Chapter 18: The Snake Formation (Part 3!)
Gu Changqing touched his chin when he heard this, feeling a little strange in his heart.
If Lin Yueyao easily killed four eight-rank demons, this Gu Changqing would definitely believe it, because Lin Yueyao originally had the best Dao heart and was extremely talented.
But Hu Shuntang is just a low-grade Dao heart, and he participated in the Dao Gong Division assessment at the age of twelve, how can he have such a high achievement?
I thought about it when Ren Yi said that the Lingzhi Master had seen the future in the Phantom Moon Ancient Cave, and Hu Shuntang might be the son of Destiny.
Is this true?
The man said again: "I heard that Daoyou is also a low-grade Dao heart? Then you are like Hu Shuntang, he is also a low-grade Dao heart." β
"Back then, Hu Shuntang was accepted as the first disciple by the Lingzhi Master of Emei, and the whole Emei County was shocked, Hu Shuntang was obviously just a low-grade Dao heart, how could He De be accepted by the Lingzhi Master as the first apprentice, and later in the Dao Gong Si martial arts test, everyone felt that the Lingzhi Master was discerning. β
"But," the man on the right shook his head and said, "Looking at it now, the original doubt was right, Hu Shuntang became a nine-grade Taoist priest at the age of twelve, but after so many years, he is still a nine-grade Taoist priest, and he hasn't advanced an inch, it's really strange and strange!
"Daoyou's achievements today are really the same as Hu Shuntang's, but I just hope that Daoyou will not follow in his footsteps. β
Gu Changqing nodded and said, "Thank you two for your concern, I haven't asked for advice yet." β
"Under the Black and White Road Palace, goodwill. β
"In the Lower Black and White Dao Palace, Zhang Lin. β
Gu Changqing hurriedly saluted: "It turned out to be a disciple of the Black and White Dao Palace, Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, in Xia Taiyiguan, Gu Changqing." β
Speaking of the Black and White Dao Palace, it is known to everyone in Emei County, and its status is second only to Emei.
In addition to the three ancestral courts, the five major sects, and the Taoist sects founded by the major patriarchs in the Ming Dynasty, there is also a kind of dojo that is the most famous.
That is the Black and White Dao Palace.
The Black and White Dao Palace was founded in the nineteenth year of Yongle.
After Emperor Taizong moved the capital to Beijing that year, he proclaimed himself the True Martial Demon Tianzun and set up a black and white school palace across the country.
The definition of the Black and White Academy is like a school, and it admits potential cultivators to enter it to learn the Tao, but the people who can be included in it must be the children of official eunuchs.
Moreover, once a disciple of the Black and White Dao Palace becomes a Jiupin Taoist priest, he will immediately enter the field of vision of the imperial court and become an alternate official.
It can be said that the most coveted dojo for all cultivators, in addition to the three ancestral courts and the five major sects, is this black and white Dao Palace.
It can even be said that the status of the Black and White Dao Palace is still above the five major sects.
Zhang Lin said: "It's strange and strange, Senior Brother Shang and I came to this snake formation because we heard that there are two huge copper tripods here, and we want to come and see it, I don't know what the ancient Taoist friends are doing here?"
Gu Changqing was stunned when he heard this: "Snake Formation?"
Shang Yu asked rhetorically, "Don't Daoists know the layout of this demon cave?"
To be honest, Gu Changqing's understanding of the Demon Cave is half from history books, and half is hearsay, as for the layout of the Demon Cave in Emei County, he really doesn't know.
"It's strange and weird, don't you buy a copy of "The Story of the Emei Demon Cave" before coming to the Demon Cave?"
"Emei Demon Cave" is the Emei patriarch Chen Tuan ancestor after the discovery of the demon cave, personally into the investigation after the written travelogue, which records in detail the geographical layout and the name of the demon in the demon cave.
Gu Changqing had heard of it for a long time, but because this book was written by Chen Jun's ancestor, it cost 5,000 yuan to sell it in Daobao Pavilion.
At this price, where is Gu Changqing willing to buy it!
"Fellow Daoists, please look here. β
Shangyu took out a book from his bag, which was "The Story of the Emei Demon Cave".
He turned to one of the pages, pointed to it and said: "Chen Tuan Ancestor said, the Emei Demon Cave is divided into eight formations, from the inside to the outside, in order, the sky, the earth, the wind, the clouds, the dragon, the tiger, the bird, the snake, we have just entered the Demon Cave is still on the periphery, once we go deeper, it will be a snake formation." β
"The outer part of the demon cave is full of nine-rank demons, and the eight-rank demons are in the snake formation, and they can neither come to the periphery nor enter the bird formation. β
"We participate in the Dao Gong Si Martial Arts Examination, and we generally only hunt the Nine Rank Demons on the periphery, and rarely enter the snake formation. β
"In addition to the fact that the body is stronger than that of humans, and the vitality is more tenacious, there is nothing special about the Nine Rank Demons, so those of us who have just received a false urn can use spells to deal with it, but once we encounter the Eight Rank Demons, we will not be able to deal with it, although the Eight Rank Demons do not know how to spell magic, but they all have special abilities, such as the blue-faced demon you just killed, the hair on his body is harder than gold and iron, and the basic spells, even the Nine Rank Spells are difficult to hurt him. β
So that's the case, Gu Changqing suddenly realized.
The Dao Gong Si Martial Arts Examination was not intended to send the candidates to death, but in fact, he came to the Demon Cave Snake Formation by mistake.
But why did you come here at that time?
Gu Changqing subconsciously stretched out his hand and touched his chest, where was the Haotian Mirror.
"At that time, I seemed to be lost in the environment here, and there has always been a subconscious in my body to let me go inside, and now it seems that this Haotian Mirror is guiding me, and the purpose is probably these two copper tripods. β
He guessed in his mind.
After thinking about it, why did Liu Dayong appear in the snake formation?
Thinking of this, Gu Changqing patted his thigh heavily: "Oops, I forgot him!"
Liu Dayong is still in another bronze tripod at this time, and his life and death are unknown!
Zhang Lin said: "It's strange and strange, you haven't said why you came to the snake formation?"
Gu Changqing said: "I don't know the situation in the demon cave, I'm running blind!"
Shangyu and Zhang Lin glanced at each other, a little skeptical.
Gu Changqing didn't care about the questioning eyes of the two, stood up and said, "Take care, you two, I still have important things, so I'll take the first step." β
He looked at the blue-faced demon head on the ground, grabbed his hair, and ran up with his head.
Seeing this, Shang Yu shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this person is not that simple. β
"It's really strange and weird, he can actually kill the blue-faced demon!"
The sight in the demon cave was very poor, and the entire heaven and earth were shrouded in black and red, and it was difficult for Gu Changqing to find the other copper tripod at all.
After a run, he stopped, and he didn't dare to move around again.
At this moment, he is in the snake formation, this is the gathering place of the eight-rank demons, if he encounters the eight-rank demons again, I am afraid that he will inevitably fight.
Although he has Haotian Mirror in his hand, it is nothing more than a consumption of mana.
However, the longer the time wasted, the more dangerous Liu Dayong might be, after all, he was already seriously injured at that time.
The reason why Gu Changqing is obsessed with Liu Dayong is because he is a sensual person.
In that case, Liu Dayong's first thought was to ask Gu Changqing to run quickly, which is enough to show that Liu Dayong is a kind person.
In the face of kind-hearted people, Gu Changqing has no reason to meet death and not save him.
After thinking about it, Gu Changqing decided to give Haotian Mirror a try.
Fortunately, he entered the snake formation, and he came in under the hint of Haotian Mirror.
If the copper tripod is really an item in the Haotian Mirror enchantment, then it can naturally be connected to it.
Instead of blindly looking for it, it's better to try your luck.
He took off the Haotian Mirror pendant, held it in his hand, and poured mana into it.
In order to save mana, at first he only input one mana and two points of mana, but Haotian Mirror did not react at all except for the temperature becoming high.
Gu Changqing had no choice but to increase the mana input, and it was not until he had input five hundred mana that the Haotian Mirror finally emitted a yellow light and floated in the air.
Then he turned around and flew in one direction.
Gu Changqing was overjoyed.
