Chapter 394: Fighting the Monster
It seemed to take a long time from the two to the destruction of Taoist Juechen's magic weapon, but it was only a flash of lightning. Seeing that Ye Chunyang's skeleton had not yet made a move, Taoist Juechen couldn't help but urge him.
Ye Chunyang frowned, but didn't answer.
In fact, he was not just watching the battle calmly, but he was also activating the Annihilation Array while offering the Demon Seal. However, he didn't expect that the sealing power of this array would have an impact on the Pixiu, but it was not a big deal at all. Even Taoist Juechen's magic weapon died in just one round.
The strength of the demonized Pixiu was far beyond his imagination.
Ye Chunyang took a deep breath. From this test, he also vaguely saw the power of the Pixiu, and his heart became heavy.
Sure enough, this beast was not the spiritual beast of the Lingxu Sect as Ju Ruhai knew, but the nightmare of this sect.
Moreover, Ye Chunyang felt that this beast was not in its prime, otherwise there must be many masters who could suppress it in the ancient sect of Lingxu Sect. Why did the ancient cultivator seal it at the bottom of Lingquan at the cost of his own life?
While he was thinking secretly, Taoist Juechen and Ju Ruhai were extremely solemn. They had not realized the power of this beast just now, but now they suffered a great loss. With the previous experience, Ju Ruhai did not dare to rashly sacrifice the magic weapon, and could only deal with it with his supernatural powers.
Seeing this, Ye Chunyang suppressed his doubts, activated the magic formula in his hand, and began to drive the Demon Seal.
This beast is indeed powerful, but the purpose of this trip is to subdue it, and he will not give up easily no matter what.
Looking at Ju Ruhai and Taoist Juechen who were dealing with the Pixiu, he used his hands to cast several magic formulas on the Demon Seal, and the seal suddenly rotated rapidly, and ancient runes appeared around it.
The ancient cultivators and the modern cultivators used different methods to sacrifice and refine magic weapons. In order to facilitate the use of treasures, they did not include them in their body training, but only used magic power to drive objects, which was very easy to control. Even if it was damaged, it would not hurt itself. Although the life magic weapon was more spiritual, it was connected to the mind of the caster. Once the magic weapon was damaged, it would also be hurt.
The Demon Seal was originally an ancient treasure. When it was driven by the magic power formed by Ye Chunyang's three techniques, its power was naturally doubled.
With a flick of his finger, the seal made a loud rumbling sound, emitting a thousand-foot treasure light, pressing down on the Pixiu like a heavy mountain.
With the obstruction of the Demon Seal, Ju Ruhai and the other man who were originally trapped in a bitter battle finally got out, and Ju Ruhai's platinum sword was safely retracted into his body.
The pressure dropped in vain, and the Pixiu's body trembled a few times. He looked up at the treasure seal, and a sinister look flashed in his eyes with a demonic aura.
Its dragon head shook, and two horns on its head sprayed several balls of black air, which suddenly grew into a dark cloud with evil spirits, resisting the pressure of the Demon Seal.
As soon as the dark cloud covered, Ye Chunyang was surprised to find that the spiritual energy on the Demon Seal was rapidly weakening, as if it was infected by evil spirits, and there was a tendency to get out of control.
His expression changed slightly, and after a closer look, he immediately realized that the evil spirit on the beast was not only extremely aggressive, but also had the effect of infecting magic weapons. No wonder the Yin Luo Banner of Taoist Juechen died as soon as it was used.
Ye Chunyang narrowed his eyes. He had already lost the golden mace on this trip, and he must not lose the Demon Seal again, otherwise he would be unable to move forward in the Spirit Heaven Realm.
With this in mind, he chanted the spell without thinking much and called back the Demon Seal.
Since the magic weapon could not work, he could only find another way.
Ju Ruhai and the others saw this scene and became alert.
"My two Taoist friends, this beast has some tricks. We can't attack it with magic weapons. We need to restrain it with supernatural powers." Ju Ruhai reminded.
Taoist Juechen had just suffered a big loss, so he naturally learned a lesson. Even though he still had many magic weapons in his hand, he didn't dare to give them up rashly. Without waiting for Ju Ruhai to finish his words, he suddenly slapped the Qiankun bag, and a talisman flew out of it.
This talisman was black and bright, exuding a ghostly aura, but there was no rune at all. After Taoist Juechen sacrificed this talisman, he pinched his fingers and chanted an obscure spell. Then he took a handful of cinnabar and waved it on the talisman. In an instant, the cold wind blew, and the little cinnabar, under the blessing of the talisman light, turned into countless black lights and swam out.
Ye Chunyang's eyes focused and found that the black light turned into ghosts after it came out of the talisman, surrounding the Pixiu and attacking wildly.
Ju Ruhai was also surprised and couldn't help but praise: "I didn't expect that Taoist Juechen had such a magical power of turning beans into soldiers. Ju admires it!"
"Thank you for your praise. I am just a trifle, not worth mentioning." Taoist Juechen smiled modestly, but it was not difficult to see the pride on his face.
This magical power is different from the power of enlightenment of ordinary mana cultivators. Instead, it uses the power of talismans to gather nearby ghosts and make them stronger. There are few rivals in the same level.
Sure enough, surrounded by countless ghosts, the Pixiu was trapped in place and could not move, and the demonic energy on its body was also diluted a lot.
But it was obvious that the Pixiu was completely enraged by this. It roared repeatedly and kept colliding with the ghosts and talisman light restrictions. The brute force of this beast was also beyond imagination. Although the talisman of Taoist Juechen was amazingly powerful, it was still shaken by the impact, as if it would break free at any time.
Ju Ruhai knew something was wrong, so he immediately made hand gestures. He saw clouds and wind rising in the air. After a few thunderous lightnings, a large piece of ice and snow fell vertically, covering the Pixiu's body. Sure enough, the beast lost its movement after struggling for a while, as if it had been frozen by his magic.
Seeing this, Taoist Juechen took back the wordless Yuanlu and prepared to go forward to investigate.
But before he could show his joy, a deafening roar suddenly came, and the black air on the Pixiu's body surged wildly, and the ice and frost around it was rolled into pieces, and then it opened its mouth and sprayed at the three people, and a large black cloud suddenly covered them.
Taoist Master Juechen's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly withdrew and retreated.
However, he was still half a step late. The black air was several times stronger than before. Once it gathered, it was like a raging tide, shocking Taoist Master Juechen to spit blood and fly away.
Ju Ruhai was also shocked. The ice and frost he cast was an extraordinary magical power. Even cultivators of the same level could not break the seal in a short time. The strength of this beast was very strong.
Seeing the black cloud spreading, he didn't have time to think about it, and quickly cast a spell to retreat.
On the other side, Ye Chunyang also hurriedly recited the spell, and after a thunderous sound under his feet, the person disappeared on the spot.
But the black cloud spread very quickly, and it was close to the back in a flash. At the same time, the huge figure of the Pixiu also approached like a flash of flesh. Before the three of them could escape a few steps, the strong spiritual pressure had already covered them from behind.
"Bang, bang, bang" several explosions sounded continuously, and the spiritual energy around Ju Ruhai and Taoist Juechen was rioting. Their bodies were pressed to the ground, and the black cloud wrapped around them again, and it seemed that they were about to swallow them.
Looking back, they saw a bloody mouth appeared behind them, ready to swallow them in one gulp.
The two were horrified, and they didn't want to be buried in the monster's belly. They immediately drove their magic power, one of them disappeared underground, and the other opened his mouth and spit out a blood arrow, and his body was rolled into the blood mist and turned into a startled rainbow and flew away.
The attack missed, and the Pixiu was furious, but it didn't intend to let the two go. At the same time, it swept towards Ye Chunyang not far away, and the fierce light in its eyes was bright. Then it turned around and stomped its four hooves wildly, and black clouds spewed out of its mouth again.
Ye Chunyang's expression changed slightly. He didn't know what kind of magical power the black cloud spewed out by this beast was, but it actually contained extremely strong impact. Although he had the body-refining technique to protect himself, he didn't dare to resist it rashly. Moreover, this black cloud spread very quickly. Even if he was not afraid of it, he had no way to retreat now.
He changed his mind, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes. Then he touched the spirit beast bag with two fingers. Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound, and a dark cloud of insects appeared in the air. It was the group of demon-eating Gu that had just been subdued.
After summoning the insect swarm, Ye Chunyang's expression condensed, and he pointed his two fingers in the air. Under the leadership of the mother Gu, hundreds of demon-eating Gu immediately drilled into the black cloud spewed out by the Pixiu and bit it crazily.
A surprising scene appeared.
After the insect swarm circled several times, the originally raging black cloud dissipated quickly like a whirlwind, and the Pixiu hiding in it also appeared clearly.
Seeing this scene, Ju Ruhai and Taoist Juechen looked at each other in dismay, and looked at Ye Chunyang with a more cautious look.
At this time, they finally confirmed that this person did have the means to control the demon-eating Gu, which was absolutely not something that ordinary people could do.
While the two were shocked, the Pixiu saw the cloud of insects, and its pupils also showed a look of horror, but after it looked at it, the murderous spirit in its eyes rose again, and it ran straight to the mother Gu in front.
Ye Chunyang's eyes flashed with sarcasm. The demon-eating Gu could even gnaw on magic weapons. No matter how strong the Pixiu was, it was just a flesh and blood body. It was simply courting death to resist with such brute force.
But this was exactly what he wanted. If the Pixiu chose to retreat, he would have to spend a lot of effort. Now that it came to the door, it would be much easier to deal with.
Seeing the Pixiu approaching, he immediately sent his divine thoughts to the insect swarm. The mother Gu fluttered a few times and then suddenly flew out. Its cold fangs bit the Pixiu frantically. The insect swarm behind it also launched an offensive under its lead, and surrounded the Pixiu in an instant.
However, the Pixiu seemed to have expected this. It was not panicked and still looked fearless. Just as the insect swarm approached, it also opened its mouth and sucked.
There was a loud bang.
The spiritual spring below suddenly rolled up a stormy tide, and a huge water column went straight up to the sky. The insect swarm was defeated before it approached the Pixiu.
Ye Chunyang was slightly surprised. He never thought that the Pixiu was so cunning. It pretended to attack to induce him to release the insect swarm to attack, just to reach the sky above the spiritual spring so that it could perform its magical powers.
This was clearly its strategy to lure the enemy.
Knowing the purpose of the beast, Ye Chunyang did not dare to be careless and hurriedly recalled all the demon-eating insects.
This beast was not inferior to any mana cultivator in terms of intelligence and magical power, and these demon-eating insects were hard to come by, and he did not want to lose them in the hands of the other party.
But after several fierce battles, the Pixiu seemed to realize that Ye Chunyang was the most difficult one among the three, and did not give him any breathing space. After seeing him retract the insect swarm, there seemed to be a faint sarcasm in his eyes, and then he moved his body and rushed over on the dark clouds.
Ye Chunyang's face sank. Originally, he only planned to use some tricks to cooperate with Ju Ruhai and Taoist Juechen, but he did not expect that this beast would fight him to the death. It seems that he has to use some hidden means.
