Chapter 395 The Fourth Person
Ye Chunyang did not expect that the intelligence of the Pixiu would not decrease after it was transformed into a demon, but it would become extremely cunning and deceitful. This also made Ju Ruhai and Taoist Juechen behind him slightly shocked and realized that this beast was difficult to deal with.
While it was targeting Ye Chunyang, the two of them escaped from the black cloud early and escaped.
Ye Chunyang frowned secretly, but he did not pay attention to the two of them. Instead, he looked at the Pixiu with a slightly flickering look, thinking about something in his heart.
After a while, he opened and closed his hands, and a piece of white crystal light appeared in his palms. After silently reciting the spell, he raised his hand and waved it in the air. Suddenly, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and bursts of thunder came out from it.
Ye Chunyang pointed in the air, and saw a rumbling sound above the nine heavens, and several lightning lights as thick as arms rushed down, bombarding the Pixiu continuously.
This method is called the Jingxiao Leiyan Curse, which is a primary magical power in the Guiyi Dao Sutra. It can have unexpected effects against tough enemies.
However, Ye Chunyang underestimated the toughness of the Pixiu. Although it was shaking violently under the thunder whip, there was no scar on its body. Instead, it kept struggling and roaring in the thunder light, and it seemed to be getting braver and braver.
Ye Chunyang's expression froze, but he was not surprised. The Pixiu was originally a spiritual beast of heaven and earth. After being demonized, its body became several times tougher and it was difficult for ordinary magical powers to restrain it.
He was prepared for this.
After a flash of thought, he opened the spiritual beast bag again, and a blue light shot up into the sky.
A few muffled "puff" sounds came, and it seemed that some kind of strange beast was hovering in the air, but it could not be seen clearly in the dark clouds.
After this light appeared, Ye Chunyang pinched his fingers, and the thunder in the air rose wildly. Then there was a loud bang, and the strange beast in the dark cloud suddenly opened its mouth and sprayed out a real thunder several feet wide, which fell directly towards the Pixiu.
The dazzling lightning was all around, making Ju Ruhai and Taoist Juechen unable to open their eyes, and they couldn't see what the strange beast in the dark cloud was. They only felt the shocking spiritual pressure in the lightning, which made them retreat subconsciously.
Ye Chunyang didn't say much, and still concentrated on activating the spell.
The strange beast he released was naturally Ling Kun.
This beast is a descendant of the true spirit, and is naturally hostile to the demonized monsters. Its magical power, the Void Thunder, may have a restraining effect. Moreover, after Ling Kun advanced to the second level, it can compete with the second-level middle-level monsters with the power of its bloodline, and its power is self-evident.
The Pixiu raised its head, and its pupils shrank suddenly, as if it recognized the strange beast in the cloud, and a look of surprise appeared in its eyes.
But this surprise was only a flash, and when it saw the real thunder falling, it became manic again, and a large piece of black cloud spewed out of its mouth.
It must be said that the black cloud magic of this beast is very strange. After several diffusions, even the powerful power of Ling Kun's Void Thunder was infected and dissipated a lot.
Seeing this, Ye Chunyang suddenly slapped the Qiankun bag, and a black bell and drum flashed out of thin air.
This bell is covered with inscriptions, and the style is ancient and heavy. The whole body exudes a heart-pounding cold breath, as if one look at it can make people confused.
It is the Soul-Suppressing Bell obtained together with the Demon-Suppressing Seal.
After offering this bell, Ye Chunyang immediately entered the magic formula, and the bell sounded like thunder, the mountain trembled, and cracks appeared on the ground.
Hearing this soul-stirring bell sound, Ju Ruhai and Taoist Juechen showed horror on their faces, and couldn't help but use magic power to protect their ears to avoid being hit by this sound.
And then they were even more shocked to find that after the bell sound spread, the black cloud sprayed by the Pixiu actually collapsed and dispersed, without a trace.
The two were shocked.
At this time, Ye Chunyang did not say anything and cast a spell at the beast in the dark cloud again. There was a loud roar and lightning spread for miles. The mysterious beast continuously spewed out several thunders, which fell heavily on the Pixiu.
The black cloud magic had just been defeated, and the Pixiu was at its weakest defense. The speed of casting spells was far slower than that of Ye Chunyang, who had the three elements of spirit, energy and spirit combined. In an instant, he was struck by the divine thunder and his skin was torn apart and he wailed non-stop.
Ye Chunyang was slightly happy to see this. After fighting for so long, he finally got the upper hand.
But he knew that although Ling Kun could temporarily restrain the Pixiu with divine thunder, he could not last long, so he clapped his hands, and several talismans flew out of the Qiankun bag, which turned into spiritual light and surrounded the Pixiu.
After finishing this task, Ye Chunyang tapped his ten fingers, and the talisman light suddenly became bright, forming a talisman array around the Pixiu. Under the interweaving of the light net, the Pixiu was trapped in it before it had time to struggle.
With a wave of Ye Chunyang's hand, the beast fell in front of him obediently and could not move. Ling Kun and the Soul-Calming Bell were also taken back into the bag at the same time.
In a moment, the dust settled.
Ju and Jue looked at each other, each at a loss.
In this battle, the two of them seemed to be working hard, but in fact, Ye Chunyang was the only one resisting this fierce beast, and now he was subdued. What a magical power!
Ye Chunyang didn't care about their thoughts. After trapping the Pixiu in the talisman array, he immediately used the Soul Refining Technique and used a distraction to seal the beast, trying to refine it.
It had been agreed before that whoever subdued the beast first would have priority in refining, and Ye Chunyang would naturally not miss such an opportunity.
Ju Ruhai and Taoist Juechen frowned secretly, each with a different look in their eyes, but they were tactful and didn't say much.
However, just when Ye Chunyang was activating the distraction, he suddenly snorted coldly, and activated the spell without saying anything, and several spiritual lights shot towards a certain void.
Seeing his move, Ju Ruhai was shocked, and Taoist Juechen's face changed slightly.
While the two people had different expressions, the void trembled a few times, and a fluorescent light shield appeared in the air, blocking the spiritual light shot by Ye Chunyang. After the light faded, a figure appeared in front of him.
It was a middle-aged man, wearing a white shirt with brocade patterns and a jade gold crown on his head. He looked elegant and gentle.
Seeing this person, Ju Ruhai's pupils shrank, and then his face turned cold.
It was obvious that this person had sneaked in with some kind of hidden magic, but he was unaware of it.
The middle-aged man who appeared did not look at him, but stared at Ye Chunyang, and said with a slightly gloomy face: "Your magic is indeed extraordinary, but can you tell me how you found me? After all, with my hidden ancient symbols, unless they are Jindan cultivators, few people in the mana period can find out my whereabouts."
"Your hidden magic is indeed good, but it's a pity that there is still a loophole. Before entering the spiritual spring, you had telepathy with fellow Taoist Juechen, but I couldn't be sure at that time. It was not until you wanted to reap the benefits of the fisherman and refine the Pixiu first that I could lock your whereabouts."
Ye Chunyang sneered faintly and said pointedly.
"Fellow Taoist Juechen, did you lead this person here?" Ju Ruhai's face changed, staring at the Taoist Juechen and questioned.
"Yes, now there is no need for me to hide it anymore. This Daoist Lin is indeed invited by me." Taoist Juechen looked at Ye Chunyang, a ferocious look flashed across his face, and he said, "Originally, we agreed that one of us would be in the open and the other in the dark. On the surface, I would join hands with you to deal with the Pixiu, while Daoist Lin would wait for an opportunity to refine the beast. I didn't expect Daoist Ye to be so sensitive that he actually discovered Daoist Lin's existence."
Ye Chunyang looked indifferent, but he sneered in his heart.
Taoist Master Juechen moved and stood with the man surnamed Lin. He scanned the two of them and finally looked at Ju Ruhai. He said, "Fellow Daoist Ju, you must know that although the Pixiu has spiritual eyes and can identify restrictions in the sea of fog, it can only protect three people at a time. Now, Fellow Daoist Lin and I have decided to take the Pixiu. In view of your guidance and our past friendship, as long as you join hands with the two of us, I promise to take you through the sea of fog after refining the Pixiu."
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Juechen is calculating, but I am afraid that the strength of the two of you may not be able to intimidate Fellow Daoist Ye and me. On the contrary, I think that joining forces with Fellow Daoist Ye may be a little more stable." Ju Ruhai laughed strangely.
If the mysterious man surnamed Lin had a higher level of cultivation, he might stand with them without hesitation, but the other party was at the same early stage of magic power as them, and the two sides were evenly matched. Ye Chunyang could subdue the Pixiu alone, so he certainly felt that joining forces with the latter would have a better chance of winning.
After saying that, he looked at Ye Chunyang and said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, what do you think?"
"Fellow Daoist Ju is willing to join forces with me, which is exactly what I want."
Ye Chunyang nodded lightly.
In fact, he had already made several preparations. Even if Ju Ruhai turned against him at the last minute, he would not be afraid, but it would only take more time. But now that the other party took the initiative to stand with him, it would naturally save a lot of trouble.
Besides, although the cultivator surnamed Lin was a little weird, his cultivation was at the same level as theirs after all, and Ye Chunyang did not take him seriously.
When Taoist Juechen heard this, his expression immediately sank.
However, he sneered after looking at the man surnamed Lin beside him. Although this man's cultivation level was the same as theirs, his real means could compete with those of the middle stage of mana. The reason why he wanted to win over Ju Ruhai was because after seeing that Ye Chunyang could subdue the Pixiu alone, Taoist Juechen knew that this man was difficult to control, so he wanted to kill him.
Now, even if Ju Ruhai chose to join forces with Ye Chunyang, there was still a huge gap between them, and it would be easy to kill the two of them.
Of course, he would not tell Ju Ruhai these things, but only sneered at Ju Ruhai and said, "Since you are so ungrateful, don't blame me for not thinking of the relationship."
"Fellow Daoist Lin, that kid surnamed Ye is quite strange, so I'll leave it to you to deal with. I'll help you after I kill Ju Ruhai!"
As he spoke, Taoist Juechen took a step forward, his eyes became fierce.
The man surnamed Lin glanced at Ye Chunyang, then smiled and shook his head, saying: "Daoist Juechen, just focus on dealing with Ju Ruhai. Although this kid surnamed Ye has some skills, he is still no match for me."
Daoist Juechen nodded when he heard this. He was well-known for this person. He could defeat a mid-level mana cultivator, let alone a man of the same level. He was naturally relieved to let him deal with the kid surnamed Ye. And Ju Ruhai was very familiar to him, so it was not difficult to deal with him.
Seeing the two people stand out one after another, the mana flowed one after another, Ye Chunyang narrowed his eyes slightly, and murderous intent gradually grew in his heart.
Listening to the conversation between the two just now, this cultivator surnamed Lin seemed not to be underestimated, but in his eyes, he was nothing. Now, as long as they were not masters of the late stage of mana, they would not pose any threat to him.
