Pawn Crossing the River

After experiencing a fork in the road, Qi Xuansu and Qi Jiayao were back on the right track to Lingshan, but this road was still difficult to navigate. In Qi Xuansu's view, Yao Zu was like a casual craftsman. All kinds of tools, blanks, finished products, semi-finished products, and scraps were thrown all over the floor without clearing them up. Except for the craftsman himself, anyone who came in would stumble.

Lingshan Cave is like a workshop. Not only are there the battlefield sites after the battle between the ancient witches and the Tianshi Sect, but there are also various creations left here by Yao Zu. The closer you get to Lingshan, the more creations there are, and these creations also carry creation projects. The early style was mainly based on corpse refining.

According to Qi Jiayao, when she first came, these creations were still sleeping, so she just had to be careful not to wake up. But it's different now. It may be that the collapse of the underground city triggered the defense mechanism of Lingshan Cave Sky. These creations were all activated and were not controlled by Jianxiu Shanbing and other authorities, causing great obstacles.

When the blood moon appeared, Qi Xuansu and Qi Jiayao took shelter in a temple ruins as usual. It turned out that it was Yao Zu or some earth master who placed a stone coffin here. At midnight, the lid of the coffin slid open, and inside The "dirty thing" has risen.

Considering Qi Xuansu and Qi Jiayao's level of cultivation, ordinary zombies can naturally be dismissed casually, but this corpse is obviously very unusual. The whole body seems to have been burnt by fire, and is charred black. The skin is as black as iron and is covered with cracks. A faint green flame spurted out from the gap.

After the corpse came out of the coffin, it walked towards the two of them step by step. Every step it took left a clear footprint on the ground, and even traces of fire remained on the footprints.

This fire is corpse fire.

It has been recorded in Taoist classics that among the zombies, the bronze-armored corpse is the most famous. It is said to be invulnerable to water and fire, and ordinary magic weapons cannot damage it at all. It is almost comparable to the Buddhist golden body. On top of the bronze-armored corpse, there are also There is a legendary drought demon who is not among the Five Elements and transcends the Three Realms. As soon as he is born, corpses and fire fill the sky. Wherever he goes, he will definitely attract thunder and punishment from heaven.

The Creation Project also tried to imitate the Drought Demon, but failed. This corpse should be a failed imitation of the Drought Demon.

At first glance, it seems that its little intelligence should have dissipated as the corpse fire burned, leaving only instinct.

In terms of Qi Xuansu's current cultivation level, it would still be beyond his power to kill him directly with one sword or one blow, but it would not be difficult to kill him with just a few more blows. But after Qi Xuansu took action, he didn't expect that this thing was actually sane. Seeing that he was defeated, he turned around and fled deep into the temple.

Qi Xuansu followed closely behind.

After reaching the depths of the temple, Qi Xuansu was shocked to find that there were seventeen identical sarcophagi here.

These sarcophagi are not lying on the ground, but are standing upright. They are eight feet high. There are not many joint marks on the whole. They seem to be carved from a single piece of stone. There are many totems and talismans embossed on the coffin lids. The four corners are also carved with four different beasts for suppression.

Qi Jiayao recognized the roots of these sarcophagi: "It seems to be a variant of the Taoist method of 'Eighteen Mingding'."

This ghost looks like a ghost and has pushed these coffins away one by one.

There are also corpses inside, but they are not as "full" as this ghost thing. They are all mummified corpses.

These mummies only have a layer of gray-white dry skin covering their dry skeletons, but in their chests, there is a blood-red stone heart, which can be clearly seen through the almost transparent dry skin. The moment the sarcophagus is opened, these hearts begin to beat continuously, full of life.

As the heart beats, streams of red blood flow like spring water in a spring, filling the bones and flesh, making the originally shriveled mummy become plump at a speed visible to the naked eye, and eventually burn as well. Green corpse fire arose.

Qi Xuansu originally thought that these eighteen ghosts were going to form a formation, but it turned out that the earliest corpse devoured all the other seventeen corpses at a speed that was comparable to Xiao Yin.

At the same time, a biting coldness and resentment quickly spread. In an instant, everything they could see was filled with billowing black clouds, like a huge avalanche, pressing down so hard that they could barely see their fingers. The temperature also suddenly became extremely cold at this moment. It was not a pure coldness, but an icy coldness that penetrated the soul, mixed with the unique decaying meaning of corpse refining.

Faintly, there were also thin and dense sounds of wailing, from small to loud, from far to near.

Qi Xuansu didn't dare to advance and simply gave up on stopping him.

Qi Jiayao whispered: "It turns out to be refining the 'Taiyin Corpse'."

Before Qi Jiayao could explain in detail what the Taiyin Corpse was, a terrifying and ferocious aura suddenly erupted. For a moment, it was as if the yin and yang were reversed and transformed into the underworld of ghosts.

When the black fog dissipated, only a charred corpse was left. It swayed, and the black ash attached to the body fell. There are actually layers of scales growing underneath, which are different from fish scales, but something similar to scales, with a hint of iron-green color.

This Taiyin corpse looks very much like Asura, one of the eight Buddhist sects.

In the Buddhist scriptures, "Asura" means upright, and then extends to the god of heaven, while "A" means negation, so "Asura" means non-heaven.

Asura is one of the six paths in Buddhism. He is a powerful god in the world of desire. He is angry and aggressive, brave and good at fighting. He has fought fierce battles with God Deva many times. However, Asura also worships Buddhism and is one of the eight heavenly dragons, the protector gods of Buddhism. .

The Buddhist scriptures say: Male Asuras are ugly, while female Asuras are upright and beautiful. Therefore, King Asura often fought with the Deva gods headed by Shakti. Because Asura had beauties but no good food, and Shakti had good food but no beautiful women, the two gods were jealous of each other, and there were reports of wars. Therefore, the battlefield is called the "Shura Field".

In the plan of the eight tribes before the creation project, under "Emperor Shakti" is "Asura", which is further divided into "Great Asura" and "Asura King", which correspond to the created gods and pseudo-immortals respectively.

The face of the Taiyin Corpse was still stiff, but the eyes that had been closed had slowly opened, revealing eyes that were pitch black without any white.

In the blink of an eye, the scales on his body had spread to his entire face, and a rippling blood appeared in his dark eyes, which was so weird that it made people's scalp numb.

Needless to say, Qi Xuansu and Qi Jiayao attacked at the same time, without any reservation, striving to achieve success with one blow.

The Taiyin Corpse stretched out its hands that were completely covered by scales and grasped Qi Jiayao's long sword and Qi Xuansu's "Qingyun" respectively. Although the scales on the palms were torn apart by the sword energy, a turbid black flow emerged from the wound. The energy was constantly rolling, filling and repairing the scales and flesh. At the same time, the black energy seemed to have a corrosive effect, making the blades of the two swords chirp.

Then a vast force of energy suddenly erupted from its body.

Qi Xuansu stood slightly further forward than Qi Jiayao, so he was the first to bear the brunt and had to step back. His feet slipped out of two ravines on the ground, but even so, his entire chest was still sunken. If it weren't for Wu Fu's poor physique, Support, just a meeting, will be seriously injured.

Compared to Qi Xuansu, Qi Jiayao, who was standing slightly behind, was slightly better. His body floated and he stepped back, tapping his toes on the ground constantly, bursting lotus-shaped traces, creating a lotus with each step, and a lotus with each step.

Qi Jiayao also has a protective semi-immortal object called the "Ruyi Dingguangshi". After unfolding, it looks like a huge glowing eggshell, protecting Qi Jiayao unscathed.

Qi Jiaoyao relied on the "Ruyi Dingguangshi" to protect his body. Instead of retreating, he advanced forward and pierced the Taiyin Corpse's heart with his sword. The sword energy directly exploded a wound as big as a bowl on its chest, but there was no trace of flesh and blood in the wound. There is only the endless rolling black energy, frantically repairing the body.

Then Taiyin Corpse pushed out a palm flatly and slapped it on Qi Jiaoyao's "Ruyi Dingguang", making a loud sound like hitting a big bell.

Qi Jiayao's expression changed slightly and he had to draw his sword and retreat. At the same time, he waved his sleeves and scattered dense talismans to block the Taiyin Corpse's pursuit. .

But before they even got close, these talismans turned into ashes.

Although this Taiyin corpse is only the "Great Asura", it is not far away from the "King Asura" and should not be underestimated.

At this moment, Taiyin Corpse attacked Qi Xuansu again, with a speed that could not be described as lightning and flint, and was not inferior to the martial artist of good fortune. Just relying on pure physical strength, the fist punch broke through the air, and the wind of the fist violently rubbed against the air, creating a huge buzzing sound.

This punch hit Qi Xuansu's body, shaking endlessly. Although the Taiyin Corpse swayed a small amount that was not easy to detect due to the force of the counter-shock, it still seemed motionless. Between it and Qi Xuansu, a huge ripple visible to the naked eye appeared. , so that the ground under the feet of both sides was overturned, and the flying rocks were crushed into powder by the ripples in an instant.

Qi Xuansu stood motionless on the spot. Three hundred and sixty-five gods appeared around him. Seeing that the gods were not bad, he punched the Taiyin Corpse on the forehead. The Taiyin Corpse crashed out and its body was embedded in the wall of the temple. In the middle, there was a continuous cracking sound.

But in the blink of an eye, Taiyin Corpse had pulled out its body from the wall, and returned at a faster speed. It hit Qi Xuansu with its shoulder, sending him flying backwards several feet.

The next moment, Qi Xuansu stood firm, and both sides punched at the same time. The two fists collided head-on, and another huge ripple spread out in all directions.

The Taiyin Corpse swept out with its arms, and was hit in the joints by Qi Xuansu with "Zhou Guangshi". After all, the Taiyin Corpse did not have the ever-changing magic of martial arts, and its body structure was still within the category of "human". After the joints were broken by Qi Xuansu, it exerted force for After a lag, Qi Xuansu seized the opportunity and hit Taiyin Corpse's chin with his elbow, causing its head to be raised high and it fell to the ground.
