Chapter 1251 A battle of wits and courage
At this time, the Fire Demon had already arrived behind Xiao Lin, stretched out his right hand, turned into a big flaming hand, and grabbed Xiao Lin in the air.
Seeing that he could not escape, Xiao Lin stopped immediately, but a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Bang"
When the water net and the big flame hand touched Xiao Lin's body, they suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The water demon couldn't help but let out an exclamation. At the same time, he turned his head suddenly and looked at the eight apertures. His pretty face became extremely ugly.
"The golden cicada escaped from its shell?" The fire demon apparently figured out the reason and came to the water demon.
"This kid seems to have used some mysterious hidden power to be able to avoid our detection, and he was also able to release clones to divert our attention."
"It's not simple. The clone he released was even hidden from you and me. Have you ever seen which teleportation array he entered?"
Shui Sha shook his head and sighed: "I was diverted just now, but when I realized something was wrong, it had already entered the teleportation array, and it was obvious that it had carefully considered and left no trace."
"Hmph, he thinks that because of this, we won't be able to enter the Heavenly Palace?" After the fire demon finished speaking, he looked at the Void Refining monks.
The Void Refining cultivators were frightened by what he saw. Just as they were thinking about how to deal with it, the Fire Fiend suddenly took action, and in a flash, flames filled the sky.
The water demon also cooperated tacitly and directed the previous water network to block the returning teleportation array.
"Why did the two seniors attack me?"
"Have we not offended the two seniors?"
"Senior, spare your life. We are willing to give up and enter the next level, but we beg for mercy."
Several people were shocked when they saw the fire and water demons taking action, but soon they were surrounded by flames. They could only use their magic powers and control their magic weapons to block the power of the blazing flames, and at the same time begged bitterly.
Huo Sha had a sneer on his face. He had no intention of killing these six people, but wanted to force them into the Bagua Teleportation to find a safe passage.
So he said with a gloomy face: "You don't have to worry. My husband and I are not murderous people, so they won't do anything to you. It's just that we have something to do. How many people do we need help with?"
When the six of them heard this, they all cursed in their hearts. They had also heard about the Water and Fire Demons. Although they were high-level spiritual monks, they behaved perversely and ruthlessly. Anyone who offended the couple would basically not be cured. end.
But the six people dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out. They all said that they would go all out as long as they were within their ability.
Hearing this, Huo Sha's face showed some satisfaction: "Let go of your protection and let me place restrictions on you, and then each choose a teleportation circle and enter it. In this way, you still have some chance of survival. Otherwise, I don’t mind erasing all of you here.”
The six people all showed horrified expressions after hearing this. Only now did they understand the intention of the fire demon, who actually planned to use them as test subjects to find a safe passage.
They are not fools. Seven of them will definitely lead to a desperate situation in this Eight Diagrams Teleportation Aperture, and there are only six of them. If they do what the Fire Demon says, the probability of survival is probably not more than 10%.
And if they don't follow the instructions, then the chance of survival will directly become zero. These choices really make the six people feel a little desperate.
"Senior, for us, this is tantamount to committing suicide. Please forgive us, senior." A lean old man in his fifties begged for mercy.
Upon hearing this, the fire demon's face suddenly became filled with murderous intent, and he said angrily: "If you don't agree, you will die now. After your disciples die, I can still use secret techniques to drive your bodies and verify the correct path."
"Senior, wait a minute." At this time, a gentle female voice sounded.
The Fire Demon was about to take action when he heard this and immediately stopped, looked at the woman and said, "Hey, I don't have much patience. You're not going to beg for mercy, right?"
Hearing this, the woman shook her head and said softly: "Senior has misunderstood. Junior has a way to find the correct path without senior taking action."
"Oh? Come on, tell me. If you lie to me, I won't mind cramping your soul, refining your soul, and torturing you to death."
Upon hearing this, the woman's pretty face flashed pale, and she said calmly: "This junior is from the Jiuyu Hualing Sect, and has raised several spiritual pets. I am willing to use the spiritual pets to find a safe passage for my senior. I only ask that my senior can be freed." Live our lives.”
Hearing this, Huo Sha was stunned for a moment, then looked at the woman with interest, and asked: "Nine Imperial Spirit Transformation Sect? This is one of the ten major sects in the Northern Sky Territory, and among our Spirit Clan, it is also the most responsible sect. It is famous that the leader of Jiuyu Hualing Sect once had a relationship with me, but is what you, a junior, said is true? If you are deceiving me, huh? "
"Juniors definitely don't dare to deceive seniors." The woman hurriedly bowed and said.
When the Water Demon on the side heard this, he couldn't help but give the Fire Demon a roll of his eyes, which made the Fire Demon look a little embarrassed on his face.
Jiuyu Hualing Sect is a super sect in the Northern Territory. Although there are no Mahayana monks in the sect, several Supreme Elders are all top-level monks in the Tribulation Stage.
The master of Jiuyu Hualing Sect is a late-stage integration monk. Regardless of his realm or status, he cannot be compared to casual cultivators like Huo Sha.
What I said before was just to put gold on my face.
The woman naturally knew it well, but she didn't dare to question it. The reason why she moved out of the master's school was just to make Huo Sha have some scruples and not to kill her easily.
The Fire Fiend waved his sleeves and the flames surrounding the six people immediately dissipated without a trace.
The woman walked forward slowly and came to the Bagua portal. Her white hands gently patted the beast ring around her waist. As the light flashed, eight strange spiritual pets appeared in front of everyone.
These eight spiritual pets have different shapes and belong to different categories. One of them, a lion covered with golden scales, is extremely tall and majestic, and the aura on his body has actually reached the level of a monk in the early stage of becoming a god.
The remaining seven spiritual pets are much weaker, and the strongest one is only equivalent to the early stage of the Nascent Soul cultivator.
The woman did not command eight spiritual pets to enter the portal at the same time. Instead, she started from weak to strong, first driving a fox-like spiritual pet towards a circle of light.
The spiritual pet seemed to sense the danger and looked reluctant. However, after the woman's face became gloomy, it plunged into the circle of light.
Just a moment later, the woman's pretty face changed, and then she drove the next spiritual pet towards the aperture...
...
As the stars turned, Xiao Lin felt his eyes light up. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was in a paradise. Looking around, the mountains were beautiful, white clouds were flying, and exotic flowers and plants were blooming in the mountains and forests.
And on the high mountain in the distance, there was a pure white waterfall flying down from the top of the mountain. Xiao Lin could hear the sound even from a very distance away.
Is that the Heavenly Palace?
Xiao Lin saw at a glance that a majestic palace stood among the mountains in the distance. The palace was silver-gray in color, calm and solemn, and exuded an air of simplicity.
"That should be the Heavenly Palace." Xiao Lin thought to himself.
After a slight hesitation, Xiao Lin flew towards the palace. The effect of the Ghost Hidden Pill was still there, and Master Jinzhu and the monk named Jiang were probably in the palace.
If he rushes in rashly, the two people who know that he has the remaining map of the Heavenly Palace on his body will definitely not let him go.
Xiao Lin hid his figure and shuttled through the mountains and forests. After half an hour, he arrived in front of the palace.
Sure enough, the palace door had been opened, and there was a bit of undisguised fierceness inside. Xiao Lin walked gently into the palace door, and at a glance he saw several people standing deep in the hall, and at the end of the hall, On top of a huge mural, two people were sitting cross-legged.
It was Master Jinzhu and the monk named Jiang.
Xiao Lin secretly thought, "Sure enough," these two people had obviously figured out the secrets of the Five Palaces. They were unable to open the door to the real Heavenly Palace because they did not have the corresponding residual map in their hands.
Xiao Lin was also in trouble. He knew how to open the door to the Heavenly Palace, but Master Jinzhu and the monk surnamed Jiang were obviously waiting for his arrival.
It is almost impossible for me to silently open the portal of the Heavenly Palace and enter it.
Unless Xiao Lin showed up on his own, offered up the broken map, and opened the Heavenly Palace, the two of them could let him go, and Xiao Lin was not willing to do so.
Moreover, in Xiao Lin's view, the two demons of water and fire will probably enter this place soon. When the four major fusions gather, he wants to quietly enter the heavenly palace and take advantage of all the benefits. I'm afraid it is just a fantasy.
Xiao Lin's mind was spinning and he was thinking hard about how to deal with it.
Xiao Lin thought about the clone ghost pill again, and pondered whether to create a clone again, lure Master Jinzhu and the monk surnamed Jiang away, and then take the opportunity to open the portal to the heavenly palace.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Lin felt that this method was not safe. First of all, even if the clone appeared, it would be difficult to lure the two away. After all, with the strength of Master Jinzhu and the monk named Jiang, they might be able to find the clone in an instant. Not your true self.
In addition, it will take some time to open the restriction yourself, and this time is enough for the two of them to return.
Moreover, he had already used this method once on the Water and Fire Demons. When the two of them arrived later, they would naturally be able to see through his plot at a glance.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Xiao Lin's mind. There was no air restriction in the secret realm of the outer palace, and an idea immediately emerged.
After confirming several times, Xiao Lin slowly exited the hall.
After exiting the main hall, Xiao Lin flew towards the distant mountains. A moment later, Xiao Lin was already hundreds of miles away. At the top of a mountain peak, Xiao Lin stopped and revealed his figure.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lin took out a bunch of formation flag formation disks and began to arrange formations around the top of the mountain.
For the Fusion Realm monks, the formation flag formation plate refined by Xiao Lin, even if the formation is arranged to surround them, is impossible and will be broken almost instantly.
But Xiao Lin didn't plan to set up one, but took out almost all the formation flags and formation disks on his body.
Among them are several formations that he specially refined to protect his cave. Such formations focus on defense and trapping enemies. Even a Fusion Realm monk would need some time to break through.
What's more, Xiao Lin has at least a dozen similar formations.
And in order to increase the power of the formation, Xiao Lin even directly took out hundreds of top-grade spiritual stones and thousands of high-grade spiritual stones to provide strength support for the formation.
Even though Xiao Lin had just made a fortune and took out so many spiritual stones at once, he felt a little distressed.
It took Xiao Lin a short while to complete the arrangement of the formations, and Xiao Lin did not deliberately conceal them. The fluctuations in spiritual power of these formations could be seen at a glance.
Xiao Lin wanted this effect. For the Fusion Realm monks, any concealment and protection of the formation would be just a cover-up, which would arouse the suspicion of several old Fusion monsters.
Instead of doing this, it is better to carry out the conspiracy openly, and the success rate may be higher.
Moreover, Xiao Lin also deliberately slowed down the formation formation. His purpose was to make several old Fusion Realm monsters anxious and restless, so that after discovering his traces, they would pursue him without hesitation. Come.
After making preparations, Xiao Lin recalled the details one by one, and suddenly he thought of another loophole.
The two evil spirits of water and fire have been deceived once by their own tricks. This time they will try their old trick again. They may not be fooled. If one person is left to wait in the hall, they will eventually fail.
After thinking hard, the solemnity on Xiao Lin's face gradually dissipated, and he also had concerns in his heart.
Within the main hall.
Master Jinzhu and the monk surnamed Jiang are sitting cross-legged in front of the mural, closing their eyes and concentrating. There are several monks in the Void Refining Realm scattered in the corners of the hall, keeping silent and not daring to take a breath.
They and even the temperament and moodiness of these old monsters in the Fusion Realm may not be targeted unless they are directly offended. But if their interests are involved or someone offends them, then they will be merciless. Take action.
As for the Void Refining Realm monks, facing the Fusion Realm monks, it is almost a one-sided situation, and it is difficult to escape even if they want to.
"Xiu Xiu" Suddenly two spiritual lights, one red and one green, shot into the hall from outside the hall, and shot directly towards the depths of the hall.
Master Jinzhu and monk surnamed Jiang opened their eyes almost at the same time.
"Haha, the two fellow Taoists entered here one step ahead of our couple. It seems that both of them have understood the real secrets of the five fragmentary pictures?" When the aura dissipated, two short figures were revealed, standing impressively. It is the twin evil spirits of water and fire.
"Don't you also know the truth? It's just that Xiao Xiao's whereabouts are unknown now, and the fragmentary picture of the Heavenly Palace is in his hands." Master Jinzhu said.
"Hmph" Hearing this, Huo Sha snorted angrily, and then said: "The boy has already come in, didn't you two notice it?"
The two demons of water and fire were teased by Xiao Lin. Naturally, such embarrassing things would not be mentioned.
"Oh?" Master Jinzhu showed a surprised expression and frowned slightly.
"Since he has entered the secret realm of the outer hall, he must have come here. Could it be that he is hiding quietly?" said the monk surnamed Jiang.
"That kid is very cunning. As long as a few of us are still in the hall, he won't appear. Moreover, he can also use the art of clones to confuse the fake with the real one. You two must be careful and don't be fooled by that kid. "
Master Jinzhu and the monk surnamed Jiang were slightly startled when they heard this.
From Huo Sha's words, they felt that he must have been teased by Xiao Xiaozi, which made him so angry.
"Fellow Huo Sha, you can't even handle a junior in the Void Refining Realm. He's really getting better with time." The monk surnamed Jiang immediately seized the opportunity and took the opportunity to taunt him.
When Huo Sha heard this, his face suddenly turned red. If he hadn't been concerned about the level of the monk surnamed Jiang, Huo Sha would have taken action long ago.
