After the white-haired old man finished all this, his expression suddenly changed, and he saw a black halberd falling from the sky and shooting in his direction.
The white-haired old man waved his sleeves, and a thunder-shielding shield suddenly appeared in front of him. The surface of the shield, which was several feet in size, was flashing with dense thunder runes.
"Boom~"
There was a loud noise, and the halberd was stabbed directly on the shield, erupting into a large amount of black demonic energy, which was scattered in all directions.
But then the white-haired old man's face turned pale, and he saw a ball of black demonic energy shoot directly through the shield and onto the rock behind him, and then disappeared silently into the rock.
.
"Jie Jie, now you will become my food and be swallowed by me obediently." The black demonic energy in the sky gathered in mid-air and turned into a human body. He grabbed the old man with one hand from afar.
A black demonic hand dozens of feet long grabbed the white-haired old man from the air.
There was no color on the face of the white-haired old man. He pinched the magic formula with both hands. The nine-mouthed lightning sword floating beside him suddenly burst into lightning. The lightning became entangled together and turned into a thunder ball, shooting towards the black magic hand.
passed.
Under the lightning, it exploded directly and turned into thunder light all over the sky. However, the black magic hand shook slightly and exploded a large amount of magic energy, blocking the thunder light. However, the black magic hand continued to grab the white-haired old man.
.
The white-haired old man's eyes flashed with despair, and his heart was desolate. At this moment, all the past events emerged one by one in the sea of consciousness.
He thought of his high spirits when he was young and his hard work in middle age. Until now, he has reached the late Nascent Soul stage, but it is impossible to go further. That's why he took over the guarding seal of the Cold Valley Forbidden Land.
The mission is precisely to retreat here and hit the bottleneck of Nascent Soul's peak.
However, after hundreds of years of hard training, I still can't take that step. I feel unwilling to think that my path to immortality will stop here in this life.
Thinking of this, the old man's eyes suddenly burst into absolute light, and a long thunder knife beside him went directly towards his neck. He was already planning to break up his troops, release the Nascent Soul, and self-destruct to die with this monster.
You can't kill him, at least let him be seriously injured. He can't do evil for a short time and buy time for the sect.
"Demon, don't be so arrogant." Suddenly a loud voice shook the world, and a white light suddenly broke through the dark clouds in the void, rushed down from the sky, and directly hit the black demon hand.
The black magic hand and the white light collided together, and suddenly exploded, turning into black magic energy that filled the sky and spread everywhere.
The white light also spread, dispersing the dark clouds in the valley, and then revealed its true form, which was actually a sword radiating cold light, shining with pure white light.
"Aura of awe-inspiring power?" the man in black robe said in a solemn voice, and the scene from that year immediately appeared in his mind. The scene from that year had long been shattered in his sea of consciousness, but he still remembered it freshly. It seemed that it was this white light back then,
It was only after he dispersed all his demonic energy that his body was chopped off, leading to his current fate.
The sword suddenly turned into a white light, shot into the void, and fell into the hands of an old man in a white robe with gold patterns. Behind him, there were two people standing side by side. The auras emanating from these three people made the black robe
People are also secretly frightened.
"Join the three chief elders." The white-haired old man stopped fighting at the critical moment. After seeing the true face of the visitor, he suddenly showed a look of joy, and at the same time, he also felt a sense of weakness that he had survived a desperate situation.
"Junior Brother Zhao, thank you for your hard work. Please go aside and adjust your breathing for a while. Leave this demon's remnant soul to me."
"Jiejie, yes, three decent ones came at once, but I have just recovered a little strength, so I don't want to fight with you. I will let you go for now. The day he makes a comeback, you will be killed by Jiuyou.
time."
After speaking, a large amount of black demonic energy erupted from his body.
"Monsters, don't leave." The sword in the leader's old man's hand burst out with a white light, directly cutting into the demonic energy, cutting the demonic energy into pieces, but the figure of the black-robed man in the demonic aura had already disappeared.
"Senior Brother Wang, although this demon only has one soul and one soul, the magical powers and secrets it performs come from the upper world and are extremely mysterious. It seems that he has escaped through some kind of magical power."
"Hey, I didn't expect that this monster would be born one day. It seems that our Middle-earth has been peaceful for too long, and there will be trouble again."
"Senior Brother Wang, Senior Brother Song, Junior Brother, I think you are too worried. This demon only has one soul left, and its strength has recovered less than 10%. Now we have failed to break the cold valley seal. Let's take a moment.
Later, he mobilized his disciples and set up a heaven and earth net. Although China is huge, there may not be a place for him to stay."
"Junior Brother Li, don't be too pretentious. This demon's ambition is not just to fuse his own three souls and seven souls. In all likelihood, it comes for the Dragon Spirit Illusion. In recent days, for some unknown reason, those from the Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect of the West Pole have
The monk has begun to look covetously at my Daqian dynasty again, which has involved a lot of our energy. Now that this demon has appeared again, it really makes me feel that I cannot take care of everything at the same time."
"What Senior Brother Wang said is true. We should go back immediately to report it to the Sect Master. In addition, should we burn incense, pray, and tell the Senior Uncles about this matter?"
"Senior Brother Song, some trivial matters will alarm several junior uncles. Aren't you afraid of being punished?"
Hearing this, Senior Brother Wang waved his hand and said: "Whether I want to report to the Senior Uncles still needs to be decided by the Sect Master. Junior Brother Song, it is better for you to guard this place for the time being. After I report it to the Sect Master, we will see how the Sect Master handles this matter."
."
"Senior brother Wang, don't worry. Song is guarding this place. Even if the demon turns back, it will definitely not be able to succeed."
"Junior Brother Song's awe-inspiring aura is not inferior to that of my brother. It won't be a problem to suppress this demon, so we will leave first."
After saying this, the leader of the old man waved his sleeves and robes, and under the flash of white light, he and the monk named Li disappeared without a trace.
While the three of them were talking, the white-haired old man stood at the bottom uneasily and did not say a word, nor did he meditate to recover his mana.
The monk surnamed Song waited until the two left, then glanced at the white-haired old man: "Junior brother Zhao, you'd better return to the sect first and nurse your injuries, especially junior brother's state of mind, which is already showing signs of collapse. It's better to nurse him back.
Otherwise, I may not be able to reach the realm of a great monk in this life."
Hearing this, the white-haired old man sighed softly. He knew that what the monk surnamed Song said was true. After this experience, he indeed found that there was a big problem in his state of mind.
He actually showed his cowardice in front of the demon. This is indeed very dangerous for him who has practiced the Haoran Xuanzong method. This is not only related to whether he can advance to the rank of great monk in the future, but also related to his future cultivation.
, will it go crazy?
He couldn't help but think of Senior Brother Yin who was still lying on the bed. It was because of his mental state that he forcibly practiced Haoran Xuanzong's Heart Art, and he went crazy. Not only did his magic power disappear, but his meridians were severed.
The elixir saved a life, but in reality it was no different from a dead person.
The white-haired old man cupped his hands towards the monk surnamed Song, turned around and left silently.
The monk surnamed Song looked at the white-haired old man leaving, and just sighed, then landed on the rock platform and sat down cross-legged.
...
The news that the demon had broken into the forbidden area of Hangu had not spread. After the white-haired old man returned to his sect, he returned directly to the cave and locked himself up in death.
As for the death of the eight second-generation elders, the news was blocked by the senior officials of Emperor Haoran Tianzong, so it did not spread among the lower-level disciples.
The entire Haoyang Mountain is still very peaceful.
But this peace was broken thirty years later. The Daqian Dynasty and the Xiji Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect had another war. The Xiji Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect encouraged the secular army to invade the border of the Daqian Dynasty. The battle was extremely fierce.
.
Both sides invested more than 10 million soldiers, and tens of thousands of soldiers died every day.
But for the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong, these did not even make a splash. The Daqian Dynasty had hundreds of millions of soldiers, and such secular wars would happen almost every few decades. For immortal cultivators,
It’s no wonder.
After fighting for several years, both parties will naturally retreat and recuperate after losing a lot of energy.
However, ten years later, this war not only showed no signs of stopping, but instead intensified. In the end, many immortal cultivators even participated in it.
Suizhou, the western border of the Daqian Dynasty, was plunged into war, and many immortal cultivators supported by the Daqian Dynasty began to join the battlefield. In the end, the true emperor of the Daqian Dynasty even sent people to the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong to request reinforcements.
This made many chief elders of the Great Emperor Haoran Heavenly Sect unable to sit still. In the past, the wars launched by the Ancient Buddha Heavenly Sect in the West were mostly for the purpose of occupying land to develop believers and spread their faith.
After seeing that the resistance of the Daqian Dynasty was extremely strong, most of them chose to retreat. After all, the area controlled by the Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect of the West Pole was also vast. The only shortcoming was that the population was relatively sparse.
Therefore, they have been eyeing the Daqian Dynasty with a large population.
On Haoyang Mountain, a peak nearly ten thousand feet high, stands a simple white hall. This is the center of power of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong and the pillar of the entire Daqian Dynasty.
At the end of the steps of the main hall, stood an old man in his fifties in a white robe. On the snow-white robe, the cuffs and collar were embroidered with golden threads, and on his chest, there was a golden cloud embroidered. Very conspicuous.
Under the steps, there were three people standing. One of them was wearing a purple python suit and an official hat, standing with his hands behind his back. On the side beside him, there were two people, one of whom was clearly standing there. The old man named Wang who appeared in the forbidden area of Hangu.
The other person is a middle-aged monk in his forties, also wearing a white gold robe, but like the old man named Wang, the golden clouds on his chest are obviously much smaller.
"Sect Master, the bald donkeys from the West are coming this time. Not only have there been many wild monks, but there are also at least dozens of people in the early stage of Prajna in the Arhat Golden Body. These people are specially designed to deal with our tens of thousands of generals or more. Generals, we have lost more than a dozen generals so far."
"If this were the case, His Majesty the True Emperor would naturally not send his disciples here. In fact, the True Emperor judged that at least three of the golden bodies of Buddha Lotus Bodhisattva at the Bodhi stage have also arrived."
"The golden body of Buddha Lotus and Bodhisattva at the stage of Bodhi?"
The monk surnamed Wang next to him had a stern expression on his face: "This is equivalent to the existence of our immortal monks. Even these existences have entered the territory of our Daqian Dynasty. Could it be that the Ancient Buddha Tianzong of the West wants to start a full-scale war with us? Can’t do it?”
"Senior Brother Wang, those bald donkeys in the West have been coveting my ancestral land of Dragon Veins in China for a day or two. Maybe they have strong wings now and feel they can defeat us, so they launched this attack brazenly."
"Zhuo Haoran, I wonder what Junior Brother Ji thinks of this invasion of the West Pole Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect?" The Great Emperor Haoran Celestial Sect leader on the steps kept silent. After Zhuo Haoran finished speaking, he stroked three long strands of his hair. Xu asked calmly.
"His Majesty the True Emperor has a different view."
"Oh? Since the real emperor has different opinions, why didn't he say it earlier?" When the old man surnamed Wang heard this, he immediately showed an expression of dissatisfaction.
"Senior Brother Wang, please calm down. His Majesty the True Emperor is just guessing. Since the sect leader asked, Zhuo will naturally explain it in detail."
After a pause, Zhuo Haoran continued: "This time, as usual, the Xiji Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect was launched by a joint attack by many Buddhist countries in the Western Regions. However, a few years ago, people from the Xiji Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect suddenly intervened. , and the direction of their attack is also from Suizhou to the east. They should have entered Luzhou to capture Luzhou City, so that they can control these two states."
"But after the people of the Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect of the West Extreme Region intervened, the Buddhist army suddenly turned north and marched directly into Youzhou. Naturally, our Daqian Dynasty tried its best to resist, but what we didn't expect was that the people of the Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect of the West Pole This time they did not hold back, and the armies of the major Buddhist kingdoms were surprisingly brave and not afraid of death. They have penetrated all the way into the Beihuang Mountains of Youzhou. As long as they cross the Beihuang Mountains, they can reach the capital of Youzhou, Langyan City."
Hearing this, the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong's leader suddenly opened his eyes, and two rays of cold light flashed out, which actually illuminated the entire hall.
But soon the sect leader's eyes returned to normal. He looked at Zhuo Haoran solemnly and said lightly: "It seems that Junior Brother Ji and I have the same view. This time, the purpose of the Ancient Buddha Celestial Sect of the West Pole is
It should be Tiandang Mountain."
"Tiandang Mountain Dragon Yin Valley, Dragon Spirit Illusion?" At this moment, the monk surnamed Wang suddenly showed an astonished expression and said in shock.
"Yes, the same is true of the True Emperor's judgment. The only explanation for the unusual behavior of the Ancient Buddha Tianzong in the West is that they want to occupy the Longyin Valley in Tiandang Mountain. And we all know that the entrance to the Dragon Spirit Illusion is in the Longyin Valley.
In the Yin Valley, that’s why the True Emperor judged that they wanted to enter the Dragon Spirit Illusion Realm.”
After Zhuo Haoran finished speaking, he stopped, and the entire hall fell into dead silence for a moment.
The monk surnamed Wang and the middle-aged monk in his forties looked at each other, and they both saw expressions of surprise and surprise in each other's eyes.
"Is the Dragon Spirit Fantasy Realm about to open?"
