Volume 5: The First Song XXXVII: The Great Tide of the Cold Spring Valley (6)
Leaving Lin Jian, Shangguan Hong generously went to find Song Zhen and the others.
"Who is that woman next to Lin Jian?"
As soon as she saw Shangguan Hong, Song Zhen immediately asked, and the rest of Ruan Tian and Bao Xian also stared at Shangguan to see what she said.
"It's just a poor little girl, it's really a coincidence that things in this world can look so similar, but...... She is the only one, and there is no one who can look like Cui Yuan, isn't it a pity, Senior Sister Bao? ”
After Shangguan Hong finished speaking, he looked at the three of them with a smile, Song Zhen's face was still eagerly confused, while Bao Xian and Ruan Tian kept watching, waiting for her to continue.
"Alas, that woman's name is Han Ning, but her real name is Ning Han, and she is a ...... Poor woman, I won't say much else, it's much better for her to say to you herself than to say to me, so if the three of you are interested in her, you might as well stare at it, maybe you can still see the repetition of the scene of Bai and Cui today, well, if you can save them, you will know more from that woman's capital. ”
Speaking of which, Shangguan Hong added another sentence with deep meaning.
"If you can't get it, two people will destroy it together, and the same was true back then!"
……
The vast ocean of water in the Cold Spring Valley began to bulge.
There seems to be a huge beast imprisoned under the water, with the arrival of the tide, the beast gradually woke up, is desperately trying to break free from the shackles and regain its freedom, as it continues to struggle, the entire cold spring valley in the water began to have no wind and waves, and the noise kept washing towards the shore.
This change did not become apparent immediately, but accumulated little by little, and it was only when the climate was formed that many monks at the water's edge were surprised that there had been a lot of changes in this cold spring valley.
The windless waves made waves, and the water splashed towards the shore in waves, which were far less obvious than the changes of the various demon beasts in the water.
The monsters in the water didn't know when, but they all began to become anxious.
Qian Chao and others clearly felt this change.
Originally, the location of more than a dozen of them, due to the superb means of everyone, so as long as there are demon beasts in the water coming up, they will inevitably be captured by these people in the positive direction, so compared to other monks, Qian Chao here often seems a little leisurely or even lonely, everyone is waiting for the demon beasts on the shore, unlike many other monks, who have been fighting with the demon beasts that have climbed up, which is more lively.
But now it's different!
All kinds of demon beasts don't know who is urging and agitating, from the first few to the end almost non-stop rushing to the shore, one by one hissing and roaring, regardless of size, no matter how fast or slow it is, no matter whether it is agile or not on the shore, first rush to the shore and then say. One by one, the demon beasts in the sea were either covered in hard armor or covered in silver scales, and they were all drenched and wet and rushed towards the shore; They either spread their legs and feet and threw off their steps towards the monks, or they rushed out of the water with the swing of their fins and tails, and smashed straight down from the air at the monks; Either they were small but crowded together, crawling silently towards the shore, or they could not get out of the water at all, and only pointed their long tentacles at the monks on the shore in the water and swept away; Some of them also shot powerful arrows from the water and rushed to the shore, while others stood up from the shore with sharp claws, dragged their long tails, and screamed and tore at the monks on the shore!
The happiest person is Lu Pingchuan, at first he rushed in front with his hands wide open, but after defeating a few demon beasts, he was knocked down by a big fish with a white belly and black back that fell from the sky, the size of the big fish is not much bigger than Lu Pingchuan, and he kept shaking his head and biting it under his body, and the sharp teeth in the big mouth "clicked" to collide and bite, but Lu Pingchuan's head was almost pressed under the belly of the fish, where could it be bitten? Just when Li Jian was about to help, Lu Pingchuan came out from under the big fish with a force, and then dragged the tail of the big fish that kept shaking in annoyance, and threw the big fish towards a big tree on the shore with a turn, "boom", the big tree was knocked crookedly, and the big fish kept writhing in the weeds and bushes.
Qian Chao knew that this was caused by the opening of the formation, and he had thought that someone would use a few spiritual veins near the Cold Spring Valley as tricks and feet, and in the second exploration near the Cold Spring Valley a few days ago, he had roughly found out the distribution of the spiritual veins near the Cold Spring Valley.
In Qian Chao's view, the spiritual veins near the Cold Spring Valley are scattered a little sparsely, even if the spiritual veins change on the day of the tide, the value of use is not great, some formations that can be arranged with spiritual veins that directly hurt people cannot be arranged here in the Cold Spring Valley, but with Qian Chao's own means, on the day of the tide, it is also possible to arrange a formation that makes many demon beasts not afraid of life and death, go crazy, and go berserk, but it is much more complicated, since Qian Chao can do it, Then Wen Liang, those guys have made up their minds to do it in Cold Spring Valley, and it is likely that this formation will also be used.
In that exploration, Qian Chao also made some arrangements, but what he arranged that time was not a formation, but a talisman, a hidden talisman, as long as someone arranged the formation and launched it, as long as the spiritual veins changed because of that formation, the talismans arranged by Qian Chao before would be triggered, so that Li Jian perceived them, and then Li Jian told Qian Chao where the talisman was triggered, which was equivalent to Qian Chao knowing clearly how the formation changed the spiritual veins around this Cold Spring Valley.
Qian Chao made a serious guess about how Wen Liang would use this tide day, although he could not finally identify Wen Liang's means, but Qian Chao always felt that one thing was worth noting, that is, on the day of the tide, whether it was the demon beasts on land to deal with the demon beasts in the sea, or the monks to deal with the demon beasts in the water, no matter what, there were always a large number of kills on this day, and there would be countless demon beasts dying on this day. If Qian Chao is a person with a dark heart, if all this is arranged by him, it would be a pity if many souls dissipated like this, those are good materials for performing evil arts, and they must be used well, if they are arranged somewhere in advance, Qian Chao is also sure that on this day, with the help of the souls of the demon beasts that continue to die here, a terrifying evil beast will be created, and then strengthened with the help of the spiritual veins here, in that case, the evil beast will be rampant, even if it can't kill Yan Shuang, it will be enough to make many monks suffer heavy casualties, Then the back hand that was arranged in advance took the opportunity to stand out, and took advantage of the fact that the monks were either tired or injured and made a contribution in one fell swoop!
The formation that was launched in front of him had two uses in Qian Chao's opinion, one was to consume many monks through layers of fierce sea demon beasts, in this step, the more tired the monks were, the more beneficial it was to those guys who were hidden behind the scenes; The second is to urge many demon beasts to go ashore through the formation to fight hard, whether it is against the demon beasts on land or against many five spirit cultivators, it will always cause a large number of casualties, and this is also necessary for the use of evil arts.
Therefore, Qian Chao came to Cold Spring Valley a few days in advance and made targeted arrangements, and several of them arranged a lot of formations in advance along the Cold Spring Valley. Qian Chao's formations are also cleverly arranged, they are all iron brands the size of a human face, all of which he refines in his residence, and the formations are arranged on it, as long as they are hidden in a secret place, this is also the first time Qian Chao has used evil arts, and the effect of these formations is that once someone or demon beasts around them die, their souls will be absorbed and banned by these formations arranged by Qian Chao.
Before doing this, Qian Chao explained to a few companions that he would definitely not continue to use the banned souls, and then he would destroy these iron cards and let the banned souls return to this heaven and earth. And the reason why such a formation is arranged is only one purpose: that is, to compete for souls with possible evil beasts!
As long as there is less soul on the beast, then its power will be weaker, and the damage it will cause will be smaller, and this money tide is undoubted, so even if there is a beast, it will be easier for people to deal with it.
Therefore, when the formation was launched, and then what happened was almost the same as what Qian Chao had predicted in advance, Qian Chao had a bottom in his heart, and he probably knew how to deal with it next.
However, even if they have the bottom in their hearts, for the five people of Qian Chao and others such as Luo Ying and others, the sudden changes in these demon beasts in the sea in front of them are still very surprising.
In one sentence, it is: a steady stream and not afraid of death!
Now among the five people, Lu Pingchuan has been in the front, and then Li Jian and Yan Xuan.
And among these three people, Yan Xuan's power is still in the first place at this time, since the demon beast in the sea went crazy and rushed to the shore, Yan Xuan's Fengling Fire Knife has played a huge role, Li Jian may be able to deal with it, but Lu Pingchuan must be difficult to deal with so many guys with only a pair of fists. In front of Yan Xuan, all kinds of shelled and armored ones, wielding claw pincers, with sharp claws, stretching long beards, opening their mouths to show sharp teeth, spitting black juice or water arrows, rushing quickly or crawling slowly, roaring or silent, black pressure pressed a large piece, in these rushing demon beast groups, from time to time there were flames like fire phoenix feathers swept by, and the firelight flashed from time to time, and the sound of "clacking" sounded together, Those demon beasts, whether they were wearing a hard shell or wearing thick armor, were all cut into two pieces under the Fengling fire knife, like the waves of wheat under the sharp sickle, even if those who came close to the ground and water surface were short, the dense guys could not escape in front of Yan Xuan, when her phoenix breath technique was used, in the sound of the phoenix, a red and bright blazing flame gushed out, and the "Bibi peeling" where those guys were burned exploded again and again, and the mist of salty smell was steaming, A burst of burnt aroma of roasted seafood spread, making Lu Pingchuan couldn't help but swallow his saliva and looked straight in front of Yan Xuan.
And Li Jian is also frequent swords here, on the side of Yan Xuan's fire knife, Li Jian is considered to be for her to check and fill in the leaks, and swim around her, the group of demon beasts is too dense and too dense, Yan Xuan can't cut them all, whenever there are demon beasts from the gap of Yan Xuan's fire knife, Li Jian is a sword stabbed over, the demon beasts in this sea have seen a lot, Li Jian also touched the fatality of many demon beasts clearly, when a sword is stabbed, he will never collide with these guys, and he will find the fatal weakness of their bodies. After the spirit sword pierces, it will never stab the second sword again.
As for Lu Pingchuan, he is even busier, he has found that every time he kills a guy, he is not as leisurely as before to see what he gains, although there is Yan Xuan in front, but one by one the demon beasts keep rushing from the water, which also makes him scramble, and the big fists keep smashing out, "pounding", and smashing those guys juice everywhere.
And behind the three of them are Qian Chao and Tang Ping, there are always demon beasts from the water to pounce from above, Tang Ping's two blade-winged warblers are hovering above her head, whenever a demon beast jumps, pounces or smashes over, the two big birds will fly one by one, the sharp feathers are strangled for a while, and after the blood light falls, it is just a few corpses of the demon beasts. On the ground, Tang Ping's "Ah Tu" is also constantly patrolling at her feet, if there is a demon beast that can fall, that is when "Ah Tu" is happy, it only exposes the sharp dorsal fin on the ground, and swims around the falling demon beast a few times, as if a few sword lights flashed against the ground, and then the falling demon beast was also cut into several sections.
Because of the efforts of four partners, Qian Chao seems to be very leisurely.
He looked to the side.
Nearby, Luo Ying, Yan Shuang, Lu Shuang, Wen Yuan, and Luo Bin were in a row and together, all of them used their means to resist the various demon beasts that rushed up, as well as Fan Yan, Ma Hu, Fang Yang Fang Han, Cui Yin, and Gu Yuan, all of whom stood in a row facing the direction of the water, and all kinds of means came out to resist the demon beasts that kept rushing out. In front of these people, the flames flashed, and from time to time a large fireball flew out and rushed into the group of monsters and exploded, accompanied by a strange hiss, those guys kept running with flames all over their bodies until they died; or ice flying, pieces of ice crystals shoot out like stars, and they fall down as they see them; From time to time, sword lights fluttered and flew, penetrating the bodies of demon beasts in the sound of "click".
It's also able to resist these monsters.
But if this continues, there will always be times when you are tired, exhausted, and your aura is exhausted, and then you will fall into the trap of the guy who launched this formation.
Qian Chao was naturally unwilling, and he had already taken countermeasures.
After a few tricks, a ball of light gushed out, rotating on the top of Qian Chao's head, and then divided into many shining points of light and spread out, and finally these points of light circled out a large piece of Qian Chao and others in it, and finally with a trick of Qian Chao, these points of light fell down with a brush.
It is the Locking Spirit Formation, but Qian Chao has figured out a new method, which can combine several Locking Spirit Arrays together, so that the range of control is much larger.
And these people had already put that small wooden sign on their bodies according to Qian Chao's instructions, and even Tang Ping's Ah Tu had tied a small wooden sign like this around his neck in advance, so that when the formation fell, they would not be affected by this formation at all.
Qian Chao did this, just to save effort, who knows what kind of situation there will be today, his own aura can be saved, and it is used to deal with the things that follow.
Li Jian, Lu Pingchuan and Yan Xuan also saw the fall of the formation and knew that it was Qian Chao's means.
Now it was lively, and the five of them were extremely relaxed all of a sudden.
As long as it is a demon beast that rushes in, it is all paralyzed to the ground after stepping into the formation, and it can't even make a half-hum, if it rushes over with a fierce momentum, it also pounces forward, "snaps" and falls to the ground as if drunk, and after falling to the ground, it can no longer move, so that Li Jian only needs to walk in front of the demon beast that fell to the ground, and can take its life with a light stab at it, Yan Xuan does not have to keep wielding the fire knife to kill, but together with Tang Ping, he began to help Lu Pingchuan, And Lu Pingchuan began to pick fat and lose weight one by one, first kill and then see what good things this guy has, whether it is a demon pill or anything, Tang Ping will take it first, and then the rest of the eyes will stay, and the ones that can't be seen will be grabbed directly and thrown back into the water, but the action should be sharper, otherwise the demon beasts that keep pounceing behind can pile up a lot in the blink of an eye, but it will also make Lu Pingchuan scramble, constantly complaining that these guys don't know how to die, and then they simply don't look at anything, If you are killed by a punch, you will put it in a bag and check it later.
There was only one situation in this, and a thick, strangely long tentacle stretched out from the water, this thing was hidden behind a group of demon beasts, and it did not attract attention, and it has been hanging on the ground, so it is not affected by the formation of Qian Chao, and when those demon beasts stepped into the formation and fell to the ground, it suddenly "exhaled" and stretched out to wrap Lu Pingchuan into a strong knot, and then a strong force came, grabbing Lu Pingchuan and going to the water.
This time it came down suddenly, everyone was caught off guard, and Lu Pingchuan's body fell into the water with a "bang".
"Brother Lu!" Tang Ping exclaimed and immediately followed.
"Wait!"
Qian Chao saw the cold air in Tang Ping's hand and knew what she was going to do, Tang Ping planned to freeze this large area of water first, and then get Lu Pingchuan out, even if he suffered frostbite once, it would be better than dying in the water.
"Look!"
The water suddenly seemed to be boiling, the waves were surging, and then two huge sounds of "dong dong" came from under the water, and the waves burst into the sky one after another on the water surface, but the water waves were as black as ink, and then half of Lu Pingchuan's body suddenly appeared in the water, and he was grinning towards the shore, shoulders, chest, waist, and one leg were wrapped with thick tentacles, which stretched his body very tightly, but he didn't care, except for his face was a little pale, his spirit was good, While scolding and scolding, he struggled towards the shore, and if there was a lot of resistance in the water, he turned around and grabbed those big tentacles and dragged them a few times.
"Oh my God!"
Qian Chao and several people stood there to answer him, looking in a daze!
Not only them, but even Luo Ying and the others next to them also looked at each other with a little straight eyes!
Dragged up by Lu Pingchuan was a fat, round, two-story tall big guy, this thing has a weird pale color, this guy is full of tentacles, he is being dragged by Lu Pingchuan, he saw that the sword in Li Jian's hand was shining white, and Yan Xuan also had a pair of fire knives in his hand, and hurriedly shouted, "Don't cut, don't cut, you can't pull it up if you cut it!" ”
"Big Cockle!" Tang Ping said in a daze, I didn't expect Lu Pingchuan to be so violent, and he could still escape when he was caught in the water by this thing, no, not to escape, but to catch this big cockle out of the water, it's really ...... That's amazing!
"I'm freezing to death, this water is so cold," Lu Pingchuan dragged the big guy into the formation, and the tentacles immediately went limp and slipped off him, "This is the big man?" It's not big! There's a bigger one in the water, and I don't know how much bigger than it! ”
Lu Pingchuan's words made a few people stunned again, who can know what other powerful guys are under this vast ocean, but this one in front of him is not small, Qian Chao immediately thought of the benefits of the mucus, and immediately said: "Quick, take its eyes, good thing!" ”
After that, the five people still relied on this formation to deal with the surging demon beasts, and the only ones who threatened them were those who jumped out of the water and jumped to the shore, but with the means of the five people, they would definitely be able to land and die.
……
"Senior Sister Luo!" Qian Chao shouted.
"What's wrong?" Luo Ying took a step back and came to Qian Chao with some panting.
"How many sets of locking spirit piles did Senior Sister Luo bring with her?"
"What do you mean?"
"Look."
Qian Chao pointed to his side, there were too many demon beasts in the water, except for Lu Pingchuan's big movement when he entered the water and escaped from danger, which made Luo Ying take a look, the rest of the time she was in a hurry and didn't have time to see how Qian Chao and these little guys coped, and now look at it, Luo Ying immediately understood that Qian Chao arranged a formation there, which should be a lock spirit array, but she immediately saw the difference, first, Qian Chao's lock spirit array was much larger than usual, and second, those little guys actually walked around in the formation, Not affected by formations!
For Luo Ying, who is also familiar with formations, what she sees in front of her is a little incredible.
But I have to say that such a method is indeed simple and effective to deal with the demon beasts that are pouring out in front of you!
"How did you do that?" When she asked, Luo Ying didn't think that Qian Chao would give it all out, but the big deal was that this kid was still helping to arrange the same formation on his side.
What Luo Ying didn't expect next was that Qian Chao actually told her how to arrange a larger locking spirit array without reservation, and then grabbed a wooden sign with silk tape and handed it over.
"Senior Sister Luo, if everyone wears this, they will not be affected by the formation, and we are like this."
Luo Ying also only had one set of lock spirit piles on her body, so Qian Chao took out a few more sets for her.
This can make Luo Ying a little moved, Qian Chao's means must be not easy to get, and now he said it so unreservedly, it seems that this Qian boy is still very reliable at the critical moment, she has a hearty and pungent personality, stretched out her hand and patted Qian Chao on the shoulder, and said:
"You're good, money boy!"
The wooden plaque was divided, and everyone wore it on their bodies, and then Luo Ying used it according to the methods taught by Qian Chao, and a cluster of light scattered out, enveloping these people in it, and when it fell, it immediately changed.
The monsters that rushed over fell to the ground one by one, and it was easy to deal with it again, and it was easy to take their lives with a sword at will, and then they stayed if they wanted, and kicked into the water again with a kick that didn't fit them, as long as they didn't pile up a big pile in front, this really made Luo Ying and Fan Ji relaxed, and there were more people on Luo Ying's side, compared to Qian Chao's side, it was more relaxed.
Fan Ji touched the small wooden card hanging on his waist, and then looked at the various demon beasts on the ground that were not dead but would never move again, and sighed that this formation was really ingenious, he heard the origin of this formation from Luo Ying, and looked at Qian Chao, those junior brothers and sisters were also there to deal with the demon beasts unhurriedly, after this incident, Fan Qian was full of good feelings for Qian Chao, and secretly said that this Qian junior brother and the sect are of the same heart, and so smart, they will definitely be able to be of great use in the future.
……
However, compared to the ease of Qian Chao and Luo Ying, the rest of the Cold Spring Valley around this big water is completely different!
The many demon beasts that kept pouring out of the water only suffered at this point in the money tide, but in other places, they had the upper hand.
Many demon beasts on the shore were affected by the monsters in the water, and they were originally tightly attached to the shore, but now the formation is uneven, and many places have been washed ashore by the monsters in the water, and the monsters in the water either have fins and tails or are full of scales, and they are actually chasing those monsters with sharp minions on the land on the shore and retreating!
However, there are also fierce land monsters that are not afraid and have been trying their best to resist, often such monsters are either huge and powerful, so they can support them alone, and those monsters that rush out of the water are not opponents at all in front of them, as long as they rush over, they are a dead end. There are also those who are good at coordinating with the enemy's similar monster beasts to work together, such land monsters seem to be generally not large, but the experience of facing the enemy is extremely rich, they are driven by a leader or advance or retreat, the order is forbidden, or feint to lure the enemy or two-sided flank or encircle the combined attack, those ashore water monsters in front of them or besieged to death or dragged exhaustion is inevitably another death. Therefore, regardless of the victory or defeat of both sides, on the shore of the great water of Cold Spring Valley, it sounds noisy, wailing and roaring, and at a glance it looks like mud is rolling, beasts are surging, and flesh and blood are flying!
There are countless kinds of demon birds in the air and the air have also given up hunting from the water, and now they have also aimed their sharp beaks and claws at the guys who climbed ashore, not a team of demon birds swooped down, except for a few unlucky ones who died in the mouths of those demon beasts in the water, most of them were able to fly away with their claws on their claws when they were hovering.
As for the monks, most of them have retreated, and the monks in the circle of Cold Spring Valley have only a dozen people at most, and even Luo Ying's people are a little difficult to deal with, and naturally other people are even more unable to deal with them, and some of them are slow to retreat or greedy, and the result is just a mess of blood on the shore.
Among the people who retreated were Xiao Xian and Min'e, if it weren't for Min'e's premonition that something was wrong, and she pulled Xiao Xian into the air in advance, maybe the two of them would have suffered some injuries, and now their feet are full of dense all kinds of demon beasts rushing indiscriminately, and Xiao Xian is still a little red-eyed.
"Senior Brother Xiao, you can't take risks, you have gained a lot today, even if you go back now, you will have a lot of gains, if you are greedy, beware of the danger of going down, the gains outweigh the losses."
It was rare for Min'e to persuade like this, Xiao Xian naturally followed the advice, nodded in agreement, and then Xiao Xian looked left and right, and the other nearby monks had already flown up and stared down, including the neighboring Cheng Qiantang and Mei Qing.
But then cut into the distance, Xiao Xian actually found that Cao Ze didn't move, and he was still there to deal with the demon beasts that came up layer by layer, I have to say that although this Cao Ze is an out-and-out disciple, but the cultivation and means are really superior, and he actually did not fall behind under the siege of those demon beasts!
……
And Qian Chao is here to deal with those demon beasts while waiting for things to continue to develop.
There will always be development, Qian Chao doesn't know what the next means of Wen Liang and those people will be, but since the formation has been activated, there must be a backhand, anyway, it is also prepared to come, just wait.
Not only Qian Chao and the five people were waiting, Fan Ji was also waiting, after dealing with those loose cultivators at night last time, Fan Ji also wanted to know what new tricks those guys would have if something really happened this time.
However, they waited for a while, and instead of waiting for those guys to deal with Yanshuang's new methods, two people fled in a panic.
One man and one woman.
The man was half covered in blood, apparently suffering minor injuries.
"Help!" The woman shouted first, full of panic.
"Save ...... Help me! The man shouted weakly.
Qian Chao and several people were naturally attracted, and after seeing the people who came, they couldn't help but be surprised in their hearts, Qian Chao found that the injured one was actually ......
Han Jin!
