Chapter 439 Desperate Situation

"Dead end!"

Chi Xuan froze on the spot, all kinds of thoughts came to his mind. He looked at Old Long's Incense God in shock, and then looked at Old Monster Jing who had just told him to leave.

He didn't know who to trust.

As a great master, Chi Xuan's state of mind was undoubtedly stable, but at this moment he was panicked.

He turned his gaze to look at the red-haired evil ghost with a green face and fangs in the formation.

Among so many people, the only one he could trust was Tu Shanjun.

"Real person..."

A hoarse voice came.

"Don't be anxious." Tu Shanjun comforted.

Immediately, he let go of a hole in the killing formation, allowing Old Dragon's Incense God to get some breathing room, and asked: "Speak clearly! Don't be alarmist here, I won't accept this."

Old Long sighed and then told the reason.

"Excessive absorption of spiritual energy, coupled with the incense Tao Seed absorbing the spiritual energy pouring in from the outside world, the cave should have collapsed long ago."

"So I found a way to supplement it."

“Since you can’t look outside, then look inside.”

"Using dragon's blood to create a large number of inferior embryos. Without the skills, they cannot practice, but the dragon's blood urges them, so they can only squeeze their own vitality to give birth to aura."

"this process……"

"Blight!"

Chi Xuan's eyes widened. The imperial court was squeezing the lives of the people to repair this world that was riddled with holes.

Tu Shanjun interrupted Lao Long without saying anything.

The old dragon continued: "These people's insignificant souls were burned in advance by the Tao tree and drank the dragon's blood. It's okay for them to die here. Once they try to leave with their spiritual energy, they will be destroyed by the Tao tree. After their death, the Tao will disappear and be taken back." A whole body of spiritual energy feeds back into the cave sky.”

No wonder the imperial court is so aware of the deeds of people in this world, because they have long taken out soul threads and burned household registrations for the purpose of mending the sky.

Tushanjun's scarlet eyes trembled slightly.

This creature that was reincarnated in the cave heaven, didn't it mean that he came to the hell where he was slaughtered by others?

Even if you die, you can only leave with that little bit of true spirit, and you can't take anything else with you.

"How dare you!"

Tu Shanjun himself felt that it was inappropriate to even use the emotional elixir obtained from fishing, but this old dragon actually filled the cave with the vitality of the people.

Those true cultivators in the cave who know the truth.

Everyone deserves to be killed!

What they eat is not natural spiritual energy at all, but the vitality of the people.

Tu Shanjun frowned. If he had done this, Wanfa Sect would have sent someone to kill the old dragon long ago.

"Old Long shouldn't be unaware of Wanfa Sect's methods."

"Is it because these people did not die as mortals, but became so-called monks when they were alive..." The thoughts surging in his heart could no longer be asked.

He asked, but Lao Long would not answer honestly.

I have to think about this answer for a long time.

What's more, it's the method that targets Wanfa Sect's laws.

Old Long said it generously, just because he didn't want Monster Jing to benefit from the seal that could protect them from leaving the cave.

Chi Xuan was already stupid.

If he hadn't had a strong Taoist heart, he would have gone crazy on the spot after hearing these words. The golden elixir would have cracked and the jade pillars would have hung down.

A little coolness flowed from the top of his lips. Chi Xuan didn't bother to wipe it away, he just felt dizzy. A wordless terror enveloped him from all directions, clutching him tightly and making him unable to breathe.

A frightening chill penetrated his spine and went straight to the back of his head.

This calculation was too early, and it was too early for them to prevent it in advance.

It may not be serious for ordinary mortals, but it is extremely serious for monks. It's like what was just a harmless ailment in the past has now turned into a serious illness because it was delayed for too long.

That trace of soul was not a big mistake at first, but it was a pity that the old dragon's technique was stained with dragon blood.

As soon as he saw signs of gold crystals being exposed in Chi Xuan, Tu Shanjun's expression changed drastically, and he used the Dingyi Fist to turn into the sound of thunder and send the message: "Keep your heart and keep your will, don't let external demons take advantage of you."

Chi Xuan suddenly woke up and reached out to touch his nose, but he stopped abruptly.

Visualize the sea of ​​consciousness pagoda moving to stabilize the Yin Shen, and the golden elixir above the Dantian is spinning. The clear liquid gold crystal flowing from his nose was re-inhaled into his nasal cavity.

Tushanjun's face was as gloomy as condensed ice.

The entanglement of qi is like thunder running.

He suppressed the anger and chill in his heart, stared straight at Old Monster Jing, cupped his hands and said, "Senior, what do you mean?"

"Senior and I have a half-master relationship. He taught me a lot. He also taught me the true knowledge and insights of cultivation, the golden elixir avenue, and the method of the soul. I am not a fool. I can tell that these things are true."

"I, Mr. Tushan, will avenge my enemies and repay my favors. I will never be stingy. Why do you, senior, do this?"

The underlying anger was not because of being used, but because it was clear that he could be told.

He, Tushanjun, will also try his best to help.

Why must you rely on deception?

Can you feel at ease only if you cheat?

The waves in Old Monster Jing's eyes were suppressed for a moment, and he said calmly: "My disciple, nothing I taught you is false. That's because I need to gain your trust."

"If you can reach such a state as a casual cultivator, why are you still so naive?"

"Innocent?"

Tushanjun doesn’t understand.

He has always been frank in doing things, and will explain everything clearly. Even if he can't explain clearly, everyone has made a decision and the friendship has been settled. Only when dealing with enemies can the ruthless tactics be fully demonstrated.

If you can't be happy with your grudges and follow your true heart, then what's the use of this practice?

Tushanjun was silent for a while.

He raised his head and said: "Join hands, chop down the incense tree, and take out a trace of the soul. Whatever you want, as long as it doesn't harm nature, I will do my best to help you."

Although he didn't say much, he was extremely sincere.

Chi Xuan was moved and his face was filled with tears.

He really didn't want Tushanjun to beg someone for him, or someone who had deceived them.

The mighty Demon King shouldn’t be like this!

That magnanimity was lost in vain.

Chi Xuan gritted his teeth, his pupils trembled slightly, squeezed out a few words through his teeth, and sent a message to Tu Shanjun, as if to defend this great master: "Master..., face... is important."

Tushanjun seemed to turn around, but instead of turning around, he said calmly: "As long as you live, it doesn't matter how many times I lose face."

Zhang Tianbao is really a man of temperament, and even at such a time, he still maintains the dignity of a bird.

How much face is worth, can it be exchanged for his life?

As Tu Shanjun said, it doesn't matter if he can get his life back or lose face. Anyway, he never cares about other people's opinions.

"Senior, have you thought about it?"

"Cut down the incense tree and get back the trace of soul. I can try my best to help senior." Tu Shanjun stood in the killing array and looked at Old Monster Jing next to the coffin.

Shure.

Old Monster Jing grinned and said, "If you think I lied to you, how do you know he didn't lie to you? Do you really think what Nie Long said is true?"

"Is it fake?"

"It's true, but it's not entirely true."

"The Nascent Soul cultivator does not have the strength to depict the great formation that envelopes the cave. Even my true self cannot do it. Otherwise, why do you think I came to the cave and reincarnated and cultivated again, and cut off the spiritual consciousness that was tainted with incense. "

"It's because there are remnant formations left in this cave itself, and the person who took action must at least be powerful."

"Almighty, what kind of strength is that, even my own body ran away in despair, not daring to stay, and not daring to come back to take away the treasures left here."

"The incense tree was planted and the remaining formation was reactivated, binding us all within the cave."

"It's not that we can't go out, it's that we can't go out at all."

Monster Jing sighed sadly.

They were like ordinary moths caught in a spider's web. The more they struggled, the tighter they were caught in the big web. And this big web was still incomplete, a shabby web without an owner.

"If you want to go out intact, there is only one way other than dismantling your body and reincarnating it, and that is to 'seize the body', and then use the life-exchange technique to cover up the secret, leaving behind the body you once used."

"It's a pity that no one has entered the cave with the seal in all these years."

"Did you spread the incense method of Daheishan?"

Tu Shanjun suddenly realized.

Old Monster Jing was stunned. He didn’t expect Tu Shanjun to be so smart. He had already guessed it before he said anything. After thinking about it carefully, he still shook his head and said, “I don’t know where Dahei Mountain is.”

Then he nodded and said: "If there is an incense path in the Xiaohuang Domain, it probably spread from here."

"The way of incense has long since become a rootless duckweed. Without a method that is famous or has a reputation, not only will it fail to be practiced, but it will be turned into a demon by the incense."

The original Dahei Mountain Ghost King over-absorbed incense and was not very well-educated. He was so overwhelmed by the incense that he could not leave Dahei Mountain. Even if he had the key, he could not open this square cave.

Tushanjun is used to putting his seals in the soul flags, and has rarely passed by here for so many years.

That is to say, he had to fight with the King of Heavenly Ghosts and was plotted by the remnants of the spirits and demons. He had no choice but to use his last mana to activate the seal and soul flag to escape, and rushed into the cave by accident.

No wonder the Incense Shinto has not been seen in Xiaolingzhou or the area covered by the big sects. This path has become rootless and needs utensils as a support to practice, and the way forward is cut off when practicing.

Tushanjun didn’t know what happened before the Ghost King of Dahei Mountain was updated. In the past thousands of years, the situation in Dongtian has not changed at all, while the situation in Xiaohuang Realm has changed greatly.

Yangcheng only emerged eight hundred years ago, and now it is entering its twilight years because of Master Yuyan.

It hasn't been long since Wanfa Sect moved in, and the righteous sect and the demonic sect will not live in peace. For these two old monsters, the outside world has already changed.

"I can't get out, but you are different."

Strange Jing glanced at Tu Shanjun, and then looked at Chi Xuan, who was leaning on the Soul Flag in the depths of the formation, and said: "Chi Xuan. Your cultivation is not enough, and Tu Shanjun is willing to trade his life for you, but there is nothing you can do. When you go out, why not give the magic weapon to me."

"How about I find a body for you to take over after I get out of the cave?"

Chi Xuan's expression changed drastically. He certainly knew what Old Monster Jing meant.

The old monster Jing wanted to seize Tushanjun's body and walk out of the cave.

"Chixuan, Lord Tushan is just using you. There is nothing wrong with you exchanging your own life for someone you are using."

At this time, Lao Long showed an expression that was indeed true.

He knew this was what the incense-infested old monster had in mind.

Because he also had the same idea and had already put it into action.

a long time.

The tears in Chi Xuan's eyes flowed down. With a pop, he knelt upright in front of Tu Shanjun: "Although I have not officially become a disciple, you are my mentor."

"Rong... allow me, Zhang Tianbao, to call you..."

"Master!"

"I can't get out of the cave."

"Thank you so much for Master's teaching and help over the years. I, Zhang Tianbao, don't have much ability, but this magic power is still useful. Master, please take it."

As he spoke, he knocked his head three times.

Tu Shanjun reached out and grabbed Chi Xuan's shoulders and lifted him up from the ground.

He said in a deep voice: "Get up!"

Tu Shanjun's face was full of cruelty.

The hoarse voice was like the bass roar of an evil spirit.

"Your master and I are the master of formations."

"It's just a trace of soul. If I eat this cave formation, I have to spit it out completely."

"If you can't spit it out, I'll grab it!"

"Old dragon!"

"You must have captured the monk who came after me. If I can't find that soul, I will steal your chance to get out."

"You'd better find a way to unlock this so-called cave formation, otherwise we'll break up."
