Demon Lord Qingyun spoke calmly, but Wu Changqing's expression changed uncertainly.
The Queen Mother of the West was the lord of the Immortal Court. When she suppressed the entire Antarctic Immortal Continent, the Eight Great Asia Saints were just her slaves. This kind of awe and fear coming from the depths of her bloodline made Wu Changqing hesitate.
Although he knew that Queen Mother Xi had been dead for many years, he still did not dare to act rashly.
After being in a stalemate like this for a moment, Wu Changqing suddenly took a deep breath and slowly took the first step towards the jade coffin not far away.
Obviously, the desire for freedom and the yearning for the path to immortality suppressed the fear deep in his heart.
As long as the bloodline restriction is not broken, he will never be able to leave the Black Mountain Territory, nor will he be able to break through and become a sub-sage. The end of this road to immortality can be seen at a glance!
"Don't blame me for being treasonous. If you want to blame me, you can only blame those people who were too stupid back then. They were willing to become tombkeepers themselves and trapped all future generations here!"
The corners of Wu Changqing's eyes twitched sharply, but there was a firm look in his eyes.
After a while, he came to the jade coffin.
Looking down, I saw the female corpse lying in the coffin. Although her eyes were closed, she still had a fierce aura that made people afraid to look directly at her.
Wu Changqing took a deep breath and did not dare to look at Queen Mother Xi's face, instead focusing on her abdomen.
"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, our witch tribe was also your subordinate back then. We worked hard even without merit. For the sake of guarding your tomb for so many years, please give me a ray of holy energy and let me leave this place.
"
Praying silently in his heart, Wu Changqing stretched out his right hand, poured spiritual power into his fingertips, and then pointed forward, slowly approaching the Queen Mother of the West's abdomen.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
A black energy suddenly emerged from the jade coffin of the Queen Mother of the West. This black energy was like a poisonous snake, wrapping around Wu Changqing's fingertips, and then penetrated into his body and spread towards his heart.
"ah!"
Wu Changqing was caught off guard, let out a sharp scream, and took a dozen steps back.
His face was as pale as paper, and he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood.
"Demon Lord Qingyun, you!"
"Hahaha!"
Demon Lord Qingyun laughed loudly, said nothing, and leaped high into the sky, looking like a wild goose flying in the sky.
He slapped Wu Changqing and Kuzhu with two palms.
I saw that the surrounding space was distorted and turned into a cage, locking the bodies of the two people in place. Immediately afterwards, the power of the four laws of metal, fire, earth, and wood appeared at the same time, evolving more than a dozen magical powers to attack the two people.
people!
By this time, Kuzhu also knew that he had been deceived.
He shouted angrily and wanted to pull back, but the space around him was locked by Demon Lord Qingyun using the laws of space, and his body could not move at all.
At the critical moment, Kuzhu suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a glazed pagoda. Then he bit the tip of his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of blood on the pagoda.
The pagoda instantly enlarged, emitting rays of rays of light, turning in place, absorbing the power of the four laws of Demon Lord Qingyun, and at the same time breaking the space blockade!
Just hearing a muffled sound of "Bang!", ripples appeared in the surrounding space, and there was a gap in the power of confinement.
Wu Changqing and Kuzhu both gained their freedom and hurriedly retreated, putting some distance between themselves and Demon Lord Qingyun.
"Demon Soul Tower?"
Demon Lord Qingyun missed the target and did not pursue the victory again. Instead, he stood on the spot with his hands behind his back, looking at the glazed pagoda suspended in mid-air with great interest.
"It's interesting Kuzhu, Kuzhu. It seems that you are also on guard. You have such a magic weapon but never revealed it. You asked me to find the 'Ten Thousand Demon Banners' to restrain the Soul Locking Stone. I have to say that you are smarter than I thought.
!”
"Hmph, how can we not be careful when seeking skin from a tiger? Although I knew you were greedy, I never thought you would actually kill a donkey!" Kuzhu said angrily.
"He didn't even think about letting us leave here!"
Wu Changqing took a deep breath and used his magic power to suppress the injuries in his body. At the same time, he waved his sleeves and sacrificed the "Tian Wu Bell".
"Now you know why he was uncharacteristically and rushed into the tomb first, right? He had tampered with it as early as the moment he opened the jade coffin. It's ridiculous that as a descendant of the Immortal Court, I have a fear of the Queen Mother of the West in my bones. I was killed by her
I was so shocked by the corpse that I didn’t find anything fishy in the jade coffin!”
After hearing what Wu Changqing said, Kuzhu became even more furious.
"Okay, Demon Lord Qingyun, have you been plotting against us since you entered this tomb? It seems that you have no intention of letting us go at all. The method of collecting the 'Spirit Locking Stone' you just mentioned is also fake, right?"
"hehe."
Demon Lord Qingyun smiled slightly, his murderous intent undisguised.
By this time, it was already a fight, both sides were at loggerheads, and there was no need to be hypocritical and polite anymore.
"You two don't care about life and death, but you dare to bargain with me? That's all. I'll give you a ride. It's an honor for you to be buried in the tomb of the former Lord of the Immortal Court!"
Before he finished speaking, Demon Lord Qingyun took action again.
A stream of pure Gengjin energy evolved into thirty-six fairy swords, forming a circular sword array, surrounding Wu Changqing and Kuzhu in the middle.
At the same time, a small mountain peak appeared above the head. It was only the size of a water tank, but it gathered the power of the strong back soil, and the sense of oppression was no less than that of the tens of thousands of mountains outside!
"Give me the town!"
Demon Lord Qingyun pointed his hand, and the small mountain peak fell from the sky. The terrifying weight crushed the space and made the bodies of Wu Changqing and Kuzhu stoop.
"The power of this guy's laws is ten times greater than ours, we can't let him cast spells calmly!"
Kuzhu shouted loudly, withstood the huge pressure, turned around on the spot, and transformed into a seven-foot-long emerald green bamboo.
He was trained as a demon by a thousand-year-old green bamboo. He has a magical power called "Bamboo Escape", which allows him to travel through the void in short distances without leaving a trace. He often uses this to escape from various spells, and he has always tried and failed.
Sure enough, after the prototype appeared, the extremely heavy power of the earth could not suppress him, and only a "whoosh!" was heard to cut through the void, and no trace of him could be found in a short period of time.
Although Demon Lord Qingyun appears to be arrogant, at heart he is an extremely cautious person.
Seeing Ku Zhu disappear, his first reaction was not that the other party wanted to escape, but that he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack him! So his pupils shrank, his body quickly retreated, and his hands continued to make seals.
A stream of water appeared out of thin air, forming a water ring and trapping him in the middle.
This is the technique of "Water Mirror". As long as someone comes close, they will be affected by the law of water, and their body shape will appear.
Sure enough, a sharp object broke through the air and was illuminated by the "water mirror". It was the seven-foot-long green bamboo, which shot straight to the face of Demon Lord Qingyun like lightning.
Although Demon Lord Qingyun had many means, he did not dare to confront this thing when he saw it approaching him. He turned around and his body rippled like water waves before disappearing without a trace in an instant.
boom!
A muffled sound was heard, but it was the green bamboo pole that shattered the remaining image of Demon Lord Qingyun, and the surrounding space was pierced.
"What a bamboo demon, you really can't underestimate him!"
Demon Lord Qingyun appeared a hundred feet away, looking at the space that had just been shattered, and sighed in his heart.
This thousand-year-old bamboo is smelly and hard. It is comparable to a top-notch magic weapon. If you get close to him, you will be beaten severely!
"Qingyun, I want you to die!"
Kuzhu is impatient and misses a single blow before attacking again.
He knew that Demon Lord Qingyun possesses the power of many kinds of laws. In a normal fight, the combined power of the two might not be his opponent. He must fight fast and disrupt the person's spell-casting rhythm in order to have any chance of defeating this person.
Then, the seven-foot green bamboo shot through the air again, shooting like lightning, this time it hit the Qingyun Demon Lord's lower abdomen.
"Hmph! Will I still be approached by you?"
Qingyun Demon Lord sneered, waved his sleeves, and hundreds of ivy vines flew out from the sleeves, entangled the green bamboos that were speeding towards him, and he retreated.
But just as he exited Baizhang, he heard a crisp ringing sound behind him.
My body suddenly became a little stiff, and my limbs began to become numb and inoperable.
"Wu Changqing, you!"
Demon Lord Qingyun seemed to have thought of something, his face changed drastically, his body stood still, and his head turned around with some difficulty, looking at Wu Changqing behind him.
I saw the leader of the Wu Clan shaking the golden bell in his hand and chanting incantations.
After a while, he seemed to have finished casting the spell, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Demon Lord Qingyun, you didn't expect that, did you? You thought you had plotted against me, but in fact I took action earlier than you."
"impossible!"
Demon Lord Qingyun's eyes were full of disbelief, and he shouted loudly: "I know very well the secret techniques of your witch clan. You must obtain my blood essence in advance before you can use them. I have always been cautious when dealing with you these years.
, how did you do it without letting you get anything from me that can be used to perform magic?"
"hehe."
Wu Changqing laughed and said calmly: "Demon Lord Qingyun, I don't know why you know so much about our eight major divine clans, especially the Wu clan, but I have seen your behavior over the years, and I have to guard against this!
The secret technique is not an ancient technique of the witch clan, but was created by me. Have you forgotten how you became the 'Witch God' that day?"
"It's that time!"
Demon Lord Qingyun suddenly woke up.
He and Wu Changqing teamed up to play this big game, counting the eight major divine clans and even the monks of the Wu clan themselves. The first step was to gain the unconditional trust of everyone in the Wu clan.
Therefore, Wu Changqing made some tricks in the cave of the ancestral hall, allowing the spirit of Demon Lord Qingyun to possess the statue of the "Witch God". He was then successfully "resurrected" in the Wu clan ceremony and became the leader of all clansmen.
Open the prophecy and lead everyone out of the Black Mountain Territory.
All of this seemed to be the plan of the two, but what Demon Lord Qingyun didn't expect was that Wu Changqing had tampered with that statue!
The moment his soul possessed the statue, a trace of his soul had been obtained by the other party, and this trace of soul became Wu Changqing's means to counter him. At this time, he launched
"The secret technique I created does not require blood essence, but it must have a trace of the imprint of the soul. Did you not expect it?"
Wu Changqing's face was cold and he looked at Demon Lord Qingyun as if he were looking at a dead person.
Controlled by his secret technique, he could not control his body at all and could only be manipulated by others.
"You can be considered a hero of the generation. You don't have to die at the hands of others, so you should kill yourself."
As Wu Changqing spoke, he gently shook the "Tian Wu Bell" in his hand, and Demon Lord Qingyun raised his right hand uncontrollably. The huge spiritual power condensed in his palm and was aimed at the center of his eyebrows.
This is obviously a suicide attempt!
The secret technique of the Wu clan is weird. Once certain conditions are met, the opponent's body can be controlled. It was because of this that Tang Qianzhi was controlled and led tens of thousands of Nanxuan monks to their end.
Now, the same thing is about to happen to Demon Lord Qingyun.
His palm moved closer to his eyebrows, which was now less than three inches.
Demon Lord Qingyun's face turned red, and he suddenly shouted loudly, and his clothes burst apart!
"Just the two of you, do you want me to commit suicide?"
Tyrannical power swept out of his body, and ten rays of light, representing the power of the ten laws, surrounded Demon Lord Qingyun.
At the same time, his body shape changed rapidly and turned into a huge ferocious beast!
This ferocious beast has the body of a goat and a human face. It has two faint blue eyes on its long neck, and a large bloody mouth on its abdomen. Its teeth are as sharp as blades. When it opens its mouth, it makes a sound like a baby crying.
Eee!
Weird sounds echoed back and forth in the tomb chamber, echoing endlessly.
This was not the first time that the two of them saw his Taotie true form. They had discovered it before in Wusheng Valley, but they did not expect it to be so powerful, so they were caught off guard.
At this moment, both Wu Changqing and Ku Zhu were in a brief trance.
Demon Lord Qingyun took this opportunity to regain part of his freedom and condensed the power of the ten laws into a ten-color circle, trapping the other two people in it.
"Quick! Ring the Heavenly Witch Bell!"
Kuzhu's loud shout made Wu Changqing wake up instantly and hurriedly activated the Tianwu Bell to suppress the actions of Demon Lord Qingyun.
As for Kuzhu himself, he also appeared behind Demon Lord Qingyun, sacrificed the "Demon Soul Tower" again, and suppressed his body severely.
The two of them worked together to cast a spell, which was very powerful, but at this time, Demon Lord Qingyun had already revealed his true body, Taotie. With the blessing of the power of the ten laws, his physical body was indestructible and could not be broken in a short time.
There was a stalemate in the tomb.
Wu Changqing and Kuzhu teamed up to suppress Demon Lord Qingyun. On the surface, they had the upper hand, but they were unable to kill their opponents. On the contrary, Demon Lord Qingyun gradually stabilized his position and used the power of the law to condense the ten-color circle, slowly killing the two of them.
of mana.
What was originally a treacherous and dangerous battle of tactics has evolved into a competition of endurance.
Liang Yan and Wu Xin were outside the tomb the whole time and saw everything that happened just now.
"I really didn't expect that these three people must have eight hundred tricks in total, right?" Wu Xin said secretly.
"You can't say that, Kuzhu is quite honest." Liang Yan commented very pertinently.
I wanted to laugh unintentionally, but I forced myself to hold it back.
"Indeed, until the end, he was still thinking about whether Demon Lord Qingyun really had a way to collect the 'Spirit Locking Stone'."
"It's understandable. Thieves don't take advantage of others." Liang Yan said calmly.
"Now this battle has reached a stalemate, should we take action?" Wu Xin asked via voice transmission.
Liang Yan did not answer immediately. He kept looking around the tomb.
