Chapter 17: Expelling the Shadow Guards

The demon clan naturally had no objections, and more than a dozen people walked out of the demon group and collected the corpses on the ground together, which could be regarded as fulfilling the friendship of the demon clan's compatriots.

And Song Jinrong walked into the pagoda with a mighty team of Terrans.

Zhang Xiaoshan was about to move forward, when suddenly there was a huge pain in his mind, as if someone had used a knife to cut his brain into two, he covered his head in pain and squatted on the ground.

Yang Xihongjun hurriedly helped Zhang Xiaoshan and said hurriedly: "Xiaoshanzi, what's wrong?"

Zhang Xiaoshan had completely lost consciousness, his two eyes were spinning wildly in his sockets, and saliva was flowing down the corners of his mouth.

The sunset he was holding in his hand emitted a blue spiritual light and merged into Zhang Xiaoshan's body, and at the same time, Bei Huaixuan appeared again, and said nervously: "I actually let that ghost thing be deceived!"

Zhang Xiaoshan's current situation is a manifestation of the soul being forcibly expelled by others. It is the legendary seizure, the next few seconds are the most dangerous time, if Zhang Xiaoshan's own soul is strong, he can defeat the foreign soul. Otherwise, his soul will truly disappear, and the three souls and seven souls will become the nutrients of the new soul, and he will lose the qualification to be reincarnated.

In the depths of Zhang Xiaoshan's mind, in a white mist, Zhang Xiaoshan's own soul was holding a blue delicate sword, and a white ball of light was fiercely entangled. The white light was erratic, flickering and constantly eating away at Zhang Xiaoshan's soul power. In just a moment, Zhang Xiaoshan's soul has become extremely blurred.

Yang Xi Hongjun saw that Zhang Xiaoshan's face had turned purple, his eyes were full of thick bloodshots, the pores of his skin were oozing with blood beads, and the whole person was about to become a bloody person.

At this moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in the backpack behind Zhang Xiaosan, and a letter flew out by itself, shining a red light from it, and rushed directly into Zhang Xiaoshan's body.

In the depths of Zhang Xiaoshan's mind, the situation was already very clear, the white light group had grown more than ten times, and Zhang Xiaoshan's figure had become extremely blurred, as long as the two sides fought for a few more rounds, Zhang Xiaoshan would completely disappear from this world.

Suddenly, a red light was projected from the clouds and mist onto Zhang Xiaoshan's soul, Zhang Xiaoshan's weak soul was immediately replenished, and a loud cry came out of his mouth, his body burst up, and the sword in his hand immediately flashed five sword flowers of different colors, which corresponded to the attributes of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The five sword flowers merged into one, turning into a gray sharp sword blade, slashing the white light cluster that was about to escape on the opposite side into countless fragments, and then twisted these fragments into the sharp sword peak, turning them back into spiritual power and returning to Zhang Xiaoshan's soul.

An old and majestic voice reverberated in the depths of Zhang Xiaoshan's spiritual sense, "Xiaoshanzi, wake up!" It was the voice of Zhang Daocheng, the Supreme Elder of the Zhang family.

Zhang Xiaoshan took a long breath, his eyes lit up, looked at the few people around him, and suddenly spit out a black ball of meat from his mouth. The black ball of flesh seemed to have a spiritual intelligence, ready to escape quickly, but it was stabbed by a sword light emitted by Bei Huaixuan's fingers, emitting a burst of scorched smoke, and the whole burned.

"Boy, your life is really big, you can survive like this!" Bei Huaixuan said happily when he saw that Zhang Xiaoshan was safe and sound. The black ball of flesh just now was the attachment of the previous yin spirit in Zhang Xiaoshan's body, and now it has been eliminated by himself, and this matter has ended here.

Zhang Xiaoshan felt that the true qi in his body had returned to normal, and the mana in his body had once again come to the foundation building period, and because of the reason for the loss and recovery, there seemed to be a faint feeling that he was about to break through. It seems that he will soon be able to enter the Jindan period.

Yang Xihongjun took out a lot of pills and stuffed them into Zhang Xiaoshan's mouth. Bei Huaixuan on the side said with a smile: "Are you afraid that he won't be able to die, the true qi in his body is so chaotic, and his body is so weak, you actually gave him so many pills, aren't you afraid that he will explode and die?"

Zhang Xiaoshan waved his hand again and again, spit out all the pills in his mouth, and said with a smile: "Auntie, what Beihuai's predecessor said is right! If I eat so many pills in one go, I'm afraid I'll choke to death directly!"

Bei Huaixuan hesitated for a moment, took out a green porcelain bottle from his arms, and threw it to Zhang Xiaoshan, "Boy, you can keep this bottle of elixir!"

Although he didn't say anything about the effect of this elixir, Zhang Xiaoshan guessed that it should be some elixir to improve mana, and it should be worth a lot of money if it can be so emphasized by Bei Huaixuan.

Bei Huaixuan glanced at the surrounding demon clan with disdain, and continued to say loudly: "Boy, just now the family sent me a message, let me go back immediately, I will give you a spiritual treasure now, there is a trace of my divine soul in it, you can reach 8% of the cultivation of my body, the monk below the tribulation period is not your opponent at all, the spiritual power in it is enough for you to use it twice, and you can use a stick of incense for a long time each time!" As he spoke, he looked at the embarrassed Zhang Xiaoshan, and with a light brush in his hand, a sharp sword intent emanated from his palm, blowing away the blood and dust on Zhang Xiaoshan's body, and at the same time, a green pendant slowly fell into Zhang Xiaoshan's hand.

When Zhang Xiaoshan looked up, Bei Huaixuan had disappeared. This Elder Keqing in the clan is also a reckless person, and he does things neatly.

A red light flew out of Zhang Shan's body and returned to the letter, which was written by Zhang Daocheng to the Five Angry Venerables, and there was a trace of Zhang Daocheng's thoughts in it, and he came to the aid of his children and grandchildren at a critical time.

Zhang Xiaoshan respectfully put away the letter, put it in his arms, and immediately crossed his knees to adjust his breath. After this accident, he is confident that he will break through to the Jindan period within half a year. Suddenly, a figure flew from the tower, and the whole person collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.

The surrounding demon clan was shocked, this person turned out to be a monk in the human race before, and the realm was not low, he had already stepped into the false pill stage, looking at the appearance of his death, his body had been scattered by people, and the strength of the guardians in the tower was so terrifying.

This change happened, Zhang Xiaoshan also stood up curiously, and accompanied Yang Xi Hongjun and those demon clans into the tower.

The pagoda has nine floors, and the entrance is painted with strange patterns. Push open the tower door of mahogany and enter the pagoda, face a huge statue of the god two or three zhang high, the snake and turtle are double-headed, the back is the heavy tortoise shell, the two heads make the appearance of raising the head and bowing the head respectively, the tortoise shell is decorated with gold and silver, precious jade, there is a shrine in front of the statue, a bronze incense burner, there is a grass incense burner more than one person high.

On the futon in front of the shrine, a naked red-haired man sits cross-legged.

On the opposite side of this man, the Terran monks stood closely together, one by one, as if they were facing a great enemy!

The red-haired man opened his eyes slightly, looked at the second batch of demon clans who entered, and said with a smile: "Blazing Zhu welcomes all fellow spirit clans to come here, do you want to go to the next floor or do you want to climb the tower to read the book." ”

A white-faced man from the demon clan, with sharp horns on his head, stepped forward and said: "Senior, I am only here to climb the tower to read the book and check the secrets of my spirit clan, as for these fellow human ancestors, we don't know!" Just now outside the tower, all the demon clans saw what happened to Zhang Xiaoshan just now, and they also heard what the sword immortal in the white robe said, and they didn't want to provoke Zhang Xiaoshan and his party.

Chi Zhu waved his hand slightly, and a light door appeared on the left and right: "It's okay! I don't care about everyone's choice!" It's just everyone, Xuan Ming has an order, entering the tower to check the classics, you need thirty heads, and entering the next layer requires one hundred heads, if you can't provide it, you can answer my question, as long as you can answer it, you can also choose at will. ”

Song Jinrong stepped forward from the human race, held the long sword in his hand, and said: "Senior, I have no one to turn in, and I don't want to answer your question, I will also choose the third way!"

Chi Zhu opened his eyes, looked at Song Jinrong and smiled: "Oh! That person was already lost by my palm just now, you are not afraid, and you still have to choose this path." Surely, it's a young hero!"

Song Jinrong said with a smile: "Please teach your seniors!"

Chi Zhu nodded, and waved his right hand slightly, but there was no other movement, but Song Jinrong was knocked out of the tower like a kite off the line. Chi Zhu, who was sitting in place, smiled slightly and said, "Sure enough, the hero is a young man, and you passed." ”

Song Jinrong's voice came from outside the tower: "Thank you seniors for mercy." Everyone looked at Song Jinrong who walked in, his face was sallow, there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, the clothes on his chest had been shattered, and there was a distinct palm mark on his dark skin. Song Jinrong did not stop, and stepped into the light gate of the pagoda according to the instructions of Chi Zhu, and entered the Xuanjing Building.

Blazing Zhu was expressionless, lightly skimmed everyone, and said slowly: "How are you doing?"

Everyone felt that they didn't have the strength of Song Jinrong, and they couldn't resist Zhu Zhu's palm. I hesitated a little for a while.

Blazing Zhu's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said: "Acquaintance is fate, today I can give you a fourth way!"

Everyone shouted, "Please teach your seniors!"

Chi Zhu smiled slightly, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly, word by word: "You can kill each other in the square outside the tower, the human race can kill the demon spirit clan, and you can enter the tower to read the book by getting two heads, and in the same way, the spirit clan can also enter the tower to read books if you kill the human race and get two heads, as for thinking of the interface below, you need ten heads, isn't it very discounted!"

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, and I don't know who shouted, "Isn't this just for me to wait for cannibalism?

Someone else shouted, "Senior, I want to ask, if you kill your own clan, does it count!" As soon as the monk said this, the fellow disciples around him immediately moved away from him, for fear that he would assassinate him.

Blazing Zhu smiled: "Kill my fellow clansmen, let me think..."He hesitated for a moment, then continued: "If someone is going to do this, I'll take another step back!"

Everyone looked at the people around nervously, and suddenly, someone took out the magic weapon and smashed it at the people next to him, but as soon as the red light and shadow moved here, he knocked the person out of the tower with a palm, it was the blazing Zhu with an angry face, he said angrily: "I said, it is in the square outside the tower, if any of you dare to do it here, I will wipe him out with my own hands!" As soon as the words came out, the Terran monks and the demon monks glanced at each other, turned into meteors one by one, and exited the tower, and soon, there was a violent fighting sound outside.

Chi Zhu found that there were four people who did not go out, it was Zhang Xiaoshan and the others, and he was curious: "Why don't you go out with them to grab a few heads, do you want to answer my question? There is only one chance, and if you are wrong, you will not have a chance." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled and said: "It's okay, I want to give it a try, and if I answer wrong, I will take the palm of my senior." ”

Chi Zhu looked at Zhang Xiaoshan in surprise and said, "Your answer is indeed interesting, but if you answer incorrectly, I will directly kill you and your companions, you better go out, don't lose your life here." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the crowd of people fighting outside, and his heart palpitated, he didn't go out, otherwise once he was besieged, he would not fall in an instant, he decided to answer Chi Zhu's question, once the answer was wrong, it was to use the incarnation of the spirit weapon that Bei Huaixuan gave him, while the two sides were fighting, he would take Yang Xi Hongjun and others to evacuate, even if he couldn't find Zhilucao, it would be better than losing his life! "I was also curious to see what questions this strange keeper would ask.

Chi Zhu closed his eyes and said, "Okay, that's it, please listen to it! The bright moon is impermanent! Everything is like the wind, you can only feel and share, but you can't hold it in the palm of your hand." Life is like a drop in the ocean, but there is no end in sight. Let's ask, in a hurry, why do you compete for fame and fortune. Life is short, why do you work around? Young man, tell me what you think of all this. ”

There is no answer to this question at all, it is a test of a person's Zen and heart, no wonder Chi Zhu has such confidence to ask the trespasser, which one of them is not a person who is full of desires in his heart, and how can he have any profound insights.

Zhang Xiaoshan couldn't answer this question before, but recently he has always fallen into strange fantasies, he is in that environment, but he has lived a real life for more than 30 years, and has also experienced the difference between life and death, and the mysterious woman has been haunted by his dreams.

For the perception of life, he also asked himself some insights. He muttered: "Senior, I think everyone comes to this world naked, and then leaves empty-handed, without a single thing, and finally turns into dust. Therefore, I think that we don't have to aspire to the perfection of life, but we accept everything that life gives us in peace, and we don't have to pursue those things that are dispensable and do not affect the meaning of life. Everything is speaking, depending on how you look at it, and everything is a test, try how you put your heart. The terrible thing to do evil lies not in being discovered, but in knowing it, and in the commendable thing to do good, not in the praise of others, but in one's own peace. There is no distinction between right and wrong, for those who have no fault, and good and evil do not give rise to disgust, and they are for people in the Pure Land. Everything is good according to fate, how can you be vain all your life. ”

Blazing Zhu was like an empowerment, stood up, looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, and said with emotion: "I didn't expect you to have such a feeling at such a young age, you are really a saint in the world, and Blazing Zhu admires." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan felt the change of life and death in his heart, and replied: "If the predecessors can have such a problem, they are the ones who have great understanding in their hearts. ”

Chi Zhu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Young man, I am a troubled person, what is there to praise, but the saint is in front of me, and I still have a problem that has trapped me for many years and wants to ask you." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan motioned for Chi Zhu to continue. Chi Zhu said: "I once promised someone to stay here forever, but I want to leave now, but I can't break my promise, how can this be good?"

Zhang Xiaoshan wondered: "What kind of promise?" ”

Chi Zhu said: "Alas, I promised someone that I would not take the initiative to step out of this pagoda, and that person also promised me that if someone could force me out of the pagoda, he would give me freedom immediately." But for so many years, no one has the ability to force me out of the tower, what should I do? ”

Zhang Xiaoshan was simply anxious about Chi Zhu's simple IQ. Won't he sell a flaw and go out by himself, it seems that this blazing Zhu has no idea of cheating in his heart.

He didn't say a word with a sad face.

Chi Zhu looked at Zhang Xiaoshan nervously and asked urgently, "Is there no way for a saint like you to be wise?"

Zhang Xiaoshan shook his head and explained: "The seniors don't know, this problem is really unfortunate, if you are outside the tower, I have a way to force you into the tower." I have a treasure that is so powerful that I think my predecessors can't resist it, but it's a pity that it can only be used outside, what a pity!

Chi Zhu was curious: "What kind of treasure is it, can you let me see it?"

Zhang Xiaoshan pretended to mysteriously take out the pendant that Bei Huaixuan gave him, and said: "This artifact comes from the primeval wilderness, and it has the power to destroy the world and destroy the world. Can destroy everything. ”

Chi Zhu sneered: "How is it possible, this is just a low-grade spiritual weapon, and the power is very weak! There seems to be a trace of the monk's divine thought clone hidden in it, but even so, it will not be as powerful as you say, don't lie to me." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan explained: "It's all said, this can't be seen in the inside, it can only be shown outside, come, you come out with me, I must show it to you." This ancient artifact, how would you know. With that, he turned around and walked out of the tower. Outside, the two clans of demons are fighting fiercely, and all kinds of magic weapons are all over the sky. Zhang Xiaoshan shouted at the blazing Zhu inside: "Come on, my magic weapon has begun to heat up." After saying that, I thought it was funny.

Chi Zhu walked out of the pagoda quickly, and questioned in his mouth: "How is it possible, I haven't seen any magic weapons." Let's get started, didn't you say that your magic weapon is starting to heat up? ”

Zhang Xiaoshan laughed and said: "My senior, you have already come out of the tower, what magic weapon do you want to see." ”

Chi Zhu looked at the flat jade platform, the quiet bamboo forest in the distance, breathing the fresh smell of earth in the air, two lines of tears actually flowed down uncontrollably, and he whispered in his mouth: "Four thousand years, I, Chi Zhu, am finally free." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan said with a smile: "Congratulations to the seniors, congratulations to the seniors, the sky will be high and the sea will be wide in the future, and the seniors will be able to swim at will." ”

Chi Zhu looked at Zhang Xiaoshan and said gratefully: "I, Chi Zhu, thank my benefactor, it was you who saved me, from now on, Chi Zhu will always be by your side, you are my master!"

Zhang Xiaoshan hurriedly shook his hand and said, "How can that be, the seniors have just been freed." It's better to enjoy life. ”

Blazing Zhu confirmed: "The master doesn't need to say much! At the same time, he waved his right hand and shouted: "Tianno, I'm talking to my master, get out of here." "A huge wave of red qi burned all the monks of the fighting human and demon clans to ashes!
