Text 10, Demon Punishment Ceremony
On this day, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce, but Tonggu Town is as bright as day, noisy and shouting.
For three whole days, now at night, there are still immortals who descend from the sky from time to time on the magic weapon of the immortal family, all of them are extraordinary, and their bearing is outstanding, attracting mortals to stop and watch. The more daring ones are looking for a sentence with those immortals who seem to be kind-faced, in order to get into the immortal spirit.
The five-year demon ceremony kicked off.
The demon punishment ceremony in Huangyang Prefecture was originally a tacit agreement between high-level people and demon monks.
Human beings are the best of all souls, and they have a unique advantage in terms of cultivation. However, with 100,000 mountains, vast beasts, and a reproduction rate far exceeding that of humans, if there is no external force to interfere with the balance, I am afraid that in a few years, mortals will be squeezed by brute beasts and it will be difficult to survive.
Therefore, every five years, there will be a "Demon Punishment Ceremony" in Huangyang Prefecture, where monks below the spirit building level will be organized to wipe out the fierce spirit beasts within a hundred miles of the mountains from mortal settlements.
On the side of the demon clan, it is also very tacitly agreed to only let the retail below the Tongzhi Realm participate in the war, which is also an internal purification baptism, and the demon beasts of the Gathering Spirit Realm who can survive this ceremony can almost eventually advance to the Tongzhi Realm.
The sky is white, and all the immortal disciples of Tonggu Town have gathered in the town's martial arts arena.
Xia Ye stood outside the crowd and could distinguish the disciples of the Zhengyang Sect among them at a glance.
They are all dressed in brown robes with a yin-yang fish logo on the cuffs. Most of them had a pride on their faces, and during the conversation, they showed the bearing of the first sect in Huangyang Prefecture to the fullest.
Three old men appeared on the middle stage, and it seemed that they were the principals of this demon ceremony. After simply reporting to his home, he said some grandiose words about eliminating demons and defending the way, announcing the official start of the demon punishment ceremony.
"Hanzi, aren't you going into the mountains?" Xia Ye put a hand on his shoulder.
Looking sideways, a fair-skinned face came into view, with a bit of eagerness.
"Yang Erniu, what are you going to do in the mountains?" Xia Ye recognized him. The boy's real name is Yang Ling, nicknamed Yang Erniu, and he often boasts that he has two cows in his family, and he is one of the people who have been familiar with him in Tonggu Town for half a year.
"Don't you know, the immortals have great powers to kill those brute beasts like cutting melons, naturally they don't look down on the corpses of those ordinary spirit beasts, but they are all treasures to us. Last time, Wang Shoucai in the town followed the immortals, and he actually got a tiger skin by walking shit, and he got big, so he married a daughter-in-law......"
Yang Erniu was still chirping and croaking, but Xia Ye's mind flew away.
"Tiger skin, I wonder if the big-eyed girl and her big white tiger will encounter these immortals this time?"
So he interrupted Yang Erniu to speak: "Let's go!"
On the way, Yang Erniu looked at Xia Ye, who had a big bow on his back, a hunting knife on his waist and hips, and a big black dog next to him, and couldn't help but feel proud of his cleverness.
With such a partner, the probability of picking up treasures alive is naturally much greater.
He didn't tell Xia Ye that every time he punished the demons, the mortals who wanted to follow the immortals to pick up treasures didn't know how many people were killed or injured.
Xia Ye lived up to Yang Erniu's high hopes, but in half a day, the two found a wild boar carcass, which was five or six hundred catties. If you can get it back, it will be a lot of money.
Ignoring Yang Erniu's strong suggestion to accept it when he saw it and turn around and return, Xia Ye continued to move forward. Yang Erniu had no choice, hesitated for a long time, so he had to hide the wild boar carcass carefully, and made a lot of marks, and finally kept up with Xia Ye's pace.
Three days passed, and the good luck seemed to be suspended, and the two never met the treasures that the immortals "missed" again, and they did not meet any mortals who went into the mountains to collect treasures.
Yang Erniu was very resentful.
If he knew that Xia Ye deliberately avoided these with his Divine Sense Realm, he would definitely beat his chest and regret this journey.
"Roar!" came a tiger roar.
Xia Ye suddenly quickened his pace when he heard the sound, and the old dog also rushed out, in the direction of the sound.
Yang Erniu slapped his forehead and gritted his teeth to follow.
"Roar!" "Roar!"
As we got closer, the tiger's roar grew louder and louder, and by later it was clear that the surrounding vibrations brought by the tiger's roar could be clearly felt.
The scene in front of me is finally clearly presented.
It's the big white tiger!
At this moment, he was confronting the three of them, and they didn't pretend to be disciples of the Zhengyang Sect.
The three of them were disheveled and looked embarrassed. Each holding a weapon envelopes the big white tiger in a triangle.
The big white tiger was even more miserable, with blood blooming all over his body, and a large piece of his chest was torn off and his fur hanging, and the flesh and blood were visible.
Xia Ye's heart tightened, "What about the big-eyed girl?" Then he looked around, and his divine sense spread out even more, perceiving the limit.
With his mind stirring, he touched the bushes beside him, and the three people in front of him discovered them at the same time.
Seeing that it was two mortal teenagers and a black dog, the three people looked at each other, then turned their heads and didn't care, and continued to focus on the white tiger, ready to launch a fatal blow at any time.
After the big white tiger saw that it was Xia Ye and the black dog, he seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then suddenly kicked the ground and pounced in the direction of Xia Ye. Since the two of them and one dog happened to be in the gap between the three of them, they just gave the white tiger this opportunity.
"Roar!" a tiger roar that was even more ferocious than before shook through the mountains.
"Do it!" The three of them unanimously launched a full blow against the big white tiger that rushed in the direction of Xia Ye.
Two flying swords shot out, and the speed was even faster than the tiger leap in the air.
Xia Ye was shocked, the Great White Tiger knew each other with them, but now he was like a deep hatred, completely ignoring the attack behind him, and came straight at him.
Seeing the tiger's claws in the air, the tiger's teeth are fierce, and they are coming in an instant.
"Poof!" Xia Ye could hear the sound of the flying sword plunging into the white tiger's abdomen.
The speed of the white tiger did not decrease, and the tiger claws fell in the direction of Xia Ye.
"Bang!" Tiger Claw seemed to have lost his head due to the blow of the three monks, and almost wiped Xia Ye's clothes and fell to the ground, and suddenly the sand and stones flew sideways.
Xia Ye and Yang Erniu were also picked up by the aftermath of the tiger's claw and sat on the ground.
The black dog also dodged in front of Xia Ye in an instant, baring his teeth fiercely at the white tiger and making an attacking posture.
Xia Ye looked embarrassed, but he didn't panic in his heart.
He has the divine sense of the Divine Perception Realm, and it seems that he can also feel some malice and murderous aura.
But he didn't feel a trace of fear in the seemingly ruthless blow of the white tiger just now.
That blow wasn't meant to come at him.
The huge tiger head suddenly nodded at Xia Ye, and then turned his head sideways, looking in the other direction.
Xia Ye understood in an instant.
Big-eyed girl!
Only this paused slightly, and the three people behind him had already been killed at close range.
The White Tiger did not retreat, but slammed straight into one of them, even if it was a powerful axe facing him.
The axe landed right in the white tiger's forehead.
However, the remaining momentum continued unabated, and the monk behind the giant axe was also hit by the white tiger Zheng, and the tiger's claws pierced through the heart.
"Roaring ......" the white tiger used all his strength to let out the last howl of this life, sad and sad.
Tiger mighty.
Seeing that the white tiger finally lost his breath, the remaining two cultivators stepped forward with confidence and moved the tiger's body away, revealing the axe-wielding monk below who had already died of anger.
One of the round-faced monks glanced at Xia Ye, waved his hand like a fly, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know if I'm alive or dead, get out." ”
Xia Ye took the old dog, pulled Yang Erniu, who had already peed his pants, and walked forward.
There was a "poof" chopping sound behind him, and Xia Ye felt a surge of blood in his heart, but he didn't look back, he knew that it was the two people who were correcting and dividing the body of the white tiger.
It is also accompanied by a rather relaxed conversation between the two.
"This time, we were able to slaughter the white tiger in the Gathering Spirit Realm, and Brother Liu and I gained a lot. ”
"He is worthy of being the king of the forest, and the three of us spiritual cultivators almost couldn't take him, and even took Senior Brother Chen's life. ”
"Life should be like this, and I can't blame others. I, Lingmu Valley, look down on life and death. ”
"Those two mortal boys seem to have gone in the wrong direction......"
"Hmm. ”
Just like mortals don't care about the life and death of two ants.
