Chapter 402 Blood-stained sky (6)
Lin Hengshan, who was sitting in the pavilion, held a black stone in his hand and dropped it onto the chessboard. The white stone, which had the advantage, suddenly became passive and lost two or three stones.
The old man took root, one move after another, very fast. The black and white pieces on the chessboard are like two big dragons, killing each other. After a hard fight, each lost something, but they were still evenly matched.
"Haha, it's interesting. It seems that I really underestimated this Ji family before!" Lin Hengshan shook his head with a smile, picked up another white piece, and landed it on the chessboard very steadily with his palm, but the position Somewhat biased.
…
Just as Yinren and the others were fighting fiercely with the masters from Luoye's side, the door of the originally silent and eerie Sifang Tower quietly opened.
Soon the door closed again, as if nothing happened! If someone had been here before, they would have thought that something unclean was at work. In addition, the Square Tower was already very mysterious in the governor's house, which gave it an even more terrifying atmosphere.
In the originally silent and dark tower, the sound of light footsteps slowly came. After a while, a soft rumble broke the original terrifying silence.
"It's actually a bloodthirsty formation? This Lord Commander is really unscrupulous!" As the words fell, a figure slowly appeared, but the first layer of the tower was very dim and could not see the person clearly. Appearance.
However, he did not stay too long on the first floor, and his footsteps slowly went up the stairs.
This square tower is designed with a hollow in the middle. People entering the tower can stand on the first floor, look up, and their eyes can reach the top of the tower.
The steps inside the tower are built on the side against the wall, constantly winding up. This weird design with a hollow in the middle is probably only used by this kind of "square tower". After all, the support is supported by a column. Instead of four roots on four sides, this way of building a tower is indeed rare.
Finally, the footsteps stopped on the second floor. Looking at the wisps of skylight from the side, the man was stunned for a moment and then laughed.
It turns out that the four walls of this square tower had a row of regularly drilled holes. However, because they were too small and the outer main body of the tower was pitch black, not many people noticed.
However, now that he was inside the tower, wisps of skylight leaked in from the outside, immediately revealing these small holes. Wisps of light beams hit the ground on the second floor of the tower, giving the originally dark environment some brightness. However, these light beams only hit the ground and did not hit the large hole in the center, so they could not be seen from the first floor. No light at all.
At this time, the figure of this man was finally revealed. In the mottled light, a handsome face and a figure dressed as a scholar gradually emerged. The young man was standing there with his hands behind his back. This man was from Fuyun before. The one who escaped was Helian Haixin.
He squinted his eyes, then examined the surrounding environment in the sky, and a haze slowly filled his forehead.
A young man who has read through the books of sages since he was a child, naturally knows the meaning of these formations. There is a bloodthirsty array on the first floor, and a horse soul array on the second floor. If the bloodthirsty array can be explained as being used for animal sacrifice, then this horse soul array cannot conceal Ji Shenfu's wolf ambition!
Helian Haixin did not stop any longer, subconsciously speeding up his pace and continuing to walk to the upper level. Soon he came to the third floor. As expected, there were many small holes on the four tower walls, revealing wisps of skylight. The young man unfolded his soul and scanned it briefly, and determined that the formation here was the notorious spirit-absorbing formation of the Demon Sect!
It absorbs the various inner energies of the warrior monks, fuses them with the power of flesh and blood, and transforms them into true essence spiritual energy by annihilating the soul. In order to distinguish the true essence of heaven and earth, people call it the spiritual essence of heaven and earth.
This kind of heaven and earth spiritual essence obtained from the spiritual formation is different from the real heaven and earth true essence. It is extremely pure. It does not require the warrior to use the circulation of the heaven and earth in the body over and over again to extract and refine it, and the backlash is extremely harmful. Xiao, it is really an absolute weapon for warriors to practice!
It is precisely because of the existence of the spirit-absorbing formation that so many people in the world of demon cultivators choose to take this forbidden path and massacre their own kind in order to practice their skills.
He Lianhai felt a little ups and downs in his heart, and he didn't know why he was angry. In the eyes of the young man, as the governor of a county, he allowed people of the devil's way to harm his own kind. No matter what the reason was, it was not a decent way to do it.
When he thought of this, the figures of the four strange men in black suddenly appeared in his mind.
"I see... These people are so skilled, but no one knows about it, hum! Let's see what other methods you have!" The handsome young man snorted coldly, and stepped up to the fourth floor of the square tower.
This is already the top floor of the entire tower, and the pointed top of the tower is like a big hand covering it. When Helian Haixin stepped onto the top floor of the tower, his heart moved.
Because he noticed that the formations here were special and were not those commonly used by ordinary magic cultivators. The young man observed for a long time, but he was full of doubts in his heart. He couldn't help but murmured:
"Bloodthirsty, colt soul, spirit-absorbing... Ordinary demonic cultivation is enough here, why here?..."
Helian Hai was filled with doubts and couldn't help but inject strands of inner energy into the formation at his feet!
Along with a flash of light, wisps of dark space patterns loomed over this sealed formation.
Helian Haixin's expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help blurting out: "What?! Space magic circle!"
No wonder the youth would be so shocked. Although the formations he encountered on the three floors below were the notorious Demon Sect formations, they were still unattractive things. Otherwise, none of the top warriors in the world have ever heard of using this method to achieve their goals.
But this "space array" is different!
Even the most basic space magic circle requires a ninth-level powerhouse to take action!
The ninth level is from Shengdengtang!
There is actually a space array in this mysterious square tower, and it is built on top of three demon sect arrays!
Helian Hai naturally understood the meaning behind this, but he did not dare to think about it in detail. The anger in the handsome young man's chest just now turned into a trace of cold sweat, soaking through his clothes.
Luoye City does not have such a powerful person, it can only be the handiwork of the forces behind it!
A strong person in the Nine Realms from the Holy Realm, a strong person that even the first-class sects in the world could hardly possess. As soon as he thought of this, a name instantly appeared in his mind.
Luo Yunzong!
Only the Luo Yun Sect, one of the eight major sects in the world, has such strength, and in this Luoye County, it can only be the Luo Yun Sect...
In fact, Helian Haixin made a mistake. The layout of the space formation did require the participation of the combat power of the Nine Realms from the Saint Realm, but it did not necessarily have to be carried out by the Nine Realms' strong men in person.
Like a general first-class sect, it can also be arranged by multiple warriors from the Mahayana Realm (i.e. the eighth level) working together. This is an important reason why the magic formations of various sects can be maintained to this day. 51
As long as a sect with a deep foundation and a strong man from the holy realm has appeared in history, it can deploy a powerful "space mountain protection formation"! Even if this strong man falls in the future, as long as the inheritance is still there, many less powerful men can still manage to keep the formation from falling.
…………Dividing line…………
Yi Xifeng and others hurried to the northern camp. At this time, there were many people standing in the camp, including almost all the armored guards of the northern camp.
Zhao Long, Wang Bodang, and Lin Lei had already arrived at the camp. When they saw the six of them coming, they came over to greet them.
"I heard that the salary list has issued a batch of new tasks!" Although Zhao Long usually doesn't like to talk, it was rare for him to speak up first. After all, he is a member of the Zhao family, so he naturally knows the news about the salary list earlier than others.
Qi Chengcheng geared up and said, "New mission? It's not easy! I haven't had any missions for more than half a month, and my body and bones are almost falling apart at home!" As he spoke, the funny boy even stretched.
Yi Xifeng smiled and patted the young man on the shoulder and said, "How about you come and train with Team Zhou with me?"
Qi Chengcheng muttered with a smile: "Haha, no need, thank you! I'm not Zhao Long. If I don't play well with a knife, I have to follow you in the sword play..."
Yi Xifeng and Zhao Long looked at each other and raised their eyebrows in unison. Then, one on the left and the other on the right, they held the funny boy and walked behind the tent.
Qi Chengcheng also knew that he was likely to be beaten for his words, so he immediately shouted loudly: "Don't make trouble! Stop making trouble! The captains are here."
Sure enough, just a moment later, Zhou Di, Zhang Yanshi, Lu Huahua and two other captain-level guards, Tieyi, appeared in the stands on one side of the camp.
Yi Xifeng narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at Zhao Long. When he saw the other party nodded indiscernibly, the two of them quickened their pace and hid behind the tent of the Funny Boy King like a trot.
Seeing this, Qi Chengcheng finally realized that this beating was inevitable, and simply shouted: "Team Zhou! Team Zhou! I, I also want to participate in physical training!"
His voice successfully attracted the attention of the five captains on the stage. Zhou Di, the young man holding the halberd standing on the far left, frowned and shouted: "What the hell are you three doing?! You are all gathering, where are you going?" ?”
The young man's shout had an effect, and Yi Xifeng and Zhao Long subconsciously stopped where they were. Seeing this, Qi Chengcheng knew that he was saved, and immediately shouted: "Team Zhou, Team Zhou! I want to participate in training, training..."
In fact, Qi Chengcheng was lucky. There were five captain-level guards in Tieyi on the stage. With Yi Xifeng and Zhao Long's stubborn donkey temperaments that even eight oxen could not pull back, it would be difficult for them to do anything else! The funny boy is destined to receive a beating today!
However, Zhou Di is an exception. It’s not that his status is higher than others, but because these two people have been following Zhou Di in thunder and lightning body training, and their bodies have formed subconscious reflex arcs. In response to the young man’s orders, the two of them Without deliberate control, it will be executed subconsciously.
This is why, just now, Zhou Di shouted and asked, and he was able to keep the two of them on the spot.
Qi Chengcheng struggled to escape from the hands of the two men, and ran to the front of the crowd, not daring to take a step closer to the two men.
Yi Xifeng smiled bitterly and shook his head. He decided to spare this kid this time and settle old and new accounts together next time!
…
Zhang Yanshi, as the only warrior among the captains present who had broken through to the knight realm, naturally stood in the center of the team. As for his order to join the mountain patrol team, it is estimated that the handover will not be completed until after this fall.
After all, the heroic young man has been guarding Tieyi for more than a year, and many personnel are not fully equipped. Once he leaves, another captain-level warrior will be vacant. Who will be this person and how the follow-up work will be handed over are all issues that will take time to resolve.
"We have called everyone here today. Naturally, we have a mission." Zhang Yanshi glanced at the armored guards present. Except for those who stayed behind and patrolled, the rest of the armored guards had already arrived.
"Team Zhang, what kind of mission is it? Is it designated or public?" Everyone in the audience was naturally very happy when they heard that there was a mission to be received, so they asked.
The so-called designated tasks refer to which organizations are designated by the salary list organization to complete. For example, the previously promulgated "super-terrestrial level tasks" and the subsequent "earth-level continuous tasks" are designated tasks. These tasks can only be seen by Guard Tieyi. To receive it.
Public tasks refer to tasks released by the salary list organization in various strongholds. Anyone can take on these tasks. Only if you have the corresponding ability certification, you can complete them and receive rewards. Fifth Xiaoxiao was a hired killer who took on tasks like this.
Lu Huahua on the side took out a roll of kraft paper, unfolded it with a flick of her hand, and went straight to the notice board on the side with a flick of her fingers. Then she said loudly: "There are many tasks released this time, including designated tasks and public tasks, as well as mysterious and earth-level tasks. As for those who feel challenged, you can try one of the public heaven-level tasks!"
"Open mission? Heaven level! Oh my God..."
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen an open mission to the heaven level!”
"Captain Lu, are you kidding me? We, a group of guards in iron armor, are not even qualified to connect to a heaven-level mission!"
"You can't take it on, why don't you give it a try? I'm just curious, who are you going to kill in this heaven-level mission?!"
Everyone was talking about it, and it was obvious that this public task was very attractive.
The captains on the stage paid no attention to the team members in the audience. They knew the appeal of the news, so they followed them first.
"What? Helian Haixin?! Why is this name so familiar?"
"It may be related to Helian Tiexin from Tiexin Village. Is he here for revenge?"
"That's not right. If you are here for revenge, this mission is issued by the salary list itself. You must know that the mission issued by the salary list cannot be a public mission, it must be a designated one."
Just when everyone was talking, a slightly older voice sounded in the crowd, "Helian Haixin? That's the genius of the Helian family in Yunxi! The famous Helian Yun Sheng!"
The speaker was a middle-aged man with short hair, as short as a steel needle, mixed with gray. It can be seen that his age is indeed not young.
"Oh, it's Mr. Ma! What did you say? Who is Saint Helian Yun?" A young man asked beside the middle-aged man.
However, this time the person who answered him was not the old man surnamed Ma, but a captain-level strongman standing on the stage. This man was wearing a standard guard armor, but he wore a hemp-yellow cloak.
"That's right, it's the world-famous Helian Haixin, whose name is... Yun Sheng more than ten years ago!"
