Exorcism

Many years ago, Mu Xingqiu visited Zhaoshan once, and was transported directly to the island from the Hongshan Instant Platform. He was deeply impressed by the picturesque scenery there. This revisit, starting from Talang City, lasted more than half a month. Yuecai saw the shadow of Zhaoshan Mountain just as the sun was setting in the west. The afterglow of the setting sun enveloped Zhaoshan Mountain, but what Mu Xingqiu saw was just an extremely ordinary island.

The area of ​​the island is not small, it is larger than the nine small islands in Qishan put together. The mountains are gentle and the trees are prosperous. Other than that, there is nothing unusual about it. The houses on the island are scattered everywhere, and most of them are dilapidated. The whole island looked somewhat dilapidated.

There are many hermits in Zhaoshan. The last time Mu Xingqiu came here, he didn't see a few Zhaoshan Taoist priests. This time, there were no Taoist priests, but there were many monsters.

The outside of Zhaoshan Island has never been more lively. The two islands closest to it have been occupied. The smoke is curling up. The monsters above are setting fires to cook. There are dozens of large ships surrounding Zhaoshan. A rough calculation indicates that there are tens of thousands of monsters. clan.

"Dao Zun, you may have miscalculated. The Wangshan demon army has already arrived, and King Ling and others are afraid that they are in danger." Yin Buchen looked in high spirits, and his eyes seemed not as moist as before.

"These monsters are probably not Wangshan's army, they are not even in the same group."

Yin Buchen blinked and looked for a while, "Really? I can't tell."

Mu Xingqiu didn't see it, but felt it. He was still dozens of miles away from Zhaoshan when he noticed a large number of witchcraft. They were set up in advance as a warning, but they did not cooperate with each other. Instead, they were wary of each other and even conflicted. This proves that The demon clan around Zhaoshan is not monolithic, but is divided into multiple factions.

"Ah..." Yin Buchen suddenly called out, staring blankly at a group of monsters in the distance.

There are dozens of demon ships of different styles, most of which are tall and majestic. However, this group of demons is riding on a huge raft with hundreds of small houses densely built on it, like a floating island.

Mu Xingqiu soon understood why Yin Buchen was panicking. Several flags were set up on the raft. The largest flag had an iron-spine dragon painted on it. "Is that your old clan?"

"Hey, they are at best vassals of the Iron Dragon Clan, but they actually have the nerve to raise the Dragon King's flag. Yin Buchen's expression changed continuously, and he seemed at a loss.

"Just in time, let's go meet them." Mu Xingqiu took the lead and flew towards the raft, bypassing the sorcery restrictions that were particularly vigilant.

"What does 'huihui' mean? Are we about to start a fight now? I haven't fully mastered the new magic yet..." Yin Buchen was even more flustered. In the past few days, he had indeed practiced very hard, but after ten attempts Only five or six times can the aura of heaven and earth be transformed into a spell, and the distance cannot be too far.

While practicing, Yin Buchen felt that he had done well enough, and if he really wanted to test it in battle, he immediately lost confidence.

"They have found a ten-foot-long monster as their leader, which is difficult to deal with. If Taoist Master is willing to take action..." Yin Buchen still hopes to have a backer.

Mu Xingqiu said without looking back: "Don't expect me to help you. If you don't dare to fight or fail in the battle, then I have misjudged you. I will have to find another demon clan to teach the way of nature."

"Don't." Yin Buchen believed that Mu Xingqiu would really do such a thing. He could leave Talang City and his good friends in the city, and it would be normal for him to abandon the half-demon. "Then I'll try... What if Black Phoenix comes out to cause trouble? She has practiced hard over the years and seems to be a little better than me. "

"You can't ask 'what if' in battle. You don't dare to face the Black Phoenix today, but what if the Black Phoenix comes to you one day? Can you keep avoiding and choosing your opponent?"

Yin Buchen was speechless, and after a while he said, "Master Dao is really more cruel and cruel than before."

Mu Xingqiu laughed twice and did not argue. He did not become cruel, but entered a fighting state in advance.

Yin Buchen looked at Zhao Shan and made a final attempt, "We should go to the island to find the Spirit King first."

"Now that we're here, there's no need to worry. Let's figure out the situation first." Mu Xingqiu's plan was to secretly protect Yang Qingyin and others and try not to expose their true identities.

The arrival of the two new monsters had already attracted the attention of the monsters around Zhaoshan. Until they saw them flying towards the raft of the Iron Dragon clan, the other monsters lost interest.

The iron dragons are a large clan of sea monsters. There are not many real iron-spine dragons, but there are a lot of sea monsters attached to them. Although the dragon king Yin Shengqian led the entire clan to death in Pang Mountain, their flag has not disappeared and is still flying in the South China Sea. It's just that the number of dependents has dropped sharply from tens of thousands in the heyday to three to four thousand today.

Yin Buchen left Demon Suppression Island three years ago and returned to his hometown in the South China Sea. He thought that with his iron dragon shape, he could naturally succeed him as the king of dragons. However, a small dragon that was several feet long only attracted ridicule, not even from the demon clan. Acknowledging that he was the son of King Jiao, even the sea monsters who had watched him grow up asked: "You are the son of King Jiao, why didn't you die in the battle with King Jiao in Pang Mountain? The iron-spine dragon bathed in blood on the battlefield. What were you doing while you were fighting to atone for your betrayal?"

Yin Buchen couldn't answer. He couldn't say that he was helping the enemies of the demon tribe to destroy the demon tower.

But Black Phoenix also came to the South China Sea. She was once the giant demon king's confidant, and her words were quite weighty. It was she who claimed that Qi Wushang did not trust the iron-spine dragon and deliberately sent them to the battlefield to die. These words were not wrong, but they were not accurate. Restore the situation at that time, the reputation of Jiao King Yin Shengqian was greatly damaged.

Qi Wushang is dead, his cruelty and ruthlessness are gradually forgotten, but his achievements in conquering Pangshan's Ancestor Peak have become more and more impressive, and he has become a hero in the eyes of the monsters.

Yuan Qi Jing is a rare ten-foot-long monster in the South China Sea. It is said that he is the queen of the giant shark, but there is no monster of the same clan to prove it. He has been practicing alone on an isolated island. He once declined Qi Wushang's wooing, until more than two years ago. Feeling that those who have achieved success in cultivation leave the island and become king, their attitude has changed drastically. He claims to be a loyal warrior of the Giant Demon King, and uses this banner to attract many followers, including Black Phoenix.

Most of the Nanhai Monster Clan do not like to wear silk and linen clothing. Regardless of gender, they are proud of nudity and only wrap fish skins and animal skins on important parts of their bodies. Even among the Monster Clan, they are considered to be relatively barbaric.

Yuan Qijing is seven or eight feet tall. His long hair is combed into more than a hundred thin braids and draped casually behind his back. He holds a fish bone shield in his left hand, with two rows of long spikes flashing with cold light. He holds a silver-white spear in his right hand. The spear was probably made from the bones of some giant fish.

He had seen Yin Buchen a long time ago, so he stood at the head of the raft waiting. Behind him stood a large group of male and female monsters. They all recognized the incompetent son of King Jiao, but at this time they were holding weapons and their eyes were filled with hostility.

Mu Xingqiu saw no trace of Black Phoenix, so he slowed down and let Yin Buchen fly ahead.

More than three miles apart, Yin Buchen stopped in the air. The sun just completely sank into the West Sea. Night fell, and his eyes were hazy, making the distance seem farther.

"Yuan Qijing, I unexpectedly met you here. Is the position of King Jiao still safe?" No matter how uneasy he felt, Yin Buchen was not convinced. He had prepared to cast the spell early and found that Zhaoshan was indeed the hometown of Taoism. , the surrounding world's spiritual energy is extremely abundant, and I feel more confident in my heart.

Yuan Qijing hummed indifferently, saying it was a challenge, which was not direct enough, and saying it was a greeting, which seemed too perfunctory. Then he spoke directly to the half-demon next to Yin Buchen, "Your surname? It doesn't seem to be a siren. "

"My name is Tuo Yong, from the country of Saishen." Mu Xingqiu borrowed the name of the original owner of the body.

The King of Sheshen’s family is leafy and leafy, Tuo Yong is not the best among them, and his reputation is not well-known among the demon clan. Yuan Qijing has obviously never heard of it, and he does not show much respect for the surname Tuo, “Isn’t King Sheshen still not giving up? ? The Tiejiao clan will not surrender to the demon clan, so it’s useless for you to find Yin Buchen.”

"I'm not sent by King Sheshen, nor am I Yin Buchen's helper. Just think that I just happened to come over to watch the fun." Mu Xingqiu flew some distance away.

Yuan Qijing didn't say anything, but Yin Buchen felt lonely and helpless. When he spoke again, his voice was trembling, "Yuan Qijing, you took away the position of Jiao King by virtue of your being a ten-foot-long demon. Today... ...Today, I want to take it back with justice.”

"Okay, I said, I'll give you a chance to fight with me. The winner is the king. I've been waiting for you for nearly a year, right?"

Yin Buchen blushed. It was true that he didn't dare to accept the challenge and fled. "Stop talking nonsense. Well...if I win, you all have to admit that I am the Jiao King."

The last sentence was said to the monsters behind Yuan Qiji. Thousands of male and female sea monsters looked at the son of the Dragon King indifferently, and only a few monsters made a "hmm" sound in agreement.

Mu Xingqiu thought to himself that Yin Buchen was really unpopular among his own clan. He must have concealed some of the bad deeds he had done. Mu Xingqiu didn't want to abuse the illusion of mind, so he just glanced at Yin Buchen's memory without looking at it in detail.

Yuan Qijiu gently stroked the water with his right spear, and a wave of waves surged towards Yin Buchen, several miles away. It was extremely fast and long in the wind. The height quickly changed from several feet to more than ten feet, but the width remained the same. It is more than a foot long and does not change, like a tall horse rushing towards the target.

Yin Buchen was shocked. The natural magic that he had prepared did not work. The abundant spiritual energy around him did not change. He was even more frightened. He involuntarily transformed into a small dragon, trying to use his demon body to fight against this. one move.

One side is a ten-foot-long demon, and the other is barely a middle demon, but can only exert the strength of a small demon. The outcome of this battle is obvious.

Mu Xingqiu still had no intention of interfering.

Yin Buchen was about to be completely defeated, but the waves disappeared on their own, leaving the lonely little dragon floating on the sea, showing more and more weakness.

Yuan Qijing didn't mean to be merciful, but he heard the suggestion.

A large group of black shadows flew over the raft, and then the voice of the banshee Black Phoenix sounded: "The Spirit King said that there is no point in fighting in private. It is better to have a big competition. Whoever wins will get the treasure of Zhaoshan."

Yuan Qijing was moved, "Did the Spirit King really say that?"

"Look, all the demon clans are ready to land." Black Phoenix's figure flew away to send a message to other groups of demon clans. He deliberately made a detour and passed over Yin Buchen's head, "I can't believe that you actually came here on your own initiative. Death, haha.”

Yin Buchen returned to his human form, his face pale, and he looked at Mu Xingqiu for help.

Mu Xingqiu was wondering, besides the Great Light Mirror, what else in Zhaoshan could be called a "treasure"?
