Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Gu Zuo looked at Long Pokong and said coldly: "Fellow Daoist Long, this Mu Zhaoming is an elder of the noble sect. Why is he colluding with that 'Demon Lord'? Can Fellow Daoist Long give me an explanation?" "

Long Pokong took back the Nine Dragons Demon Seal with a gloomy expression: "Long also doesn't know why Junior Brother Mu... Mu Zhaoming would do such a heinous thing."

"This move is no different from deceiving the master and destroying the ancestor. I think it is nothing more than being tempted by the demon king, or being obsessed by the demon king."

"But no matter what, it was his personal doing and had nothing to do with Mo Yuan Palace. Fellow Taoists should not be wrong about this, right?"

Gu Zuo's expression softened, and the other great monks nodded.

However, Zongzhu Wei still looked extremely solemn and reminded: "Fellow Taoists, be careful. Apart from Mu Zhaoming, there may not be anyone else who has connections with that demon..."

Dao Xuan nodded slightly and glanced at the Nascent Soul cultivators: "What Daoist Fellow Wei said is true. This matter must be guarded against. However, you fellow Daoists don't have to fight with grass and trees. When in this crisis, you still have to watch and help each other."

Long Pokong added: "Mu Zhaoming was the first to discover the expansion of the Demon Realm. At that time, he should have already had dissent. It was only when he reported the matter to the family that Long did not suspect him."

"Now that I think about it, he must have tried to hide it. Since then, no one has gone deep into the Demon Realm like today. It is not easy to connect with the Demon Lord. We must not mess up our position."

Chu Xiao said coldly: "It's just a show. It doesn't matter what kind of demon or god it is. It's just that after the demon god's phantom was shattered, my strength was weakened by 20 to 30% for no reason. If I face the monster again, it won't matter." It’s easy.”

Her words aroused everyone's response: "When I circulate my true energy, it also stagnates a lot."

"The phantom of the demon god is absolutely extraordinary. At first glance, I feel trembling in my heart and filled with fear. Could it be the demon lord that Mu Zhaoming mentioned?"

"Impossible! How can a treasure fascinate Mu Zhaoming? In my opinion, it is probably the treasure given to him by the Demon Lord to weaken our strength, so that the Demon Lord can take action against us."

"Hmph, Mu Zhaoming was a Yuanying monk in vain, betrayed the sect, worked for the demon king, and even risked his life..."

"He may have been bewitched by the Demon Lord, but it was not his intention..."

"It's useless to say this. When our strength is weakened, the Demon Lord has not yet shown up. What should we do?"

These Nascent Soul cultivators, who are considered the ancestors of the sect, were in a state of panic at this moment, cursing Mu Zhaoming and worrying about the Demon Lord hiding in the dark.

Chen Yuan was much calmer. He communicated privately with Xuan Yuanzi, Master Shen, and Tang Jiugong. When they were operating their true energy, they were much more stagnant and their strength was weakened a lot.

The four of them stayed close together and were on guard. It was possible that other monks, like Mu Zhaoming, had taken refuge with the Demon Lord.

Chen Yuan was also wary of Xuan Yuanzi and Master Shen, but he didn't show it.

Mr. Tang Jiu has never been to the Demon Realm, and it is impossible for him to be secretly connected with the Demon Lord. However, Xuan Yuanzi and Master Shen have been outside the Demon Realm for more than 20 years. They have also gone deep into the Demon Realm and have many opportunities to seek refuge with the Demon Lord.

At this moment, the Nascent Soul monster rushed over from a distance. Daoxuan took the lead and rushed forward. He said loudly: "The matter has come to an end. It is useless to talk more. I also ask all fellow Taoists to take action together to kill the monster."

Yan Zhang also rushed towards the monster and said in a deep voice: "Fellow Taoists, don't worry. The Demon Lord must be afraid of us joining forces, so he used this method. Otherwise, there is no need to sacrifice the phantom. He only needs to come forward to suppress us." That’s it.”

Elder Zhou spoke at the right time: "Although the Qing Ling Qi has been destroyed, I prepared a backup strategy before entering the demonic realm. As long as these monsters are destroyed, I still have a way to destroy this giant pillar of demonic Qi."

Dao Xuan turned around and said: "Junior Brother Lu, Junior Brother Wei, you two must protect Junior Brother Zhou and make no mistakes!"

"yes!"

The two Tianxuan Sect elders he pointed out immediately responded, came to Elder Zhou's side, and looked around cautiously.

Under this encouragement, everyone's morale was greatly boosted, and the monsters had already rushed forward. They had no time to think about it and could only step forward to meet the enemy.

Chen Yuan still found an eighth-level monster, which looked like an elk. It had two horns on its head, was coiled and twisted, was covered in scales, had a mouth full of fangs and sharp teeth, had four thick hooves, and had red eyes. It had a very ferocious appearance.

This elk monster is similar in strength to the three-eyed monster leopard, but it is infinitely powerful. Chen Yuan has to deal with it more laboriously than before.

After the Divine Shadow was shattered, his body seemed to be covered with a net. His true energy was stagnant, his body was heavy, and his strength was weakened by at least 20%.

However, the strength of the monsters was not affected. The eighth-level monsters that could have been dealt with easily had to be taken seriously by Chen Yuan, even with some difficulty.

Of course, if he sacrifices the Chongxuan Peak, this eighth-level monster will not be his enemy.

But at this time, he would naturally not be the first to avoid being targeted by monsters.

Different from before, this time the monsters attacked in separate attacks and advanced and retreated in a controlled manner. The Nascent Soul monks who had shown great power before were all under siege.

Young Master Tang Jiu has extraordinary escaping skills. The monster that found him was a demon falcon that was only about ten feet in size. It was incredibly fast and entangled Young Master Tang Jiu, making it difficult to tell the difference.

Master Shen's flying sword is sharp. His opponent is a giant rhinoceros covered in heavy armor. It moves slowly, but its skin is rough and thick, making it difficult for the flying sword to damage it.

Xiao Lingzi had previously released thousands of blood spirits and sucked up the flesh and blood of two level eight monsters, which was extremely eye-catching. Now he was besieged by three monsters, which made him quite embarrassed.

The monsters in front of Xiao Mingyuan and Mo Daoyu were all very powerful, and they were not at a disadvantage when they wrestled with them.

There were many such examples.

Everyone was caught in a bitter battle, and even two Nascent Soul cultivators underestimated the enemy and died in the hands of the monsters, and three others were seriously injured.

The weakening of two or three percent of strength may seem insignificant, but the monsters are still strong. In addition to being fearless, they have also "born" with intelligence. With one increase and one decrease, everyone is at a disadvantage.

The seven great cultivators who had previously crushed the enemy were also blocked by several level 10 monsters. Although they had the upper hand, they were difficult to win.

Seeing that everyone was caught in a fierce battle, Chen Yuan was shocked and dared not show his strength. He continued to hide his weakness and fought with the level 8 elk in close combat. It seemed that the fight was very lively, but in fact there was no risk at all.

Although this group of monsters was ferocious, they had only one method after all, and the seven great cultivators still had trump cards that they had not used.

The "Demon Lord" mentioned by Mu Zhaoming has not appeared yet, and there may be a backup plan.

Chen Yuan became more alert, but as time went by, no new changes occurred.

Roars and shouts intertwined, the light of magic weapons and magical powers illuminated the dim sky, the dark demonic energy swirled, the body of the monster fell from the sky, and the scarlet eyes remained fierce.

There were also unfortunate Yuanying cultivators who died at the hands of the monsters and were swallowed by them in a few bites. The shrill shouts echoed, leaving only the friends who were sad for him to avenge him.

Finally, the situation changed.

Gu Zu suddenly stood up and killed the tenth-level monster in front of him, turned around and flew towards Daoxuan, shouting: "Brother, I'm here to help you, don't hold back!"

Daoxuan heard the words, his eyes became fierce, the magic formula in his hand changed immediately, and the sky changed color immediately.

Within a thousand feet radius, white clouds gathered and condensed into a giant dragon, a hundred feet long, with two green lights flickering in the dragon's eyes. With a long roar, the dragon roar shook the air, winding down, and rushed straight to the two monsters in front of him.

He was besieged by two level ten monsters. Although he had the upper hand, he could not kill them and was deadlocked.

Seeing this, everyone's morale was boosted.

This was the first time that a level ten monster was killed or injured since everyone entered the Demon Realm.

There were many monsters in the Demon Realm, but there were only eight level ten monsters in total. Except for the two that besieged Daoxuan, the rest were fighting one by one.

The death of a level ten monster would immediately break the balance.

But the monsters were all fearless and fearless. Even if they had intelligence, they would not retreat. Instead of retreating, they advanced and each used their magical powers to rush up.

Daoxuan sneered and pointed. The hundred-foot cloud dragon opened its mouth and spit out a cold breath, freezing one monster, and then stretched out its sharp claws and grabbed the other monster fiercely.

This is his most powerful magical power, called "Cloud Dragon Transformation". He has practiced it for many years and consumed a lot of true energy. If it were placed in the outside world, it would be enough to condense a cloud dragon dozens of miles long, which would have the power to destroy the world.

In this demonic domain, suppressed by the demonic energy, the cloud dragon has shrunk a lot, but facing two level ten monsters, it is still very sharp.

However, Daoxuan also consumed a lot of energy to perform this magical power, and the true energy in his body was temporarily empty.

He needs three breaths of time to recover as usual, which is a gap, and he is likely to be caught by these intelligent monsters.

If Gu Zu had not pulled out his hand, Daoxuan would not dare to do so and let himself fall into danger.

As he expected, Yunlong showed off his power and suppressed the two level 10 monsters, but they immediately broke free from the claws of the cold dragon and attacked desperately.

Daoxuan tried his best to circulate his true energy, and in a flash, he teleported a hundred feet away and avoided the attack.

Monsters don't know how to lock the world, and the seven great monks can teleport freely.

As a result, his true energy became even more empty, and he had no strength to fight again.

But the attack of the two level 10 monsters was too fierce, and it also revealed a flaw. Gu Zu flipped his hand and offered a yellow gourd, and pointed: "Go!"

The yellow gourd swelled in the wind and turned into a size of about ten feet. The mouth of the gourd flashed, and the red flames were mixed with silver-white arcs, pouring out in a big way!

Everyone's eyes lit up. This is a very famous high-level magic weapon of Tianxuan Sect, the Thunder and Fire Gourd, which is refined from the thunder and fire of heaven and earth.

There was once a level 10 demon king and two mid-Nascent Soul cultivators who died under the thunder and fire gourd, and they were famous.

The thunder and fire from the sky and the earth were extremely yang and strong. The demonic energy retreated, and the two fearless level 10 monsters also showed a rare sign of shrinking and stopped chasing Daoxuan.

Either they spit out demonic energy, or curled up their bodies, revealing their solid scales, and tried their best to resist.

But under the thunder and fire, the two level 10 monsters flew out backwards, their bodies were charred everywhere, and the blood that flowed out was evaporated, and they let out a shrill howl.

Daoxuan felt relieved, and the morale of the crowd was also boosted. The two of them had a tacit understanding. Daoxuan was the bait, and Gu Zu took action, severely damaging the two level 10 monsters in one fell swoop.

In addition to the level 10 monster that died in Gu Zu's hands, the human cultivators have firmly gained the upper hand.

Next, Daoxuan and Gu Zu only need to work together to kill the two monsters, and then go to help other great monks. Even if everyone's strength is weakened, these monsters are no match.

No matter how many Yuanying early monks there are, no matter how fierce the eighth-level monsters are, they can't shake the overall situation.

The outcome of this battle still depends on the fight between the great monks and the tenth-level monsters.

But at this moment, Gu Zu's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light, and his figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.

Chen Yuan's face suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Master Daoxuan, be careful!"

Daoxuan was stunned. The next moment, Gu Zu appeared behind him, took out a short black thorn, and stabbed him hard at the back of his heart!

An ancient rattan shield appeared out of thin air behind Daoxuan, shining brightly, blocking the broken thorn and firmly protecting Daoxuan's back.

At the same time, a jade pendant on his waist broke by itself, forming a colorless light shield that enveloped Daoxuan's whole body.

The top-level magic weapon protects the master by itself, and the ancient jade talisman protects the body. Even if facing a blow from a great monk, he can retreat unscathed.

But these two treasures are as fragile as rice paper in front of the inconspicuous three-inch short thorn.

The short thorn pierced the rattan shield silently, cut through the light shield, and deeply sank into Daoxuan's back.

"You!" Daoxuan opened his eyes wide, turned around and threw a golden gourd hammer, hitting Gu Zu's head.

But Gu Zu was prepared, and offered a round shield to easily block the golden gourd hammer.

The spell in his hand changed, and the mouth of the thunder and fire gourd turned, and another stream of heavenly thunder and earthly fire poured out, heading straight for Daoxuan.

Daoxuan immediately circulated his true energy, but it was extremely sluggish, and he could only watch the thunder and fire rushing towards him.

Just as he was about to be submerged by the heavenly thunder and earthly fire, several blood shadows flew over from the side and blocked Daoxuan.

The heavenly thunder and earthly fire fell on the blood shadows, and the blood vapor steamed, and the bloody smell spread, but it was difficult to advance an inch.

At the same time, Chu Xiao's angry voice came out: "Gu Zu, how dare you do this!"

She pointed at one point, and a golden hairpin flew out, turning into a golden stream of light, shooting towards Gu Zu at an incredibly fast speed.

After Yan Zhang drove the blood shadow to block the heavenly thunder and earthly fire, several more blood shadows flew over and rushed straight to Gu Zu.

Seeing that he had lost the opportunity, Gu Zu did not hold on, smiled slightly, and his figure flashed, teleported a hundred feet away, avoiding the golden hairpin blood shadow.

Everyone was stunned.

In a flash, Gu Zu attacked and severely injured Daoxuan, which was like a fairy tale.

At this time, they just reacted and exclaimed: "Gu Daoyou, what do you mean?"

"Gu Senior Brother, how can you attack the head master?"

"Gu Daoyou..."

Daoxuan's mouth was bleeding, his face was pale, and he stared at Gu Zu: "Gu Junior Brother, why did you do this?"

Gu Zu did not answer, but first glanced at Chen Yuan, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

When he attacked Daoxuan just now, no one noticed it, only Chen Yuan reminded him.

Chen Yuan looked grim, and suddenly exerted force to kill the elk monster and put away the magic core.

When Gu Zu performed the teleportation technique, he noticed that the space fluctuation was different, as if it was going towards Daoxuan, so he reminded him.

But Daoxuan was not on guard against Gu Zu at all, so he still succeeded.

Chen Yuan's reminder not only had no effect, but also made Gu Zu stare at him, with an extremely ugly face. (End of this chapter)
