Chapter 203 Bee-Tailed Bird

The underground passage was only more than ten meters long. Soon, everyone reached the end and entered a square cellar.

It was empty, except for a stone door standing in the center. The stone door was carved with lifelike flowers, birds, fish and insects, and no spiritual energy fluctuations were felt, as if it were just a simple picture.

On both sides of the stone door, two oil lamps emitting cyan light were hung, illuminating the entire cellar.

The moment Xu Mu entered, an inexplicable chill grew in his heart.

The woman stood in front of the stone door, kneading the magic formula with her hands, and then a terrifying coercion emanated from her body.

hiss!

Several people felt their bodies suddenly sinking, as if a huge boulder suddenly pressed on their shoulders. Their muscles tightened and they hurriedly used their spiritual power to resist.

The intensity of this coercion far exceeds that of the Nascent Soul stage, and has probably reached the level of the Divine Transformation stage.

It's just that Xu Mu has never seen a strong person in the divine transformation stage, so he can't be completely sure.

The only thing that was certain was that if the other party wanted to kill a few of them, one finger would be enough.

You are so powerful and proficient in puppetry. If you don't go in yourself, why don't you let a few of us in?

If there is nothing fishy here, even a fool would not believe it!

The six people were obviously not fools, and they should all have realized it, but no one asked smartly.

Boom!

The woman's magic trick penetrated into the stone door, and the patterned stone door made a rumbling sound and slowly opened, revealing a gray space.

Compared to the cellar where they were, the light in the space was much brighter, like the day before sunrise.

The space is filled with flowers, plants and trees, and there are mountains and waterfalls in the distance. It doesn't look much different from ordinary mountains.

The only difference is probably that there are strands of black mist floating everywhere inside, changing into various shapes under the constant blowing of the mountain wind.

Whoops!

The moment the stone door opened, there happened to be a cloud of black mist floating towards here, passing through the stone door and filling into the cellar.

The originally cold cellar suddenly became three points colder.

The woman didn't stop him and allowed the black mist to fill the cellar.

Buzz!

Facing the drifting black mist, the high-level robes worn by Xu Mu and others reacted naturally, emitting a spiritual light that was like substance, blocking out the black mist.

Crackling!

As if the thunder power in Xu Mu's body was stimulated, a burst of purple lightning suddenly burst out, instantly obliterating the approaching black mist.

This instinctive reaction was so fast that even Xu Mu had no time to stop it.

Being able to attract such a reaction as the power of thunder, it is not difficult to guess that these black mist should be the evil and evil aura in the woman's mouth.

"Huh?"

Sensing the aura of thunder, except for the woman, the other five masked people looked towards him.

"My fellow Taoist actually practices thunder-type techniques, which is really enviable!" the purple-faced fat man said with a smile.

The power of thunder is naturally capable of restraining evil spirits. If nothing else happens, it will definitely gain a lot of advantages in the next actions.

Although the other few people did not speak, there was a hint of envy in their eyes.

"I've just mastered a little bit of it next time. Fellow Taoist, thank you."

Naturally, Xu Mu would not brag at this time. Although the people were separated in the early stage, after they reunited later, it would be troublesome if a few people used the power of thunder as an excuse to force him to take the lead.

"Fellow Taoist is being humble, I think..."

The fat man in the purple mask was interrupted by a woman before he finished speaking.

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry in. As long as you complete what I told you, you will not only get your original things back, but you will also get a reward that will definitely satisfy you!"

The corner of the woman's mouth raised, revealing a smile.

Only a ghost can believe it!

The six people were secretly complaining, but no one dared to speak out or even show it.

"It is an honor for me as a junior to serve my seniors!"

After the fat man in the purple mask finished flattering him, he took the initiative to walk towards the gray space.

But before entering, he first applied several layers of defensive spells to himself, and at the same time took out a small silver shield.

Judging from the aura emitting from the shield, it must be a magic weapon, and it has reached the ninth level.

Xu Mu's brows couldn't help but jump.

Being able to use ninth-level magic weapons, this purple-faced fat man's strength is definitely not that weak.

Possibly even the strongest among them all.

The other four people also had a hint of fear in their eyes.

It can also be seen from this point that none of the four of them is at the Nascent Soul stage, otherwise they would not be taboo about a ninth-level magic weapon.

Of course, if there's a movie star mixed in, there's nothing anyone can do.

After the silver shield was released by the purple-faced fat man, it quickly expanded until it reached the size of a washbasin before stopping, floating in front of him, blocking his vitals.

Then the fat man in the purple mask took out a few more high-level talismans and held them in his hands. After everything was ready, he stepped into the gray space.

The five people watched nervously, but fortunately nothing unusual happened. The fat man in the purple mask successfully passed through the stone door and walked in.

"fine!"

The purple-faced fat man waved to them, and then the five of them each released their body-protecting auras and defensive magic weapons, and walked in one after another.

The six people had just entered, and before they had time to observe the surrounding situation, the stone door behind them rumbled and began to slowly close.

The six people hurriedly looked back when a woman's voice came from outside.

"This passage cannot be opened for a long time. When you return here after completing your mission, I will open it for you again!"

Although a few people were very reluctant, they did not dare to stop it, because the control was in other people's hands.

After the stone gate slowly closed, the surrounding void twisted like water waves, and the stone gate disappeared out of thin air in front of the six people like a phantom.

Several people immediately used their spiritual thoughts to check, but could not find any trace of the stone gate, as if it had never appeared before.

Damn it!

Xu Mu couldn't help but cursed in his heart.

This stone gate is probably a special teleportation device. Without the stone gate, it would be impossible for them to leave here with their strength.

The current situation can be described as a desperate situation!

If you don't complete what the other party told you, don't even think about leaving!

"This woman...!"

The female cultivator in the blue mask gritted her teeth angrily, but that was all.

She didn't dare to really insult the other party, but there was a white cat puppet made by the other party lying on her shoulder.

"What should we do next?" The blue-masked female cultivator spoke first.

The six of them looked at each other, and it was Fatty Zi who spoke first.

"Fellow Taoists, how about we discuss it first and then split up?"

"I don't like to be with others, so I'll just... huh?"

Before the man in the green mask finished speaking, a huffing sound came from the ears of the six people.

A few people looked for the sound and saw a large group of black strange birds flying out of the bushes not far away. They were as dense as dark clouds and swooped in their direction, making loud chirping sounds.

Most of these strange birds are only the size of a palm, with black feathers all over their bodies. Their wings and heads are similar to ordinary birds, but their bodies are similar to poisonous bees, with a thin waist, a big belly, and a tail needle.

"It's a beetail! Watch out for its poisonous sting!"

The white cat puppets on the shoulders of the six people spoke almost simultaneously.

"A group of first- and second-level monsters, no matter how many there are, how powerful can they be!"

The man in the green mask snorted coldly, squeezed the magic formula with his hand, and instantly condensed the sword energy in the sky, and shot it towards the flying bee-tailed bird.

It was only a first- and second-level monster. No, it should be said to be a ferocious beast. Naturally, it could not be an opponent at the Golden Core stage. Under the sword energy of the blue masked man, thousands of bee-tailed birds were wiped out in just a few strokes. All was gone, turned into pieces of corpses on the ground.

However, the cyan masked man who was showing off his power not only did not show joy in his eyes, he couldn't help but cursed lowly, then took out a high-grade spiritual stone and absorbed all the spiritual energy in it.

The white cat puppet spoke again: "The spiritual energy here has long been fused with the evil energy. With your cultivation level, it cannot be changed at all, so it is better to use the spiritual energy in your body sparingly!"

Everyone immediately understood why the man in the cyan mask had such a reaction.

While others were worried, Xu Mu couldn't help but feel secretly happy. His magical power, Swallowing the Sky, could absorb and utilize energy regardless of its attributes.

Under the circumstances, he had a huge advantage.

In this way, even if he is in the late stage of Golden Core, he will not be able to use his skills.

"Senior, what should we do now?" Xu Mu looked at the white cat on his shoulder and asked

Bai Mao probably didn't expect that Xu Mu would call her senior. She looked at him in surprise and then said: "There are no powerful beasts outside the secret realm. It's just a waste of time to get together. Let's go separately!"

The man in the cyan mask turned and left without saying a word. The female cultivator who took the blue mask and the man in the red mask also turned and left without saying a word.

In the Tianhe Sect area, no one who can cultivate to the golden elixir stage is a weakling. They all have their own trump cards and self-confidence. Unless necessary, they will not sign up for a group to keep warm.

"See you two fellow Taoists at the end!"

The purple-masked fat man cupped his hands and turned to leave.

After Xu Mu determined the direction according to the jade slip, she also walked away. In the end, only the black masked man was still standing there. After the backs of several people completely disappeared in the dense forest, she walked towards the body of the beetail bird.
