An old monk and a young monk appeared at the foot of the Black Mountain. Looking at the Black Mountain in front of him, the young monk couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Indeed, the Black Mountain before them was already a veritable demon mountain. Just by standing at the foot of the mountain, one could feel the demonic aura raging. The old monk's eyes were filled with solemnity. They came down the mountain this time to exorcise demons. The demons in the Black Mountain were the most in Liangzhou, so naturally they wanted to explore it, but now it seemed that they had been a little careless.
Just by looking at the demon's power, one can feel that it is unmatched. If it really attacks, I'm afraid the two of them may not be enough to fill the demon's teeth.
But the ambition has been set, and there is no turning back on the task of exorcising demons and monsters.
Forget it, I'd better go into the Black Mountain first and find out the situation. With the Golden Buddha in hand, even if I can't eliminate all the demons in the Black Mountain, I won't be trapped here.
With this thought in mind, the old monk no longer hesitated, "Shifang, let's go in."
Go in!
Shifang's face was full of reluctance. What was he going to do in there? Was he going to feed the demons? He had not practiced Buddhism for a long time, and his current strength was very low.
But the master has given the order, so how can a disciple disobey? Alas, last time he said he was going to Lanruo Temple to subdue the demon. Fortunately, the tree demon has been eliminated. I heard that its strength is very strong. If he really encounters it, the master may not be in trouble, but he will be in trouble. He will die if he is hit.
The old monk had already walked towards the mountain, and the young monk did not dare to delay.
Looking at the Black Mountain in the distance, Jiale just remembered that Nie Xiaoqian seemed to be still imprisoned in the evil-suppressing coffin. It had been a long time and he almost forgot about Nie Xiaoqian.
The Black Mountain Old Demon must have some relationship with the Yinyue Dynasty, otherwise, he would not have agreed to the marriage proposal from the tree demon grandmother with a ghost general. He must have known Nie Xiaoqian's identity. The Black Mountain Old Demon came from the underworld, and his connections are not comparable to those of the demons in the human world, so it is normal for him to have more information.
"Master, this demon is not simple. I have been in Liangzhou for a while, but I didn't know there was such a place in Liangzhou."
Wansheng looked at the black mountain in front of him with a strange expression, and then he realized the gap between the world of cultivation and the world of ordinary people.
In fact, the Black Mountain is not visible to the world, and only the cultivators in the spiritual world know of its existence. It is built at the intersection of the underworld and the world of the living, and ordinary people cannot find it at all. If it were not for Jia Le's spell, even Wansheng passing by would not be able to discover that there is a Black Mountain in such a large place.
The demon was so heavy before that it even blocked the sun, preventing it from shining down.
Although Black Mountain is located in Liangzhou, its existence is like a spaceship, sandwiched between yin and yang. Although it is a mountain, its area is no smaller than Liangzhou. In the eyes of the God Tongyou, demons and monsters gather in Black Mountain, which is like an ordinary person's city, and these demons and monsters live like ordinary people.
Not only demons and monsters, but also humans.
Moreover, the human race has the largest number in Black Mountain. In 360 cities, the human race is kept in captivity like livestock.
Can you imagine that there is such a place, where people's hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, heads, etc. are used as currency, people are cooked in the pots of restaurants, and people are walked around like pets on the streets...
It is not an exaggeration to say that this scene is hell on earth, but it really exists in the Black Mountains.
Even though Jiale had been practicing for so many years, he couldn't help but feel hot when he saw this scene, and he had the urge to destroy the Black Mountain directly.
call!
After taking a deep breath, Jiale saw Zen Master Baiyun and Shifang. He knew that with the strength of these two, it would not take long before they would be discovered by the Black Mountain Demon.
Zen Master Baiyun also has the strength of Hedao realm, but is slightly weaker than Jiale. He is only in the initial stage of Hedao realm. The young monk Shifang can be ignored.
These two are truly kind-hearted monks. Once they enter the Black Mountain, they will definitely see the scene that is like hell on earth and then take action.
The golden Buddha in Zen Master Baiyun's hand is extraordinary, and perhaps it can fight against the Black Mountain Demon.
"Tengu, Xiaohong, you enter the Black Mountain formation and be careful."
There are as many as millions of demons in the Black Mountain. If no formation is set up, it would be exhausting just to kill them. What's more, we have to prevent these demons from escaping and eradicate all evil. None of the demons here are innocent. Jia Le is preparing to set up the Ten Thousand Thunder Formation. With Jia Le's current strength, he can make the Thunder God descend to the world wherever he wants without hurting ordinary people.
However, Black Mountain is too large, and it is not enough to just set up formations on the periphery. It is also necessary to deploy them at several important nodes within Black Mountain.
Fortunately, Jia Le has a lot of spiritual beasts on his body. Xiao Hong and Tian Gou have both reached the middle stage of the Demon Lord Realm. After entering Black Mountain, few people can discover them except the Black Mountain Old Demon. As long as they are careful, it is not difficult to set up a formation.
Jiale gave the formation materials and the purple thunder hammer to Tengu and Xiaohong.
The Purple Thunder Hammer is the key. Using the Purple Thunder Hammer as the core of the formation is enough to increase the power of the Ten Thousand Thunders Formation by more than ten times.
Xiao Hong and Tengu took the order and left. The seven fire crows and the angry chicken also started to work on the periphery. It was not the first time that Jia Le arranged them to set up the formation, and now they are quite familiar with it.
"Master, look."
At this moment, a female cultivator walked past them and quietly moved towards the Black Mountain. Her strength was only at the Spirit Refining Realm.
This is enough of life!
Jiale was also surprised to see that Black Mountain was little known among ordinary people, but it was not a rare thing among cultivators, especially those who had reached the realm of refining spirit. There were few who did not know about the existence of Black Mountain. Even a monk at the realm of unity with the Tao like Zen Master Baiyun had to think twice before entering Black Mountain. Now, this little girl dared to enter Black Mountain with her cultivation level of refining spirit. It was amazing.
So, it's worth a look.
Kunlun Mountain, true disciple!
Isn't it said that Kunlun Mountain is the most low-key among all Taoist sects? People usually practice in seclusion in the mountains and basically never leave. How come in the past few years, Jiale has met the most people from Kunlun Mountain, such as Yan Chixia, Zhiqiu Yiye and the female cultivator in front of him. But what's the matter with this female cultivator?
Think about it again.
Sima Hongye!
Jiale was also slightly startled. It seemed familiar to them. They seemed to be the lovers from seven lifetimes.
Although the demons have only been in the world of Liao Zhai for a short time, they can see through people's hearts very clearly. They know that although the human race is strong and there are countless immortals and gods, even they cannot take over the world of Liao Zhai. But it is also impossible to make them be suppressed willingly.
So they created the so-called seven lives of enemies and seven lives of lovers, hoping to use the love in the world to control people's hearts and gain the greatest power to help the Demon Lord break through the barrier set up by the heaven and earth and come back to the world.
From the memories of the three demons in the Demon Subduing Tower, Jiale learned a lot of things. Among the demons, the most powerful one was not the demon leaders, but the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord has been sealed in a star by the immortals and gods of the two worlds of heaven and earth. Among them are quite a few high-ranking demons. Above the demon commanders, there are also the Four Heavenly Demons. They are all in that star at this moment. Unlike the Demon Subduing Tower, where the sealing power weakens with the passage of time, that star gathers the essence of the sun and the moon. If nothing unexpected happens, the Demon Lord and the Four Heavenly Demons will have no chance of coming out.
Because the devil is sealed in that star, it is also called the Devil Star.
And these seven lifetimes of resentful lovers and seven lifetimes of lovers were created by the Demon Lord. He wanted to arrange the overall situation and use the knot of love to gather the deepest resentment in the world, in order to form the image of the Heavenly Demon rushing against the Seven Evils and break the seal set by a group of immortals and gods on the Heavenly Demon Star.
But what is Sima Hongye doing in Montenegro?
Divination is not omnipotent. Out of curiosity, Jiale left a trace of his divine consciousness on Sima Hongye, ready to see what would happen next.
It was not Jiale's style to get involved in danger, and even if he was curious, he would not really follow.
Inside Montenegro.
A black stone fell into a spring. It seemed that there was some pure energy in the spring. The black mountain seemed to have become a spirit and was absorbing the energy in it. Its breath was also fluctuating. There was no need to think too much, it must be a stone spirit.
Zen Master Baiyun was a man of great Taoism. After entering Black Mountain, he captured two demon kings, asked for the location of the Black Mountain Old Demon, and headed towards the center of Black Mountain.
However, as the place where the Black Mountain Old Demon practices, this is the forbidden area of ​​the entire Black Mountain. No one can enter without the Black Mountain Old Demon's permission. There are countless monsters and demons guarding the periphery. The leader is the Black Mountain Old Demon's right-hand man Yin Lei, who is very powerful and is not inferior to Zen Master Baiyun.
Feeling the evil aura in the Black Mountain Cave, Zen Master Baiyun hesitated. He sensed a similar presence in it.
Could it be the Black Mountain Demon?
Zen Master Baiyun guessed that the Black Mountain Old Demon was a low-key demon and rarely left Black Mountain. People in the cultivation world only guessed that he had the strength of the late Demon Lord Realm or above. No one knew how powerful he was. Before Jia Le had seen the Black Mountain Old Demon, he had only guessed. At this time, Zen Master Baiyun saw a being with the strength equivalent to the middle stage of the Hedao Realm, so he thought it was the Black Mountain Old Demon himself.
After quickly estimating the difference in power between the enemy and us, Zen Master Baiyun finally felt that he should have a chance to win.
After all, his strength is similar to that of the Black Mountain Old Demon in front of him. He also has the Golden Buddha in his hand. With the help of the power of the Golden Buddha, he can exert the strength of the late or even peak Hedao realm. It will not be difficult to defeat the Black Mountain Old Demon at that time.
It’s just that the other monsters and demons are a bit troublesome. Once the battle starts, he can’t take care of Shifang anymore. He’s afraid that he will be swallowed by the other monsters and demons.
Thinking of this, Zen Master Baiyun also had an idea.
“Shifang, the Black Mountain Demon’s lair is ahead. I will go there by myself. You wait here. If something goes wrong, just run away. Don’t act impulsively. Your current strength is still a little low. Give me the Golden Buddha first.”
What!
Seeing that his master was going to break into the devil's cave alone, Shifang couldn't help but worry.
"Master, it looks so scary in there. Why don't we invite other disciples to come with us? It's too dangerous for you to go in alone."
Zen Master Baiyun shook his head when he heard this. Baiyun Temple was originally one of the top immortal sects in Liangzhou. However, decades ago, his senior brother led his disciples into the Black Mountain to eliminate monsters, but never returned. However, the immortal lamps in the temple have not been extinguished for decades, which means that his senior brother is still alive.
Over the years, he took Shifang to the mountains to subdue demons and eliminate monsters, just to find his senior brother. Zen Master Baiyun did not tell Shifang about this matter, but they have searched everywhere they could and still couldn't find him. They thought their senior brother had escaped, but now it seems that the worst has happened. They are afraid that their senior brother has been captured by the Black Mountain Old Demon, and may be imprisoned somewhere now.
After entering Black Mountain, Zen Master Baiyun did not feel the breath of his senior brother. After thinking about it, he could only capture the Black Mountain Old Monster and then ask for details.
Zen Master Baiyun is determined to win this time. As for inviting his fellow disciples, do you think Zen Master Baiyun has not done it before? It’s just that Xiao Leiyin Temple did not agree. Zen Master Baiyun really couldn’t understand why Xiao Leiyin Temple would ignore the evil cave like Black Mountain which is located in Liangzhou. He has already lost hope in other temples. Now that the Black Mountain old monster is right in front of him, it is worth taking some risks.
"Don't worry, I know what I am doing. Just remember what I said."
After settling things down, Zen Master Baiyun didn't delay any longer and headed towards the Black Mountain Cave with the golden Buddha and Zen staff in his hands.
Shifang's eyes were filled with worry, yet he felt powerless. At this moment, he also hated himself for having such a low level of cultivation that he could not help his master.
Tengu and Xiaohong were also quick in their movements, having already arranged formation flags in other places in the Black Mountain. Now the only thing missing was the most critical place, which was the center of the formation. As long as they placed the Purple Thunder Hammer in the Black Mountain Cave as Jiale had instructed, the mission would be accomplished.
Feeling the power of the monsters in the Black Mountain Cave, Tiangou and Xiaohong did not dare to move rashly. They just looked for an opportunity. When they saw Zen Master Baiyun actually going directly to the Black Mountain Cave, their eyes lit up. Looking at Zen Master Baiyun's aggressive look, they knew that he was not going there to drink and eat. It would probably not be long before a fight broke out. At that time, they could take advantage of the chaos to place the Purple Thunder Hammer.
Sima Hongye also entered Montenegro smoothly.
Sima Hongye had a lot of luck. Although his strength was a little low, with the help of his luck, he was able to penetrate deep into the Black Mountain without much hindrance.
She came this time to get a sword.
From what her master taught her, Sima Hongye knew that there was a rare magic sword in the Black Mountain. After she came down the mountain and returned home, she heard her mother talking about the coming of a catastrophe and fearing that something big might happen, so she took the opportunity to ask her mother about the origin of the magic sword. Knowing that the magic sword might be able to defeat the Supreme Demon Sword of the Yinyue Dynasty, Yi Xijian, she decided to go to the Black Mountain to get the magic sword.
"Fate comes and goes. You and the spirit sword are destined to be together. Just follow your heart and look for it."
This was said by a master from the mountain gate. After entering Black Mountain, Sima Hongye seemed to be pulled by something and actually arrived at the Black Mountain cave.
But just when Sima Hongye was thinking about how to sneak in, the situation in front of him suddenly changed.
"Who dares to trespass into the Black Mountain forbidden area?"
Discovered!
Sima Hongye's heart trembled, and he was about to take action, but he found that a golden light had already appeared in the Black Mountain Cave.
Sima Hongye is a disciple of Kunlun. He has good eyesight and can tell at a glance that this is a Buddhist master who is comparable to his master, and who is using Buddhist magical powers to fight.
It turned out that she was not discovered.
Sima Hongye breathed a sigh of relief after she found out that it was not a demon that discovered her. However, she felt a little puzzled at this moment. Which master had sneaked into Black Mountain? Could it be the master of Xiao Leiyin Temple?
The representatives of Liangzhou Buddhism and Taoism are Xiao Leiyin Temple and Kunlun Mountain. The master in front of him has the cultivation level of Hedao realm, so Sima Hongye naturally thought of Xiao Leiyin Temple.
"Old Demon of Black Mountain, Baiyun from Baiyun Temple is here to subdue you today!"
Zen Master Baiyun had not expected that he would be discovered as soon as he stepped into the Black Mountain Cave. In that case, there was no need to hide any longer. He simply revealed his identity and used his magical powers to attack the Black Mountain Old Monster. He did not even ask where his senior brother was. This kind of proactive giving away of one's identity is not something a smart person would do.
Yin Lei on the opposite side was also stunned when he heard this. Did he think it was the boss?
Such a stupid monk actually dared to cause trouble for them. He was simply seeking death.
"Hmph, what Baiyun Temple? If it was the Little Leiyin Temple, I could still give it a try. But with your eyes, you can't even tell who you are facing. How dare you enter Black Mountain alone? You are ignorant, prepare to die!"
What's the meaning!
Zen Master Baiyun was stunned when he heard this, and felt something was wrong in his heart, but Yin Lei had already taken action as soon as he finished speaking. As his name suggests, Yin Lei's best skill is thunder. However, unlike the Yang Lei in the hands of cultivators, Yin Lei is formed by the gathering of Yin Qi, and is more sinister and cunning than the grand Yang Lei.
boom!
When the thunder descended, Zen Master Baiyun did not dare to think any more and hurriedly took up his staff to deal with it. The other demons and monsters guarding the Black Mountain had already surrounded Zen Master Baiyun and were obviously not going to let him leave.
Outside Black Mountain, Jiale saw this scene with the help of Sima Hongye's vision and couldn't help but be speechless.
Zen Master Baiyun, you are so confused that you can even admit your mistake.
When the battle started, Zen Master Baiyun and Yin Lei were equally powerful, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while.
"Chance!"
Tengu, Xiaohong and Sima Hongye saw that the battle had begun and all the demons guarding the Black Mountain Cave had been attracted over. They basically said something in secret and headed towards the Black Mountain Cave.
Tengu and Xiaohong also noticed Sima Hongye, but Sima Hongye's cultivation was too low, so they didn't care. What was important was to complete Jiale's mission.
After entering the Black Mountain Cave, they realized that there was another world inside.
Under the cover of demonic energy, there are actually magnificent palaces. It is obvious that this Black Mountain Old Demon also knows how to enjoy life.
There are much fewer monsters in the Black Mountain Cave, just some female monsters and ghosts. It is obvious that the old Black Mountain monster is quite knowledgeable about the method of dual cultivation.
This cave is also his harem.
However, these Heavenly Dogs and Xiao Hong didn't care and went straight to the back of the cave.
Although there are many demons and monsters in the Black Mountain, there are not many that have reached the level of Hedao. Among the female demons and ghosts in the Black Mountain cave, only one has reached the level of Hedao. However, her strength is not as good as that of Tengu and Xiaohong, so they are still able to hide from them. Therefore, they have a smooth journey.
Um!
A valley appeared in front of Tiangou and Xiaohong. The demonic energy in it was so strong that it made them a little frightened.
At the opening of the valley, there was a black shadow standing there. Judging from its aura, it was not inferior to theirs. It was obvious that this was not an ordinary place. It was guarded by a master arranged by the Black Mountain Demon.
"I haven't sensed the Black Mountain Old Demon's presence along the way. Could it be in here?"
Tengu murmured, and Xiaohong nodded. Their destination was this valley, which was the core of the entire Black Mountain. Only by placing the Purple Thunder Hammer here could the Ten Thousand Thunder Array exert its greatest effect.
"How about we wait a little longer? The Baiyun Zen Master's subordinates are quite powerful, and perhaps they have some powerful magical powers. If we can lure away the guy guarding the valley, it will be easy to deal with."
They were setting up a formation, and if they were discovered, it would be troublesome. Tengu nodded when he heard this.
However, at this moment, a charming voice was heard from behind.
"What a pretty little sister! Why are you here? Barging in is not a good habit."
Tiangou and Xiaohong looked back and found that it was Sima Hongye who was discovered by the evil spirit. They were not surprised. With his cultivation in the Spirit Refining Realm, it was already amazing that Sima Hongye could get all the way here.
When Sima Hongye heard the voice, his face changed. He drew his sword and looked around alertly.
She saw a charming woman wearing less than two pieces of cloth appear in front of her. Her heart was pounding. Demon Lord, it must be the Demon Lord!
There are many demons suppressed in Kunlun Mountain. By comparing their auras, you can tell that the demon in front of you is not simple.
Without any hesitation, she turned around and ran. She knew she would definitely not be able to win in a fight. Although she had heard before that Black Mountain was a devil's den, she never imagined that there were so many powerful monsters in Black Mountain.
When the demon saw Sima Hongye running away without saying a word, she smiled coquettishly, swung her red sleeves, and reached out to grab Sima Hongye.
Outside Montenegro.
Jia Le looked at the two new people and couldn't help but laugh. Could it be that today was a good day to exorcise demons? He came to kill the Black Mountain Demon, and so many people came to join in the fun.
"Oh no, Hongye is in danger, let's go."
The bearded Yan Chixia sensed that Sima Hongye was in danger, and his face changed. He hurriedly gave instructions to Zhuge Liuyun beside him, and quickly ran towards the Black Mountain.
It was said that Jiale had not seen Yan Chixia since the tree demon grandma in Lanruo Temple. Now he met her here. It seemed that she came for Sima Hongye.
What interested Jiale even more was Yan Chixia's cultivation level. He had actually reached the Hedao realm. This was a bit outrageous. When he first met him, he was only at the Fanxu realm. His progress was quite fast.
Sima Hongye seemed to be the daughter of Yan Chixia and Sima Sanniang, but Jiale was not sure if there was something wrong with the plot. The origin Yan Chixia explained was not like this. Now looking at Yan Chixia's fortune, Jiale understood a little bit.
Different from the fortune he saw when he first met Yan Chixia, Yan Chixia at this time actually had two destinies.
I heard that there is a martial art in Kunlun Mountain called: Three Lives Fate!
This technique can allow cultivators to forget their past and restart their lives when they are in a bottleneck period, which is similar to reincarnation. However, this technique does not have the function of the six reincarnations. It can only allow cultivators to transform from immortals to mortals and practice again. On the one hand, it can accumulate more. The difficulty of breaking through a bottleneck with two accumulations is naturally different.
Of course, this technique is mainly prepared for those cultivators who are troubled by inner demons. The biggest bottleneck in the cultivation process is the inner demons. If the inner demons are not eliminated, it is simply a dream to want to improve the cultivation. However, the inner demons are not so easy to eliminate. Once most cultivators have inner demons and form entanglements, they are basically useless.
The Three Lives Destiny can allow cultivators to forget their past and start practicing again, and their inner demons can also be forgotten. After breaking through the bottleneck after practicing again, their memories will return to themselves. If one practices the Three Lives Destiny twice, a total of three lifetimes, one can eliminate the inner demons. This is one of the mountain-guarding techniques of Kunlun Mountain, and it is very magical. In the cultivation world, many cultivators are envious of it.
Compared with the danger of starting over, the nightmare of a cultivator is when their cultivation stagnates and they cannot make any progress.
Yan Chixia should have practiced the Three Lives Destiny.
Yan Chixia from Xuanxin Sect! Yan Chixia from Lanruo Temple! Are they the same person? In other words, Yan Chixia really has a wife, Sima Sanniang, and a daughter, Sima Hongye?
This makes sense.
He is so anxious now, probably because he knows that Sima Hongye has entered Black Mountain and came to rescue people.
There is something interesting to watch. Yan Chixia has reached the peak of the Hedao realm, which is not much different from the Black Mountain Old Demon. If the Black Mountain Old Demon did not have too many strange features, Jiale might really be able to pick up the bargain.
However, things will not develop so smoothly. According to his divination, the Black Mountain Old Demon might have some hidden card, which is much stronger than the average peak of the Hedao realm.
"Arhat Seal!"
