Chapter 559: The Second Plan
Black Forest Altar.
The Holy Maiden of Zeeland spread out the silk handkerchief stained with the blood of countless people, and engraved the spell she knew by heart with blood-colored strokes.
When the spirit stone watch hanging around her neck began to turn, the sound of the bell rang with a heavy and pungent smell of blood poured into the nostrils of the Zeeland Holy Maiden, and the already weak and boundless body was covered with cracks at this time, oozing a little blue blood.
Zeeland Sanctuary.
Shangguan Tianxing put on a new robe and stood at the highest point of the imperial altar, he was the high priest of this country, and he was the most trusted person for the emperor Shangguan Mu, but at this moment, he did not go to the palace to divinate the emperor according to the agreement with the emperor as before, but stood on the altar and cut his cheek with the sharp knife in his hand, allowing the blue blood to drip on the gems that covered the ground.
By the time the attendants waiting outside the altar heard the sound of Shangguan Tianxing falling to the ground, it was already too late, and Shangguan Tianxing had already turned into a huge demon shadow in the blue blood wave.
"This, this is the Black Shadow Beast that the High Priest once predicted to appear!"
"Hurry up and report to the emperor, just say that the high priest Shangguan Tianxing has been devoured by the demon shadow, and he is destroying the altar at this moment!"
The sudden change in the High Priest Shangguan Tianxing made it difficult for the attendants to calm down, not to mention that the huge Demon Shadow could crush them all with just one finger, and compared to the Demon Shadow, even the entire dynasty's army combined was no match for it.
And just when the palace was in turmoil, the Zelan Holy Maiden in the Black Forest, that is, Shangguan Ruying, the biological daughter of the high priest Shangguan Tianxing, woke up unharmed in the same wave of blue blood, and even the grass and trees under her feet were not harmed in the slightest.
Shangguan Ruying, who had woken up slowly, looked down at the spirit stone watch hanging around her neck, and found that the pointer of the spirit stone watch had indeed turned around, but she did not change into a huge black demon shadow as the prophecy said, and her complete and familiar body made her heart startled, and she immediately turned her head to look at the silk handkerchief that was prevented from the stone slab.
"Could it be that the spiritualism technique has succeeded?"
Unlike the priests of ordinary dynasties, Shangguan Tianxing and Shangguan Ruying, who are covered with blue blood, can use their own bloodlines to make extremely special summons, and what is usually summoned by 'aliens' like them is a powerful existence that can tip the balance in dynastic wars, but the price they need to pay is unimaginable.
It's like Shangguan Tianxing, who has transformed into a demon shadow, and the huge demon shadow is the price he paid for the spiritualist spell.
However, no matter how Shangguan Ruying checked her body, she didn't find the slightest injury or mutation, but the silk handkerchief spread out did not become what she needed because of the spiritualist spell.
After thinking about it, Shangguan Ruying, who thought that the spiritualism had failed and therefore did not pay the price, was about to leave, but unexpectedly, a stranger suddenly fell from the canopy above his head.
The appearance of the strange man, Shangguan Ruying racked her brains and couldn't think of a reason, and she slowly sensed a powerful smell from the man's body, which made Shangguan Ruying very excited and wanted to wake up the man immediately.
Shangguan Ruying stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the man to wake him up, but unexpectedly, there was a complex spell mark on the man's body, which would be blocked or even violently rebounded whenever any living creature approached him.
Shangguan Ruying, who was not skilled in learning, could withstand such a counterattack, and soon collapsed to the ground due to lack of strength, and could only reluctantly stand up against the trunk behind him and continue to look at the strange man in front of him who was still unconscious.
It wasn't until night, when the stars began to twinkle and the moon shone brightly, that the sleeping man opened his eyes.
"You're awake!"
Shangguan Ruying leaned against the trunk of the tree angrily, put his hands on his waist, and said angrily with a pout.
"Who are you?"
The strange man grabbed his messy hair like a chicken nest and stood up, and while approaching Shangguan Ruying, he asked in a hoarse voice: "I remember that I should be refining a formation, but I never wanted to be swept into the void space by a blue light..." Feed! Who the hell is it? Why am I here? โ
"Formation?" , Shangguan Ruying sneered: "Don't talk nonsense, the formation is the most difficult to cultivate and arrange in the world, and even the formation mages of the dynasty are difficult to arrange, let alone you?" I look at your thin appearance, I'm afraid you can't even lift the stone slab behind you."
The man didn't bother to talk to Shangguan Ruying, but groped for a dull stone from the robe he was wearing in his arms, and put it in the palm of his hand to make it light up with bursts of colorful light.
The appearance of the colorful glimmer immediately made Shangguan Ruying's eyes widen, because the stone that was pinched by the man in his hand at this time was the spirit stone that could be used as the eye of the formation when it was used to arrange the formation.
"Could it be... Do you really know how to set up formations? โ
Shangguan Ruying's surprised expression at this moment made the man very useful, only to see the man come up to her, pinch her chin with a hand that was not holding the spirit stone, and whispered: "Didn't I tell you that I would arrange the formation, now what you see is only the lowest-grade spirit stone I have refined, if you are willing to become my servant, maybe I will give it to you, how about it?" โ
The preciousness of the spirit stone was indeed enough for Shangguan Ruying to choose to become a slave of the man, but the man did not wait for Shangguan Ruying to respond to his proposal and got out, only to see him walking in front of him while playing with the spirit stone in his hand, while looking at the starry sky above his head and not knowing what he was thinking.
'This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it is a spirit stone that has never been encountered in the entire Zeeland Holy Land! โ
Seeing that the man who had been summoned to this world by himself was about to go away, Shangguan Ruying, who knew that he couldn't miss this opportunity, immediately followed with his already dirty skirt.
"My name is Shangguan Ruying, and I am a priest in the Holy Land of Zeland, what about you? What's your name? Following the man closely, Shangguan Ruying finally opened his mouth to ask about the identity of the other party.
"Me?"
The man threw the spirit stone that emitted a colorful glimmer to Shangguan Ruying, and waited until Shangguan Ruying hurriedly protected the spirit stone in his hand before he replied with a smile: "My name is Ma Wu, and I am a formation master. โ
"So your name is Ma Wu"
Originally, Shangguan Ruying wanted to say something, but a sudden loud noise behind her made her have to dispel this thought.
And it was precisely because of her turn that she didn't see the weird smile on Ma Wu's face just after she turned around.

Zeeland Sanctuary, Sacrificial Hall.
"Are you saying that this huge monster in front of you is the High Priest Shangguan Tianxing?"
The emperor, who had been raised by years of conquest, thought that he would not have any timidity in the face of any difficulties, but when he witnessed the high priest who had turned into a black shadow trampling one expensive palace after another and roaring in front of him, Cheng Dali, wearing a crown and a royal robe, fell to the ground.
The soldiers who held back the black shadow fell like dominoes, and in the end, Nelson, the chief of guard of the Zeeland Sanctuary who was responsible for protecting the emperor, had to carry the already limp emperor away from the imperial court as much as possible.
But the black shadow didn't seem to intend to let go of Emperor Cheng Dali like this, when it found that Nelson had left the sacrificial hall with Cheng Dali, a cloud of black gas condensed in its mouth, and then only saw the shadow open the bottomless huge mouth and roared loudly, a ball of light as black as ink was like a crossbow arrow, blasting through Nelson's chest, Emperor Cheng Dali had no way to live this time.
"Nope! Shangguan Tianxing! โ
"Do you remember who I am? I'm Cheng Dali, your friend Cheng Dali, who grew up with you! โ
In the face of impending death, the only thing Cheng Dali could do was to kneel under the abyssal jaw of the black demon shadow and beg for mercy, and even counted the past with his friend Shangguan Tianxing in his childhood, in an attempt to awaken the sanity of Shangguan Tianxing, who may still have a little bit of it.
"It's ridiculous to try to use friendship to awaken the sanity of those who have passed away"
"The Black Demon Shadow is condensed by the evil qi of the underworld hell, and once it is contaminated, it will be swallowed in an instant, that is to say, at this moment, Shangguan Tianxing is no longer Shangguan Tianxing, he is your enemy"
A dazzling bright light streaked across the sky that was gradually obscured by a black shadow, and when it touched the black qi that was about to devour Cheng Dali, he immediately unfolded a colorful magic circle to protect it firmly behind.
"This... This is a spirit stone? โ
Looking at the colorful magic circle that protected himself in the rear, Cheng Dali suddenly remembered that this was the brilliance that only spirit stones would bloom, and spirit stones were 'divine objects' that only existed in rumors
"You still have some eyesight"
Holding the colorful stone floating in mid-air in his hand again, Ma Wu suddenly jumped out from behind Cheng Dali, and then stood in front of the huge black demon shadow like this, and confronted it with his waist in a particularly confident manner.
"It's your luck to meet me today", Ma Wu raised the spirit stone in his hand to make the black demon shadow afraid and did not dare to continue to step forward, and he talked to Cheng Dali behind him and said: "My name is Ma Wu, and I am the spirit stone master who came here from the Twelve Divine Hall, and this black demon shadow will be handed over to me to deal with!" โ
Spirit Stone Master? But when did a spirit stone master appear in the realm of Zeeland Holy Land?
Cheng Dali looked at this young man who looked no more than twenty years old in disbelief, although he had doubts in his heart, he could only stay in place and wait for the other party to destroy the black shadow.
"Resentment condenses evil, and the black shadow that finally forms is a war weapon used by the evil gods of the Netherworld to conquer the god realm, if it is solved by ordinary methods, it will inevitably give it a chance to resurrect, so if you want to do it once and for all, you still need to rely on the power of the spirit stone!"
"Monster, let's see the move!"
The spirit stone on Ma Wu's body was not just that, when the black demon shadow was determined to swallow Ma Wu who was blocking him into his stomach, Ma Wu took out another stone from his sleeve, and the mark engraved on this stone was slightly different from the colorful stone in front of him, and the light emitted by this stone was a dazzling flame.
In the books of the sacrificial hall, it is also known that this flame is called "the divine fire from the heavenly way", and it is said to burn all the evil in the world.
When the flames began to burn, the black demon shadow actually showed the intention of retreating, and all the survivors could see that this black demon shadow who paid attention to covering the sky and the sun actually wanted to escape from the burning of the flames at this time, but how could Ma Wu, who claimed to be a master of spirit stones, let the fat in his mouth slip away like this.
With the spirit stone in his hand, he drove the flames that burst out from it, allowing the flames to completely block the retreat of the black shadow.
Seeing that the black demon shadow that was surrounded by flames and could not escape began to roar loudly, Ma Wu, who suddenly felt that there seemed to be other evil aura gathering, finally put away Fang Cai's hanging appearance, and began to recite the spell seriously, and the moment the first word of the spell came out of his mouth, the flames that were originally just floating suddenly rose.
In an instant, the firelight lit up the entire sky.
"I want to summon the messengers of the Netherworld to help you... I, Ma Wu, won't let you get your wish! โ
Ma Wu, who knew that this matter could not be dragged on, took out another flame spirit stone and set it on fire, so that the flames raised by the two flame spirit stones together finally made the black demon shadow trapped in the flames lose the strength to resist, and the howl was slowly inaudible, and the extremely distant evil aura that Ma Wu detected also became blurred at this time.
This made Ma Wu very relaxed, and he casually focused his whole body on dealing with the black shadow.
The divine fire from the Heavenly Dao can burn everything in the world.
When the divine fire met the evil of the Netherworld, the battle situation was already one-sided, and the black shadow gradually collapsed in the flames and turned into a sigh of black water, Shangguan Tianxing's figure unexpectedly appeared in front of Cheng Dali, this time, not only Cheng Dali, but even Shangguan Ruying, who had just rushed back here, also dissuaded Ma Wu from continuing.
But where would Ma Wu listen to the persuasion of Cheng Dali and Shangguan Ruying, only to see him release the flame in the spirit stone again, and let the flames completely swallow Shangguan Tianxing's figure before turning around and saying to the former: "I have already told you very clearly, the Shangguan Tianxing you saw in front of you has already been devoured by evil, and the reason why it will appear is that evil has seized the weakness in your heart and wants to use your weakness to force me to release the flame magic."
"Once I do that, then the Black Shadow will reappear, and maybe even more evil things due to its resurrection!"
Without giving Cheng Dali and Shangguan Ruying a chance to stop him, Ma Wu was determined to completely wipe out the black demon shadow.
Whether it was Cheng Dali's request to call his friends or Shangguan Ruying's cry from his father, he couldn't shake Ma Wu's half a point, and the flames burned the black gas in the sky and the black water on the ground into ashes, and standing in front of Cheng Dali and Shangguan Ruying, he stepped forward and collected the ashes.
After pocketing the ashes, Ma Wu didn't wait for Cheng Dali and Shangguan Ruying behind him to speak or have other actions, and immediately activated the spiritual power in his body and began to attack.
This is also his first shot after being punished by Heavenly Dao, and I don't know how many years have passed since the last time.
And with his cultivation realm, it can be said that it is easy to deal with these people behind him, and he defeated Shangguan Ruying and Cheng Dali, who were full of disbelief, in a few minutes, and stuffed the ashes they got into their mouths.
Soon.
After being forcibly stuffed into the ashes, within a few minutes, Shangguan Ruying and Cheng Dali's bodies began to change just like Shangguan Tianxing just now.
A few more hours passed, and the entire Zeeland Holy Land was reduced to a netherworld purgatory full of black figures, that is, demons and demons.
But this time Ma Wu did not leave, but chose to hibernate.
He planned to go out and start his second project himself when he was ready.
Next, he only needs to control these demons and demons to go to other dimensional spaces, and these demons and demons will subtly erode other dimensional spaces to help him realize his plan.
However, his plan ultimately failed.
Because after leaving Donghai City, Cao Chuan found his location alone, and broke into the reincarnation domain with one person and one sword.
