Chapter 39: The Gathering of Demons and Devils (Part 1)
Behind the Tai Xuan Mountain, on the Song Xian Ridge, at this moment, Jian Wu Chen, a disciple of the Tian Jian Institute, and another mysterious disciple were fighting three ghostly fairies to the death. Around them, many disciples of the Tian Jian Institute and important figures from the six institutes were watching from the sidelines.
At this time, Li Changchun was quietly discussing with the five masters how to kill the three ghost immortals. The others were carefully watching the scene in the field, deeply shocked by the powerful strength of the three ghost immortals. Lu Yun's eyes were on the field, but his mind was carefully paying attention to the mysterious spiritual energy hidden on Songxian Ridge.
Suddenly, Lu Yun's eyes changed slightly, and the last two strands of spiritual energy finally returned. In an instant, a scene appeared in Lu Yun's mind, where a black lotus platform reappeared on the banks of the Yellow River, heading towards Mount Xian in a very stealthy manner. Meanwhile, two clusters of black light, carrying a barely perceptible demonic aura, were flying rapidly from the foot of Tai Xuan Mountain towards this direction.
Lu Yun glanced around, everyone was still unaware, and he couldn't help but let out a faint sigh. He looked at Xuan Yu Zhen Ren, who was discussing business with Li Chang Chun and others, Lu Yun didn't dare to interrupt. He looked at Ao Xue and Yun Feng, Lu Yun said: "You two come over for a moment, I have something to ask you."
A hint of a strange expression flashed across Ao Xue's face as she glanced at Yun Feng, then walked quietly to Lu Yun's side. As the two approached, Lu Yun whispered, "Remember to stand by our side later, something is about to happen here, don't ask now, you'll know soon." Just after he finished speaking, a strange scene suddenly appeared in Lu Yun's mind.
Lu Yun's face changed slightly, and in his mind, a very mysterious scene appeared. In a deep cave, there was a strange milky white pool of water. The pool was not large, only about three feet in size, but it occupied half of the entire cave. The water in the pool was a dense milky white color. What's even more strange is that around the pool, the ground was carved with eight mysterious patterns, forming an octagonal shape, surrounding the pool in the middle. Above the pool, at a height of one foot above the water surface, a flower bloomed with five colors shining brightly, and its surroundings were constantly rotating and dancing with colorful lights, very mysterious. The flower had exactly five petals, each petal was a different color, and they shone with dazzling light.
Below, a milky white stem formed a flower stem, connecting with that mysterious flower, making it look even more mysterious and beautiful. Due to the five-colored light flowing above, the entire pool was reflecting the five-colored halo, very beautiful. That mysterious flower was not big, only about one foot, but its dazzling luster seemed to hide some unspeakable mystery, making people guess how many secrets were hidden in it.
Lu Yun's heart skipped a beat as he finally sensed the mysterious object and understood why all these demons and monsters had gathered at Tai Xuan Mountain. He glanced at Li Changchun, and Lu Yun's heart let out a faint cold snort - it seemed that no matter who it was, everyone had their own private motives. Lu Yun was certain that Li Changchun knew about the extraordinary object in the hundred-foot deep cave of Songxian Ridge, but he just hadn't said anything about it.
Just at this time, the six masters had already discussed a way to deal with the ghost fairy, but Lu Yun suddenly looked up at the sky. In the distance, a black lotus platform was slowly descending while rotating, and at the same moment, in another direction, two clusters of black light appeared out of thin air on Songxian Ridge. As soon as the black lotus and the demon fairy appeared, countless high-speed spiritual waves on Songxian Ridge launched a comprehensive attack on everyone.
"Xīn yù wú hén" reappeared, and Jian Wú Chén and that mysterious man were the first to be affected. The two men's bodies suddenly shook, and their faces turned pale in an instant. As the two men's movements slowed down, three ghostly figures took advantage of the opportunity to appear out of thin air, dodging the attacks of the two men. Meanwhile, a scream was heard from among the Tianjian Institute disciples, and the important figures from the other six institutes also felt a shock to their bodies, suffering from varying degrees of spiritual force attacks.
Li Changchun's body shone with a brilliant purple light, and he shouted loudly: "Everyone, start using your internal energy to resist this! This is the Demon Sect's 'Heart Desire Without Trace', extremely overbearing. When it attacks, there is no shadow or shape, making it very difficult to defend against." As soon as he finished speaking, his body flashed and he instantly appeared in front of that demon immortal. The purple light was like a purple sun, bursting out with dazzling radiance, suddenly attacking the demon immortal. Li Changchun made one move, and the other five headmasters also moved, suddenly pouncing on the remaining demons and monsters.
Lü Yun had already set up nine layers of mental waves outside his body during the demon fairy's spiritual wave attack, each one blocking the demon fairy's spiritual force attacks and sending them back. Therefore, neither áo Xuě nor Yún Fēng beside him were affected by the spiritual force attacks. Watching the battle in the sky, Lü Yun said: "Yún Fēng, you've always wanted to take action, right? Now go help them deal with that demon together. Remember one thing, it's best not to provoke that black lotus platform, that thing is indestructible and will only waste your energy."
Yun Feng smiled and said, "Alright, I know. I'll go capture that ghost fairy again. Heh heh, once you're familiar with it, the second time will be easier." As soon as he finished speaking, his entire person disappeared in an instant. When he reappeared, he was already beside a ghost fairy. The Wind Slashing Sword shone with silver light, attacking the opponent with full force.
The ground, Benyi, Wuwang, Cangyue, Jianwucheng, and Bitian all showed off their exceptional skills, flying up to help the six head teachers deal with the three ghost immortals, two demon immortals, and the mysterious black lotus. Aoxue and Luyun exchanged a glance, also preparing to take action. Suddenly, Luyun said: "Aoxue, you go help Master's sister deal with that ghost immortal, I'll go take a look at that black lotus." After finishing speaking, Luyun calmly gazed at the mysterious man from the Heavenly Sword Institute.
In mid-air, the sword of Swordless Dust was shining brightly as he joined forces with Li Changchun to take down a demon fairy; while the Seven Mysteries True Person and Wuwang from the Dao Garden were going all out against another demon fairy. Yu Wushuang from the Phoenix Academy, Fa Guo Dashi from the Bodhi Academy, and Ben Yisan were joining hands to take down the Black Lotus, Xuan Yu Zhenren, Ao Xue, and Yun Feng were taking on a ghost fairy, while the Confucian scholar Hao Yun Ju Shi and Bi Tian were dealing with another ghost fairy. The last remaining ghost fairy was being taken care of by Cang Yue and Xu Jie together. The only ones who hadn't made a move were Lu Yun, the mysterious man, and Liu Xing Hun - the three of them simply stood there, quietly watching the battle unfold without any intention of intervening.
In mid-air, a kaleidoscope of colors flashed and shone, extremely dazzling. Xuan Yu Zhen Ren, Ao Xue, and Yun Feng, the three of them, were more than enough to deal with a single ghost fairy. They fought, causing the ghost fairy to dodge left and right, slowly falling into a desperate situation. Ao Xue's divine sword emitted a brilliant purple light, while Xuan Yu Zhen Ren's "Yi Tian Chi" was unmatched in power. Adding Yun Feng's yin-yang magic, all of them were the best divine instruments and techniques for restraining ghostly creatures. No matter how strong that ghost creature was, it would be hard to escape.
The Confucian Academy was dealing with another ghost fairy, just like the ones with Cang Yue, and they were not a big problem. The most difficult to deal with were actually those two demon fairies and Hei Lian. Hei Lian had an indestructible body and couldn't be eliminated, while the demon fairies' spiritual attacks were mysterious and unpredictable, requiring constant vigilance. Therefore, the Tianjian Institute, the Bodhi Academy, and the Dao Garden all encountered powerful enemies and fought extremely hard.
At this time, the black lotus was in full bloom, and with one move, it broke through the attacks of Fa Guo Dashi, Yu Wu Shuang, Ben Yisan, and instantly shot westward. As soon as it moved, Fa Guo Dashi, Yu Wu Shuang, and Ben Yi all rushed to pursue it. Meanwhile, on the ground, Liu Xing Hun looked at the direction where the black lotus had gone, his face changed, glanced at the mysterious man, and suddenly shot out quickly, seemingly wanting to stop something from happening.
Hei Lian left, and the two demon fairies also vaguely sensed something. They let out a few fierce roars, and suddenly their light burst forth as they broke through the encirclement with all their might, shooting northwest and disappearing from sight in an instant. Meanwhile, Li Changchun of the Tianjian Institute looked at the mysterious man, then followed the demon fairies with Jian Wucheng. As he chased after them, the two powerful experts from the Dao Garden also gave chase. This left only Yi Garden, Ru Garden, and Cangyue's three factions attacking the three ghostly fairies on Songxian Ridge.
In mid-air, the three ghostly immortals seemed to have sensed something and began to counterattack fiercely. Amidst the loud roar, three black shadows transformed into countless ghostly apparitions, enveloping the entire Shengxian Ridge in an eerie, dark aura. Under the cover of these ghostly apparitions, the three ghostly immortals fled separately in three different directions. However, the powerful experts from Liu Yuan were not to be underestimated; how could they let them escape so easily?
Only the proud snow god sword light burst, layer upon layer of purple light enveloped the surroundings, not giving the ghost fairy a chance to escape. Yun Feng once again displayed the yin-yang eye technique, coordinating with the yin-yang incantation, completely blocking the ghost fairy's path. Hao Yun and Bi Tian also simultaneously displayed the Confucian school's majestic righteous energy, forming a heaven-shielding barrier of extremely yang and strong fire energy, completely isolating the surroundings, not giving the ghost fairy any chance to escape.
The Cangyue's Moon God Sword emitted a sharp, silvery-yellow light, just like the moonlight. A yellow phoenix spread its wings and flew behind her, carrying an overwhelmingly powerful force to attack the ghost fairy. Xu Jie's treasured sword shone with a yellow glow, as she transformed into a fiery phoenix, darting and dancing in mid-air, wildly sweeping everything away.
In the midst of a kaleidoscope of colors, a loud roar echoed through the air. Suddenly, Xu Jie's body trembled slightly, and a black light shot out from her, like a fleeting shadow, straight towards the ground. The moment it landed, it darted towards the thousand-foot cliff on the side of Songxian Ridge. Cang Yue shouted, "Sister, take a rest, I'll go kill it!" Her body transformed into a silver light, and with the swift and fierce pursuit of the Xiao Yue divine sword, she chased after it in a flash.
On the ground, Lu Yun found that the mysterious man's eyes changed, his body suddenly faded away, and in an instant, he disappeared. Lu Yun's face changed greatly, this mysterious man was so mysterious, with such a high level of cultivation, yet not even under the six elders. Who was he? Why did he have such powerful cultivation? It was truly mysterious. Why had Li Changchun never mentioned this person's name before? What was hidden behind this?
Lu Yun didn't have time to think much, and after glancing at the people in mid-air, his body flashed with a burst of light and disappeared. Under a cliff shrouded in mist and fog, Cang Yue's body hovered in mid-air, carefully searching for the ghostly figure's trail. Looking around at the dark cliff, the silver-yellow glow of the Xiao Yue divine sword on top of Cang Yue's head flickered and spun continuously. Suddenly, a burst of light flashed, and a figure appeared out of thin air three zhang to Cang Yue's left - it was that mysterious man. He coldly glanced at Cang Yue, and his body suddenly spun, transforming into a dark purple glow that vanished in an instant.
Cang Yue's eyes showed a hint of puzzlement, and the divine sword on her head slowly searched around the cliff, soon finding a clue. But at this moment, Lu Yun's body also appeared out of thin air beside Cang Yue. After glancing at Cang Yue, Lu Yun asked in a low voice, "Cang Yue Shijie, do you see a mysterious man? Is he the one who fought with Guixian earlier?"
Cang Yue looked at him with a hint of curiosity in her eyes, nodded slightly and said: "He just arrived, but suddenly turned into a dark purple light and disappeared from sight. I don't know where he went. This person's cultivation is strong, probably not even a few people in the entire Six Institutes can match."
Lu Yun looked at the absolutely beautiful face, his heart slightly touched, and said in a low voice: "That person is very mysterious, his cultivation is stronger than Jian Wucheng. You chased that ghost fairy, but lost track of her here?" After finishing speaking, he saw her nodding slightly, Lu Yun couldn't help but start sizing up the surroundings.
