Chapter 0552: Out-of-Control Golem
Countless snow blocks rose from the ground, like hailstones that had reversed their direction, colliding with the normal falling spell rain, creating a large area of steaming water vapor.
The giant of the Fish Dragon Formation and the resurrected golem struggled to survive in this water vapor. The former could only protect himself, while the latter had to fight his way out.
Yang Qingyin stepped on the golem's shoulder, still holding the Laojun Magic Palm in one hand and the Frost Soul Sword in the other. The black silver soul armor under her feet was so hot that it burned her feet, like steel just taken out of the fire, which reminded her of the cultivation life of the Honglu Department. In addition to the Taiyin Fire of Wandi Mountain, the area near the furnace is always scorching. The disciples of the Honglu Department like to be with fire, but they must also learn how to protect themselves.
Yang Qingyin summoned a gem and a palm-sized four-legged tripod, using them to protect her whole body from the pain of heat.
Soon she encountered a new problem: the golem under her feet seemed to be out of control.
Before the silver soul armor covered the whole body of the golem again, Yang Qingyin saw that the wooden statue was becoming full of vitality and flesh and blood, with a firm and majestic look. After sleeping for more than 100,000 years, he seemed to have no confusion at all, and immediately threw himself into the battle, walking around with big strides, opening and closing his arms, as if he was looking for a handy weapon, or as if he was dancing a strange dance, and all kinds of strange sounds came from the armor.
The magic sound is his magic.
But as more and more snow blocks rose from the ground, the resurrected golem became more confident, and faintly resisted the Laojun magic palm in Yang Qingyin's hand.
At first, the snow blocks stirred up by the magic sound carefully avoided the giants of the fish dragon formation, but gradually became indistinguishable from enemies and friends. The golem only wanted to save his own life and had no intention of helping his companions, which was completely contrary to Yang Qingyin's wishes.
"Stop, don't hit your own people! You..." Yang Qingyin took back the word "idiot". After all, the golem was their biggest protector.
The golem obeyed the order, but soon became careless again. The snow blocks hit the giant of the Fish Dragon Formation, like boiling water poured on a person, and immediately burned off a piece of flesh. To the Fish Dragon Formation, it was one or two demons or Taoist priests.
Yang Qingyin gave a clear order again, and the golem only restrained slightly.
"Mu Xingqiu!" Yang Qingyin had to call out his name. She knew too little about the golem. The only means of control was the Laojun Magic Palm. The Frost Soul Sword only provided the golem with more powerful power, but could not tame it.
Mu Xingqiu replaced Xiaohao as the leader of the giant of the Fish Dragon Formation. Through the eyes of the giant, he also discovered the abnormality of the golem, "Move northeast!"
The voice of the giant of the Fish Dragon Formation was very different from that of Mu Xingqiu. Yang Qingyin knew that it was Mu Xingqiu who was speaking, but the northeast was one of the three main sources of Taoist magic. Commanding the golem there was tantamount to a decisive battle with the Taoist.
Yang Qingyin still had a bottom line in her heart. She refused to return to Pangshan and was even willing to control the golem to resist the attack of the Taoist sect, but she never wanted to fight back against the Taoist sect, let alone kill any normal Taoist priests, even if they were killed accidentally.
She hesitated.
"There are many mountains in the northeast. Leave the golem there and let's leave!" Mu Xingqiu had to tell his plan.
Yang Qingyin understood that the Taoist sect would not fight the golem at close range. They would retreat to a farther distance. With the cover of the mountains and the attraction of the golem, the besieged humans and monsters might still have a chance to escape.
Not knowing what the golem under his feet would think after hearing this plan, Yang Qingyin pointed the Laojun magic palm in his hand to the northeast.
The golem obeyed the order without hesitation, but the way it obeyed was beyond the expectations of Mu and Yang.
The land of monsters is full of unclean air. Even the Taoist priests cannot cast spells at will. The teleportation distance is usually only tens of miles, but the unclean air has no effect on the golem. On the contrary, the golem is like a fish in water.
The golem that had just been "resurrected" teleported, and it traveled more than ninety miles in just one use. If the Daoist sect had not arranged some defenses out of habit, it could have moved farther.
The giant of the Fish Dragon Formation and the fleas and Gan Zhiquan who did not enter the formation were also taken away. The formation composed of a group of humans and monsters who did not know each other, let alone trust each other, was originally unstable. After a powerful teleportation spell, the Fish Dragon Formation fell apart.
"Where is this?"
"Escaped?"
The monsters who fell from the giant asked in a panic, not noticing that hundreds of Taoists stopped on the hillside a few miles away.
It was late at night, and the colorful clouds in the distance were about to dissipate. The Taoist disciples nearby were just about to continue casting spells in the air, and suddenly, the target was in sight.
This was a completely unexpected confrontation. Mu Xingqiu and Yang Qingyin both thought that the golem would slowly move forward and force the Taoist disciples back, but they did not expect that the two sides would be so close.
The disciples of the Taoist sect could not have imagined that, according to reason, there should be Taoist restrictions within a hundred miles around the spirit demon camp, especially considering that the Taoist priests who invaded the demons might have the help of Zuo Liuying, the restrictions should be stronger, but the magic of the golem must be very different from that of the Taoist sect, and most of these restrictions did not take effect.
The only one who was not in chaos was the golem. He raised his arms and slightly raised his head, as if praying to the sky. The palms wrapped in black armor turned red like burning iron.
After sleeping for more than 100,000 years, his fighting spirit did not decrease at all.
"Stop!" Yang Qingyin was the first to react, and shouted loudly, pointing the Laojun magic palm to another direction.
The golem paused, and the redness of the hand armor also weakened, as if it wanted to turn.
A few miles away, more than ten Xingluo Taoist priests cast spells at the same time, and long dragons of magic of various colors flew over. The golem roared in its helmet, and the magic sound was fanned out, blocking the magic of the Xingluo Taoist priests a mile away, and then his hand armor became like burning charcoal again.
He resisted the control of Laojun's magic palm. No matter how loud Yang Qingyin shouted or how clear the order was, he refused to turn around.
This is where Shen Hao and others are.
Shen Jixian, the head of the Five Elements Department, changed his face suddenly. There are more than 400 Taoist priests here, including 14 Xingluo Taoist priests, but no Zhushen Taoist priests are sitting in the formation.
Before the siege began, everyone thought that Zuo Liuying would be the biggest obstacle in this battle, so the several Zhushen Taoist priests who accompanied him were looking for his whereabouts, thinking that nearly a thousand Taoist priests were enough to easily eliminate all targets, including this demon statue.
"Retreat! Everyone retreat!" Shen Jixian ordered loudly. Whether this was really the resurrection of the demon clan or the wood with magic power, the strength was beyond imagination.
Some low-level Taoists flew up one after another, but more people were hesitant because the fourteen Xingluo Taoists did not move, which made them think that the battle was still going on.
It was too late for everything. The golem had already accumulated strength and was about to deliver a fatal blow. Even the Taoists who flew up could not escape, and it would take some time for the Taoists who were infused with spirits to find that the situation was not right and rush over to support.
The scene was in chaos. Most Taoists and demons did not even figure out what was going on. Some wanted to escape in a panic, or decided to stay and fight, or just wanted to follow their companions...
Yang Qingyin scolded and smashed the helmet of the golem with the Laojun magic palm, but it was useless. The golem was like a vicious dog that had been aroused to fight. It had long ignored the will of its master and only wanted to pounce on its prey and tear it to pieces.
Mu Xingqiu experienced a moment of panic. Like Yang Qingyin, although he had to resist the attack of the Taoist sect, he did not think of killing the disciples of the Taoist sect, especially when he saw Shen Hao.
Shen Hao was standing among the Taoists. He was the only one who didn't hold the main magic weapon in his hand. He looked at the golem that suddenly appeared in surprise. He neither flew up as ordered nor cast a spell to participate in the counterattack.
Mu Xingqiu had experienced various crises and had long since developed a firm will. He quickly got rid of the panic in his heart and began to think about how to deal with it.
When he decided to awaken the golem, he had already reserved a trick, but he didn't expect to use it so soon. Not only did they not get rid of the siege, but they were closer to the Taoist disciples.
But controlling the golem or destroying the golem is the most important thing now. Mu Xingqiu resurrected him and must be responsible for the result.
Mu Xingqiu grabbed the bald man's bun and flew to Yang Qingyin, "Believe me!"
"What?" Yang Qingyin was puzzled.
"You have to believe me, don't resist my spells." Mu Xingqiu landed on the shoulder of the magic armor and stretched out his right thumb to press on Yang Qingyin's forehead.
Should I believe in Mu Xingqiu? While Yang Qingyin was thinking about this question, she had already made a decision in her heart. She did not resist at all, and Santian did not automatically generate the power of protection. She felt that her fundamental method of hiding had probably been destroyed by the demon-transforming pill.
Mu Xingqiu entered Yang Qingyin's mind, but he did not come to find memories, but to send a memory - the entire content of the seven chapters of the Demon Lord's Law.
At the same time, his other hand summoned a black-striped straw hat and buckled it on the bald man's head again.
He didn't know whether this trick would work, just like he didn't know whether he could awaken the golem at the beginning. If Gan Zhiquan's soul hadn't left his body to tell him the correct method, his efforts would have been in vain. This time he was still taking risks.
In addition to taking risks, Mu Xingqiu didn't know what else he had in his hands. He didn't have the strength of a Taoist priest, Zuo Liuying was missing, and the Taoist sect had to put them to death. He could only take risks and fight for his life.
There is never no way out in this world. Even a dead end is a way. This is what Mu Xingqiu thought.
Entering Yang Qingyin's mind was smoother than expected. Mu Xingqiu was even a little surprised, but he didn't have time to think too much and immediately signaled her to cast a spell.
Yang Qingyin was also surprised. She also didn't have time to think about it. She immediately meditated on the whole text.
Mu Xingqiu was also meditating. Their minds seemed to be connected. The speed of meditating did not decrease, but became faster.
The power of the Demon Lord's Righteousness and the Frost Soul Sword flowed into Laojun's magic palm together, and then entered the body of the golem. This time, the magic text did not infuse the Niwan Palace, but went straight to the heart that was only protected by the Silver Soul Armor.
Mu Xingqiu believed that the heart was the biggest weakness of this golem.
