The scholar in white robe took a step forward, bowed respectfully, and said earnestly:
"The senior has a highly respected position in the spirit world, and now possesses Fellow Daoist Hua."
"Our Ye family opened the seal of Kunwu Mountain this time in order to obtain the Lingbao. If the senior is willing to hand over the Eight Spirit Ruler to me, the Ye family will definitely help you with all their strength."
Upon hearing this, the young man surnamed Xu revealed a barely perceptible smile and said calmly, "I wanted to speak, but Fellow Daoist Ye got there first."
Both the scholar in white robe and the young man surnamed Xu are meticulous people.
When they felt the strength displayed by Hua Tianqi's demon concubine when she attacked, they instantly realized that the gap in power between the two sides was too huge and it was difficult to contend.
Therefore, they began to think about winning over each other.
"Eight Spirit Ruler?"
Hua Tianqi Demon Concubine looked indifferent and said in a cold voice:
"If anyone can subdue him, feel free to give it a try. I will never stop you."
The eldest elder of the Ye family and the young man surnamed Xu were both startled when they heard this, and then looked at each other with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
"What? I asked you to take the treasure, but now you are backing off?"
Hua Tianqi's concubine raised a sarcastic smile and said coldly.
Hearing this laughter, the white-robed scholar and the young man surnamed Xu became even more cautious and afraid to act rashly.
Madam Mu has remained alert ever since the appearance of the strange concubine Hua Tian.
At this moment, she quietly moved her jade hand tucked in her sleeve, with extremely careful movements.
As if afraid of being discovered, he took out a mysterious object from his storage bag.
The big-headed monster hiding far away above the palace suddenly asked in a sharp voice:
"Senior, you have no interest in this treasure. Why did you try to stop me when I was trying to take it?"
"Everyone else can take the treasure as they please, except you!"
Hua Tianqi's concubine glanced at the weirdo and said calmly. The weirdo's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the broken arm with a squint and questioned angrily.
"Have you seen the clone of Saint Yuansha?"
A cold voice came. The big-headed monster's heart tightened, and he immediately denied: "What Yuansha Saint Ancestor? I have never heard of him!"
Although you didn't have much contact with the monster, you have already been tainted with a little bit of demonic energy. I can see through it all at a glance.
Whether you are willing to admit it or not, when you entered the hall and saw my soul box, you had evil thoughts in your mind.
If the possessed person hadn't woken me up in time, I'm afraid you would have already attacked me. You're really brave to use the soul-destroying talisman against me.
There was a flash of green in Hua Tianqi's eyes, and his tone was icy cold.
The scholar in white robe was horrified when he heard this, and hurriedly asked the strange man for details through voice transmission.
However, the big-headed monster seemed not to have heard it and remained silent with an expressionless face.
When the white-robed scholar saw this, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
Chen Yun suddenly asked, "Is Saint Yuansha an ancient demon?"
He had a vague feeling that the appearance of the ancient demon from southern Tian in Kunwu Mountain might be related to the so-called Holy Ancestor Yuansha, and he pondered secretly in his heart.
Just as everyone was speculating, the surroundings fell into silence.
After a moment, a cold female voice broke the silence. It was the voice of Madam Mu from the Huaxian Sect.
She had a stern expression, holding a green jade seal with the image of a five-clawed dragon appearing on it, glaring at "Hua Tianqi".
"Fellow Daoists, please do not be fooled! This woman is an illusion created by the Ancient Demon Saint Ancestor, and her purpose is to confuse us."
"If we rashly take away the Eight Spirit Rulers that suppress this demon, I'm afraid it will break free and the world will be plunged into disaster."
Mrs. Mu said slowly.
"Dragon Seal!"
With a low shout, "Hua Tianqi"'s expression suddenly changed when he saw this, and he quickly pressed towards Madam Mu in the air.
There was a sudden tearing sound in the space, and Madam Mu held up the jade seal.
The dragon's roar shook the heaven and earth, and the dragon's shadow instantly expanded tenfold to meet the huge force pressing down from the air.
Accompanied by an earth-shaking roar, white light flashed, and the dragon shadow and the huge force perished together and disappeared completely.
At this moment, Madam Mu and the beautiful woman beside her released two rays of light, one golden and one silver, as they raised their hands. The Sun and Moon Shuttle then appeared. The two of them flashed and entered it.
Seeing this scene, "Hua Tianqi" frowned, opened his mouth and spurted out a silver beam of light, pointing directly at the spirit shuttle.
Unexpectedly, the phantom of a giant deer covered in strange scales appeared in the formation without warning.
He swallowed the beam of light in one gulp and then disappeared without a trace.
Chen Yun's heart tightened and he quickly turned his gaze to the Eight Spirit Ruler.
I saw that the ruler began to tremble slightly at some point, and then circles of seven-colored light emanated from the ruler. The phantoms of eight spirit beasts gradually became clearer in the light.
Obviously, this spiritual treasure is about to be activated.
Not good!
Hua Tianqi realized that something was wrong, his expression suddenly changed, and with silver light flashing around him, he rushed towards the palace below again without hesitation.
The Eight Spirit Ruler suddenly made a sharp buzzing sound, and then the nearby formation also shone brightly.
The ground shook violently and nine huge cracks appeared, from which nine altars slowly rose.
These nine giant altars tower into the clouds, and their size is several times larger than the smaller altars around them.
On top of each altar stands a giant blade emitting dazzling golden light. Its shape is similar to the golden blade in the hand of the stone puppet but larger.
These blades are more than ten feet high, like nine giant pillars supporting the sky, and their power is intimidating.
The white-robed scholar saw this scene and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Nine True Demon Subduing Formation!"
Chen Yun instantly realized the critical situation, quickly grabbed Yin Yue's arm, and quickly retreated.
After hearing the words of the Ye family's eldest elder, a light bulb went off in his mind, and he seemed to recall that he had heard the name of this formation before.
At this moment, one side of the space collapsed instantly in the flash of black light, and countless evil spirits gushed out like black pythons.
Along with a wild laugh, a demonic figure with two heads and four arms shot out from the evil energy and stood in mid-air in an instant.
The nine giant blades shone brightly, each emitting a thick golden blade light that instantly covered half of the sky and pressed down fiercely on the demon shadow.
The demon shadow let out a scream and flew backwards suddenly.
In an instant, a golden light flashed quickly and suddenly appeared above the demon's head, and then slashed down fiercely.
A loud "boom" was heard.
The golden light and the rich demonic energy emanating from the demon shadow intertwined and collided with each other, instantly flashing a dazzling light that was dazzling to the eyes.
At this critical moment, a graceful figure quietly appeared in front of the demon shadow.
She stretched out her slender jade-like fingers and steadily blocked the sharp golden light.
On the top of Kunwu Mountain, a vortex of spiritual energy surged wildly, turning the sky into chaos.
The golden light of the Nine True Demon Subduing Array and the diffuse demonic energy intertwined with each other, interweaving into a miserable and dim blue dome.
Chen Yun frowned slightly, a pungent smell of burnt sulfur lingering at the tip of his nose.
That was the aura emitted by the peeling scales of the ancient demon under the scorching heat of the formation.
"boom!"
The black-robed woman flicked her fingers lightly, and the eighth golden blade exploded instantly.
The broken runes turned into bright sparks in the sky, which sprinkled on her fluttering skirt and magically condensed into crystal clear ice crystals.
Yin Yue stared at the face that looked exactly like her own, and the fox tail behind her curled up involuntarily.
The excruciating pain that I felt when my body was pulled out three hundred years ago seemed to climb up my spine bit by bit.
"Be careful!" Gui Ling suddenly shouted loudly.
In an instant, the ground shook violently and an ochre-colored halo suddenly rose up.
Almost at the same time, seventy-two golden thunder talismans instantly took shape under Chen Yun's feet.
At this moment, three purple-scaled demon snakes suddenly jumped out from the sleeves of the black-robed woman, and their sharp fangs were only three inches away from Chen Yun's throat.
However, as soon as the three demon snakes approached, they were tightly entangled by the golden lightning net and instantly turned into a smelly blood mist.
The big-headed monster took the opportunity to transform into a stream of light and went straight for the Eight Spirit Ruler.
This spiritual treasure is surrounded by layers of silver lotus, and each petal reflects the shadow of an ancient ferocious beast.
The moment his fingertips touched the handle of the ruler, a vibration like a dragon's roar came from deep in the earth veins.
"roll!"
Long Meng's angry roar was accompanied by the eruption of true fire from the earth's lungs.
The Eight Spirit Ruler suddenly turned over, and the green light bursting out from the end of the ruler overturned the entire palace, and glazed tiles fell like rain.
The protective jade bead that the young man surnamed Xu offered shattered as soon as it touched the green light. He staggered back seven steps, with blood oozing from the corners of his lips.
The black-robed woman chuckled, and the magic pattern spread from her neck to her brows.
The black wind flag in her palm fluttered in the wind, and nine ferocious demon heads appeared on the flag.
When the seventh demon head opened its vertical pupils, strange folds began to appear in the space.
The altar stone pillars twisted like melted candles. The hems of several Ye family monks' clothes suddenly caught fire and they rolled on the ground screaming.
“This is space collapse!”
The moonlight shone from Yin Yue's fingertips, weaving a silver net around Chen Yun.
The seventy-two Green Bamboo Bee Cloud swords hummed at the same time, and the evil-repelling copper coins hanging on the sword tassels jingled.
Chen Yun noticed that when the Black Wind Flag swept across the center of the magic circle in the northeast corner, the originally flowing golden light suddenly stagnated for half a breath.
The two-headed ancient demon suddenly exploded, and its four arms holding magic weapons smashed into the void.
Each attack accurately hit the connection point of the formation patterns, and the light curtain of the Nine True Demon Subduing Formation instantly rippled.
The shadowy clone of the white-robed scholar took the opportunity to get within three feet of the Eight Spirit Ruler and took out a bronze compass in his hand.
It turned out to be the "Heaven-Deceiving Mirror" that could temporarily disrupt the perception of spiritual treasures!
"Boom!"
The Eight Spirit Ruler suddenly rotated on its own, and the ancient inscriptions on the ruler lit up one by one.
When the third word "Zhen" appeared, the gravity within a radius of one hundred feet suddenly increased tenfold.
The scholar in white robe slammed his knees into the floor tiles, and his phantom clone dissipated like foam.
At this moment, the real Eight Spirit Ruler turned into a stream of light and shot towards the Black Wind Flag in the black-robed woman's hand.
"Not good!" Chen Yun's pupils suddenly shrank.
Three gray round beads flew out from his sleeves. They were the "Breaking Forbidden Thunder" made from the gold-eating beetle shells.
The lightning beads collided with each other during the flight, and the silver threads that burst out actually formed a spider web in front of the space cracks drawn by the black wind flag.
The collision of the two celestial treasures set off a frenzy of spiritual energy.
The three closest Ye family cultivators instantly turned into blood mist, and the natal magic weapon "Xuanbingjian" that the young man surnamed Xu summoned cracked into spider-web-like patterns.
Chen Yun felt a sweetness in his throat and forced himself to swallow the blood. The seventy-two flying swords formed a Zhoutian sword formation to protect his whole body.
The black-robed woman turned her head suddenly, and a blood-red moon appeared in her demonic pupils.
She said coldly: "Since you can't bear to part with this body..."
Before he finished speaking, the demonic energy condensed at his fingertips instantly turned into a chain, piercing through the sword formation and heading straight for Yin Yue's brow, "Then come back!"
At this critical moment, a giant bronze claw suddenly emerged from the ground.
The demon-suppressing runes wrapped around the claws turned into golden hoops, crushing the demonic chains inch by inch.
The demon-suppressing runes turned into golden hoops, crushing the demonic chains inch by inch.
At the same time, Long Meng's cold laughter came from the abyss:
"Yuansha, do you really think you can deal with two weapon spirits at the same time?"
Chen Yun seized this fleeting opportunity and the sword formation suddenly changed to "Tian Gang Reversal".
The golden light that originally protected the body instantly turned into a swimming dragon, carrying a swarm of gold-eating insects and swooping down towards the Black Wind Flag.
Along with the hissing sound of the insect swarm gnawing at the magic patterns on the flag, the entire Nine True Demon Subduing Formation suddenly let out a wailing sound as if it was on the verge of collapse.
The black-robed woman's expression became serious for the first time.
Her left arm suddenly exploded from the shoulder, and the devil blood drew a complex array in the air.
When the seventh drop of blood fell into the center of the formation, the flag that was bitten by the gold-eating bugs began to repair itself.
However, golden threads could be faintly seen through the newly formed magic patterns.
Those are the eggs laid by the gold-eating bugs in the evil energy.
"It's now!"
Yin Yue bit her tongue hard, and the blood that gushed out condensed into a crescent moon in the air.
Long Meng, who was trapped in the formation, seemed to sense some changes, and the vibration of the earth veins suddenly intensified.
The silver lotus of the Eight Spirit Ruler suddenly expanded, forming a brief stalemate with the evil energy of the Black Wind Flag.
Chen Yun's eyes shone brightly, and the seventy-two flying swords instantly merged into one.
The sword no longer emitted a green glow, but a darkness that swallowed up the light.
He infused the breath of the Gold-Eating Bug King into his natal flying sword!
At the moment the sword light fell, the space fell into an eerie silence.
The woman in black robe tried to wave the Black Wind Flag, but found that the flagpole was covered with golden insect eggs.
When the sword touched her forehead, the entire Nine True Demon Subduing Formation collapsed, and everyone fell into the sudden space rift...
The spiritual energy vortex on the top of Kunwu Mountain let out a shrill scream, and the hurricane stirred up by the black wind flag tore the entire sky into pieces.
Chen Yun's ears kept buzzing, and the protective green light on his body splashed sparks all over the sky under the cutting of the wind blade. Every spark that burst out condensed into blood-red ice crystals in mid-air.
This is a sign that the evil energy of Saint Yuansha is eroding the heaven and earth.
"Ding!"
Suddenly, from Chen Yun's sleeve, there came the sound of the gold-eating insect king flapping its wings, and the blue light in his pupils suddenly surged.
Beneath the surface, three thousand gold-eating bugs are sneaking along the cracks in the spiritual veins.
The tentacles of the swarm sensed the fluctuations of demonic energy, and this information outlined a clear picture of the battle situation in his mind.
The Soul-Destroying Nails held in the ancient demon's four arms are gathering the ninth level of evil spirit.
"Friend Xu, if you don't act now, when will you act?"
Saint Tianlan suddenly crushed the jade pendant on her waist, and seven rainbow lights shot directly at the teleportation array.
A bronze compass slipped out of the sleeve of the young man named Xu, and the needle spun wildly, tearing a hole in the demonic barrier.
The moment the two men turned into streams of light and escaped, the left side of the ancient demon's head suddenly twisted 180 degrees, and the green phosphorus fire that spewed out of its mouth burned the last ray of rainbow light into ashes.
"Boom!"
The hurricane stirred up by the Black Wind Flag suddenly collapsed into a black hole, and the golden array pattern of the Nine True Demon Subduing Array emerged like a spider web. (End of this chapter)
