Chapter 501 The Eight Formation Cores
In the deep jungle, towering ancient trees shaded the mottled sunlight, and the forest was filled with the smell of damp soil and the fragrance of wild plants. Occasionally, the screams of birds and beasts came from the branches and leaves, as if warning something.
A clear stream meandered silently, and a few fallen leaves floated on the water, swaying gently.
Suddenly, a rapid vibration of leaves broke the silence, followed by heavy footsteps. Dust flew, and a strong smell of wild beasts came to the face. A huge monster appeared in the field of vision. It had sharp claws and fangs, fur as hard as iron armor, and two piercing eyes with a cold light.
The roar of the monster echoed in the forest, shaking the leaves one after another, as if it was a majestic declaration in its territory. Every step it took was accompanied by unparalleled momentum, shaking the earth, and small animals fled everywhere and hid in hidden corners.
Suddenly, a figure appeared silently behind the monster.
This monster is the overlord of this forest. Before, any powerful creature that dared to step into its territory would be swallowed by it.
However, this time, it could not sense the existence of the figure behind it.
Xu Jun looked at the majestic monster silently, and flicked his finger lightly.
A sword light suddenly shot out, drew a beautiful arc in the void, and then fell on the neck of the monster.
Until this moment, the monster felt the coming of danger. Its body was tense, and it rushed forward like an arrow from a string.
But unfortunately, no matter how fast it moved, it was too late to avoid the sword light at this moment.
"Puff."
A stream of blood rushed into the sky, and a big head rolled to the ground.
The overlord of the monster in this area, the last shrill roar from his mouth had not yet come out, and he had already laid down forever.
Xu Jun shook his wrist, and the sword light turned in the void like a spirit snake, returned to his hand, and disappeared in an instant.
This is not an ordinary sword energy, but his natal flying sword.
In fact, using the natal flying sword to deal with this monster with only foundation building cultivation is simply a waste of talent, killing a chicken with a butcher knife.
However, now the tacit understanding between Xu Jun and the natal flying sword is getting deeper and deeper, so he knows that if the natal flying sword is kept in the sword space for a long time, it is not the best choice.
The sword is a killing tool.
Sometimes, it still needs to be used more.
Just like practicing martial arts, the more diligent you practice, the more skilled you are, and the greater the power.
If it is left unused for a long time, even the best magic weapon will be covered with a layer of dust.
Of course, this is also related to the practice of Xu Jun.
If he practiced the sword-drawing technique, it would be different.
According to legend, there are people with great perseverance who have sealed their natal flying swords since they practiced qi. If they fight with others, they use other spells, talismans, etc.
But the natal flying sword has been sealed in the dantian.
Until this person reached the peak of the Golden Core and was about to reach the Nascent Soul. When he was about to be exhausted and blasted into dust by the thunder, he drew his sword at this moment.
At that moment, the sky and the earth changed color, and even the Nascent Soul Tribulation Thunder was split apart by his sword that had been sealed for more than 200 years.
However, this rumor is just a rumor.
At least, such a person cannot be found in the official history books of the Immortal Alliance.
Besides, from practicing Qi to the peak of the Golden Core...
For such a long time, he has not used his natal flying sword.
Xu Jun doesn't know whether others can do it, but he certainly can't stand it.
Therefore, occasionally using the natal flying sword and letting it move around is also beneficial to physical and mental health.
Sure enough, the natal flying sword that escaped into the space body at this moment made a faint buzzing sound, as if it was venting its excitement just now.
Xu Jun had a feeling that if he continued to cultivate like this, perhaps when he was promoted to the Nascent Soul, this natal flying sword would also be promoted to a fourth-level spiritual treasure.
Moreover, this fourth-level spiritual treasure has a high probability of giving birth to spiritual intelligence.
"Boom."
A thunderous sound suddenly sounded in his mind.
Then, Xu Jun "saw" the thunder hammer in the thunder space body in his sea of consciousness.
This thunder hammer is also Xu Jun's natal magic weapon. It felt Xu Jun's love for his natal flying sword, so it made a thunderous sound.
Xu Jun smiled bitterly, and had to use his spiritual thoughts to comfort it, and promised that he would let it take action next time he met an enemy, so that he could calm down the increasingly irritable thunder hammer.
He shook his head slightly, these two guys really competed for each other's favor.
If someone had told him before that the spirits of two magic weapons would quarrel because of competing for favor, he would definitely think that person was a lunatic.
But now it seems that his knowledge is still too little.
It is already a great thing for a person to have such a magic weapon.
But if a person has two at the same time, no, more than two, then...
"Ah..."
Sure enough, Xu Jun sensed a dragon roar in his space body.
Xu Jun's face darkened, forget it, they are all a bunch of masters, I won't serve them anymore.
It seemed that they sensed Xu Jun's anger, so all the sounds disappeared instantly, and there was no trace of them anymore.
Xu Jun snorted secretly, they are all a bunch of cheap skins.
Looking at the fallen monster, Xu Jun moved his wrist, unfolded his space body, and absorbed it.
Although Xu Jun's current wealth and strength, he has no interest in an ordinary foundation-building monster.
However, since this thing is in front of him, there is no need to waste it.
That day, after parting with Sha Zuo Zhenjun, Xu Jun returned to the base camp and received an expected task.
After Sha Zuo Zhenjun obtained the array eye layout map, he immediately locked the location of these array eyes and split hundreds of tasks.
Because the map provided by Xu Jun is more detailed, even the level of the array eye and the difficulty of destruction are marked. Therefore, the tasks issued by Sha Zuo Zhenjun are still relatively reliable.
For example, although some array eyes are third-level arrays, when they are arranged, because they are nodes that connect the overall situation, the array arrangement is extremely advanced.
Even if ordinary array masters come, they can't get in. If they want to destroy it, it's wishful thinking. They will probably accomplish nothing and return empty-handed.
There are not many such high-level arrays, but there are as many as eight.
After seeing the layout diagram, Xu Jun was actually quite impressed.
With eight super array eyes, all the array eyes in the entire Yama Realm can be connected.
It can only be said that this array master who controls the overall situation is definitely not inferior to himself in the attainment of arrays. Moreover, it is likely that he is a little bit higher than himself.
Of course, if compared with the unfathomable Yuhui, it is probably a bit worse.
Otherwise, Yuhui would not be able to detect the location of most array eyes.
Once you encounter such a high-level array, sending ordinary cultivators and low-level array masters over is deliberately embarrassing.
Therefore, the task Xu Jun received was to destroy these eight special array eyes.
When he just received the task, Xu Jun was still a little confused.
It's not that the difficulty of destroying these array eyes exceeds his ability, but because Xu Jun can't think of the reason why Sha Zuo Zhenjun did this.
You know, these eight special array eyes are the array eyes that run through the whole situation.
Once destroyed, it can be said that the invasion of the abyss demon worm can only be a fantasy.
Then, the amount of merits obtained after the destruction...
Xu Jun shook his head. He really couldn't be sure what the intention of Sha Zuo Zhenjun was.
Could it be that he wanted to give me merits?
However, after discovering the Abyss Demon Lord and handing over the array map, Xu Jun's merits must be the first, and no one can take it away.
However, after receiving the task, Xu Jun thought again and again and still set off.
No matter what Sha Zuo Zhenjun was thinking about, he didn't want to give up the merits that were delivered to his door.
So, today he came to this jungle.
If he hadn't got the layout map, Xu Jun would never have thought that in this place full of natural scenery, there was actually a super array eye hidden.
Most of the array eyes do not have special concealment methods, and can be easily found by people. Then, according to the difficulty, the immortal alliance monks will destroy them.
As long as they are successfully destroyed, the possibility of the invasion of the abyss demon worm will be reduced by one point.
However, the eight overall super array eyes are different.
This is definitely a place that the abyss clan must protect.
Sure enough, just as Xu Jun flashed his figure and quickly moved towards that area.
A strange light suddenly shot out from a remote corner and came to Xu Jun's forehead at a speed faster than lightning.
"Ding."
After a crisp sound, Xu Jun's face sank.
Someone suddenly shot a cold arrow and concealed his perception.
Although he did not carefully sense everything, it was unexpected that this guy could hide so well.
Released his spiritual sense, Xu Jun immediately locked a... demon clan?
This is a demon clan, an abyss ghost clan.
The demon clan is a general term, and the abyss ghost cultivator is just one of them.
However, what does it mean to see a ghost cultivator from the Abyss in this place? That is worth discussing.
It can be seen that the Abyss has indeed concealed many demon cultivators from the Yama Realm this time.
"Swoosh..."
A strange and sharp sound broke through the air. This sound was actually very subtle. If Xu Jun had not discovered the existence of this ghost cultivator in advance, he might not have been able to identify it.
But at this moment, of course, he would not care.
With a flick of his hand, a sword energy broke through the air and instantly broke the ghost cultivator's attack.
"Sword cultivator?" The ghost cultivator screamed.
It originally thought that its attack this time would definitely be a sure thing, but it did not expect that it was easily resolved by the human in front of it.
