Chapter 277 A Chill Strikes

From time to time, Yang Qingyin looked at the nine Luanjing Mountain Taoist priests from a distance, watching them place their magic weapons and cast spells, and watched the area above the pit gradually sinking into darkness like an abyss. It was so dark that she could stare at it for a while longer. She even had the illusion that she would be pulled in.

"Priest Dengzhu is really careful and doesn't want to be seen. Do they always cast spells like this?"

Even Yang Qingyin didn't know something, and the other Taoist priests were even less likely to know that their weapons were flying on the edge of the pit, and there was actually nothing to do. The nearby talisman masters were very careful, and they had always been in awe of the Taoist priests. , dare not get close easily, especially when they are casting spells, they must stay away.

"This big pit is quite special. In the future, water will be brought in from Jiehe River to better show the color of the bottom of the pit. Then it will be called 'Golden Lake'... Why are you all looking at me like this?" Xin Youtao asked. At first, he was quite unconvinced, "Do we have to talk about Mu Xingqiu and Qin Lingshuang? I am also their friend, but things have already happened. There is no point in thinking about it. We should return to normal."

"Don't let Brother Xiaoqiu hear such words..." Xiao Qingtao reminded in a low voice.

"He deserves to return to normal more than anyone else. He shouldn't have agreed to the soul arrest. He still wants to keep Qing Lingshuang's soul with him. This is simply... he is going to become a demon."

"You know everything, why didn't you say anything in front of Mu Xingqiu?" Yang Qingyin asked coldly, still looking at the darkness.

"We are all his friends and should work together to persuade him." Xin Youtao cast a questioning look at Shen Hao. He could sense that after Qin Lingshuang's death, Shen Hao was one of the calmest people, far calmer than he expected.

"Nothing will definitely lead to becoming a demon, and no Taoist priest can be persuaded not to become a demon. Mu Xingqiu believes that what he does is right, and that is enough. Whether it is a blessing or a curse, no one can change it." Shen Hao also Looking into the darkness, he seemed not very interested in the conversation.

Shen Hao is from Yelin Town. Although his feelings for Qin Lingshuang are secret, friends around him can also see the clues. Hearing his cold tone, they can't help but be surprised. Xin Youtao and Xiao Qingtao exchanged surprised looks. , said nothing more.

"It seems to be getting cold again." A Taoist priest said casually, just to break the temporary silence and embarrassment.

His words caught everyone's attention. They all nodded and said it was a little colder.

"Where does the cold air come from?" Shen Hao pointed to the dark area where the Luanjing Mountain Taoist priest was casting spells.

"No, the cold air is coming from behind." Yang Qingyin put forward the opposite view.

To determine who is right and who is wrong,

Several Taoist priests all concentrated their attention and felt it carefully.

"middle."

"Behind."

The opinions were still not unanimous, "Isn't this abnormal? Sun Yulu didn't even remind us."

Yang Qingyin was also confused about the situation. Her knowledge of Dengzhuke was no better than that of ordinary Taoist priests. "Let's retreat some distance first. They may... Anyway, let's not interfere with their spellcasting."

No one likes this feeling of being wet and cold. So we all agree with Yang Qingyin’s opinion.

Shen Hao was the last one to fly away and quickly caught up with Yang Qingyin, "Are the two leaders on guard against Luanjing Mountain Taoist Priests?"

"Of course, two old guys are wary of everyone. Even you and me."

After flying some distance, a voice came from the ground, "Taoist Yang, do you need our help?"

It's the talisman master Liu Ding. He is from Xijie, but also belongs to the Longbin Society. He heard that General Mu needs help. Please take the initiative to participate.

Yang Qingyin took the lead to descend to the ground and walked to Liu Ding, "It's okay. Is your restriction still stable?"

"Everything is normal." Liu Ding seemed a little excited. He glanced at the dozen or so talisman masters on the left and right, and was proud of being able to talk to the Taoist priest. "There are seven layers of restrictions in total. The first layer just surrounds the edge of the pit, and then There is a level of restrictions every twenty steps. This scale is not small. It has caught up with a big war, and these restrictions are very powerful. The innermost level uses up nearly a hundred high-grade paper charms. Every quarter of an hour, another Offer ten more, and the total is calculated..."

Liu Ding talked endlessly about the talismans. The other Taoist priests also lowered to the ground and listened perfunctorily. There was no cool chill in the air here. They felt relieved. Several people were flying in the air again to patrol. Only Yang Qingyin and The little green peach stayed on the ground.

Liu Ding suddenly stopped preaching about the characteristics of the seven-layer talisman restriction, "The time has come, we have to strengthen the restriction. Talisman masters are different from Taoist priests. We are more accustomed to cooperating with each other to make our power stronger. We are responsible for the innermost layer of restriction together. Each person Different paper talismans have to be sacrificed, and it doesn’t matter if there is a slight mistake. There is a lot of knowledge involved..."

As Liu Ding spoke, he took out the paper talisman and sacrificed it to ashes. The other talisman masters also sacrificed talismans. Although there was no formation and no one was directing them, there was a front and a back, each performing his own duties, and the cooperation was quite tacit. .

More than a dozen Talisman Masters were producing paper talismans very quickly. An older Talisman Master had a serious look on his face, "There is a powerful force breaking through outwards, and the restriction is about to..."

Before he finished speaking, a slight explosion suddenly sounded not far away, like a blown bubble bursting in the air.

The coldness slowly embraced everyone, not in a hurry, like a very patient python, ready to strangle its prey to death in a day.

A young Talisman Master let out a surprised cry, "Huh? It seems like... something is sucking me. I can't stand up anymore."

In the eyes of outsiders, there was nothing unusual about this talisman master. He still stood firmly in place, without even the corners of his clothes fluttering. But all the Talisman Masters changed their expressions, because they also felt the same way, as if there was a gradually increasing suction force dragging them into the pit. Everyone involuntarily leaned back slowly to resist the suction force. I feel that other people's postures are strange, but I don't know that I feel the same way.

Only Yang Qingyin and Xiao Qingtao didn't move, they just felt cold.

"One force comes from the inside out, and the other force comes from the outside in. Is this the soul-binding method of Dengzhuke? How did it break through the restriction and come so far?" Yang Qingyin was confused.

The other Taoist priests came back, and Shen Hao said in the air: "The first layer of talisman restrictions has been broken, and the power inside is getting stronger. Everyone must be evacuated."

Those talisman masters leaned back like a tree blown down by the strong wind, and continued to fall, shouting "strange", but their feet could not move.

Yang Qingyin immediately grabbed the collars of the two talisman masters and said loudly: "Take two each, Xiao Qingtao, you go back to the inn."

Xiao Qingtao nodded immediately, knowing that the situation here was too weird, and they couldn't solve it, so they had to report the situation to the chief. She stepped on Ruyi and flew into the city. Passing by six other restrictions one after another, I found that the chill had not yet spread. The talisman masters on the ground had already discovered the problem ahead, and were constantly using paper talismans to strengthen the intensity of the restrictions.

In the courtyard of the inn, Shen Jixian, who had white hair and beard, stood with his hands behind his hands, looking towards the big pit outside the city. Although he was separated by the courtyard wall and several streets, what he saw was no less than the people outside the city. Even more.

As soon as Xiao Qingtao landed, Shen Jixian waved to her and motioned for her to follow him.

Xiao Qingtao didn't dare to say a word and followed behind obediently.

In Zuo Liuying's room. Lan Qizhang was still sitting in the corner, the pained expression on his face became more obvious, and he was mumbling in a low voice.

There were no lights in the room, so Xiao Qingtao glanced at it. Take back your third eye immediately, and don't use any magic power easily in front of the leader.

"How many things have you not told me?" Shen Jixian asked.

"Many, many, Zuo Zuo said. None of them have anything to do with you." Xiao Qingtao felt that Zuo Liuying's answer was too blunt and hurriedly added an unnecessary explanation.

"Why did you allow Luanjing Mountain Taoist Priest to expand the scope of soul confinement? After a while, the whole city will be threatened, and there are still souls of living people here."

"I didn't give permission." Xiao Qingtao said this and breathed a sigh of relief. She was most worried about Zuo Liuying secretly making another conspiracy. It would be too unfair to Mu Xingqiu and everyone. Then she continued to spread the message. , "Things have gone awry and are beyond my control."

Shen Jixian glanced at Zuo Liuying, his eyes softened, and then said: "Soul confinement is a very simple spell. One Dengzhuke Taoist priest is enough. Didn't you allow nine Taoist priests from Luanjing Mountain to set up a soul array together?"

"I allowed it. Sun Yulu said that Qin Lingshuang's soul is very precious to them, so they must treat it with caution. One person is not enough. They set up the Nine Mysteries Yin Formation just to consolidate the soul. I don't know Why is the soul-binding power emitted?"

Shen Jixian's tone also softened. It is true that Zuo Liuying will not tell him everything, but as long as the head of the Forbidden Secret Division says it, it is still worthy of belief, "Can't even you see through the soul-binding hidden text?"

"This is Dengzhuke's way of hiding secrets. Even if I can see through it, I can't do it."

The secrets of Dengzhuke were only guarded against high-level Taoist priests from other sects. As for Mu Xingqiu, who was sitting in the middle of the soul array, they didn't particularly care and only sent Sun Yulu to monitor him.

"We can't let the soul-binding power spread anymore. There are thousands of souls floating on the battlefield outside the city, and the city is full of living people. It's too dangerous."

"Don't worry about the souls of the dead. As for the living, I will cast spells to protect them."

"Can you bear it? Your injuries are not light."

Zuo Liuying showed the Patriarch Tower in his right hand, and Xiao Qingtao said for him: "Three generations of twelve ancestors plus three hundred divine Taoist priests, nshThis is the Taoist fire that I consumed in the decisive battle to protect the tower. If Chao Jing Shan really has a conspiracy, I will use more Dao Fire. I don’t care who the mastermind of the conspiracy is, as long as the Patriarch Tower is there, everyone in Duanliu City will be safe.”

Countless rays of golden light flew out of the Patriarch's Tower, and the whole room suddenly became brighter. Xiao Qingtao looked at it carefully and found that each golden light was a small person, only the size of a thumb, much smaller than the giant in the final battle.

The golden villains go straight through the walls and windows and are distributed throughout the city. Each villain can protect a different number of living souls. No one can see them except Taoist priests.

Duanliu City continued to sleep soundly. Only a few Taoist priests and two hundred Fu Lu masters were still busy. On the other side of the river, Qu Xungui in the Huang Fu Army camp had already heard the news. He didn't understand what was going on, but he no longer knew Believing Taoist Pangshan, he immediately summoned all the Talisman masters and placed numerous restrictions to guard against the growing coldness on the other side.

All the alert people were on guard against Luan Jingshan Taoist priest, but Sun Yulu and the other nine people were on guard against a Pangshan Taoist priest who was breathing at the fifth level.

Mu Xingqiu and the young demon looked at each other, and their illusions became stronger and stronger.
