Chapter 675: The Spirit of the Formation
When the blue-faced worm in the lead saw Ye Changsheng and the other two, a ferocious look suddenly appeared on his face, and he laughed strangely in human language:
“Haha… That’s great… He turned out to be a foreigner… I can have another feast of flesh and blood… Haha…”
As he spoke, he leaped forward, bringing the four human-faced insects with him and rushing forward quickly. He opened his mouth wide, revealing his sharp teeth, as if he wanted to tear all three people apart.
Ye Changsheng opened his mouth and a stream of immortal energy surged out from his chest, abdomen and five internal organs, which turned into a ball of light and flew out of his mouth.
Then, the five-colored fairy energy separated and turned into strands of green, yellow, black, white, and red. With just a entanglement, they bound the five human-faced insects that were rushing towards them aggressively.
A strange hissing sound was heard, and the five human-faced insects all opened their mouths and roared, struggling violently.
But Ye Changsheng turned a deaf ear to them, feeling the power of these five insects, and marveled at them:
"Although they are not at the Mahayana level, an ordinary Mahayana will definitely not be able to deal with them in a short period of time!"
"If two or three of them join forces, they will be able to resist a Mahayana cultivator, or even defeat him!"
"Especially this blue bug, it almost has the strength of a true Mahayana. These five bugs working together are enough to severely damage an ordinary Mahayana!"
When Baohua and Han Li heard this, their expressions became serious.
How many of these stem borers have the mother stem borer bred?
No wonder the hundreds of Mahayana monks who came in before disappeared silently.
"From the perspective of strength and other aspects, this blue human-faced insect is almost as good as the three half-step insect kings I have!"
"However, the Insect King's physical body is far superior to theirs and is almost indestructible. This is something they cannot compare to!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
He stretched out his hand and waved it. The five elements of immortal energy rolled like a tide, sweeping over the five human-faced insects, and the five insects were crushed to pieces.
If other Mahayana practitioners encountered these human face bugs, they would be in big trouble.
But any one of the three present has the ability to easily kill these human-faced insects and turn them into powder with ease.
After the human-faced worms were cleared away, this cave-like place became empty.
Baohua carefully observed the surroundings, nodded, and said: "No problem, this is the place where I communicated with the spirit of the formation before. I also need Brother Ye to help me protect the formation!"
"Don't worry!" Ye Changsheng nodded slightly and said.
So, Baohua walked to the center of the cave, flipped her palm, and a sandalwood appeared in her hand. She opened her mouth and exhaled a ball of pink air, lighting the sandalwood.
Then, he sat cross-legged in the air, and a giant pink flower blossomed behind him. Billowing pink mist gushed out from it and poured into the sandalwood.
Suddenly, the scent of sandalwood was strong in the cave, and the smoke drifted away to an unknown place in the darkness.
Han Li felt the scent of sandalwood and began to feel vaguely uneasy.
For some reason, he always felt like someone was watching him. He had this feeling ever since he entered the cave.
He released his vast spiritual sense and tried hard to explore the surrounding situation, but found nothing unusual.
Looking at Senior Brother Ye again, his expression was calm, as if he didn't notice anything unusual at all.
"Am I overthinking?" Han Li wondered in his heart. He was confused and at a loss.
However, what he didn't know was that at this moment, in a dark underground cave at the deepest part of the underground palace, an indistinct figure suddenly let out a low, sinister laugh:
“Spirit Refining Technique! I’ve cultivated it to the second level! There are actually people in the lower realm who can cultivate this secret technique! Hahahaha, God will not abandon me! It’s worth it that I’ve been struggling here for so many years…”
The laughter was not loud and a little unclear at first, but then it gradually became clearer and crazier, making people shiver when they heard it!
After a moment of silence, the figure laughed vaguely and deeply:
"They should all be here for the Mother of the Stem Borer. I wonder if their purpose is just to repair the seal here, or if they want to completely solve the problem of the Mother of the Stem Borer?"
"That woman's aura is familiar. She must be the demon who was guarding this place before. The auras of the other two people are out of tune with her. They are probably powerful people from the nearby realms!"
"These three are all very strong, and one of them even makes me feel a little threatened!"
"Perhaps, with the help of these three people, there will be an opportunity to solve the problem here once and for all. It seems that I have to add fuel to the fire!"
"However, if we do this, we will have to use that thing, which is too risky. If we lose it, we will no longer be able to control her..."
The low voice slowly disappeared, and the dark figure seemed to be in hesitation and indecision.
At this moment, the smoke from the sandalwood lit by Baohua floated suddenly and flew directly to this mysterious place deep in the underground palace.
The blurred figure was stimulated by the sandalwood and suddenly seemed to understand something: "Forget it, even if I don't use that thing, I won't be able to control her when she recovers!"
"It all depends on this one move, let's take the gamble!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of light suddenly lit up in the dark space, and then a force seemed to burst out from it.
“Boom!”
The entire underground world suddenly began to shake, as if it was shaken by some huge force, and the earth was shaking.
"What's going on?" Baohua exclaimed, opened her eyes and looked around in disbelief.
Han Li's expression also changed suddenly. The uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense, and his face gradually became gloomy.
He began to wonder if there was some conspiracy in this place. Ever since the strange gaze he had sensed before, he felt that something was wrong.
Could it be that the mother of the borers has completely escaped and set a trap for us?
Han Li was suddenly startled and had this thought.
He raised his head and looked at Senior Brother Ye, and found that his expression was still as calm as usual, as if he didn't care at all about the sudden change.
Senior Brother Ye knows the source of this strange incident?
This thought suddenly popped up in Han Li's mind.
Faced with such a notorious existence as the Mother of Stem Borers, even after arriving in this underground palace, he was able to remain calm and composed.
This is either because his strength has reached the point where he does not take the Mother of Stem Borers seriously at all and thinks he can handle everything.
Or you have some inside knowledge and know the root causes of these changes, so you are not surprised when changes happen.
Obviously, there is no one in this world who can completely ignore the mother of borers.
Then Ye Changsheng was most likely the latter. For a moment, Han Li once again felt that his senior brother was too unfathomable.
When the three people in the cave had different expressions because of the sudden change, an ancient lamp suddenly appeared in the extremely hidden area deep in the underground palace.
The faint light illuminated the environment here. Tall stone pillars with ancient styles rose up from the ground one after another. They were so densely packed that they formed a huge and extremely strange stone forest.
Looking down from above, these tall stone pillars formed a strange square formation, and in the center of the formation, there were eight bronze pillars that were different from ordinary stone pillars.
These eight bronze pillars are not only rusty, but also have some unknown mysterious ancient texts engraved on their surfaces. At the top of each pillar there is a spherical light curtain that flashes continuously.
In the light curtain, each of the lamps had a blood-red ancient lamp. Among these ancient lamps, except for one that was still flashing a faint yellow flame, the other seven were cold and it seemed that they had been extinguished for who knows how many years.
What is strange is that in the center surrounded by eight bronze pillars, there is a blood-red altar more than ten meters high, on which is enshrined an ink-black bowl with black air wrapped around its surface, giving people an extremely eerie feeling.
A low, sinister laugh came from the bowl!
Then, the bowl moved, and a ball of gray-white mist the size of a fingernail flew out and disappeared in a flash.
Suddenly, a ball of rolling gray-white mist appeared in the cave. After a while of twisting and changing, a human face vaguely formed.
A solemn look suddenly appeared on Baohua's face. The spirit of the formation appeared, and she quickly opened her mouth and uttered some strange words.
And soon, the lips of that blurry gray and misty face moved silently, as if telling her something.
After the two talked for a while, the gray-white misty face suddenly dissipated and disappeared, and Baohua's expression became more solemn.
"The power of the ancient seal is out of control! The seal that suppresses the Mother of Stem Borers has lost nearly half of its power in an instant. Now the Mother of Stem Borers is about to wake up!" Baohua turned around with a pale face and said.
This was the information she had just received from the spirit of the formation. The inexplicable vibration just now came from this.
"With so much power lost at once, this ancient seal can't be maintained any longer. The entire underground palace may be about to collapse." Baohua said with a sigh.
Han Li frowned. Hearing this, the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became even stronger. He always felt like there was some conspiracy here.
Looking at Senior Brother Ye again, he was looking up, as if he was thinking about something.
So Han Li couldn't help but ask: "Didn't the spirit of the formation say why the seal went out of control?"
"It didn't know what was going on, but it felt as if all its strength had been drained away by something."
"However, it is willing to move us directly to the place where the mother of the borer is sleeping, so that we can severely damage the mother of the borer before she wakes up." Baohua shook her head and said.
Han Li's expression darkened when he heard that. Did he really have to go directly to fight the Mother of Stem Borers?
"In that case, let's go. Anyway, we came here this time to fight this ferocious insect!" Ye Changsheng suddenly said.
