Chapter 230: Sword Cultivation Pond, Resurrection
"Was this Ten Thousand Demon Prison jointly built by the two great families in the human dynasty you live in?"
Walking on the second level of the cave, Donghuang walked out of the Demon-Suppressing Hall. She looked up at the Ten Thousand Demons Prison, where the evil aura had turned into reality, and looked at Feng Qingan beside her.
"good."
Feng Qing'an's face was full of thought at this moment. Originally, he did not have any special feelings about the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom and the Ten Thousand Demons Prison in the cave.
When he first obtained the power of the cave heaven, he only took a rough glance under the guidance of the spirit of the cave heaven. But now, with Donghuang, he looked at these two layers carefully. With Donghuang's vision and guidance, Feng Qingan quickly realized that there was something wrong with these two layers.
"Their plan is quite big!"
Donghuang looked at the vast Prison of Ten Thousand Demons from afar. The demons imprisoned here were naturally all in a state of confinement. The sky above his head was dim and without light. The light source of this layer was emitted by billions of soul-sealing talismans and demon-subduing Sanskrit characters.
"What do they want to do with these demons?"
Although Feng Qing'an had read a lot of Taoist and Buddhist scriptures and was no longer completely ignorant of spiritual practice, he could only guess when it came to arrangements that involved a deeper level.
But now that Donghuang is by his side, there is no need for him to guess. He can just ask directly.
"It's a very common arrangement. Sacrifice thousands of demons with blood, use their souls and blood to refine the magic array, increase the family heritage, and find ways to pass on the family legacy."
Dong Huang said lightly. She looked at Feng Qingan and couldn't help laughing.
"Unfortunately, they chose the wrong place. Everything they did ended up being a wedding dress for you."
"I will not arbitrarily seize other people's property."
Feng Qing'an shook his head slightly. He understood what Dong Huang meant. Although the royal family of Dajin and the Xiao family of Fengtian had joined forces to build and arrange the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons and the Prison of Ten Thousand Demons, they chose to do so in the cave heaven.
They didn't know that there was now a new master here. When the day came when he took control of the cave, all the accumulations from hundreds of years of painstaking efforts would naturally belong to him, and everything would become nothing.
"Don't you understand how powerful a magic array created with the blood of tens of thousands of demons can be?"
"How strong?"
Feng Qingan asked curiously, the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons has the Demon Locking Tower as the node, while in the Prison of Ten Thousand Demons, the Demon Subduing Hall is the place to suppress demons.
"I don't know what the humans who set up this formation call it, but you should be able to see its main effect, which is to subdue demons and monsters. Once this formation is completed, even I will find it difficult to get caught in it."
Dong Huang's tone was very serious, without any joking in his heart. Although no one in the aristocratic family of this human dynasty was worthy of her attention, the achievements that this family had gradually accomplished through the collective strength of the people and passed down from generation to generation were something that she had to take seriously.
"Can it threaten you?"
Hearing Dong Huang's evaluation, Feng Qing'an's expression couldn't help but become more serious. He had seen Dong Huang's strength. The Tianlong Monk who could calmly retreat in the face of the City God was completely powerless to resist under her.
"That is indeed amazing, but under normal circumstances, you would not step into it, right? Moreover, since it is a magic circle, it will take time to make it work. There are too many flaws, and how complete can it be?"
Although Feng Qing'an took the demon-suppressing magic circle more seriously because of Dong Huang's evaluation, he still pointed out what he thought were several major flaws.
Such a huge magic circle, no matter how powerful it is, can only be fixed in one place. If you face a strong enemy, do you still expect the other party to take the initiative to walk in? Impossible.
If the demons could be thrown in by force, it would be even more useless. With such magical powers, this magic circle to suppress demons would be nothing but superfluous and useless.
Finally, as you can tell from Dong Huang’s evaluation, this huge formation is still in an unfinished state. How many years of accumulation will it take to reach the level of being able to suppress the Taoist human immortals, the Netherworld ghost immortals, and the Buddhist Arhats?
“Almost done.”
"Um?"
Feng Qingan, who was just finding fault with something, was stunned and looked at Dong Huang.
" Is this almost done?"
"It has been more than eight hundred years since the Demon Subduing Hall was built. With such a long time and the accumulation of generations, it is not surprising that this formation is about to be completed."
Dong Huang turned around and looked at the Demon-Subduing Hall behind him. This was a large hall built with spiritual gold refined using a special technique. It was pitch black in color and covered with soul-forbidden talismans and demon-subduing Sanskrit characters.
Even Donghuang had to praise that the human race who set up this formation in the first place had put in all their efforts, whether it was Taoism or Buddhism, as long as it was useful, they all used it.
When a Taoist sees this scene, he will curse it as a bald donkey, and a monk will chant "Amitabha". Of course, from the perspective of practicality, it is indeed worthy of praise and noteworthy.
But it is difficult to conceal its biggest flaw, which is the limitations of the arranger himself, limited by his vision and knowledge, so there are many flaws and shortcomings. Even so, the merits outweigh the flaws.
“But this is too big.”
Although Feng Qing'an was tempted for a moment, he also felt a headache when he saw the Demon-Suppressing Palace in front of him, which was like a prehistoric giant beast, crawling on the ground and seemed ready to stand up at any time and devour thousands of demons.
No matter how much Donghuang praises it, it still can't change a thing. The practicality of this thing is too poor and its application scenarios are almost non-existent.
The Demon-Suppressing Palace in front of us is ridiculously large, as if it were a palace prepared for giants. Even the skeleton of a giant that is about to revive can live in it by shrinking its head.
This is just one of them. There are a total of seventy-two similar Demon-Subduing Palaces and thirty-six Demon-Locking Towers. When combined together, they form the demon-locking and demon-subduing formation that can make Donghuang feel fearful.
If he could move this thing, he could smash his enemy to death with just its weight. Why would he bother activating it and setting up a magic circle?
"This is a magic array set up for family inheritance, so it is inevitable that there will be such flaws."
Donghuang did not change her mind because of this. The human race gathered everyone's strength to accomplish something and passed it down from generation to generation. This deeply touched her.
"It's just a magic array . I know a thing or two about it. I can make changes to this array after it's completed."
"Can this be changed?"
"Of course you can. It's better to say that the person who set up the formation was a genius. He knew that his knowledge was limited, so he left a foundation that could be modified."
"How are you going to change it?"
Feng Qingan discovered that Dong Huang was a jack of all trades. There was nothing she didn't know. No matter what it was, she had some knowledge of it.
With such talent from her elder sister, how could her younger sister be any worse? Unfortunately, something went wrong with Nan Ge's reincarnation, causing her true soul to become confused and she temporarily lost her memory of her past life.
"You can set up a sword-raising pool in the Demon Locking Tower to nourish the thirty-six demon-suppressing swords. The same can be done in the Demon Subduing Hall. Of course, you can also cultivate formation flags. The effect is the same, but there will be less killing power and more trapping power."
Dong Huang casually spoke out her thoughts and ideas . She had seen similar arrangements before, so her thoughts were naturally clear.
"Is it possible?"
Feng Qing'an, who had just stepped into the world of cultivation, was astounded by her beauty, and then his heart was pounding.
He naturally had no interest in the Demon Locking Tower and the Demon Subduing Hall, but if it was the Demon Suppression Sword and the Demon Slaying Sword, it would be different. However, he still had a little doubt.
"Can setting up a sword-raising pond or offering sacrifices to formation flags achieve the same effect? Can it pose a threat to a ghost fairy like you?"
"Of course you can. After the modification, you can continue to sacrifice blood to demons to increase your power. I have seen similar ancient methods. The more demons you kill, the stronger your power will be."
“I see.”
Feng Qing'an had to admit that he was really tempted, but there was one thing that made him hesitate. After all, this was the wealth that the two major families had worked hard to accumulate for hundreds of years. Wouldn't it be a bad idea for him to just come and take it away from them?
The Xiao family's intention of setting up the formation was very simple, which was to ensure the inheritance of the family. So the Xiao family didn't care whether it could be moved or not, as long as it could block the foundation of their Xiao family.
"What else do you have to worry about?"
Knowing Feng Qingan's concerns, Donghuang didn't care.
"This cave has already served you as its master. They live in the cave. You did not expel them, which is a favor from you. I am just taking advantage of their heritage. What's wrong with that?
Besides, when I have finished arranging it, you can use it as you like, and put it back to its original place after use. The people of this noble family may not be able to notice it. "
"this……"
"Since ancient times, the natural treasures, divine weapons and sharp weapons have belonged to the virtuous. If you still have any grudges, I can show up now and summon the head of this family to serve you as their master. Then you can use the Xiao family's heritage without any worries."
Dong Huang spoke calmly. She did not feel that there was anything wrong with what she said. From ancient times to the present, no matter which ethnic group, the weak have always submitted to the strong, the small tribes have been subject to the big tribes, and the weak countries have always been vassals of the strong countries.
All those who dare to disobey and want to show courage will eventually disappear in the long river of time.
Compared with the Xiao family, even though it has been passed down for thousands of years, for an existence like Donghuang that possesses great power, the Xiao family is an absolute weakling. It is natural to accept the Xiao family as a vassal. For them, this is even a gift.
"I'd better do it myself."
Feng Qingan shook his head and rejected Donghuang's kindness.
He knew the Xiao family's background better than the Xiao family themselves. He knew that if Donghuang showed up, the Xiao family would definitely bow to him, even if they worshipped a city god.
However, compared to a ghost fairy who can travel freely between the underworld and the human world, the City God, who can only display his power in Fengtian City, is really too powerless.
"Well, do it yourself."
Dong Huang nodded and didn't think anything of it. Since Feng Qing'an was willing to do it himself, she was happy to watch. It was just an aristocratic family in the mortal world, not a family in the cultivation world. That would be scary.
"Do you want to take another look in the Prison of Ten Thousand Demons?"
"No need to look at it."
After Dong Huang toured all the floors, he did not stay here, because just as Feng Qingan introduced, this was a demon cave that was quite badly damaged.
All we can say is that the foundation is good and there is a possibility of restoring its former glory, but other than that there is nothing commendable. After all, the human race has recognized this place as a blessed land, so what else is there to say.
"I'm going back."
Soon after Donghuang came to the human world, she brought back a large number of Taoist scriptures and Buddhist scriptures. After she survived the heavenly tribulation, as her strength reached a new level, the ambitions of the ghost kings who submitted to her also rose to a new level. Today, the Youhuang Ghost Kingdom is in a period of crazy expansion, and Donghuang cannot leave for too long.
Of course, although the Youhuang Ghost Kingdom has become like a roaring war machine, Donghuang, as the supreme ruler, no longer does everything himself as before, but delegates power.
She no longer needs to hold everything in her hands. As long as the ghost king under her is not mentally ill, he will never betray her again.
But even so, Donghuang did not have much free time. After she had slept for a long time, she had to read the newly appeared Taoist and Buddhist scriptures carefully.
She needs to prepare corresponding amendments for Feng Qing'an. In fact, as long as they are not behind the current amendments, some ancient methods may not be weaker than the current methods even after going through vicissitudes of time, because the people who created the methods have streamlined them to the extreme, to the point where they cannot be changed anymore.
The Queen of Youhuang was making preparations in advance for Feng Qingan's arrival. She knew that Feng Qingan would meet her requirements sooner or later, and at that time, she would no longer be able to refuse.
In December of the 30th year of Yongkang, there was a slight cold and heavy snow.
In the Longyin Academy, where the majestic aura spanned the sky, a middle-aged man with a scholarly air left the empty courtyard with a frown. He came to catch the students who skipped classes, but he never expected that he didn't even see anyone.
"Where did this kid go to have fun?"
At this moment, Feng Qing'an, who was giving the teachers of Longyin Academy a headache and even a little bit of disappointment, was standing blankly in a realm that almost no one knew about and could not reach except him. He looked up at the giant skeleton in front of him, which was as tall as a mountain even when sitting down. The sky showed an ecstatic look.
The giant skeleton, with red-gold spiritual light shining all over its body, even on its calves, now had circles of spiritual halo rippling outwards.
Although his feet were still made of rock, the spiritual flame burning in his skull was so conspicuous, and its brilliance was so bright that it even replaced the projection of the Golden Crow in the sky.
"Identification!"
[Type: Longbo Giant]
[Attributes: Spirit, Earth, Soil, Yin]
[Potential Level: King·Superior]
[Combat Power Level: Lord·Superior]
"Hahaha, it worked, I finally developed it!"
Looking at this giant skeleton that has already given birth to intelligence, Feng Qing'an couldn't help but laugh out loud, his face full of joy, which was beyond words. Although the identification results were somewhat unsatisfactory, there are still some parts that have not been endowed with spirituality. After they are completed, there may be new changes.
