Cheng Ling pondered for a while, became more and more sure of his judgment, and replied: "It's not control. I think it looks like enslavement."
"Slavery!" The Fox Queen's expression suddenly changed. Slavery is much more terrifying than simple restraint and control. It is like the law of heaven imprinted on the soul of a monk, enslaving it and causing the person to have the idea that he is the slave of the other party from his soul. Everything must be based on the consciousness of the master. , the owner can do anything to protect it.
And this kind of enslavement is difficult to resolve. The only way is to kill the master, but even so, the remaining consciousness will not dissipate and will only stay in the soul of the enslaved monk forever. If the other party is not a person, but a Ethnicity is even worse, because the enslaved monks will think that they belong to that ethnic group.
Moreover, with Huixuan's cultivation level, one can imagine what level he would reach if he could enslave his monks.
The Fox Queen was completely confused. She glanced at Cheng Ling expectantly and asked, "Grandmaster Cheng, do you have a way to break the enslavement?"
Cheng Ling sighed: "There are ways, but unfortunately it can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause."
The Fox Queen's eyes lit up and she asked: "What method? As long as I can do it, I will do my best."
"First of all, we have to find the root cause. Who enslaved Huixuan and killed him. Then we need to find the rule in his soul and seal it with a ban. Unless the level of the formation is much better than mine, we can't break it. It's a pity that this is the case. As a result, the soul may also be damaged, and it is still unknown whether his past memories can be restored, and since then, his cultivation has stopped here."
The soul has been sealed, the understanding of heaven has stopped, and it is difficult to make progress in cultivation. The Fox Queen has been prepared for this, but the loss of memory makes it difficult for her to accept.
Looking at Hui Xuan who was fighting against Kong Ji and the others, a trace of warmth flashed in his eyes, as if everything from a thousand years ago was before his eyes. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Master Cheng, I'll trouble you."
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly and consoled him: "Don't worry, we can only do anything if we temporarily control Hui Xuan. He has been completely enslaved now and will not listen to anyone else's words."
This has been made very clear. Even though you and Huixuan are skin-to-skin, and even gave birth to Huyue, now he doesn't recognize anyone except his master. He is dragged by Kongji and the others first, and then finds an opportunity to control him.
The Queen Fox glanced at the sword wound on her chest, sighed secretly, and could only stand aside and watch intently.
The four of them were fighting fiercely, and the three of Kong Ji were using their killing moves one after another, but Hui Xuan was not too willing to give in. After the demon-subduing sword technique, he added the thunderbolt iron hand, left palm and right sword, without losing the slightest bit of disadvantage, and even made people feel Have enough energy to swim.
Emperor Shitian glanced at the few Buddhist monks lying on the ground, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and said: "This man is no longer the Hui Xuan of the past. Everyone, go up to him and kill him."
After the words fell, the Heavenly King, the Dragon King, and the Garuda King took action at the same time. The other Buddhist monks were stunned for a moment, remembering the sword energy that burst out before. If they don't kill him now, how long will it take?
Suddenly, more than ten monks joined the encirclement and suppression.
Hui Xuan's two fists were unable to defeat the four hands, and he was immediately at a disadvantage. His left side was overwhelmed and his right side was overwhelmed. He barely survived, and within a moment he retreated to the palace gate.
Seeing the danger, the Queen Fox hurriedly shouted: "If I keep someone alive, if I kill him, don't blame me for being merciless."
But no one cared about her, and her men never relaxed. The Fox Queen secretly resented her, and turned her hands into claws, preparing to help.
Suddenly, an extreme coldness filled the air from the inner hall, and then, a sharp cry of "Bah~!" sounded in the hall, as if it shot straight into the sky and penetrated the thirty-six virtual worlds.
Everyone was startled and turned their attention to the palace behind. They saw a snow-white shadow rising slowly above the palace. The shadow was several hundred feet long. It looked like a phoenix carved from ice and snow, exuding the ultimate light. The coldness.
It rose slowly, flew in the air several times with the cry, and then crashed into Huixuan's body.
Huixuan's body trembled, and his eyes immediately turned blood red, and the aura around his body rose crazily, as if he had broken through the fourth decline of heaven and man, and reached the fifth decline of heaven and man. The next moment, he suddenly rose up, his long sword surged several times, and he slashed down with a single blow from top to bottom.
The monks were horrified, and they all used their strongest attacks and defenses to resist. However, the sword was too fierce and heavy, and they were almost unable to resist. More than ten monks died instantly, and Kong Ji, Huiyuan, Tianwang, and Dragon King were able to dodge by a hair's breadth. Stay out of the way. Read a book
However, Huineng and King Garuda suffered heavy losses. Huineng spat out blood and was depressed. He was obviously seriously injured and lost at least 50% of his combat power. King Garuda was even worse. Faced with Huixuan's strongest sword, he was forced to He transformed into the body of a Garuda, but his arms and one flesh wing were completely severed. To restore it to the original state, the loss would be even greater.
But the power of Huixuan's sword did not stop. The long sword fell, and the sword tip was inserted into the hard ground. With the sword tip as the center, it spread in a circle like a shock wave. The ground shook violently up and down, and the surrounding ground shook violently. It collapsed and shattered like a spider web. Many monks were unable to resist and were crushed into powder by the sharp sword energy.
"Quack...boom...!"
Accompanied by several loud noises, the door of the palace behind Huixuan opened automatically under the strong impact...
Everyone looked up and saw that the door was completely dark, and they couldn't see anything at all. An extreme coldness spread from the open door, and the ground that had returned to its original state was frozen again in the blink of an eye.
They tried to probe into their spiritual consciousness, but before entering the gate, the condensed spiritual consciousness bundle was frozen. They were so frightened that they stopped quickly, for fear of being backlashed.
Cheng Ling's pupils shrank and he said decisively: "The master is inside the palace."
The Queen Fox was startled and hurriedly begged: "Master Cheng, please help me and kill that master."
Cheng Ling shook his head and said: "It's not that simple. As you can see, Hui Xuan has completely lost his consciousness. If you want to enter the hall, you must pass him first, unless..."
"Unless what?"
Cheng Ling glanced meaningfully at Di Shitian and others and said, "Unless someone holds Hui Xuan back, we can take the opportunity to enter the hall and kill the people inside."
The two of them didn't speak loudly, but who among them was not better than the Immortal Emperor. Not to mention the sound of their words, even if flies laid eggs or mosquitoes farted, they couldn't escape their ears.
The Queen Fox turned her head and swept away, grabbing Kong Ji and saying: "Kong Ji, Hui Xuan's affairs are all caused by you. If we can help you today, the grudge between me and Zending Mountain will be wiped out from now on."
Unexpectedly, Kongji did not refuse, but declared the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, the demon emperor's words are very true, the Zen Mountain has no shirking responsibility, Huiyuan, Huineng, you and our sect will entangle Huixuan, Emperor Shitian Your Excellency, Lingxuzi Buddha, please help us."
Lingxuzi had a good impression of Cheng Ling. The Fox Queen came with him, presumably in the same group, and immediately agreed.
Emperor Shitian pondered for a while, then Kongji spoke. He wanted to give him some face no matter what, but he wanted to enter the palace to have a look, so he immediately said: "The king of heaven, the dragon king and the king of Garuda will stay, and I will enter the palace personally to explore. "
Cheng Ling nodded silently. The cultivation level of Queen Fox, Kong Ji, and Ling Xuzi was not inferior to Hui Xuan. In addition, the three kings of Suiye Buddha Kingdom, Hui Yuan and Huineng were enough to hold Hui Xuan back. Moreover, with Queen Fox around, they would definitely be able to keep him. Huixuan life.
As for the remaining people, they naturally entered the palace together. Cheng Ling was not polite and walked straight to the gate with Xie Feng, Qing Ya, Qing Yi, and Hu Yue. Emperor Shitian quickly caught up, and the remaining monks also followed.
When Kankan walked to the gate, the monks felt a coldness that reached deep into their souls. It was not a real cold, but a feeling of approaching extreme danger.
Emperor Shitian snorted coldly, dispelling the coldness, stepped forward, and entered the palace.
Cheng Ling smiled slightly, Emperor Shitian was not willing to lead alone, but it was better to have someone to explore the way, than to run blindly and blindly. He stood for a moment and saw that there was no movement inside, then he said "let's go" and entered the palace.
Xie Feng and the other monks quickly followed in.
As if passing through a dark area, the palace was filled with light, but everyone's eyes were looking at a huge pattern directly in front of them. It was a painting that took up almost an entire wall.
The painting shows a phoenix with its wings spread like ice crystals, and the extreme coldness comes from the painting.
"This is... an ice phoenix!" Xie Feng said in surprise.
"Brother Xie Feng, do you know this portrait?"
"Yes, the ice phoenix is a type of phoenix race, which is extremely rare. According to legend, the phoenix is one of the four great spiritual beasts, good at fire, but there are also very few good at ice. As the first sequence of life forms, the phoenix is easy to identify, as long as Just look at his tail feathers.”
"Phoenix tail feathers are very exquisite. They are divided into main tail feathers, secondary tail feathers and floating feathers. Some of them have 3 feathers, some have 5 feathers, and up to 9 feathers. Look at the ice phoenix in this painting. Its tail feathers are as many as 9 roots, indicating that the blood concentration is extremely high, comparable to that of the first-generation Phoenix."
Cheng Ling was shocked and asked: "You mean the ice phoenix in this painting is the first one on earth. This is too exaggerated."
Xie Feng smiled and said: "That's not the case. There were only two phoenixes that created the world, namely Phoenix Ancestor and Phoenix Ancestor. The number of tail feathers can only represent the concentration of blood it received. This cannot be confused with each other. There are phoenix mirrors at the end of the phoenix's tail feathers, that is, It’s what later generations call Phoenix Eyes, and the number of Phoenix Eyes means the concentration of blood vessels it activates.”
Cheng Ling looked carefully and saw that although the ice phoenix in the painting had nine phoenix tail eyes, only five of them were bright in color, and the remaining four were slightly dull.
He then asked: "Looking at its tail feathers, it seems that only 50% of its bloodline has been activated."
Xie Feng nodded and said: "Yes, but don't underestimate the 50%. The phoenix with nine feathers bloodline is so powerful, almost as powerful as the ancestor of the phoenix. Therefore, even if it only activates 50%, it is enough to dominate the fairy world. "
Hu Yue listened with gusto. The impression of Xie Feng was that he was taciturn. She didn't expect that he even knew these ancient secrets. She glanced at the picture with some regret and said, "It's a pity that this is just a portrait, otherwise I really want to see the real phoenix."
Di Shitian snorted coldly and said: "You half-demon still has some knowledge, and the little fox, if we really see the phoenix, we are afraid that no one will be able to leave alive."
Hu Yue stuck out her tongue playfully and stopped talking.
Only Cheng Ling stood motionless in front of Bingfeng's portrait, but his expression became heavier and heavier, as if something bad was about to happen.
Qing Ya was attentive and keenly sensed something strange about Cheng Ling, and asked softly: "Brother Cheng, have you discovered anything?"
Cheng Ling said solemnly: "I always feel that something is wrong. This portrait seems to be growing on the wall, lifelike."
