Chapter 333: Battle of Tianlan (5)
Chapter 333: Battle of Tianlan (5)
At the moment when the remaining tower shattered, an extremely creepy scream suddenly rang out, as if it came from the Nine Netherworld.
Then a portal suddenly appeared at that location, and endless resentful ghosts and evil spirits rushed out of it, as if the door to the underworld had been opened.
Du Yuan detonated the tower regardless of the consequences, which triggered a horrifying scene that he had never seen before.
He had no choice but to do so as the situation had become one-sided. After a careful count, there were only him and Du Yuanjun left on the field.
One of the ten true disciples of another family lineage had just been killed by Fang Xiao, without even having the chance to beg for mercy.
How could Du Yuan have imagined that the little foundation-building cultivator in the True Spirit Hall could now become someone who could kill early Nascent Soul cultivators at will.
If it were him, he might not be able to do it so easily.
With seven Yuanyings about to escape, he had no choice but to take a risky move.
At this moment, the seven Yuanyings including Qingyuan were like a small boat in a raging tide, in danger of capsizing at any time.
Fang Xiao was also attracted by the situation here and ignored Du Yuan and Du Yuanjun who had escaped from the battle.
The passage seemed equally dark, but it could be seen clearly by Fang Xiao, who was proficient in the art of space.
There was no passage at all, and it was the base of the ruined tower that released the vengeful ghosts.
It has eight sides and eight corners, is bright red all over, and has a swastika seal engraved in the center. The whole thing looks like a crystal plate.
"Swastika seal? It seems that this tower is not an evil object at all. It is very likely a treasure used by the Buddhist sect to suppress evil spirits and evil spirits."
Fang Xiao guessed that it might be because it was severely damaged and lost the ability to detain, and the evil spirits that were originally suppressed could be released but not contained, making it look like a thing from the devil.
No one knew where Du Yuan got this treasure from. The evil spirits suppressed by it must have been more than a thousand times powerful. If they continued, the seven people of Qingyuan would be in danger of death.
Although Ling Taichu only asked him to look after the true disciples, how could he just stand by and watch when the sect's Nascent Soul was in danger?
And this swastika tower base seemed to be of some use to him.
Fang Xiao felt the soul-nourishing gourd constantly vibrating in his sea of consciousness, apparently caused by the appearance of the swastika tower.
Whether it is to save Qingyuan and others, or to get the swastika tower base, we need to find a way to suppress the resentful ghosts that are constantly overflowing.
On the other side, Du Yuan has already reunited with Du Yuanjun, who has gotten rid of the true disciples of Fu Beichen and others.
This should have been the best time for them to escape from the cave, but unfortunately Fang Xiao had already noticed it and moved to the exit of the cave.
Presumably, the suppression was also going on outside the cave, and everyone was doing their job. Fang Xiao thought it would be better to solve it here and for all. If he ran away, it would mess up the layout, or even hurt the lives of the disciples watching the fight.
"Ancestor, is this really the only way?"
Du Yuanjun asked helplessly.
"Look at the current situation. Do we have any way out? We can only take a gamble. If the gamble is right, we will have a chance to get out of this unscathed."
"But if the bet is wrong, you will also have the opportunity to leave, and I will be miserable."
The two of them seemed to have some tricks that they hadn't used yet, but between the lines, this trick seemed to pose a great risk to Du Yuanjun.
"Then do you think you still have the right to choose?"
There was a hint of threat in Du Yuan's tone.
Du Yuanjun looked dejected and his eyes slowly closed, as if he had accepted his fate.
Seeing that Du Yuanjun did not resist, Du Yuan immediately moved in front of him and pointed his sword finger directly at his forehead.
Then even Du Yuanjun's forehead began to ripple like the surface of water, and then Du Yuan's two fingers actually probed into his forehead.
The strange thing is that Du Yuanjun seemed to be unaware of it and did not show any pain at all.
The next moment, Du Yuan slowly pulled out his two fingers, and there was a talisman between his fingers.
The runes on this talisman were extremely complex and seemed to be of a very high level. However, after leaving Du Yuanjun's forehead, it instantly combusted and turned into ashes.
At the same time, Du Yuanjun's eyes suddenly opened, and a trace of spiritual light gathered in his dark pupils, turning them completely blue.
Just when Du Yuan was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Du Yuanjun's face and body began to change, and his aura continued to rise.
But in just a few breaths, apart from his clothes, Du Yuanjun had completely turned into a stranger.
But anyone who has seen Chong Yuanzi can see that his face is exactly the same as when he was young.
Feeling the cultivation level of the person in front of him at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, Du Yuan's expression suddenly changed, but he quickly restrained himself.
"Du Yuan has met Master Chong Yuan."
He understood that what Du Yuanjun was worried about had already happened.
On the eve of the True Transmission Competition, Chong Yuanzi suddenly found Du Yuanjun who had not yet returned to the sect. Without asking for his opinion, he directly accepted him as a disciple and planted a part of his soul on the spot, under the euphemism of protection.
But Du Yuan and Du Yuanjun were not fools, so they naturally understood that this was Chong Yuanzi's plan.
After the spirit is planted in the body, the body can be temporarily controlled by possession.
This was the same way that Cangxi possessed Qinghong.
In this way, there will be no harm to either the possessed or the possessed.
The other type is to directly and forcibly erase the original owner's consciousness and take over the original owner's nest, which is called incarnation.
It is quite similar to taking over another's body.
Du Yuan and Du Yuanjun were afraid of the second situation, so they spent a large sum of money to buy this fourth-level top-level soul-suppressing talisman from Wanbao Pavilion.
If it is a complete incarnation of the spirit, it will naturally not have any effect, but it is more than enough to suppress a split spirit.
I had been planning to stay like this, but I didn't expect to encounter this situation.
It's a death situation either way, so they can only bet that Chong Yuanzi has no bad intentions and at most will only possess Du Yuanjun.
But after Du Yuan saw that his face, figure, aura, and cultivation had all changed, he realized that Du Yuanjun's soul had been wiped out by Chong Yuanzi and he had completely become an incarnation.
"Humph, you actually dared to suppress this strand of my spirit. You simply don't know how to live or die."
Chong Yuanzi was furious. The purpose of planting the distraction in Du Yuanjun was to sneak into the Tianlan Sect's true transmission competition.
Afterwards, he would seize his body and transform into an incarnation to destroy all the true disciples in the cave.
However, his plan was nearly ruined by a spirit-suppressing talisman.
Upon hearing this, Du Yuan immediately knelt on the ground and explained nervously, "Master Chongyuan, please forgive me. I didn't know Du Yuanjun was so bold. It is his honor to be the incarnation of Master Chongyuan. He dared to suppress Master Chongyuan's spirit. He deserves death."
Du Yuanjun is dead anyway, so as long as we put all the blame on him, there will be no evidence to prove anything.
"Noisy."
Chong Yuanzi didn't even want to listen, and directly shot out a stream of flame, which landed on Du Yuan.
Following his scream, the flame suddenly surged and completely swallowed Du Yuan in an instant.
In the end, even the Nascent Soul could not escape and was directly turned into a handful of ashes by the flame.
