Chapter 147 Demon Festival
Chapter 147 Demon Festival (asking for monthly ticket)
Xiao Hei's flying speed is still slower than Hou Tianren.
However, Xiao Hei's endurance is still quite strong, and he does not need to rest during the flight.
Of course, it has something to do with the fact that Li Qian fed the fish with a supplementary version of the feeding pill during the meal.
The two men and the eagle finally arrived at Baibi City at 3 p.m.
Li Qian did not let Xiao Hei land directly, but let Xiao Hei hover over Baibi City at a low altitude for a while to observe the changes in the aura of Baibi City.
As a formation master, one often starts with the changes in the aura of a place.
As soon as he entered the area of Baibi City, he sensed that the aura here had undergone subtle changes, as if it was a big mouth that swallowed everything.
Whoosh!
Xiao Hei descended from the sky and landed in the city.
He went straight to the city gate.
Elder Qingsong and Elder Cangyun rushed over as soon as possible.
There is also Yu Tianren from Taiwu Daofu.
"I didn't expect to see such a handsome flying mount here."
Yu Tianren's gaze fell on Xiao Hei, a look of surprise on his face.
This kind of flying mount is very common outside, but it is still quite rare in this human world.
"Is this the formation master from your Divine Sword Sect? He looks quite young."
He looked at Li Qian again, sized him up, and said with a chuckle.
"Senior, you are joking. I have only touched on the formation a little bit."
Li Qian said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
The aura of cultivation he exudes now is probably at the level of a junior grandmaster.
Not too strong, nor too weak.
"The evil soldiers in Baibi City are passing through because of the little demon's magic. You must find the source as soon as possible and use formations to weaken or block it. It would be best if you can eliminate it."
Yu Tianren said.
Then he briefly explained the formation principle of the little demon exorcism technique.
The formation masters in this human world must be unfamiliar with this kind of sorcery.
"Little demon subjugation technique?"
Li Qian looked surprised.
Inside the black iron ring he obtained, there was a jade slip that contained a technique for subduing a small demon.
Even the technique of exorcising small demons mentions the technique of exorcising big demons.
Of course, he only knew the technique to subdue the great demon, but he didn't have any specific method of arrangement.
But he had studied the art of exorcising demons for some time, and it was quite weird anyway.
He had sensed the changes in Baibi City's aura before, but had not thought of this aspect.
But now, when he heard Yu Tianren mention the technique of subduing little demons, everything suddenly became clear to him.
"Senior Yu, how many places like Baibi City are there?"
Li Qian asked after pondering for a moment.
"Before I came here, I found seven in total."
Yu Tianren said.
"Seven?"
Li Qian quickly asked, "Senior Yu, do you have the specific locations of the seven places?"
"Have."
Yu Tianren nodded, and then asked someone to bring up a map of Taiwu Dao, with seven locations marked on the map.
"Is this the Seven Stars Moon Worshipping Formation?"
After Li Qian studied it carefully, he looked surprised.
But he immediately frowned, "That's not right. How can such a large-scale Seven Stars Moon Worshipping Formation be deployed?"
“Although it is possible to perform the Great Demon Subjugation Technique using the Seven Stars Worshiping the Moon Formation, is there such a powerful formation master in this human world?”
Li Qian felt it was unlikely.
He doubted that even if he had mastered the Lion Camel Ridge formation, he would not be able to set up such a large-scale Seven Star Worship Moon Formation.
The four celestial beings just watched from the side without disturbing them.
Li Qian jumped back onto Xiao Hei's back and let it carry him around in the sky above Baibi City for a few more circles.
After they landed, Yu Tianren asked, "Can you find it?"
"Senior Yu, it's not difficult to find the source. The main thing is to break the little demon subjugation technique, which will be very difficult. Several days have passed, and the little demon subjugation technique is almost integrated with the heaven, earth and man of Baibi City. If it was just discovered, it would be much easier."
Li Qian said.
Then he took the entire city layout map of Baibi City and marked more than a dozen locations.
"If we dig in these locations, we should be able to find something, but we have to dig it out to know what it is."
Li Qian said, "It would be best if several celestial beings dug it out personally. Only the True Elephant-level martial spirit can resist the influence of the demon thoughts of the little demon's magic."
"It seems that you have some knowledge of the Little Demon Conquest Technique?"
Yu Tianren said with some surprise.
"I did get involved occasionally. If it wasn't for you pointing out that it was a demon-subjugating technique, I wouldn't have been able to tell for a while."
Li Qian said modestly.
Then, several celestial beings went to various places and started digging.
After digging in more than a dozen places, they unearthed a number of stone coffins.
The sarcophagus is covered with various textures.
Li Qian came to one of the sarcophagi.
The sarcophagus was buried three meters deep underground.
Due to the special nature of the sarcophagus, it is almost impossible to detect it through spiritual perception.
Moreover, within Baibi City, due to the influence of the little demon's summoning technique, even the celestial beings with true elephant-level martial arts would be disturbed.
Li Qian took out several formation plates from the bag he was carrying.
He did not put the formation plate into the black iron ring, just to prevent such a situation and to be able to take it out and use it at any time.
Of course, the Yuanshi on the formation plate was taken away by him.
hum!
As the formation was activated, one formation plate after another was activated, interfering with the sarcophagus with the fluctuations of the formation.
"Seniors, please try to see if you can open the sarcophagus."
Li Qian said quickly.
The four celestial beings quickly flew into the deep pit. Each of them grabbed a corner of the coffin lid and exerted force suddenly to open the sarcophagus.
Accompanied by an invisible shrieking sound, the four celestial beings were shocked all over, almost losing their inner energy, and suffered splitting headaches.
boom!
The coffin lid, which had just been opened a little, fell down again.
The faces of the four celestial beings were pale, and it was obvious that the screaming sound just now had a great impact on them.
Li Qian also encountered the shrieking sound, but he had the Chen Bell, and the bell sound that just sounded in his mind made him immune to this influence.
Moreover, he took advantage of the gap in the coffin lid lifted by the four people to sense the scene inside the sarcophagus with his spirit.
It was a large piece of petrified leg bone.
Moreover, the leg bone is covered with strange black lines.
"Sure enough, the remains of the monster are used as the carrier of the little monster summoning technique."
Li Qian frowned slightly.
If I'm not mistaken, the seven cities used a complete skeleton of a demon warrior to perform the small demon-conquering technique, and thus constructed the Seven Stars Moon-Worshipping Formation, in order to perform the big demon-conquering technique.
But he just couldn't figure out how these seven cities, thousands of miles apart, could be connected by a formation on a large spatial level?
It's totally impossible to do.
Even for a celestial being of the celestial level, the vitality of heaven and earth that can be mobilized can only reach a range of several kilometers in radius, which is already the limit.
It is already very terrifying for a large formation to cover an entire city.
What's more, covering thousands of kilometers is a bit outrageous.
"What's next?"
Yu Tianren asked.
He knew nothing about the formation, so now he could only listen to Li Qian, his junior.
“Senior Yu, these sarcophagi are integrated with the aura of the entire Baibi City. I don’t know what kind of restrictions are used. I’m afraid there is no way to force them open.”
Li Qian shook his head and said.
"Is it really impossible to stop it?"
Yu Tianren's face darkened. Just now, the four Tianren joined forces but were unable to open the coffin lid. Even the shrieking sound impacted his mental consciousness, and he almost failed to prevent it with his True Elephant-level martial arts.
Banling City.
Taoist Master Yu Song looked at the sarcophagus that he had forced open, and at the part of the skull inside and the black veins flowing on it, his expression became extremely solemn.
"The skeleton of the demon race is used as the carrier, the small demon subjugation technique is used as the initiator, and the Seven Stars Moon Worshiping Formation completes the spatial connection of the formation to achieve the final big demon subjugation technique."
He sighed.
"Father, can't you break the little demon's spell?"
The old man with black beard asked.
"If it was at the beginning, it would be no problem to break it, but now the small demon-subjugating technique has completely merged with the aura of Banling City. Simply destroying the skeleton is not particularly meaningful. The big demon-subjugating technique will still be activated."
Taoist Master Yu Song shook his head and said, "Unless we find the final location of the demon sacrifice, we can eliminate it from the root."
He opened the map again and looked at the seven red dots on it.
The location where the Sky Poison Cult held the demon sacrifice was completely uncertain.
Unless the whereabouts of the top leaders of the Tiandu Sect can be found.
But after so many days, the various spies deployed by the Taiwu Daofu still have not received any news on the whereabouts of the top leaders of the Tiandu Sect.
"Father, can you evacuate the people from the seven cities?"
The old man with black beard asked.
"It doesn't make much sense. They have been affected by the small demon subjugation technique. Once the big demon subjugation technique is formed, as long as they are in the range of the Seven Stars Worship the Moon Formation, they will eventually be harvested. Only in this Lingcheng, I may be able to use the celestial martial arts and the divine refining array to arrange the Taishan Green Bamboo Formation to protect them."
Taoist Master Yu Song shook his head and said.
Hearing this, the old man with black beard felt heavy-hearted.
This means that nearly one million people in the other six cities may eventually not escape the disaster.
At the junction of Shuzhou and Jianzhou, between the mountains and ridges, in an unknown mountain belly.
There is an underground palace hidden inside.
In the center of the palace stood a huge altar with seven pillars on top.
A faint halo emanated from the pillar.
A huge sarcophagus is placed in the center of the altar.
"Very good, the Seven Stars Moon Worshipping Formation has basically taken shape."
A masked man in a black robe uttered a hoarse voice, "Haha, Taiwu Daofu thought I would use a certain city as a place for demon sacrifice, but unfortunately they really underestimated my Lion Camel Ridge."
"It won't be long before Lion Camel Ridge will reappear in the human world."
He looked at the box held by the person next to him.
He waved his hand lightly, and the box opened, revealing a black bead as big as a fist.
The man in black robe stepped forward and took the beads out of the box, then slowly walked towards the altar.
White jade city.
Li Qian was standing and looking at the sarcophagus in the deep pit. He felt a little heavy-hearted. Once the great demon-conquering technique was completed, people in Baibi City would probably be in trouble.
But he didn't have any good solution.
If you want to eliminate the influence of the little demon's magic, you must eradicate it from the source.
Even the Taiwu Dao Mansion couldn't find the source of the demon sacrifice, let alone him.
Suddenly, thick fog quickly emerged from the sarcophagus.
"Oh no, the demon sacrifice has started."
Li Qian was shocked.
He quickly withdrew from the rapidly expanding fog.
Then he jumped onto Xiao Hei's back and flew into the sky. He saw fog emerging from the locations of a dozen sarcophagi.
After these mists gathered together, a huge shadow of a monster's leg was formed in the sky above Baibi City.
Weird roaring sounds also began to come out from the fog.
Looking up at the sky again, it had become completely dark and it had turned into a pitch-black night with only a silver moon hanging high in the sky.
"What's going on? Why is there such a level of formation fluctuation in the space where Baibi City is located?"
Li Qian showed an expression of disbelief on his face.
Under normal circumstances, the influence of the little demon's magic could not cause such a big commotion.
But now, a shocking scene of completely changing the world has appeared.
Looking around again, there was no one else to be seen.
He knew that the Seven Stars Worshiping the Moon Formation had taken shape.
Everyone is already in the formation.
Even a celestial being would not be able to leave a formation of this magnitude.
According to his perception, many figures were moving in the fog.
They are the residents of Baibi City.
Their mental consciousness had been affected by the little demon's magic, and they walked out of their homes unknowingly.
The four celestial beings can probably only stay awake now, but it will be very difficult for them to leave the formation.
The reason why Xiao Hei was not affected was because he was protected by Li Qian's celestial-level sword intent.
In fact, Li Qian has a stupid way to temporarily protect everyone in Baibi City.
That is to gather everyone together, and he would cover them with celestial-level sword intent to resist the invasion of the little demon's magic.
As long as they can survive the demon sacrifice, everyone will survive.
But the question is how long will this demon festival last?
Using the Celestial Sword Intent to protect such a large population would take a terrible toll on the spirit, and he would certainly not be able to hold on for long.
This is completely a method of drinking poison to quench thirst, and you might even get yourself into trouble.
So, it is impossible for him to do that.
Suddenly, Li Qian had an idea and he immediately released the Holy Land of Qi and Blood.
The Qi and Blood Sanctuary spread out, covering an area of more than three hundred meters.
A very strange scene appeared. As long as the area was covered by the Qi and Blood Sanctuary, all the fog was avoided.
"It seems that my Qi and Blood Sanctuary has a strong restraining effect on the Little Demon Conquering Technique. I wonder if it can break those stone coffins and destroy the nodes of the formation that combines the Little Demon Conquering Technique with the Seven Stars Moon Worshiping Formation?"
Li Qian muttered to himself.
Immediately, he rode Xiao Hei and flew quickly towards the crowd walking in the fog.
Wherever the Qi and Blood Sanctuary covered, the fog was dispelled, and those who were originally controlled fell to the ground one by one and fell asleep.
After his Qi and Blood Sanctuary left, the fog filled the air again and those people climbed up again.
Li Qian didn't care about it anymore, but went directly to the location of a sarcophagus.
Looking at the sarcophagus that was still emitting thick fog, Li Qian punched out without hesitation. The blood and energy as hot as golden flames gathered and hit the sarcophagus hard.
With a roar.
The entire sarcophagus was blasted apart, and the unknown leg bones inside were scattered all over the ground. The original strange black lines on it seemed to become dim all of a sudden.
Moreover, the emerging fog suddenly stopped.
Suddenly, Li Qian looked at the huge misty leg bone shadow in the air, and it seemed to be dispersing.
"Great! My Qi and Blood Sanctuary can indeed clear these formation nodes."
Li Qian showed joy on his face.
Under normal circumstances, destroying the sarcophagus and the leg bones of the unknown monster would not be enough to eliminate the little demon's spell.
Because the little demon's magic has been integrated with the entire Baibi City.
The only way to achieve this is to destroy the formation nodes that connect the Little Demon Conquering Technique with the Seven Stars Moon Worshipping Formation.
With his current attainments in formation, he simply doesn't have this ability.
But what he didn't expect was that he used the powerful restraining effect of the Qi and Blood Sanctuary to easily destroy the node of the formation.
What an unexpected surprise.
He immediately rode Xiao Hei towards the locations of other sarcophagi, and used the power of the Qi and Blood Sanctuary to smash the formation nodes one by one.
After the leg bones of the unknown monster in the last sarcophagus were blasted into pieces, the huge misty shadow of the leg bones, which had already become very faint in the sky, began to dissipate in an instant.
The roaring sound in the fog also disappeared.
Li Qian looked down again and saw that the fog was dissipating.
Moreover, the night sky was gradually fading away, the bright moon disappeared, and the blue sky and white clouds gradually appeared.
"It finally worked."
Li Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
I don’t know what the situation is in other places, but Baibi City should be fine.
However, all the residents in the city have been affected by the little demon's magic, and have suffered serious mental damage. Those with good health may be weak for a while, while those with poor health will definitely fall seriously ill.
Banling City.
It was a dark night in the sky, and a strange bright moon hung high in the sky.
Below, most of the city was shrouded in fog, and the shadow of a huge animal head was suspended in the night sky.
Only on the other side, a strange green light bloomed, forming a huge shadow of a strange bamboo forest, covering an area.
Nearly 200,000 residents of Banling City gathered in this area.
The source of this green light was Taoist Master Yu Song.
He used his celestial-level martial arts to communicate with heaven and earth, and temporarily set up a large formation to resist the invasion of fog and protect the people of Banling City from the influence of the little demon's magic.
The Seven Stars Worship the Moon Formation has been completed. Apart from this method, he can't think of any other way.
We can only save the people of Lingcheng first.
At least it can weaken the demon body formed by the Great Demon Conquering Technique.
In an unknown underground palace.
A strange light bloomed above the huge altar.
Gray mist emerged from the seven pillars.
However, the gray mist emerging from one pillar was very thin.
"Humph, this Taoist master Taiwu is indeed a master of formations in the Taishan Realm. He can actually use the power of celestial phenomena to set up a formation and protect the people of the entire city. However, I want to see how long you can hold on."
The man in black robe snorted coldly.
He wasn't surprised.
He might even have figured it out already.
This will greatly consume the power of Taoist Taiwu. When the divine body is formed and the evil thoughts of the Holy Lord arrive, the first thing to do is to kill Taoist Taiwu.
Suddenly, the man in black robe looked at another pillar on the altar.
Originally, the gray fog emerging from this pillar was very thick, but suddenly it began to weaken.
The gray mist emerging from the other five pillars did not change at all.
"What's going on?"
He was stunned.
Before long, the gray mist emerging from the pillar became thinner and thinner, and finally disappeared completely.
Most importantly, the light emitted by the pillar became dimmer and dimmer, and finally went out completely.
"Damn it, what happened in Baibi City? Did the little demon-conquering spell go wrong?"
The man in black robe roared.
Even if the demon sacrifice could continue, the loss of two cities, especially the incomplete Seven Stars Moon Worship Formation, would have a huge impact on the demon subjugation technique.
The strength of the demon body of the Holy Lord will also be greatly weakened, which will have a great impact on subsequent plans.
After a long time, the gray mist released by the five pillars became thinner.
At the same time, in a sarcophagus in the center of the altar, a terrifying and oppressive atmosphere was quickly taking shape.
Wait until the gray fog on the five pillars completely disappears.
Just when the aura in the sarcophagus reached its peak, in an instant, a terrifying thought suddenly descended upon the palace.
Everyone in the palace, including the man in black robes, was shocked and fell to their knees, roaring at the same time.
"Welcome the Holy Lord to the world."
Soon, a hairy claw stretched out from the sarcophagus and grabbed the edge of the sarcophagus heavily. With force, a majestic and ferocious figure sat up from the sarcophagus.
At the same time, a majestic and deep voice sounded inside the palace.
"Hei Xiong, how do you do things? Why is this demon body so weak?"
