Chapter 0901 The Revealed Beastmaster
Xin Youtao was in high spirits and even suspected that he was possessed by a demon.
Today, he is not the prince of Xijie Kingdom who is protected by his sister. He is not a soldier fighting under a certain commander. He is not the chief talisman master of Longbinhui. For the first time in history, he has to face a powerful enemy alone without any strong force in front of him. There are no soldiers behind him, but there is a city and nearly a million lives pressing on him.
Mu Xingqiu's whereabouts are unknown, Xiao Qingtao is looking for Mu Dong'er's body, the so-called secret protector has refused to show up, and Queen Xun's intelligence is even more useless at this time. This is the situation that Xin Youtao fears most, and also The most powerful enemy is more powerful than the nearly a hundred beast monsters in the distance.
He fought against this fear with excitement, imagining that he was a giant standing tall, swinging long whips, fighting with a group of rats, but this was not enough, the fear had existed for a long time, and excitement alone could not suppress it. , he focused all his attention on casting spells, like an artist walking on a tightrope blindfolded, thinking about nothing else except the next step he was about to take.
The observatory is usually guarded by one Talisman Master, but in wartime it must be operated by at least ten Talisman Masters. Xin Youtao can't help but be a little confused, but he likes to be in a hurry. In this way, he no longer has to think. You have to pay attention to each flying talisman and calculate the actions and reactions at the next moment.
Without the protection or suppression of Taoism, the strength of humans and demons has increased significantly in these years. Humans have lost their support and have to practice hard, while demons have finally obtained a safe environment and can imitate the structure of Taoism. Systematic training.
Of course, there are also various spells and sorcery that Mu Xingqiu selflessly gifted.
The demon mountains, demon fire, and demon hail unleashed by nearly a hundred beast demons were enough to put the giant demon king to shame. The endless flow of exquisite talismans in the observatory also exceeded the imagination of Long Binhui twenty years ago.
Like all fighting arts, as time goes by, more and more out-of-control spells and sorcery are lost. At first, they all dissipate in the air. Slowly, the remnants increase and fall to the ground, causing explosions and flames. There are many private houses outside the Imperial City, and most of the residents are in a coma just like the city. They have no way to escape the disaster from heaven, and Xin Youtao can't help them.
There are seven bronze talisman portals in the observatory. They are all open at this time. The talismans that Long Binhui has accumulated for a long time continue to pour out from them like swarms of bats, forming seven slender and soft arms, which can be used to deal with a large number of incoming magic spells. fighting.
The magic weapon formation that Xiao Qingtao had previously arranged has been utilized to the extreme. Many magic weapons such as swords, rulers, Ruyi, beads, mirrors, tripods, etc. are burning red with flames. The lower-grade magic weapons also have poor endurance. , the first to break and fall.
The beast monsters are approaching step by step and are attacking the observatory. They are not in a hurry to destroy the imperial capital, but want to get rid of the only resister first.
The observatory was trembling, and the entire imperial capital was trembling. Those who were asleep became the lucky ones, and did not have to endure the panic of impending disaster. On the contrary, the few who were awake were terrified and did not even dare to go out to see where the danger came from.
"Make humans pay the price!" Pei Zihan's voice came with the sorcery. He originally had deep wariness and hatred for humans, but becoming a demon merged these two emotions into one, and greatly enhanced his power. , "Take back all the land of the demon clan!"
Xin Youtao wanted to say something, but the sacrificial talisman occupied all of his attention, and he had no time to formulate clever and cruel words. Moreover, there were not many listeners in the huge imperial capital. He gave up the idea and offered more talismans to answer the beast demon. provocation.
The battle became more intense.
Xiao Qingtao flew back once and hurriedly replenished some magic weapons to the divine weapon formation, and also applied some layers of protection to the houses outside the city. Although it wouldn't last long, it was better than nothing.
The two of them didn't exchange a word. They glanced at each other and then went about their own business. Just such a look was enough to reaffirm the faltering fighting spirit in their hearts.
Through the talismans, Xin Youtao noticed a batch of abnormal witchcraft, which were more ethereal and difficult to capture. Some even passed through the battlefield and approached the observatory. He hurriedly changed the talismans in the two bronze talisman portals to deal with the obvious Demonic illusion.
The remaining half-demon from the Battle of Wangshan has always been one of the key defense targets of the Long Bin Society.
As expected, the last batch of more than a hundred half-demon came to kill them. They did not receive orders or summons, but found them themselves after smelling the scent of the demon species. These half-demon once met Shen Hao and Yishi Jun in their hiding place. As soon as they found out that they were no match, they immediately ran away. Shen Hao and Yishi Jun did not pursue them. They just wanted to find clues to the demon soul.
In fact, it was these half-demon that led the two of them to the Imperial Capital. Half-demon was extremely sensitive to demon species and could smell the slightest scent even from thousands of miles away. But they did not dare to get too close to the Imperial Capital, and could only linger in the distance. They did not dare to participate in the battle until they were convinced that the Imperial Capital was really guarding the void.
"Demon King, your servant is here." Half-demon Li Qingzhu shouted loudly. He was absent-minded about the fighting and couldn't tell the difference between demon seeds and demon souls. "We smelled your breath and came here because of it. Why did you disappear again?" What did we do wrong? Please punish us severely and don’t shy away..."
Li Qingzhu's plaintive voice was like crying, and the other half-demon roared in response, like a group of lost beasts looking for their mother.
Their spells would not be weakened at all. The ethereal spells complemented the powerful attacks of the beast monsters. Xin Youtao's pressure increased sharply. There were enough talismans stored in the observatory, but he alone could not fully use them. He could not give full play to them. strength.
"Shut up!" Xin Youtao shouted. He really couldn't stand the half-demon's voice. It was even more stressful than the huge demon mountain.
Of course, the half-demon would not obey his orders. Xin Youtao, who was slightly confused, became even more busy, and fewer talismans poured out from the seven bronze talisman portals.
At the critical moment, a pair of soft palms covered Xin Youtao's ears, injecting two streams of cool air. Xin Youtao's body trembled slightly, and his mood returned to calm. He did not need the heart of a Taoist priest, all he needed was calmness.
Xiao Qingtao stood behind Xin Youtao and softly recited meditation scriptures. She learned this from Fangfang. It was of a very low level, but it had miraculous effects on Xin Youtao.
Xiao Qingtao flew away again. Time passed little by little, but she still couldn't find Mu Dong'er's body. The palace, private houses, military camps... She searched many places, but they couldn't find one-tenth of the ones in the imperial capital. The key is that she didn't find Mu Dong'er's body at all. I don’t know what the characteristics of a body that has temporarily lost its soul are.
She came here to see how the void on the table was doing.
It was still dark, but it seemed brighter.
Mr. Qin was still sitting on the stool, but he was three steps away from the table. "It's earlier than I expected." He said with his back to Xiao Qingtao.
"Mu Xingqiu..."
"They are okay for the time being, it's Taoism. The power of Taoism was originally used to protect the void where Taoism was hiding, but now it has entered another void." Mr. Qin paused for a moment, kicked hard on the ground with both feet, and even people and stools Taking a step back, "Mu Xingqiu and the others are fighting Dao Jie, attracting more power, and Dao Tong Void has become unstable."
Xiao Qingtao seemed to understand, but when she heard that Mu Xingqiu was still fighting, she was slightly relieved, "Do we still need Mu Dong'er's body?"
"Well, I must."
"Will the Taoist priests come out early?" Xiao Qingtao had a hope in her heart, thinking that she could persuade the Taoist priests to help.
Mr. Qin still didn't look back, "The Taoist calamity is out of control, little girl. They are no longer the protectors of the Taoist order. It will be a miracle if any Taoist priest can escape."
Xiao Qingtao's expression changed, but she immediately put away her emotions. It was not just Taoism that needed to protect herself. The first thing she had to do was to protect herself and the people around her. "I can't find a physical body. It won't work like this. I need to help."
"I have nothing more to tell you."
"There is one or several beast masters hiding in the imperial capital, and they refuse to come out no matter how I call. Do you have any idea?"
"The beast master." Mr. Qin has never seen the rise of the beast master, but based on the few words he heard during these days, he can guess the direction of the beast master's practice. "The demons have gone through untold hardships to become the beast master. The destroyed beasts have now become a force - the fire will never be extinguished and the demon species will last forever. These are probably the only two things that cannot be destroyed in this world. "
Xiao Qingtao listened patiently. Mr. Qin was stunned for a while and finally said: "I don't know about the beast masters, but I think their strength lies in the alien beasts. If you can't find anyone, you can try to find someone." Looking for strange beasts, they..."
"I know." Xiao Qingtao rushed out of the tavern, complaining that she had not asked Mr. Qin for advice.
Alien beasts and spiritual beasts have powerful and simple power. Compared with practitioners, their biggest weakness is their lack of self-control. In Mr. Qin’s previous words, this is an army without a commander. It may be honest, or There may be burning, killing and looting, no one can predict.
The beast masters sacrificed their own practice in exchange for the command of these simple forces. However, in just twenty or thirty years, they could not fully master the power of alien and spiritual beasts.
The animal nature is still there, but it has been cleverly hidden. All Xiao Qingtao has to do is to peel off this layer of protection.
She summoned two bronze mirrors, one in each hand, and cast a spell to find the beast monster. She was holding her breath in her heart. No matter who the beast master was hiding in the imperial capital, he should not hide away at this time.
A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Qingtao finally found a clue. At least one strange beast was following her not far behind. She immediately seized this opportunity, turned around suddenly, retracted a bronze mirror, summoned her magic sword, and cast a powerful five-element spell, completely treating the opponent as an enemy.
There was a crisp bang, and a ball of light burst into the air slightly higher than the roof, and quickly disappeared, revealing the hidden person inside.
Neither the beast master nor the alien beast expected this blow, and they were floating in the air blankly.
Xiao Qingtao was greatly disappointed. The beast master she had been looking forward to for so long turned out to be Yin Buchen.
She seemed to have accidentally opened the box of "disappointment". Yin Buchen and the monkey-faced Feixiao were still in a daze. Suddenly, a bright light appeared in the tavern and shot straight into the sky. Even the third eye could not see the end.
There were a series of explosions outside the city, and Xin Youtao could no longer hold on.
