Taisheng Tianchan 3. Luchun County
Xuzhou is a hilly land with many hills. Tokai-gun is the county of hills. Luchun County is located at the top of the mountain forest, surrounded by clouds and mist all year round, as if it is above the clouds.
Because it is located on the top of a mountain, the layout design of Luchun County is simple. There is only one street in the entire county, which winds along the rolling hills. The street is flanked by houses. The houses are supported by bamboo and timber and are built on a half-slope. On the left and right, as far as the eye can see, there are hills. Although it is autumn, the mountains and forests are green and verdant, and there is no yellowing.
On weekdays, the county is always bustling, but at the moment it is very lonely.
Sidao fell from the sky and landed in Luchun County. He strolled down the street. He looked at the desolate streets and suddenly remembered the town of Autumnwater. Once, the town of Autumn Water was invaded by demons. All the inhabitants were killed, leaving not a single mouth alive.
Luchun County is somewhat similar, but it is a little different. Luchun County was also violated by demons, but it was not slaughtered.
Under the scanning of his divine sense, Si Dao saw that there were mortals in each house who survived. When the mortals sensed someone passing by outside, they trembled and were very afraid. Mortals seem to think of Si Dao as a demon.
It stands to reason that after the demon goes crazy, he is bloodthirsty and cruelty, and he will not leave a living person at all. But why, there are so many living people in Luchun County? Could it be that the demon suddenly found out with his conscience, so he let these mortals go?
Si Dao couldn't figure it out. But he didn't let his guard down. Instead, he was more careful, unleashing his divine sense to explore everything around him.
He suddenly spotted the trail of the formation. The arrangement of the formation is very mature, not like that of a wild demon, but like a human monk carefully arranged. Moreover, this human monk is very calm, and he has definitely not lost his mind.
This formation has not been activated, and I don't know who arranged it? Perhaps, the Heavenly Zen Sect has already sent someone here. This formation may have been arranged by the previous Heavenly Zen disciples. Somehow, that Heavenly Zen disciple didn't activate the formation.
Suddenly, a sense of crisis surged into Si Dao's heart.
Si Dao had another idea—if this formation was not arranged by the Heavenly Zen disciples, then who would arrange it? There was only one answer. If this formation is not arranged by the disciples of Tianzen, it must be arranged by demons.
The demon deliberately did not activate the formation, so that Si Dao could relax his vigilance.
Si Dao adjusted his breathing, no longer only using his divine sense to detect everything around him, but opening up the perception of the will to live. In an instant, he noticed that inside a house, a man's will was far greater than that of other creatures. Obviously, this man is not mortal. This man used a certain way to hide his aura, and his cultivation realm could actually hide the detection of his divine sense.
Under the detection of divine sense, men are just mortals, mixed among mortals, and there is no difference between them. These surviving mortals became the best hidden umbrellas.
Si Dao was just about to subdue the man, but he found a man who exuded a strong demonic aura flying from a distance and landed directly in front of him.
The demonic man cultivated to reach the pinnacle of the foundation, his eyebrows were arrogant, and his breath was weird. What's even more conspicuous is that this demonic man is actually wearing the costume of a Tianzen disciple. Could it be that the demon who plagued Luchun County was a disciple of Tianzen?
Si Dao couldn't help frowning. There is only one kind of most terrifying demon: the fallen immortal disciple. This kind of thing has not happened in the history of Hehuan. It's just that Si Dao has never really met him.
Unexpectedly, the first demon he met when he came to Taisheng was a disciple of Xianmen. In fact, the probability of a Heavenly Zen disciple falling is much higher than that of the Hehuan Sect. This has a great deal to do with the ideological systems of the two schools. The Hehuan Sect only accepts elite disciples, and is taught by Uncle Jiedan. Once a disciple has a problem, Uncle Jiedan can immediately correct it. The Heavenly Zen Buddhism accepts disciples widely and adopts a free-range education. Naturally, Heavenly Zen disciples are more likely to go astray.
"The master sent you?" the strange man asked.
From the conversation, Si Dao learned that the demon in front of him was indeed a disciple of Tianzen. Moreover, the demonic man has a clear mind and is not obsessed with the acquisition of power, which is completely different from ordinary demons.
It's not the first time Si Dao has encountered a demon with reason. In the Spring Kingdom, the Singe of the Lord of the Divine Hidden Palace is a demon with reason. It's just that the sin song is crazy, full of magic, and fits the character of the demon. The strange man in front of him was calm and abnormal, although he was flamboyant, he was not crazy at all.
"Wei Wuxian asked me to come. ”
Si Dao said, revealing his identity mark.
"Sure enough, Senior Brother asked you to come?" the strange man looked pained.
It sounded like Wei Wuxian was the senior brother of the demonic man. Moreover, the strange man cared about Wei Wuxian very much.
"Yes, he asked me to kill you, and then I completed the introductory trial and became a disciple of Heavenly Zen. ”
"Kill me?" the strange man sneered, "You are only a first-level foundation cultivator, and your aura is not stable, I'm afraid you have just stepped into the foundation building realm." Even if you want to kill me, I'm afraid it's going to kill you. How could my brother send someone like you? Did he really think that I would become a demon who could not see me?"
"You know Wei Wuxian very well?" Si Dao asked suddenly.
"Once, I was in the same class as my senior brother. Once, he and I were best friends. Once, I didn't call him Senior Brother, but called him Traceless. However, he has a high level of talent, and his cultivation is progressing extremely quickly. I couldn't catch up with him at all. Soon, he became a senior brother of Tsuki. And I'm still a little brother of Qi refining. The strange man reminisced about the past.
However, the demonic man is not really chatting with Si Dao, but is stalling for time. He was waiting for the formation to be activated.
According to the normal process, in the case of the defeat of a Heavenly Zen Foundation Cultivator, the demonic man thought that there would be an extermination team here. So, he carefully designed the layout.
However, the person who actually came here was a lowly stranger.
Rao is so, the strange man is not careless. Everything went according to plan and went very smoothly. When Si Dao entered the center of the formation, he came out and dragged it and waited for the formation to be successfully activated. No one would have thought that the demon would have an accomplice. No one would have thought that this accomplice was a fellow Tianchan who came to kill him before.
Before Si Dao, the Heavenly Zen Sect had already sent a foundation building monk here. However, the ending was a surprise. This foundation building monk was actually "bewitched" by a demonic man, and chose to devour living beings and choose to become a demon. However, the Heavenly Zen Sect only thought that the previous foundation building monk had died at the hands of the demonic man.
Originally, in the idea of the demonic man, using the above-mentioned psychological loopholes, as long as the demonic man appeared, he could reduce the defense of the extermination team. At that time, the formation will be activated, and he will be able to kill everyone in the extermination team in one fell swoop. It's a bold idea, and it's an idea with a high probability of implementation.
But at the moment when it was done, a small ice crystal suddenly appeared in the demonic man's divine sense.
This ice crystal appeared so suddenly, and so fast, that the strange man didn't even react. The demon who pretended to be a mortal didn't react either.
Ice crystals are small and hard, easily piercing through several walls. The demon pretending to be a mortal had been concentrating on activating the formation. He thought he was done, but suddenly noticed an extra ice crystal on his side.
At this time, the strange man in front of the road shouted loudly: "Danger!"
However, the ice crystals had exploded, and it was too late. Ice crystals explode, generating incredible power. At close range, without any defense, Ice Lotus's chain of explosions was enough to kill anyone.
When the demonic man delayed time, Si Dao was not the same. He wrapped the ice crystals with his divine sense, so as to avoid the detection of his divine sense. Then, when the two demons thought they had the chance of victory, Si Dao sent the ice crystals out.
The moment before the victory, anyone will let their guard down. The two demons also let their guard down. Then, by the time they reacted, it was already too late.
