Chapter 88 The Yellow Bird Is Behind
The Cangwu Mountains are densely forested and the spring breeze is blowing.
When Wu Yi heard footsteps coming from the other side, he took the demon back to the stone tablet world and cast Shadow Escape to add illusion to himself. If others did not look closely, they would think Wu Yi was a piece of rock. Wu Yi also turned his spiritual consciousness into a gossamer and gradually spread it out to sense the breath of these people.
When this group of people came closer, Wu Yi found that they were led by a foundation-building cultivator, followed by a group of Qi-refining disciples, about a dozen in number. These disciples either came here to train or to help the foundation-building cultivator. Wu Yi did not recognize these people, but they had the breath of a Qi gate technique on them. They should be the teaching disciples of several other Taoist temples in Nanjun.
No, there are two foundation-building cultivators. Wu Yi looked closely and found that a foundation-building cultivator was walking at the end, probably to prevent disciples from falling behind in the dense forest.
They obviously did not come here across hundreds of miles like Wu Yi. These two professor-level figures must have brought this group of people here by flying with Qi. If they also had to fly hundreds of miles with such a large group of people, they would not necessarily be much faster than Wu Yi.
Of course, there is another possibility that they traveled by flying boat, but this possibility is very small. Flying boats consume a lot of energy. For foundation-building cultivators, most of the time, as long as they are not traveling far, it is a symbol of status.
Seeing a familiar figure in the team, Wu Yi secretly said: He is here too. Wu Yi saw no one else, but Wang Jia Erlang who taught him a lesson on the way back that day.
It seems that they came from Fengcheng Yiqi Taoist Temple. Wu Yi thought secretly in his heart.
The group stopped not far from Wu Yi. After all, the Yinsha Land was not far ahead, and the breath of the evil ghosts was already very strong. They still had to stop and rest, otherwise they would provoke the evil ghosts and lose their lives in vain.
A foundation-building monk stopped, looked around, and said: "This place is very suitable for setting up the formation, so let's set it up here."
Another foundation-building monk nodded and said: "Okay."
After receiving the master's order, the disciples were very conscious and scattered to drive away wild monsters and beasts, even some monsters that had just learned the way of Taoism.
These disciples were at the lowest level of Qi transformation cultivation, and it was unknown what benefits the two foundation-building monks had given them to make them obey their orders.
Wu Yi's illusion cultivation was still good, especially when combined with the Dao rhyme of the Great Dao of Quietness, it was simply seamless. At least these disciples did not notice that there was a person hiding under their feet even when they walked by Wu Yi.
Wu Yi was also a skilled and courageous person. He had heard that the formation was going to be set up here, but he still did not retreat, because he knew that if he retreated at this time, he would not know why these disciples came here.
After dozens of breaths, the disciples returned in twos and threes. The last disciple who came back saw that everyone else had returned, so he stepped forward and said: "Professor, except for the direction where the evil ghost is, the other three places have been cleaned up."
A foundation-building cultivator nodded and said: "Deploy the formation flags given to you before."
The disciples dispersed, holding a small flag in their hands. After walking half a mile, the disciples stopped and infused spiritual energy into the small flags. The small flags fluttered in the wind and suddenly became much longer. The spiritual light flowed and the precious aura was full.
The disciples continued to infuse spiritual energy and chanted something in their mouths, which seemed to be a spell. It took a little longer to set up the formation, but it didn't take much time. It was set up in just a cup of tea.
The formation flags flowed into the ground like water, and a wonderful spiritual energy wave passed through Wu Yi's body, almost breaking his illusion, but the formation had no master and did not actively target Wu Yi. It just formed a connection with other formation flags in one area.
When the formation was formed, a buzzing sound was emitted, like the flapping wings of a wasp, which was very uncomfortable to hear.
Seeing the formation formed, the two foundation-building monks seemed very satisfied and said to a disciple beside them: "The formation is complete. You only need to lead out the evil ghosts entrenched in the Yinsha land. If the ghosts are pressing, remember to use the magic talisman given to you. The evil ghost is very cunning. If the two of us go, it will entrenched below and will not come out, so you need to go. Don't worry, after the matter is completed, the Dahuandan promised to you will not be less for you."
The monk's words were grim later, and it was clear that he was afraid that some disciples would escape in the face of the battle and delay his important matters.
If the cultivation is low, you must be prepared to be beaten. The disciples responded one after another: "Master, don't worry, we will definitely lead the evil ghosts to the formation."
Wu Yi stopped listening after hearing this, because he couldn't hear anything useful if he listened any more. Besides, he had also vaguely guessed something. Now is the time to fish in troubled waters, and it's time to change the venue.
Wu Yi left quietly. Neither the disciples nor the professors present noticed that Wu Yi had escaped easily.
Wu Yi was going to the Yinsha Land. Not long after he left, a disciple behind him headed for the Yinsha Land. They were restrained and crouched to sneak. However, their methods were just to deceive the low-level disciples. Even those with the same cultivation as them might not be able to deceive them. As a hidden master, Wu Yi naturally disdained them.
He was the first to arrive at a place half a mile away from the Yinsha Land. This was a small, gloomy and cold pond. The area was not large, but the bottom could not be seen at a glance. The pale blue waves and the fallen leaves were spread out. It was unknown how deep it was.
Wu Yi gradually moved forward and stopped half a mile away from the dark pond. He crawled on the ground and performed Shadow Escape as before. Here he could already feel a trace of Yin and cold air pouring into his body, but for Wu Yi, the impact was not great. Instead, he could hone his blood light.
Perhaps the best way is to jump directly into the Youchi. Wu Yi looked at the Youchi that was emitting cold air and thought about it, suppressing the impulse in his heart.
The disciples behind him came up one by one, stopped more than a hundred meters away from the Youchi, and opened the spiritual energy shield to prevent the infiltration of the Yin Sha Qi. Wu Yi could use this to hone his blood light, but they couldn't do this. The spiritual energy would not flow naturally after being eroded by the Yin Sha Qi for a long time.
At this time, the evil ghost under the Youchi had already felt that a group of outsiders had invaded its territory, and sent out dissatisfied warnings, trying to expel them, but for some reason, it didn't show up.
"Brothers and sisters, let's do it." A leader among more than ten disciples said so. His Qi Dao cultivation was comparable to Wu Yi, and they were all perfect in cultivating Qi.
Under his command, the disciples used all their means to beat the quiet Youchi into rolling green waves and splashing waves.
I didn't expect that my tolerance would lead to this result. A group of Qi-refining cultivators dared to infringe on its dignity. The evil ghost was very angry. With a roar, it rushed up from the bottom of the dark pool, bringing up waves and splashing frost. A gust of cold wind blew through the area.
"Brothers and sisters, please retreat first. I will hold it for a while." It was still the leader, who had the demeanor of a leader. The other disciples looked at him gratefully. One disciple said, "Brother Wen, don't wait too long." The one called Brother Wen nodded.
Wu Yi didn't pay attention to the affection between his brothers. His eyes were fixed on the evil ghost flying into the sky. This evil ghost was in the shape of a black tiger, with a dark and evil aura like a deep abyss and ink, and a bloody mouth full of fangs, which was extremely ferocious.
Seeing that the "little bug" who provoked him wanted to leave, the Black Tiger Demon Ghost turned into a whirlwind and wanted to chase him, but the disciple who stayed behind to entangle the Demon Ghost shouted loudly, and the talisman in his hand released a thunderbolt, successfully attracting the Demon Ghost's attention and dragging it.
Although the talisman in Senior Brother Wen's hand can release thunder and lightning, the thunder attribute is indeed a good spell to restrain Yin ghosts, but every time he activates thunder, Senior Brother Wen's face becomes paler, and it is obvious that he can't hold on for long.
After releasing more than ten thunders in a row, Senior Brother Wen was not only sweating profusely, but even the talisman in his hand was broken. The Black Tiger Demon Ghost showed a hint of teasing in his eyes. Although Senior Brother Wen released more than ten thunders, none of them hit the Black Tiger Demon Ghost. The Black Tiger Demon Ghost easily avoided it with its flexible and strange body. The black tiger did not seek a quick victory, but kept pestering Senior Brother Wen, waiting for him to be exhausted and the talisman in his hand to collapse.
Now the black tiger finally got the chance. It used its claws to grab the ground and roared as it rushed towards Senior Brother Wen.
A glimmer of pride flashed across Senior Brother Wen's weak eyes. The evil ghost finally rushed over. He carefully took out a talisman from his sleeve and released another thunderbolt. He didn't expect that he still had the talisman and energy. The black tiger evil ghost was struck by the thunderbolt.
Bursts of green smoke rose into the sky, and the black tiger evil ghost's body flashed with lightning. It howled in pain, and the sound was extremely shrill.
Taking advantage of this gap, Senior Brother Wen withdrew. He knew that this thunderbolt would not cause much harm to the black tiger evil ghost. Besides, his exhausted posture was not fake, otherwise he would not be able to deceive the black tiger evil ghost who had fought all the way up.
When the lightning dissipated, the black tiger evil ghost felt extremely angry and vowed to cut Senior Brother Wen into pieces. He didn't care about the possibility of an ambush, and just followed Senior Brother Wen out of his nest.
Wu Yi did not rush to investigate. Countless shadows flew out of his body. They were the spirit ghosts and evil ghosts in the stone tablet world. Wu Yi wanted to set up the Nine Ghosts Locking Palace Array here. The two foundation-building monks should arrive soon. Wu Yi wanted to be the yellow bird.
The Yin Qi here was thick, and it was a geographical advantage. Otherwise, Wu Yi would not dare to try the Nine Ghosts Locking Palace Array to trap the foundation-building monks. In fact, this was the first time that this formation trapped the foundation-building monks. Wu Yi was not very sure in his heart, but Wu Yi did not ask to be able to trap them for ten days or half a month. He only asked to be trapped for a while, enough for him to go down to the dark pool to investigate what kind of natural treasures were contained in it.
This foundation-building monk and the evil ghost were so concerned, they must not be ordinary things. Wu Yi felt that this risk was worth taking.
After an incense stick, the big formation in the back started, and the black tiger evil ghost roared and roared. He realized that he had been deceived and plotted against, and tried hard to break free, but this was originally used by the foundation-building monks to trap it, how could it be so easy to break free.
After the two foundation-building monks dealt with the black tiger evil ghost, they came together, with the same steps. Obviously, they did not trust each other and did not want to fall behind.
But just when the two were about to sneak into the dark pool, the Nine Ghosts Locking Palace Array was activated. In an instant, there were many ghosts, the sky was dark, and ghosts cried and wolves howled, which was extremely creepy.
The two did not expect this to happen, but they also understood that they were trapped in a formation. They also understood that someone wanted to do something unlucky. They were ashamed, angry, and hateful. They used all means, including magic tools and talismans, and beat the formation to the point of collapse. However, a lot of their magic power fell into the void, which had no effect on the formation foundation. Moreover, there was a constant supply of Yin Qi here, so it should be no problem to hold on for a while.
Wu Yi looked for a while, did not stop, and jumped into the dark pool without even releasing the demon. If the demon took ten days or half a month to break through, he would not have so much time to break through, so he could find a few other places.
The coldness in the dark pool almost froze Wu Yi to death. Fortunately, the blood in his heart was flowing rapidly at this time, dispelling most of the coldness, so Wu Yi was able to continue diving.
After diving for six or seven feet, he still hadn't reached the bottom. This pool was deeper than Wu Yi had imagined, but he could smell a faint fragrance that made him feel calm. The fragrance was accompanied by a bone-chilling chill. Wu Yi gritted his teeth and continued to dive. The chill and water pressure almost crushed Wu Yi.
Finally, he saw the source of the fragrance, a pale blue unknown flower. Wu Yi knew it was a treasure, so he tried to pick it, but when Wu Yi's hand touched the flower, it froze. He couldn't go forward or backward, and was in a dilemma.
The blood flowed rapidly, continuing to dispel the chill for Wu Yi, but even so, it took at least half an hour for Wu Yi's hand to regain a little consciousness.
He picked the flower and threw it into the stone tablet world. The stone tablet world can store items containing yin energy. This flower is full of yin energy, so it can naturally be put in.
Wu Yi hurried back to the ground, but he didn't see that the flower was originally going to wither after being picked, but after entering the stone tablet world, it seemed to sense something and flew towards the leg bone of the monster that Wu Yi had obtained before. The root system was rooted in the gap between the bones. The flower was actually absorbing the Yin Qi in the bone.
Wu Yi quickly returned to the ground and saw that the two foundation-building monks were still trapped. He breathed a sigh of relief and flew for several miles before letting the ghosts leave in batches.
The next time the two foundation-building monks attacked together, they easily broke the formation, but they didn't see a ghost. How could they not know that the man had left? It could be said that they had succeeded, but there was still a trace of luck in their hearts. They all dived into the water, but only saw the roots that Wu Yi had not picked clean, and they couldn't help but roared to the sky.
Hearing Youchi's angry voice, several disciples couldn't help but tremble, but the two foundation-building monks had asked them not to go forward to check no matter what they heard, and to guard the black tiger evil ghost from escaping.
"It should be fine." A disciple said this without even believing himself. The other disciples shook their heads with heavy expressions.
