constantly changing according to the things they are attached to.

Just like the few remaining ones on the ground now, they are almost integrated into the wind-eroded rocks quietly.

If it weren’t for the crazy struggle.

It is almost impossible to detect their presence.

It is precisely because of such strange characteristics that Oona displays an uneasiness that is completely different from the past. Perhaps, when the father and daughter came here, they encountered a lot of trouble from these insects.

“How could such a ghost appear in the underground cave?”

Partridge Whistle looked strange.

At least before arriving here, I had traveled hundreds of miles across the Black Desert and had never seen it once.

It doesn't make sense to say that they only exist in places with water. After all, the Zidu Underwater River never dries up all year round, and there are several puddles in the vast black desert that never dry up.

They also got water when they came.

"It's probably because of it..."

Faced with his doubts, Chen Yulou just pointed at the sacred tree outside him. Even without the light of the scenery, it looked like it in the night Still shining brightly, floating light leaping into gold.

And surrounded by black mist, among the cliffs, and deep in the lake.

Countless mayflies that never died flew towards it desperately and attached themselves to the sacred tree.

Looks like...a moth flying into a flame!

Seeing this scene, Partridge Whistle couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and a bold idea suddenly came to his mind.

“It’s not still alive, is it?”

Although he has never practiced the Green Wood Immortality Technique, after entering the country, his five senses and six senses are far superior to ordinary people, and he can also detect the overflowing from the sacred tree. The majestic vitality that emerges.

A living sacred tree!

Once this news gets out, I am afraid it will attract the prying eyes of countless practitioners.

"It should be."

"Mayflies live and die, but they...live at least a few years or even decades."

"I'm afraid it's with the help of the sacred tree ”

Chen Yulou did not hide it, but told the truth about his guess.

Although there are several practitioners in their group, the sacred tree is not the big medicine that grows in the yam wall and can be used to refine elixirs for practice.

Even if you can cut down the sacred tree.

How to preserve it to ensure that the spiritual energy is not lost is a huge problem.

Not to mention, how can we express the inspiration contained in it.

However, the Qingmu Longevity Technique he practiced was a perfect fit.

In other words, he is the only one who can practice this.

"Then... Oona?"

Partridge Whistle reacted very quickly and immediately thought of the key.

But Chen Yulou just shook his head and smiled, "Brother Tao, don't worry, there are at least a dozen plants around this small lake."

"It's just that they should all be dead."

The ancients didn't know if they found traces of the Demon Kingdom or found a clue from the ancient scriptures. In short, they found somewhere in the Kunlun Mountains these ancient sacred trees.

Move them here from a thousand miles away.

Unfortunately, Zagrama Mountain is far inferior to Kunlun Mountain in terms of aura and ground.

The sacred trees died one by one in the endless years.

The ancients were extremely capable, but they were powerless.

In the end, only this one was left.

"Brother Chen, do you want to use it to practice?"

Having heard the hidden meaning in his words, Partridge Whistle lowered his voice and asked.

Although Chen Yulou has never exposed the method he practices so far, he can still guess a thing or two whether it is a bottle of yam wall, or Zhixian and fleshy root under Zhelong Mountain.

His eyes flickered at this moment.

Obviously I took a fancy to it.

"Practice does not take half a day, nor can it be achieved even in a short while."

"Let's wait until this time is over."

Chen Yulou waved his hand.

He actually wanted to leave everyone behind and stay here to practice in seclusion.

But behind the cave wall ahead is the Snake Cave.

How can I feel at ease when those ghosts are surrounding me across the wall?

"Yes."

Partridge Whistle nodded, not surprised.

After knowing each other for such a long time, he has always made plans before making any moves.

Zhizhizhi——

While the two were talking.

Countless gerbils suddenly emerged from the cliff, like sand wolves, menacing and shockingly ferocious, and they seemed completely unafraid of the people around them.

Not even looking at them.

He just rushed madly towards the underground lake.

Devouring those mayflies desperately.

Not to be outdone, the mayflies condensed into a dark cloud and attached themselves to the gerbil. In the blink of an eye, the wolf-like gerbil was sucked dry of its blood, leaving only a pile of dead bones and empty skins.

"This..."

See this situation.

Everyone outside the door couldn't help but look sad.

Before, they saw the mirror light under the umbrella sweeping across, and the insect swarm was helpless. They thought those insect larvae were no threat.

Until now.

Watch the gerbil die instantly.

Everyone finally understood why Oona was so afraid of small bugs.

"Grandma, those mice must have turned into spirits."

"I used to hear people say that mountain spirits are wild monsters, but now I have learned a lot."

"Don't He said, if you catch one of these things and sell them to those gentlemen in the provincial capital who like rare things, you might be able to make a fortune. "

"As long as you are not afraid of being eaten by them in the middle of the night."

No one is in a hurry to go deeper.

Instead, he watched the fight quietly and interestingly.

Mayflies are as numerous as gadflies, but their strength is low. Although there are few gerbils, they are full of ferocity. They can open their huge mouths and swallow dozens or hundreds in the blink of an eye.

I don’t know how long it will take.

The melee finally ended with the gerbil's tragic victory.

Throwing away a dozen corpses,

The remaining gerbils chose to leave after a hearty meal.

As for those golden mayflies that can kill people invisibly, they are defenseless against natural enemies and most of them are devoured. The remaining ones can only cling to the sacred tree and desperately devour the spirit machine.

“Those mice are smart.”

“They know how to catch fish in the same rut.”

The Partridge Whistle looked at it with great interest and couldn’t help but sigh.

There is already a shortage of food in the black desert, and those sand wolves may not be able to catch a single prey even if they are busy all day.

They are good.

Just treat these golden ephemera as self-service.

The reproduction ability of mayflies is amazing.

Harvest once in a while.

It's like having an endless supply of food.

Although it is an extremely ugly sewer beast, I have to say that the situation here is quite consistent with his method of restraint in moving mountains.

"The mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind, Taoist brother, don't forget those black snakes..."

Chen Yulou smiled.

Suddenly pointed to the other side where the gerbil disappeared.

In the cracks of the cliff shrouded in darkness, countless ghostly ghosts and ghosts were floating at some unknown time.

Look carefully.

It was clearly countless black snakes, with their heads held high, and a pair of huge pupils above their heads, staring greedily at the gerbil corpses.

Look at those dim lights flickering.

At least there are hundreds of them.

It is completely different from the baby snakes on the top of the temple before.

The black snake that appeared in the crack ranged from one or two meters long to half a person's height. It had distinct layers of scales on its body and cold eyes, which made people shudder.

Soon, rustling and weird sounds of mucus wrapped around him came in the darkness.

“I almost forgot about them.”

Partridge Whistle’s pupils shrank, those black snakes impressed him too deeply.

Not just the thirteen corpses outside the city.

There are also ancient memories engraved in our bones.

"Brother Chen, use fire?"

The black snake is afraid of fire and the sun. This is the conclusion that has been reached before.

So many black snakes are here suddenly.

If we use fire to attack, wouldn't we be able to catch them all in one fell swoop?

But after hearing this suggestion, Chen Yulou did not agree.

"This is just the tip of the iceberg. The real big role has not yet appeared. Brother Tao... why not wait and see?" (End of this chapter)
