Chapter 111: Netherworld Tomb
The visitors were two men and one woman. Judging from their attire, they seemed to be disciples of Qianyuan Sect and Yushou Mountain. The two men were in the middle stage of foundation building and the woman was in the early stage of cultivation.
At this time, the three of them looked at the evil-filled black cloud in the distance, with solemn expressions on their faces.
"Fellow Daoist Li, this place is filled with ghosts. Could it be the ghost tomb made by Guang Lingzi who killed demons in ancient times?"
A man in the middle stage of foundation building in Yushou Mountain looked as if he was facing a powerful enemy, his expression full of vigilance.
"My master once said that during the ancient war between good and evil, the demons tried to invade the cave of Guanglingzi. In the end, they were killed one by one by Guanglingzi and their bones were buried here. After that, the earth sank, and the bones of these demonic cultivators were also circled. Imprisoned here, unable to be reincarnated for tens of thousands of years, he has now turned into a ghost cultivator, extremely ferocious, and has even reached the Shura level of ghost cultivator. He has the strength of the late stage of foundation building and can cast spells against the enemy. "
The monk surnamed Li from the Qianyuan Sect next to him turned a little pale when he heard this, but then he shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, there is no need to panic. I have also heard what Gui Xiuyi said, but it was just after some people died. The resentment formed is not as high as that of Foundation Establishment. As for the Shura in the later stage of Foundation Establishment, it is even rarer. Even if we really encounter him, are we afraid that we can't handle it with the strength of you and me?"
After a pause, he continued: "Since the revered master mentioned the invasion of demons to Brother Lu, did the revered master tell Brother Lu that there is a treasure hall behind the Netherworld Ghost Tomb, where many disciples of Guanglingzi collected magic treasures? place?"
After hearing what he said, the man surnamed Lu from Yushou Mountain calmed down a little, nodded, and said: "Of course Lu knows about that treasure palace. You and I have reached an agreement before, so we must support each other along the way. It’s just that this ghost grave is an evil place after all. When we travel through it later, we need to be careful to avoid capsizing in the gutter. "
"This is natural." The monk surnamed Li said.
After finishing his words, the man surnamed Lu from the Beast Controlling Mountain turned his head to the female fellow disciple beside him and said: "Ghost cultivators have always used evil techniques to confuse people's hearts. Junior sister's cultivation is still in the early stage of foundation building. When she broke into the ghost tomb of the underworld, Just stay with my brother and don’t wander around.”
"Yes, senior brother, Yun Xi understands." The woman bowed Yingying.
This woman is petite, and although she is not stunningly beautiful, she is also slim, delicate and handsome, especially her beautiful autumn eyes. Ye Chunyang, who is hiding underground and observing in secret, can't help but think of Princess Xuanyang of her daughter's country.
When we first met at that time, Xuanyang was also so irritating.
Moreover, this woman was only sixteen or seventeen years old, but she was already in the early stages of foundation building. Coupled with the protective eyes of the man named Lu, she was probably a person with excellent spiritual roots in the sect.
"Since this place is the Netherworld Ghost Tomb, let them try to break through first, and I will wait for the opportunity to act behind it."
Ye Chunyang thought in his heart that he had only heard rumors about the Netherworld Ghost Tomb, but had never seen it. Under such unclear circumstances, he would naturally not act rashly.
However, he was quite interested in the treasure palace mentioned by the three people. It happened that they were leading the way, so he could feel the situation secretly and save a lot of trouble.
With the plan in mind, Ye Chunyang immediately hid his aura and used the Earth Escape Technique to lead Ye Xiaobao to quietly follow the three of them.
At this time, the three people seemed to have discussed a plan, and each took out their magic weapons and headed towards the Netherworld Ghost Tomb.
In the black clouds, there are bursts of evil spirits, and countless black shadows are rushing and wandering in the clouds like ghosts. From time to time, low ghost roars are heard, making people feel like they are falling into hell.
Following the three of them, Ye Chunyang remained calm but kept his mind alert to prevent any sudden changes.
In the hands of the monk surnamed Li from the Qianyuan Sect, a strange magic weapon like a rhinoceros horn appeared.
This treasure is about two feet long, with a whole body of cyan color and a sharp cold light shining on its sharp corners. I saw him blow it up with a breath of spiritual energy, and the horn magic weapon immediately swelled with green light, rolling towards the black clouds like a wave.
At the same time, the man named Lu from Yushou Mountain threw out a spirit beast bag from his waist, and a strange insect crawling with tentacles emerged from it. It looked like a centipede, but had an anticlimax and a snake's tail. It was extremely weird.
However, although this beast had an unattractive appearance, after it appeared, it swallowed a lot of black clouds in one gulp and carved a path through the ghost grave.
It was also because of this that Ye Chunyang saw clearly that under the black mist, there were human-shaped tombs, which seemed to be transformed by people, and their heads had been chopped off.
"I think this is the demon who invaded Guangling Cave in ancient times. His death was so hideous, no wonder he turned into a ghost cultivator and gathered here and never dispersed."
Ye Chunyang took a breath. If it were normal, these demons would have died. However, the Guangling Cave has sunk to the bottom of the sea since the ancient war. After their death, their resentful spirits could not spread, so they became this ghost grave. Anyone who enters it will die.
When the three people who broke into the black cloud saw this scene, their hearts beat hard.
The huge ghost aura of the black cloud probably contains tens of thousands of graves here. From this, we can imagine the tragedy of the ancient wars.
But they also knew that this was not the time to sigh. After the man named Lu expelled the demon and swallowed part of the black cloud, the monk named Li from the Qianyuan Sect once again sacrificed the rhinoceros horn magic weapon and passed through the black cloud first.
Less than three meters forward, his expression suddenly changed.
There was a low roar that tore the eardrums, and the black clouds that had just been swallowed up by the spiritual pet of the man named Lu quickly gathered again.
Immediately afterwards, seven or eight phantoms of ghost cultivators appeared in front of the three people. They looked like giants, holding stems in their hands, and their eyes were as red as blood, and they instantly surrounded the three people.
The expressions of the three people changed drastically.
Judging from their auras alone, these three ghost cultivators were probably all at the foundation-building stage, and they were overwhelmingly outnumbered, making the three of them feel troubled.
"Brother Lu, you and I will break through together, and Junior Sister Yunxi will take the opportunity to pass through this place."
The cultivator surnamed Li was also a decisive person. After sending a message to the man surnamed Lu, he quickly raised the rhinoceros horn magic weapon to the sky, emitting bursts of green rainbows, like the sound of a cow mooing, and shook the earth three times.
The man surnamed Lu also knew that time was running out, so he immediately raised a talisman, emitting a fierce flame, and slapped it on a ghost cultivator behind him.
It is said that ghost cultivators are afraid of fire, and the "fire talisman" of the cultivator surnamed Lu is specifically designed to suppress their ghost power.
But the next scene surprised him.
When the "fire talisman" fell on the ghost cultivator, the flames were like a mud cow in the sea, and could not stir up any waves.
The cultivator surnamed Lu was shocked.
Just as he was about to be surprised, the tall body of the ghost cultivator attacked by the talisman suddenly trembled, and a shrill roar of anger came out of his mouth, and a wheel-like axe chopped down from the sky.
The face of the cultivator surnamed Lu changed wildly.
The Beast Taming Mountain mainly practices the art of exorcising demons, and is not good at close combat, so danger is everywhere.
But the monk surnamed Lu did not panic. He sacrificed a copper bell-shaped magic weapon and shook it gently. The strange insect that looked like a centipede beside him suddenly swelled up like a mutation, and shot out sharp light arrows from its mouth.
With a snort, the ghost cultivator who came to kill him trembled, and his chest was pierced by the light arrow, turning into a shadow and dispersing in the void.
The monk surnamed Lu breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could let go of his heart, the shadow that had just dissipated condensed again and turned into a new ghost cultivator.
At the same time, the same scene was playing out in front of the monk surnamed Li from the Qianyuan Sect.
Relying on the rhino horn magic weapon, he instantly killed three or four ghost cultivators in the early stage of foundation building. However, unexpectedly, these ghost cultivators were only formed by resentment and had no entity. Even if their bodies were destroyed, they could be reshaped, as if they could never be killed.
Seeing this scene, Ye Chunyang was also extremely surprised. He never expected that the ghost cultivators in the Netherworld Ghost Tomb would be so evil. So he couldn't show up, otherwise being entangled by these ghosts would be a big trouble.
"I didn't expect these ghost cultivators to be so difficult. If we consume them here, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave this place until the day we die."
The man surnamed Lu looked very solemn.
The cultivator surnamed Li from Qianyuan Sect also took a step back, not daring to confront the ghost cultivators rashly. "These ghost cultivators are invulnerable to water and fire. To deal with them, we must have some special means."
Ghost Qi is different from spiritual Qi. Spiritual Qi is the pure Qi between heaven and earth, while ghost Qi is the darkest, filthy, and evil breath in the world. The longer they stay here, the more disadvantageous it will be for them. Even the spiritual Qi in their bodies may be assimilated by ghost Qi, turning them into puppets that only know how to attack like these ghost cultivators.
Just when the two were struggling to find a solution, a strange "squeak" sound suddenly came from behind them.
Looking back, the girl named "Yun Xi" was looking at her spirit beast bag in confusion, and then a snow-white little beast crawled out.
This beast had smooth fur, like a fox but not a fox, like a marten but not a marten, and its deep blue eyes seemed to have lightning flowing, which was both cute and exuding a strong sense of danger.
"What is this?" The two looked at the snow-white little beast in confusion.
The girl was also full of surprise. Before she could answer, the little beast suddenly jumped into the void, with sharp rays of light bursting out of its eyes, and its body emitted a dazzling blue light.
Including Ye Chunyang, everyone was shocked by the next scene.
The snow-white little beast shuttled and jumped in the black cloud, and then there was a sudden thunder in the sky, and the blue lightning tore through the black cloud. The ghost cultivators around him screamed fiercely, and green smoke came out as if they were burned, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, unable to condense into shape again.
Not only was the cultivator surnamed Li from Qianyuan Sect surprised, but even the senior brother surnamed Lu was also surprised by the girl's pet. He had been with his junior sister for many years, but he had never seen this strange snow-white beast.
The girl was also stunned as she watched the black clouds in front of her being split apart by thunder in an instant, her face full of surprise.
At this time, the snow-white beast had already jumped back into her arms, and its little head was rubbing against her full chest affectionately.
"Junior sister, when did you raise such a pet that can summon thunder?" The man surnamed Lu asked in surprise.
The girl shook her head blankly: "I don't know either. I met this beast during one of my training. I raised it because I liked it, but I haven't seen any special power from it for many years. I didn't expect it to drive away the ghost cultivator today."
The man surnamed Lu looked at the beast carefully, his face thoughtful.
After a while, he frowned and said, "Evil ghosts are most afraid of thunder and lightning. This beast can draw the nine-sky cloud thunder to kill ghost cultivators. If my guess is correct, this beast should be the ancient beast 'Thunder Spirit Marten'."
