Chapter 485
Fu Shaoping had just packed up the corpse of the Ghost King and was about to leave the ruined hall when he suddenly sensed a strong spiritual power fluctuation. He looked in the direction of the spiritual power fluctuation and saw a spiritual flower growing in a corner of the hall.
This spiritual flower exudes a soft and dazzling light, and its petals present six brilliant colors. Each petal seems to be condensed from the purest spiritual power. Fu Shaoping was delighted. He recognized that this was an extremely rare sixth-level spiritual flower, and it was a spiritual plant that could improve the cultivation of the spirit.
He slowly approached the spiritual flower, his heart full of amazement. The space around the spiritual flower seemed to be affected by its spiritual power, and the air became spiritual. Fu Shaoping knew that a spiritual flower of this level must have its own unique protection mechanism. He carefully observed the environment around the spiritual flower and found some faint runes on the ground. These runes emitted a faint light, which echoed with the spiritual power of the spiritual flower.
Fu Shaoping stopped a few steps away from the spiritual flower. He did not dare to approach rashly. He began to think about how to obtain the spiritual flower safely. He was struggling in his heart. On the one hand, the spiritual flower was a huge temptation for his cultivation; on the other hand, he was also worried that the spiritual flower might bring unknown dangers.
He decided to try to decipher the mystery of these runes first. He squatted down and carefully studied the shape and arrangement of the runes. These runes looked ancient and mysterious. Fu Shaoping mobilized his accumulated knowledge of runes and tried to decipher them. After some hard thinking, he found that these runes were an ancient defensive formation designed to protect the spirit flowers from the outside world.
Fu Shaoping began to try to crack the formation. He took out some spiritual stones from the storage space. These spiritual stones were collected during his previous training. According to his understanding of the formation, he placed the spiritual stones at the key nodes of the formation, trying to disrupt the operation of the formation. As the spiritual stones were placed, the light of the formation began to flicker, and the runes became somewhat disordered.
Just when Fu Shaoping thought he was about to successfully break the formation, suddenly, a beam of light shot out from the stamen of the spiritual flower, and this light shot directly towards Fu Shaoping. Fu Shaoping was startled, and he quickly dodged sideways. The light flew past the corner of his clothes and hit the stone pillar behind him, instantly creating a big hole in the stone pillar.
Fu Shaoping realized that the defense of this spiritual flower was stronger than he thought. He took a deep breath and decided to use a special spiritual power detection technique. He formed seals with his hands, chanted a spell, and slowly probed his spiritual power towards the spiritual flower. His spiritual power carefully bypassed the rune formation and penetrated towards the root of the spiritual flower.
Through spiritual power detection, Fu Shaoping discovered that the root of this spiritual flower was connected to a spiritual power source under the hall. This spiritual power source continuously provided energy to the spiritual flower and also enhanced its defense ability. Fu Shaoping thought that if he could cut off the connection between the spiritual flower and the spiritual power source, he might be able to successfully obtain the spiritual flower.
He began to look for the entrance to the spiritual power source. After a careful search, he found that the entrance to the spiritual power source was under a floor tile next to the spiritual flower. Fu Shaoping carefully moved the floor tile, and a hole emitting powerful spiritual power appeared in front of him. He saw a spiritual power chain in the hole, which tightly connected the spiritual flower to the spiritual power source.
Fu Shaoping took out the Star Scimitar again and injected his spiritual power into it. He silently said in his heart: "Scimitar, scimitar, today it is up to you to cut off this spiritual power chain." He held the scimitar tightly and chopped at the spiritual power chain. The scimitar and the spiritual power chain collided with each other, emitting a dazzling light. The spiritual power chain was very tough. Fu Shaoping swung the scimitar again and again, and each swing consumed his little remaining spiritual power.
After a hard fight, the spiritual power chain was finally cut off. The rune formation around the spiritual flower instantly lost its light, and its defensive ability was greatly weakened. Fu Shaoping breathed a sigh of relief, and he slowly walked towards the spiritual flower. When he reached out and touched the spiritual flower, a strong spiritual power surged into his body. He quickly circulated his spiritual power, guiding it to flow through his body and slowly absorbing it.
Fu Shaoping knew that the spiritual power of this spiritual flower was too strong to be absorbed all at once. He took out a special jade bottle from the storage space, which was specially used to preserve spiritual plants. He carefully pulled up the spiritual flower by the roots and put it into the jade bottle. He put several seals on the jade bottle to ensure that the spiritual power of the spiritual flower would not leak out.
Fu Shaoping put the jade bottle into the storage space, his face filled with a joyful smile. The acquisition of this sixth-level spiritual flower will greatly improve his progress on the road to spiritual transformation. He looked around the ruined hall again, then turned and walked out of the hall.
After Fu Shaoping had collected the spiritual flowers in the ruined hall, he was about to leave this mysterious and dangerous place. Suddenly, he heard a fierce fight. He was startled and quickly rushed in the direction of the sound.
When he arrived, he saw a female cultivator trapped by three transformed ghost kings. The female cultivator was graceful and dressed in white, which was particularly eye-catching in the yin-filled environment. She was Nangong Wan. At this time, Nangong Wan's face was slightly pale, and she was holding a sword emitting blue light in her hand. The light of the sword seemed a little weak under the suppression of the ghost king's yin energy. Her hair was a little messy, and her forehead was full of sweat. It was obvious that she had been fighting with the three ghost kings for a long time.
The three transformed ghost kings had different appearances. One of them was huge, with a strong stench all over its body. Its arms were strong and powerful, and every time it waved, it brought up a black whirlwind of Yin Qi; another ghost king was thin, but very fast, with green light flashing in his eyes, as if two ghost fires were jumping; and another ghost king had huge bone wings on his back, which were engraved with runes, and every time he flapped his wings, he would release black lightning.
Nangong Wan saw Fu Shaoping appear, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, she shouted: "Daoyou, save me! If you can help me out of this difficulty, there will be a big reward later!" Fu Shaoping looked at the scene in front of him, and he knew how powerful the three ghost kings were, but how could he stand by and watch them die. He responded loudly: "Daoyou Nangong, don't panic, I'll help you!" Fu Shaoping first performed the Daluo Vajra Seal. He stood firmly with his feet, as if rooted in the earth, and silently chanted the formula in his heart: "The power of Vajra, gather in my hands. The seal method is natural, breaking evil and removing filth." His spiritual power began to rush through the meridians in his body, like a turbulent river converging towards his hands. His hands quickly formed seals, and spiritual power flashed between his fingers, and every movement was accurate. As the formula deepened, a golden mark gradually formed between his hands. This mark was only the size of the palm at first, but as the spiritual power continued to be injected, it expanded rapidly, and the light became more and more dazzling. The golden light dispelled some of the negative energy around, and the surrounding space seemed to be illuminated by this light.
The huge ghost king saw Fu Shaoping performing the Daluo Vajra Seal and roared. It waved its thick arms and rushed towards Fu Shaoping. As its arms waved, the black Yin Qi cyclone became more violent and swept towards the Daluo Vajra Seal. The golden Daluo Vajra Seal collided with the black Yin Qi cyclone, making a deafening roar. Fu Shaoping's heart tightened. He increased the output of spiritual power and shouted: "The power of Vajra, suppress the evil demon!" The light of the Daluo Vajra Seal instantly increased, suppressing the Yin Qi cyclone abruptly. The huge ghost king was also shocked by this power and took a few steps back.
Nangong Wan felt relieved when she saw Fu Shaoping's extraordinary move. She took the opportunity to cast her own spell "Ice Soul Cold Light Sword". She took a deep breath, concentrated her remaining spiritual power, and chanted a spell: "The power of ice soul, condensed in the sword blade. The cold light flashed, and defeated thousands of enemies." The blue light of the sword in her hand suddenly increased, and a layer of ice-blue spiritual power ice began to condense around the sword. The ice layer spread rapidly, and soon wrapped the sword tightly. The whole sword looked like it was made of ice-blue crystal. She swung the sword and stabbed at the thin and fast ghost king.
The ghost king flashed and disappeared instantly. Nangong Wan was shocked, she knew that the ghost king was extremely fast and elusive. She closed her eyes and tried to feel the flow of Yin energy around her. Suddenly, she felt a Yin energy approaching from behind, she turned around abruptly and stabbed the sword backwards. The skinny ghost king didn't expect Nangong Wan to be able to detect its position, and was unable to dodge, and was stabbed in the shoulder by the sword. The ice-blue spiritual power instantly invaded the ghost king's body, and the ghost king let out a painful scream. Its body began to freeze and its movements became slow.
However, the ghost king with bone wings on his back saw his companion injured and flapped his bone wings angrily. The runes on the bone wings flashed with black light, and black lightning shot towards Nangong Wan. Nangong Wan had just finished using the "Ice Soul Cold Light Sword" and her spiritual power had not yet recovered. She was hit by a black lightning in time to dodge. Her body was knocked out and fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Fu Shaoping saw Nangong Wan injured, and a surge of anger surged in his heart. He quickly summoned twelve Thunder Swords, ready to form the Taiyi Sword Formation. He waved his hands and chanted the formula of the sword formation: "The power of thunder, where the swords gather. The Taiyi Sword Formation, exorcise demons." His spiritual power flew out of his body like a thread, connecting the twelve Thunder Swords. The twelve swords quickly flew around him and arranged in a specific direction. The power of thunder and lightning flashed on each sword, and the thunder and lightning intertwined to form a powerful electric grid.
The ghost king with bone wings on its back saw Fu Shaoping summon the Thunder Sword, and it flapped its bone wings again and flew towards Fu Shaoping. More black lightning was released from its bone wings, and these lightnings shot towards the Taiyi Sword Formation. The black lightning collided with the power of thunder and lightning, and the whole space was shrouded in dazzling light and violent vibrations. Fu Shaoping concentrated on controlling the sword formation, and his inner monologue said: "The power of this ghost king cannot be underestimated, I must go all out." He kept adjusting the position of the Thunder Sword to make the defense of the sword formation more tight.
Nangong Wan struggled to stand up, she knew she couldn't fall down like this. She took out a pill from the storage space and swallowed it. The pill melted in her mouth, and a warm spiritual power spread in her body, and her injuries were slightly relieved. She watched Fu Shaoping fighting fiercely with the ghost king, and her heart was full of gratitude. She decided to cast a spell again to help Fu Shaoping.
She was ready to perform the "Spiritual Wind Dance". She crossed her hands in front of her chest, then slowly raised them upwards, chanting a spell: "The power of the spiritual wind, dancing the universe. Illusions abound, confusing all evil." A slight breeze began to appear around her body, and the breeze gradually became stronger and turned into a gust of wind. Countless phantoms of Nangong Wan appeared in the gust of wind, and these phantoms flew towards the three ghost kings. The phantoms held swords and made various attacking postures.
The three ghost kings were confused by the sudden appearance of the phantom, and their attacks became somewhat chaotic. The huge ghost king waved his arms and attacked the phantom randomly, but it only hit the air; the thin ghost king tried to find the real Nangong Wan, but there were too many phantoms and it was difficult to distinguish them for a while; the ghost king with bone wings kept flapping his bone wings and released black lightning to shoot at the phantom.
Fu Shaoping seized this opportunity and commanded the Taiyi Sword Formation to attack the three ghost kings. Under his command, the twelve Jinglei Swords stabbed at the ghost kings like a group of nimble flying birds. The power of thunder and lightning exploded on the ghost kings, and the ghost kings roared in pain.
However, these three ghost kings were at the level of incarnation after all, and they soon woke up from the illusion. They realized that Fu Shaoping was the biggest threat, so the three ghost kings rushed towards Fu Shaoping at the same time. The huge ghost king led the way in front, and its arms waved again to create a whirlwind of Yin Qi; the skinny ghost king used his speed to go around to the side of Fu Shaoping, ready to launch a sneak attack; the ghost king with bone wings hovered above, ready to give a fatal blow with black lightning at any time.
Fu Shaoping felt a huge pressure, and he knew he had to use a more powerful spell. He decided to cast a combination of the Feitian Fumo Bodyguard and the Mingling Spirit Talisman. He put his hands together above his head and chanted the Feitian Fumo Bodyguard spell: "The power of the flying sky, the power of the devil. Bless me, and I will be invincible." A layer of light gold appeared around his body, and this layer of gold gradually formed a golden armor, which was engraved with runes of the devil.
At the same time, he took out the natal spirit seal from the storage space. He held the natal spirit seal in both hands and chanted the spell of the natal spirit seal: "The power of the natal spirit, the spirit seal is powerful." The natal spirit seal began to emit a strong light, and various mysterious runes appeared in the light. These runes revolved around Fu Shaoping and merged with the golden light of Fei Tian Fu Mo's body protection.
