Chapter 230 A Friend Is Hiding in the Desert!
Shen Lian, who was hiding in the spirit vein, had seven image beads in front of him.
Those who could receive the image beads were all cultivators he had identified as having something unusual.
There were four people in the first wave, and three more were added later, making a total of seven cultivators.
These people all had different means. Even if Shen Lian had a divine consciousness strength of 30,000 feet, it was inevitable that some cultivators had magical means to detect him.
And using the image beads without divine consciousness fluctuations would be more secretive.
"This five-spiritual root cultivator is not worthy of his name."
Among the seven people, there was a five-spiritual root golden elixir cultivator. I thought he had good means, but I didn't expect his combat power to be so poor. Only the five-element spell he performed was worth watching.
"Is this demon cultivator practicing transformation? How could he turn into a demon crow? This technique is so weird."
"No, this is a ruthless person, with a human and a demon body. This is a demon... no, a half-demon."
"Catch him and study him carefully."
"This female cultivator has such exaggerated pectoral muscles, but her aura is so masculine, and there is a bit of demonic energy."
...
"Ninety-nine percent of it is the residual soul of a Yuanying. It's really a good opportunity to meet a Yuanying as a master."
"The wasteland is a good place. Even Yuanying hides here."
After investigating the seven concerned cultivators one by one, Shen Lian had a preliminary idea in his mind.
"Let's get started."
"If you want the opportunity, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth is in the hands of God. It depends on your luck. My things are not so easy to get."
"Buzz!"
In an instant, in the colorful mountains and fields, a spiritual light that penetrated the sky and the earth illuminated the four directions.
After the spiritual light bloomed in the sky, it released boundless colorful miasma, covering the miasma area that had been dispersed before.
At the moment when the colorful miasma was released, the five colors released by the spiritual light just merged with the miasma, and it looked inconspicuous.
The spiritual light formed a huge three-layer millstone in the sky. The top layer of miasma rolled into a huge frenzy, tearing all the miasma within hundreds of miles, covering the traces of the colorful spiritual light.
The shape of the millstone is inverted, and the top layer is also the largest, with a radius of hundreds of miles. The middle layer is a hundred miles in size, filled with khaki streamers, sucking in the soil and rocks in the mountains.
As for the bottom layer, it was directly buried in the earth. The half of the mountain before was like the core of the millstone. At this moment, it also made a humming sound as the millstone turned.
"Swish!"
A sound of breaking through the air was heard, and a broken arm in the rotating second millstone broke through the soil and flew out, piercing into the hill in the distance.
However, after a few breaths, the extremely powerful suction rolled up the hill bit by bit, and the flying arm was re-rolled into the millstone.
The place where the three millstones touched made a piercing squeak.
"Master, help me!"
"Daoyou, save me."
...
The screams and roars came into Shen Lian's ears. He sat cross-legged in the same place and was indifferent. If you want an opportunity, you must be prepared to fall. This is true for the entire world of immortal cultivation.
Of course, he didn't want to kill everyone, that would be too conspicuous.
He adjusted the probability of killing one person according to the level of the Golden Core Combat Power in the Wilderness, and was ready to kill about 30%.
This probability is much better than other secret realms where people are wiped out at any time, and 50% of them die at once.
After the formation started to operate, all kinds of tricks and killers were used.
"Sure enough, I was wrong."
As the dealer, Shen Lian adjusted the formation in real time.
When the last wave started, the five spiritual roots cultivator he had not been optimistic about before actually patted his head, and a bull horn covered with patterns grew out of his head with two "puffs".
This sharp horn flashed with five kinds of spiritual light of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and it extended more than a foot in a moment. With a light scratch, the formation covering this person in front of him was cut open.
"Five-color stone magic weapon!"
At the moment when the five bull horns flashed with colorful spiritual light, Shen Lian's eyes could not help but raise.
It's not a magic weapon, it's a magic treasure.
Compared to the Five Elements Mountain, it is still slightly ordinary. This bull horn growing in the cultivator's forehead has already become spiritual, and the colorful spiritual light keeps flashing.
Which good person made this magic weapon.
You made a sword, a spear, a stick, an axe, a hook and a fork, and it's fine, but you made a horn, and it's so thick.
"Sizzle."
At the moment when the five-colored horn appeared, it cut through seven layers of formations in a breath.
This cultivator also consumed a lot of energy, taking two third-level spiritual medicines in a row, plus a lot of medium-grade spiritual stones.
But these supplements only allowed him to cut through six layers of formations again.
"Damn it!"
Su Lincai's face sternly, and with a thought, several yellowish-brown high-grade spiritual stones in the storage ring fell into the dantian and broke, turning into rolling earth spiritual power and injecting into the body.
Then, his five-element technique started to operate frantically, turning the high-grade earth spiritual stones into his own five-element mana after the Zhoutian cycle.
The five-colored horn, which had regained the support of mana, once again cut through the formation space in front.
During this process, his figure kept dodging, avoiding the energy of the formation that impacted him.
"Sizzle."
When the five-colored horn cut through another layer of formation, invisible sword light flashed in front of him.
The sharp aura hadn't even arrived yet, but Su Lin felt like a thorn in his back.
He uttered a string of obscure spells, and pressed his hands on the horns.
"Spirit, help me!"
"Woo woo woo!"
Instantly, the horns of the ox whimpered, and a ball of colorful mist rolled up and enveloped Su Lincai, colliding with the attacking sword light.
"Puff puff puff."
The sword light made countless sword holes in the colorful mist, but the colorful mist shook slightly and the sword holes disappeared.
Su Lincai in the colorful mist vomited blood, but the holes on his chest and back could not heal quickly.
But at this moment, he did not dare to stay. He madly operated the skills to inject magic power into the five-colored horns, and once again opened the three-layer formation, rushed out of the millstone, and headed towards the depths of the forest without looking back.
...
"Watch him."
Dahei, who was sleeping in the depths of the earth, suddenly saw a figure in his sea of mind. He immediately drilled out and began to give orders to the black-horned ants everywhere.
As long as it is in the wilderness, its black-horned ants are everywhere.
Shen Lian deliberately let the five-spiritual-root cultivator go. He focused his attention on the demon cultivator with a female body and a male appearance. Let's call this person a female demon cultivator.
The five-spiritual-root golden elixir just now was extraordinary. The early stage of the golden elixir could withstand the sword attack comparable to the late stage of the golden elixir. There was also such a five-colored bull horn on her body.
I don't know which good person made it.
The female demon cultivator held a flag in each hand. The left flag was blood-red and dripping with blood. The right flag was covered with skulls and black smoke.
The two big flags swayed left and right, constantly bombarding the lightning falling from the formation.
Logically speaking, the most taboo thing for demon cultivators is lightning, but this woman who controls the blood and demon flags is not afraid of lightning.
Even, this woman deliberately sacrificed her flag under thunder.
Shen Lian was a little unhappy watching this scene. He felt that the female demon cultivator did not respect him.
Can we be more formal and fight to the death?
"Strange, the soul on this female demon banner has no resentment."
Shen Lian gradually saw some clues, but even if the soul has no resentment, it should be afraid of thunder and lightning.
...
"Okay, okay, this time I really came at the right time. Let me borrow the thunder and lightning of the Taoist formation to cleanse my merit banner."
The old monster of Banner Mountain laughed, revealing a strange cry that was not commensurate with her pretty skin.
Afterwards, she injected magic power into the two banners with both hands.
After the blood banner was nourished by the magic power, a nine-turn blood river gushed out and surrounded the black banner.
On the skull on the black banner, soul shadows with green light flew out from the holes in the mouth, nose and eye sockets, absorbing the blood energy in the blood river.
"Go, go, the strong yang of thunder will wash away the foul air you have been contaminated with, and go to reincarnate."
After the green-glowing soul took a big gulp of blood, it was struck by the thunder several times, and its breath became weak, but the green light on its body enveloped 'him/them', always keeping the last vitality alive, and finally turned into a wisp of green smoke rising up and disappeared under the thunder.
"Fuck."
Seeing this scene, Shen Lian was hit hard by the thunder, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether he was a demon cultivator or the female cultivator holding the banner to save the souls of the living souls was a demon cultivator.
This is not right!
What is the rule of heaven and earth? Demon cultivators are doing the work of saving souls.
This is like a hen crowing and a rooster laying eggs. Isn't this a slap in the face of the righteous cultivators?
The next moment, Shen Lian had an idea.
He can do this job too!
And he can do it better than this female demon cultivator.
Stealing skills.
"What is the green light? It can actually protect the soul from extinction."
"This demon... This fellow Taoist cannot be killed... Forget it, I have already helped, so I might as well help to the end."
Shen Lian took out the formation plate and adjusted the True Yang Thunder Formation. If there is any merit in this matter, he will share half of it.
"Damn it, a demon cultivator doesn't do his job properly, but instead kills people, refines souls, lights sky lanterns, and starts to please the world. Can you do it as well as me!
Putting down the array plate, Shen Lian muttered.
He must steal the skills, and then take over this business and make it bigger and stronger.
Not to mention, this is the few demon cultivators who don't do their job properly that he has encountered.
As a demon cultivator, what he does is more righteous than the righteous way, how can he mix in the circle?
Muttering, Shen Lian turned his attention to the old man Yuanying and the newly promoted little Jindan.
If there are no exceptions, the Five Elements Mountain and the "Record of the True Meaning of Acquired Spiritual Treasures" will fall on these two people.
Before killing Ziyang's half-crippled Yuanying, now with another half-crippled Yuanying, it can be regarded as a seamless combination.
The combat power of this young cultivator in the early Jindan period has also reached the level of resisting the sword energy of the late Jindan period, and under the guidance of the Yuanying old monster Under the impact of the sword energy of the late Jindan stage, Shen Lian only suffered some minor injuries.
The sword energy was performed by the transparent sword group left by the old monster Ziyang. He lowered the power to the late Jindan stage.
The previous five-spiritual root cultivator and the cultivator with the old grandfather were both quite powerful, only a little worse than him in the early Jindan stage.
The Wilderness did a good job this time, and three interesting cultivators were tested at once.
Including the previous Master Qiushan, there are four.
In the small Wilderness, there are actually four cultivators who are expected to reach the Nascent Soul stage. You should know that the last Nascent Soul cultivator in the Wilderness was more than 10,000 years ago.
This number is really not small.
Is this place a Feng Shui treasure land?
…
After breaking the sword energy and the illusion formation, Xiao Yang appeared in the spacious cave again, but this time the cave was no longer empty.
The cave was covered with thick dust, and there was a high platform in the center.
On the high platform, a figure sat cross-legged in a meditation posture, but his whole body was charred black, and most of it was in a skeleton state.
Needless to say, the robe on his body had long been connected to the shriveled bones and fit the skeleton.
"Is this the senior?"
Xiao Yang carefully looked at the half-skeleton figure sitting in meditation, and checked it with his divine sense.
"Master, can you see anything?"
He asked, and with his eyesight, he could not see anything unusual.
"It is indeed dead, and it was struck by lightning and it is unrecognizable. I can't sense the original breath."
Xiao Yang nodded, and with the words of his master, he felt relieved again.
His eyes slightly raised, and then his eyes fell on the several sealed jade boxes in front.
Perhaps because it has been too long, the seals on the jade boxes have weathered.
He casually sent out a magical power and opened a jade box beside him. A purple light shone, and a purple warm jade appeared in the jade box.
‘Kaka.’ Two sounds rang out, and the remaining two jade boxes also broke apart.
In the middle jade box, a simple scroll and a magic weapon with spots on the surface were revealed.
In the remaining jade box, a shrunken spiritual medicine was completely weathered into powder the moment the jade box was opened.
“It seems that the words left by the senior were correct. There are indeed three treasures, but it’s a pity that the Tianzhi has weathered.”
“Pick up the scroll and have a look.”
“Okay.”
Xiao Yang nodded, and rolled up the simple indigo scroll with his mind and slowly opened it.
Suddenly, the cave was full of spiritual light and misty clouds.
“The Record of the Acquired Spiritual Treasure.”
Xiao Yang whispered softly, but there was an explosion in the Shennian Sea.
"Quickly cut off the divine thought!"
In an instant, he retracted his divine thought, and the flying scroll closed again and fell down.
"Hoohoo..."
Xiao Yang panted heavily, with horror in his eyes.
"Master, what's going on!"
"This is the ancient cloud pattern. Many of the classics and secret techniques that have been circulated in the Immortal Palace are recorded in this kind of text."
"Is this secret method from the Immortal Palace?"
Xiao Yang's throat moved. Although he had never seen the Immortal Palace, he had heard from his master.
"Be careful, look at the small mountain-shaped magic weapon."
"Master, it's a second-level magic weapon." Xiao Yang was a little surprised after checking it.
"Look at what's written in the scroll."
...
"Hoohoo."
After half an incense stick, Xiao Yang was exhausted, "Master, this is actually a secret method that can make people transform into a spirit of a weapon. Then this magic weapon is..."
"It's a magic weapon made of five-colored stones."
"Master, you don't want to take over someone else's body, this method is quite suitable for you."
After a long time, Xiao Yang spoke.
"The world is in the hands of the scumbags. The road to immortality is cut off. What's the point of changing to another path?"
A sigh sounded, and Xiao Yang was silent for a while, "Master, there is always a ray of hope in the world. Besides, the road to immortality may not be cut off, but perhaps there is a fork in the road.
Just like Master, the calamity of transformation still left a trace of soul. Perhaps this method is the fate of Master."
"Why not give it a try?"
"My soul is not even as good as the newly promoted golden elixir. It is already extremely difficult to survive. I am afraid it is not the fate."
After a few breaths, a faint voice sounded.
"Even if it is not the fate, the disciple will definitely go straight to the sky and protect Master."
Xiao Yang did not wait for the master's response. He saluted respectfully to the dry bones on the high platform, collected them, burned them into ashes with magic, and buried them in the cave.
"The kindness of my predecessor today, I will never forget it in the future."
"I hope that the predecessor will reincarnate and embark on the path of immortality again."
...
"Crack!"
As Xiao Yang finished his salute, the cave began to shake violently, and fragments began to fall from the top.
"The cave is going to collapse."
Xiao Yang immediately came back to his senses, and rushed in the direction he came from with his magic power flashing.
"Boom!"
The three heavy millstones above the Jiyuan Mountain roared, and it was more like a dragon rolling under the earth.
The whole world began to collapse, tearing apart the miasma of thousands of miles in an instant, allowing the sunlight that had not been seen for years to cover this area again.
But the dust generated by the earthquake rushed into the sky, and suddenly blocked everything in all directions.
In the surging energy, one figure after another fled out in a panic, hating that their parents had not given them two less legs.
There were also those who were proficient in escape techniques, and they used escape techniques to move away from dozens of miles away, but in It is inevitable that you will get bruised and battered accidentally when you escape in the midst of the earthquake.
The half of the mountain range that stood in the mountains before collapsed completely, and the main area affected a radius of 100 miles. The ground was still rumbling a hundred miles away.
As for which cultivator can escape, Shen Lian didn't know. His arrangement was to take a fellow Taoist away at random.
It depends on whether the fellow Taoist is lucky or not.
The set probability of falling is only between 30% and 40%.
For those with bad luck, they will be given a reincarnation ticket and be reborn in a lucky life in the next life.
"Squeaky."
In the turbulent energy, the rocks rolled, and Fan Shan, with two banners on her head, walked out of the earthquake calmly.
Soul shadows kept appearing on the two banners on her head, helping her to hit the falling stones away.
Half a day later.
The energy burst lasted for most of the day. In the collapsed Chance Cave, a total of 21 Jindan cultivators were taken away. Among them, only one demon cultivator left, the one who played with the banner. The rest were buried in the soil by Shen Lian.
Among the remaining cultivators, the leader of the Bishui Sect was also buried.
This was not Shen Lian's deliberate targeting of him.
Originally, this guy had been seriously injured once before, but he was unwilling to enter the formation again. Who could he blame for not being able to survive.
If he had given up greed and left immediately, Shen Lian would have had to chase him and do it himself even if he wanted to kill him.
…
A hundred miles away.
On a still shaking cliff, Xiao Yang bowed solemnly again towards the center of the collapse.
"A-choo."
Shen Lian, who was still hiding in the formation, suddenly shuddered and felt cold.
