Chapter 125: Danger at Sea
Under the traction of the huge palm, Yun Tianyang, the leader of the Bamboo Shadow Gang and the disciple of the Great Dao Sect, was the first to be pulled out of the phantom array.
When the two of them came out of the battle, they were all disheveled, obviously just doing something unspeakable in the illusion.
The leader of the Bamboo Shadow Gang among the two is okay, after all, not many people on this floating island will pay attention to him.
But Yuntianyang is different.
Seeing that Yun Tianyang was disheveled, Li Zhuo subconsciously looked at Yun Rusong, revealing an embarrassed expression.
The latter also turned his head away, and his face was ashamed.
"Ahh
He let out a long sigh and was silent for a long time.
Seeing Yun Rusong stunned in mid-air, Li Zhuo didn't say much, and only controlled the huge palm by himself at the moment.
The giant hand reached into the phantom array and fished out the last Jurui and the president of the Dragon Head Society.
When Jurui came out of the battle, he held a wine jug in his left hand and a large piece of barbecue meat in his right hand.
He had a stomach full of food, and from time to time he muttered words like 'good wine, keep drinking'
Compared to Jurui, the Dragon Head Guild will be much more exaggerated when it comes out.
He held a blade in each hand, and his body was covered in blood, as if he had just killed many people in a fantasy world
The dragon head guild leader who had just come out of the battle had a crazy and distorted smile on his face, as if he had not yet woken up from the phantom array.
He looked around.
Wherever he looked, all the monks subconsciously retreated, but Thunder still maintained that proud look and looked at him.
"Hey,"
Seeing that Thunder dared to look directly at him, the president of the Dragon Head Guild didn't say a word, and rushed towards Thunder with a blade.
"What are you going to do?"
At the critical juncture, the thunderbolt who realized it after realizing it used his escape method, turned into a bolt of lightning and disappeared from the spot, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow of the dragon head guild president.
The next second.
When Thunder reappeared, he couldn't help but spurt out a large pool of blood from his mouth.
Obviously, the life-saving method he used just now has certain side effects. This retreat will cause some damage to yourself.
The thunderbolt who used the escape method to save his life looked at the president of the Dragon Head Society with hatred.
He was about to make a counterattack, but he saw Li Zhuo suspended in mid-air suddenly make a move, and pointed at the leader of the Dragon Leader.
At the same time, he shouted: "Idiot, don't wake up soon!" ”
With just one finger, the president of the Dragon Head Association fell to his knees as if he had been struck by lightning, and showed a look of astonishment.
Less leaning.
After he reacted, he clasped his fist at Lei Ting, and said apologetically in his tone: "I'm sorry to make you laugh at Lei Daoyou." ”
"It's fine."
Lei Ting was obviously seriously injured by the president of the Dragon Head Society, and it can be seen that when the other party apologized to him, he still unconsciously forgave the other party.
He raised his head as if he didn't care, and looked proud.
Seeing his attitude, the president of the Dragon Head Association praised in a timely manner: "Lei Daoyou is magnificent! ”
The corners of Thunder's mouth were slightly raised, and he didn't speak.
Now that all the monks have come out of the battle, Li Zhuo ordered a total of six people who passed the assessment of the phantom array, including Chengsheng, Ni Li, Po Yazhi, Lei Ting, Zhong Ran, and the great Buddhist monk Wu Suffering, to lift their chests and clothes together.
Seeing that there was an extra tentacle mark on the chest of the six people, he said with a satisfied face: "Okay! Not bad! This time, six of you actually passed the assessment, so that my Great Liang Kingdom is expected to avoid this Western catastrophe! ”
Hearing this, Lei Ting couldn't help but speak: "Senior Li, since we have now obtained the sequence of 'Woo Wow', a breakthrough to the deep diving period is just around the corner. ”
"Can you tell me how the imperial court intends to stop the Western catastrophe? How should we cooperate with the monks who have obtained the 'sequence'? ”
"Well," Li Zhuo thought for a moment and said, "First of all, you need to know that not only are the indescribable creatures, they are too powerful for humans to defeat, but even the offspring they derive, those giant fierce beasts, are also difficult to deal with. ”
"It's not that I can't defeat those monsters if I wait, it's just that if we want to kill them, we need to pay a considerable price."
"You must know that even if you add the six people you have just obtained the sequence, the future deep diving stage cultivators of my Great Liang Kingdom will only be nine at most."
"In contrast, the number of giant beasts derived from 'Woo' is as many as dozens or even hundreds."
"So it's definitely not wise to fight those monsters."
"So the only thing I can do during the deep diving period is to try to keep them from being seen by the monks and people of my Great Liang Country."
"Try to keep them out of sight?" Li Zhuo's answer made Cheng Sheng unclear: "What do you mean?" Could it be that as long as those giant beasts are covered, they can prevent the Western Tribulation from spreading to our Great Liang Country? ”
"You're not wrong to understand that."
Li Zhuo explained: "It's the same as 'woo'. The giant beasts derived from 'Woo' all regard us humans as ants, so they will not take the initiative to attack humans. ”
"The real horror of giant beasts is that they can spread 'whimper' pollution"
"This pollution is what our monks call 'the power of flesh and blood'!"
"People who are polluted by the 'power of flesh and blood' will be magnified by the desires of the heart, which include: jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, gluttony, and lust, a total of six kinds of desires."
"People who are magnified in their desires will not go crazy, let alone die, and will even become stronger because they have the 'power of flesh and blood'."
"So pollution itself isn't terrible."
"The real horror of the 'power of flesh and blood' is that it can clash with the 'power of suffering' of the 'Buddha'"
"I don't need to say more, you all know in your hearts: desire and pain are two completely opposite emotions in themselves."
"It's like water and fire, light and darkness, good and evil."
"So these two forces are incompatible in the human body."
Floating islands.
Listening to Li Zhuo's explanation, Ni Lihu, who was born in Yin Si Jian, retorted: "But the problem is that although the 'power of flesh and blood' and the 'power of pain' do clash within the monk, this conflict is not impossible to resolve. ”
"As we all know, monks who are polluted by the 'power of flesh and blood' and have a conflict with the 'power of pain' in their bodies can alleviate the mutation and various negative effects to a certain extent by going to places such as Yin Sijian or suppressing them with secret methods."
After some analysis, Ni Li continued: "So from this point of view, the giant beast that can spread pollution doesn't seem to be so terrifying, does it? ”
"No, you're wrong."
Li Zhuo shook his head and said, "The 'power of flesh and blood' that is now spreading in the territory of my Great Liang Kingdom is all left over from the ancient immortal ruins ten thousand years ago. ”
"For example, the blood forest outside Ruyun City, such as the temple that appeared in Yin Sijian before."
"The pollution contained in these ruins is nothing compared to the giant beasts."
"The contaminated monks are only mutated in appearance and a little abnormal in their spirits."
"But the giant beasts are different."
"Don't say you're facing them head-on, even if you just look at them from a distance, you'll immediately have a lot of 'flesh and blood power' in your body."
Li Zhuo described: "When you look directly at the giant beast, you will feel indescribable horror and horror, and your heart will beat uncontrollably. ”
"Your flesh and blood all over your body seem to be burning."
"In the days that follow, you'll still think of the beast you've seen from time to time, and you'll continue to feel the horror that will make you terrified."
Li Zhuo recalled: "More than a hundred years ago, I was only in the middle stage of the Blood Pill. I still remember that it was during that time period that in the western part of Xingzhou, I was in the western part of the Liang Kingdom, and countless giant beasts suddenly appeared. ”
"At the beginning, we monks didn't know how powerful those fierce beasts were, so we planned to attack them head-on, and even formed a special team to defeat them."
"But when we faced the fierce beast head-on, we didn't even have time to make a move, just a glance from a distance, everyone immediately collapsed, and the spiritual will completely collapsed."
Speaking of this, Li Zhuo looked at Yun Rusong, who was not far away.
He continued, "At that time, Yun Daoyou and I were far away from that giant beast, and we were lucky enough to survive. ”
"The rest of them either died on the spot in that catastrophe, or they couldn't bear the fear of the beast and committed suicide shortly after they fled."
Li Zhuo finally said, "Now, do you still think that those giant beasts are not terrifying? ”
Just one glance can make people be dominated by fear, fall into madness and commit suicide, or even die on the spot.
Such a terrifying existence was completely beyond the cognition of all the monks present.
So for a while, everyone showed a look of jealousy.
Cheng Sheng followed Li Zhuo's words and said, "So, what we monks who have obtained the sequence have to do is to 'hide' the fierce beasts that have invaded the territory of my Great Liang Kingdom after breaking through to the deep diving period?" ”
"Well, you can understand it that way."
Li Zhuo added: "And not only must the beasts not be seen, but also their voices and even their breaths must be hidden, so that the areas that the beasts pass through will not be affected by the mortals and low-level cultivators." ”
Floating islands.
After explaining the horror of the giant beast and how to deal with it, Li Zhuo waved his hand and summoned the flying boat he was on.
"Let's go."
After everyone jumped on the flying boat, Li Zhuo also flew up.
He said to the people on the flying boat: "It is still about five months before the Western Tribulation comes. ”
"When I return to Bianjing, I will mobilize all the resources in Daliang's country, and then do everything to cultivate a few of you to ensure that you can break through to the deep diving period as soon as possible."
With that, he piloted the flying boat to leave from the floating island
I don't know how long it has been.
"Woo~" The monks were riding the flying boat, and suddenly heard a hissing sound that resounded through the heavens and the earth, sounding from the clouds above the sky.
Li Zhuo, who heard this voice, was shocked, and immediately put away the flying boat under his feet like a conditioned reflex.
He spoke extremely quickly and rushed to Chenghuo and the others: "Quick, everyone disperses in different directions, and then stand still in the air and don't move!" ”
Seeing that Li Zhuo's tone was short, coupled with the hissing sound that had just come from the clouds, it was indeed terrifying.
So the monks didn't ask questions, but hurriedly scattered in a direction that didn't stop.
When the monk cultivates to the stage of fetal construction, he can fly with objects.
When a monk cultivates to the Blood Pill stage, he can be suspended in the air without the help of any utensils.
Therefore, being still in mid-air is not a difficult task for a Blood Pill Stage cultivator who has survived.
Air.
At the moment when everyone dispersed, a huge fog the size of a human city and shaped like a jellyfish slowly floated over from the clouds.
This giant creature in the shape of a jellyfish has two extremely long tentacles trailing behind it.
Cheng Huo visually inspected it:
The body of this giant thing, plus the two tentacles, is about four or five thousand meters long, to say the least.
This giant jellyfish couldn't help but remind Cheng Sheng of the giant whale he had seen in the western part of Xingzhou.
It's the same as a giant whale.
The hissing sound of the giant jellyfish is so quiet and distant that it trembles.
Out of fear of this thing, and also in order not to be affected by this thing, Cheng Sheng glanced at it, then turned his head away and looked elsewhere.
He tried to think about other things as well.
Doing so will distract you from paying too much attention to the sound of the giant jellyfish.
Giant jellyfish don't swim very fast in the air.
Time passes.
As the giant jellyfish got closer and closer, including the survivors, all the monks held their breath.
I am afraid that the sound of breathing will attract the attention of the jellyfish and cause disaster.
A long time passed like this, until everyone in the air could no longer hear the jellyfish's chirping, and Li Zhuo summoned the flying boat again.
He said, "It's all right, everyone get on the flying boat." ”
When they saw the Feizhou Chengsheng and the others, they all showed a look of palpitation, and they all had a trace of curiosity.
Li Zhuo explained: "What you just saw is also a fierce beast derived from 'Woo Woo'. ”
"The difference with the fierce beasts of the West is that, according to ancient records, these fierce beasts have appeared on the sea as early as tens of millions of years ago."
"If we compare humans to cattle and sheep raised by unknown creatures, then the giant jellyfish you have just seen are 'fences' that limit our range," Li described. ”
"They exist to prevent monks and mortals from crossing the sea."
"Because of this, the Gu Immortals used to call this kind of fierce beast 'patrol envoy', which means the messenger who patrols the forbidden land."
"All ships and monks in the sea area of five hundred miles, as long as they do not take the initiative to provoke these fierce beasts, they will not be attacked by them."
"And if you enter a place outside the sea of five hundred miles without permission, you will be frantically pursued by these fierce beasts."
"On the sea, in addition to the fierce beasts derived from the 'Woo', you can occasionally see the fierce beasts derived from the 'Buddha'."
"And the closer you are to the boundary of the five-hundred-mile sea, the greater the chance of encountering a fierce beast."
So, is this the real reason why humans can't set foot in the area of the 500-mile sea?
Hearing what Li Zhuo said, he realized what he had to do.
He took the opportunity to ask: "So, if we fail to stop the Western catastrophe and want to flee to other places, then the first question we have to face is the pursuit of these fierce beasts?" ”
"Not bad."
Li Zhuo nodded and said, "Moreover, since the fierce beasts are all flying in the sky, it is far safer to sail by boat from the sea than to fly directly with a weapon. ”
Li Zhuo's answer couldn't help but recall what the black phantom on the Shinto Ding had said when he was in retreat in the woods before.
'Unspeakable creatures pay much less attention to the sea than to the land, because there are few people on the sea. ’
In addition, the giant beasts are all flying in the sky
So going to sea by boat is really the safest choice in desperation.
