Chapter 2319 Insect Puppet
After marching in Guiziyuan for a while, the blood letter still pointed forward.
The man stopped, somewhat puzzled.
Along the way, we didn't find any signs of fighting, nor any marks of those two guys.
Maybe they didn't expect to be trapped here for so long, so they didn't leave any marks. This means that what initially attracted them in should not be a big deal, and it is unknown what happened to Guiziyuan later that trapped them.
"Is it related to prey?"
The man looked around.
His current location was considered to be deep in the Guizi Abyss. Not to mention other dangers, the miasma floating around alone was not something a Divine Transformation cultivator could endure.
If the elder of the Dongyang clan brought the witch in and had to take care of her, it would have been easier for Xuan and Miao to succeed.
And the most crucial question is, what exactly are they going to do in Guiziyuan?
Based on his understanding of the Dongyang clan, Guiziyuan didn't seem to have anything that could attract them.
The miasma was like thick fog, covering Guiziyuan and hiding the truth.
There was no longer any relief on the man's face, and he even felt a little uneasy. This was the first time he had this feeling since his last breakthrough.
The original Guiziyuan was said to be second only to the ten forbidden areas, but it did not make him feel like he was surrounded by enemies.
Thoughts kept coming up.
"Could it be that even I am affected by these miasma?"
The man shook his head, laughed silently, put aside all distracting thoughts and continued to move forward.
……
"Hey, this is the great genius of your Kang Hui clan, I think his name is Liang? He actually came alone to rescue you, he is quite brave..."
In a man-made cave in Guiziyuan.
Qin Sang used his true energy to condense a water mirror. Mist rose from the surface of the mirror, and a scene was reflected inside, which happened to be the place where the man stopped to think.
Xuan and Miao were both sitting in front of the water mirror, their cultivation sealed, unable to move. They could only glare at Qin Sang, venting their anger with their eyes, as well as their determination to face death.
When Kang Hui found out they were missing, they would definitely rescue them. Qin Sang brought them in and wanted to find out the details of other masters of Kang Hui from them.
The two were defeated and captured, which was extremely humiliating. Seeing that Qin Sang actually wanted them to betray their own people, they were extremely sad and angry. They only regretted that they did not have the courage to fight to the death in the end. It would have been a clean death!
They gritted their teeth and said nothing no matter what Qin Sang said, wishing to die.
Since he couldn't get anything out of them, Qin Sang couldn't use the soul-searching technique. Firstly, it was not easy to search the soul of a Void Refining Monk, and secondly, they would inevitably die after the soul-search. Qin Sang also wanted to keep these two hostages in exchange for treasures.
Moreover, Kang Hui clan is just the beginning. He wants to take this opportunity to establish his good reputation so that other clans can feel at ease to pay the ransom in the future.
Qin Sang didn't care that he couldn't get any information from the witch. Only the presence of Kang Hui's witch in person could make him a little afraid.
The spiritual perception of the Void Refining cultivators is very sharp, so in order to avoid being detected, the water mirror peeked to the side, and the man's face flashed on the mirror.
Qin Sang recognized the man's identity. His name was Liang. His talent was higher than Xuan and Miao. It was said that he was the most promising genius of this generation who would break through to the late stage of refining emptiness.
When She Chen mentioned this person, he once lamented that the Dongyang clan lacked such a super genius. Although Jiumie and Jianji were geniuses, they were still inferior to Liang. In the future, the Dongyang clan might be suppressed by the Kanghui clan.
When they saw Kyung, a glimmer of hope flashed in Hyun and Miao's eyes, but when they saw that there was no one behind Kyung, their eyes dimmed again.
"This is your reinforcement, but unfortunately there is only one."
Qin Sang added in his mind, "It's a pity that only one came. Well, two."
If Kang Hui sends more reinforcements, he will have more hostages.
"what?"
Qin Sang had been paying attention to the expressions of the two men, and noticed the changes in their eyes, which made him suspicious.
After seeing Liang, the two men behaved a little abnormally, as if they were not that worried about Liang. Could it be that they thought that a cultivator in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm could escape from their grasp?
It's not normal for Kyung to come here alone.
"Sure enough, a genius!"
Qin Sang pondered for a moment, then suddenly clapped his hands and laughed.
He remembered a detail that he had overlooked. It was very likely that Liang's true cultivation level was not just the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm, but that he had already broken through. He deliberately concealed his cultivation level for the sake of this battle between the Siwu and the Wu!
No wonder Kyung stopped just now. It must be that the peeping triggered Kyung's spiritual reaction.
Even Shechen had misjudged it; Kyung was more talented than expected.
"If you let us go now, I will persuade Brother Ling and Master Wuzhu to give you some compensation and wipe out all grudges. Otherwise, you will be the mortal enemy of my clan and Brother Ling in the future!"
Hyun said coldly.
With Liang's talent, he has the potential to become a great wizard in the future. If it were any other wizard cultivator, they would probably weigh the consequences. Unless they could kill this person and eliminate future troubles, it would be best to turn hostility into friendship.
"This is indeed a very formidable opponent."
Qin Sang praised them generously, but his expression was calm. He said calmly, "Please be patient, I will go and meet Brother Daoist Liang now."
The figure flashed and disappeared into thin air.
She Shuang was left guarding the hostage trembling with fear.
……
The miasma became thicker and thicker, and it was pitch dark in the abyss.
Liang was speeding along, oblivious to the dangers around him. He was surrounded by three water dragons, with complete horns and crystal clear appearance. They were made of water and formed a solid barrier. Any danger that approached would be repelled by a powerful force.
If it were a living thing, it would fall apart and die on the spot!
A shadow fell over his heart. He had been here for such a long time, but there was no sign of Xuan and Miao. Where did they go?
Suddenly, Liang stopped and looked alert.
Looking around again, it was still dark, but a drastic change had taken place invisibly.
"Spirit formation?"
There are naturally formed formations in Guiziyuan, which is one of the dangers that cultivators fear. He encountered several along the way, but fortunately, they were not powerful formations and were easily broken by him.
This thought flashed through his mind, and his expression suddenly changed, "No!"
Suddenly, tiny stars lit up in the darkness, like stars, instantly gathering into a dazzling sea of stars.
The space seemed to be stretched and boundless.
Liang clearly remembered that the place where he was was very narrow, with the distance between the cliffs on both sides being only twenty feet, but now it has turned into a vast and boundless starry sky.
The stars were twinkling, and all the light was focused on him.
The starlight did not bring peace, but...
Sword intent!
"Sword formation! Who are you? You are hiding your head and showing your tail. Get out of here!"
He shouted loudly, and it seemed as if a seal in his body was opened. His aura surged, and the three water dragons turned into roaring giant dragons, rushing into the sea of stars.
Now that you have fallen into the enemy's trap, there is no need to hide your cultivation.
He had already guessed the identity of the enemy. The elder Qin who claimed to be Jian Ji's senior brother must also be a master of swordsmanship.
"Xuan and Miao are still alive, but there is no news. Could they have been captured alive? Could it be that the Dongyang clan has already discovered our plan and set a trap here? Otherwise, the strength of this Elder Qin may be..."
His thoughts raced, he was in a state of confusion and uncertainty, his eyes were as sharp as lightning, he tried to pick out the enemy from the vast sea of stars.
Roars came one after another.
Three ferocious water dragons rushed into the sea of stars and madly crashed into the Sword Star, causing the starlight to tremble and shaking a large area of the star field. Liang showed his true cultivation, and the late-stage Lianxu strongman made a full-strength attack, so the momentum was naturally extraordinary.
Unfortunately, these water dragons encountered the sacred beast Star Evil, which was no less powerful than them, or even more ferocious!
A green dragon rushed out from the starlight in the east, its body three times larger than the water dragon.
The two giant dragons roared loudly, and their bodies collided fiercely, and the two huge monsters started a desperate fight.
In a blink of an eye, the water dragon fell into a disadvantage and was suppressed by the green dragon.
They entangled and sank into the sea of stars, roaring with unwillingness.
In the south, red fire spread all over the sky. A sacred beast, the Vermilion Bird, was born from the fire. Facing a water dragon rushing towards it, it elegantly preened its feathers, turned into a raging fire, and engulfed the water dragon.
The Vermilion Bird appeared in the flames, already on the back of the water dragon, and pecked it hard on the back of the neck.
With a wail, the water dragon's whole body twisted.
Suzaku stepped on the dragon's back and threw it into the sea of stars.
The roar of a tiger in the west shook the sky. The White Tiger Star Evil leaped forward, bit the water dragon's neck, grabbed its front half of the body with its front paws, and pressed hard. The water dragon bent thrillingly, as if it was broken into two pieces, and suddenly fell down.
In the depths of the starlight, the shadow of a huge turtle is looming.
The four evil spirits joined forces and easily tore the three-headed water dragon into pieces. From Liang's perspective, they were strangled by the extremely mysterious swordsmanship.
"This man's swordsmanship is far superior to Jian Ji's!"
Liang's expression became more and more solemn. He had fought with Jian Ji many times, and this kind of swordsmanship was the only one he had ever seen in his life.
The water dragons all died, and he watched helplessly without trying to save them. He opened his mouth and blew out a cloud of mist. The mist was hazy, and his figure seemed to have turned into erratic mist, making it impossible to grasp.
"Does Elder Qin really want to be the enemy of our Kang Hui clan?" Liang used the secret body protection technique and asked.
In the battle between witches, the winner is usually determined by eliminating the rival witch, and the two sides will stop fighting after a certain point. Unless there is a deep hatred, the winner will rarely kill the opponent openly, after all, it is impossible to wipe out the entire clan of the opponent.
Facing this Elder Qin, Liang had a bad feeling.
"Stop talking nonsense and let's fight first! If you win, I will withdraw from this battle of witches. If you lose, you will be like them, so stay here!"
A wild laugh rang out from the sea of stars, echoing among the stars.
"Hmph! If you want to keep me here, it depends on how capable Elder Qin is!" Liang was angry.
Although he had recently broken through to the late stage of the Void Refining Realm and had received careful instruction from Master Wuzhu, he believed that even if he was not as good as this person, he was not much worse.
At this time, the Four Star Spirits who suppressed the three-headed water dragon rushed over.
He only felt that the sword energy was everywhere from all directions. The Four Star Evil Spirits were like the commanders of the sword, leading the army to surround and kill him. There was no place for him to hide in the sky or on the earth.
Liang was not afraid of danger. A few syllables came out from the fog, containing a strange rhythm, as if they were the voice of this world.
'Crash...'
There were no dark clouds, but it started to rain heavily.
It was raining heavily. There was no sky or earth to be seen. No one knew where the rain came from or where it fell, but it just kept washing the stars.
The starlight gradually dimmed, and the roar of the Four Star Spirits was filled with a hint of anxiety.
At this time, a bit of purple light floated up in the mist, and in the purple light was a pottery jar, which turned out to be a magical treasure.
The Wu clan monks also use external objects, and they combine their own talents to have unique methods of refining equipment.
The pottery jar had no lid and was empty inside.
As the heavy rain fell, the clay pot was quickly filled with rain water. After swallowing the rain water, the clay pot began to grow larger, becoming larger than the fog and swallowing the fog.
As the pottery jar grew larger, its main body gradually became illusory, and finally only a huge and vague outline could be seen.
The Four Star Evil Spirits rushed over without encountering any hindrance and easily rushed into the pottery jar. However, after entering the pottery jar, they seemed to be suppressed by something and their momentum suddenly weakened a lot.
On the contrary, a deafening cry of killing came from the pottery jar, and a man walked out of the mist. It was not Liang, but a man wearing an imperial crown and a yellow robe.
The man held a sword in his hand and looked around with a dignified gaze.
As far as the eye could see, the water was rippling and water men actually walked out of the water. At first, these people only had human shapes without even facial features. Gradually, their facial features became clear and weapons and armor appeared on their bodies.
In an instant, a large army was formed and rushed towards the enemy without fear!
Their enemies appear to be four holy beasts, but in fact they are endless sword power, and they are fighting against each other under the control of the emperor.
This place turned into a tragic battlefield. A claw or a charge from the Four Star Evils could kill countless water people. But after these water people died, more water people were immediately born, and the army formation was never in chaos.
The pottery jars created an environment favorable to them and fought back desperately.
In the mist, Liang's expression became more and more solemn.
That emperor was actually composed of several water-walking spirit insects. After his careful cultivation, these spirit insects merged with each other and gradually transformed into a puppet-like existence, which can be called an insect puppet.
The insect puppets are refined specifically to cooperate with the pottery jar. Every time he fights with others, he is always invincible in the battlefield formed by the pottery jar.
Now that his cultivation was at a higher level, the insect puppet and the pottery jar had both been upgraded, and even with the two items working together, he was unable to break this sword formation!
The pressure was growing, and Liang secretly sighed in his heart, regretting that the other insect puppet was not there.
He had two insect puppets, one king and one queen. Out of caution, he released one of them in advance to explore the way. Unexpectedly, not only did he fail to find the danger, but his own strength was damaged.
Just as Liang was racking his brains for a way to escape, a warning sign suddenly appeared, and he saw a ray of starlight shooting towards the insect puppet.
This strand of starlight was as thin as a hair. It did not make any loud noise, but it gave him a feeling of extreme danger.
"not good!"
Liang was shocked and hurriedly summoned the insect puppet, but he was still a step too late.
Due to the special nature of the pottery jar, it remains undamaged even when pierced by starlight.
But when the starlight brushed past the insect puppet's left arm, it did not hit the vital point. The insect puppet was still flying backwards, and its left arm, along with the left half of its body, disappeared silently.
A small half of the spiritual insects that made up the insect puppets were also killed.
"What kind of swordsmanship is this!"
Without caring about the pain, he quickly put away the insect puppet, and truly realized the horror of this sword formation.
If he continues to retreat, defeat is only a matter of time!
'Rumble...'
Balls of blue and white light burst out from the pottery jar, accompanied by bursts of thunder.
Qin Sang appeared above the starry sea, looked at the pottery jar, and said in surprise: "It's actually thunder magic! It should be the Guishui divine thunder, but it is not the same as the common Guishui real thunder..."
Qin Sangpian was delighted to see the prey, so he pointed his finger and thunder roared in response. (End of this chapter)
