Global Adventure: The Strongest Anchor In History

Ivory Mountain.

The deep and thick milky white mist was like flowing slurry, constantly rolling upwards, while the underlying mist became thinner and thinner.

The range visible to the naked eye has been greatly expanded.

"This white mist should be some kind of formation made using the power of nature."

"The green mist is poisonous gas, and the purple and black mist is miasma."

"In a short period of time, it won't have any effect on me, and it won't hurt the beauty that has its own purifying energy."

"But if you stay in there for too long, something might happen."

Ye Xing was worried about disturbing the things inside, so he lowered his voice.

Uh~~~

Woo~~~

Phew~~~

Hee~~~

The flames that flickered on and off floated around in the mountains, sometimes emitting painful wails or emitting weird laughter that penetrated people.

Those who listened had goosebumps all over their bodies.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. This is a variant of phosphorus fire. It is known as 'Leave a name before the fire'."

"During the tenth century AD (901 to 1000), an evil activity called 'burning one's body and dying' became popular in the Buddhist world."

“At that time, some so-called eminent monks believed that self-immolation could lead to rebirth. During the process of self-immolation, some eminent monks were unable to successfully go to the Pure Land because they were still obsessed with this world. Their regretful souls appeared in the form of will-o’-the-wisps. In the mountains.”

"I can only use two words to describe it: ignorant, stupid, stupid, and unfathomably stupid!"

Ye Xing shook his head, showing no sympathy for these poor people.

Since the Ivory Mountains are bare and there is no vegetation blocking the road, the journey is almost unobstructed.

The two of them quickly arrived at the center of the mountain.

"Watch out!"

Ye Xing was keenly aware of a sudden burst of unusual aura.

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground shook like an earthquake.

Dong dong dong dong——

Dong dong dong dong——

Big shiny heads emerged from the ground covered with rubble.

It's human!

Eighteen people in total!

To be precise, there are eighteen bronze figures!

Their bodies are as if they were poured out of copper,

From the top of the head to the soles of the feet, they are covered with terrifying knot-like muscles!

The angry-eyed Vajra is like the reincarnation of a living Buddha.

It is no exaggeration to say that with this image, you can enjoy half-price discounts at McDonald's every day. You can definitely eat real beef when eating beef noodles at Lanzhou Ramen Restaurant! ! !

【Eighteen bronze men? Eighteen Arhats? 】

[Trash collectors: Brass is 13 yuan per catty, copper is 20 yuan per catty, and scrap copper is priced according to the situation, over~]

[Fuleng: The Eighteen Arhats refers to the Sixteen Arhats + Two Lords. The prototype is the disciple of Sakyamuni. Large temples are conceived on the basis of the Eighteen Arhats and have eighteen bronze figures as gatekeepers. But that It’s just a title, I’ve never seen a real bronze man! 】

"These bronze figures are not real living people. Their bodies are human flesh, but mixed with a large amount of copper juice and molten iron. They can be understood as ancient 'artificial robots'."

"What's different from real robots is that this body has their remaining consciousness. That's what Hongyan told me."

Ye Xing, who was surrounded, pulled out his dragon teeth and prepared to attack.

"Anyone who breaks into this place without permission will be killed without mercy!"

Each of the eighteen bronze men held an iron rod and pointed it at the two men.

"Brother, don't get me wrong. I'm not here to cause trouble. I'm a fan of Zen Master Ikkyu. I grew up watching his plays."

"Gjigggggggggggggggggggg~We love you~Ggggggggggggggggggggggg~smart~"

These guys didn't look easy to mess with. Ye Xing didn't want to waste his energy here, so he clapped his hands and tried to impress them with his singing.

Bang bang bang! ! !

The eighteen bronze men danced with iron rods and pushed directly over.

"You are using the more to bully the less?!"

Ye Xing asked Ye Ji Hongyan to step on Xiao Hei to rise up, and fight against the Eighteen Bronze Men on his own.

Their bodies are comparable to steel and are invulnerable to weapons and bullets.

The dragon's teeth slashed at them and sparks shot out.

Although Ye Xing has the power to cut through steel, he needs a lot of strength to do so. These eighteen bronze men did not give him a chance to accumulate strength.

The head of the stick is like a gust of wind and rain, making it difficult for people to guard against it.

There is a special tacit understanding between them, and they match each other perfectly.

Ye Xing, who was in the center of the formation, felt that he was not facing eighteen people, but one hundred and eighty, one thousand eight hundred people!

Ye Xing, who was under great pressure, kept changing his moves. Although he was at a disadvantage, he showed no signs of defeat.

"One of them is the commander. As long as he surrenders, the others can stop their actions!"

The witch's red eyes gave off a little light in the dark night.

"Which one is it?"

Leafstar asked loudly as he rolled away from the stick blow.

"he......"

Just as Ye Ji Hongyan was about to speak, several bronze men below used the iron rods in their hands as javelins to throw at her.

Xiao Hei was hit by the iron rod, and the impact caused Ye Ji Hongyan to fall from the drone.

Another charging iron rod aimed accurately at her throat.

clang!

Yeji Hongyan blocked it in time with the Demon-Breaking Knife. Although the barrier she opened could protect against the invasion of evil spirits and monsters, it had no great effect on such ordinary physical attacks.

His body was blown away and hit a rock, blood stains oozing from his clothes.

"404 Tornado Scroll!"

The gravel on the ground was rolled up and impacted on the body of the Eighteen Bronze Man.

Leafstar didn't expect the gravel to do any harm to them.

He got the answer he wanted from the miko's expression.

Facing the sand and gravel, the seventeen bronze figures showed no expression on their faces and did not blink their eyes.

Only one instinctively narrowed his eyes.

“I found you—Zhan!”

Ye Xing arrived in front of the bronze man in an instant and slashed hard, cutting off his iron rod and his body.

The rest of the bronze figures froze in an instant, motionless as if someone had tapped their acupoints.

"Sir, please forgive me~"

The severed bronze man turned into an orange civet cat.

"It turns out to be a cat demon, pretending to be a ghost!"

Ye Xing knocked its head off with a punch, pinched its neck and came to Ye Ji Hongyan's side: "Is Ayou OK?"

Seeing that she was injured, Ye Xing took out the [Injury-Free Spray]: "Take off your clothes... Um, I mean spray it yourself."

After treating the wound, Ye Ji Hongyan praised: "Is this also the healing medicine that will be used five hundred years later? The effect is very strong."

As she spoke, she took over the civet cat that Ye Xing had pinched by its throat: "Back then, Zen Master Ikkyu raised a demon cat and was criticized by the world. If I remember correctly, the name of that civet cat was Shukaku, right?"

The civet cat then raised his head and saw Yeji Hongyan's face clearly. After being in a daze for a few seconds, his eyes almost popped out: "You are... you are the miko-sama!!!"

It is exactly the Shukaku that Yeji Hongyan talks about. Because of his Buddhist nature, Ikkyu was accepted as a registered disciple by Ikkyu.

A Shukaku has a long lifespan, and can live hundreds or even thousands of years as long as it keeps its tail flowing and gets enough sleep.

If the tail is broken off, it will die on the spot, so it keeps its tail between its legs.

Obviously, it had seen Ye Ji's beauty before, so it showed a look of surprise and respect.

After the demon sealing war ended, Zen Master Ikkyu lived in seclusion here to meditate and learn the Dharma.

In order to prevent anyone from disturbing them, he transformed the corpses of eighteen deceased eminent monks of Yuanxing Temple into bronze figures, and gave Shukaku the control method to guard the only way to Yuanxing Temple.

We also made use of the special geographical environment to create a fog formation, which changes every half month.

Whether it is humans or monsters who rashly break into it, they will either be trapped and die in it, or they will be killed by the bronze man.

"Master once said that if anyone can break this formation, he can enter Yuanxing Temple."

Shukaku, who accidentally hurt Ye Ji's beauty, knelt down and apologized to her. This guy was very timid.

"It's been so many years. Is your master still alive? Or is he no longer a human being?" Ye Xing questioned.

"I can't say for sure. You two will understand after you go there."

Shukaku straightened his head and took the initiative to lead the way.

Under its leadership, the two of them successfully arrived at the entrance of Yuanxing Temple near the top of the mountain...
