Exorcism

A huge invisible arc cuts through the mountains. The outside is filled with gray and unclean air, but the inside is completely clean. If you observe carefully, you can see that the arc is slowly advancing, forcing the unclean air to gradually retreat.

A five-element golden spell shot straight into the sky outside the arc, and disappeared after a long time. A moment later, a dozen five-element spells responded within the arc, and then a voice resounded through the mountains: "Who is coming? A Taoist friend from the Taoist family?”

"Mu Xingqiu."

After hearing this name, the surrounding area became quiet. A quarter of an hour later, a figure appeared in the air. Asan Taoist priest Shen Jiyi stopped at the edge of the slowly moving arc, with an elegant smile on his face, a magic sword under his feet, and his left hand He held it behind his back and made the Dao Fire Jue with his right hand in front of his abdomen, but he did not bow in salute or even nod symbolically, which clearly showed that this gesture was just for caution and not for etiquette.

"Is there any progress in transforming the Taoist monk into a demon?" Shen Jiyi asked with a smile. Except that his title changed from "taoist friend" to "taoist priest", his tone was as gentle as ever, as if he had forgotten all the conflicts between the two parties.

Mu Xingqiu rode a flea up into the air, stopped a dozen steps away from Shen Jiyi, and gave him the Taoist gift. After talking with Yin Buchen, he decided to come to see the Yashan Taoist priest first, and rode in the air for three hours. , without a moment's rest along the way.

"I want to see the Taoist priest from Yashan."

Shen Jiyi did not return the gift, but smiled more, "Sorry, Taoist priests don't see outsiders."

"Okay, I have a few words, can Taoist Shen pass them on for me?"

"Please tell me, whether to pass it on or not depends on whether it is valuable."

Mu Xingqiu looked at the slowly advancing arc behind Shen Jiyi, "Is Yashan going to use the sword-washing pool to attack Yaoshan Pass?"

"It's the hometown of Laozu Peak, not Yaoshan Pass." Shen Jiyi corrected politely, "It seems that the catechumens have begun to get used to the name of Yaoshan."

"Well, seeing more monsters, it will inevitably be a little affected, but we will also get some news. Qi Wushang has set a trap, specifically to deal with the sword-washing pool, the southeast battlefield..."

Shen Jiyi raised his right hand to stop Mu Xingqiu from continuing, "The Taoist monks still have the friendship of Taoism and are willing to convey the news about the demon clan to Yashan. We are very grateful, but let me be clear, Yashan does not need Any information, no matter how many traps Qi Wushang sets, Yashan doesn't care. If the sword-washing pool can't defeat even a few demon weapons, it will be in vain to be called the supreme treasure of Taoism.

"I just want to finish my words. As for whether to take it seriously and how to decide, it is naturally Asan's business. I am not qualified to ask more."

"Then please make a long story short. This is the front line and Asan is very busy."

"Every drop of blood flowing out of the southeast battlefield will be transmitted to the Demon Mountain Pass through the unclean air and the Demon Tower. The amber transformed by Pangshan Taoist Meng Yuanhou is hidden there. After absorbing enough blood, he will have more powerful power. Perhaps It can compete with the Sword Washing Pond, especially since the Sword Washing Pond is incomplete..."

"Haha, this is what you want to say, Mu Xingqiu." Shen Jiyi called him by his first name, and the smile on his face disappeared, "You are here to ask if Yashan has found Mu Songxuan, right? No need to beat around the bush, let me tell you directly. Yashan already knows that Mu Songxuan is hiding in Furong Mountain and has sent people to find him. He will be brought here soon. "

Shen Jiyi's face finally revealed the arrogance he had always hidden, "Even without the few drops of water that Mu Songxuan took away, the sword-washing pool is still the most precious treasure of the Taoism. It is definitely not comparable to the blood and energy formation created by the monster clan on a whim. ”

"I have seen the power of Taoist treasures." Mu Xingqiu once saw the Patriarch Tower and Siming Ding cast spells with his own eyes. Although neither of them used their full strength, they had left enough intuitive impressions on him. "I also understand a little bit. With Qi Wushang's character, he wouldn't do this without some certainty. What I have found out is just the general situation. Maybe he has other traps. In fact, the solution is very simple. He only needs to separate some Taoist priests. Cut off the blood channel between Baizhang City battlefield and Yaoshan Pass..."

A loud voice came from within the arc, "Shen Jiyi, don't waste time. Your duty is to form the outermost line of defense, not to chat with outsiders."

Shen Jiyi smiled slightly, "Yashan has heard what you said. You don't need to say any more, and I don't need to pass it on. Please go aside and watch the battle. Maybe you can also find Qi Wushang and stand on the side of the demon clan to feel the power of Taoism. , maybe it will help you transform into a demon."

Shen Jiyi turned around and flew back within the arc, and disappeared into thin air as soon as he passed by. Mu Xingqiu could not see him even with his third eye.

The Yashan Taoist priests set up a powerful magic circle to protect the sword-washing pool. Even though Mu Xingqiu possessed an inner elixir of the fifth level, he was still weak and pitiful in front of the Taoist magic circle. He patted the flea and signaled it to fly towards the Demon Tower Forest in the southwest.

Yin Buchen was already tired of waiting. As soon as he saw Mu Xingqiu's figure, he jumped out of the tower. His body had been wiped clean and he had changed into a simple leather armor. Only his hair was still messy. "The master is back. Yes." Do you want to eat or wash your face first? Unfortunately, there are not many things in the tower. The flying demon lair on the top of the tower is more comfortable. If the owner doesn't mind, you can use it to rest."

Mu Xingqiu looked at the flattering Yin Buchen, "You are the son of King Jiao. I know this is not your true face, and this trick is of no use to me, so why not be more direct? Even if we are enemies, I I also hope to deal with real warriors.”

"Master is right, but as early as when my father gave me to Laojun, I was nothing. How could I have my true identity? I only know one thing. If I am not strong enough, I have to find someone who is strong enough." backing."

Mu Xingqiu is the opposite example. He voluntarily quit Pangshan and did not join the Demon Slayer Club. "I am neither strong nor your backer."

"Hehe, a person who remembers the entire set of Demon Lord's Zhengfa actually said that he is not strong enough. There are other mysteries hidden in the words of Zhengfa. As long as I can understand it, the master will soon become a strong man who can take life and death..."

"I want to cut off the unclean atmosphere here from Tallinn. You can think of a way for me and I will give you a crystal eye."

"This credit is not big enough. Let's wait until you figure out a way to capture the Supreme Demonic Pill."

"Didn't I already provide a solution?"

"No, it's too simple and rough. Many of the contents are just your imagination. First think of a way to cut off the blood and energy channel."

"This is not easy. One hundred and eighty Taoist priests cast spells together, and it won't take long to carve out a passage... Oh, but the master can't find so many Taoist priests to help, because the master has withdrawn from the Taoist tradition. Haha, why bother, master? What about helping Dao Tong? Qi Wushang is an adventurer, and he may not succeed every time. His efforts may only make Dao Tong's victory more glorious."

Yin Buchen peeked at Mu Xingqiu, and the expression on his face looked more like that little demon named Feiba.

"So you have no choice?"

"Yes, yes, master will really return the crystal eye... no, give it to me?"

"If you think I'm not a man of my word, there's no need to stay with me."

Yin Buchen straightened his expression, "My master is the most trustworthy human being I have ever seen in my life. I can't find anyone like you among the demon clan."

After flattering him, Yin Buchen thought for a while. In order not to affect his thoughts, he flew into the tower again and paced back and forth. After a while, he jumped out of the demon tower and said with a smile: "Yes, I am really stupid. , I didn’t expect it at first. Isn’t the master’s purpose to block the transmission of blood energy from the southeast battlefield to the demon mountain pass? Cutting off the unclean air and the demon tower forest is certainly a way, but it is too difficult for the two of us to do it, and the demon The magician can quickly fill the gap. It is better to quietly open a few holes in the demon tower forest to let the blood leak out, or transfer it to the place designated by the master, in order to prevent it from spreading to the demon mountain pass. "

"What's the solution?"

"It's more than 200 miles from the Demon City Battlefield to the Demon Mountain Pass. There are seven or eight thousand demon towers on the way. Destroying one or even hundreds of them will not affect the transmission ability of the channel. However, there are more than a dozen towers that are special. They They are nodes, and there are powerful demon relics hidden inside. It is with their power that the demon tower forest can form a whole, form a line of defense, transmit blood energy, etc. "

"Destroying these nodes will make the demon tower forest useless?"

"At least the demon tower forest loses most of its functions, but the nodes are different from ordinary demon towers. They are heavily guarded. The master has strong magic power, but after all, he is weak alone. How can I let the master take this risk..."

"Tell me your way."

"I can help the master build another node tower. It will not be controlled by the demon clan and will only obey the master's orders."

"Is this the idea you came up with after spending a long time in the tower?"

"Isn't this a bad idea? It saves time and effort, but it still requires some materials."

"It's a good idea, but it just doesn't look like something you can come up with."

Mu Xingqiu has developed the habit of observing people's hearts since he practiced mental illusion. Although Yin Buchen has many changes, Mu Xingqiu also has a general judgment about him: all the demon slaves who have been around Mr. Lao Yishi have some mental problems. Normally, Yin Buchen is the most sober one, but formulating a simple and feasible strategy so quickly is definitely beyond his usual performance.

What's more, the Demon Tower is Hao Changqing's field of study. If Yin Buchen knew so much inside information, he should have revealed it long ago when he was bragging.

"Who did you contact in the tower?" Mu Xingqiu asked.

"Ah?" Yin Buchen was still pretending to be confused, "Master, you think this idea is not good? Then I will think of another one."

"I know some Taoist priests from the Honglu Branch who can smelt these crystal eyes into weapon-making materials within a few days."

"Don't, don't, don't do this, it's overkill, this... I'll tell you the truth..."

"It was my idea." Another deep voice came from the tower, "I am Yin Shengqian, the King of Iron-Spine Dragons in the South China Sea."

Jiao King Yin Shengqian himself was not in the tower, and what was transmitted was only the sound.

"Is King Jiao going to betray Qi Wushang?" Mu Xingqiu asked.

"Let me ask a question first. You have already withdrawn from Pangshan, and you have also taken the Demon Transformation Pill. One person left and the other returned. Obviously, you were not welcomed by Yashan. Why are you still helping them?"

Mu Xingqiu stared at the demon tower. He had met King Jiao in Qishan and Feiba's memories, but he had never had direct contact with him. Even now, they had not met face to face, so he could not judge what the other person was thinking. After thinking about him for a while Said: "Having an ability and using it are two different things. I never said I must help Yashan."

There was silence in the tower for a moment, and then there was laughter of approval.
