Chapter 249 - Setting up a Formation to Eliminate Demons
Dealing with Ding Yuan did upset Dong Zhuo, but this was still a trivial matter, not enough to make Dong Zhuo mess up, but what everyone didn't know was that there was actually another more tricky thing that made Dong Zhuo faintly uneasy.
The inner hall of Dong Zhuo's mansion, this is the place where Dong Zhuo rests, the security here is very strict, without Dong Zhuo's permission, it is strictly forbidden for outsiders to enter, others think that this place is heavily defended to ensure Dong Zhuo's safety, but in fact, there is a secret that Dong Zhuo does not know.
There is a secret room in the inner hall, Dong Zhuo is in it at this time, talking to a big ding, if Long Xiangtian is here, he will be surprised to recognize this big ding, it is one of the nine tripods.
"The deity has already told you to kill the little emperor and replace him, so as to dominate the world, why are you delaying, don't you want to fool the deity?"
Ding Zhong didn't see him, but he came out with proud words, I don't know where it was sacred, I saw that Dong Zhuo was very respectful to him, and there was a sense of fear in his words.
"How dare the juniors fool the seniors, it's just that things can't be rushed, although Zhong Ying has the strength now, it is not enough to confront the princes of the world, so we still need to be cautious and plan step by step in order to finally achieve our goal!" Dong Zhuo said helplessly.
The people in the Ding said unhappily: "The junior is afraid to do things, when will he be able to complete the requirements of the deity! Don't forget, it is the deity who controls the Kui beast for you to drive, and sets up the Flying Bear Army for you to help you lay the foundation of Xiliang, you can have today's achievements, all rely on the deity to help, and the deity just wants to use your strength to find Jiuding, this is a good thing for you and the deity, you still want the deity to wait until when? If you annoy the deity, the deity can easily destroy everything you have!"
Dong Zhuo hurriedly said: "Senior, please calm your anger, Zhong Ying's kindness of the seniors will never be forgotten, and I ask the seniors to give Zhong Ying some more time......
"Then give you another three months!" The people in Dingzhong interrupted Dong Zhuo's words impatiently and said: "Don't worry, the deity just wants to retrieve the things that originally belonged to the deity in Dingzhong, and after that, Jiuding is naturally yours!"
"Yes, Zhong Ying understands!" Dong Zhuo had to agree.
Exiting the secret room, Dong Zhuo was worried, in three months, it was not certain whether he could settle Ding Yuan, let alone find those Jiuding who didn't know where they were. Since coming to the imperial capital, Dong Zhuo found that the people in Dingzhong are more and more eager to get Jiuding, which is completely different from his thousands of promises in Xiliang, Dong Zhuo understands, when the time comes, if he can't find Jiuding, the people in Dingzhong will not let him go, Dong Zhuo can't help but think, rather than being victimized by it, it is better to start first, but with his own strength, it is impossible to be the opponent of the people in Dingzhong, he has to find a trustworthy person to find a way together, so who is better?
Dong Zhuo can trust people, in fact, there are only two, one is Lu Bu, the other is Li Ru, the two of them are one martial arts and one literate, complement each other, they are Dong Zhuo's henchmen, Dong Zhuo is confident in his ability to buy people's hearts, and believes that they are people who will never betray him.
Dong Zhuo finally decided to consult with Li Ru, because Lu Bu was just a martial artist after all, he didn't have any ideas, and the Jindan realm couldn't help much, so Dong Zhuo found Li Ru and told him everything.
Knowing Dong Zhuo's secret, Li Ru couldn't help but be surprised: "Ah, lord, you mean, he is ......"
"That's right, he is a demon, and he is also a demon of the Demon Venerable realm!" Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice: "I don't know his origin, I only know that when we first found this Qiantian Ding, he was in the Ding, and it was he who took the initiative to find me, because he wanted to use my power to find the other eight Dings." β
"I thought the devil was just an old legend, but I didn't expect it...... Well, what is he going to do with Jiuding? According to legend, Jiuding carries the luck of the world, does he want to dominate the world?" Li Ru said suspiciously.
Dong Zhuo shook his head and said: "He is a demon, the luck of the human race is useless to him, he said that there are things that originally belonged to him in Jiuding, and after he took out the things, he will return Jiuding to me, but I don't know if what he said is true or not, but with his strength, it is easy to win the world, and he does not need to use Jiuding, it may be that there is indeed something very important to him in Jiuding." β
"If he can not hinder us and everyone takes what they need, then we can cooperate with him, after all, such a backer is much stronger than returning to the void!" Li Ru said.
Dong Zhuo sighed: "Alas, I didn't think like this at the beginning, but now he is too anxious, I am afraid that if I still can't find Jiuding for him by then, he will really turn against him!"
Li Ru nodded and said: "The demon class is definitely not a good class, the lord really has to make plans in advance, since we have occupied the imperial capital now, then we no longer need to use him, since this is the case, in order to prevent him from fighting back in the future, it is better to find a way to get rid of him now!"
"How to get rid of him, he is a Demon Venerable, even if he is a Returning Void True One, he is not his opponent, unless the Heavenly Immortal is in the lower realm, and what can we do to deal with him?" Dong Zhuo asked.
Li Ru pondered for a while, and said: "Don't worry, lord, listen to my analysis first, that demon is hiding in the ding, and he doesn't dare to see people with his true face, maybe it is difficult to get out, or he is injured and does not want to show it, if so, then his strength may not reach the realm of the demon venerable, maybe it is only so strong as returning to the void and the truth, so you need to gather in Jiuding and take out something to restore your strength, if this idea is true, then there is a way, you can punish this demon!"
"Oh, what's the method?" Dong Zhuo hurriedly asked.
Li Ru said: "Wen You once saw a super formation in an ancient family heirloom, but it needs to be sacrificed with the flesh and blood of living beings in order to exert its powerful power, the more sacrifices, the stronger the power of the formation, if you sacrifice 100,000 living beings, even if it is the lower realm of heavenly immortals, you can also punish it in the array, according to this estimate, if you want to kill this demon, you have to sacrifice at least the flesh and blood of ten thousand living beings." β
"Oh, there is such a formation?" Dong Zhuo pondered for a while and said, "If this formation is really so powerful, and you can deploy this formation, even if you sacrifice 100,000 living beings, as long as you can get rid of this threat, everything is worth it." β
Li Ru said: "The cloth can be clothed, but once this array is completed, it will definitely be bloody and resentful, and it will turn into ashes within a hundred miles, so as not to attract the attention of others, we can only spread this array outside the imperial capital, and then find a way to lure the demon there." β
Seeing that Li Ru said that he could cloth, Dong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief, so he said: "Then you know about it, you leave the imperial capital immediately, choose a good place to prepare for the formation, and I will find a way to send you the ten thousand living beings!"
In order to eliminate the Demon Venerable, Dong Zhuo decided to take a risk, wanting to set up a demon destroying array and set up a demon extermination array to get rid of the threat of the Demon Venerable. Although this decision was very dangerous, Dong Zhuo still decided to give it a go, even if it was at the cost of 10,000 innocent lives.
And just like that, the plan was quietly executed. On the periphery of the imperial capital, there are countless immortals living outside the city, although when Zhang Jiao led the Yellow Turban Army to attack the imperial capital, many people fled, but after a few years, people have come back one after another, the officials of the imperial capital rarely take care of these immortals outside the city, and often let them go to their own devices, Dong Zhuo used this point, and secretly sent his soldiers to the outside of the imperial capital to arrest those immortals outside the city, regardless of men, women, old and young, they were often arrested when they saw it, a village and a village, and they were all caught, so a month down, tens of thousands of people were arrested, and they were all sent to the place where Li Ru set up the array, and became a sacrifice for sacrificeγ Dong Zhuo handled this matter very closely, so it did not attract the attention of others, although some officials learned of the rumors of a large number of immortals outside the city, but they did not take it seriously.
With all the support given by Dong Zhuo, Li Ru's large array was quickly set up, and everything was ready, just waiting for the Demon Venerable to enter it.
So Dong Zhuo went to the secret room and told the Demon Zun that he had found Yiding, but there was a powerful beast guard equivalent to the level of returning to the void that could not be approached, and the Demon Zun needed to go to find out, the Demon Zun did not know what the plan was, and he was confident in his own way of controlling the beast, so he agreed to go, so Dong Zhuo ordered someone to come in and carry Qiantianding to the flying car, and only took a small number of sergeants to follow, and went to the place agreed by Li Ru.
This big array laid by Li Ru is very evil, it is a formation made up of tens of thousands of monks' flesh and bones, forming a terrifying scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Dong Zhuo led the sergeants to this place in a flying car, and the Demon Venerable was hidden in the Qiantian Ding, and the flying car was carrying the Qiantian Ding.
As soon as he arrived at the destination, he saw the Demon Venerable transmitting Dong Zhuo and said, "Why are there traces of formations here?"
I didn't expect the Demon Venerable's perception to be so keen, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "That's right, that Ding is in the big array, and the strange beast is also inside, in order to prevent the strange beast from coming out, I ordered people to lay multiple formations around the big array." β
"Oh, is it?" The Demon Venerable said with a smile, Dong Zhuo was suddenly uneasy in his heart, but seeing that the Demon Venerable was no longer speaking, his heart was ruthless, so he asked his subordinates to drive the flying car into the large array under Li Rubu.
As soon as he entered the formation, he saw that the blood was full of anger and resentment, and the flesh and blood of countless monks were outlined into a set of treacherous formations.
"Where is the strange beast you said now, hey, this formation seems familiar, this is ......"
Seeing that the flying car had already driven into the formation, Dong Zhuo's hanging heart was able to let go, so he ignored the transmission of the Demon Venerable, and in the blink of an eye, he had already escaped from the formation, leaving the soldiers in the flying car and the Demon Venerable in the Qiantian Ding in the big array, Li Ru, who had been in ambush in the formation, saw Dong Zhuo come out, so he hurriedly cast a spell to close and activate the big array, and the big array could no longer let people in and out.
"Hahahaha! I see, this is the Xuandu Blood Array!" came the terrifying laughter of the Demon Venerable from the array.
