Chapter 248 Immortal Ban
Xiahou Zhi was not in a hurry, just sitting quietly waiting for everyone's answer.
When he looked at Ye Chunyang, he smiled slightly, as if he was very confident.
After a long while, there were finally some voices in the house. The old man surnamed Wang spoke first: "The news of the Tianmo Ancient Cave was indeed told by Fellow Daoist Xu, and Fellow Daoist is the descendant of the old man Tianmo. It is reasonable for you to go to the three treasures first after entering the mansion. I have no objection."
After speaking, he looked at Zhuge Yu and Ye Chunyang and said, "I wonder what the two fellow Daoists think?"
Zhuge Yu did not answer indifferently.
Ye Chunyang looked at Xiahou Zhi, and he had some thoughts in his mind, but he did not show it on the surface. After a while, he smiled lightly and said, "I have no objection either."
Hearing this, Zhuge Yu's eyes flickered, but he quickly regained his calmness and nodded in agreement.
At this point, even if he had other opinions, it would be useless. However, only he himself knew whether this promise was consistent with his words.
At this time, Xiahou Zhi was overjoyed.
After looking around, he nodded happily and said, "Since everyone has no objection, we can set off immediately. However, the Ancient Demon Cave is located deep in the outer mountain, and there are monsters everywhere, even level 2 monsters. We need to be careful on this trip. In addition, to prevent the news from leaking out, I hope everyone will hand over the sound transmission talisman and swear the inner demon oath before leaving. If you violate this, you will be troubled by the inner demon for the rest of your life and will never be able to advance."
Everyone had no objection to this. Although the inner demon oath was very vicious, as long as the news was not leaked, the oath would naturally not come true. Therefore, after doing everything, they left the attic one after another.
However, thinking that a group of six people would be too ostentatious, everyone discussed leaving the city separately and met up thirty miles away at noon. After reuniting, they headed to the outer mountain together.
This was Ye Chunyang's first long journey since he came to the North Pulse. He flew in the air with a magic weapon and looked down from afar.
There were sacred mountains and treasures everywhere, with towns for ordinary people and sects for cultivating immortals. The terrain was several times wider than that in the northwest.
After flying for three days and three nights, the group crossed the plains and saw a series of mountains in front of them, which stretched across the center of the entire territory like a dragon vein. Even from a distance, they could still feel the strong ancient atmosphere.
This wonder proved that they had crossed the inner mountains and reached the outer mountains.
After coming to the northern vein, Ye Chunyang had heard a lot of rumors about the outer mountains.
It is said that thousands of years ago, this place was not as rampant as it is now, but a prosperous area with many sects. However, a great war swept through all sects, and many great men fell one after another. Beast tides often appeared here. After losing the strong to resist, many sects for cultivating immortals had to move to the inner mountains and expand their territory again.
Although that battle severely damaged the vitality of each sect, many sects continued their hatred and continued to fight and fight. This caused the chaos in the North Pulse to last for thousands of years.
"The outer mountain is the world of monsters and demons. Once you enter this place, you must be careful to avoid alarming them."
After landing on a mountain, Xiahou Zhi took out a compass to identify the direction and reminded everyone.
The danger of the outer mountain has long been deeply rooted in people's minds. Everyone nodded naturally after hearing the voice. The old man surnamed Wang also glanced at the compass and then asked: "Now that we have entered the outer mountain, I wonder how long it will take to reach the ancient demon cave?"
The old man asked what everyone wanted to ask, so they all looked at this "Golden Dragon Wanderer".
"Don't worry, fellow Taoists, let me argue."
Xiahou Zhi held the compass in one hand and the golden dragon pen in the other, and actually copied the appearance of the Golden Dragon Wanderer to the core.
Ye Chunyang glanced at this person and remained alert. Although Xiahou Zhi claimed to be the master of Jinlong Sanren, his true origins needed to be investigated. He must have a big secret hidden in him, so he must be on guard.
Moreover, since this person had been to the Tianmo Ancient Cave, he still needed a compass to identify the direction, which was a bit confusing.
What made Ye Chunyang even more shocked was that no matter how he turned the compass in his hand, it would not point to the south. Such a strange compass was really weird.
Seeing this, Zhuge Yu and others also frowned secretly, and each of them had doubts in their hearts, but they all tacitly did not speak.
At this moment, the compass needle turned several times and suddenly settled, pointing to a certain direction in the east.
Xiahou Zhi was delighted to see this, and drove the magic weapon into the air without saying a word.
Everyone ignored it and hurried to follow.
About half an hour later, the group crossed several mountains again. At this time, Xiahou Zhi paused and looked at the compass in his hand intently.
Seeing this, everyone stopped and lined up in the air.
At this time, the compass in Xiahou Zhi's hand was spinning rapidly. The latter was surprised and quickly cast a few spells, but there was no effect.
Xiahou Zhi showed a look of surprise, and then seemed to understand something. He suddenly lowered his head and looked down, and his face couldn't help but show joy: "This is it!"
He pointed to the front and said: "Look, everyone, the big mountain in front is the ancient demon cave! The Nine-Turn Fantasy Immortal Forbidden has a magnetic field, so the compass has this abnormality."
Including Ye Chunyang, everyone looked surprised. Xiahou Zhi pointed to a mother-child peak, with several low mountains under the towering stone mountain in the middle, but such a mountain and water place is common, and there is no spiritual energy here, and it doesn't look like a cave for cultivators at all.
Everyone was suspicious for a while.
As if he had expected everyone to have such expressions, Xiahou Zhi said calmly: "Everyone, cast a spell to attack this mountain and see what happens?"
This made everyone more confused, but after looking at each other, they each made hand gestures and chanted spells, raising their magic weapons.
Most of the people present were masters in the late stage of foundation building. Once the magic weapon was used, the sky suddenly became bright and dazzling. In an instant, it was like a rainbow stream, hitting the main peak in the middle.
With a loud bang, the mother peak was shaken, and countless rubble rolled down from the top of the mountain. Several main peaks around it also kept roaring, as if they could not withstand the joint attack of everyone and were about to collapse.
How could an ordinary mountain withstand the magic of several foundation building masters.
Everyone was secretly disappointed, and all their eyes turned to Xiahou Zhi, ready to question him.
Xiahou Zhi seemed to be oblivious to the questioning eyes of the crowd, half-squinting his eyes and staring at the main peak in the middle, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
"Friend Xu, there is nothing strange about this place. Are you sure that the ancient demon cave is really here?" The old man surnamed Wang muttered dissatisfiedly and cast a spell to recall the magic weapon.
But the situation suddenly changed at this time.
After shaking for a few times, the main peak in the middle suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light, and the rolling rocks rolled back one by one. The entire mother and child peaks instantly returned to their original state, without any trace of being attacked.
Everyone's expression suddenly changed, and they hurriedly recalled the magic weapons to find out what was going on. However, although everyone acted quickly, they were still half a beat late.
A light arc suddenly appeared in the mountain, and an amazing undercurrent of spiritual energy attacked from it. Before everyone could prepare, the magic weapons were rolled in one by one, and then suddenly shook, and all of them were ejected.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
The magic weapons that originally had the same thoughts as everyone were out of control, but instead became their life-threatening weapons, and their power was no weaker than their own spells against the enemy.
Everyone's face changed wildly, and they hurriedly used their best skills, and cast various spells on them.
Although they didn't know why the magic weapons suddenly lost control, after all, these magic weapons had their spiritual imprints. After several busy times, they finally recalled the magic weapons.
But even so, everyone was still unsure, and they looked at the main peak with great fear.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, what kind of weirdness is there in this place? Why did the magic weapon fight back against us after it was sacrificed?"
Zhuge Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness, staring at "Golden Dragon Wanderer" and said grimly.
Seeing everyone so embarrassed, Xiahou Zhi did not show any surprise. Obviously, all this was already expected by him.
He did not answer Zhuge Yu's question, but drove the sword forward a few steps, then took out a silver-white talisman from his arms, chanted something in the air, and finally pointed with two fingers and shouted "Go".
Everyone was full of surprise at Xiahou Zhi's move.
At this moment, the silver-white talisman turned into a stream of light and rushed into the top of the main peak. Then everyone saw an incredible picture. After the surrounding sub-peaks trembled a few times, they actually moved one after another, and the speed was getting faster and faster, rotating around the main peak.
Everyone only felt a buzzing sound in their ears. Such a scene of mountain movement was simply unprecedented.
In an instant, the area within a hundred miles was in a state of shaking.
At the same time, a roar sounded in the air.
I saw a thousand-foot-high rosy glow projected from the main peak, and the silver-white light was so dazzling that people could not open their eyes. After calming down, I saw a huge light curtain coming from far to near, surrounding the entire sub-peak.
"Did you see this? This is the Nine-Turn Magic Immortal Forbidden Formation. This formation is mainly psychedelic, and another space is set up in the forbidden method. The Ancient Demon Cave is hidden in it. If you can sense this space, the treasure of the cave will be at your fingertips."
Xiahou Zhi looked into the light curtain from a distance, and his eyes could not hide his excitement.
"This is the Nine-Turn Magic Immortal Forbidden Formation!" Everyone was shocked.
Ye Chunyang looked forward. At this time, the rotation speed of the surrounding sub-peaks had accelerated, and it was even blurred. The main peak in the middle also became silver-white, making it impossible to look directly at it.
With a thought in his mind, he asked, "So, everything we see now is an illusion?"
"You can say so, but it's not completely correct."
Xiahou Zhi showed mystery and said something that made people confused.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, since you are the descendant of the old man of the Heart Demon, you might as well tell us how much you know about the Nine-Turn Fantasy Immortal Prohibition, so that we won't rush in and trigger the Death Gate without knowing it."
Zhuge Yu frowned and asked, the scene just now made them fear this place. Once the ancient spiritual formation like the Nine-Turn Fantasy Immortal Prohibition was triggered, no one in their group would be spared.
"Before coming here, I told you fellow Taoists that there are many forbidden death gates in the Nine-turn Fantasy Immortal, but only one is the life gate, and that life gate is the entrance to the cave. Only people with extraordinary spiritual sense can have the opportunity to detect it. Why don't you try to sense it with spiritual sense?"
If there is one person who wants to enter the Heavenly Demon Ancient Cave the most, it must be Xiahou Zhi himself, so he did not hide what he knew about this place. After all, this is the purpose of asking Jinlong Sanren to gather these people with powerful spiritual sense.
