Chapter 946 Earth Sect
Mr. Pi's eyes gradually became sinister, but this only happened for a moment.
Soon his expression calmed down, as if nothing had happened. He took out the compass again and walked in front of the crowd. As always, he observed the formation to identify positions, used the compass to orient himself, and walked forward along the corridor.
Along the way, the corridor was dark and oppressive, and the smell was pungent.
There seems to be an unknown danger lurking in the darkness, and the air is chilly and creepy.
Everyone looked on guard, not daring to slack off at all.
Mr. Pi and others have rich experience and are veterans at this, but because of this, they were very energetic and did not dare to be careless at all along the way.
Seeing this, Mo Hua's thoughts moved slightly:
It seems that there is really an incredible tomb buried under this solitary mountain?
Otherwise, Mr. Pi and the others would never have gone to such great lengths, let alone act as cautiously as if they were facing a formidable enemy...
Mo Hua looked around again, and couldn't help but think of Master Gu's words, and said silently in his heart:
"If there are really large tombs, wouldn't it be possible that there might be 'evil things' that turn into corpses or ghosts?"
This tomb may be more dangerous than I thought...
Mo Hua's heart was slightly shuddered, and he unknowingly moved closer to the tomb robbers, thinking that if his dead Taoist friends were not dead and poor Taoists, there was really any danger, so let these golden elixirs die first.
But fortunately, the rest of the journey was uneventful for the time being.
After walking like this for more than half an hour, the corridor gradually widened, the stone walls became stronger, taller and wider, and soon a huge tomb door appeared in front of them.
As soon as the tomb door came into view, Mo Hua was startled, and then he felt a little scared in his heart, and goosebumps stood up.
Not just because the tomb door is ferocious, strict and terrifying.
It's because this is a...
The forbidden gate of water prison!
The shape of the entire tomb door is almost exactly the same as the prison door he saw in the Water Prison Forbidden Picture on the Water Prison Forbidden Box, the most precious treasure of the Water Prison Gate, which was used to suppress and punish sinners.
The eaves are arched like the fangs of a forbidden beast, and the walls are densely covered with patterns, like the chains of a prison, fitting into each other.
At the two doors, the door knockers looked like vicious beasts that were biting people, frightening Xiaoxiao.
The left and right gates are each engraved with a human figure, with a human body and an animal head, one with the head of an ox, and one with the face of a horse. Their faces are ferocious and majestic. Each of them holds a shackle, tightly tying the tomb door, as if suppressing the things in the tomb and not allowing them to enter the tomb. Escape from the underground.
The entire tomb door exudes gloomy majesty.
Mo Hua knew some of the inside story, so the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became. He never expected that traces of the inheritance of the Water Prison Gate could be seen in the underground cemetery in Gushan.
Mr. Pi and his party did not know the secret of the water prison gate, but looking at the strict tomb gate in front of them, they felt slightly numb in their hearts.
"Second Master Hui, he's a little weird."
"How come this tomb door has such a shape..."
"Isn't it a bit like...the gate of a prison?"
"I just said, why does it look so familiar... Damn it, I spent fifty years in Taoist prison, so I hate this thing..."
"Don't you think it's strange? The tomb gate is the gate of a prison, so isn't this tomb a prison?"
“Who buries someone and expects to go to jail?”
"This is not right..."
"Didn't you say that the one buried was...that one?"
…
Several people whispered in low voices and felt uneasy.
Mo Hua eavesdropped with his ears raised.
After a while, Mr. Pi frowned and said:
"Now that things have happened, there is no turning back. I am here to earn a living. If my head is not in my belt, how can I be picky? Besides, I have already received the reward. How can I give up my job?"
"That's right," said the Jindan monk among them, who was called "Second Master Hui." "What we want is the things in the tomb, so why bother about what is buried in the tomb."
"I have been living underground for so many years, and I have never seen anything strange. The brave ones will be starved to death, and the timid ones will be starved to death..."
After a few people finished speaking, they became a little more courageous.
"Mr. Pi, please open the tomb door." Second Master Hui said.
"Okay." Mr. Pi nodded, then followed the same method, took out the compass, bronze formation pen, and formation paper, and continued to deduce by himself.
But after deducing for a while, Mr. Pi frowned, turned around and asked, "Let's take the 'guest' first."
Second Master Hui was startled, "Isn't it too early? According to the agreement, after breaking down the door, we will invite him and go to the grave together."
Mr. Pi thought for a while, shook his head and said: "This tomb door is more difficult, it will take more effort. And we just killed the Shen family members above, and it is estimated that someone will come to seek revenge. Time is precious and cannot be delayed, otherwise it will easily happen. Something happened. You go and ask for help, and I'll break the formation."
Second Master Hui thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay. I'll leave the 'rat' for you."
Second Master Hui pointed at the short and thin man with thick and long fingers, who crushed the heads of several Shen family monks with his hands outside and said.
To avoid taboos, tomb robbers always use "nicknames" instead of their real names.
This "mouse" is the nickname of a golden elixir tomb robber.
"No need, you have both the 'rat' and the 'stone' with you. These guests are quite big, so be careful." Mr. Pi said, "I am enough to break the formation."
Second Master Hui didn't say anything.
Mr. Pi is an experienced tomb robber and a secret ground formation master. His cultivation level may not be high, but he has stayed in the tomb longer than them.
Mr. Hui knew that even if they died, Mr. Pi might not die.
"Okay." Second Master Hui nodded.
Mr. Pi took out a piece of paper, drew a few lines, marked the direction, and then handed the drawing to Mr. Hui.
Second Master Hui took the other two golden elixirs and turned around and left.
Only Mr. Pi, Mo Hua, and the unconscious Shen Qingsheng were left in the room.
Mr. Pi concentrated on deciphering the formation on the tomb door.
Mo Hua didn't take a peek this time. He was afraid that Mr. Pi would doubt him again, so he just cast his eyes on the tomb door and observed some subtle marks on the tomb door. At the same time, he was still confused in his heart.
"Who built this tomb, and who is buried in it?"
"How could it be the inherited form of Water Prison Gate..."
"And this tomb door seems to be the 'Prison Gate', which coincides with the Qi Blood Eye Technique of the Water Prison Gate... What is the relationship between this?"
…
Mo Hua frowned more and more.
After thinking like this for a moment, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him was a little deserted, the air was eerily quiet, and even the subtle rubbing sound left by the bronze pen on the paper disappeared.
Mo Hua was startled, looked around, and then frowned.
"Strange, why is Mr. Pi missing..."
Mo Hua was muttering when he accidentally turned around and saw Mr. Pi standing behind him with a gloomy face, holding a dagger and stabbing him in the back of the heart without anyone noticing.
Mo Hua was so frightened that his face turned pale. His feet immediately softened, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
And with this fall, he just narrowly avoided the sharp dagger that Mr. Pi wanted to kill him, which seemed to be tempered with poison.
Mr. Pi looked strange, "This kid is quite lucky..."
Mo Hua was frightened and said, "Senior, what are you going to do?"
Mr. Pi smiled softly, "What do you think?"
"I..." Mo Hua said in panic, "You...you want to kill me?"
"Correct answer, but it's of no use." Mr. Pi said indifferently, then took a step forward, thrust his right hand out, and stabbed Mo Hua in the heart.
Mo Hua's hands and feet were handcuffed by second-grade shackles. He could not resist, so he could only roll on the spot and evade Mr. Pi's killing move. At the same time, he quickly said:
"Senior, don't you want my help? How can I help you if you kill me?"
"This young master of the Shen family can go and make sacrifices for you. It doesn't matter whether you are there or not."
"How can one be enough? I'd better keep an extra one as a spare..." Mo Hua said.
But Mr. Pi ignored him and wanted to kill Mo Hua. The dagger in his hand kept shining with cold light, stabbing Mo Hua's life gate every time, but Mo Hua narrowly avoided it every time.
Mr. Pi's anger grew stronger, and he suddenly understood. He sneered and said, "I didn't see it, but you kid has practiced a lot of good skills..."
Mo Hua only focused on running for his life and ignored him.
Mr. Pi smiled slightly, "But that's the end of it."
Mo Hua was startled. Just as he was about to say something, he felt a shock under his feet, the earth's air flowed, and earth and rocks rose up, turning into a cage, instantly trapping him inside.
It's a formation.
Although Mo Hua's hands and feet were bound by shackles, Mr. Pi prepared the formation in advance to ensure nothing went wrong.
Moreover, this formation was born out of the earth formation inheritance and is very obscure. Ordinary monks, even ordinary formation masters, cannot detect it at all.
Mo Hua was trapped by the formation and his face turned pale.
Mr. Pi sneered, "Are you going to run away again?"
The ink portrait looks like a deer trapped in a trap, with frightened eyes and a frightened look on his face as he asks Mr. Pi:
"Senior, you and I have no grievances, why do you have to kill me?"
Seeing that Mo Hua was trapped by his formation and had no chance of survival, Mr. Pi smiled lightly, walked forward slowly and said:
"In my life, I have traveled all over the country and met many monks. I only took a glance and knew that you, my little friend, are special."
"At first, I only thought that you were highly talented and had a great understanding of formations. But just now you pointed out the mistakes in my formations. This is enough to prove that you have learned a lot from me and have a very profound knowledge of formations."
Mo Hua felt guilty and said: "I am lucky..."
Mr. Pi shook his head, "This is a formation. If you can do it, you can do it, and if you can't, you can't. There is no such thing as luck. In the way of formation, even if someone is lucky, it is based on strength. Without strength, Luck alone is of no use.”
"I'm not wrong, you are a formation genius." Mr. Pi said firmly.
"Even if I am a formation genius," Mo Hua said anxiously, "then you don't have to kill me... As a formation senior, shouldn't you cherish your talents?"
Mr. Pi smiled, "Boy, have you lost your mind? No relatives or friends, no matter how talented you are, what does it have to do with me?"
"Aren't you really so naive that just because you have great talent, everyone you meet will cherish your talent and teach you the formation?"
"This is the world of cultivation. People's hearts are greedy and self-interested. No one will treat you well without any reason."
"It's simply too tender..."
Mo Hua seemed to have his thoughts revealed by him, his face became paler and his eyes were a little "desperate".
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Mr. Pi felt a little compassion.
Such a handsome young man, such an excellent formation seedling, was going to die in his own hands today.
"Boy, before I die, I will teach you something so that you will understand clearly."
Mr. Pi held the poisoned dagger, stepped closer to the ink painting, and said with a gloomy smile:
"As an array master walking in the cultivation world, you must remember: no matter what you do, it is best to have only one array master in the group."
"And it's best for this formation master to be yourself."
"You are the only formation master, and others dare not silence you easily."
"And because you are the only formation master, only you understand the formation. No matter what you do or say, whether it is right or wrong, only you know."
"You want to kill people, you want to trick people, you want to take advantage of others, everything is up to you."
"This is the experience I have gained over hundreds of years in the world of cultivation, working with all kinds of monks, licking blood with the tip of a knife, and snatching food from the tiger's mouth."
"Your formation is too good, I can't keep you, so you can only die."
"Remember, if there is a next life, you must remember this..."
Mr. Pi poured spiritual power into the dagger, and the edge of the dagger shone with a green and deadly light.
Under Mo Hua's fearful and desperate gaze, Mr. Pi stabbed the dagger into the chest of the formation genius with a ferocious smile.
He is very skilled in this set of moves.
And obliterating the formation genius also gave him, a shady old formation master, a dark pleasure.
But within a moment, the ferocious smile on Mr. Pi's face suddenly solidified.
His dagger pierced Mo Hua's chest, but no blood flowed out, only a mist of water.
On Mo Hua's face, there was no longer fear or despair. Instead, he smiled strangely at Mr. Pi.
This smile immediately gave Mr. Pi goosebumps.
"not good!"
Mr. Pi's eyes widened and he turned around immediately, but as soon as he turned his head halfway, a trace of fire appeared in the corner of his eyes.
This ray of fire is different from ordinary flames.
It was deep, strange, and full of violent spiritual power. Just the faint coercion it exuded made Mr. Pi's hair stand on end.
What is this...
Mr. Pi still wanted to struggle, but at this moment, he had no chance to react at all. The burning pain in his back was already felt.
The fire was consuming his flesh and blood.
At the same time, a kind voice came: "Thank you for your guidance, senior. There can only be one formation master in a group. I have learned it."
Mr. Pi's heart skipped a beat.
At that moment, he had only one last thought:
"Damn, the boat capsized. I hunted geese all day long and got pecked in the eye..."
The next moment, the flames exploded, raging like a condensed flame dragon, breaking through Mr. Pi's back, burning his internal organs, evaporating his blood, running through his entire chest, and drawing a line of blood and blood in the air. The flames of the fire roared out.
Small meteorite technique!
When the fire was gone, Mr. Pi slowly knelt on the ground, his internal organs were burned to ashes, and there was no trace of life left.
Mr. Pi is dead.
Now among this group of people, there is only one formation master left.
And this formation master is naturally Mo Hua.
After killing Mr. Pi, Mo Hua turned his head and looked aside.
Shen Qingsheng on the side had woken up at some point, and he didn't know what he saw. He was sitting on the ground with a look of horror and disbelief on his face.
Mo Hua looked indifferent, made a silencing gesture towards him, and warned:
"You haven't seen anything. If you dare to say anything, I will kill you."
Shen Qingsheng felt a chill in his heart, couldn't help but shuddered, and said in disbelief:
"What on earth is this ink painting..."
Mo Hua ignored him and was thinking of ways to deal with the aftermath.
After thinking for a moment, Mo Hua took out Mr. Pi's storage bag and some other potentially useful things on his body and put them into himself.
After that, Mo Hua searched around the area and finally found a mechanism in a corridor. This mechanism was used to kill people. The whole structure was a huge stone mill, which would directly crush the person entering the tomb to death.
When he came in, Mr. Pi noticed that he was coming to this institution and deliberately avoided it.
But now that he is dead, there is no way to avoid it.
Mo Hua dragged Mr. Pi's body over and placed it on the machine's slot.
In an instant, the mechanism was activated, and the card slot shook suddenly, shaking Mr. Pi's body into the air.
There was a whistling sound in the distance, and three Firebolts shot through the air with great force, nailing Mr. Pi's body deeply, and then flew to the end of the passage together with the Firebolts.
At the end was a stone grinder, which worked up and down, directly grinding Mr. Pi's body into meat patties. The blood exploded and stained the stone grinder red.
Mo Hua quickly covered his eyes and cursed in his heart:
"I don't know who designed this cemetery. It's too cruel..."
It was so cruel that he didn't even dare to look at it.
However, Mr. Pi was a tomb robber. He disturbed the peace of the dead during his lifetime, stole so many tombs, and finally died in the cemetery's mechanism. It can be regarded as a happy ending.
Mo Hua nodded, then returned the same way and came to the tomb door.
Shen Qingsheng looked at the figure painted in ink as if looking at a devil.
Mo Hua glanced at him, and Shen Qingsheng's face turned pale instantly. He curled up on the ground with his head in his arms, not daring to look at Mo Hua again.
Only then was Mo Hua satisfied, and then he put on the second-grade shackles that he had untied, and carefully completed all the formation patterns on the shackles.
Then he sat down cross-legged and began to look through Mr. Pi's storage bag.
He had wanted to get Mr. Pi's storage bag for a long time, but he didn't expect that he would get it so quickly.
This is also because Mr. Pi is too cautious and impatient.
Mo Hua shook his head and continued to flip through the storage bag.
In the storage bag, in addition to spirit stones, obstacle-preventing pills, evil-preventing pills, evil-preventing pills, and other pills commonly used in the tomb, most of them are inherited items from the formation master.
For example, compasses, jade slips, formation books, formation diagrams, etc...
After flipping through the ink paintings for a while, my heart suddenly shook.
This Mr. Pi seems to be a disciple of the "Earth Sect"...
His inheritance comes from the Earth Sect, the largest sect in Kunzhou.
"Di Zong..."
Mo Hua pondered in his heart.
This name is not unfamiliar to him, and he even has a secret formation of the Earth Sect——
The thick soil of the first grade and the eleventh pattern.
When he was learning Hou Tu Jue Formation, his master seemed to have mentioned to him the origins of some earth sects.
Di Zong is one of the largest sects in Kunzhou.
Master didn't say how big it was, but from Master's perspective, he said that this sect was "very big", and it was estimated that it was definitely a sect of level five or above.
Kunzhou, like Qianzhou, is also a big state.
The land in Kunzhou is more fertile and the families are extremely wealthy.
One of the largest sects in Kunzhou, its financial resources and foundation are likely to be stronger than the four major sects in Qianxue State.
Of course, there is another thing about Di Zong, and the ink painting has a very deep impression.
It's that ancient visualization picture that is said to be the most precious treasure of the Earth Sect. It has been passed down for tens of thousands of years and contains a powerful Tao Yun. It is so precious that it was coveted by the Taoist court and had to be cut into two pieces——
"Emperor and Queen's Earth Map"!
