Chapter 0484 Biased Amber
"Straw hat, what Zuo Liuying used to suppress the demon species was just a straw hat?" a Taoist priest said blankly.
The last bit of support for the demon-invading Taoist priests also disappeared. The straw hat was very ordinary, definitely not a Taoist treasure. At the same moment it broke, the last remaining part of the corpse demon also fell into pieces, and the demon corpses were scattered all over the ground.
"We were deceived!" Another Taoist priest said angrily, "Zuo Liuying doesn't know how to suppress demons at all. He, he used a straw hat to deceive us!"
Nearly a hundred demon-invading Taoist priests suddenly became excited and talked in a variety of ways, but their arms were still linked together.
Zhou Qianhui flew in front of everyone. The next angry wave would come out at any time. Without the corpse demon to act as a defense line, the area around Amber was the most dangerous place in the entire Demon Mountain Pass, but he couldn't leave just like that.
"Listen to me!" Zhou Qianhui raised his voice, overcoming the noise of the invading Taoist priests, "You should thank Zuo Liuying. What he left you is not a magic weapon, but something more precious - confidence. In the past During this period of time, you have been relying on your own strength to suppress the demon species, which shows..."
"This shows that everything is a lie!" A demon-invading Taoist priest rudely interrupted Zhou Qianhui, "The Taoist priests only want to use us. After killing the demon tree, taking back the sword-washing pool and the amber Taoist priests, will the Taoist priests still say good things? They will kill everyone without mercy!"
The mostly damaged tree tower was slowly recovering. Zhou Qianhui glanced back and saw that the demon tree was rapidly sprouting branches and sprouts. The demon corpses in the pit turned into thick liquid, providing nourishment to the demon tree.
The efforts of the demon-invading Taoist priests are about to be in vain.
"Taoist!" Zhou Qianhui shouted, "Don't say you don't know the consequences of being invaded by demons. You are not the first batch of Taoist priests to sacrifice your lives to eliminate demons, nor are you the last batch."
"To put it lightly, who said that after being attacked by a demon species, you will definitely become crazy? As you just said, maybe you can suppress the demon species through your own efforts. In that case, why should I commit suicide? Or be killed by the orthodoxy?"
The demon-invading Taoist priests were all nodding. Indeed, over the years, everyone has only heard stories of a certain Taoist priest committing suicide to eliminate demons or being forcibly taken away the elixir to destroy his mind. But what if he did not commit suicide or was not taken away from the elixir? Will he definitely become a demon and become an enemy of the orthodoxy?
In Zhou Qianhui's eyes, the remarks of the Taoist priests clearly showed that the devil was shaking the Taoist heart, and the situation was becoming more and more critical. If they continued to fight like this, the tree tower would return to its original state. With its help, Qi Wu It will be extremely difficult for Zuo Liuying and Mu Xingqiu to defeat them.
He had to do something.
Zhou Qianhui took out a copper coin from the Qiankun bag and cast several spells on it with his other hand. He deliberately slowed down his gestures so that everyone could see clearly, "A clairvoyant, I blessed it with ten Explosion spell, they will activate automatically after half an hour."
The explosion spell is not very profound, and all Taoist priests can recognize it. It is blessed with an ordinary magic weapon to make the spell occur at regular intervals. This trick is more difficult, and most Taoist priests cannot do it, but it can be seen that what Zhou Qianhui said is not true. Xu, they just don't understand the purpose of Yashan Taoist priest's move.
"I'm here, voluntarily accepting the invasion of the demon species, and then I will swallow the clairvoyance and die with it in half an hour."
As soon as these words came out, the demon-invading Taoist priests who had been irritable and restless just now calmed down.
"Please ask any fellow Taoist to take action, and then we will continue to clear the magic tree. It is too dangerous for ordinary Taoist priests to do this. Note that Taoist priests can cast spells from a distance, but it may affect the stability of Amber. Things are all coming together. Only we are the best."
The Taoist priests remained silent, and no one took action.
Amber began to vibrate violently again, and Zhou Qianhui flew towards the tree tower. There were demon seeds in the tree, and he could be directly attacked.
A head was blocking the front, and the bald man spread out three strands of hair, like a strange-looking spider, with a slightly excited expression, "I am Mu Songxuan, a disciple of Pangshan. I am young and ignorant, but I have something to say, that is ……that is……"
When the bald man got excited, he lost his usual sharp tongue. He turned his head suddenly, shot a red light at the tree tower which was returning to its original shape, and shouted: "The devil wants me to sleep, but I won't sleep!"
The demon-invading Taoist priests resumed their attack on the tree tower. Zhou Qianhui held the copper coins and was a little confused for a moment. A demon-invading Taoist priest said to him: "We need a sober Taoist priest now."
Zhou Qianhui nodded and put away the copper coins, but did not cancel the blessing spell on it. The first bronze mirror had been destroyed, so he summoned the second one and continued to illuminate the amber.
"Zuo Liuying stopped. He was helping Mu Xingqiu. He put one hand on the sword and used the other hand to cast spells on Qi Wushang, but his spells always went to one side. Be careful, the sword-washing pool... the tree tower ! The tree tower can protect you."
The Taoist priest immediately stood in several circles in the air around the remaining tree tower, arms linked, and one foot in contact with the branches and leaves of the magic tree.
Zhou Qianhui and Yin Buchen were hiding in the circle.
Zhou Qianhui carefully avoided the magic tree and refused to touch even the leaves. However, Yin Buchen held on to a branch tightly, hoping to get a "magic luck", but for some reason, the demon did not want to enter him. His body and even the branches were shaking, as if he didn't like being held by the half-demon.
"What you said just now is really good. If you really volunteered to be invaded by demons, I would admire you even more..."
No one noticed the straw hat lying at the bottom of the pit. Although it was cracked, it was not shattered in the strong air current.
The tree tower and the Taoist priests are fine. They don't even need to cast spells to resist. The airflow will automatically get out of the way of the magic tree. However, there is also a disadvantage. Contact with the magic tree makes the Taoist priests' newly determined hearts waver again. The magic tree is exerting strength on them. A powerful influence, everyone's mind is filled with thousands of thoughts, the reasons for giving up on exterminating demons are one after another, each one is so unquestionable, and the Yashan Taoist priest Zhou Qianhui, who is protected by them, looks more and more like him. He is a hypocritical villain with ulterior motives.
The bald man had a complete demon seed in his mind, but he was the first to leave the tree tower and said loudly: "Let's start the work, Taoist priests, let's spank the demon tree and let it know that we are not easy to bully."
All the invading Taoist priests left the tree tower, their minds restored to their original state, and they cast spells on the tree tower again.
Zhou Qianhui continued to monitor the situation inside Amber and kept reporting to others, "So, Amber obeyed Qi Wushang's wishes and deflected the spells of Zuo Liuying and Mu Xingqiu, so they kept attacking Missed the target. Fortunately, Qi Wushang won the sword-washing pool, but he didn't know how to do it and couldn't control it well..."
Yin Buchen flew to the Yashan Taoist priest, coughed twice, and whispered: "The Taoist priests are killing the demon tree, but the demon tree is their only barrier - aren't they digging their own graves?"
"That's right." If it weren't for the special circumstances, Zhou Qianhui wouldn't want to talk to this half-demon at all, so he answered rather briefly.
"Wouldn't it be easier to just cut off the transparent root and connect Mu Songxuan to it?" Yin Bu Shen heard the other party's coldness and continued to come up with ideas.
Zhou Qianhui stared closely at the situation inside Amber, "No, most of the power of the Demonic Tree is used to control Amber. This gives us an opportunity. If we cut off the roots now, the Demonic Tree can deal with it with all its strength. The Taoist priest will be reconnected with the broken root later.”
"Oh, I understand. The magic tree couldn't bear to part with the amber, but instead killed itself. Haha, it's quite interesting."
"Be careful!" Zhou Qianhui warned, and Qi Wushang used the sword washing pool to send out an angry wave.
This time the angry sea tide was different from the previous ones, and it did not avoid the tree tower.
Qi Wushang sensed the crisis in the tree tower and would rather destroy most of the demon tree than kill the Taoist priests first.
With a bang, blood-red air swept over, and the Taoist priests surrounding the tree tower were blown into the sky. The remaining parts of the magic tree on the ground were instantly turned into branches and leaves, and more than half of the dense roots were lost, but that The transparent roots are still there, still connected to the rest of the root system.
The Taoist priests lost all protection. The angry sea wave was not just a current of air, but its power penetrated the three fields, and even the method of fundamental hiding could not stop it.
Zhou Qianhui could no longer hide behind, so he rushed to the front with all his strength, summoning more than a dozen magic weapons, hoping to block him for a moment, but he was only a Xingluo Taoist priest, and even Qi Wushang could only use the sword-washing pool. Some of the power was too strong for him.
The magic weapon was swept up into the sky like a leaf. Zhou Qianhui himself could not stay where he was. He was blown back continuously. Niwan Palace, Jiang Palace, and Xiadantian were like thousands of needles and thorns, behind him, holding hands. The demon-invading Taoist priests were like a kite string that could break at any time. It was only the resistance of the Yashan Taoist priests that prevented them from being blown away.
It was at this time that Zuo Liuying's straw hat started to fly again. It was an ordinary mundane object, coming from the hands of an old man from the imperial capital, but at this time it had to resist the spell cast by the Taoist treasure.
It once withstood the raging tide outside a demon city, but at that time Zuo Liuying was casting spells under the straw hat, and now it only has a little magic power.
There was a soft pop sound, and the straw hat broke into hundreds of pieces just as it rose in front of Zhou Qianhui. However, these fragments did not fly away with the airflow, but went against the trend, constantly breaking into smaller pieces of grass.
When the angry sea tide passed, the grass clippings burned into ashes and disappeared completely.
The Taoist priests were still frightened, but the influence of the demonic tree was even smaller. They immediately cast spells and attacks on the remaining roots of the demonic tree without any need to greet them.
"Zuo Liuying knows that he wears a straw hat to protect us, but what are the Yashan Zhushen Taoist priests doing?" Baldy asked angrily while emitting red light, "They can still help even if they are hundreds of miles away. "
The Taoist priest Zhushen did have this ability. Zhou Qianhui answered many questions, but he couldn't give an answer to this one. Although he was the head of Yashan's Department of Divine Engineering, he could only obey the orders of the Taoist priest Zhushen. He didn't even know about Yashan. Where are the two Taoist priests with the highest mountain realm at this moment?
Several Taoist priests looked at Zhou Qianhui, but he could only pretend not to hear Bald Man's words, and summoned a bronze mirror to shine on the amber. He immediately realized that something was wrong, "Mu Xingqiu was injured. He let go of his sword and was drifting." Meng Yuanhou in Xianghu Center... Zuo Liuying can't hold on any longer!"
Amber is like a biased parent, Qi Wushang is the favored child who is getting more and more comfortable, but Zuo Liuying and Mu Xingqiu are struggling.
The bald man was stunned when he heard the words. The magic eyes on his head no longer emitted red light. Suddenly he rushed towards the roots of the magic tree like crazy, biting loudly, and he was about to bite the transparent root. The other Taoist priests Help him clear away the few remaining stumps.
Suddenly, the transparent root broke. Unwilling to be controlled by the head, it automatically broke into dozens of pieces, and the part deep into the amber was spit out.
Following the spitted out transparent root, a thin arm stretched out from the amber, holding a basin made of white jade.
