Chapter 153: The situation deteriorates
"Silence~"
With a long shout from Long Yang Zhenren, the head of the Yuqing Palace, who was wrapped in rolling vitality, the entire square instantly fell silent again, but everyone's emotions were still shocked.
Although the strength of the demon beast is strong, comparable to that of a monk, after all, the demon beast is only a mutated and evolved version of the beast, and it has not completely broken away from the category of the beast, and its combat power is mainly manifested in the flesh.
For example, the body is stronger, the claws are sharper, the flying ability is stronger, and even in battle, you can use the aura to launch some instinctive attacks, and occasionally there will be some demon beasts because of the awakening of the ancient bloodline to produce some spell-like skills, but these skills are innate, and cannot be enhanced through cultivation, they can only be slowly improved with the increase in strength, and the use is not as casual as a monk, but an instinctive release.
But this mutated soul beast was able to evolve an attack ability similar to an immortal path spell by devouring a fusion monk, which was very terrifying.
Fortunately, if a soul beast devours and fuses a Danyuan Realm powerhouse, it will not be a simple third-order demon beast's strength, because there are dozens of spells that Danyuan Realm powerhouses will have, and they are all extremely powerful, if the soul beasts can learn and apply them, it will be the same as a disaster.
The Yuqing Hall was the main force in suppressing the soul beasts in the Black Wind Ridge at the beginning, and the inner and outer disciples went to nearly three hundred people at the beginning, and there are still about a hundred people who are resident in the Wild Wolf Valley now, and they will take turns to guard them all year round in the future.
The number of soul beasts that gushed out from the gap in the formation was tens of thousands, and for this reason, the entire Great Song Immortal Realm paid the price of hundreds of monks and casualties in just a few days, and finally these soul beasts were slowly killed and re-stabilized the formation seal.
Although in the end, the soul beasts still escaped a lot, but in the eyes of all the monks, these are irrelevant, even if they enter the mortal realm, they will not cause too many casualties, not to mention that there are also many scattered cultivators and immortal cultivation families among the people, although the strength is not good, but after encountering it, they will still be killed, and if they can't resist, they will notify the nearby immortal sect to deal with it.
As for the soul beasts, the feelings of the people in the Yuqing Hall are the deepest and clearest.
After all, the casualties of the Yuqing Palace can be said to have never been so tragic in hundreds of years.
An elder in the late stage of the Danyuan Realm, two core disciples of the inner gate, and eight disciples of the True Yuan Realm were collectively severely injured under a powerful giant spider soul beast, if it wasn't for Xu Chen's timely arrival, and then Xuanchen Zhenjun made an urgent move, these people would all have to die.
But even so, Xu Chen couldn't save those eight True Yuan Realm disciples.
The strength of that giant spider soul beast should be less than the third order, which was a reasonable speculation made after reviewing it afterwards.
The strength of the giant spider soul beast lies in its strong body and sharp hook claws, and its most terrifying skill is the black spider silk that spits out, almost no one under the Danyuan realm can resist, once it is stained with cobwebs, it will be scattered in an instant.
There are a lot of similar weird abilities of soul beasts, which have already made all monks feel that they are not easy to deal with, if soul beasts can also evolve spell-like skills by devouring monks, then they are basically impossible to fight.
The monks will do the same, and the monks will not, and so will the monks, especially the strange power of the divine soul happens to be the weakness of the middle and low-level monks.
With one trade-off, the situation may soon be reversed.
At that time, it will not be the immortals who kill the soul beasts, but the soul beasts who will start chasing and killing the immortals.
Therefore, Yuyang Zhenjun is just a simple sentence, and it can be said that it has set off turbulent waves in the hearts of the entire Yuqing Hall monks.
Xu Chen was no exception, this information was far beyond imagination, and when it was linked to the current situation of soul beasts raging in the Eastern Wilderness and Wu Guomingguo, he felt that the situation seemed to be far beyond the control of the immortal realms of various countries.
"At present, a large number of mutated soul beasts have appeared in the surrounding countries, among which there are strong ones that are no less than the strength of the mid-Danyuan realm, and the country of Wu has been attacked by a large number of mutated soul beasts in the Eastern Wilderness, the monks of the fairy realm have suffered heavy casualties, and the deaths and injuries of the people in the mortal world are incalculable, many cities have been occupied by soul beasts and built into nests, and there is not a single living person and a beast for hundreds of miles, the capital of Wu has begun to suffer from soul beast attacks, and in the border counties of the Great Song Dynasty, a large number of soul beasts and mutant soul beasts have also begun to appear......"
Yuyang Zhenjun briefly made a brief report on the situation of this trip, and finally said to all the monks with a solemn face:
"All the elders and disciples listened to the order, from now on, the Yuqing Palace will arrange a large number of disciples to go down the mountain to clear the soul beasts in various places and maintain the peace in the Song Kingdom, and I and Senior Brother Bai Yun will also contact other immortal sects to act together, and at the same time, we must also assist the neighboring immortal realms to jointly suppress the black wind and eliminate the high-level demon beasts, if it is allowed to develop, it may only take two or three years, and the entire world will become a place where soul beasts are rampant, with hundreds of millions of casualties. Eliminating demons and defending the way is the responsibility of our generation of monks, and it is unshirkable to go up to the heavens and save the common people. ”
"Follow the order of Elder Yuyang Taishang!" A group of elders and disciples rushed together to receive the order.
Yuyangzi retreated, and Bai Yun Zhenjun stepped forward and said: "Although a few of our old guys no longer interfere in the affairs of the Mountain Gate, this matter is not trivial, and the lessons of the changes in the Black Wind Ridge are still in front of us, so we must not slack off in the slightest. The strength of mutant soul beasts is weird, different from ordinary soul beasts, and it is more difficult to deal with, so when you disciples go down the mountain to clear the soul beasts, you must always have more pills and magic weapons, so the Dan Hall, the Qi Hall, the Array Hall, and the Fu Hall Halls must act urgently to step up the storage of the elixir magic weapon spirit runes, as for the other spiritual tea brewing and many other unrelated industries in the outer gate, all of them are suspended, and the manpower is filled into other important halls......"
"Follow the order of Elder Bai Yun!" After Bai Yunzi finished speaking, the entire square responded with a bang.
Xu Chen was mixed in, and suddenly had a different understanding of the previous contempt of the Yuqing Palace.
Although the internal hierarchy of the Yuqing Hall is strict, and the various sects compete for power and profit, it seems that people are indifferent to each other and do not care about each other, but in fact, when encountering urgent events, the strength shown is very strong and united.
Moreover, in the two matters of killing soul beasts and suppressing the aura of the netherworld, the Yuqing Palace has indeed achieved the point of fighting without regard for life and death from top to bottom.
It is precisely the Yuqing Palace that can shoulder morality in this way, so it also allowed the two worlds of the Great Song Dynasty to escape a catastrophe.
In fact, the most grateful to Yuqing Hall and Longmen Mountain is Taiyuan Gate.
The two places where the Netherworld Qi leaked in the Great Song Dynasty Realm were near the Taiyuan Gate, and even if it was out of control and impacted, it would definitely be the Taiyuan Gate that would suffer first.
And the Yuqing Palace, which is the farthest away, can almost be unscathed, after all, there are thousands of miles between the two gates.
It seems that this is the greatest heritage of an immortal sect that has been inherited for thousands of years.
The word morality is the true core of a sect's inheritance.
For a moment, Xu Chen felt a little ashamed and guilty.
During the time he stayed in the Yuqing Palace, he seemed to be too selfish, he was not active in alchemy, and he only remembered all kinds of benefits.
Not to mention the countless inheritance knowledge he learned from the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, at present, there are thousands of kinds of elixirs on his body just from the Yuqing Palace, and he also won various treasures worth tens of thousands of spirit stones in the alchemy gambling battle.
Of course, guilt is guilt, and it is completely impossible for him to spit it out.
Yuqing Palace's shoulders of morality and demon eradication are certainly worthy of his worship and reverence, and he feels the impact of his soul, but in the final benefit of this matter, Yuqing Palace still took the lion's share.
After all, the pay is directly proportional to the gain.
There is a cloud in the Tao Sutra: Heaven and earth can last for a long time, because they are not self-generated, so they can live forever. It is to be the saint after his body first, and the outside of his body, with his selflessness, so he can become his selfishness.
Because Yuqing Hall did not consider selfish interests, he stepped forward to kill soul beasts to maintain peace and tranquility in the world, but in the end, he would get the greatest gain.
This kind of harvest is not only about wealth, but also about fame and strength.
Because by killing soul beasts, not only will you get a large number of soul beads, but also a large number of disciples will increase their strength through this kind of training, and they may even discover the reason for the mutation of soul beasts, and unlock some secrets related to the Netherworld Qi from them, so as to find another new path of cultivation.
Thinking of this, Xu Chen suddenly remembered the situation when Taiyuan Gate was raising Xuanshui Youlian underground, and his heart jumped suddenly, and his brows tightened.
At the beginning, did the Taiyuan Gate also discover something in the midst of the rampant soul beasts and finally began to study the Xuanshui Youlian?
If this is really the case, will the Yuqing Palace also embark on this road in the future?
For a while, Xu Chen was a little nervous inexplicably.
"Xu Daoyou, you don't have to worry, the territory of Taiyuan Gate and Song Kingdom is still very safe at present!" Lan You thought that Xu Chen was worried that things would change to the point that it would be difficult to clean up, so he whispered comfort.
Xu Chen could only nod and said: "With the three true monarchs of the Yuqing Hall and the elders, and so many fellow Daoists going down the mountain, I think the mutated soul beast will be controlled soon, but I am thinking about the Boundless Ancestor I met last time, if he can't catch that primeval beast back as soon as possible and suppress it in the Netherworld Passage, I don't know how long the soul beast disaster will last?" ”
Lan You's face also showed a hint of nervousness after hearing this, and he nodded slightly: "That's true, but it's useless for us to worry about this kind of thing, this time Lan You will definitely go down the mountain to kill the soul beast, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany Xu Daoyou anymore." Fortunately, Xu Daoyou has read all the scriptures in various places during this time, and he didn't come in vain. ”
Xu Chen suddenly grinned and said: "Yes, this kind of thing is indeed not something that we should consider, a few True Monarchs and the seniors of the Danyuan Realm will naturally deal with it comprehensively, let us do whatever we want, Lan Daoyou still need to be careful when he goes down the mountain, you also saw the mutation of the soul beast last time, it is very bloody and terrifying, if it is a soul beast that has mutated and evolved a spell skill, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with, so don't be careless." ”
Lan You felt an inexplicable sweet hint of happiness in her heart, bowed her head and nodded lightly with a red face: "Xu Daoyou is also careful, the next time we meet, I don't know when it will be!" ”
Xu Chen couldn't help but let out a long breath and said, "Yes, this soul beast doesn't know when it is a head, it seems that it has just begun!" ”
