The ground is shaking more and more violently!

This big luminous tree is surrounded by a bunch of rocks, as big as a house and as small as a lying cow. Each piece is extremely heavy and scattered around this evil tree in disorder. Now all the rocks are following that It started to move with a steady stream of vibrations coming from deep underground, just like a handful of beans sprinkled on the drum surface that was being beaten continuously. The beans naturally beat with the vibration. Now those beans of different sizes This is what happened to the scattered rocks. The ground shook constantly and never stopped. These large and small rocks began to jump violently on the ground and collided with each other. Some of the large rocks were half-buried in the ground and could not jump at all. When he got up, he couldn't bear the force of the shock coming from the ground, and it actually broke into pieces with "kacha kacha".

Standing on the ground, it was already difficult to stabilize his body. Qian Chao used his hands to cast spells. The figures of the five people were slowly suspended by the splendor that enveloped them, so that the five people were not disturbed by the vibrations on the ground. .

In addition to the shock, there was also an extremely deep sound coming from the underground. The humming sound was depressing and chest tight. At first it sounded like the Styx River in the Nine Netherlands was surging, and when it was heard again, it sounded like murderous intent was overflowing. Thousands of troops and horses were approaching fiercely. After listening for a long time, there seemed to be waves of whistling echoing with the buzzing underground, which made people dizzy.

Qian Chao took out five talismans. With a flick, the five talismans emitted a bright yellow light. Then he put one on his chest. After a burst of yellow light, the talismans disappeared. Then He motioned to his four companions to do the same.

Sure enough, after the talisman seemed to melt into his body, the dizzy feeling caused by the long-lasting buzzing sound in the underground was relieved a lot.

After the discomfort disappeared, Tang Ping looked around, looking at the splendor that shrouded the five people's heads, feet, front, back, left, and right, and asked loudly:

"Boy Qian, what kind of formation is this?"

Amidst the buzzing, if her voice was too low, she was worried that Qian Chao wouldn't be able to hear her.

"This is not a formation," Qian Chao said equally loudly, "This is a combination of the science of formation and the study of spiritual veins...the art of guiding spirits!"

"The study of formations, the study of spiritual veins, aren't they still formations?" Qian Chao has done it many times before by setting up formations based on spiritual veins. Those were all formations, why is it different now, Tang Ping Some don't understand.

"It's different," Qian Chao said loudly, "If Pingpeng is tricked into giving birth to an heir in advance, you will know the difference in this spirit-inducing technique."

(As for the art of attracting spirits, the author will describe it in detail later, because Shangguan Hong will use the method to make Pingpeng give birth to a child next. The monsters and beasts in Shouwo Mountain are in chaos, and all the monsters and birds are concentrated in the evil tree. There are random and crazy fights here, and that’s when the power of the spirit-guiding technique appears. In addition, the author wants to say that the appearance of this spirit-inducing technique is not sudden. As early as Qian Chao’s cultivation was at the first level of Qi Refining , the author laid the groundwork, and this trip to Shouwu Mountain can be regarded as the beginning of Qian Chao’s powerful method.)

After saying this, Qian Chao looked around and felt that the splendor around him was somewhat blocking his vision. Then after he cast a spell, the splendor gradually faded away, and in the end it was like a city surrounded by a transparent light blue light curtain. The sphere protects five people in it, so that the five people can clearly see what is happening around them.

"Hey, it seems less dazzling with this thing." Lu Pingchuan was the first to discover this.

Sure enough, just as this transparent light curtain can filter out the dazzling white light, when the five people looked out from it, the white light emitted by the evil tree next to them seemed to be much dimmed, and they could almost open their eyes wide and stare. See.

"No," Qian Chao stared at the big tree and said, "This is because the light from the evil tree has become weaker."



Also wrapped in a curtain of light was the stone platform.

Different from Qian Chao's place, the light curtain here is in the shape of a bright yellow hemisphere, completely covering the stone platform. The formations arranged by the ancestors of the Wuling Sect are really brilliant, such a violent vibration During this time, no movement outside could be detected on the stone platform within the light curtain, and the noisy and uncomfortable hum outside could only be vaguely heard inside.

Although it looks safe, within the bright yellow hemispheric light curtain here, the atmosphere between the five people on the stone platform is extremely strange.

"Humph, I've told you all, don't think too much. Since you are serving my cousin Lin Jian, how can he destroy the bridge by crossing the river!"

It was Lin Ji who spoke. Just now, Shen Qiubie couldn't help but question the two young masters from the Lin family. After all, Tang Ping's previous words hit on the weaknesses in the hearts of Hou Bao and the others. These three people were thinking In the sect, I hugged Lin Jian's thigh and relied on him, hoping to have a bright future with Lin Jian's support in the future. Therefore, I did not hesitate to work hard for him, and Lin Jian indeed promised these three , they were convinced before. But what Tang Ping said just now really alerted the three of them. Shangguan Hong's master was the famous Qiu Huahe. It was said that he was the first of the "five unreasonable" elders in the sect. , no one in the sect dared to provoke him. Shangguan Hong was framed by Lin Jian many years ago and was originally going to be executed. However, because of Qiu Huahe, he was expelled from the sect instead. Even if he was expelled from the sect, The master-disciple relationship between Qiu Huahe and Shangguan Hong has not changed. It is said that the Shangguan family has a close relationship with the elder Qiu. Therefore, the elder Qiu will do so much for the daughter of the Shangguan family. If it is true Shangguan Hong died in the hands of five people in Shouwo Mountain. How could he let go of the mountain?

If the man surnamed Qiu chases after him in the sect, he will really find some clues and suspect Lin Jian... No one wants to be involved in such trouble, not even Lin Jian's father Lin Hengzu. You can't just go to Yuhu Mountain to find that Yuanying monk Lin Bi to solve this trivial matter!

So what’s the simplest and most reassuring way?

Of course, there is no proof of death. As long as Hou Bao and the others disappear without a trace and die so hard that their bodies cannot be found, even if Qiu Huahe traces Hou Bao and the others all the way, the clues here will be cut off, and they can only become a nobody in the end. It’s just a head-turning koan!

Think more about Lin Jian's character. Does he have the kind of loyalty and willingness to take risks for his subordinates?

It doesn’t seem like Lin Jian is not this kind of person at all!

Thinking of this, Hou Bao and the other three people secretly regretted that they should not have gotten too involved in the matter between Lin Jian and Shangguan Hong, and now they were in trouble.

The noise coming from outside was louder, and through the bright yellow light curtain, all the rocks nearby could be seen as if they were rolling up and down in boiling water.

"Three of you," Lin Yuan also spoke, "My cousin Lin Jian seems to be the only one who can rely on you in the sect now. If he can't even tolerate you, wouldn't it be like cutting off his own arm? Who else would be willing to fight with him in the future?" Who is he with? That girl just now was so sharp-tongued that she was obviously trying to sow discord and divide us. Well, no matter how hard we two brothers explain it, we can't make the three of them feel at ease. How about this, this matter is over, and we will talk about it after we go back. How about persuading cousin Lin Jian to return to Wuling Sect as soon as possible, and then you can discuss this matter together?"

In Lin Yuan's view, these three guys are now like frightened birds. They have become extra vigilant. It seems that it is impossible to remove these three people according to Lin Jian's words this time. He reluctantly does it, saying Maybe the two brothers might not be able to get any advantage, so they would have to go back and talk to Lin Jian and let him deal with the aftermath on his own.

"How could the three of us brothers be fooled by Tang Ping? Don't worry, Mr. Lin. My brother just...just asked casually. But it would certainly be a good thing if Senior Brother Lin Jian can return to the sect as soon as possible."

Hou Bao endured the pain on his body and came out to smooth things over. This was not the time for his own people to turn against each other and take action. Moreover, whether he would take action or not depended on whether Shangguan Hong could be eliminated this time. If Shangguan Hong did not die, the relationship between Lin Jian and Shangguan Hong would be in danger in the future. The battle will still not end. In that case, the three of them will still be useful to Lin Jian. With him, he may be able to continue to stay in the Five Spirits Sect. He only hopes that Lin Jian will return to the Five Spirits Sect as soon as possible. Alas, it is very sad to say that Hou Bao has already believed Tang Ping's words in his heart, but in order to survive, he still has to compromise with people who have murderous intentions towards him. This really makes him feel sad and resentful. For him, This is a rare mood swing.



There were no changes around Shangguan Hong and Tian Shuangyou, but Shangguan Hong also made some preparations. There was a candlestick hanging quietly beside her. Above the candlestick was a short length that was obviously lit and used. Tian Shuangyou curiously looked at the small half of the white wax and the blackened wick on it, and asked:

"What is this for?"

"There will be a lot of trouble in a while. As long as we light it, we will be safe. This is a must-have for my master when he is walking outside."

Tian Shuangyou nodded after hearing this, then turned to look at where those people were. The stone platform was covered by a bright yellow hemisphere, and Hou Bao and the others were inside. It is estimated that no matter how hard they were, the bright yellow light curtain would protect them. They were fine, but Qian Chao and others were even more strange. The figures of five people were hanging in the air, in a light blue ball of light. They didn't know what the method was.

Shangguan Hong also saw the situation of Qian Chao and others. She had seen Qian Chao's methods with her own eyes and heard about them, but in her opinion, no matter how powerful Qian Chao was, he was just a wild man who relied on his own cleverness. It's just a path, it's impossible to resist the power of the ferocious beast's screen. Maybe after a while, you can see the light blue ball of light being submerged in the stormy waves.

"What methods did Qian Chao and those people use?" Tian Shuangyou asked.

Shangguan Hong shook his head.

"Then when do you plan to take action?" Tian Shuangyou asked again.

Shangguan Hong said:

"They had already woken up Ping Peng, and when Ping Peng stopped after a while, they thought they had succeeded and came to see if I was dead. They just sent them all away."



All the monsters in Shouwo Mountain were alarmed by the strange movement near the big glowing tree. Starting from the buzzing sound coming from the ground, all the monsters and birds here began to stare at pairs of red monsters. He looked at the evil tree with startled eyes. The powerful pressure of the ferocious beast's screen was rippling from there in waves, making all the demon birds and beasts feel terrified. They all came together like a tide without any orders. They began to flee outside, away from the big tree. At this time, as the white light emitted by the evil tree weakened, the entire Shouwo Mountain also became dark. On the ground, hooves and paws scratched, dust and sand flew, and many monster beasts rushed towards the ring of high peaks outside with a roaring sound. Dark wings stretched in the air, iron feathers flapped, and each monster bird also He screamed uneasily and flew away from the direction of the white light.

But after all, this Shouwo Mountain has been carefully arranged. There are two layers of spiritual veins on the outermost part blocking it like a wall, and there is a dense black mist above. Several thunders have been heard, and several birds have been flying among the strong lightning. The monster bird that was too high fell down in the lightning, and the other monster birds became even more frightened and cautious. No matter how much the demonic birds and beasts here do, they don't dare to fly too high and cause lightning strikes, and secondly, they don't dare to get too close to the mountain peaks outside. As they fled away, they felt more and more uncomfortable. This was caused by the two layers of spiritual veins outside Shouwo Mountain and their own five-element restraint. Another difference is that usually when these monster beasts meet, they all fight with their blood-red eyes to decide whether to live or die. But now, under the threat of the abnormal movement coming from the underground, the beasts bow their heads and only They were able to squeeze each other close to each other, but no one dared to show their claws at this time. They just looked at the big tree in fear. The monster beasts on the outermost layer were squeezed closest to the tree. Their extremely uncomfortable spiritual veins also let out bursts of whining.

"Hey, did you see that, those monsters have all run away!" Lu Pingchuan pointed outside and said.

"How scary is this screen? Did it scare them all like that?" Yanxuan said with some worry.

After a while, the vibrations and hums coming from the ground began to subside.

"Hey, how come it's all over after just such a short time? Is that what the ferocious beast is capable of?" Lu Pingchuan looked outside and asked in confusion.

"No..." Tang Ping said. She found that the white light emitted by the evil tree was a little weaker. "This is just the beginning!"

After another while, all the strange sounds and movements seemed to have disappeared.

In the rare silence, just when everyone in Shouwo Mountain was a little confused about this, suddenly an extremely dull and huge sound came from the ground. It is impossible to describe what kind of sound it was, no matter how far or near it was. , everyone just felt that the internal organs in their chests were vibrating with resonance from the sound. Qian Chao and the other five were okay. With the previous talisman to protect themselves, the five of them only felt a little uncomfortable.

And on the stone platform, the bright yellow hemispheric light curtain could not resist the intrusion of the loud noise. Everyone on the platform suddenly turned pale and their bodies were a little unstable, especially Hou Bao, who had been stabbed by Li Jian before. He hit the sword twice, and even though he applied some medicine randomly to stop the bleeding, under the loud noise, the wound suddenly burst open, and the blood gushed out again, and he almost fainted from the pain.

At the same time, Shangguan Hong and Tian Shuangyou couldn't bear the impact of the huge sound and their beautiful faces turned pale. Knowing that the screen was about to appear, Shangguan Hong pinched the half of the white wax wick with two fingers of his right hand. , the candle was lit when they were released. Under the faint light, the two women quickly recovered from the impact of the loud noise, and then continued to stare there intently.

The loud noise just now caused the ground to shake violently. The rocks on the ground were shaken into the air, and then fell one after another. Some of them even hit the light blue ball of light where Qian Chao and the five of them were. The strange thing was that those big rocks Before it hit the light ball, when it was several feet away, it was actually bounced away by a force. This discovery made several people who looked up at this scene feel relieved.

There were still stones in the air that had not yet fallen to the ground. At this moment, there were almost simultaneous explosions like thunder on both sides of the glowing evil tree, nearly a hundred feet away. The sound came from underground, but close to the ground, the huge impact shook the dust and sand on the ground. The rocks and trees all shot up high, and then their strong brilliance shot straight out from below where the mud and sand flew up and the trees flew in the air.

Two huge and furious roars sounded almost at the same time!

Landslide and tsunami!

Among the roars, Tang Ping was the most affected because she was cut off from all connections with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Her figure was almost unstable. She was hugged by Yanxuan, and the other three people also frowned. Resisting.

On the stone platform, five people were shaking and almost paralyzed there.

The candlelight suddenly became brighter. Under the candlelight, although Shangguan Hong and Tian Shuangyou were a little uncomfortable, they performed much better than Hou Bao or Qian Chao. It seemed that the candle was indeed nice one.



"Oh my god..." Tian Shuangyou muttered, raising his head and eyes wide.

Although Shangguan Hong was silent, it was the first time she had seen the true form of the ferocious beast, and there was a look of shock on her face.



Hou Bao sat slumped on the stone platform. He was in the most miserable state. He couldn't tell where was the blood of the previous demon beast and where was the blood gushing from his wound. However, he didn't care at all and just looked up blankly. As he stood, he felt a deep fear at this moment, that... was the ferocious beast that had been awakened by them. In front of it, everyone seemed so small!

But they seem to use such monsters to harm others for themselves. Isn’t it a bit whimsical?



"Oh my god!" Lu Pingchuan's face showed a rare look of shock. He opened his mouth wide and stared out, looking out in a daze.

As a sword cultivator, Li Jian had the most stable mind, but when he looked up and looked up, he felt that his palms were sweaty.

At this moment, Qian Chao's eyes flashed with blazing blue light, staring at the giant thing rising from the ground.

Because Yanxuan was scared, she held Tang Ping extra hard. At this time, she and Tang Ping looked to both sides, because an incredible scene appeared on both sides of the evil tree whose white light was obviously much dimmed!

"That's it..." Yanxuan felt that his heart almost jumped out of his throat.

"Pingpeng!" Tang Ping murmured.
