Chapter 1287 Ghost Gate
The Meteor Star Formation is an attack formation inherited from Longhu Mountain. It is a very complex formation that uses the stars as the flesh, the Nine Palaces and Bagua as the bones, and the heavenly stems and earthly branches as the skin.
This kind of magic circle can summon the power of meteors to attack targets within the circle, and it is very powerful.
To use Uncle Feng's words to describe it, once the meteor formation was launched, the corpse demon Su Yi encountered before could not survive for even a second.
As for the reverse yin and yang formation, it is the unique skill of the Qingwei sect. This formation can reverse the yin and yang energy. The yang pole generates yin, and the yin pole generates yang.
This formation is set on the periphery of the meteor formation, which is an extra layer of insurance.
The Meteor Star Formation is responsible for breaking through the formation's eyes and defending against attacks in the formation's eyes; and once the Meteor Star Formation cannot hold on, there will be another wave of counter-Yin Yang Formation to block it.
After these two large formations were deployed, everyone felt much more at ease.
Soon, with the collective action of everyone, another sarcophagus was lifted out.
Like the previous sarcophagi, this sarcophagus was still buried vertically in the ground, but the shape of this sarcophagus was different from ordinary coffins. It looked more like a huge stone slab, wide and large.
There was trouble when discussing how to open the coffin.
Opening the coffin is the most dangerous thing. Once the coffin is opened, no one knows what will happen.
The most important thing is that someone must stand beside the coffin when opening the coffin. Once any problem occurs, it will happen in an instant, and it is difficult for ordinary people to react.
To put it ten thousand steps back, no matter how quick your reaction is, you still won't be able to escape from the formation.
And as long as you are in this formation, there will be great danger.
Therefore, one person must risk a narrow escape and stay in the formation to open the coffin, while the rest withdraw from the formation and wait outside.
Although these twenty-odd cultivators were all prepared to sacrifice, they sacrificed themselves outside the gate of hell without even seeing Mao Sheqing, which was obviously not a show of publicity.
Everyone discussed and discussed, but no one took the initiative to ask Ying to do this, and finally decided to draw a death lottery to decide.
Zhang Zhenren of Longhushan is the leader of the team. Everyone first excluded him and let him preside over the draw.
The form of drawing lots is also very "cultivation style". A peach wood sword, a rotating talisman, stick the talisman paper on the peach wood sword, place the sword on a smooth tombstone lying flat, activate the talisman, and the peach wood sword will start to rotate. .
More than twenty practitioners formed a circle. After the peach wood sword stopped, whoever the sword pointed at would stay and open the coffin.
This method was fair and reasonable, and eliminated the possibility of secret operations. Everyone agreed, and the ceremony quickly began.
As Master Zhang kneaded the secrets and chanted the incantation to activate the talisman, the peach wood sword spun rapidly.
Everyone formed a circle, including Su Yi.
In fact, Su Yi thought about whether to take the initiative to ask Ying to stay and open the coffin. After all, he had martial arts skills with him. If he stayed, his chance of survival would definitely be greater than others.
But after much hesitation, he still didn't say this.
There is no doubt that this matter will be very dangerous, otherwise everyone would not be so prepared to face a powerful enemy and set up two large formations just in case.
Su Yi is good at martial arts, and his chance of survival is indeed higher than others, but whether it is for personal reasons or the overall situation of the operation, the value of him retaining his strength until the end is much higher than the value of expending it here in advance.
But if he draws lots, Su Yi will accept his fate.
Fortunately, this did not happen. The Taomu Sword slowly stopped, and the tip of the sword pointed at a slovenly middle-aged man.
Everyone looked at him. The middle-aged man was in a daze and didn't react for a while.
"Is this Fellow Daoist Jia from Jia's Trappist Academy?" Master Zhang of Longhushan looked at him with a solemn expression, "Do you agree with this result?"
The middle-aged Luotuo came back to his senses, forced out a smile, and said with a slightly hoarse voice: "I admit it, why don't I admit it? The draw is fair and reasonable, it's just my bad luck, I admit it!"
"Okay!" Zhang Zhenren took a deep breath, "Fellow Daoist Jia, is there anything else you want to say?"
Uncle Feng obviously recognized him. He took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Dagang, is there anything else you want to explain at home?"
Jia Dagang looked at Uncle Feng, shook his head and said, "When I come out, I will explain everything that needs to be explained."
"That's good." Uncle Feng said, "Try to be careful. If something unfortunate happens...don't worry, we're just a step behind you, and we'll be back with you soon."
Jia Dagang seemed to have calmed down a bit, smiled and said: "Okay, if it really comes to this point, I will definitely wait for you."
"And me!"
"And us! Brother Dagang, you won't be lonely on the road to hell!"
"Dagang, don't be too pessimistic. Be careful and you should be fine..."
People who knew him spoke one after another. Jia Dagang clasped his fists, looked around, bowed and saluted, his expression was solemn, and his eyes became determined.
Master Zhang stepped forward and began to explain the precautions to him. Jia Dagang listened very seriously and nodded repeatedly.
After a moment, as Master Zhang waved his hand, everyone exited the formation, at least fifty meters away.
But seeing Jia Dagang taking a deep breath in the field, he first took out a few talismans, muttered something, put one on his chest and legs, then placed the two talismans due east and west, and then took out A bracelet with a Five Emperors coin string, put it on your wrist.
This is his job of protection, protecting himself as much as possible and being prepared to respond to various emergencies at any time.
After doing this, he took out a knife and cut his finger, dripped blood into the gap between the coffin lid and the coffin body, and began to officially open the coffin.
He was mumbling something, and gradually, a startling red light shone through the cracks in the sarcophagus.
This was the manifestation of the consumption of yin and yang, the evaporation of yang energy, indicating that the yang energy was not enough, and the yin was strong and the yang was weak.
Seeing this, Jia Dagang did not hesitate, gritted his teeth and cut his palm hard, and blood immediately fell on the sarcophagus.
The red light gradually converged, as if there was something in the sarcophagus that sucked the yang energy back.
Just as Jia Dagang was about to continue to pinch the formula and chant the spell, his body suddenly staggered, and his palm was actually stuck on the edge of the sarcophagus.
His face suddenly changed, and he pulled hard twice, but he didn't break free!
The next second, Jia Dagang kicked his feet off the ground on the sarcophagus, trying to break free like crazy, but it was of no use.
Bang bang bang!
There were only three explosions, and three balls of blood mist rolled up on his body, but it was the talisman paper he had stuck on his body that exploded directly!
Seeing this scene, everyone's face changed drastically!
There are only two situations in which the talisman explodes. One is that it is used improperly, resulting in the conflict of attributes; the other is that it is subjected to huge force in an instant, causing the talisman to be overloaded and explode.
The current situation is obviously the second one.
"Ahhh..." Jia Dagang screamed in despair.
He suddenly raised the knife high and chopped it hard at his wrist that was sucked.
Jia Dagang screamed and chopped his wrist frantically.
But the knife was just a small dagger, how could it cut off the wrist bone in one go?
However, the strange thing is that he chopped the bones so hard that they broke, the flesh rolled up, but not even a drop of blood flowed out.
Everyone on the periphery watched this scene nervously, some exclaimed, some roared, some chanted scriptures, and some couldn't bear to watch.
Su Yi clenched his fists several times and wanted to rush in to save people, but as a master, the sense of crisis told him that even if he went in, he would die!
In the few seconds that Su Yi hesitated, something changed inside!
But Jia Dagang was uncontrollably stuck to the sarcophagus. He was originally screaming, but at this time, he stopped screaming and suddenly roared and recited the Breaking Formation Formula.
His voice was hoarse and painful. It was hard to imagine how much perseverance he had to do this at this time.
This scene made everyone's eyes split!
Including Su Yi.
Everyone knew that Jia Dagang was using his life to complete the task of breaking the formation!
If he didn't do this, he would have to draw a lot to replace him and continue to break the formation!
And this person who replaced him was basically going to die!
Jia Dagang spoke very fast, almost roaring and reciting the Breaking Formation Formula, and his whole body was torn apart, and his bones were broken. This creepy sound could be heard from a long distance.
At a certain moment...
The world seemed to be silent suddenly. The next second, a loud noise shook the world, the stone coffin exploded, and the rolling black fog spread and expanded instantly, filling the whole world!
Whoosh!
It seemed that several meteors streaked across the horizon, and fell into the rolling black fog with long tails.
This was Master Zhang activating the meteorite formation and launching the power of the meteorite.
But there was a "rumbling" sound in the black fog, as if thunder was rolling.
"Puff!"
Master Zhang of Longhu Mountain, who presided over the meteorite formation, suddenly spit out a large mouthful of blood with a "wow". He didn't have time to spit out or swallow the blood foam in his mouth, and shouted hoarsely with an extremely horrified face: "Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
While shouting, he turned around and ran!
He didn't need to remind him at all. Such a big momentum had already frightened everyone!
The moment the stone coffin exploded, many people began to turn around and run.
Uncle Feng and others were no exception. Everyone shouted and turned around and ran wildly.
The exploding black fog soon stopped spreading, as if covered by an invisible cover.
But after a pause of less than a second, there was a "crash" sound, as if glass was broken, and the rolling black fog quickly spread again!
But then it was covered by the second barrier!
Chi chi chi...
A red blood light gushed out from a corner of the cover. After only a few seconds, the blood light turned into a blazing flame, and the blazing flames gushed out more than two feet away, with a terrifying momentum!
This is the yang energy converted by the reverse yin and yang formation, but the yang energy is too rich and majestic, and it actually burned directly!
It seems that the second barrier blocked the rolling evil spirit.
But the good times did not last long. Soon, the whole world seemed to tremble. At a certain moment-
Boom!
With a louder bang, the reverse yin and yang formation was also blown up!
The thick black gas spread instantly, like a raging wave that covered the sky and the earth, sweeping everything, unstoppable!
How can a person's legs outrun the surging waves?
In just a moment, many people were swallowed up by the monstrous black fog.
Su Yi used his Qinggong to flee madly. He didn't care about much at this time. He only had time to take Uncle Li, Uncle Feng and Sang Xin with him.
He held one in each hand and another under his arm.
When passing by a woman with half of her face burned, he also held the woman under his armpit and fled madly.
In his peripheral vision, Su Yi saw that some people who couldn't escape activated their magic weapons to protect themselves.
Others didn't have time to do anything while running wildly, and were swallowed by the black fog, and then let out a creepy scream.
In just a few seconds, Su Yi ran to the front. He was keenly aware that the speed of the black fog seemed to have slowed down, so he immediately threw the four people hanging on him to the ground, kicked his feet and turned around to fly back.
Hu Yidong was carrying two big black rats and was about to be swallowed by the black fog. He was grabbed by Su Yi and flew into the air.
He screamed in fear, but he stopped immediately after seeing that it was Su Yi.
The beautiful female Taoist priest in the Mazu Temple had been half swallowed by the black fog, with only one arm exposed outside, but was grabbed by Su Yi and pulled out!
The beautiful female Taoist priest was black all over, like an African, rolling her eyes and looking unconscious. Su Yi immediately sent pure Yang internal force, and the black fog on her head steamed, and she returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
The black fog seemed to stop spreading. Su Yi threw the two people down and was about to continue saving people, but he saw that the black fog began to shrink back at a faster speed than before!
It seemed that there was a bottomless pit absorbing the black fog.
There were shadows in the shrinking black fog, and there were faint screams and cries.
When the black fog completely shrank and gathered into one place, the people who had been swallowed by the black fog before were seen scattered everywhere.
Some of them used magic tools to protect themselves, but they were unharmed.
Some of them were black all over, and fell to the ground without knowing whether they were dead or alive, and there was no movement.
Others had broken bodies, and no one knew what had torn them apart.
The scene was miserable!
Looking at the distance, in the original cemetery, a white jade ring was quietly suspended in the air, and the hole in the middle of the jade ring projected rolling black fog, which condensed and did not disperse, forming a cone.
This thing is the eye of the twenty-eight evil ghost gate array!
The black fog that just rolled and spread was also instantly sucked back by this thing.
And in the condensed black fog of the cone, there were ghost faces that appeared and disappeared from time to time, as if they were roaring and wailing, as if they were connected to another world.
The people who survived the disaster stared at the scene in front of them in shock.
For a moment, they forgot to react.
Su Yi was the first to react.
"Help!" He shouted, and flew out first, rushing to the nearest practitioner who was lying on the ground and didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
He turned the man on the ground over, but saw that his eyes were closed, his teeth were clenched, and he lost consciousness.
But he was still alive.
This man was the kind of person who didn't protect himself in the first time when the black fog attacked, but still had time to sacrifice the magic weapon and protect himself.
It was just that the evil spirit hit his body at the beginning, causing him to faint.
But he also held on for a while.
It was this moment that won him a precious life and allowed him to survive.
Su Yi slowly transferred his internal force to remove the evil spirit in his body, and the man slowly woke up.
Without waiting for his dazed eyes to regain focus, Su Yi left this person and rushed to save the next person.
