Chapter 170 Test the Power
The burly man was stunned when he heard Yuan Ming's words, and he couldn't decide what to say for a while.
He originally thought that Yuan Ming was just an ordinary cultivator who was alone, so he followed him with the other three people, intending to kill Yuan Ming and take away the 300 spirit stones given by the Baiye Alliance.
But the situation in front of him was completely different from what he expected. Chaha used the Earth Traveling Talisman to plot against this person, but he has not appeared yet. Instead, Yuan Ming appeared unscathed, and the burly man couldn't help but retreat.
The red-clothed woman was the same, and she felt like retreating.
"What are you two afraid of! We are three to one, how can we lose? Boy, if you are smart, hand over the storage magic weapon, I can keep your body intact!" The gloomy young man was like a newborn calf who was not afraid of a tiger, and shouted loudly.
"Idiot!" The burly man was startled and cursed inwardly, but it was too late to stop the gloomy young man.
"So, the three of you are here for the three hundred spirit stones? Since you want to kill people and take things, I think you are prepared to be killed." Yuan Ming said calmly.
"Want to kill us? Just relying on you, a waste of the ninth level of Qi Refining!" The cold young man laughed wildly, and a green round bead magic weapon appeared in his hand, and it flew straight to Yuan Ming's heart like an arrow.
At this point, the burly man gritted his teeth and had to take action. He turned his hand and sacrificed a yellow hammer, which was half a foot long. The hammer head was as big as a millstone, and the momentum was amazing. He blasted it towards Yuan Ming's head.
Seeing the other two people taking action, the woman in red also sacrificed a blue feather fan and waved it fiercely at Yuan Ming.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
More than a dozen sharp ice cones condensed out of thin air, burst out, and pierced Yuan Ming's body.
The three people joined forces, and their power was extraordinary. The burst of energy drove back all the poisonous miasma around more than ten feet.
Yuan Ming calmly made a gesture, and a golden light flashed in front of him. The gilded gauze flashed out and wrapped around his body several times, forming a thick golden gauze curtain.
The green flying sword, the yellow hammer, and the sharp ice cone hit it almost at the same time, and the golden gauze curtain was covered with shock waves, but it immediately returned to stability.
"How is it possible!" The three burly men were stunned. They had just tried their best, but they couldn't shake Yuan Ming's defense!
Yuan Ming looked at the unusually stable gauze curtain, his face did not change, and he was quite satisfied.
He deliberately used the gilded gauze to take the attacks of the three people, wanting to see how defensive the gauze was. Fortunately, the gilded gauze did not disappoint him.
"Quick!"
Yuan Ming raised the Cold Star Sword and pointed at the green flying sword and the yellow hammer outside the golden gauze curtain.
The cold air around the two magic weapons was so strong that a large piece of white ice condensed out of thin air, freezing the two magic weapons in it.
The burly man and the cold young man's faces suddenly changed. The connection between them and their magic weapons was suddenly interrupted, and they were unable to control them for a while.
The two had never encountered such a situation before, and they panicked immediately. The burly man had a higher cultivation level, so he forced himself to calm down and raised his hand to sacrifice another magic weapon.
At this moment, the ground under his feet suddenly cracked, and a purple-black vine shot out and instantly entangled his legs.
The burly man's heart trembled, and he jumped back violently, trying hard to break free from the vine's confinement. However, the purple-black vine was extremely tough, and not only did he not break free, but he was dragged to the ground.
A white light shot from the front and instantly arrived in front of the burly man, faster than everyone's eyes, and pierced through the burly man's body with a "puff". It was the Cold Star Sword.
The sharp cold air burst out, and the burly man's body was frozen into an ice stick, and his life was instantly cut off.
The burly man had the strongest cultivation among the four, but he couldn't even take two moves from Yuan Ming.
The gloomy young man and the woman in red were already terrified and turned to flee in different directions.
Yuan Ming made a gesture, and two spiritual lights, one blue and one black, shot out from his sleeves, heading straight for the woman in red. They were the Shuiyun Banner and the black wooden hairpin of the one-eyed woman.
The white light on the Hanxing Sword passed through the burly man's body and chased the gloomy young man.
"Stop, stop! I'm from the Xue Family Fort in the East Region, you can't kill me..."
The gloomy young man noticed the Hanxing Sword coming from behind, and he screamed like a ghost. He continued to run forward, while taking out talismans and throwing them behind him.
More than a dozen fireballs, wind blades, water arrows and other spells appeared, and they all hit the Hanxing Sword.
Yuan Ming activated the wind rune in the Cold Star Sword through the air, and the Cold Star Sword suddenly became illusory, and its speed increased by several times. It easily avoided the fireball and the wind blade attack, and caught up with the cold young man in the blink of an eye.
A jade pendant hanging on the young man's waist suddenly glowed with white light, and a layer of translucent white light emerged, wrapping his body.
"Bang!"
The Cold Star Sword hit his back and was directly blocked by the white light, but the powerful impact still knocked the cold young man to the ground.
Before the young man made any other moves, a sharp ice sword energy rolled down first, freezing the cold young man and the white light shield together.
Then the long sword fell, chopping the young man and the ice into pieces.
Almost at the same time, a shrill scream came from the other side, and then fell silent.
Yuan Ming took off the storage magic tools of the burly man and the cold young man, walked towards the woman in red, and soon came to her side.
The legs of the woman in red were also entangled by purple and black vines, and a huge wound appeared between her chest and abdomen, as if she had been cut by a sharp weapon, and the black wooden hairpin also pierced her heart. She was dead and could not die any more.
Yuan Ming picked up the blue feather fan and the storage bag of the woman in red that fell beside him, and turned back to the cave.
Looking at the Cold Star Sword in his hand, he smiled.
The burly man and his men were not weak in strength. The reason why they were defeated today was mainly because the Cold Star Sword could freeze other people's magic weapons and temporarily escape the opponent's control.
Ordinary ice magic weapons cannot do this. At most, they can affect the magic power in the magic weapon, but cannot affect the trace of soul that resides in the magic weapon. However, Yuan Ming's Cold Star Sword was forged with Yin Jade, which can attack people's souls. After freezing the magic weapons of the two, it also isolated the consciousness of the two.
If a cultivator in the Qi Refining Period loses his magic weapon and panics for a while, he will naturally be slaughtered.
Yuan Ming used his consciousness to explore the three magic weapons.
The blue feather fan, the green round bead, and the burly man's yellow hammer are all low-grade magic weapons. He has seen the rune engraved in the blue feather fan on the black wood notebook. It is called "Ice Cone" and can launch an ice cone attack.
Although the round bead magic weapon of the cold young man is green, it is made of metal. It is small, but it weighs a hundred pounds.
As for the rune in the cyan bead, Yuan Ming couldn't recognize it. Judging from the effect of the cyan bead, it was a rune of collision.
The rune in the yellow hammer of the burly man was also on the black wood note. It was called "vibration", which could turn power into vibration. The golden gauze curtain just now had ripples, which was the attack effect caused by the yellow hammer.
"I already have a casting hammer. I didn't expect to get a bigger hammer today. It seems that I have a connection with hammer-type magic tools. Hey, this hammer has a name..." Yuan Ming gently waved the yellow hammer and his eyes fell on the end of the hammer handle.
There were three small characters engraved there: Mountain Shaking Hammer.
"Mountain Shaking Hammer, the name is quite appropriate." Yuan Ming smiled.
Of the three magic tools, the only one he liked was the Mountain Shaking Hammer. This hammer was made of some kind of metal and was extremely heavy. It was also on the cyan bead and the casting hammer of Master Black Wood. With the vibration rune, the attack power was extremely strong, especially suitable for close combat.
If he performs the White Ape Transformation, it will definitely complement the Mountain Shaking Hammer.
Yuan Ming put away the three magic tools and checked the storage bags of the three people.
In the storage bag of the red-clothed woman, there are a few spirit stones, some ordinary materials, and a very poor quality low-grade magic tool, which is not as good as the black wooden hairpin.
On the contrary, the cold young man has more than 200 spirit stones in his storage bag, including a medium-grade spirit stone, and two low-grade magic tools of decent quality.
Yuan Ming finally opened the storage magic tool of the burly man and was stunned.
In addition to a small amount of spiritual materials, the rest of this storage bag only contains a large amount of talisman paper, a talisman pen with a golden rod and a white head, several bottles of talisman spirit liquid, and a thin book.
"This burly man is big and strong, I didn't expect him to be a talisman master." Yuan Ming showed a surprised look on his face.
The talisman paper, talisman pen, and spirit liquid all reveal the identity of the burly man.
Yuan Ming counted the talismans in the storage bag. There were 32 finished talismans, all of which were low-level fireball talismans, wind blade talismans, water arrow talismans, etc. There was not a single mid-level talisman.
"It seems that this person's talisman-making level is just average." Yuan Ming said inwardly, and took the thin book and opened it.
The book was something similar to a black wooden notebook. The first few pages recorded the burly man's cultivation career, experience, etc. The last three pages were painted with six talisman runes, namely the fireball talisman, wind blade talisman, water arrow talisman, rock thorn talisman, wood thorn talisman, and earth travel talisman.
The first five talismans were all low-grade, but the earth travel talisman was a mid-grade one.
"So that yellow talisman is called the earth travel talisman."
The effect of the earth travel talisman was clearly written next to the talisman book, which could allow people to move freely underground for a short period of time, as if swimming in the water, which was more advanced than the ordinary earth escape technique.
Unfortunately, the burly man only drew one earth travel talisman.
Yuan Ming secretly thought it was a pity, and then put the books and other things into the storage ring, without trying to draw talismans himself.
When he was learning to refine weapons in Biluo Cave, he had heard people talk about talismans more or less, and had a little understanding of drawing talismans.
A talisman master is a profession that consumes resources and time. If you want to master a talisman, you must go through hundreds or thousands of failures, consume countless materials and energy, and then slowly accumulate experience and increase the success rate.
For some people with a slightly worse talent for drawing talismans, it is normal for the number of failures to increase by two or three times, and if you change to another talisman, you have to start from scratch.
To train a qualified talisman master, there is no other way except to use countless resources for years.
Moreover, drawing talismans is extremely energy-consuming, which is bound to affect cultivation. As long as there are people who are still motivated to cultivate immortals, they will not be distracted to learn this.
Yuan Ming has no resources and no extra energy, so he naturally will not try to learn to draw talismans.
Too much can't be eaten!
