Chapter 248 5 Yin Demon
Chapter 248 5 Yin Demon
Xing Jue used his sword to slash and pierce, and the Jingluan Sword drew out sharp rays of light, but the human-shaped shadow seemed illusory, and the sword energy and strong wind passed through the shadows without any effect.
Shen Ya wielded the Phantom Dragon Fire Fang Spear, stabbing, slashing and sweeping. Flames emerged from the tip of the spear. Every move was full of power and majesty, but it seemed as if he was challenging a non-existent phantom.
He Lipang's fists and palms were unpredictable, his legs and feet were fierce and powerful, and he swept up the air with a strong gust of wind that could break rocks and penetrate jade, but every move he made was just hitting the vague air.
All attacks seemed to be nothing and could not hurt the human-shaped shadow at all.
Is it really a ghost?
Li Tong said solemnly: "That is not a ghost, but a Yin demon, which is born from the five aggregates of the cultivator. There are masters who have reached the great perfection of the Five Mysterious Realms and killed fifty Yin demons, which will be of great benefit to the future slaying of the three corpses and becoming a saint. These demons of delusion are both good and evil, and all have deep demonic natures. They want to attach themselves to the human body again. Don't let them invade, otherwise it will easily ruin your Tao heart."
Cheng Bai used his spiritual eyes to scan the area and saw that there were exactly fifty human-shaped shadows. He asked hurriedly, "How should we deal with them?"
Li Tong said: "It is difficult to damage objects, and common magic attacks are useless. Only a few secret techniques can purify it, and those with high cultivation and firm Taoism can also erase it. Otherwise, it is best to seal it up. The person who released the Yin Demon gets an easy time himself, while others suffer. It is really unethical."
Suddenly, a shout came from inside the coffin: "Who dares to disturb my meditation? How dare you speak so brazenly!"
The sudden sound scared everyone and made them extremely nervous. Could it be that the evil ghost in the coffin was about to come out?
Cheng Bai was secretly surprised: "Could it be that the master who arrived first and broke the coffin wall is still staying in the coffin?" He pretended to be ignorant and said: "Sorry to disturb your meditation. We accidentally entered this treasure land and saw the magnificent and wonderful scenery everywhere. We couldn't help but linger and didn't want to leave. I didn't mean to bother you for a few words."
The man in the coffin shouted, "What do you mean by mistake? Are you here to look for treasure? The seven-layer spirit coffin does have a lot of treasures, and I have accepted them all. I have practiced here for many years and used up all my treasures, but I have not seen the legendary eternal divine body bloodline that is said to have the talent to catch up with the emperor."
Cheng Bai thought: "This person was busy enjoying the treasures in the coffin and missed the treasures such as the Star Burning Sky Fire in the city. It can be considered a chance for both of them."
The man in the coffin continued, "I am not the first person to come to the Eternal Coffin. The strong man who broke through the outer coffin must have lived tens of thousands of years ago. Most of the treasures have been taken away long ago. I just picked up some leftovers that no one wants."
Cheng Bai was curious and asked, "Senior, do you know who that master is?"
The man in the coffin laughed and said, "Originally, there was no road to becoming an emperor. It was formed after many emperors passed through it. In the last days of the ancient times, there was only one person who swept this road, the Great Emperor Yun Hu of Yunmen."
Hearing the name, Yun Juan frowned and said, "That's not right. The time doesn't match. Emperor Yunmen set foot on the road to becoming an emperor from Qiongqi Continent more than 100,000 years ago, traveled across the sea of stars and became an invincible emperor. How could he be stranded here?"
The person in the coffin sneered and said disdainfully: "Are you stupid, little girl? The First Holy City is a sacred place of immortals and saints. Time passes much more slowly there. How can it be compared to the mortal world?"
"Emperor Road... is this the place?!" Cheng Bai had heard of it several times but didn't know where it was. Unexpectedly, it was right before his eyes.
The person in the coffin sneered and said, "The First Holy City of the Imperial Road - the Eternal Coffin! Don't you know about it? How can a bunch of ignorant people be worthy of coming to the holy land? Damn it."
Cheng Bai heard the bad tone and said goodbye, "Senior, you have obtained the treasure, which is a cause for celebration. We came a step too late and missed the opportunity. We have nothing to gain, so we should leave immediately."
The man in the coffin sneered and said, "Haha... wait a minute. Wherever I, Tang Huang, go, I never leave anyone alive. Moreover, there are people among you whom I must eliminate, so you cannot leave alive."
Ningxiang's face changed slightly, and she sent a voice message to Chengbai: "I feel that the person in the coffin is also one of the emperor's sons, and he is full of hostility. I am afraid that he will take advantage of the fact that his strength is far superior to mine to eliminate future competitors."
"He has already taken action and released the bone-corroding poison mist, which is now spreading all around."
Cheng Bai said calmly. The reason why his face changed drastically just now was not because he was shocked that someone had released the evil spirit, but because he saw with his spiritual eyes that colorless poisonous mist was constantly gushing out from the cracks in the coffin, and the amount was increasing.
The man in the coffin laughed and said, "You have some skills. You can detect the poisonous gas that others cannot detect. But it's too late. The outside of the coffin has become a forbidden place of death. There will be no survivors for a while. I am lucky and have a good fate. I got the treasure and got rid of a prince, paving the way for my ascending to the throne."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "thump" and someone collapsed to the ground. Ruan Taoran was the weakest among the crowd, even weaker than the monster's mount, and was caught in the trap without knowing it.
At this time, the Yin demons were still chasing their target who was dodging left and right. When they realized that someone had fallen to the ground and could not get up, they surrounded him and scrambled to drill into Ruan Taoran's body through his seven orifices, all attaching themselves to him.
"Possessed by a demon and surrounded by poisonous fog, what should I do?" Yun Juan witnessed the sudden change but was powerless to do anything, and was suddenly at a loss.
Ningxiang hurriedly took out five Qinglang Pills and said in a trembling voice, "I don't have enough antidote."
"It's better to have something than nothing." Yun Juan hurriedly picked up one and leaned over to put it into Ruan Taoran's mouth.
Cheng Bai sighed, "The Qinglang Pill cannot cure the bone-corroding poison mist. It can only delay his survival for a short while at most."
The man in the coffin laughed and said, "Despair! Tremble! These few pills will only prolong your suffering for a little longer. I will leave the Eternal Coffin Continent and strive for the throne of the emperor. When the poisonous fog dissipates, I will come back to collect your bodies."
There was no further news from the person in the coffin afterwards.
Cheng Bai used his Phoenix power to sense that the other party had indeed left, and he was secretly happy: "He himself would not want to be easily exposed to the bone-eroding poisonous fog, or to kill the Yin Demon and not recover his power, so he ran away after releasing the poison."
Everyone was in trouble.
Ningxiang asked anxiously, "Are we really going to die here?"
Cheng Bai signaled everyone to be silent, and communicated with his spiritual consciousness: "Don't worry, there is a way to remove the poison."
In order to prevent that person from staying secretly, Ruan Taoran was poisoned and had no solution, so he just released a smoke bomb to confuse the opponent. In fact, he had already used the poison rune to absorb all the bone-corroding poison fog around him, silently resolving the crisis and improving his own cultivation.
Ruan Taoran was harassed by fifty evil spirits, had many delusions, and his mind was confused. He remained unconscious and was temporarily carried on He Lipang's back.
Li Tong took a few glances and said, "This kid has suffered a great loss, but it may not be a bad thing. It is a coincidence that he is actually a small demon, which is very suitable for reconciling the demon of delusion. If he can practice the superior magic of subduing demons and suppressing evil, such as the Buddha Purple Qi taught by the World Honored One, which can break the demon and stand, it is equivalent to getting a part of the other party's power for free, and his cultivation may rise rapidly."
Yun Juan said angrily: "That fellow called himself Tang Heng. What a powerful poison! What a vicious person! He did this to me without any grudge or hatred!"
Ningxiang said indignantly: "The prince who won by poison must be one of the five evil poison bodies. When we meet in the future, I will avenge this poison."
Cheng Bai's divine power was amazing. He exerted all his strength to slowly push the coffin lid, gradually increasing his strength from 50% to 100%, and finally barely pushed it open to reveal a corner. He couldn't help but secretly shocked: "The coffin lid alone weighs more than 200,000 tons. Li Tong said that I am not worthy of stepping into the path of God, and it is true."
Leaning over and looking inside, I saw that the coffin was filled with mountains, rivers, plants, pavilions and corridors, forming a beautiful picture scroll, like a miniature garden world, exquisite like a fairy palace in this world.
What's even more precious is that a rich energy of heaven and earth that seems to be about to condense into a solid entity is blowing in his face, far surpassing what the Eternal City has. No wonder he can hide here to practice, it's like a fish in water.
There is a square in the wide area inside the coffin, with another door of choice standing there. Tang Heng left through this door.
Everyone jumped into the coffin one after another, and when they looked up at the coffin lid, it looked like a starry sky, very interesting. Only the corner where the coffin was opened was abrupt, as if it was a world outside the universe.
When the coffin lid is tightly closed, the inside of the coffin becomes a world of its own. The vegetation everywhere is like crystal jade, the mountains and rivers are vivid, and the buildings are ingeniously crafted. All viewers are amazed and impressed.
Cheng Bai thought of Tang Heng's words, and was full of doubts. He asked Li Tong, "We were able to travel unimpeded all the way because our predecessors eliminated many dangers and cracked the formation. Otherwise, we might not have been able to get here, right?"
Li Tong nodded and said, "Not bad."
Cheng Bai asked curiously, "Where does the next portal lead to?"
Li Tong said frankly: "The gate of choice here leads to the second holy city - Xia Geng's head."
Cheng Bai asked: "What is going on with the Imperial Road? What is the connection between the Holy Cities?"
