Chapter 559 A Big Harvest
Demon cultivators above the Jindan stage will basically leave a backup plan for themselves outside, preparing several low-level cultivators' bodies with restrictions. As long as their souls are not destroyed and they escape, they will have a chance to take over their bodies and cultivate again.
If you want to completely kill demon cultivators above the Jindan level at once, even if ordinary Yuanying cultivators take action, they still need to cooperate with some means to deal with the demon cultivators' souls, otherwise there is still a high probability that these demon cultivators' souls will escape.
Hearing a hint of worry in Zhao Menglian's tone, Yun Xinhe on the side immediately responded with a smile: "Haha! This demon's body has been destroyed, and his soul has fallen into this Tongtian Tower. It must be difficult for him to get out. Even if he can take over the body and cultivate again, it will be difficult to recover his cultivation without a hundred years. In fact, it is not a big deal. Don't worry too much, Brother Zhao!"
"What Brother Yun said is right. This Tongtian Tower is only opened once every three hundred years. If this demon's soul can't escape, it will definitely be trapped inside!" Jin Ziyuan also echoed after hearing this.
"I hope so!" Zhao Menglian smiled and nodded slightly, then stepped forward to take the storage magic tool on the waist of the demon cultivator and the two magic weapons that fell on the ground, and cast a spell to release the fire in his body to directly burn the body of the demon cultivator.
When Zhao Menglian and others rushed down from the top of the canyon to support, Qingluo Zhenren and Zhang Tieyang had just solved the opponent and cut off the head of another Jindan second-level demon cultivator.
"Fellow Daoist Song, I have no way to repay you for saving my life just now. Please accept my greeting first!" Zhang Tieyang, who had just finished fighting, stepped forward and said with gratitude when he saw Song Qingming's figure.
Seeing Zhang Tieyang about to bow to him in front of everyone, Song Qingming hurried forward to support him, waved his hand and said: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, you are too polite. Now that we are in this dangerous place, we should help each other. Don't take it too seriously."
Seeing this scene, Zhao Fenglian immediately smiled and said: "Junior Brother Song is right. We just came in and encountered such a powerful demon cultivator. It can be seen that this place is more dangerous than we imagined. If we don't have a united mind when encountering such a thing, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get out smoothly.
Besides, eliminating demons and defending the Tao is the duty of people like us who practice Taoism. No matter who stands on the side of eradicating demon cultivators, we should fully support them."
Jin Ziyuan and the other three on the side also laughed and echoed, and Zhang Tieyang, who was excited, smiled and nodded, and thanked Song Qingming a few more words.
After dealing with the corpse of the demon cultivator, in order to prevent the demon cultivators from receiving reinforcements, everyone, led by Zhao Menglian, quickly left the place and found a relatively hidden cave to rest for a while.
In this battle, except for Jin Ziyuan who was slightly injured, the others were slightly injured, which would not have much impact on their own strength. After taking healing pills and recuperating for a few days, they would basically be healed as before.
After staying in the cave for half an hour, when everyone had recovered their mana, Zhao Menglian took out the storage magic tools that had just been obtained from the two demon cultivators.
Everyone took turns to fight and spent half a day practicing, and finally forced open the two storage magic tools and poured out everything inside.
"Haha! These two guys are so rich, this is really surprising, it seems that we have also gained a lot this time!"
After seeing the various precious spiritual objects and spiritual stones worth tens of thousands of yuan in front of them, Song Qingming and others also showed a happy look on their faces and various surprised voices.
"Isn't this the life magic weapon of Daoist Qingyuan, the Nine Palaces Flowing Cloud Drum? Why is it on this demon? Could it be that Daoist Qingyuan has..."
When seeing a golden drum magic weapon among these things, Zhang Tieyang on the side suddenly shouted out in shock, and the joy on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by an unbelievable look. It is obvious that he knows the original owner of this magic weapon!
According to what Zhang Tieyang said before, he also made an appointment with a companion to enter the "Babel Tower" together this time. Seeing his excited look, it seems that he should be the owner of this magic weapon.
Since seeing this life magic weapon on the other party here, everyone can guess without thinking that his friend must have died and fell into the hands of this group of demon cultivators.
"Daoist Zhang, we just killed this demon, which can be regarded as revenge for your friend. Don't be too sad, please be sad!" Seeing this scene, everyone was also a little surprised. As the leader of the team, Zhao Menglian quickly spoke to comfort the other party.
In addition to the magic weapons they used, the two demon cultivators also had many other precious spiritual objects, as well as some magic weapons and instruments that had not been sacrificed. These were obviously looted from other cultivators after they killed them.
The magic weapons used by demon cultivators are generally infected by demonic energy. Before the demonic energy in the magic weapons is completely expelled, ordinary cultivators cannot use them at will. Otherwise, once the demonic energy backfires on the body, it may slowly fall into the path of demons and become a demon cultivator.
In order to prevent these magic weapons from being lost and any unexpected mistakes, Zhao Menglian decided to seal them all with spiritual talismans, and take them back to the sect to expel the demonic energy and deal with them later. The other several magic cultivation techniques were destroyed directly in public!
After Zhao Menglian discussed with everyone, the remaining magic tools, spirit stones and other spiritual objects that were not contaminated by the evil spirit were directly distributed to them according to their merits.
In this battle, Song Qingming did a lot of work because he broke the opponent's formation and reversed the situation. He was recognized by everyone. Not only did he get more than 6,000 spirit stones, but he also got a good quality low-grade flying sword magic weapon and several low-value second-level spiritual objects.
Although Song Qingming also lost a precious third-level low-grade defensive spirit talisman in the previous battle to rescue Zhang Tieyang, he has now obtained so many things, which has already made up for the losses in Song Qingming's previous battles. He is very satisfied with this.
"Fellow Daoist Song, you also used up a high-level spiritual talisman to save me. Please accept these spiritual stones. Just consider it as a token of my appreciation. If you think highly of me, please do not refuse. From now on, we will be friends of life and death!"
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Zhang!" Seeing Zhang Tieyang handing over dozens of medium-grade spiritual stones, Song Qingming thought about it and did not bother to be polite with him. He accepted them generously.
When Zhang Tieyang joined the team before, he was very clear about everyone's attitude and thoughts towards him. Zhang Tieyang fought hard in front of everyone in several battles in order to win everyone's trust and get closer to Song Qingming and others.
However, he had only joined the team for half a day after all. It was definitely unlikely that he would gain everyone's trust so quickly.
Facing the fierce attack of the Jindan Demon Cultivator's magic weapon before, if Zhang Tieyang was hit head-on by the opponent, even if he did not die, he would definitely be seriously injured. At that time, Zhang Tieyang did feel a little desperate.
He also didn't expect that Song Qingming would be willing to decisively use a precious third-level defensive talisman in order to rescue a companion he had just met and had a general relationship with.
If it were Jin Ziyuan and the others, even if they saw Zhang Tieyang dead, they would not use this life-saving trump card on him. This is also what made Zhang Tieyang particularly moved by Song Qingming afterwards.
No matter what Zhang Tieyang thought in his heart, Song Qingming chose to save him at that time, which was indeed more for the overall situation. After all, everyone was fighting against the demon cultivators together at that time. In the dangerous situation of having a common enemy, Song Qingming naturally would not treat Zhang Tieyang as an outsider.
Although a third-level low-grade defensive talisman is indeed a precious spiritual object, Song Qingming has accumulated a lot of spiritual objects above the third level in his hands over the years, and using one is not a big deal for him now.
Therefore, this third-level talisman was not as important to Song Qingming as Zhang Tieyang thought. When he saw Zhang Tieyang in danger, in order to consider the overall situation and end the battle earlier, Song Qingming did not think too much and decisively helped him out of danger.
In general, there was not much loss on his side, and two other magic cultivators were left behind. Everyone got a lot of good things. Song Qingming's decision at that time was good in the end.
As for Zhang Tieyang's gratitude afterwards and the spiritual stones he took out, it was a reasonable surprise for Song Qingming.
"There are still many masters active outside now, and Junior Brother Jin also needs some time to recuperate. I think it's better to rest here for a day, and we will set off to other places to look for spiritual objects tomorrow!"
After experiencing the life-and-death battle with the magic cultivators just now, everyone has a new understanding of the dangerous situation in the "Babel Tower". After hearing Zhao Menglian's safe suggestion, they all nodded and agreed immediately. Even Jin Ziyuan, who has always been a little anxious, did not have other opinions this time.
——
Half a day later, in a dense forest near a teleportation array on the third floor of the "Babel Tower", a mysterious man in a black robe came here carefully and observed the surroundings carefully. After seeing the three figures standing in front of him, he immediately walked over with a look of joy.
"Master!"
After carefully bowing to the young man with his hands behind his back in the middle of the three, the black-robed man immediately retreated to the side respectfully.
The young man turned around, showing a frosty face, and asked: "Why are you here alone? Haven't they already joined you?"
Hearing the question from the young man in front of him, the black-robed man also flashed a slight panic in his eyes, and then immediately answered: "Reporting to the master, we met a group of people below and failed, and then I and several junior brothers were separated again!"
