Chapter 856: The Plague
The immortal road is bumpy, after all, there are a few successful people, and there are many people who fall halfway, each with its own destiny, and they can't force it.
Huo Xuan was also uncomfortable in his heart about the misfortune of the Tiandumen Elder and the Dragon King Huo Yunfei's brothers, after all, the two brothers Tiandumen Great Elder Tianshuzi and the Dragon King were both from the Huo family, and in a real sense, they were his elders.
Sighing in his heart, Huo Xuan hated the Vientiane Divine Cult even more, and had made up his mind to uproot this cult and seek justice for those innocent victims.
"What is the Celestial Crystal?"
It is inferred that the Dragon King brothers were devoured by the Celestial Crystal Worm, and their bones were gone. Huo Xuan had never heard of the name of this insect, and if it was estimated to be good, it should be inseparable from the mine here.
"This underground vein contains a large amount of celestial crystal, which is not difficult to mine, but it is extremely dangerous. Yuan Bao said, "In the Tianjing mineral deposit, there is a strange insect that is accompanied by it, the appearance and shape are no different from the Tianjing, it is usually dormant, once it is alarmed, it will immediately attack, its shell is dozens of times better than the Tianjing, it is indestructible, it moves like the wind, it comes and goes without a shadow, if there is no special means, even if the Golden Immortal is strong, it will definitely die!"
So powerful!
Huo Xuan was shocked when he heard this, and his curiosity was even greater. According to what Yuan Bao said, this Heavenly Crystal Worm is so powerful, with the highest level of hard labor in the mine cave that is no more than the cultivation of the Heavenly Immortal, how can it survive here safely?
"This day crystal insect is powerful, we can't resist it at all, but it also has a weakness, that is, it is afraid of the Yin Yang Mountain's specialty immortal spring. The Venerable took out a jade bottle from his bosom, and when he opened it, there were two or three drops of milky white liquid inside, exactly the same as the immortal spring that Yuan Bao had taken out earlier and had broken the shell of the celestial crystal.
"With this immortal spring in your body, once you encounter the Celestial Crystal Insect, you only need to spill it. The Celestial Crystal Worm sniffed the breath and immediately retreated, not daring to take half a step closer. Venerable Mighty put away the immortal spring and said one more word: "However, the number of this spring is very small, except for a few people such as me, there are no living dead people outside, therefore. When they were mining, once they encountered the Celestial Crystal Worm, there was no second way but to die, but fortunately, this Celestial Crystal Worm was strange by nature, as long as it devoured the flesh and blood of the Immortal Family, it would immediately fall into a deep sleep and no longer pose a threat to the others in the mine!"
According to them, the only feasible way to encounter the Celestial Crystal Worm in the mining process is to encounter it. It is to seal the mine immediately. The shell of this insect is indestructible, and even the Golden Immortal powerhouse is certain to die, which is a last resort, and at the same time greatly affects the mining progress.
Yuan Bao and other immortals who are not controlled by the secret law can be regarded as the head of this mine, and the Vientiane Divine Sect will issue mining tasks to the meeting every month, and if it cannot be completed by the expiration date, there will be a series of punishments.
"I'd like to see this Celestial Crystal Worm. What the hell is that?"
When Huo Xuan had this request, Yuan Bao and the others looked at each other one by one. No one said yes.
"Master, the crystal insects were too weird that day, once they encountered a large number of insect swarms and did not have enough immortal springs, they would definitely die. Qingqing persuaded beside her. Peony also nodded straight.
"If it were something else, Master might be afraid of one or two. It's just bugs, out of the way. Huo Xuan smiled, his face full of confidence.
Everyone couldn't resist him, so they could only nod their heads in agreement. When he was about to leave, Huo Xuan ordered the copper plate. Take care of Kong Ping's people, don't let them go out, and when they come back, relieve them of the method of dementorship.
Under the guidance of Yuanbao, they soon came to the large grotto in the outside world, and as far as the eye could see, tens of thousands of laborers were working here, and the surrounding walls were full of dense honeycomb-shaped holes, some people entered and exited, and some caves were sealed by rubble.
Yuan Bao casually took Huo Xuan to the entrance of a cave sealed by gravel, and said with a finger in his hand: "This mine was mined half a month ago, when three Tianjing worms appeared in it at once, and after devouring several people, they were sealed and abandoned by us. ”
Huo Xuan nodded. The next moment, Ah Tie strode over, came to the entrance of the cave, swung a punch, the rubble splashed, and a black corridor appeared, one zhang high and five feet wide, which could accommodate two people walking side by side.
Under Yuanbao's arrangement, the rest of the people all stayed outside, and only he and Ah Tie followed Huo Xuan in. Walking into the road, it was pitch black, and the scene could not be seen clearly, and the ingots were pinched, and a ball of fire appeared, floating in the air above its head, not extinguishing or extinguishing, illuminating the surroundings.
Huo Xuan walked in the front, Yuan Bao Ah Tie followed behind, and the three of them strode forward. This mine cave is extremely deep, winding hundreds of zhang away, there are traces of excavation on both sides of the stone wall, and the black-brown mountain rock, under the reflection of the firelight, flickering faintly.
"Brother Huo, this mineral mountain stone is very hard, and it is very difficult to excavate, even if there is a hammer made of the shell of the celestial crystal, it will take two or three months to dig out a mine like this. Yuanbao's words sounded in his ears.
After Huo Xuan heard this, he immediately stretched out his hand, touched it on the stone wall mountain rock, and nodded: "This mountain stone itself is a refining material, and if it is refined, the magic weapon it will become can at least reach the top immortal weapon level." ”
"This Yin and Yang Realm, as well as this Yin and Yang Mountain, is full of treasures, but it is occupied by the miscellaneous members of the Vientiane God Sect, and the sky is not open!" Yuan Bao complained. If he can obtain the resources of this small world instead of being trapped here, he should be like his big brother Huo, create a great foundation, and make a fortune in the fairy world. Now, he has been reduced to a prisoner, and his life is in danger.
"It won't be long before I let you and Ah Tie become the masters of this Yin and Yang Realm. Huo Xuan turned his head and said to Yuan Bao Ah Tie, his face full of confidence.
"Brother Huo, it's up to you!" Yuan Bao was full of excitement after hearing this. The same goes for Ah Tie.
Walking along the road, after a stick of incense, Yuan Bao opened his mouth to warn, "Brother Huo, be careful, there is the end of the mine in front, and those Tianjing insects should be not far away." The three of them were full of footsteps, and under the reflection of the firelight, they didn't go far, Huo Xuan made a discovery, on the stone wall on the right side of the front, three black spars could be clearly seen, the shape was exactly the same as the spar that the ingots had taken out before, and under the light of the fire, it emitted a faint glow.
"That is the Celestial Crystal Worm, which is no different from the Celestial Crystal from the outside, as long as there is a foreign object touching it, it will immediately wake up from its slumber and attack a qiē intruder. Yuan Bao lowered his voice and pointed to the front and said.
"You wait here for me. ”
Huo Xuan didn't look back, and ordered. Stride alone. Yuanbao Ah Tie did as he said, standing ten zhang away and waiting, both of them took out a jade bottle at this moment, held it in their hands, and their faces were full of vigilance.
When he came to the stone wall, Huo Xuan looked over. The three black hedrons were embedded in the stone wall, motionless, showing no signs of life. He was amazed, and exuded the power of Dayan to inspect the past, who expected that the power of Dayan touched it slightly, and the strange spar surface flashed, and three phantoms flew out of the stone wall like lightning, and shot towards Huo Xuanmian's door.
"Brother Huo, be careful!"
Yuan Bao and Ah Tie, who were paying close attention to the movement not far away, warned loudly at this moment. The two of them rushed almost at the same time, holding the jade bottle and about to throw it.
"Stand there and don't make a move!"
Huo Xuan snorted lightly, and then, his hands grasped weakly, and his movements were fast, grabbing the three phantom shadows that came into the air. A 'squeak' scream came, accompanied by a slight tingling in his palm, and he looked at it. Three black beetles appeared in his hands, their shells identical to those of the spars. A pair of huge clawed claws stretched out, desperately biting their palms.
It's a pity that Huo Xuan's physical body is so strong that he has become a mixed immortal body, as strong as King Kong, and the mouthparts of the three heavenly crystal insects are sharp. It was also difficult to hurt his fur.
Being caught, the three Heavenly Crystal Worms struggled desperately while biting, with great strength, and even Huo Xuan felt that his palms were a little unable to hold them. Beside. Yuan Bao and Ah Tie were dumbfounded when they saw this scene, they didn't expect that their eldest brother Huo would be able to subdue the Tianjing Worm with the power of his physical body.
Have the heart to try, how hard can the shell of this Heavenly Crystal Worm be? Huo Xuan's five fingers were closed, and he suddenly exerted his strength, exerting nearly eighty percent of his strength, and with one hand, the three Heavenly Crystal Worms actually endured it hard, but the strange screams became more and more dense and urgent.
"Good guys!"
When Huo Xuan's palm strength increased to ten percent, he still couldn't crush these three insects, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed, he suddenly lifted his breath, and the power of the Yuan Magnetism in his body burst out, and in an instant, his right hand flashed with five-color spiritual light, dazzling and dazzling, containing supreme power, but in an instant, the two Heavenly Crystal Worms in the palm of his right hand were eroded by the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, turning into flying ash and scattering to the ground.
The remaining Celestial Crystal Worm in his left hand seemed to sense that his companion was being killed, and kept screaming 'squeak', which was extremely frightened.
"Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, it is really indestructible!"
Huo Xuan killed the two Heavenly Crystal Worms, with a satisfied expression on his face, no matter how hard the shell of the Heavenly Crystal Worm was, it still couldn't withstand the impact of the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light.
He was about to put this Heavenly Crystal Worm into the Nine Peerless Pagoda and raise land, his face changed, he waved his sleeves at Yuanbao Ah Tie, and shouted: "You guys go out quickly!" Between the words, a huge immortal force attacked, wrapping the bodies of the two and flying towards the outside world.
When Yuan Bao Ah Tie escaped, he looked at the stone walls around Yongdao, and there were countless dark light surges, which turned out to be Tianjing insects, densely packed, drilling along the hard mountain rocks of the mineral deposits, and besieging Huo Xuan.
"Brother Huo!" Seeing this scene, Yuan Bao was frightened.
"Quickly seal the entrance of the cave and prevent the Celestial Crystal Worm from running out, I will be fine, at most I will come out in a stick of incense!"
A sound came through the ears, and the next moment, Yuan Bao Ah Tie had already left the mine cave and came to the grotto outside.
"What's going on!"
"Where's my master?"
The people who were guarding outside saw the ingots and iron wolves coming out, and they all gathered around to ask. Yuan Bao was about to speak, but what he saw in his eyes, there were more than a dozen black phantoms shooting out from the inside of the mine, he waved his hand and threw out the jade bottle containing the fairy spring, and shouted in his mouth: "Ah Tie, according to Brother Huo's orders, seal the entrance of the cave!"
Ah Tie also immediately threw out the jade bottle in his hand, the jade bottle shattered in response, and the immortal spring in it turned into a cloud of mist rising under the blessing of the immortal power of the two, and immediately sealed the entrance of the cave, and more than a dozen black phantoms shot out, and when they touched the fog slightly, they immediately 'squeaked' and screamed, and retreated.
"What about Huo Xuan?" Venerable Mighty came to his grandson with an arrow step and asked loudly.
Ah Tie was so anxious that he scratched his head, not knowing how to answer, but fortunately, Yuan Bao was on the side to relieve the siege, and only said: "Brother Huo is catching insects inside!"
In the pitch-black mine, countless heavenly crystal insects gathered from all directions, locked on Huo Xuan, the murderer of his companions, and besieged him. In a moment's effort, Huo Xuan's whole person was submerged by the sea of insects, and he disappeared without a trace.
At a certain moment, the five-colored spiritual light flashed, like countless needles piercing the surroundings, and with a 'bang', I saw countless celestial crystals falling, falling to the ground motionless, and having lost the breath of life.
At this moment, a figure appeared. It was Huo Xuan. Under the bite of the sea of insects, his clothes no longer existed, but his round skin was not harmed at all. The next moment, the countless Heavenly Crystal Worms around him gathered again, and he snorted coldly and waved his hand to sacrifice the Nine Peerless Pagoda. I want to suppress all these annoying bugs.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the Nine Absolute Pagoda came out, a strange force was derived from the surface of those Heavenly Crystal Worms, resisting the suppressive power of the Nine Absolute Pagoda. Huo Xuan frowned when he saw this, and the next moment, a strange flower poked out of the tower, and the flower disc rotated, revealing a hideous mouthpiece, and sucked it suddenly. Hundreds of Celestial Crystal Worms were devoured in an instant.
"Good stuff! I like it, I like ......"
Inside the strange flower, there was a surprise voice from the poisonous mother, only to see the flower disc turning, and a series of black and white beams of light shot out, shrouding the past, countless heavenly crystal insects were taken away and disappeared, and they were all devoured by the poisonous mother.
At most, it is only half a pillar of incense time. The hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Crystal Worms in the cavity were devoured by the Poison Mother. At this time, Huo Xuan's body shook. A new piece of clothing covered his body, his eyes looked at the poisonous mother who was still unfinished, and asked, "What is this worm?"
After killing the Heavenly Crystal Worm with the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light before, Huo Xuan unexpectedly discovered that after this insect was annihilated and died, it actually exuded an extremely strong immortal aura. It is dozens of times stronger than the celestial crystal, so there is this question.
"It is not flesh and blood, it is a spirit insect derived from the power of the Chaos Origin, and after eating, it will be of great use to my cultivation. ”
The flower disc turns. Revealing a woman's face, she bowed to Huo Xuan, and a pair of eyes looked around at the same time, as if she was looking for the trace of the Tianjing insect.
"Can it be helpful for human cultivators?" Huo Xuan asked again.
The poisonous mother thought for a while, and said with some reluctance: "It helps, as long as you destroy a little of your spiritual sense, you can absorb the power of the inner source to improve your cultivation." "This heavenly crystal worm is of great benefit to her after devouring, so she doesn't want to share it with others.
"You've eaten so much, and that's enough. ”
Huo Xuan obviously saw through his thoughts, and with a wave of his hand, the Nine Absolute Towers circled, and after putting away the poisonous mother, he turned into a streamer and disappeared into Huo Xuan's body.
After figuring out the origin of the Celestial Crystal Worm, Huo Xuan immediately walked towards the entrance of the cave, so as not to worry Yuanbao and them. After a few breaths, he walked out of the cave and saw faces full of concern and worry, his heart warmed, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
............
At the southern foot of Yinyang Mountain, there is a mountain peak, and there is a palace on the top of the peak, which is named the Yin-Yang Hall by the Vientiane Divine Sect, which is the place where the two emperors of the Vientiane Divine Sect practice, and it is also the main hall of the high-level discussions.
On this day, above the main hall, there were thirteen immortals standing bowed down, all of them had golden immortal cultivation, and they were separated on both sides. On the top of the main hall, there is a pair of men and women, both wearing Taoist robes, the men's face is like jade, the women's coquettish and moving, looking out of the dust, extraordinary, like a pair of fairy couples, sitting on a big chair together, looking downward, revealing a non-angry and powerful bearing.
These two people are the founder of the Vientiane Divine Cult, the Vientiane Ancestor, and his Taoist companion, the goddess Wan Miao, the supreme existence in the sect, and the only two emperors and powerhouses. The thirteen people below, all wearing gold-robed robes, are the thirteen gold-clothed elders in the sect, and they are also the personal disciples of the two people in Vientiane.
At this moment, the thirteen golden-clothed elders stepped forward in turn to report on the internal affairs of the sect.
"Xiaoyao Linghua, how is the situation in the mine, are those juniors willing to hand over the secret method?" After he finished his confession, Vientiane Ancestor spoke, and a pair of narrow eyes swept to the man and woman standing in the first place below, and asked lightly.
"Master Zun, those damn juniors are very cunning, the disciples have been there three times before, and they have been prevaricated by them under various excuses, that is, they are unwilling to hand over the secret method. The man said. He is the eldest disciple of the Vientiane Ancestor, and his Dharma name is Xiaoyaozi, and his status in the Vientiane Divine Sect is extremely high, second only to the two Ancestors.
"The two masters, according to the disciple's opinion, we should take some tough measures against these juniors, and we are not afraid that they will not compromise and give in!" said another fairy. She is a Xiaoyaozi Taoist couple, and she is also the eldest disciple of the goddess of Wanmiao, within the Divine Sect, the wind of double cultivation prevails, and the thirteen gold-clothed elders in the hall, except for one, the rest are basically double cultivators.
"No, you can't. ”
A soft voice rang out. The goddess Wan Miao shook her head, her lips opened lightly, and she said slowly: "Linghua, these juniors have all kinds of secret methods, many of which are recorded in the book of the earth Zhou Tian's secret methods, which are powerful, especially the "One Qi and Three Clearing" method, which is of great use to this seat and the ancestor, and must not have a little difference, you must get it!"
"The disciple understands. The fairy, named Linghua, bowed down and answered.
"Tianhe Xian, the Great War of the Three Realms is coming, for the Three Realms of Immortals and Demons. It may be a calamity, but it is a great opportunity for my Vientiane God Cult. Vientiane Old Ancestor spoke, his handsome face revealed a trace of ruthlessness, and said in a deep voice: "On the sacred mountain, that fruit is for us. It's not easy to take it, but in the Three Realms melee, if our Vientiane Divine Sect can see the opportunity to strangle several Golden Immortals and seize their immortal roots, we will be able to strengthen ourselves. ”
At this point, he looked at the thirteen disciples below, who were also the backbone of the Vientiane Divine Sect, and said, "The immortal root in your body. It's all this seat and the goddess who have worked hard to snatch it, and this opportunity is coming, and my Vientiane Divine Sect must be prepared from top to bottom, and make suggestions for the growth of this sect, and do my best. ”
"The method of "One Gasification and Three Clearings" is of great significance to this seat and the ancestors, no matter what, you must get it...... If only before the War of the Three Realms. This seat and the ancestor successfully sacrificed the Three Qing Dharma Body, at that time. Even if you kill the Emperor Venerable, it's not impossible!"
When the goddess Wan Miao said this, she looked at the two of them, and said: "Tomorrow is the deadline for handing over the heavenly crystal, you two go together, no matter what method you use, you can get the method of "One Gasification and Three Clearings" for this seat. Remember one thing, don't force the junior named Yuanbao, you must know how to lure, lest this kid die with us and miss a great opportunity!"
"Yes!" the two bowed in response.
......
Three days have passed. After Huo Xuan figured out the situation in the mine, he immediately retreated. His retreat was not for the purpose of cultivation, but for the purpose of using the Divine Soul Control to control those Vientiane Divine Sect members who had been implanted with soul seeds.
Outside the mine, the hundred heavenly immortals who were in charge of stationing, under his control, divided half of them to go to various parts of the mountain gate, and as soon as they had the opportunity, they immediately split the soul species and control the other Vientiane Divine Sect people. 'Senior Sister Du' and 'Senior Brother Yuan', who were the first to be controlled, were not idle, and kept looking for targets.
One is two, two is four, and it is endless. The soul seed of the child and mother spread like a plague in the mountain gate of the Vientiane Divine Sect, and in just two or three days, there were 20 million people from the Elephant Divine Sect who were controlled by Huo Xuan, and all of them were white-clothed envoys, that is, the generation of heavenly immortals.
If it continues to develop at this rate, except for a few high-level Heavenly Immortals, that is, those who have reached the Great Immortal Monarch, the remaining 100,000 Heavenly Immortals of the Vientiane Divine Sect will be completely controlled by Huo Xuan in half a month at most.
Hit the soul seed of the mother and child, there is absolutely no clue from the appearance, and as long as Huo Xuan gives a command, it will be completed according to instinctive nature, although the consciousness does not exist during the period, the personality characteristics are still there, unless carefully examined, no flaws will be exposed.
Under Huo Xuan's control, those people of the Vientiane Divine Sect who were implanted with the soul seed of the child and mother were like an invisible net infiltrating away, and in a moment, all the backbone of the entire Vientiane Divine Sect would be wiped out.
Early this morning, Huo Xuan, who was sitting in the stone room, suddenly opened his eyes, and he was connected with the divine soul, and he noticed that two golden-clothed elders had arrived from the Vientiane Divine Sect people stationed in the outside world.
The next moment, he didn't hesitate, and immediately called Yuanbao A Tie and others to ask about the situation. As soon as he described the physical characteristics of the two gold-clothed elders, Yuan Bao immediately said, "It's Xiaoyaozi and Linghua, a dog man and woman!"
In Yuanbao's mouth, Huo Xuan learned that these two people were the high-level of the Vientiane Divine Sect, and they were also the most trusted personal disciples of the Vientiane Ancestor and the Wanmiao Divine Maiden, and they had always been in charge of the affairs of the mine, as well as forcing the Yuanbao to hand over the secret method and other related matters.
"They will come to the mine once every few months, in addition to collecting the celestial crystal, they are trying to force Lao Tzu to hand over the secret method, and when they leave, the dog man and woman will also take away a few hard labors who have cultivated to reach the heavenly immortals, for them to make up for sexual pleasures. Ah Tie said hatefully. The same is true for others, who hate these two dog men and women monstrously.
Huo Xuan listened, and his heart moved. He immediately came to Yuanbao, whispered to him, and explained. Yuan Bao nodded straight after hearing this, "Brother Huo, don't worry, this matter will be handed back to me, no problem." ”
"The play must be performed enough, the lion must not leave his hand when he opens his mouth, they want to get the remaining mantra of "One Gas and Three Clears", and they will definitely compromise!"
When Huo Xuan said this, his body shook and disappeared immediately. The next moment, he had already come to the grotto outside, and with a pinch of his hands, the whole person immediately changed, turning into a burly and tall man, and his body exuded the high-level aura of the Heavenly Immortals, his expression was sluggish, and he began to work. (To be continued......)
