Chapter 103: Wonderful Treasures, Brave and Timid Choices
The fifth auxiliary realm.
Ma Yuan's image at this time was vaguely visible with four wings on his back. His vitality had reached an unprecedented level. A faint golden pattern appeared on his forehead.
But there are two details that are different from usual and worthy of attention.
First of all, just looking at the face, it seems that there is blood that appears and disappears, changing repeatedly between light red and blue and white. In any case, it is definitely not a relaxed and freehand image.
Secondly, his body was fixed in the air, and he would jump up from time to time. It was obvious that this was not his intention, but that he was inexplicably pulled by a strange force and couldn't help but float away.
Whenever his body floated more than a hundred feet, an invisible force of traction would be transmitted from a faintly green magic circle below, "drag" him back.
At this time, Ma Yuan was located due east.
Except for him, the Zhenshi is located due south; Shen Tuhong is located due west; and Zong Zhengsi is located due north. Their appearance and Qi are the same as those of Ma Yuan, except for a faint golden pattern on their foreheads.
, the sign of body shape floating is also exactly the same.
Outside the four people's position, dark clouds were rolling in, and the sun and moon could not be distinguished. It was obvious that the enemy had used tactics to tightly surround this place.
At this moment, a gray shadow flashed away outside Li Xu. A magical power came, mixed with five thunders, one fire, and four drops of turbid water, and condensed into a very strange bunch.
Ma Yuan turned around to block it.
The four shadows of wings on his body suddenly shone brightly, like a baptism of lightning. Finally, in the face of all kinds of difficulties, a light shield about the size of a foot was condensed, which blocked the enemy's "Three Layers of Far and Near Transformation" divine channel technique.
But without paying attention, a section of his sleeves was melted away by fireworks.
Ma Yuan frowned.
In the eyes of those who have not yet entered the Tao, monks in the realm of the golden elixir are already coming and going like lightning, and their progress is like a god. Let alone the Nascent Soul monks who have crossed the threshold between the physical and the physical.
But in the realm of the three transformations of heaven and man, the speed of mental movement, magic movement, magical power condensation, and attack is even faster. Even some clouds, fog, smoke, and cloud magical powers that seem to move very slowly on the surface,
In fact, it arrived in an instant, no less than the sword, light, thunder and lightning.
This feeling is very strange, as if it has moved in the void.
After Ma Yuan's martial arts progressed further, coupled with the tyrannical power of the demon tribe, he was able to deal with his opponent. However, his opponent was trying to gain the upper hand, but he could only passively defend himself. This battle became extremely difficult to continue.
"Alas!"
At this moment, a shout came from afar.
Ma Yuan turned around and saw that it was Zong Zhengsi who had been attacked by powerful enemies again, and his heart sank.
It seems that the two opponents who were injured initially have regained their fighting strength after half an hour of rest.
Zong Zhengsi was protected by a rare treasure and was not seriously injured. However, he saw that his energy had dissipated and he had no strength to fight again in a short period of time. If he could barely support it, even the small formation that was temporarily used as a retreat would have to be
That part of him was broken through.
Ma Yuan immediately shouted without hesitation: "Retreat!"
After hearing the news, Zhenshi, Shentuhong, and Zongzhengsi also retreated into the small formation filled with smoke.
The scene in the formation was really strange.
On a square table, there is a copper lamp. On top of the copper lamp, there is a ball supported by six elevated legs, which is being slowly roasted by the light. The three people sit around, constantly adjusting their movements.
Mana maintains the inexplicable changes between the light and the ball.
These three people are all from the Red Mei tribe, and two of them are newly promoted sect chiefs. However, they did not fight with Ma Yuan and others, but did some subordinate work here.
The object that the three of them were looking after was the rare treasure that the Lifu clan had recently refined that they brought with them when they entered the formation.
This treasure is designed to apply ancient methods to the present, eliminate the unnecessary and retain the essential, and establish a new chapter from an unexpected angle, showing its own unique light.
In ancient times, there was a method known as the "Spirit Drawing Talisman". It was to refine the soul of a great demon into a talisman seed. When it came time to fight, he would attract this thing and merge it with his own soul, just like a demon.
It's like being possessed by a spirit. Considering the endurance limit of the person who casts the spell, it can increase the combat power by at least one level. It can be said to be an extremely powerful secret method.
However, as time goes by, this method has gradually been lost to this day.
Not to mention the difficulty of refining such treasures and the limited number of times they can be used. The cultivation and protection of direct disciples can be done at any cost. Among the disadvantages of this item, the most difficult to correct is its unavoidable side effects.
A cultivator's body can be refined to the golden elixir realm to perfect the physical shell; but if the divine will is not bad at all, it must at least be at the level of the Tianxuan realm. Before that, one's own soul and demon spirit
When the spirit and soul are in harmony, if the small is used to control the big, the consequences will be serious. At the least, habits will be affected unknowingly, and the temperament will change drastically; at worst, the soul will be injured, and the Tao will be greatly damaged.
In this way, if it is left to the core of the sect's direct descendants, it is definitely not feasible; but if it is left to the winged thugs, there are many more affordable methods, so why bother to go through this circle? In this way, it will gradually disappear.
Unknown.
However, the "Second Transformation Furnace of Returning to God" made by the Lifu clan has a new idea and is different from others.
First, the refined soul is that of a demon named "Mleep Mirage". Although it is full of spiritual power and unparalleled agility, it is extremely difficult to capture. However, once its soul is refined, it is relatively gentle and has relatively little destructive power.
Secondly, the purpose of this object is not to directly activate it by refining the talisman as usual. Instead, it binds its soul and energy in the "Five Return Pearl", slowly roasts it, and then transmits it through inexplicable power.
The side effects that are originally very minor to the person who uses it are finally completely shielded through this second layer of insurance protection.
Since this treasure was refining and came out, it had to be taken out in a hurry. The other treasure that matched it had not yet been formed. Therefore, it needed to be taken care of by someone. In fact, after everything was ready, the effect of this treasure was
The mana required can be borne by another secret treasure that has been arranged in advance.
When they were fighting just now, the reason why Ma Yuan and others couldn't help but "float" was because with the support of this object, their cultivation level was close to the realm of god transformation, and they were almost about to break out of the realm. Every time they encountered
At this sign, the treasure was activated in time and dragged several people back.
Ma Yuan, Shen Tuhong, Zong Zhengsi, and Zhen Shi all fell into the formation together.
Zong Zhengsi closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing, while Ma Yuan just waited quietly.
The fighting in this auxiliary realm was the most brutal.
After realizing that the opponent was actually at the early stage of Buxu, the "Return to God Second Transformer", which was originally useless, was immediately put into use. And taking advantage of the opponent's negligence, he injured two people as soon as he came up.
The Shinto monks on the side of the Holy Religion were also angered and stood firm to surround and consume them, as if they would not stop fighting.
The Yin Sect side is not to blame, and Qin Menglin has absolute confidence. It is estimated that if the Holy Sect side has strong support and uses all its elites to challenge our seemingly most confident four formations, they may be impacted.
It was Ma Yuan's time.
Therefore, Zhenshi and the rare treasure he carried were not divided into separate forces in the end. However, judging from the final result, it does not seem to be an optimal choice. If Zhenshi secretly carried this treasure, the Xunqingni, Yuancrocodile and other clans would be
The opponent may be seeking a victory, and the hope will be greater.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Zong Zhengsi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's a lot of trauma. It doesn't take half an hour to fully restore the old outlook."
Ma Yuan, Zhen Shi and Shen Tu Hong were all silent when they heard this.
If our goal is to hold on and not lose, we can certainly achieve it with the help of formations. But... within half an hour, it is expected that the Holy Cult will be able to find the signs of turbidity, which will completely seal the victory.
Now, there is one last way.
Ma Yuan raised his head slightly and shifted his gaze to the "Second Transformer of Return to God".
The magical function of this furnace requires the help and guidance of three direct descendants of the Red Mei clan, and Zhenshi has not reserved any reservations. The key points are known to everyone.
In fact, the reason why the "Return to God Second Transformation Furnace" is called "Second Transformation" is precisely because it has two levels of functions. The first level is exactly what the four of them are currently using. There will be a faint trace on the forehead, and the combat power is also
This can make great progress.
But if the "second turn" is triggered, their respective combat strengths can further increase.
But before leaving, the demon king of the Lifu clan warned Zhenshi. Even if he encounters a strong enemy, he will at most have to use his "first turn" combat power.
Nowadays, the sleeping mirage essence contained in the "Five Returns Pearl" is only enough to be used three times in the second-turn state. If it is used once, it will be one less time. If it is only the power of one turn, it can be used at least dozens of times.
This is just a trivial matter. What's more important is that because this furnace is only preliminary, it can only guarantee that the first turn will have no side effects. As for whether the second turn is like this, further verification is needed, and it is very likely that there are hidden hidden things that have not yet been discovered.
The hidden dangers discovered. All the powerful demons in the clan have already planned to collect rare treasures and refine this furnace for the second time.
As a very important figure in the Lifu clan, Zhenshi naturally cannot take risks.
Now, what the seven people are worried about is precisely this matter.
The three descendants of the Chimei clan who were responsible for the care looked at each other with a bit of helplessness.
In addition to them, Ma Yuan, Zhen Shi and other four people are all of high status and cannot easily take risks.
Two of the three of them had newly acquired the position of sect leader, and it was a time when they were in high spirits. In fact, in their opinion, even if they take some risks, if they can make great achievements for the clan, it is completely worth it.
It's a pity that they have already experienced their cultivation beforehand. These three people's achievements are slightly inferior. Even if they enter the first realm, their combat power is only similar to Ma Yuanchang's. From this, it can be seen that even if these three people use the "second realm"
"The method is just equivalent to Ma Yuan using his "first turn" combat power, and it is just a waste of an opportunity to use this treasure.
Shen Tuhong was the first to break the silence: "I'll give it a try."
When she spoke, her face was resolute. Although she was a woman, she had an aura as solid as iron.
After Shen Tuhong said this, he became enlightened. Even if he never came back, he would not hesitate.
Ma Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly and he sighed softly. He neither agreed nor objected.
He is by no means a timid person. It's just that everyone present has different priorities.
Ma Yuan carries the expectations of the next demon ancestor of the Tianma clan; and the Zhenshi has special significance to the Lifu clan. Only Shen Tuhong, although they are both the head of the direct line, has more than enough foundation to become the demon king, and to become the demon ancestor
But it has some shortcomings, and it is not irreplaceable among the Red Mei clan. Both sides are very clear about the importance.
Zhenshi frowned slightly and suddenly said: "It shouldn't be like this."
Ma Yuan and Shen Tuhong were both startled.
Zhen Shi continued leisurely: "Fellow Taoist Shentu does not avoid hardships. How could Zhen Shi be reluctant to part with this mere foreign object? It's just that whether it is Taoist friend Ma, Taoist friend Shentu or Zongzheng, they are all heroes of the moment. We should not do it for this."
The gains and losses in this period of time make you underestimate this body."
Shen Tuhong whispered: "This battle may be the key..."
These people have already made a calculation in their minds. If the Holy Sect's last four formations all use Shinto monks as their trump cards, then the Hidden Sect's chance of winning is very slim.
Even if they are looking to clear the blame and Qin Menglin's prestige, I believe that the two of them can win twice. Among the first four formations, the overall strength of the Yin Sect is at a disadvantage. Only by winning this battle can there be any hope of victory;
Even to say it is pessimistic, there is only a glimmer of hope to maintain a draw.
Because of this, I have to persevere.
Zhenshi suddenly stopped talking and said, "What do you think about the merits of the four of us?"
Shen Tuhong didn't know why he mentioned this matter. He said frankly: "Fellow Taoist Ma stands out and is slightly better than us. As for Taoist friend Hong, Taoist Zhenshi and other three, they are roughly in the same league, and it is difficult to distinguish them."
Zhenshi nodded repeatedly and said meaningfully: "Exactly. What Fellow Taoist Shentu said is true. But let Zhenshi boast a bit. The battle situation has just begun in all directions, but Zhenshi is more calm here. Is that so?"
Ma Yuan, Shen Tuhong and others looked at each other thoughtfully.
After the four of them entered the "First Transformation" state together, Ma Yuan was naturally still the one with the strongest merit and the most powerful force.
It was his fault that he unexpectedly injured two Shinto monks at the beginning.
However, after the opponent stabilized his position, Ma Yuan was faced with many constraints when he took action, and he even couldn't help but feel that he was unable to make a move.
However, Shen Tuhong and Zong Zhengsi were in danger one after another and eventually met with misfortune.
As for the Admonition Stone, although it failed to injure the enemy and achieve great success, it was able to advance and retreat freely and with ease, even better than Ma Yuan.
The proverb stone pointed out this matter, naturally not to boast. Ma Yuan and others all thought about the mystery.
The brilliance in Zhenshi's bright eyes flashed, and his words were very firm: "These Shinto monks who have suddenly risen to two realms are indeed very powerful in combat, but they are not invulnerable. However, to defeat them, you have to go the right way.
The battle between the two parties is not simply a competition for the depth of Taoism; nor is it a bet on which one is more powerful. Using the effect of the 'Returning to God's Second Transformer' to fight against them is actually a short attack. If the Zhenshi Gongxing goes further, then use this
The conversion of the 'Returning to God Second Converter' to a primary use may not necessarily mean that there is no chance of winning."
"With the ingenious arrangements of fellow Taoist Xun, the two teams of humane monks can at least win one victory. Those three fellow Taoists, Zhen Shi believes that they will win. So in this round, our side is actually in an invincible position."
Ma Yuan fell into thinking.
His previous pessimistic attitude was not without reason.
In daily martial arts competitions, he and Gui Wujiu fought, but once the demon clan's true power was activated, he was only slightly inferior. Now that he has made further progress with the help of treasures, he thinks he is no longer under Gui Wujiu. He said that he is convinced by Gui Wujiu.
, Qin Menglin's ability to win in both formations was a polite statement based on his past reputation. In fact, Ma Yuan had no confidence in his heart.
As for Wei Qingqi, the two sides had competed before, and it was almost impossible to tell the difference. Now that he had many strong reinforcements around him, it was still difficult. Ma Yuan was determined not to believe that Wei Qingqi could win this time.
Now Zhenshi's words are completely new.
Ma Yuan muttered: "That Fellow Daoist Wei..."
Zhenshi suddenly smiled: "She will definitely win."
Zong Zhengsi was dumbfounded. Whether it was Zhen Shi or himself, they only had a one-time relationship with Wei Qingqi.
But now looking at Zhen Shi's appearance and demeanor, it seems that he is not talking about someone else, but a close friend whom he has already understood. In other words... the Wei Qingqi in Zhen Shi's eyes is the shadow of his own further development.
Zhenshi added: "On the road, there must be courage and timidity. If you rely on your reputation for bravery and make sudden mistakes because of a sudden gain or loss, how can you be able to bear the weight of a clan?"
Ma Yuan thought about it for a long time and finally said with relief: "What Taoist friend Zhenshi said makes sense. We should retreat."
