Chapter 812: Using Wu Tao as a Bet
The forests on the edge of Dongyuezhou were quiet.
Only Wu Tao was suspended in the void.
The remaining fighting spirit in the space made people know that a great battle had taken place here.
Wu Tao cleaned up the place because his attack was too fierce. Even if he held back, some magic weapons still fell into the forest, and some were broken by Wu Tao.
Now the War Merit Hall has a new magic weapon recycling function. Looking at the magic weapons that he had broken, Wu Tao still felt a little distressed.
"These are all war merits!"
After cleaning up, Wu Tao looked at the War Merit Hall brand on his wrist, activated the brand without hesitation, and entered the War Merit Hall.
Because of this battle, his current war merits have accumulated more than 3,000, which can be exchanged for many cultivation resources he needs.
In addition, he seized so many magic weapons, and he could also get a lot of war merits by recycling them in the War Merit Hall, which could satisfy his cultivation for a long time.
Just as Wu Tao entered the Battle Hall and left this area, a stream of light appeared. These streams of light revealed the figures of cultivators, all of whom were at the Jindan level.
All the Yuanying cultivators in the border areas of the entire Dongyuezhou, except for those who were in seclusion, came to besiege Wu Tao.
These Jindan cultivators were all Jindan from various sects in the border areas of Dongyuezhou. They knew that the outer demon was at the Yuanying level, so they let the Yuanying Zhenjun of their own sects besiege it. They were only Jindan cultivators and did not dare to participate in the battle at the Yuanying level.
Otherwise, just the aftermath would cause them to be seriously injured, and in more serious cases, they would die, their Jindan would be shattered, and their lifelong cultivation would become nothingness.
"Where is this outer demon, where are the Yuanying Zhenjun of our Dongyuezhou?"
The Jindan cultivators looked puzzled and were completely confused.
When they were fighting here, they felt that the momentum here was very shocking, so that they could feel the intense fighting from thousands of miles away.
But when the fighting calmed down, these Jindan cultivators came over and found that there was no one.
The outer demon disappeared, and similarly, the Yuanying Zhenjuns in the border areas of Dongyuezhou also disappeared one by one.
As for the Yuanying Zhenjuns in the border areas of Dongyuezhou chasing the outer demon, that was impossible, because there were Jindan cultivators in all directions feeling the fighting here. If they went to chase and kill, there would always be Jindans who saw it.
But the current situation is that no one saw it, so it does not exist.
"Did the demon from outside the domain perish together with the Yuanying Zhenjuns of our Dongyuezhou?"
"How is it possible? According to Uncle Zhao, the demon from outside the domain was only at the second level of Yuanying, while Uncle Zhao in my sect was at the sixth level of Yuanying. There are also Zhenjuns at the sixth level of Yuanying in other Yuanying sects. How could more than 20 people besiege a second-level Yuanying and perish together?"
"Although the classics of our sect record that the demon from outside the domain is indeed very strong and can often cross borders to kill enemies, it is impossible for it to cross four boundaries, let alone cross four boundaries under the siege of so many Yuanying Zhenjuns."
"Then tell me, where did Uncle Yuanying Zhenjun and the others go?" someone retorted.
"Let's look for it first. If they really died together, we can always find some traces!"
"Okay, then let's look carefully. If we can't find the traces of the Yuanying uncles, we can only go back to the sect and ask those Yuanying Zhenjuns who are in seclusion to come out and investigate here!"
So, these Jindan cultivators in the edge of Dongyuezhou began to search this area.
There was no trace of the energy in the sky, the aftermath of the fight had dissipated, and the breath of any Yuanying cultivators had also dissipated.
But people always have corpses when they die, so they found broken corpses in the mountains and forests below. Some of the corpses could not see the human shape at all, and they were scattered or pieces of meat. The main reason was that Wu Tao had nine attack magic weapons, and even if they were wearing fourth-level defense robes, they would be smashed to pieces by Wu Tao.
The defensive robes and the body were shattered together, which is why Wu Tao felt distressed. Many fourth-level defensive robes were tattered. If they were taken to the War Merit Hall for recycling, they would definitely be greatly discounted.
The more they searched the mountain and forest below, the more thrilling it was, because the broken bodies of the Yuanying Zhenjun below exuded their breath when they were alive. Some cultivators in their own sects were very familiar with the breath of their Yuanying uncles.
"Uncle Zhao, how could you die in the hands of the outer demon? How is it possible? Uncle Zhao, you are the sixth level of the Yuanying, and the outer demon membrane is only the second level of the Yuanying." The Jindan cultivator of Zhao Daoyou's sect found Zhao Daoyou's body.
Zhao Daoyou was not killed by Wu Tao's 9 magic weapons, but was covered by 4 red flames, which turned him into a charcoal.
Maybe the cremation was not thorough enough, and some bones were not cremated cleanly, and the aura of Brother Zhao remained, so they were found by the Jindan cultivators of his sect.
Half an hour later, all the Jindan cultivators were silent. They found all the broken meat, residues and charred bodies that carried the aura of Yuanying Zhenjun and put them together.
The aura of Yuanying Zhenjun of their sect could be sensed in these broken meat, residues and charred bodies.
More than 20 people, no one was lucky enough to escape, all of them were here, and not even a fragment of the magic weapon they had in their lifetime was left.
And they didn't sense the remains of the extraterritorial demon, so there was only one possibility, that the Yuanying True Lords of their sect besieged the extraterritorial demon at the second level of the Yuanying, but were all killed by the extraterritorial demon at the second level of the Yuanying.
The magic weapon on his body was naturally taken away by the extraterritorial demon as a trophy.
"Impossible, how could the extraterritorial demon at the second level of the Yuanying be so powerful?"
Some people didn't dare to accept this reality and shouted with a crazy look on their faces.
There is a Jindan cultivator who is more rational. He pointed to a wreckage and said, "This is Yuan Gang Yuan Zhenjun from the Yuanying Sect in the border area of Dong Shenzhou. He is the spy left by Xiao Tiandao Xiao Zhenjun, the chief disciple of the Guyang Sect of Dong Shenzhou Shenzong. He appeared here and must have sent a message to Chief Xiao of Guyang Sect before he died."
"Then Chief Xiao will come here to search soon after receiving the message. In this way, the extraterritorial demon will definitely die."
"I hope Chief Xiao will come here soon to avenge all the Yuanying uncles in the border area of Dongyuezhou!"
There is another Jindan cultivator. Said: "Waiting for Chief Xiao to come is still too slow. You and I should act separately and report the matter of the extraterritorial demon to the three major divine sects in Dongyuezhou, and ask the three major divine sects to come forward!"
"Then ask a few Taoist friends to go to the nearest Taiyue Divine Sect first. Last time I heard Chief Xiao say that Chief Gu of Taiyue Divine Sect is also searching for the traces of extraterritorial demons."
So these Jindan immortal cultivators split into two groups. Some stayed here to wait for the arrival of Xiao Tiandao, the chief of the Guyang Sect, and some went to Taiyue Divine Sect to report to Taiyue Divine Sect the news that the extraterritorial demons had descended on the edge of Dongyuezhou.
The communication talisman that Xiao Tiandao left for Yuan Gang took half a day to transmit from the edge of Dongyuezhou to Guyang Sect, and it took more than half a day from Guyang Sect to the edge of Dongyuezhou.
Therefore, half a day later, a ray of light from Guyang Sect crossed the sky, directly passed through the fifth-level sect protection formation of Guyang Sect without any obstacles, and entered the place where the chief of the Guyang Sect, Xiao Tiandao, was in seclusion.
Aunt Lin, the Yuanying Zhenjun, was guarding the place where Xiao Tiandao was in seclusion. Aunt Lin felt the communication talisman in the sky, her eyes moved, and she stretched out her hand to call the communication talisman in the sky.
The communication talisman fell into her hand and turned into a talisman paper. Aunt Lin slightly activated it, and there was a message from Yuan Gang on it, saying that the extraterritorial demon had appeared on the edge of Dongyuezhou.
When Xiao Tiandao was in seclusion, he had already told Aunt Lin that once Yuan Gang sent a message to confirm the news of the extraterritorial demon, he must be asked to come out immediately.
As Xiao Tiandao's protector, Linyi naturally took Xiao Tiandao's words as her orders. She immediately entered the hall where Xiao Tiandao was in retreat, bowed to Xiao Tiandao who was practicing with his eyes closed, and said: "Tiandao, there is news from the edge of Dongyuezhou!"
Xiao Tiandao, who was practicing in retreat, heard Aunt Lin's words, and immediately stopped practicing the skills, opened his eyes, and flashed with murderous intent in his eyes, and said in surprise: "Really?"
Aunt Lin walked forward, handed the communication talisman in her hand to Xiao Tiandao and said: "Tiandao, this is the communication talisman you left for Yuan Gang."
Xiao Tiandao took the communication talisman, read the information, and showed a happy look in his eyes. He immediately got up from the futon and said to Aunt Lin: "Aunt Lin, you go and gather the people immediately, and we will go to Dongyuezhou together. This time, we must not let the extraterritorial demon escape."
Aunt Lin immediately bowed and accepted the order, and went to gather the people. The people were all Yuanying Zhenjun of Guyang Sect who had followed Xiao Tiandao to Dongyuezhou before.
Many of these Yuanying cultivators are stronger than Xiao Tiandao, and some are at the ninth level of Yuanying. Although it was a wasted trip last time, it has been less than a year. Xiao Tiandao asked them to go to Dongyuezhou again, saying that the outer demon appeared. Although they didn't want to run, Xiao Tiandao was the chief disciple of Guyang Sect after all, and it is very likely that he will take over the position of the sect master in the future.
Xiao Tiandao's face still needs to be given.
So under the leadership of Xiao Tiandao, these Yuanying cultivators of Guyang Sect rushed to Dongyuezhou with great momentum.
"I will not return to Guyang Sect unless I kill the outer demon this time." Xiao Tiandao said this when he set off.
Xiao Tiandao was very angry after the last wasted trip to Dongyuezhou. As the chief disciple, he had never encountered the outer demon, and he especially wanted to try the gold content of the outer demon to see if it was as recorded in ancient books.
Speed is of the essence in war. He didn't want those Yuanying Zhenjuns in the border areas of Dongyuezhou to report the news of the extraterritorial demon to Gu Tianling of Taiyue Divine Sect. Once Gu Tianling took action, the extraterritorial demon would surely die.
Because Gu Tianling had the same cultivation as him, one of them was in Dongshenzhou and the other in Dongyuezhou, and both were the chief disciples of the Divine Sect. Naturally, they had fought several times, and there were both wins and losses, and no one would admit defeat.
When Xiao Tiandao entered Dongyuezhou, the Jindan cultivators in the border areas of Dongyuezhou also successfully met Gu Tianling, the chief disciple of Taiyue Divine Sect. When Gu Tianling heard that the extraterritorial demon appeared in the border areas of Dongyuezhou, he was excited and immediately gathered the people of Taiyue Divine Sect and rushed to the border areas of Dongyuezhou.
Taiyue Divine Sect is in Dongyue Province, so Gu Tianling arrived at the edge of Dongyue Province earlier than Xiao Tiandao. As soon as he arrived, he began to ask the Jindan cultivators in the edge of Dongyue Province about the situation.
Then he investigated and found that all the Yuanying Zhenjuns in the edge of Dongyue Province were dead, killed by the outer demon.
"This demon from outside the domain is only at the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm, but he was able to fight back against more than 20 Nascent Soul True Lords and kill them all. He is truly worthy of being a demon from outside the domain. I am really looking forward to the day when I can find you." Gu Tianling's face showed anticipation.
At this time, Xiao Tiandao also came with the cultivators of the Ancient Yang Sect. When he saw Gu Tianling, his brows slightly frowned, but he still brought people to Gu Tianling.
Gu Tianling saw Xiao Tiandao and looked a little unhappy. He said, "Xiao Tiandao, this is the territory of my Dongyuezhou. The foreign demon that appeared in the territory of Dongyuezhou does not need you, the chief of the Divine Sect of Dongshenzhou, to pass it on."
Xiao Tiandao smiled and said, "If it was a foreign demon that descended from the edge of Dongyuezhou, I would naturally not bring anyone here to disturb the fun of Gu Daoyou. But this foreign demon escaped from my Dongshenzhou and killed so many Yuanying Zhenjun in my Dongshenzhou. As the leader of all the sects in Dongshenzhou, my Guyang Sect naturally has to avenge them."
Xiao Tiandao said this, Gu Tianling really couldn't refute it. He snorted coldly and said, "This demon from outside the domain is very powerful. Although he is only at the second level of the Nascent Soul, four Nascent Souls at the sixth level, more than 20 Nascent Soul cultivators, could not besiege and kill him, but were all killed."
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, I wonder if you have this strength in the second level of the Nascent Soul?"
Hearing Gu Tianling's question, Xiao Tiandao felt a little unhappy, but he still admitted generously: "Don't say that I don't have this strength in the second level of the Nascent Soul, even the fourth level of the Nascent Soul doesn't have this strength."
What he meant was that he had this strength when he reached the fifth level of the Nascent Soul.
Seeing his generosity, Gu Tianling also admitted: "I am like Fellow Daoist Xiao, so Fellow Daoist Xiao, this cultivator at the second level of the Nascent Soul, you and I may not be able to kill him if we fight alone."
"Fellow Daoist Gu, you also said it's not necessarily true. You must have some idea when you say this, right?" Xiao Tiandao frowned slightly. He heard something interesting in Gu Tianling's words.
He knew Gu Tianling too well.
Gu Tianling looked at Xiao Tiandao and said with a smile: "I heard that Xiao Daoyou got a magic pill. I want to make a bet with Xiao Daoyou. You and I will fight against the foreign demon alone. Whoever can kill the foreign demon alone will get the magic pill.?"
Seeing Xiao Tiandao frowning, Gu Tianling continued: "Of course, Xiao Daoyou will also give out treasures of the same value. If Gu kills the foreign demon, Xiao Daoyou's magic pill will belong to me. If Xiao Daoyou kills the foreign demon, my treasure will belong to Xiao Daoyou. How about it?"
Xiao Tiandao looked at Gu Tianling and said: "Gu Daoyou, your treasure, but?"
He didn't finish everything. , but he knew that Gu Tianling knew what he was talking about. Gu Tianling nodded at him and said, "That's right. Your elixir and the treasure I got should be used together to exert the greatest effect."
"Now that they are separated, although they are helpful to us, they are not the greatest help. Therefore, I want to make this bet with Xiao Daoyou."
"What do you think, Xiao Daoyou?"
Xiao Tiandao pondered for a moment, and he was also moved in his heart. Thinking that the extraterritorial demon was only at the second level of the Nascent Soul, with his current cultivation, he should be able to kill it alone, and Gu Tianling's bet was too tempting.
After a while, Xiao Tiandao finally nodded and said, "This bet, Xiao, I accept it!"
"As expected of Xiao Daoyou, Gu admires you."
Xiao Tiandao snorted coldly and said, "Then let's see who finds the extraterritorial demon first!"
