"The so-called 'Moon Painting Water' turns out to be the water of the Soul River that was polluted by this black monster!"
Before entering the valley, Liang Yan finally saw clearly the source of the "Moon Painting Water", and at the same time he also had doubts about this huge strange insect.
What is the origin of this strange insect? Why can the liquid flowing out of it allow the monsters on the fourth level to gain "immortality"? Although this kind of "immortality" comes at an extremely painful price, those monsters have indeed survived until now.
.
Liang Yan was thinking a lot, and turned around, only to see Wu Xin's face full of surprise, and he was in a daze for a moment.
Thinking of what she had said before, Liang Yan's heart moved and he immediately asked: "What's wrong? Do you know the origin of this insect?"
"This is. This is"
Wuxin looked at the strange insect in the distance, his tone was a little urgent and a little excited at the same time.
After a while, she slowly came back to her senses, glanced at Liang Yan beside her, and said solemnly: "If I read it correctly, this should be the holy insect of our Feather Clan, the Sky-Swallowing Insect!"
Liang Yan also had a look of surprise on his face.
You must know that this is the human continent, and Tianji Pavilion is the Confucian sect in ancient times. Why are the holy insects of the demons hidden here?
"Are you sure you didn't admit your mistake? Why did the holy insect of your Yu clan come to Antarctica?"
“You won’t admit it”
Wuxin said with certainty: "I have seen the description of the sky-swallowing insect in the royal books of the Yu clan. It is very similar to the black monster in front of me. If there is any difference, it is the sky-swallowing insect in the record.
Insects are not that big, and they don't produce any 'moon water'."
After hearing this, Liang Yan thought for a moment and muttered: "'Huiyue Shui' is just a name given by the demon clan. It is normal that there are no relevant records in our ancient books. The point is, does the sky-swallowing insect extend the life of others?"
ability?"
"This." Wuxin hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: "There is no relevant record in the ancient books. Although the Sky-Swallowing Insect is our clan's holy insect, it disappeared many years ago, and the new generation of the Yu clan doesn't even know it.
Even I have only seen a few records about the sky-swallowing insect in ancient books."
After hearing Wu Xin's answer, Liang Yan couldn't help but frown slightly.
The appearance of demonic insects at the source of the Soul River was beyond his expectation. The key was that until now, he had not found a way to leave the Thousand Machines Demonic Tower.
The only place that has not been explored is in the valley.
However, there was such a demonic insect at the entrance of the valley. Facing the legendary holy insect of the Yu clan, Liang Yan did not dare to approach it rashly.
"If you think about it carefully, does this sky-swallowing insect have any weaknesses, or is there any way to bypass this demonic insect and enter the valley directly?" Liang Yan asked Wu Xin beside him.
"This." Wu Xin looked thoughtful, seeming to be recalling the ancient books he had read.
At this moment, Liang Yan suddenly felt a chill behind him.
After breaking through to the realm of transformation, his perception became more acute. Although the coolness was extremely weak, he still noticed it immediately.
"who?!"
Liang Yan shouted low, turned around and smacked his palm in the air, and the mighty spiritual power turned into a ball of golden light and hit the void not far behind him.
boom!
As a muffled sound came, the void cracked, the icy cold air fell like mercury to the ground, and the surrounding temperature also dropped at this moment.
"It's you."
Liang Yan frowned slightly.
In front of him, a young man in white clothes and a white hat walked out of the crack in the void.
This person is the weapon spirit of Ling Tian Dagger!
"We meet again." The weapon spirit in white nodded to him, his eyes very calm.
"You" Liang Yan felt that the other party was a little strange and asked tentatively: "Has your spiritual consciousness been restored?"
"good."
The white-clothed weapon spirit did not deny it and said calmly: "After being sealed for many years, my memory and spiritual consciousness were confused, so I mistook you for the young master. Until the battle with Luo Qing, although his 'Broken Heart Seal'
It drove me crazy, but due to a strange combination of circumstances, I regained my memory, and now I have remembered everything in the past."
After hearing his answer, Liang Yan's eyes showed a hint of vigilance.
"Now that you know that I, the 'young master', am a fake, what are your plans next?"
"Haha, don't think too much, I won't take action against you."
Ling Tiandiao smiled slightly, but there was a bit of bitterness in his smile.
"For many years, I have been immersed in fantasy and kept deceiving myself. Now I finally wake up. Tianji Pavilion has been destroyed. This is a fact that cannot be changed. If you get that thing, you are destined to our Tianji Pavilion.
, I will not be your enemy."
Liang Yan felt a little relieved after hearing that he would not be his enemy.
The strength of Ling Tian Dagger is even higher than that of Luo Qing. If Luo Qing hadn't used the "Broken Heart Seal" to drive it crazy at the critical moment, I'm afraid it would have been defeated by it at that time.
With Liang Yan's current magical power, he is certainly not afraid of the Lingtian Dagger, but if the two of them really had to fight, it would be troublesome for him.
After all, the current situation is very delicate. The guards and sky-devouring insects on the fifth floor are nearby, and the situation is still unclear. Liang Yan does not want to cause trouble.
"Now that your memory has been restored, what are your next steps?" Liang Yan asked tentatively.
"To fulfill my mission."
Ling Tian Dagger sighed softly, looking past Liang Yan and looking at the sky-devouring insect in the distance.
"Mission?" Liang Yan's expression changed, and he vaguely thought of something.
The next moment, I heard the voice of Ling Tian Dagger continue: "The origin of the Soul River is the Patriarch Valley of Tianji Pavilion. Although it is not the burial ground of the ancestors of the past generations, it is the place where their tablets are enshrined. In our hearts
It is an extremely sacred place. But now this sacred place has been invaded and even defiled by a demon insect from the demon clan. This is absolutely intolerable!"
Although Ling Tian Dagger's voice was soft, Liang Yan could hear its determination.
"Your Excellency, you are here today to settle matters?" Liang Yan asked in a deep voice.
"good!"
Ling Tian Dagger said and suddenly laughed: "Actually, I want to thank you for unblocking me. If I sleep for more than ten years, this stupid lion may not be able to hold it anymore. When the demonic insect breaks through the seal, the entire
The Thousand Machine Demonic Tower will become its insect nest! Not only that, if this black water penetrates into the outside world, it will also cause the destruction of all living beings."
After all, Tianji Pavilion is the orthodox Confucian school, and many monks in the sect have the common people in mind. Although Ling Tian Dagger is just a weapon spirit, it has been influenced by spiritual wisdom from the moment it was born, and his behavior is also quite chivalrous.
"How confident are you in dealing with the demonic insects?" Liang Yan asked in a deep voice.
Ling Tian Dagger shook his head and said slowly: "Not even 10%."
"Then you are still coming?" Liang Yan said in surprise.
"There are things you can do, things you can't do, and there are things you have to do!" Ling Tian Dagger glanced at him and said with a serious face: "This demonic insect came from the outside world to steal the spiritual energy in the Patriarch's Valley. If we can't remove it,
If he kills it and then releases it to cause harm to the people, he will really become the eternal sinner of Tianji Pavilion."
Hearing this, Liang Yan and Wu Xin looked at each other, and their expressions became serious.
"Fellow Qi Ling is admirable! But unnecessary sacrifices have no effect. You two guards join forces, and if you add me and Wu Xin, what are the chances of winning?"
"You also take action?"
Ling Tiandiao was a little surprised, looked at Liang Yan again, and said in deep thought: "Your strength is already above mine. If you join the battle with me, the pressure on 'Lion Heart' will be greatly reduced. As for this witch
, since she is a true demon, she must have some special secrets, maybe she can help us. If we calculate like this, we have a 30% chance of winning."
"Only 30%." Liang Yan's face was solemn. In his opinion, this chance of winning was still too low.
Seeing his hesitation, Ling Tiandiao suddenly asked: "Are you planning to leave the Thousand Machine Demon Tower?"
Liang Yan's expression changed and he immediately responded: "Yes, fellow Taoist, do you know where the way out is?"
"Of course I know," Ling Tian Dagger said slowly: "There are only two ways to leave the Thousand Machines Demonic Tower. The first is to crush the disciple's token. Even if the disciples in the previous trials failed halfway, they only need to crush the disciple's token.
Immediately there will be a guiding light to send them out of the tower. The second is to pass all the tests, enter the Patriarch Valley, receive the blessing of the Patriarch's statue there, and then teleport out through the teleportation circle."
"You are not the descendants of Tianji Pavilion and do not have disciple tokens. If you want to leave here, you must defeat the demonic insect and enter the valley to use the teleportation circle inside."
"really!"
After Ling Tiandiao finished speaking, Liang Yan and Wu Xin both sighed softly.
They searched all the way here but found no exit. They had previously speculated that the teleportation circle might be in the valley. Now after listening to Ling Tian Dagger's answer, this guess was finally confirmed.
"It seems that both public and private matters must deal with this demonic insect first."
Liang Yan glanced at the sky-swallowing insect in the distance with a serious expression on his face.
The strange insects we encountered before were already very powerful. Since this sky-devouring insect is the origin of everything, its strength is absolutely extraordinary.
Even though it was sealed by those mysterious golden threads, Liang Yan still wasn't sure.
"Fellow Taoist Qi Ling, I promise you, I will fight with you together!" Although he was not sure, Liang Yan still agreed to take action.
"Good! As expected of the person who has received the inheritance of our Tianji Pavilion!"
The white-clothed weapon spirit showed approval, then turned to look at the demonic insect in the distance, and said slowly: "According to my observation, this demonic insect seems to have a strange power in its body. It is using this power to heal its wounds.
But at the same time, I am imprisoned by this power.”
"If you want to completely kill the demonic insect, you must seal this power, otherwise it will be almost immortal."
"But once this power is sealed, those mysterious golden threads will disappear. Even if the three of us join forces, it will be difficult to defeat it!"
After listening to the analysis by the white-clothed weapon spirit, Liang Yan's face showed surprise.
"There is actually a double-edged sword in the body of this sky-devouring insect?"
"You can say that." Ling Tiandiao nodded.
"Understood."
Liang Yan's face was solemn, he took a step forward and said slowly: "I will try my best to seriously injure this demonic insect later. As for the sealing, I will leave it to my fellow Taoist."
"Don't worry." Ling Tian Dagger also took a step forward and stood side by side with him.
"Wuxin, please don't participate in this battle."
Liang Yan's voice suddenly sounded in Wu Xin's mind.
"But."
Wuxin looked at Liang Yan's back and was about to say something, but was interrupted by him: "I can't predict the strength of the Sky-Swallowing Insect, but I have ways to protect myself. If you come on stage, it will distract me.
"
"Okay, then you must be careful!"
Wu Xin knew that Liang Yan's strength now far exceeded his own, so he did not insist on playing anymore, but gave a concerned warning.
Liang Yan turned his back to Wu Xin and nodded slightly.
He walked side by side with the white-clothed weapon spirit, and at the same time walked towards the sky-devouring insect in the distance. Although he looked very calm on the outside, the killing intent on his body had begun to spread outward.
Facing this terrifying demonic insect, not only did the two of them show no signs of timidity, but they were highly motivated to fight!
"Fellow Taoist, let's do it."
As soon as Liang Yan finished speaking, a purple thunder sword light rushed out from the Taixu Gourd, turned into a thunderbolt in mid-air, and slashed towards the abdomen of the Sky-Swallowing Insect.
Although he didn't know much about the Sky-Swallowing Insect, Liang Yan knew that the terrifying big mouth and the bottomless black hole in its mouth must be where its magical power lies.
When fighting a strong enemy, you can't go head-to-head, you have to avoid reality and avoid reality!
Liang Yan's first sword was a sword of temptation, bypassing the sky-swallowing insect's big mouth and targeting its softest abdomen.
At the same time, the weapon spirit in white also took action.
He floated slowly into the sky, his whole body became crystal clear, and his whole body was like a snow sculpture.
Biting cold air emanated from his body and filled the entire space in an instant. Within a hundred miles, everything except where Liang Yan and Wu Xin were, turned into a world of ice and snow!
The cold air swarmed in and instantly covered the whole body of the Sky-Swallowing Insect, actually freezing the hundred-foot-long demonic insect into an ice cube!
The true demon energy that was originally suppressed in everyone's hearts disappeared without a trace at this moment, and Liang Yan's Purple Thunder Tianyin Sword also took this opportunity to pierce the abdomen of the Sky-Swallowing Insect!
"Did you succeed?"
Liang Yan raised his brows and glanced at Ling Tian Dagger in mid-air, as if he didn't expect to hurt the Sky-Swallowing Insect so easily.
However, the next moment, a harsh magical sound suddenly came from the front.
The demonic sounds were overwhelming and rolling in! Even with Liang Yan's cultivation level, he felt upset and almost breathless.
Before they could react, they heard a huge explosion, the ice sculpture at the entrance of the valley shattered, and the sky-swallowing insect appeared in everyone's sight again!
The demonic insect seemed to be irritated by the two of them. Its huge body kept twisting under the restraints of the golden wire. Its wings flapped furiously on its back. A black light suddenly shot out from its huge mouth and headed straight for Liang Yan's location.
"not good!"
Feeling the terrifying power contained in the black light, Liang Yan's pupils suddenly shrank.
This is definitely not a force that I can contend with now. If I am hit by it, even if I have the essence and blood of the "Immortal Dragon", it will probably take several years to fully recover!
