Chapter 180 Qing Suo
Chapter 180 "Green Rope"
In the northwest mountains of Lost Lake, all the demons were wearing bloody rattan armor and rattan hats. The densely woven rattan armor tightly surrounded their bodies, leaving only their faces and two pairs of hands exposed. However, judging from the exposed faces and hands, the people in the rattan armor were very skinny and without a trace of blood, as if all the blood in their bodies was used to feed the armor.
This is the attire of the Blood Vine Cult.
The vine armor of the Blood Vine Cult's demons is extremely famous in the southern Xinjiang area. It is something similar to a life-saving magic weapon. After these demons join the Blood Vine Cult, they will be given a vine seed, which is planted in their navels, and then the vine seed will take root and sprout. The vine seed is fed with blood, and after the vine grows, it turns into vine armor to protect the whole body. Few people in the same realm can break the armor, and the vine armor can also absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and feed back to the host, so the Blood Vine Cult demons practice very quickly.
The Blood Vine Cult is a demonic cult in the Southern Wilderness. Like the Yinhe Ghost Cult, they were once powerful local tyrants, but now have become Xin Chenzi's lackeys.
However, the Blood Vine Sect is more famous than the Yinhe Ghost Sect, not only because of the Blood Vine's strange practice method, but also because its leader, Blood Vine Grandma Long Youpo, has survived four thunder tribulations. There is also a legend that Blood Vine Grandma is a vine monster in a place where dragons fell, which absorbed the essence of the dragon corpse and obtained the dragon's treasure, making her a person with great hope of reaching the fourth realm.
Long Youpo has lived for many years, so she is called Blood Vine Grandma. Her voice is very old, but her body still retains the appearance of a young girl. She wears a blood-red dress, has a ruddy complexion, and a wreath on her head. She looks only sixteen or seventeen years old, and looks very strange among a group of demons.
Long Youpo was sitting on a vine on the top of the mountain, leisurely as if she was swinging on a swing. She saw Yao Kaijiang being besieged by many people and wanted to save his life, but she was afraid that the righteous would set an ambush, so she said,
"The more worried you are, the more you should go and explore."
"As ordered."
Not far from Long Youpo, a tall man covered in rattan armor leaped off the mountain and flew towards Yao Kaijiang. This man was called Wu Yuechou, a man who had experienced two thunder tribulations. He was Long Youpo's confidant and was second only to the first person in the Blood Vine Sect.
When this person flew over the Lost Lake, a green rainbow came from the north, like a long rope or a roaring thunder.
The green rainbow was so powerful that everyone saw it, and it flew straight into the sky above the Lost Lake.
But now, a group of people were fighting fiercely on the east side of the Lost Lake, the demon on the west side was hiding in the mountains and keeping quiet, and the fog above the Lost Lake was also cleared away by Grandma Blood Vine with her blood dragon. Only Wu Yuechou, the demon wrapped tightly in blood armor, was left, standing out.
The owner of the green rainbow naturally saw it as well, and the rainbow light shot out. Wu Yue couldn't figure out the details of the rainbow light, but just by looking at the huge scale, he knew it was not an ordinary thing, so he chose to avoid the attack temporarily. He stopped and flew backwards ten feet.
Qinghong saw this, but did not give up. He also chased after him, and at an extremely fast speed. In just a blink of an eye, he caught up with the demon.
When the devil saw this, he immediately used his magic power to activate the blood armor, which immediately shone brightly. In addition, Wu Yuechou also sacrificed a nine-section wooden mace, ready for defense.
But what was surprising was that Qinghong just quickly circled around Wu Yuechou and then left, leaving only a green rope-like tail behind the demon.
Wu Yuechou was a little confused.
However, the next moment, both the good and evil forces, who were paying attention to Qinghong's movements, opened their eyes wide.
The green rainbow tail suddenly tightened like a rope and was wrapped around Wu Yuechou's body like a real thing.
Tailing is very common. It is the spiritual light formed when magic weapons, spells, or even cultivators fly in the void and the magic light collides with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
These spiritual lights will also emit different brilliances depending on the five elements and yin and yang attributes of the flying object, the depth of the magic power fluctuations, and the attributes and density of the local spiritual energy of heaven and earth. They are quite eye-catching.
Often, the louder the tail noise, the more complicated the flying object is.
However, the tail is just a trace left by the flying object. When the flying object is far away, the spiritual energy of the world slowly returns to calm, and the tail slowly disappears.
I've never heard that the tail can change!
Wu Yuechou had not expected this, so he had no time to dodge, and the tail was so close to him that he could not dodge. He could only use all his strength to activate the blood armor and be prepared.
however.
The green rainbow tail contracted and tightened around his waist. The blood-red vine armor that had been nourished by Wu Yuechou's life's blood and energy and had protected him from countless disasters seemed like paper in front of the tail. It exploded as soon as it touched the tail, and he couldn't even hold on for a breath, leaving Wu Yuechou's body exposed without reservation.
It was a body that looked like a dead vine, with skin covering bones, and no flesh and blood. Instead, the roots of the blood vine were crawling all over his body like blood vessels.
Such a body couldn't even hold on for the second half of the tail's movement. As the tail tightened completely, this evil demon exploded into a pile of bones mixed with broken vines.
Amidst the debris, a dim soul was holding a black and red pill bead in a daze, as if it had not yet recovered from its shock.
But it doesn’t matter anymore. At this moment, Qinghong looked back and hit the demon’s soul and golden elixir, blasting it into countless spiritual lights, which turned into essence and returned to heaven and earth.
Wu Yuechou, the Grand Elder of the Blood Vine Sect who was somewhat famous in the Southern Wilderness, was strangled to death by the tail of an unknown magic weapon.
Everyone outside was shocked.
What magic weapon is this?
Yang Xuanla had just heard Long Youpo's urging and was about to get up to support Yao Kaijiang, but when he saw Qinghong's mighty power, he stopped abruptly.
A green rainbow was circling over the Lost Lake and no one dared to approach.
Afterwards, a ray of light came from the north and flew here following the end of the rainbow light.
The escaping light came to the Lost Lake and condensed into a graceful figure. The woman was dressed in a goose yellow gown and her waist-length hair was tied behind her head with a red rope. She had an extraordinary temperament. At this moment, bathed in the rain and lightning, she had an even more divine majesty.
After the woman stood still, the green rainbow faded away and condensed into an ancient and slender green flying sword, circling around the woman.
The woman had beautiful eyebrows, dark blue like distant mountains, but she frowned at the moment. She first looked towards the east where the battle was gradually dying down, then glanced at the lake. Although the fog in the distance of the Lost Lake had been dispersed by Long Youpo, the layer of fog that had formed naturally over time directly above the lake was still there, but the woman could not see through it.
However, Cheng Xinzhan, who was on the lake, was controlling the fog array himself and had a pair of magical eyes, so he could see the woman outside the lake clearly.
is her.
Why did she come here?
Emei is not far from here. Did it hear the noise and come here to kill the demon?
At this time, the woman looked towards the Taoist priests fighting with Yao Kaijiang on the east side, and her cold voice rang out over the lake.
"Masters, where is Master Cheng now? Has he been rescued?"
The woman was anxious. The sect's Di Eavesdropping Department found out that a group of Eastern Taoists had recently sought help from the Miaojiang Taoist sect. There were spies from Emei in the Miaojiang Taoist sect, and they vaguely heard that three people from the Eastern Taoist sect broke into the Wujiang Lost Lake and were surrounded by evil spirits. The leader of the three people who went in was a man named Cheng Xinzhan from Sanqing Mountain.
When the woman heard the news, she immediately left the sect and rushed over. Killing demons and eliminating evil is the duty of Emei.
Facing the woman's question, Song Jishu and others were confused. He asked,
"I don't know who you are?"
The woman clasped her fists and answered,
"Mount Emei, Zhou Qingyun." Turns out he is from Emei, no wonder he has such a sharp sword.
Everyone suddenly realized something.
But how did she know that Xinzhan was in the lake? Could it be that Xinzhan had sent a message to ask for reinforcements? But she seemed to have misunderstood something. She and others were going to save Hongmuling and kill Yao Kaijiang, not Xinzhan.
Although Song Jishu had no good feelings towards Emei, he was ready to explain a little when he saw that this person seemed to be an old acquaintance of his. But at this moment, he saw a person flying out from the mist over the lake. He was wearing the same clothes that he had never changed before: a lake blue outer robe, a light peach lining, a purple scarf, a pearl crown, a fire cloud hairpin, and a pair of white cloth shoes with cloud patterns on his feet.
"I am here, thank you for your concern."
Zhou Qingyun felt relieved and happy when he saw that Cheng Xinzhan was fine.
"But I don't know how Fellow Daoist Zhou knew that I was here?"
Zhou Qingyun's expression changed again, his eyes were tinged with a bit of emptiness, and his voice became colder, "Don't worry about it, fellow Daoist."
She looked towards the eastern peaks. The mountaintops here were destroyed, the demons were fleeing, and the demon leader was also besieged. However, the western peaks were full of demonic energy, but they were safe and sound. Thinking of the blood armor just now, she thought about it, and the ancient and slender jade green flying sword turned into a rainbow again, slashing towards the mountaintop where the Blood Vine Sect was. She also flew away, leaving only a sentence,
"I am only here to slay the devil."
The ancient and slender flying sword turned into a vast blue rainbow that stretched across the sky and swept towards the hilltop where the Blood Vine Sect was located. The light film supported by the Blood Vine Grandma was instantly shattered.
Grandma Xueteng was amazed at the power of the flying sword, and Wu Yuechou's death reminded her of a name from long ago, Changmei Zhenren, the master of Qi Shuming, the current leader of Emei.
Legend has it that before becoming an immortal, Changmei Zhenren traveled the world with his junior brother. Changmei Zhenren wielded a green sword and his junior brother wielded a purple sword. They slew demons and eliminated evil spirits with success. At that time, the Northern and Southern sects of the devil were severely damaged by these two talented junior brothers who had not appeared in the world for a long time, and many powerful predecessors were suppressed.
According to legend, when the green sword kills an enemy, it will turn into a long rainbow. Anyone who is touched by the green rainbow will either die or be injured.
The name of that sword is "Qingsuo".
Mount Emei, Zhou Qingyun.
Three heroes and two clouds! Long Youpo recalled the woman's self-proclaimed name, and she became more certain that it was this immortal sword.
So, everyone heard Grandma Long You say "go", and then they saw the blood river flying back to the hill where the Blood Vine Sect was located. The Blood Vine Sect members jumped into the blood river without saying a word, and Grandma Blood Vine herself jumped in as well.
Before Grandma Xueteng jumped in, she cast a wooden talisman, which turned into a dragon and crashed into Qinghong who was chasing her, causing fireworks all over the sky. Then the blood river was seen moving away quickly like a snake swimming in the water, and no trace was seen.
Yang Xuanla couldn't help but curse, "Old thief!"
At this moment, seeing the woman in the yellow skirt looking at him coldly, Yang Xuanlao's scalp tightened. He didn't know how powerful this woman was, but judging from her magic power, it seemed that she had just entered the third realm and was not worth mentioning. The powerful thing was the flying sword. He also didn't know how ferocious the flying sword was, but he saw that Wu Yuechou died with one move, and scared away the Blood Vine Grandma who had a higher cultivation level than him, so he didn't want to try to fight and wanted to leave.
However, Yang Xuanla does not have the same magical powers as Xuehe.
At this moment, he had no time to think, as the blue light had already swept over him. Yang Xuanla's eyes flashed with ferocity, and he made up his mind not to care about his subordinates. Anyway, half of the disciples of Nanpanjiang Mountain Sect were still there. So, he turned into a wisp of black water smoke and was about to leave his subordinates.
However, no one expected that the notorious Long Youpo would escape without saying a word. The Blood River magical power was really swift, so it allowed her to escape without anyone expecting it. If Yang Xuanla, who was slow to realize the situation, had also escaped so easily, then Cheng Xinzhan and Zhou Qingyun would have been unworthy of their titles.
"burn!"
Is there any escape method in the world that can be faster than the curse from the unknown?
A blazing yang fire magic power fell on the water pipe. Although it did not hurt Yang Xuanla, it broke his escape method and transformed him into a human again.
The next moment, Qinghong swept over.
Yang Xuanla sacrificed a stone tablet covered with sphagnum moss, which looked eerie and ominous.
However, when the stone tablet came into contact with the blue rainbow, it was like freshly-picked tofu, and it shattered into pieces in an instant.
Yang Xuanla was horrified. Now he finally knew the power of this flying sword, because as soon as he made a move, he had already sacrificed his most powerful defensive magic weapon, a stone tablet he obtained from the ruins of an ancient witch altar in the southern wilderness. It had never been destroyed by anyone in the past, and even if there were some traces left on the surface, it would be restored to its original state within a few months after being soaked in spiritual water.
He never expected that he would be destroyed by this Qinghong sword.
Qinghong came again, and he hurried to dodge, but then, another red-gold sword light flew over.
Yang Xuanla took a look and saw that it was the sword that the Taoist priest who had just come out of the lake had taken out. He also had an impression of this sword. It was the sword that the Taoist priest had used to break through the Blood River Formation of the Blood Vine Grandma, a pure yang sword.
This sword did not look as terrifying as the Green Sword, but Yang Xuanla raised water ghosts, refined his Yin body, and had a lot of Yin and cold magic power, so he did not dare to take the Pure Yang Flying Sword head-on, so he had to avoid it again.
At this time, "Qingsuo" came again and attacked from both sides together with "Taodu".
"These two youngsters, relying on their powerful swords, actually dare to act so arrogantly!"
Yang Xuanla had never been besieged by two people who were several realms lower than him. He was furious and cursed viciously. Then he took out a huge earthenware jar filled with water. As Yang Xuanla muttered something, water ghosts crawled out of the jar one after another. These water ghosts had disheveled hair and swam in the void and pounced on the two men.
"Qingsuo" was very spiritual. When it saw the evil ghosts rushing towards its master from all directions, it quickly retreated and surrounded its master. Needless to say, any water ghosts that came into contact with the sword light turned into nothingness.
"Just draw your sword and don't worry about yourself."
At this time, Zhou Qingyun suddenly heard Cheng Xinzhan say this.
She was slightly moved. "Qingsuo" was eager to protect his master, but in fact, she had the "Huanggong Body-protecting Amulet" given by her master, so she had no worries about water ghosts. But since he said so, she might as well believe him.
So, Zhou Qingyun really flew towards Yang Xuanla on the "Green Rope" again, regardless of his own safety.
The water ghosts came again, and Cheng Xinzhan would naturally not let the water ghosts hurt Zhou Qingyun.
"Jade Pivot captures evil, thunderbolt evil spirit, cut!"
"Yang thunder blazes the sky, Fengdu has no trace, it is broken!"
"The evil spirit of the heavens will destroy all ghosts!"
He chanted the Five Thunder Spell loudly, and the thunder in the sky roared like the creation of the world. Silver and purple lightning poured down like a waterfall. The thunderbolts intertwined into a thunder net, protecting Zhou Qingyun. All the evil ghosts around her turned into ashes. The water ghosts that came later were frightened by the thunder, and no matter how Yang Xuanla urged them, they didn't dare to get close at all.
