The Xuanling Gym became deserted, the bloodstains were washed away, and the fallen trees were restored to their original state. Xue Tong sat quietly in the east courtyard, with Shi Shuangyi's identity jade plaque beside his knees.
"Dudu"
Jade Pai sent a message, and the Mantra disciples asked eagerly how the battle was going and where they were.
"coming!"
The shuttle boat of the Mantra Gate is parked in the most empty square in front of the screen wall.
With a flash of golden light, the innate monk next to Liang Yin fell to the sky with his protective shield shattered into mist, a bloody hole in his chest.
The diamond arrow's remaining power was not exhausted and it sank into the ground.
Sixty feet away, Xue Tong's second arrow had already been fired. Ding Muda was prepared and jumped with all his strength. The golden arrow passed through his back.
Liang Yin, the deputy leader of Zhenyan Sect, led ten reinforcements, and his strength was comparable to that of Shi Shuangyi and his party.
Liang Yin's figure swept ten feet and rushed towards the high ground to the east.
Xue Tong threw back the Bone Puppet Dragon Tooth Bow, Jueying Step flew into the air, and pounced on Liang Yin.
The bracelet turned sharply in mid-air, and the hollow claws and silver spears came out.
Liang Yin felt something bad, and a strong wave of magic power came. Together with the dark blue iron sword, Xue Tong had used three magic weapons.
Liang Yin stopped suddenly and soared into the sky. He stabbed the soul-seeking sword in his hand quickly, and a thick green light hit the dark shadow of the claws in the sky.
The soul-seeking sword shook wildly and bent into the shape of a half-moon. Liang Yin slapped it with his palm, and the shadow of the claws dispersed with a roar.
Liang Yin's face turned purple, and he gritted his teeth and crushed a snake skin talisman.
Xue Tong's silver spear pierced the air and flew back to the storage bracelet together with his empty claws.
A black mist appeared out of thin air in front of him, and a strange roar erupted.
A giant python with three heads swam out, and in the blink of an eye it was approaching, biting all three in unison.
A terrifying aura followed, and the three-headed evil python had reached the master level.
Xue Tongxuan's iron sword's spiritual pattern lit up, blasting out a cloud of starry swords.
Xuan Yun hit the heads of three evil pythons which were round and exploded. Xue Tong held the Xuan Lin Ju tightly and used Teng Teng's strength to take several steps back.
The three-headed python shrank its head and breathed out to attack.
Three black smoke pillars were straight like iron rods. Liang Yin invoked the Soul Soul Sword Technique, and a strange circular pattern appeared on Xue Tong's head. The sword energy was sinister and suddenly fell down.
A ray of rays of light flew out of Xue Tong's cuffs, and the seven-colored light spread out. The hundreds of sword energy from the soul-seeking diagram all hit the magic weapon Five Dragon Shield.
Xue Tong twisted the iron jug hard, and Ju Yun rolled in the three air pillars, and the black fragments flew like snowflakes, neutralizing the three-headed python's second move.
…
The evil spirit summoning talisman is the treasure of the Zhenyan Sect. Liang Yin, as the deputy sect leader, cannot draw it. His three-headed python talisman was obtained from his mentor many years ago.
The summoning talisman is no ordinary magic talisman!
The fire dragon spell talisman corresponds to the fire dragon spell. The shape of the fire dragon is depicted by the mana sutra spell. There will be slight differences in the fire dragon drawn by the caster.
The summoning talisman corresponds to the summoning spell, and the gods and demons summoned are the shadows of real existences, all the same, without any difference.
For example, the Azure Dragon Summoning Technique summons the shadow of the ancient true spirit Azure Dragon, and it is definitely not the caster's spell that depicts the Azure Dragon.
The shadow of the real thing is closer to the real body and naturally more powerful than the depicted thing.
As for whether the true form of the gods and demons can be summoned, that is another matter.
…
The summoning time is limited, Xue Tong only needs to survive three moves.
The three-headed python swung its tail and launched its final attack.
The python had just finished breathing, and the python's tail with shining scales was already in front of him. Xue Tongkun handed over his left hand, and lightning struck out of Tianbei's fist, which was as big as a meter.
Bang!
The three-headed python turned into black smoke, and Xue Tong flew backwards several feet. The five-dragon shield retracted to the size of his palm and was put into his sleeve pocket.
Liang Yin broke into cold sweat and his pupils shrank sharply.
In his memory, of all the opponents that the True Word Sect has encountered over the past hundred years, no one has ever been able to withstand the evil python's three moves.
"Your three-headed python is not high enough..." Xue Tong said mid-sentence, then he dashed forward, and the dark cloud rolled towards Liang Yin.
As he spoke, he caught a glimpse that Fan Ruhua's battle situation was not easy.
Liang Yin needs to be killed quickly.
Liang Yin was born with great achievements, leading one warrior in the late stage and one in the early stage, and eight acquired warriors including Ding Mu.
The unlucky early stage monk was shot through by Xue Tong's sword. In the later stage, the warriors fought one against three and drew with Fan Ruhua, Bone Puppet, and Bai Hu.
The Soul Ape, the Eagle Vulture, and the Wolf Spider had the upper hand and quickly killed the three of them. Xiao Yuer, Wen Guangmao, and Hou Tian were chasing after the fleeing Zhenyan Sect.
Liang Yin reluctantly took another move, and was carried away by Xue Tong, flying to Hades.
…
"Are you okay?" Xue Tong looked at the wound on Fan Ruhua's arm and asked.
"The flesh wound is not a problem, thanks to the help of Bone Puppet and White Tiger." Fan Ruhua said as she applied the wound ointment.
"It's rare to get a draw. This person's martial arts level is two levels higher than yours. If he hadn't been afraid of the bone puppet's poison, the situation might have been much more dangerous." Xue Tong said.
"It's a pity that Ding Muda ran away!" Wen Guangmao said.
"Let him go, it's fine if the True Word Sect knows the details."
Xue Tong hid the ultimate move of the Sword Formation and was not worried about the Zhenyan Sect attacking again.
"The soul-seeking sword returns to Yu'er, and the distribution of profits is the same as before. It's just Guangmao's magic weapon. I don't know how long it will take." Xue Tong said.
"Guang Mao's magic power is low, and he is already a good match for using the top-grade Yama Sword. This time he can get millions of wealth, which is beyond his wildest dreams. If there is another magic weapon, please keep it for yourself, Taoist Priest." Wen Guangmao said hurriedly.
"Yu'er, you should use the soul-seeking sword less. You should practice your sword skills first, upgrade your innate skills and then change them. Liang Yin's ultimate move just now is pretty good."
"Well, the soul-seeking sword skill is much better than what I am currently using."
Xue Tong changed the topic, "The Zhenyan Sect is going to take revenge. We will go to Danzhao Mountain to ambush and observe, waiting for an opportunity to dispatch."
…
Danzhao Peak, with its red light shining under the setting sun, is magnificent and beautiful.
At the simple camp on the top of the mountain, Xue Tong observed the messy footprints that remained and said: "It seems that the Zhenyan Sect used Danzhao Peak as a springboard and went to Xuanling Mountain after resting."
"This place is 3,500 miles away from Yuqing Peak. People from the Zhenyan Sect may arrive as soon as tonight."
Xue Tong pointed to the dense forest several miles away diagonally below, "Go hide in the forest and take turns observing the movements of the camp."
…
Xue Tong crouched in the bushes and opened Liang Yin's storage bracelet.
A thin volume containing the summoning spells for three-headed pythons, ghost dogs, and corpse-eating monsters.
Although the volume is thin, it unfolds a grand picture of the road to immortality.
Summoning spells are used to summon gods and demons.
The process is the same as the Five Elements Magic, except that the Five Elements Magic activates fireballs, lightning strikes, ice pythons... that's all.
Summoning spells can be replaced by talismans.
Just like Xue Tong in the early stage of martial arts, although he has not perfected the rock shield technique, he can use the rock shield talisman to achieve the same effect.
Ignition of the summoning talisman usually requires innate-level mana.
The Mantra Gate records the three simplest summoning spells, and the evil spirits summoned are also the most basic.
The legendary Daluo Immortal can even summon true spirits such as green dragons and phoenixes.
Since it is a spell, it is divided into levels. The summoning takes the form of level nine, and level nine is also called the full level.
Liang Yin's summoning talisman summoned a three-headed python in its primary form.
Appendix, descriptor paper, ink, and required French text.
Fifty blank snakeskin talisman papers in the storage bracelet, the early stage of the vellum paper breath master.
Xue Tong sniffed the talisman ink in the jade bottle, and the blood hit his nose. The talisman book recorded that it needed to be prepared with the blood and bone marrow of nine kinds of innate high-level pythons.
The special talisman for the Nether Dog is similar and is prepared from the blood marrow of nine kinds of demon dogs.
The corpse-eating beasts are even more terrifying, and the talisman comes from the blood and marrow of high-level warriors.
"The summoning of evil spirits is certainly wonderful, but it's a pity that Xue doesn't have time to practice the spell. It would be great if there is a talisman."
Xue Tong sighed and thought about another more important matter.
"Xiao Yu'er has changed her sword skills. Should I also change my Qi training method Three Yuan Jue?"
This thought occurred more than once over the years. It was extremely difficult for Xue Tong to refine his Qi. He took two pills at a time, twice as much as an ordinary person.
"The amount of Qi produced by the Three Yuan Jue is slightly insufficient, and it will definitely not be as good as Luo Qianyan's. It's just that it will take decades to change the technique, and I can't afford to delay it."
A few days passed and the Danzhaofeng camp was empty.
"Is this the case for the True Word Sect?" Xue Tong was puzzled.
…
Yuqingfeng, Mantra Hall.
Qiu Zhan's face was like a pig's liver, and his hands and feet were trembling. Several people around him didn't even dare to breathe.
"Get out!" Qiu Zhan spat out one word, and Ding Muda who was at the bottom of the steps hurriedly retreated from the hall.
"The True Word Sect has lost 30% of its senior ranks. Those who advocate the eradication of the Xuanling Taoist Academy are speaking out!" Qiu Zhan shouted.
"Master Qiu, I still think that we should send more troops to eliminate Xue Tong." Elder Rao Xiaoyan said.
"You people don't want to make progress, spend a lot of time on unimportant things, pretend to be a big sect, and enjoy this pitiful sense of existence every day. Xuanling Taoist Academy should have left it alone, but now you are breaking into He caused a great disaster and killed more than twenty people in the sect."
"Xue Tong has most likely escaped. Elder Rao, why don't you go to various Xuanmen to distribute the letters of the four people who assisted in the investigation, and see how many famous Zhenyan sects you can make and lose their face!" Qiu Zhan angrily reprimanded.
"The sect master calmed down his anger and based on his old opinion, he set fire to Xuanling Mountain first, and then notified the alliance and asked for the arrest of four people." Ji Kuisheng, the leader of the law enforcement hall, said.
"Everyone can think of these, but there is no better way." Qiu Zhan was quite dissatisfied.
"Xue Tong's origin is unknown. He is extremely cunning, but he is good at the small workers who built Taoist temples. He went to Yuping City to arrest people, and then spread the news to lure them to show up," Zhuang Shuo, the master of Jibao Pavilion, said.
"Oh, Pavilion Master Zhuang has a very clever idea. Instead of burning down the Taoist temple, he sends someone to sneak into Yuping and capture the young worker." Qiu Zhan said.
"Sect Master, the True Word Sect has arrested innocent handyman warriors, will it spread out..." Ji Kuisheng reminded.
"What time is it? You are still putting on big airs. It is crucial to capture Xue Tong. It is natural to use some means!"
"Assemble capable personnel to go to Yuping quickly. Even if the few handymen fled after hearing the news, they would release the news a few days later, saying that they escaped during the investigation and were shot dead on the spot."
"Who knows whether these people are dead or alive? After Xue Tong heard this, he might be active in Yuqing Peak, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge."
Qiu Zhan arranged it all.
…
"Let's go back to Xuanling Mountain and take a look!"
At night, Xue Tong and the others returned to the Taoist courtyard. The deserted courtyard was quiet and deserted, and everything was as before.
"The True Word Sect has changed its plot. Even if they don't hunt down the four of me, they should burn down the Taoist temple!" Fan Ruhua said.
"Well, that's about it." Xue Tong nodded.
"How about we go to Yuping to see if it would be inconvenient for us to walk and whether the four of us would be too abrupt," Xiao Yu'er said.
"Disguise yourself and climb over the wall to enter the city." Xue Tong said.
