Chapter 790 Demonic Energy and Demonic Body

"Those monks from the Yanman tribe actually retreated on their own initiative? How strong are they? How many alchemy monks are there?" Ye Chunyang tapped the chair with his index finger and asked Su Qin with a thoughtful look on his face.

Before he came to Qianlong Mountain, he felt that there was something strange here. Now that he heard Su Qin say this, it was even more proof that there was something strange here.

"The battle was fierce and chaotic, and we couldn't see clearly the opponent's specific strength for a while. However, judging from the hand-to-hand fight, there were no less than ten monks from the Yanman tribe in the core formation stage, and there were two in the mid-stage formation stage." Su Qin thought for a while and then said briefly.

"Ten or so alchemy monks..." Ye Chunyang thought secretly in his heart.

"When something goes wrong, there must be a demon. The monks of the Yanman clan suddenly left. There must be something fishy about this matter."

At this moment, the voice of the old man surnamed Han came. He glanced at Ye Chunyang and said quietly: "There are two strongholds in Qianlong Mountain. In order to prevent the other party from sneak attacks again, Fellow Daoist Ye, why don't you and I each perform our duties, one person at a time?" Guard the front, and one person is responsible for guarding the rear, so as to avoid being attacked by them from both front and rear. "

Ye Chunyang didn't rush to answer when he heard this. He pondered for a while before nodding his head and said with a chuckle: "This is a good idea, but I wonder where Fellow Daoist Han wants to guard it?"

"The front is close to the transfer point of the Western Region, and it must be the primary target of the Yanman clan. Although Ye Daoyou has extraordinary magical powers, he still has little experience after all. If not, why not just stay at the rear, and I will be responsible for the restrictions in front. What do you think?" Han said? The old man said this without even thinking about it.

Ye Chunyang was a little surprised, but there was nothing strange about it.

He looked at the old man surnamed Han calmly, and said with a meaningful smile: "In terms of experience, fellow Taoist Han is indeed above Ye. In this case, the prohibition circle in front will be handed over to fellow Taoist to guard, but it is said that those Yan The monks of the two tribes are not ordinary people, so please be careful, Daoist friend Han."

The old man surnamed Han nodded lightly and did not respond to Ye Chunyang's words. Instead, he turned to Wei Heng, the alchemy monk from the Qianyuan Sect, and said: "Those Yanman monks may attack at any time. Please take me to see the forbidden area outside the mountain first." "

Wei Heng did not dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly responded and led the old man out of the mountain.

Soon, only the monks from the Ten Sect Alliance, headed by Ye Chunyang, were left in the cave. Watching the old man surnamed Han leave, Ye Chunyang's face was like ancient water, completely unrippled. Hong Ji on the side seemed to have other ideas, staring at the old man's back with a somewhat uncertain expression.

"We have always fought with barbarians. The monks of both the good and the devil are cunning and cunning. It is rare that they take the initiative. This old man is suddenly so enthusiastic that he has to be on guard." After the Tao master disappeared, Hong Ji's expression calmed down and he suddenly spoke to Ye Chunyang.

This was not the only battle with the barbarians. Hong Ji knew a little about the thoughts and behavior of people in both good and evil circles. The behavior of the old man named Han this time was really suspicious to him.

Ye Chunyang's eyes flashed and he sat silently.

Regarding the understanding of the Taoist world, I am afraid that no one here can match him. Back then, Guxuan Daoist insisted that he was a demon spy in the sea of ​​​​guixu. It was also because of him that the Tianxie Demon Lord was able to escape. This sect's selfish style He doesn't have any thoughts about others. Although the old man surnamed Han seems to be fine, Ye Chunyang will not let down his guard because of this.

But now he is no longer the weak young man who still had to be in awe of the Taoist world. With his cultivation at this time, not to mention the old man surnamed Han, there are not many people in the entire Taoist world who can threaten him. The timing was wrong, he had already gone to the Taoist world to find Taoist Guxuan to settle old accounts.

With a sneer in his heart, Ye Chunyang didn't say much. He nodded to Hong Ji to show his relief and then said to Su Qin: "Since they took the initiative to guard the front, leave the rear to us, Junior Sister Su, you still have to work hard. You lead the way."

"Yes, two senior brothers, please follow me."

Su Qin didn't hesitate at all, nodded solemnly and led Ye Chunyang and others towards the back mountain.

Although Qianlong Mountain is not big, due to the terrain, once the Feng Ling Tower is broken, it will be the primary battlefield to resist the Yanman tribe. Historically, wars have broken out here when the barbarians invaded. However, the Dongzhou monks are good at taking advantage of the terrain. After setting up various powerful forbidden formations here, they drove back the barbarians again and again, and finally successfully prevented the other party's intention to set foot in Dongzhou.

Therefore, the key task of guarding this time fell on Ye Chunyang.

Although Ye Chunyang doesn't like to participate in various disputes, he knows that if Dongzhou falls into the territory of barbarians, the secret of his possession of the holy cauldron will be exposed, and he will face endless pursuit. He doesn't want to be like that again. Forced into desperation, he fled to another place to endure.

"Senior brother Ye, I have a detailed formation map of Qianlong Mountain here. Senior brother, you might as well take a look." Leading Ye Chunyang and Hong Ji to a hilltop, Su Qin took out a scroll from the Qiankun bag and handed it to Ye Chunyang. in hand.

Ye Chunyang nodded and took it silently. He opened the scroll and examined it carefully. As expected, there were many locations restricted by the magic circle.

Although these restrictions were marked on the jade slips given by the old monster Yunlu, they were obviously not as detailed as this scroll. After reading it, Ye Chunyang had a more intuitive understanding of the defense line here.

"These restrictions were set up many years ago when the various factions fought against the barbarians. The restrictions on the front mountain are mainly used for attack, while those on the back mountain are for defense. They will only be activated when the front mountain is lost. As long as the righteous and evil cultivators of the Immortal Alliance can rely on the restrictions to block the attacks of the Yan and Man tribes, the restrictions on the back mountain will not be needed." Su Qin introduced again.

Ye Chunyang nodded slightly. With his research on the magic array, he could naturally see the wonderful use of these restrictions, and he couldn't help but admire the ancestors who set up the restrictions.

The restrictions here are so strong that even if a cultivator in the late Jindan stage takes action personally, it is impossible to break without trying his best. In this way, their chances of winning this battle are a little greater.

Moreover, now that he has shown his strength, there is no need for him to hold back.

While he was thinking silently, Su Qin lowered his head slightly, his eyes flickered, as if he wanted to say something, but he hesitated.

"Junior sister Su, if you have anything to say, just say it." Ye Chunyang saw the strangeness of this woman and said with a slight smile.

Su Qin's face flashed a trace of hesitation, and after a long time, she pursed her lips and sighed, saying: "I don't have anything else to say, but today I saw Senior Brother Ye again and couldn't help but think of my little disciple. Twenty years ago, she was possessed by the holy demon in the Xuansha secret realm of the Giant Spirit Sect. I don't know how she is now. I have asked around for her news over the years, but unfortunately I have found nothing."

At this point, she looked at Ye Chunyang and said: "I wonder what happened when Senior Brother chased after her?"

Ye Chunyang didn't expect Su Qin to mention this matter. The scene of chasing the ancient holy demon appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"I wanted to rescue Hong Xiao from the Juling Sect, but unfortunately she was possessed by the Holy Demon. I tried my best to chase her for a long time but couldn't find her." Ye Chunyang shook his head. This was a great pity for him. After all, Princess Hong Xiao had some relationship with him. He didn't want to see such a thing happen.

"It seems that my disciple is unlucky and destined to have this disaster." Su Qin smiled bitterly.

"Humph, the Juling Sect has always been against my sect. If they hadn't intercepted us halfway, this wouldn't have happened. But Junior Sister Su doesn't have to worry. After the elder Shen Tuba of the Juling Sect was defeated by Junior Brother Ye, I think they won't dare to be arrogant anymore in the future." On the other side, Hongji seemed to think of something when he heard the conversation between the two, and said with a sneer.

Su Qin was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Hongji with a surprised expression.

She naturally knew Shen Tuba. His body refining skills shocked the ten major sects on the border, but Ye Chunyang could actually defeat him?

Su Qin suddenly felt a little incredible.

Hongji chuckled twice and told the girl about how Ye Chunyang had defeated Shen Tuba outside Meteor City. Su Qin listened quietly, and was a little suspicious at first, and then she could not hide her shock. When she heard that Ye Chunyang had beaten Shen Tuba so badly within three moves that he had no chance to fight back, her face was completely dazed.

Finally, she looked at Ye Chunyang with a blank expression, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Ye Chunyang did not give any other explanation for this. Instead, he looked at the girl and changed the subject: "Junior sister Su, you have been collecting information here for the past few years. Have you gained anything?"

Hearing his question, Su Qin recovered from her shock. After taking a deep breath to calm down, she said: "To be honest with you, senior brothers, I have indeed found some useful information in these years. Just a few years ago, some strange demonic energy often appeared in the Western Regions. When cultivators were eroded by demonic energy, they would be demonized on the spot and become monsters that were neither human nor ghost. But at the same time, after becoming a demonized body, their magical powers became much stronger. It was difficult for ordinary cultivators of the same level to fight against them."

"Demonized body?"

Ye Chunyang raised his eyebrows. Recently, he probably heard the most about the strange demonic energy appearing in the Western Regions. At this moment, listening to what Su Qin said, he unconsciously thought of the demon body that Mu Zhen transformed into after using the Crimson Demon Talisman.

There must be some connection here.

After all, what Su Qin said was so similar to what he had encountered, so he had to doubt it.

After thinking for a while, Ye Chunyang asked, "Have you seen those demonized barbarian monks with your own eyes? Did those demons appear in the fight just now?"

"I did see it with my own eyes, but those demons did not appear in the fight just now." Su Qin said affirmatively.

Ye Chunyang frowned.

"Hey, Junior Brother, what do you see?"

Just as Ye Chunyang was thinking secretly, Hongji beside him suddenly pointed forward with a surprised look, and saw bursts of gray smoke floating out of a deep canyon not far ahead, spreading so fast that it covered half of the sky in the blink of an eye.

Su Qin was also surprised to see this scene suddenly, but before they could investigate carefully, several screams came from the bottom of the mountain, followed by a large expansion of gray fog, accompanied by bursts of harsh "crackling" and "crackling" sounds, as if some monster was eating in the fog.
