Volume 2: World of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio Chapter 58 Black Mountain is me, I am Black Mountain
Under such an infusion of thunder, the black clouds finally became silent.
But this is not the end yet. A tentacle stretched out from the ground and directly dragged the black cloud away. In the blink of an eye, there was no trace left. Looking closely, the monsters and demons in the Black Mountain had their bodies basically dragged away by these tentacles after death.
"No!"
When Bai Yun saw this scene, he couldn't help but shout in despair.
But no one cared about him at this time. Yan Chixia was also a little surprised at this time. Although he didn't know who took action, this time the action really saved his life.
Seeing that the Black Mountain Old Demon was as embarrassed as he was when he was being chased just now, Yan Chixia was even more delighted, thinking that things would change.
Noticing that under the thunder formation, the targets of the thunder were all demons and monsters. Not only were they not threatened at all, even the ordinary people in the Black Mountain were not affected. Yan Chixia was amazed at the person who set up the formation. He had high attainments in formation and strong control of his soul. At the same time, he was basically certain that the person who set up the formation must be a Taoist like him.
Buddhism emphasizes laying down the butcher knife and becoming a Buddha instantly, but it will not kill demons and monsters like this. Maybe it even wants to subdue them.
It's not just Jiale who has no feelings towards Buddhism, Yan Chixia is even more so. In fact, it's true that Buddhism emphasizes fate when accepting disciples. The so-called fate can actually be the three views.
The Black Mountain Old Demon was dealing with the thunder in the sky, and gradually he became able to do it with ease. After all, the Black Mountain Old Demon had a strong foundation, and no one knew what magical power he used at this time, but he could allow the thunder to fill his body without causing much damage, and instead transferred most of the damage to the Black Mountain.
The Black Mountain Old Demon also knew something about formations. He knew that a formation of such a large scale and great power must have its eye buried inside the Black Mountain.
It must be there!
The Black Mountain Old Demon quickly thought of where the eye of the formation might be, and he immediately left Yan Chixia and headed for the Yinshi Youquan.
"The sky and the earth are boundless, the universe borrows the law!"
A loud shout came from behind the Black Mountain Old Demon. Yan Chixia saw that the Black Mountain Old Demon was about to leave. Although he didn't know the Black Mountain Old Demon's purpose, what the Black Mountain Old Demon wanted to do was what he didn't want to see. At this time, the person who set up the formation had not made a move yet, so he naturally had to continue to assist. In short, he must not let the Black Mountain Old Demon succeed.
At this time, Yan Chixia had also recovered a lot of magic power, and he had no pressure at all to cast spells. A huge Tai Chi diagram rose from Yan Chixia's hand and covered the Black Mountain Old Monster.
The Black Mountain Old Demon couldn't help but get angry when he saw this.
"Yan Chixia, I'm kind enough to let you live, but since you don't appreciate it, then prepare to die."
After all, Yan Chixia is a cultivator at the peak of the Hedao realm. If he left his back to Yan Chixia, the Black Mountain Old Demon would definitely not be at ease. What's more, with Yan Chixia blocking him, it would not be easy for him to destroy the eye of the formation. It would only take some time. The Black Mountain Old Demon immediately turned around, ready to kill Yan Chixia before destroying the eye of the formation.
Yan Chixia was not afraid either. He was injured, but the Black Mountain Old Demon was not much better off. There were thunder all over the sky. Although the Black Mountain Old Demon had found a way to deal with it now, he had been hit so many times before and his injuries were not light. Who was afraid of who?
What Yan Chixia can think of, the Black Mountain Old Demon can naturally think of.
The Black Mountain Demon opened his huge mouth while attacking Yan Chixia, and Yan Chixia suddenly felt a pulling of his soul.
Yan Chixia's face changed, as if he had thought of something. Even someone like him who was at the peak of the Hedao realm could feel this feeling of soul being pulled. Then wouldn't the souls of other people or demons and monsters be directly sucked away?
But what was expected did not happen.
The Black Mountain Old Demon was also a little strange. Let alone the soul of Black Mountain, even the soul of the underworld could be absorbed into his stomach to recover from injuries and improve his strength. Now there were countless humans and so many monsters and demons kept in this mountain. In fact, the Black Mountain Old Demon did not care. He asked them to do some chores for him. At the same time, the Black Mountain Old Demon could use them as healing pills in battle.
So, seeing the thunder coming and countless demons and monsters being killed, he did not resist for these subordinates. After all, death would be death, and he could devour their souls better. But this time his magical powers did not work. What was going on?
His divine sense extended to the surroundings, and what he saw almost made the Black Mountain Old Demon drop his jaw in shock.
It has only been a short time, and the entire Black Mountain is almost empty.
There were so many demons and monsters, but now only a few were left. Only the Yin Lei and the Charm Monster were stronger and could barely resist. The others were basically gone. But gone, gone. Where were their bodies? Where were their souls? How could they all disappear?
Suddenly he remembered the tentacle that dragged Heiyun away after his death. At that time, the Black Mountain Old Demon didn't care about it, thinking it was the trick of the person who set up the formation. But now, looking again, the tentacle not only dragged away Heiyun's body, but also dragged away the bodies of other people.
But what about the soul?
Sensing the surroundings, there was not a single soul left.
That's not all. Not only were the souls gone, but even the hundreds of millions of humans were gone. Not a single one was left. He took a quick look and found that the person who set up the formation didn't bombard these humans. What happened? Where did they go?
Jiale looked at the Black Mountain Old Demon and sneered. He didn't expect that the Black Mountain Old Demon had such a magical power. It was really a coincidence. Jiale was not used to cleaning the battlefield after the battle. He always cleaned the battlefield while fighting.
Rouzhi had already been arranged by Jiale in Black Mountain. All the monsters and demons that were killed by lightning were directly dragged into its stomach. If the Black Mountain Old Demon had that strength at this time, he might be able to see some residues in Rouzhi's stomach.
As for the soul, it is even faster.
The Nine Nether Divine Lotus is devouring these demon souls, devil souls, and ghosts all the time. Xiaohong and Wuzhuima are the biggest eaters among them. Even the Evil-Suppressing Coffin needs some demon souls to enhance its power. Although there are many demons and monsters on the Black Mountain, there are not many left after a split.
As for the hundreds of millions of human beings, they had already been included in Jiale's Karma Map. These human beings were always a bit of a hindrance. Whether they were accidentally taken away by thunder or used by demons and monsters, it was not a good thing for Jiale. So soon after the Ten Thousand Thunders Array was activated, Jiale used the Karma Map to directly walk away.
What a coincidence. A few seconds earlier, the Black Mountain Demon might have been able to see some, but now there is not a single one left.
Although he has not actually taken action against the Black Mountain Demon, the results of the battle have actually been almost reaped.
His eyes fell on the charm demon, who was holding Sima Hongye in his hand. Unlike Yin Lei, the charm demon was more thoughtful. While avoiding the thunder, he was retreating outside the Black Mountain. It was obvious that he was ready to abandon the Black Mountain Old Demon, the boss, and move to another mountain to be independent. He felt that Sima Hongye had some value and might be useful, so he took it with him.
But now Jiale has freed up his hands. Mei Yao and Yin Lei are both big pieces of meat and cannot be let go.
Yan Chixia and the Black Mountain Old Demon have fought again. When Yan Chixia saw the Black Mountain Old Demon's look, he knew that he had been defeated and was happy. With the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand, he started to attack directly. The Ten Thousand Swords Technique was still sharp, but the Black Mountain Old Demon seemed to have realized the importance of the matter and had no intention of delaying any longer.
The first attack he made was a killing move, which was even more ferocious than before he was injured. Soon Yan Chixia was in danger again.
"Are you lost?"
Mei Yao would never have thought that one day she would get lost in the Black Mountain, which she was most familiar with. She swore that she was taking the way out of the mountain. If it were any other time, she might have left Liangzhou by now. But today, she didn't even see the edge of the Black Mountain. Until now, she couldn't believe that she was really lost.
Trapped in a maze!
Stop it, that ghost dared to build a wall for her, and then there’s the formation!
Watching the thunder in the sky gradually stagnating, Mei Yao suspected that the person who set up the formation not only set up a thunder formation, but also a trapping formation and an illusion formation. Otherwise, how could she not be able to get out for so long.
Just as the demon was trying hard to figure out how to break the formation, a voice came into her ears from behind, almost scaring her to death.
"Who is it?"
The charm demon suddenly turned around, her whole body on alert. A male cultivator in white clothes as white as snow, with delicate features and a bright look, who looked like a banished immortal, appeared, which made the charm demon's heart drop to the bottom. She knew that the person who appeared at this moment might be the one who set up the formation. No matter how good-looking he was, the charm demon had no appreciation for him.
After confirming with her eyes, she knew that he was someone she couldn't afford to offend. Demons and monsters were actually very good at judging people.
The aura and murderous intent in the breath of someone who has killed countless demons and monsters are all different. Mei Yao knew at the first glance that Jia Le must be someone who has killed countless demons and monsters, and probably quite a few demon lords as well. The most important thing is that she can't tell how deep Jia Le is.
"Well, why aren't you talking? Do you need help?"
Jiale's voice was very soft, and his expression was kind, but Meiyao's face was very ugly. She clearly wanted to force a smile, but now it was uglier than crying.
"No, I can do it myself."
Obviously, she was harboring unfounded fantasies and hoped that Jiale would let her go. Jiale couldn't help but smile, and threw the Demon Subduing Tower out and it fell to the ground.
"That's good. The road is there. Let's go in."
The charmer looked at the Demon Subduing Tower in front of him, and his eyes narrowed, "Spiritual treasure!"
Damn Black Mountain Old Demon, who on earth did you offend? Didn’t we agree that those top immortal sects wouldn’t come to cause trouble? What’s the big deal? They even produced spiritual treasures.
The charm demon was about to cry, cursing the Black Mountain Old Demon in her heart. In her understanding, those who could use spiritual treasures must be the top figures of the top immortal sects, at the very least they had to be the masters of mountains. Now that she met such a figure, how could she, a mere demon in the late stage of the demon lord, be his opponent?
She tightened her hand holding Sima Hongye. She was not stupid. How could she take the initiative to walk into the Demon Subduing Tower? The Demon Subduing Tower did not look like a good place. After entering, who knew whether she would be greeted by a mountain of swords or a sea of fire.
"Don't come over here, let me go, or I will kill her."
There was a glimmer of hope in Mei Yao's eyes, hoping that Jia Le would accept her threat.
Jiale looked at Sima Hongye in Meiyao's hand, and showed some doubt at the right time, "Who is she?"
who is she?
Mei Yao was in a state of collapse, she also wanted to know who the person in her hand was, but before she had the chance to ask, Black Mountain had undergone drastic changes, with all these powerful figures appearing, even now, Mei Yao felt like she was in a dream.
"If you don't leave by yourself, I will take you there."
Jiale's voice sounded a little impatient. Yan Chixia over there could hardly bear it anymore, but there was no time to play.
The demon grabbed Sima Hongye's vital point.
“You dare!”
He shook his head. They were not related at all, so there was nothing to be afraid of. He did not say much to the charm demon. The Demon Subduing Tower moved, directly covering her. The charm demon wanted to kill Sima Hongye and take one with her before leaving. Unfortunately, the moment she was covered by the Demon Subduing Tower, she could no longer move. Looking at the charm demon that had been taken into the Demon Subduing Tower, Jia Le sneered. A demon that was only equivalent to the early stage of the Hedao realm was still easy to deal with.
Not only the demon, but also Sima Hongye was locked up by Jiale. He has no time to take care of her now. He locked her up to protect her. It is so dangerous outside. After all, she is his niece. With Sima Hongye's personality of loving to run around, the Demon Subduing Tower is the safest place.
"die!"
The Black Mountain Old Demon, with supreme demonic power, pressed down towards Yan Chixia. Yan Chixia's face was now as pale as gold paper. Facing the attack from the Black Mountain Old Demon, Yan Chixia even saw his own breasts.
boom!
Fortunately, a sword appeared in time and blocked him.
"Moye Sword! You!"
The Black Mountain Old Demon looked at the sword that appeared in front of him and couldn't help but scream. He knew that it was just as he thought. The person who set up the formation really buried the eye of the formation in the back mountain and took the Moye Sword with him. But how could the person who set up the formation use the Moye Sword? He looked around vigilantly. When the person who set up the formation appeared, the Black Mountain Old Demon was under a lot of pressure. After all, after these consecutive moves, even a fool could see that the person who set up the formation was not simple.
Jiale appeared slowly, took the Moye Sword back into his hand, and nodded with satisfaction. It was indeed a spiritual treasure. Its power was truly incomparable to that of the best magic weapons.
After getting the new equipment, Jiale naturally replaced the Qinghong Sword directly.
Although the Moye Sword was forged by Moye and contains the Moye Sword Soul, it does not mean that it is a female sword that can only be used by female cultivators. Swords are not divided in this way. A sword is a killing weapon, and whoever wields it to kill is the master of the sword.
The Moye Sword is the sword of great love, so demons like the Black Mountain Old Demon naturally cannot use it. But it is the same for Jiale. Jiale's swordsmanship is enough to be recognized by the Moye Sword. What's more, Jiale said that he would help him reunite with Gan Jiang, so there is no reason for Moye not to recognize him as the master.
With the cooperation of the sword spirit Moye, Jiale only needed to refine it a little bit before he could wield the Moye sword as easily as using his own arm.
With the help of the Moye Sword, Jiale's swordsmanship was even more powerful. With just one strike of the sword, he defeated the Black Mountain Demon.
“Brother Sun!”
Yan Chixia looked at Jiale who was slowly appearing and couldn't help but screamed in surprise. He could never have imagined that the person who secretly set up the formation was actually Jiale. This was too unexpected. Although Jiale was also very powerful when they met last time in Lanruo Temple, he had not yet reached the realm of refining emptiness, but was only at the level of refining spirit. Now he has directly reached the realm of unity with the Tao!
Although he has also ascended in cultivation level, he has the cultivation level of two lifetimes combined. How can he be compared with Jia Le? What kind of enchanting talent is this?
He defeated the Black Mountain Demon with one sword. Only the Lord of Kunlun Mountain has such strength.
"Brother Yan, are you all right?"
Yan Chixia's face turned bitter when he heard this. He didn't look like he was fine at first glance. If Jiale hadn't arrived in time, he would have been reincarnated. However, Jiale looked really fine. No one knew what Jiale had eaten over the years to have his cultivation level improved so quickly.
"Brother Sun, you really surprised me."
Brother Sun! Do these two know each other?
The Black Mountain Old Demon looked at the two people and knew that the two must know each other, but he just couldn't figure out how there could be such a person as Jia Le in the world of cultivation. It was said that he had done his homework. In the world of cultivation, almost all the cultivators above the Hedao realm were in his mind. How come he missed one now?
"Who are you? I have no grudge against you, why are you looking for trouble with me? Don't bring disaster to the sect behind you."
The Black Mountain Old Demon spoke quite firmly, and even threatened at this time.
"What a rage, Maoshan Nengchun, I have met the Black Mountain Demon Lord. I came here only to kill you, or to be killed by you."
“Arrogant!”
After hearing Jiale's words, the Black Mountain Demon couldn't help but get furious. He said it lightly, but the contempt in it was already fully revealed. How could the Black Mountain Demon not hear it? Wanting to kill him, isn't that arrogant! Maoshan! No wonder he is so arrogant! No wonder he doesn't take him seriously. He should have thought of it earlier. The one who attacked him so blatantly, except for the madman from Maoshan, no other immortal sect could do such a thing.
No, Nengchun! This number sounds familiar.
Isn't this the master of the Yin Yang vein of Maoshan who killed Heishi? In order to find out the news about Jiale, he asked Mei Yao to spend a lot of effort, and now he saw him here.
"You are Neng Chun! Okay, okay, I haven't even looked for you yet, but you've come to me. Okay, today I want to see whether you kill me or I kill you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Black Mountain Demon had already rushed towards Jiale. His aggressive look clearly showed that he had taken into account both new and old grudges.
Seeing this, Jiale also smiled at Yan Chixia.
"Brother Yan, let me get rid of this demon first, and then we can talk about the past."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Moye Sword was already emitting a flash of light. After the battle with the Third Brother, Jiale's Yin-Yang Sword Art had become even more powerful, so it was a good opportunity to try it out with the Black Mountain Old Demon.
It is also to sharpen the Moye Sword, and Jiale is only one step away from breaking through to the late stage of the Hedao Realm. Perhaps today is the opportunity.
With the Qimen Bagua plus the Yin-Yang swordsmanship, and the support of the Ten Thousand Thunder Array, Jiale's strength has already surpassed the peak of the Hedao realm. Facing the Black Mountain Old Demon, he can only be stronger.
Now the thunder of the Ten Thousand Thunders Array has been concentrated on the Black Mountain Old Demon. Although the Black Mountain Old Demon has a way to deal with it, he is not completely unharmed under such power of thunder. He wanted to get rid of Yan Chixia as soon as possible and break the Ten Thousand Thunders Array, but now it is impossible. Jia Le has obviously come to stop him.
Sure enough, the pressure is enough!
As the battle began, Jiale's eyes became brighter and brighter. The energy beads had already begun to supply Jiale with unlimited energy, helping Jiale to impact the late stage of Hedao realm.
The other side.
Shifang and Zhuge Liuyun had also come out and found Zen Master Baiyun and Yan Chixia respectively to check their injuries.
At this time, Zen Master Baiyun looked at Jiale with a complicated expression. Although Jiale saved him, it was Jiale who ignored his dissuasion and killed his senior brother.
Yin Lei felt more and more uneasy as he watched Jia Le fighting with the Black Mountain Demon and not losing the upper hand.
Lei Ting had already ignored his existence. Yin Lei was not stupid either. He was also ready to avoid his attack. However, just as he moved his feet, he found some terrifying existences appeared in front of him.
Tengu and Xiaohong were in the lead, followed by the Angry Chicken, seven fire crows and the Black Horse, all of them were looking at Yin Lei with smiles on their faces.
"Where do you want to go?"
Tengu!
Ghost Lord!
Phoenix bloodline!
Fire Crow!
Yin Lei's face was gloomy. What kind of combination was this? The most important thing was that Tengu and Xiaohong alone were no weaker than him. Was he really doomed today?
Jiale would naturally not miss any hidden danger, so he directly asked Tengu and the others to handle it.
boom!
The Black Mountain Old Demon retreated quickly and was hit by the Moye Sword in Jiale's hand again. The Black Mountain Old Demon's breath began to decline rapidly.
He looked at Jiale with a gloomy face. Jiale's swordsmanship was really weird. Not only was his defense invincible, but he also integrated many kinds of swordsmanship into it. His attack was actually quite strong, especially the sword that could ignore space and fall directly on him. Now he had been hit by Jiale's sword nine times. The Black Mountain Old Demon tried to break it, but he didn't even know how Jiale did it.
No time to waste!
Until now, Jia Le has been fighting alone with only his sword, and he has never shown his true strength. Even the Black Mountain Old Demon doesn't know if Jia Le has any trump cards. If the fight continues like this, he actually finds that he may be defeated!
No! No way!
The Black Mountain Old Demon is usually good at hiding his strength. Not to mention the world of immortals, even the monsters and demons in the Black Mountain, and even his confidants like Yin Lei and Mei Yao, don't know how strong the Black Mountain Old Demon is and how many magical powers he has. Those who have seen him take action are either in the underworld or still in the underworld. Now, in a short time, he has been forced to reveal most of his strength.
Now we have to use our trump cards.
The entire Black Mountain began to shake violently. The Black Mountain old demon suddenly disappeared. The next moment, the entire Black Mountain seemed to be standing up.
"I am Black Mountain, and Black Mountain is me!"
A muffled sound came from the Black Mountain, and Jia Le's face became a little solemn. It was rumored in the cultivation world that the Black Mountain did not originally exist in Liangzhou, but appeared with the arrival of the Black Mountain Old Monster. Now it is really confirmed. No wonder it is called the Black Mountain Old Monster. This entire Black Mountain is the real body of the Black Mountain Old Monster.
At this time, the Black Mountain Old Demon revealed his true form, and the entire Black Mountain began to move, with its power becoming much stronger.
The sense of oppression given to Jiale was even greater than that given to Taoist Zhenliang. No wonder so many immortal sects were unwilling to conquer Black Mountain. This must be because they understood a little about the details of the Black Mountain old monster.
"retreat!"
Hearing Jiale's words, all the spirit beasts retreated quickly. Yin Lei had already been captured by Tiangou and Xiaohong. At this time, Jiale gave an order, and they followed Jiale to retreat directly out of Black Mountain.
A big mouth like a black hole has opened. If you don’t leave, you will fall into the belly of Black Mountain.
Shifang and Zhuge Liuyun were also shocked, and hurriedly took Zen Master Baiyun and Yan Chixia to retreat with Jiale. However, their strength was too low, and at this moment, the huge black hole-like mouth was already emitting waves of suction, as if it was going to draw them all in.
Jiale threw out the Karma Society Map and directly took the four people into it, then he flashed away.
Outside the Black Mountain, a group of spirit beasts also widened their eyes. Such a huge Black Mountain actually stood up and grew two legs. It could walk, but it was a little clumsy. This was probably the biggest monster they had ever seen.
Jiale took back the purple thunder hammer, and as Black Mountain moved, the formation was destroyed.
Only the forbidden space formation that Jiale had set up before was still preserved because it was not located in Black Mountain.
Boom!
A giant foot stepped down towards Jiale, as if the whole sky was collapsing, and took away all the spirit beasts. Jiale dodged while attacking with the Moye Sword.
However, the attack of the Moye Sword, landing on the Black Mountain Old Demon, was like hitting the hardest object in the world, and it only made it turn slightly white.
Jiale's eyes changed as well. What an abnormal defense! It was obvious that Heishan had been trained to the limit by the Black Mountain Old Demon. This defense was probably not much worse than that of a true immortal.
However, Jiale could also feel that although his defense was strong, the attack of the Moye Sword was not useless.
It's just like fighting a big monster in a game, except that the blood of this Black Mountain Old Demon suddenly became thicker. In this case, just attack hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of times. He has the support of energy beads and enough mana, so he is not afraid of consumption.
boom!
The Moye Sword fell again and again, always in the same place. The Black Mountain Old Demon attacked Jiale regardless, but his body became bigger and his movements were much slower. With the help of the Qimen Bagua, it was not difficult for Jiale to avoid his attacks.
You focus on defense and I focus on agility, but we fight without disturbing each other.
However, the Black Mountain Old Demon was obviously not that simple. Even Jia Le did not notice that he was surrounded by demonic energy and a demon domain was soon formed. The Black Mountain Old Demon was originally a little clumsy in movements due to his huge size, but now that the demon domain was formed, he was able to disappear in an instant and then reappear.
Fortunately, Jiale has the divine eye that can see through the dark, and the Eight Trigrams can also make predictions, so he can barely cope with it.
But now that his weakness of low agility is gone, Jiale's pressure immediately increases. However, high pressure is not without its benefits.
boom!
Late stage of Hedao realm!
The strong pressure made Jiale digest energy faster. After countless rounds of fighting, he finally broke through to the late stage of Hedao Realm as he wished.
"Late stage of Hedao Realm!"
The Black Mountain Old Demon was also stunned by Jiale's breakthrough. He had fought with him for such a long time, but not only did he not run out of mana, he actually broke through. Is this what a cultivator should look like? How come he looks more like a demon than him?
