Chapter 137: Riding an Eagle (asking for monthly ticket)

Outside of Mangniu County, on the top of a mountain several miles away, a dozen figures were watching from afar.

The leader was Xiao Wendao, a celestial being from the Divine Sword Sect.

It was already noon and the sun was scorching.

But the entire Mangniu County was shrouded in a strange white fog, and strange wolf howls could be faintly heard coming from inside, which was creepy to hear.

Faced with such a strange scene, Xiao Wendao didn't even think of going in to investigate.

Such a large area of ​​white fog reminded him of the demon ruins from more than two years ago. That place was also filled with fog and shrouded by poisonous mountains, very similar to this place.

He suspected that the entire county was in a large formation, otherwise the scorching sun would not be able to dispel even the white fog.

Except for the county town area, the surrounding areas were not covered with white fog at all.

As for what the people in the county town are like, that is unknown.

I guess even if they didn’t all die, it wouldn’t be much better.

a few days later.

Hou Shuwen, the master of Guiyi Peak, arrived with his martial arts corps.

"Master uncle, there is obviously a formation here, why don't you invite the ancestor out?"

Hou Shuwen transmitted the message into the secret passage.

"No, how can I ask the ancestor for everything?"

Xiao Wendao responded in secret voice transmission. In his opinion, the last excavation of the ruins was a private matter of the Divine Sword Sect, but this time the excavation of the demon ruins was a public matter.

Once the ancestor appears, wouldn’t the identity of that senior be exposed?

What's more, he was worried that if he asked the senior for help frequently, he might get annoyed and stop caring about the Divine Sword Sect in the future. He would regret it to death.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, you must never ask that senior for help.

"But this Mangniu County is shrouded in white fog. There must be a formation. Our formation master probably won't be able to play a role."

Hou Shuwen said.

"Then let's wait for the people from Prince Qi's Mansion to arrive. They should bring a formation master with them."

Xiao asked, shaking his head.

The last time we excavated the demon ruins, we suffered too much loss, so we must think carefully this time.

This time, no monster was even seen, and no one knew what the situation was in Mangniu County.

At this time, several formation masters from the Divine Sword Sect came up.

They just arrived near Mangniu County and checked the situation.

"Xiao Tianren, the formation here feels somewhat similar to the formation in the demon ruins. It's just that our formation level is too low and we can't break it. However, Fellow Daoist Li of Chenzhongtai has a much higher attainment in formation than us, and he seems to have studied the formation of this system. Maybe he can break one or two."

The old Master Wang said.

"So Li Qian's formation is really powerful?"

Xiao asked in surprise.

"It's really high, at least much higher than us."

Master Wang nodded.

Over the past two years, they often discussed formations together and benefited a lot from it.

If the Taishan Formation Record had not been so badly incomplete, they would have already mastered the formation long ago.

"Uncle Master, let Li Qian give it a try."

Hou Shuwen said.

"no."

Xiao Wendao shook his head, "The risk here is too great. If something unexpected happens, you and I may not be able to save him. Let's wait for the people from Prince Qi's Mansion."

Let’s not talk about the relationship between Li Qian and that senior.

Even if there was no such relationship, Li Qian was very talented in both formation and martial arts, and had a bright future. He certainly could not let Li Qian take such a big risk.

Hou Shuwen agreed. Judging from previous incidents involving monsters, it often takes a heavy price to destroy them.

Moreover, this time the demonic phenomena appeared together with the formation, which might be much more serious than the previous ones.

Chen bell tower.

咚咚
A clear bell rang.

Li Qian was bathed in the sound of the bell, and he felt his blood boiling, and the true energy in his Tianren Zhendan was also ready to move.

He immediately drew out Sword Eighteen and began to practice.

After finishing one round of practice, Li Qian felt relaxed all over and had a sense of complete satisfaction.

Suddenly, he had an idea and checked the latest information on the system panel.

Realm of Heaven and Humanity (mid-term 42/100).

Chen clock (French 8496/10000).

Great River Sword Energy (Second Level 22/100).

Unintentional Sword Intention (Astronomical Phenomenon 13/100).

Qi and Blood Sanctuary (11/100).

Solution to the Lion Camel Ridge formation (Mastery 97/100).

After three years of practice, I have made progress overall.

But progress is still a bit slow.

There is no way. The higher the level of cultivation, the slower the difficulty of cultivation will be. Every slight improvement will take a lot of time.

In fact, his cultivation speed is already fast enough.

Many warriors in the Heavenly Man Realm may be stuck in the early or middle Heavenly Man stage for their entire lives.

It is a great blessing that he can still improve steadily.

"The progress of solving the Lion Camel Ridge formation has reached 97 points. Perhaps it will soon reach a small success."

Li Qian thought to himself.

In the past three years, he has never stopped studying the solution to the Lion Camel Ridge formation.

Especially after he went to the Formation Valley frequently, communicated with other formation masters, and studied the five formation stakes, he improved very quickly in trying to arrange the formation.

Thinking of this, he jumped off the bell tower and fed a feeding pill to Xiao Hei, who was growing bigger and bigger.

Then he jumped onto Xiao Hei's back.

Now Xiao Hei's body is big enough to carry one person for flight.

However, it should not last too long.

The reason why he invested so much in Xiao Hei was because he wanted to be able to fly in the air openly, right?

Tweet!
Xiao Hei chirped, spread his wings and flew up.

Flying is more difficult.

However, it is still quite stable.

Li Qian stood on Xiao Hei's back, motionless, as if he had taken root.

Because it was carrying people, Xiao Hei didn't fly very high and glided towards the mountain.

Liu Ming was very envious when he saw this scene. Flying!
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to sit on it.

If you fall down, you will be seriously injured if not killed.

Of course, the most important thing is that Xiao Hei didn't let him sit.

Li Qian rode on Xiao Hei and flew low all the way.

Since he took a detour and did not enter the inner gate, few people saw him.

After arriving at the array valley, Li Qian patted Xiao Hei on the back, and Xiao Hei immediately chirped and dived down.

After circling a few times, it landed on the ground.

Li Qian jumped off Xiao Hei's back.

"Senior Brother Li."

A errand disciple from Zhen Valley stepped forward quickly and spoke respectfully.

"Where are Master Wang and the others?"

Li Qian asked.

"Master Wang Zhen and his men left a few days ago. They said that a demon had appeared in Mangniu County, Taiping County."

The errand disciple said hurriedly.

"A demonic sign appeared?"

Li Qian was very surprised.

He had heard of many incidents of demonic activity in the past two years.

But if demons appear, why do we need Master Wang Zhen and others?

Wait, Mangnniu County, Taiping County?
Why does this place name sound so familiar?

He couldn't help but think of the Taiping Holy Cave. Wasn't it located underground in Mangnniu County, Taiping County?
Could the appearance of demons there be related to the Taiping Holy Cave?

Under normal circumstances, this possibility is not high. The wolf demon has turned into a mummy, a pure corpse, without any blood or energy, and the demon stone has been taken away by him.

But the people from the Moon Worship Cult entered later. Who knows what crazy actions these inhuman lunatics have committed?
"That place was once the birthplace of the Taiping Cult, so the probability of demons appearing there is indeed quite high."

Li Qian touched his chin.

But he didn't care too much. Since Xiao Tianren didn't come to look for his other identity, it meant that there was no big problem.

So he began to study the stakes that fixed the formation and adjust the formation layout.
Outside Mangniu County.

People from Prince Qi's palace have also arrived.

In addition to the two celestial beings in the Prince Qi's Mansion, there is also a celestial being from the He family.

Five celestial beings have gathered here.

The Prince of Qi’s palace brought a formation master over.

The formation masters of Prince Qi's Mansion were originally from the royal family. Naturally, their attainments in formations were far beyond the reach of the few half-baked formation masters of the Divine Sword Sect.

However, after he carefully studied the formation covering Mangniu County, his expression became solemn.

"This is the Taiping Sect's Shenyou Armor Formation, which is said to come from the Shifang Great Formation Solution of Lion Camel Ridge. This formation should involve six formation bases, which is not something we can decipher."

The formation master of Prince Qi's palace said, "According to records, as early as the early days of the founding of the country, all the large formations in Taiping County had been cleared. How come there are omissions here?" "Can the formation master of the royal family break this formation?"

Xiao asked curiously.

"It's a bit difficult to have six array bases. At least a high-level array master must have this strength."

The formation master of Prince Qi's mansion shook his head and said.

"Then how did it break before?"

Xiao asked in surprise.

"I don't know that."

The formation master shook his head.

His attainments in formations can at most break ordinary formations with three to four formation bases. Especially formations that involve other formation systems, the difficulty of breaking them is even greater.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed.

"Do you see that the white fog in Mangniu County seems to be dissipating?"

Everyone else looked past it.

Sure enough, the thick fog that had originally gathered into a ball seemed to lose its restraint and began to spread in all directions.

"I see. This formation should have been ineffective a long time ago, but it was forcibly reactivated by someone, but it was not completely repaired. This formation cannot be maintained for too long, and it has begun to collapse now."

The formation master from Prince Qi's mansion suddenly clapped his hands excitedly and said.

After more than an hour, the white fog had almost dissipated, and Mangniu County was exposed to the sunlight again.

Several celestial beings tried to enter Mangniu County.

Sure enough, there was no trace of the formation.

However, the entire Mangniu County was dead silent.

Under the influence of the gods, there were dead people in every household, and these people died in a particularly strange way, with satisfied smiles on their faces, and finally turned into mummies.

The sight of mummies with eerie smiles all over the city is creepy.

"Damn it, that monster has left."

A celestial being in Prince Qi's palace said with a gloomy face.

The entire Mangniu County has been surrounded by the Divine Sword Legion and people from Prince Qi's Palace.

But by the time the formation collapsed, the monster had disappeared.

The monsters lurking in the dark are the most terrifying.

No one knows when this monster will appear again?
By that time, who knows how powerful the monsters will become.

"This monster is very troublesome."

Xiao Wendao let out a long sigh, his face looking very solemn.

Although Mangniu County is not particularly large and is considered a small county, it has a population of about 10,000 to 20,000 people, and all of them have turned into mummies.

This should be the largest population loss since the appearance of the monster.

Moreover, this monster escaped and will surely cause even greater terror in the future.

Xiao Wendao felt uneasy whenever he thought about a powerful monster that might be lurking in the Divine Sword Sect's territory.

Array Valley.

When Li Qian came here again, Master Wang Zhen and the others had already returned.

"The monster ran away?"

He was a little surprised.

"Yes, and more than 10,000 people in the entire Mangniu County have all turned into mummies. It has completely become a dead city. It's really tragic."

Master Wang Zhen had a look of compassion on his face.

Faced with such a terrifying monster, ordinary people really have no power to resist and are like lambs to be slaughtered.

Li Qian felt a little heavy-hearted.

The whole city was turned into mummies. How tragic it was.

The harm and terror of demons can be seen from this.

Moreover, the monster has not been eliminated yet and may continue to harm people at any time.

He thought more and more that such strange phenomena would become more and more frequent in the future.

For ordinary people, this is definitely a horrific catastrophe that may happen at any time.

into the night.

Li Qian put on a black cloak and quietly left the Divine Sword Sect.

He wanted to go to Mangnniu County, Taiping County to take a look.

With his current flying speed, it wouldn't take too long to get from Shenjianmen to Mangniu County.

Although it was dark, it did not pose any obstacle to Li Qian.

There were balls of fire burning in the open spaces throughout Mangniu County. Some government officials were still cleaning up the corpses and burning the mummies overnight.

It would take more than 10,000 days to clean up the corpses.

After Li Qian walked around and found nothing, he came to the foot of Niujiao Cliff.

There are traces of people coming in and out here.

It should have been left by the Moon Worshipers.

So he went deeper and deeper, and finally arrived outside the Taiping Holy Cave.

Suddenly, his expression changed slightly, and he vaguely sensed a strange aura lurking inside.

"That monster hasn't left yet, has it?"

Li Qian stopped, feeling a little surprised and suspicious.

Although he possessed celestial-level sword power, cultivation in the middle stage of the Heavenly Man Realm, and the Holy Domain of Qi and Blood, he still had to be extremely cautious when facing an unknown monster.

Although he had been using the Chen Bell to restrain his breath, he also had a black cloak.

But when he just came in, there was inevitably some noise, which must have alarmed the aura inside.

"Since you are here, please come in and have a chat."

A hoarse and low voice came from the cave.

Li Qian frowned slightly, but finally walked into the cave. He also wanted to see what kind of monster this was.
There was no change from the first time he came. Lying on a platform was a huge, shriveled corpse of a wolf demon.

However, this time, a middle-aged man in a white robe was sitting cross-legged on the wolf demon's corpse.

The aura of this middle-aged man was not strong, but Li Qian could still feel a sense of fear when he saw him for the first time, just like the huge petrified ape monster he encountered in Panyuan Cave before.

demon.

It's definitely a monster.

But why a human body?

Could it be that humans have transformed into monsters?

"Are you a demon?"

Li Qian was on guard and asked in a deep voice.

"Haha, that's indeed what you humans call us."

The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"So, you killed more than 10,000 people in Mangniu County?"

Li Qian said.

"Those are just two-legged sheep, how can they be called human beings? However, it has been a long time since I have had the pleasure of tasting such fresh two-legged sheep."

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

Li Qian felt a chill in his heart. From the tone of this monster, it was clear that it treated humans as food.

No wonder the existence of demons is so secretive in some ancient books.

"You know what? Long, long ago, this human world was just our hunting grounds. These two-legged sheep were our food, and you human warriors were just servants who shepherded our sheep. Unfortunately, everything changed later."

The middle-aged man said calmly, "Now my tribe is about to return, and we need a dedicated herder. And you are barely qualified."

"I'm curious, where are you from?"

Li Qian was very unhappy, but in order to get more information, he still asked patiently.

"Of course it comes from the outside, a wider world. It's a pity that a talented human warrior like you can only live in this cage-like human world. However, as long as you are loyal to me and herd two-legged sheep for me, I can grant you the power to surpass the limits of this world, so that you will have the opportunity to see the real world outside."

The middle-aged man said with a smile.

There was an inexplicable allure in his voice.

He believed that this human being would definitely not be able to withstand such temptation.

"Um, I seem to have heard this somewhere before?"

Li Qian looked surprised and said, "Let me think about it."

"Oh, it seems to be in some Panyuan Cave, there is a person who calls himself a monkey god, but he is hiding his true identity."

He seemed to remember something and said thoughtfully.

"So the human who destroyed the Red Ape's divine body was you?"

The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he became stern.

The next moment, a silver light flashed in his eyes, and a terrifying will was released back, quickly enveloping Li Qian.

dong dong dong dong dong
Almost instantly, Li Qian felt countless illusions appearing in his mind, as if they were going to drag him into hell.

But then, the sound of the morning bell began to ring violently, keeping him absolutely awake.

After all, he had taken precautions a long time ago.

Before in Panyuan Cave, that terrifying will was too shocking.

Just at this moment, the middle-aged man let out a low growl, and his body transformed into a terrifying werewolf that was seven meters tall, with a ferocious face, exposed long fangs, and huge claws as sharp as knives. He suddenly pounced towards Li Qian.

Just when the terrifying werewolf was about to pounce on Li Qian, Li Qian seemed to sense something and suddenly stepped back. At the same time, a strong golden light like flames burst out from his body and turned into a dazzling holy land of qi and blood, covering everything in the cave without any blind spots.

The terrifying werewolf who had just rushed to the Qi and Blood Holy Land suddenly paused, as if he was in flames. The demonic power in his body began to run wild, and his demonic body was actually a little unstable.

"Ahhhh damn it, how can anyone in this human world be able to cultivate the Qi and Blood Saint Domain?"

The terrifying werewolf let out a roar of fear and anger, and then forcibly controlled its unstable body and rushed directly towards the cave entrance.
