Chapter 0607: The Formation Closes
Jin Cui quickly proved that she was not a replica of Mu Xingqiu.
Unlike the young horse herders who came out of the small town, he was a born king. A few years ago, when even being a brocade horse seemed too young, he defeated several competitors, including the leader of the horse herd, and became the spiritual king. The king of demons.
Just because he lost the position of King of Spirit Demons to Yang Qingyin does not mean that he will become an ordinary demon clan from now on. He reawakened the fighting spirit in the hearts of the demons in Ice City, and rekindled the ambition of the king in his own heart. .
Jin Cu stood on the top of a hill in the southeast of Ice City. He wore a towering iron helmet on his head. It was not decorated with horns, but more than a dozen gorgeous feathers. The armor on his body was very simple, with only a few pieces passing by. The bone armor blessed by magic protects key parts such as the shoulders and chest, while other parts of the body are only covered by linen clothes, or even exposed at all.
He didn't even wear shoes and stood barefoot in the snow. Like all spirit monsters, he didn't like to be restrained. If possible, they would rather be naked.
Since the helmet covered most of his face, Jin Cuo now looked nothing like Mu Xingqiu.
Next to him and slightly lower behind him, stood a group of monsters, some tall or short, all with respectful expressions and not even breathing too loudly. No one could tell that they were uncivilized people from the bitter cold land in the north. Monsters, some of whom can't even speak common human language.
Shen Shang stopped halfway up the mountain and looked up at the monsters on the top of the mountain. "What a strange thing. The Ancestor Peak collapsed, but it gave the Pangshan spirit beast a chance. I am not a Taoist priest of Yin and Yang, but I have a premonition." , Jin Cuhui is a great demon king. Have you heard? They call him the "Fan King" now. Even though the name is very vulgar, the demon clan sincerely thinks that this king's title is very noble. It represents my gratitude.”
Food itself is not enough to generate so much and deep gratitude. The key is that in the process, the demons get rid of their depression and climb from the bottom of the valley helplessly waiting for death to the ground of strong survival. Therefore, it is natural for them to follow the Rice King. Keep moving forward and keep climbing to the peak of fighting your enemies.
"I have a feeling... this battle with Bingkui will be difficult," Mu Xingqiu said.
"Haha, you are too strict." Shen Shang shook his head with a smile and walked up the mountain.
The demons made way for a narrow passage. Jin Cuu knew who was coming without turning around. He pointed into the distance, "About noon, the last few corpse pits appeared at the same time. Three teams of demon soldiers have been patrolling there. But they didn't find the body pit until dark, and they came back immediately to report it. They were frightened. "
What the demon soldiers are afraid of is not the corpse, but the fear emanating from the corpse pit.
This is a bright moonlit night. The demon clan has good night vision and can roughly see the situation several miles away. Mu Xingqiu, who has both the demon pill and the third eye, can clearly see the scene forty or fifty miles away. scene.
Monster corpses wrapped in ice lay scattered on the ground in several places. They had just died and were not yet covered by snow.
"I feel that the magic power is not flowing smoothly." Shen Shang twisted his shoulders, as if this could shake off the cobwebs blocking the magic power.
"It's okay here. If you go two or three miles ahead, you won't be able to use sorcery and spells at all." Jin Cuo turned his head, and the eyes behind his helmet were as bright as the full moon in the sky. "This is the star-shifting formation. When the entire Ice City When both Han and Langyuan are covered by the power of the formation, and all sorcery and spells are imprisoned, it’s time for Bing Kui to appear.”
The word "Bingkui" was like a magic spell. The monster clan leaders swayed slightly and made uh-huh sounds in their throats. Jin Cu did not give in anymore. He had already gained a firm foothold in this invisible battle. , ready to launch a counterattack, he pointed to the corpse pit in the distance and said:
"Do you feel it? There are slaughtered monsters everywhere around Ice City. They can't live in peace even after death. They are still performing magic spells on behalf of the murderers, releasing curses, spreading fear, and making the living monsters lose their fighting spirit."
Jin Cu finally turned around and faced the leader of the demon clan. They were also looking at him, like a tired climber who needed a hand from the forerunners.
"So, don't say that the death of the demon clan is meaningless. What is left by waiting for death is depression and panic, but what is left by dying in battle is hope! Let Bingkui come, even if I am killed, I will still stare into their eyes! "
"Bingkui..." A demon leader whispered these two words, like blowing a breath on a mature dandelion, slowly and carefully.
"Bing Kui." Several demons said together, shaking their heads and looking left and right. They found that their heads were still there and there were no inexplicable wounds on their bodies. They became more courageous.
"Bingkui!" Jin Cuu shouted loudly, and all the demons shouted together. The voices gathered together and spread far away, like a strong wind passing through the snow.
This is not a begging or appeal, but a challenge. By calling terrible names, the demons seem to gain the power of powerful enemies.
Not long after, a loud response came from the demon camp at the foot of the mountain. It was more demons shouting "Bingkui". The pronunciation was distorted, like the sound of wind blowing in the mountains and forests, like a giant beast waking up from a dream. The roar as it comes.
"Get ready to fight." Jin Cu said.
The demon clan leaders turned around and ran down the mountain to convey King Fan's latest order to all the demon clan.
Shen Shang's eyes were also shining, and he said to Mu Xingqiu: "You can't find such a person among Taoist priests."
Mu Xingqiu smiled slightly. He had experienced the experience of boiling blood, and also had the painful memory after cooling down. However, Shen Shang was right. There was no person like Jinchu in the Taoist tradition, and Mu Xingqiu himself was not one of them. After all, he was also influenced by practice. Long-term meditation had already smoothed his edges and corners. Even in the most exciting moments, he remained somewhat calm.
Jinchu took off his helmet and glanced at his crystal eyes. He didn't seem to welcome Yi Shijun's help. "Children under the age of fifteen will stay in the underground of Bingcheng. All other demon tribes, regardless of gender, will participate in the war. Since they can walk all the way from their hometown to Bingcheng, they can pick up weapons."
Simple and direct tactics, Jinchu felt that this was enough.
"Do you know when and from which direction Bingkui will attack?" Shen Shang asked.
Jinchu was silent for a while, "If Bingkui is really as powerful as the rumors say, if he still has a little honor, he will attack from the front. We will fight in Langyuan, which is fair to both sides, and no one will have the advantage of terrain."
"Hehe, Bingkui is neither human nor demon. Honor is as boring to them as the ice and snow under their feet. I really should make you a crown, all made of pride." Shen Shang gestured the shape of a crown with his hands and put it on Jinchu's head symbolically.
Jinchu snorted, "Then let Bingkui come. The demons will gather together. Wherever Bingkui appears, we will support him."
"This time the fighting style is a bit interesting, but you still need a more rigorous plan. How to distribute more than 10,000 demon soldiers, how to respond, and how to support each other as quickly as possible, this is very particular. Bingkui has a formation, and we can also have it..."
Shen Shang is short, but his voice is mature and steady. Jinchu can't help but bend down to listen to his suggestions on arranging troops.
"I'll go outside and take a look." Mu Xingqiu said. Shen Shang and Jinchu were chatting enthusiastically, and just nodded at him.
Mu Xingqiu rose into the air, but he didn't fly far before he felt that his magic power and demon power were becoming more and more difficult to operate. He had to land on the ground and walk. Suddenly, a subtle sound came from behind him. He turned around and saw Flea running towards him. Baldy was sitting between the two corners, and the little demon Feifei was on his back.
Qilin was no less proud than Jinchu. Usually, outsiders were not allowed to walk within five steps. Only Mu Xingqiu, Baldy, and Xiaohao could ride on it. This time, it made an exception for a little demon, which surprised Mu Xingqiu.
Feifei was obviously more surprised than Mu Xingqiu, and he was very scared. He flapped his translucent wings desperately, trying to reduce his weight.
"I told Feifei's mother to bring him out to play for a while." Baldy blinked at Mu Xingqiu. He saw that Mu Xingqiu was very interested in Feifei, so he decided to bring him.
Mu Xingqiu was still unsure whether Feifei really had a root of Taoism in his body. Some of his magic power was indeed sucked away, but that could also be some kind of magic that the little demon was born with.
However, since the bald man brought him here, Mu Xingqiu would naturally not chase him away. He just said, "Be careful, don't get too far away from me."
Mu Xingqiu and Flea were both extremely strong. They ran on the ground almost as fast as they flew. They ran dozens of miles in less than half an hour. The little demon Feifei kept holding her breath and her wings never rested. Her black eyes flashed with both fear and envy.
There were a total of seven new corpse pits, filling the last gap in the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi formation surrounding the Ice City. They appeared in broad daylight under the eyes of the patrolling demon soldiers. No one saw where the Ice King came from and where he went.
Mu Xingqiu checked each corpse pit one by one, and finally stopped at the side of a corpse pit with only one corpse.
This demon corpse was different. Other corpses were lying there casually, but it was deliberately placed in the shape of a bow and arrow: its legs were spread to represent the bow, one hand was raised above the head, and the other hand was hanging at the crotch, forming an arrow with the entire upper body, as if it had just been shot.
The arrow pointed to a position slightly west of Bingcheng.
The bald man suddenly spoke, "Don't be afraid, Feifei, with Brother Xiaoqiu here, Bingkui dare not touch you."
Mu Xingqiu was busy checking the corpse pit and forgot about this little demon. Feifei could no longer flap her wings and sat on the flea's back in a daze, with sweat pouring down her little head.
The closer you get to the corpse pit, the stronger the curse is, and the little demon is about to be unable to bear it.
"Go back." Mu Xingqiu has seen too many corpse pits and found no special clues.
The flea turned and ran towards Bingcheng. It found two more nebula tree seeds and ate them happily, not affected by the curse at all.
Mu Xingqiu followed behind, becoming more and more curious about Bingkui's true face. He thought, "I can always see it before I die in battle, right?"
The bald man in front of him started to bark again because the flea was disobedient, moving left and right, and always wanted to jump into the air, as if there was something good in the sky.
The flea would occasionally behave in a childish way, and Mu Xingqiu didn't pay much attention to it, but after a while he felt something was wrong, as if the flea really found something in the air.
Mu Xingqiu sped up and ran beside the flea, looking up. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the night was like a veil, and there was no foreign object flying, but the flea was still chasing after it, with its tongue sticking out, looking greedy.
Mu Xingqiu's heart moved, and he retracted his gaze to look at the nearby area, and the demon pill's left eye used the sky eye to illuminate the details.
Finally, he saw it.
There was a nebula tree seed floating in the air.
