Chapter 1256: Cold sweat trickled
Although Luo Xiu didn't know where the self-confidence of the system in his mind came from, he knew very well that with the kind of means he had at his disposal, if he couldn't really ensure that everything was foolproof, then he would respond to all changes with the same, which was a better way to deal with the current predicament.
However, after thinking of the news he got from other people, and the reactions of those people, Luo Xiu shook his head helplessly, obviously, things will never be transferred by his will alone, and more importantly, his identity is very embarrassing, for him, once a big war breaks out between the two sides, he will be sent to the front line as soon as possible, and he is doing the most dangerous thing.
Although there is no danger to his life, Luo Xiu does not want to expose his true identity at such a critical moment, which will only attract the suspicion of the Taishang Induction Gate, and the development of things will definitely not be realized one by one according to his ideas, when the time comes, too much uncertainty will make him fall into the situation of being attacked by the enemy, thinking of the terrible situation he will face, Luo Xiu at this moment is actually a little desperate.
"Alas, under the current situation, I can only take one step at a time, I am more diligent during this time, it is best to be able to install monitoring in various key places, and at the same time collect the opinions of everyone in the door, I need the system to help identify useful information, so that I can further be sure that the relationship between the Taishang Induction Gate and the Genting Heavenly Palace is tense to what extent, whether a big war will break out, this is very important, once the two sides really break out a big war, with a monk of my level, will only appear on the battlefield and act as cannon fodder! So I must first find out whether there is a possibility of war between the two major forces, so as to be foolproof!" Regarding the system's explanation, Luo Xiu seemed very calm, he knew very well that the system's words were just comforting.
If he can't get rid of the current predicament further, he knows very well that his future will be bleak, even if he has the strength of the peak of a saint, but in the frontal battlefield of the cultivator war, he can't occupy any advantage at all, although his cultivation is powerful Although it is also a manifestation, it is undeniable that there is really a conflict between these two forces, and there will be countless ordinary people killed and injured at that time, Luo Xiu understands in his heart, including the top of the two major forces, are clearly aware of this, so no one dares to risk the world's condemnation at this time。
Coming to the sect affairs hall, Luo Xiu went straight to the disciples on duty, asking how to go to the banks of the Tongtian River to act as a guardian formation, after all, for him, the old guy never thought about this at all, so when Luo Xiu opened his mouth to ask, these disciples all looked at him in surprise. There is no way, in the entire Taishang Induction Gate, this situation like Luo Xiu has almost never appeared, especially this guy in Luo Xiu's disguise, when Shouyuan is approaching, this kind of person is even rarer.
Although the old man also has a lifespan of more than four hundred years, but for cultivators, in these four hundred years, it is almost impossible to cross a major realm and advance to the Heavenly Immortals, so when Luo Xiu opened his mouth to ask about this, these few people would be so surprised, for them, it was obvious that they could not understand Luo Xiu's thoughts, after all, even if Luo Xiu found a way to break the cauldron and sink the boat, but for this group of guys in the field, they just thought that Luo Xiu was coveting the abundant heaven and earth vitality there, whether he could nourish a more powerful body, so as to delay aging。
And when Luo Xiu knew this information, he couldn't help but gasp a little, he needed 50,000 points of contribution to be able to get this place, and there was no guarantee that he could directly enter the internal cultivation of the formation, he could only wander around the edge of the formation, which was acceptable to Luo Xiu, but hearing the conversation of these people, Luo Xiu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
It turns out that in the Tongtian River, because of the extremely rich concentration of heaven and earth vitality in the Tongtian River, there are also some supernatural creatures in the Tongtian River, although these demon beasts are not strong in combat, but each realm is extremely high, in order to prevent them from attacking the formation, there must be a monk to go to the other side of the formation, always ready to kill these aquatic demon beasts trying to go ashore.
And these aquatic demon beasts that came ashore, one by one, are the kind of suicidal attacks used, almost all the demon beasts are crazy to impact the formation, unless they are killed, otherwise, the attacks of these demon beasts will not stop, in this case, almost a few years, the monks of the Taishang Induction Gate are dying in large numbers, and they urgently need to be supplemented by other monks, so Luo Xiu's previous worries are unnecessary, just thinking that he needs to take risks while paying 50,000 good deeds, it is really a little too wrong, but seeing that these people just showed a mocking look, Luo Xiu did not have the previous worries, and did it。
If it is said that going to Tongtian River to kill demon beasts and guard the formation at the same time, it may be a disaster for others, but for Luo Xiu, it is indeed not a threat to life, he is not the original Xue Gong, for how much strength his predecessor has, he knows very well, the point of cultivation in his previous body, going in is definitely looking for death, but he is Luo Xiu, the existence of the peak of the saint, after entering, as long as he wants to, just the breath, can directly deter the demon beasts, so that these demon beasts dare not go ashore half a step.
And more importantly, for Luo Xiu, it is more suitable for Luo Xiu to guard the formation and kill demon beasts, because it is close to the Tongtian River, as long as he wants to, he can always look on both sides of the Tongtian River, and more importantly, he can also take the opportunity to enter the Tongtian River to have a look, after all, the system's previous speculation is indeed what he wants to verify.
Time passed quickly, two days later, Luo Xiu, under the leadership of a Supreme Elder, took the spirit boat directly towards the Tongtian River, but when the spirit boat passed through the planet's atmosphere, Luo Xiu felt a strong spiritual pressure rushing to his face, pressing on his body, this pressure for him, as long as he gently ran the exercises, he could eliminate it, but seeing the appearance of other people around him who came with him, many people even supported the defensive magic weapon, Luo Xiu of course did not want to attract attention, and also took out a defensive magic weapon from Xue Gong's old guy, and used spiritual power to prop it up。
With that Supreme Elder here, Luo Xiu is extremely honest at the moment, this cultivator is already close to the saint level, and his cultivation is also extremely powerful, especially proficient in formations and the like, in order to prevent his hiding from being seen through, he must be cautious, so he behaves no different from an ordinary monk.
As the distance got closer to the Tongtian River, the shock in Luo Xiu's heart became more and more unable to hide, it was simply a little shocking, and almost made his heart tremble everywhere he looked, he really didn't expect that the spiritual pressure released by this Tongtian River was so terrifying.
With his current strength, his strong physical body was almost immune to all spiritual attacks, but he didn't expect that Tongtian River would release such a terrifying spiritual pressure, and as the spirit boat approached Tongtian River at a high speed, the terrifying spiritual pressure released also made people feel more and more depressed.
And almost at the same time, just as Luo Xiu was about to secretly use his own strength to counteract this terrible oppressive force, the old man standing at the bow of the boat suddenly waved his hand, and a formation defensive cover suddenly appeared, directly covering the entire spirit boat, and then the original endless spiritual pressure suddenly disappeared, Luo Xiu wiped the sweat on his forehead, and put away the defensive magic weapon like everyone else.
Surrounding the more than 20 people, Luo Xiu couldn't help but secretly shook his head, glad that he hadn't been exposed before, otherwise, he would have behaved too differently, after all, his predecessor was definitely a little transparent in the Taishang Induction Gate, even if he sat in the position of the elder of the outer gate, his own strength was limited, and he could only sit in that position by virtue of his deep qualifications, so in a group of young people, he, the old man, was particularly eye-catching, if at this time, he behaved very differently, it was likely to backfire。
"Hehe, I'm not injured, what's the situation here, I think you've seen it just now, this Tongtian River is a treasure for our Taishang Induction Gate, and it is also a deadly threat, you have also seen that the formation we set up is not to prevent the leakage of spiritual energy, but at the same time to extract the spiritual energy, it will also block the threat of the Tongtian River outside the formation, you must remember this trip, don't let those demon beasts on the shore get close to the formation, this formation to extract spiritual energy, just has an extremely ordinary defensive power, almost can not withstand any attack of the demon beasts, so, the pressure of your mission is still very great, The more than 20 of you in the formation group we have, in fact, is only a very small part, when the time comes, you will be disrupted one by one, into those brigades stationed there all the year round, and you will know later, how to withstand the terrifying spiritual pressure, the reason why at the beginning, the old man did not help you block this terrible spiritual pressure, just to let you get used to it, when you want to resist the demon beasts, the sect will issue a special defensive magic weapon, which can isolate the suppressive force of the spiritual pressure! Since you are ready to take the risk to fight here, then our sect will also give you a lot of compensation, elixir, and all kinds of magical powers, as long as you need it, the sect will provide them one by one, over the years, the disciples stationed on both sides of the Tongtian River, although there are also dead and wounded, but in general, it is still very safe, as long as you don't die, no one will take the initiative to attack you, but you must remember, don't get close to the Tongtian River, and don't be touched by the water of the Tongtian River, once it touches your body, you will wait for death, and no magical secret method can save youJust as Luo Xiu was frightened and was thinking nonsense there, the old man standing at the bow of the boat said in a leisurely tone. The seriousness in his words was not disguised at all, and the warning on his face was even more pressed by his powerful spiritual pressure, and the others present did not dare to slack off.
While listening to the old man's words, at the same time, Luo Xiu also looked in his left and right directions, looking at the different expressions of these people, Luo Xiu also sighed slightly in his heart, until now, Luo Xiu understood that these core disciples in the Taishang Induction Sect who were transferred were said to be the core disciples in the door, in fact, they were just sent by people to be cannon fodder.
There are disciples of this level in the entire Taishang Induction Sect, the number of which is not less than one million, there is a branch of the Taishang Induction Gate on every planet, and there are thousands of such core disciples on each planet, such a huge group of monks, the distribution of benefits in it is absolutely extremely cruel.
However, Luo Xiu only sighed like this, and then his attention was all focused on the scene he saw, only to see that on both sides of the Tongtian River, which seemed to him to be extremely unreasonable, the formation runes like spider webs one by one, this kind of pipeline composed of special formation runes, one after another connected each planet, and even as the formation runes approached the planets, the larger the coverage area of this formation, until finally the formation runes wrapped the entire planet, like a pumping machine, extracting the powerful spiritual energy in the Tongtian River, and then sending it into this planet。
It was really hard for him to imagine what kind of terrible power it was to make them so confident that they could survive for a long time through the Tongtian River, and Luo Xiu noticed that the Tongtian River was almost cut off, and Luo Xiu himself felt frightened, it was because of the extraction of thousands of planets that when the Tongtian River flowed downstream, it was directly drained by the terrifying formation, so that the Tongtian River was directly cut off from a distance.
Looking at the scene in front of him, thinking of his previous thoughts, Luo Xiu couldn't help but feel secretly helpless at this moment, fortunately he didn't act rashly before, otherwise, what kind of terrible consequences would there be, I couldn't imagine it, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I didn't dare to imagine what a terrifying scene I would be facing.
If before, he still had some confidence in his own strength, but as the spirit boat got closer and closer to the Tongtian River, the island suspended in the void, one after another strong and terrifying spiritual pressure fluctuations, made him secretly frightened in his heart.
It was only at this moment that Luo Xiu really realized something, before he felt that something was wrong with the number of powerhouses in the Taishang Induction Gate, after all, the Taishang Induction Gate, as one of the only two powerful forces in the entire star field, it was impossible for the top powerhouses to be so little, otherwise, they would have been wiped out a long time ago.
