Chapter 117: The Break (I).
The secret method practiced by Zhang Hualing was passed down by Zhang Xusheng, but it was later transformed by Li Xuhan, which can be described as a blend of good and evil. It doesn't have to be too far worse than Zhang Xusheng's real secret method.
For two whole days, Zhang Hualing has been wandering around the "Ronghua Mountain", using evil methods to absorb the souls and essence blood of the monks who stayed in the "Ronghua Mountain", on the one hand, to replenish his soul, and on the other hand, to enhance his strength. Because he knew that the moment when he was completely evil, it also meant that the battle between him and Xu Qingfan was about to begin.
The evil law is strange and unpredictable, and there is no master in the entire "Ronghua Mountain" who can be expected, in two whole days, Zhang Hualing absorbed at least the essence and blood souls of nearly a thousand righteous monks, and even took the time to go down the mountain to absorb the essence and blood souls of mortals who were several times the same as the monks, but none of the monks in the entire "Ronghua Mountain" realized the truth of the matter.
Of course, there are also people who have shown that something is wrong.
For example, someone's friends go out on patrol or do something else, but they leave and never come back, and someone else goes out to look for them and disappears.
This situation lasted for two days, more and more monks felt that something was wrong, but after seeing each monk leave, they would disappear, even if more than ten people walked together, out of the messenger to contact others, but now the messenger has not yet flown to the destination and suddenly lost contact with them, the panic in the heart is even worse, I feel that although the "Ronghua Mountain" is big, it seems that there are only myself and a few people around me, and there are evil wolves lurking in the dark.
In fact, basically the earlier the monk who is not in order, the sooner he is killed by Zhang Hualing.
That's it. The entire "Ronghua Mountain" suddenly fell into an inexplicable and quiet panic. Tens of thousands of monks in the mountain, facing a Zhang Hualing, were so helpless. Many people are even afraid to take a step out of the house, let alone gather to protect themselves.
The area where mortals live outside the "Ronghua Mountain" is even more uproar these days, and the area closest to the "Ronghua Mountain", a whole tens of thousands of people suddenly disappeared. Anyone will feel panicked, and they will continue to speculate for a while, and they have the heart to contact the "immortals" on the "Ronghua Mountain", but none of the "immortals" who have been used to seeing in the past two days have gone down the mountain. And a few brave mortals went up the mountain in person, but they never came back.
And in the entire "Ronghua Mountain", the one who is the most sluggish to such an abnormal situation is undoubtedly the old beggar.
This guy has been counting the materials they have collected over the past few days with a few of his colleagues since the departure of the large army of the Righteous Path Alliance, after the Righteous Path Alliance defeated the Southern Desolation Demon Beast. These stupid but not stupid refining masters went up and down, and cut off a large part of the materials that the monks of the Righteous Path Alliance gave them for refining weapons, even Xu Qingfan's was no exception.
There's nothing bad about it, they just want to have more material for them to do more in the future.
Now, the old beggar is discussing with his corrupt accomplices what magic tools these materials should be refined, and what to do with these magic weapons, everyone has their own ideas, and after calculation, the materials they embezzled are not enough.
"Naturally, we have to refine the Five Elements Holy Weapon. You must know that the Five Elements Sacred Weapon is the pinnacle of our refining weapons. It doesn't matter how many ideas you have, let's just incorporate all the new ideas. ”
The old beggar was expressing his opinion. Over the years, a large number of refining tools have been used with countless treasures. The flow of magic weapons is no longer in the eyes of the old beggar.
"No, let's refine the Black Dragon Evil Nail to ward off evil spirits. The Five Elements Sacred Weapon is a magic weapon, and who of us can refine the magic weapon?"
Another refiner, who looked even scruffier than the old beggar, disagreed.
Hearing this man's words, the old beggar said hatefully: "Then isn't the black dragon evil nail you said a magic weapon? It's also hateful to say, the method of refining the magic weapon is only those grandmasters, and their refining methods are ordinary, but for the method of refining the magic weapon, they are hiding and refusing to tell us, which is a waste." ”
"Yes, our methods are much more clever than theirs, but unfortunately, we are only limited to refining magic weapons, alas
Another man sighed.
The old beggar lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said: "Just refining the Five Elements Sacred Weapon, although it is impossible to refine it as powerful as the real thing, can I wait for it to be simplified for a while? Of course, we don't know how to refine the magic weapon, but which method was not created by the predecessors, they can create it, then we can also create it by following some ideas, and the Five Elements Holy Weapon just allows us to explore the method of refining the magic weapon. ”
The tone is categorical and extremely confident.
"But ......" another person hesitated, "If I want to refine the magic weapon, then it is good to refine some relatively low-level magic weapons, and why do you want to refine the Five Elements Holy Weapon?
The old beggar waved his hand and said: "Although there are a lot of materials, but refining magic weapons is not very sufficient. ”
The old beggar has the highest refining technique among the people, so he is also one of the people, and when he heard the old beggar say this, no one objected, not to mention, these refining maniacs are all obsessed with refining, and deep down they all want to challenge the pinnacle of refining - "Five Elements Holy Weapon".
Now that the decision has been made, everyone feels itchy and unbearable, and they can't wait to start refining it immediately.
"Why hasn't that guy come yet, the place where the materials are hidden is not far from us, so he won't be caught by the disciples patrolling the mountains, right?"
After a moment, one couldn't help but ask.
It turned out that so many precious materials had been embezzled before and after, even they were uneasy, so they hid these materials elsewhere, and the provincial ones were stolen by the family, and the old grandson was also one of the refiners, and he secretly went to take out those materials before. But more than an hour has passed in the discussion of everyone, but there is still no sign of returning.
Hearing the possibility that the old grandson was stolen and captured, the old beggar's face changed greatly. It doesn't matter if you're considered a thief in the future, but the material must not be confiscated.
"No, I'm going to check it out. ”
So saying, the old beggar walked briskly towards the outside of the courtyard.
"I'll go too. ”
"I'll go too. ”
Those materials were heavier than life for them, for a while. Seventeen or eighteen refiners in the middle of the courtyard followed behind the old beggar.
However, when they left their compound and walked towards the material cache, they didn't even care about anything outside of their bodies. These people also appeared abnormally, although all the masters of the Righteous Path Alliance left collectively, but there were still a large number of ordinary monks on the "Ronghua Mountain", and people came and went on weekdays, or exchanged immortal cultivation techniques, or learned Taoism. It's not lively, but at this moment, there is no figure in the entire "Ronghua Mountain", and there is no sound in the empty mountain, as if it is a dead mountain.
"Old beggar, something is wrong, where are all those guys who are messing around on weekdays?"
The old beggar was also stunned and looked at the "Ronghua Mountain" that seemed to have become extremely unfamiliar, and shook his head blankly.
"Could it be that there is some big move in the Righteous Path Alliance, and all the monks are dispatched, and we have forgotten?"
Another refining master frowned and pondered, generally. These people are obsessed with refining weapons. All kinds of notices from the Righteous Path Alliance, unless they are about refining. Otherwise, it is simply a direct choice to ignore it.
Just when everyone thought about it, the more they thought it was possible, a change abruptly appeared. In the alchemy area not far from the refining area, there was a sudden scream of horror, but it was fleeting, and he turned his head to look in the direction where the scream came from, but saw that a blood mist was slowly dissipating.
Then, as if attracted by this miserable cry, the few monks' residences that were close to the alchemy area flashed dozens of figures and rushed towards the alchemy area to find out, but there was no sound after a burst of aura fluctuations.
The old beggar and the others looked at each other in horror, inexplicably, a sense of panic spread in their hearts, and vaguely, it seemed that something bad was growing in the "Ronghua Mountain".
Nodding slightly to each other, all the refining masters took out various magic weapons that concealed their aura or protection outside their bodies, and slowly walked towards the alchemy area.
The alchemy area is much neater than their refining area, but under the cleanliness and tidiness, the meaning of tranquility is even more compelling, and the panic in the bottom of my heart is also more and more real.
When he came to the courtyard where the screams came before, the old beggar jumped towards the courtyard first, and at the same time, a strange-looking ring on the ground on his hand flashed a faint light, and in the next moment, the old beggar's body had disappeared between heaven and earth, but he was invisible with a magic weapon.
And the other refining masters also followed suit, using magic weapons to hide their body shapes and breaths, and followed the old beggar into the courtyard secretly.
As soon as they entered the courtyard, what they saw was shocking to their hearts, only to see a monk they had never seen before was standing in a corner of the courtyard with a smile and groaning, in the courtyard, a cloud of blood mist was constantly fluctuating and spreading, within the blood mist, there were dozens of figures motionless, as if they were imprisoned, but soon, these figures gradually became smaller and smaller, and it seemed that only dry bones remained.
After a while, I saw that the strange monk opened his mouth and inhaled, and the red mist in the courtyard entered the person's mouth one after another, and after the blood mist was like a body, a red tide appeared on the person's face, and the gray head on his head seemed to have a little more dark luster, but the evil aura on his body was even stronger.
The original figures in the red mist were finally revealed in front of the old beggar and others, but the original figures had all turned into white bones at this moment, and with a wave of the strange monk's hand, these white bones shattered one after another and fell to the ground, and at the same time, the ground in the courtyard rolled silently, burying all those dry bones under the courtyard, and the previous scene never left a trace.
After doing this, the strange monk smiled slightly, but as soon as he turned around, his evil eyes looked straight at the place where the old beggar and the others had landed.
"Why hide when you're here?"
The man smiled and whispered, as if entertaining the original guest.
The old beggar and the others did not move, they were masters of refining. He has great confidence in the magic weapons on his body, although the magic weapons used by the cultivation restrictions are only earth-level magic weapons, but their effects are not below the heavenly level at all.
The monk sighed slightly. But he waved his hand slightly at the old beggar and the others, and suddenly, the old beggar and the others only felt that the heaven and earth aura around them vibrate, and then, a series of subtle cracking sounds sounded in their ears. When he looked down, he saw that their respective invisibility magic weapons had been shattered, and their figures were revealed in front of the man's eyes.
The old beggar and the others were horrified. It's even more unbelievable, it's that they have refined the earth magic weapon with their own hands, can't they hide the eyes of the people? I only feel that my faith is a little traumatized.
The person who came looked at the fragments of magic weapons at the feet of the old beggar and the others, and said with a smile: "These magic weapons are very good, if it is a monk who cultivates above the Jindan stage and uses these magic weapons, it is really not easy for me to appear." It's a pity that your land strength is too weak, and magic weapons are just a means of supplementing between monks who are not much different in cultivation. ”
As he spoke, the man's eyes turned to the old beggar and the others, nodded slightly, and said, "It's okay, I was about to go to you, but you came here automatically to save me some time." ”
"Who are you? What are you doing? Did you kill the old grandson?"
The old beggar was one of the many people, although his heart was full of panic at the moment. But still bite the bullet. Holding back the panic in his heart, he asked one after another.
The old beggar could hear it, too. His voice is a little entangled, and he is obsessed with refining weapons. Although he is an immortal cultivator, he has hardly participated in the battle between immortal cultivators, not to mention that the person who came is so unfathomable.
"It doesn't matter who I am, I just want to ask, are you willing to work for me? You are different from others, but you have special talents at the bottom of your cultivation, and it doesn't work much to absorb you, but you just got some good materials, which can help me refine a few good things. How? Will you serve me? I can spare your life. ”
Just got some nice material......
Hearing this, the old beggar and the others were shocked, pointed at the man and said, "You killed the old grandson?"
The man ignored the questions of the old beggar and others, and said lightly: "My time is limited, you only need to answer whether you are willing or not, those who are willing to become my subordinates, and those who are unwilling will be turned into dry bones like everyone else, why bother so much?"
The old beggar and the others gathered closer and closer, and each took out the most proud magic weapon in his hand, and looked at the man vigilantly, but answered the man's question with actions.
It's not that he's not afraid of death, it's just that people like the old beggar are the most admitted, this person killed the old grandson, and the old grandson is their best friend for many years, so they can't serve this person, it's as simple as that.
"It's a pity. ”
The man sighed and said that he was going to kill the old beggar and the others.
"Wait!!"
At this moment, the old beggar suddenly opened
"Why, have you changed your mind?" the man asked with a smile.
"Although my cultivation is low, I can also see a little bit that your strength is probably much stronger than those Jindan stage masters we have seen, I am afraid that it is already the cultivation of the grandmaster, and your grandmaster, aren't they all magic weapons?
is worthy of being an old beggar who has become obsessed with refining, and he is dying, and what he thinks about is also the problem of refining.
The man was not familiar with the old beggar's character, and thought that the old beggar planned to work for him, so he couldn't help but be happy, and the movements of his hands were also slightly slowed, and he explained with a smile: "The so-called magic weapon is the evolution of the magic weapon, the difference is that the magic weapon adds the grandmaster's understanding of the way of heaven, gives birth to the instrument spirit, and adds some very mysterious things. In short, magic weapons are the foundation of magic weapons, and I just want to refine some magic weapons, so I can use you, do you have any other questions?"
"Yes, who are you?" asked the old beggar again.
"I don't answer this question. ”
"Then I don't. ”
As he spoke, the old beggar suddenly shouted, "Shoot." ”
As the old beggar's voice sounded, all of a sudden, more than a dozen refining masters controlled their magic weapons to attack the person, or a steel dragon appeared out of thin air, or a few beads fell to the ground, quickly absorbing the earth aura for a moment and then turned into several rock giants, or a colorful light curtain circulated to protect the old beggar and others, and those refining masters who were good at refining "thunderbolts" threw the powerful explosive magic weapons towards the person one after another.
With such an attack, with the number and the subtlety of the magic weapon, even if it is a great master in the Jindan period, he will have to be in a hurry for a while.
It's just that, in the face of the complicated attacks in front of him, the person who came only sighed slightly and said, "It's a pity to find death." Just pointed at the old beggar and the others, and suddenly, the old beggar and the others were frightened, and the space they were in instantly froze, the steel dragon and the rock giant were infinitely powerful, but they couldn't move, and the "thunderbolt" thrown at the person was so stagnant in mid-air, and they couldn't move at all, and they couldn't even make a sound.
"It's a shame. ”
While speaking, the person waved his hand again, and suddenly the endless blood mist appeared out of thin air, and rolled towards the old beggar and others, seeing that the old beggar and others were about to turn into dry bones in a moment like those people before, but suddenly, there was an inexplicable fluctuation between heaven and earth, and the old beggar and others were shocked, and they suddenly regained their freedom, and the endless blood mist in front of them was stagnant in front of the old beggar and others less than a foot away and could no longer move.
"Who the hell are you?"
After regaining his freedom, the old beggar asked again the question that had been held back for a long time.
The man didn't answer, just looked up at the sky somewhere in surprise.
"He is Zhang Hualing, the head of Jiuhua. ”
A sigh rang out, and answered the questions of the old beggar and others.
At the same time, where the man was staring, the space fluctuated, and a person surrounded by black qi appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
