Chapter 182: Escaping from the Predicament in Longyuan’s Hometown

The monsters obeyed the order and rushed towards everyone, whimpering continuously, as if they were roaring or crying…

Listening to all these voices, it was inexplicably miserable and made people feel very uncomfortable…

When Long Qi and his companions saw this, they drew their weapons one after another, held their breath and concentrated. Just as they were about to take action, they heard Ling Xiang stop them:

“Don’t get close. I think there is still demonic energy in those monsters! They are undergoing demonization, but not completely, so they have become so strange. If you kill them now, this place will be occupied by demonic energy!”

Hui Wu smiled when he heard this: “After all, he is an elder of a sect, so he is quite knowledgeable. But if you don’t kill them, you will become like them.”

Just as he finished speaking, one of the monsters twisted like a maggot, approached the crowd, raised its body and pounced on them.

It happened in a flash. Banxia turned around and made rapid movements with the Ruyi Judge’s Pen in her hand. A mark of ink appeared in the air, and as Banxia’s pen moved, the mark of ink turned into an imperial decree.

The monster hit the talisman, just like hitting a wall, and could not go any further. But for some reason, the monster kept roaring and hitting the ink talisman in the air, as if it was determined to break in from here. But Shao Xunxuan’s family had all turned into monsters now, and although they stopped this one, they rushed in from other directions.

Seeing this, Lu Ying shouted at Hui Wu, “Even if he was kicked out of the sect, we were classmates. Are you going to be so cruel to your classmates?!”

Hui Wu’s face was gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: “Classmates? Classmates will see others do evil? Classmates will let others be bullied? Classmates can turn a blind eye and protect themselves? Ha! What a classmate! You are all accomplices! You are all the same kind of people!”

This sentence left Lu Ying speechless. For a moment he didn’t know how to dissuade Hui Wu, and at this time the monsters had already rushed in front of him.

Upon seeing this, Lingxiang hurriedly took out two yellow talismans from her bosom and shouted to Banxia: “Their weapons can cut through these monsters. Once they are cut through, the demonic energy will leak out and may even spread throughout Zoucheng! You hold on for me while I set up a magic circle to block it!” As she spoke, she held the talisman and chanted in a low voice.

Banxia nodded when she heard that, and while she dodged and moved, her hands kept moving, drawing ink talismans to stop the monsters that were about to pounce on her. However, her cultivation was limited, and she could not keep the ink talismans. Once she drew a talisman somewhere else, the original ink talisman would slowly disappear.

Just when Banxia was about to collapse from exhaustion, she heard Lingxiang shout “Protect my world!”, and then she threw one of the talismans into the sky and stuck the other on the ground.

The yellow talisman that was thrown into the sky flew to the middle of the air, and suddenly exploded, and it was like fireworks, and it was clear even in broad daylight. And as the flames exploded, a magic circle opened up around the yard, and everyone was surrounded by it.

Seeing this, Hui Wu laughed: “Although I don’t know what you mean by this, but if you do this, won’t you also be trapped here? I thought you were so powerful, but you are just like this.”

Everyone was also surprised. Lingxiang’s move to lock them up with these monsters was tantamount to putting everyone in danger! ?
At this time, Lingxiang smiled, bit her finger, and dripped blood onto the yellow talisman on the ground. As soon as the blood touched the yellow talisman, the cinnabar on the talisman began to glow red, and soon the cinnabar seemed to come alive and flew out of the talisman paper.

Those cinnabar red characters fluttered like a red ribbon, constantly dismantling the original runes. After a while, they turned into a red circle, fell to the ground, and surrounded everyone inside.

At this moment, a monster suddenly pounced towards Zhao Wuyang. Just when Banxia thought it would knock Zhao Wuyang down, she saw that the monster seemed to be lying on an invisible wall and could not move forward.

This was similar to the move that Banxia had just used, the only difference was that this magic circle could keep all the monsters around outside the cinnabar line, preventing them from getting any closer.

When Hui Wu saw this, he took a deep leap. His feet instantly turned into eagle claws, as sharp as blades, and flew straight towards Lingxiang and the others.

However, he was just like those monsters, as if he had hit an invisible wall. The only difference was that as soon as his claws touched the invisible wall, it immediately made a sizzling sound and emitted green smoke.

Lingxiang smiled and said, “It’s just like that, but you can’t break my anti-curve formation, so you’re still the same, right?”

Hearing Lingxiang’s ridicule, Huiwu was immediately furious, but it only took a moment before he began to grin again: “Even if I can’t break your damn anti-curve formation, what does it matter? Aren’t you unable to get out anyway? In this case, won’t you die of hunger and thirst in there?”

Everyone felt that it made sense. Were they just going to hide like this? They would die anyway, so they might as well fight their way out.

Ling Xiang sat cross-legged on the ground after hearing this, with a nonchalant expression on her face. She twirled her hands and said calmly, “This fasting is also a form of cultivation. Besides, even if your cultivation is not good enough, these half-demons will eventually transform into demons. We can kill them then. Now is a good time to rest so that we can prepare for the future, right?”

After hearing this, not only Hui Wu, but everyone else was so surprised that they were speechless…

This Elder Fu Cang really does what he wants. If he does this, isn’t he just catching a turtle in a jar?

Zhao Wuyang looked even more disheartened after hearing this. He glanced at Lingxiang who sat down calmly, then turned to Banxia who knew about formations and asked if what she said was true.

Banxia knew about this anti-curve formation. This formation has two symbols corresponding to each other, and is divided into two formations, the small formation is located inside the big formation. Although it is connected to the outside world, it is indeed impossible to get out. The big formation binds the things inside the big formation outside the town, and they cannot get out of the formation.

In other words, it is like a turtle trapped in a jar…

However, Elder Fu Cang’s solution is the best at the moment. Otherwise, if Hui Wu becomes so cruel that he kills these half-demons, the demonic energy will spread out and cause harm to the people of Zoucheng.

After hearing Banxia’s confirmation, Zhao Wuyang was completely hopeless. He had not eaten enough before coming here. Now he didn’t know when these half-demons would be able to transform into demons. He might have to fast for a long time. If they were all men, it would be fine, but now there were two women, Lingxiang and Banxia, ​​in the formation. What if…

What if I want convenience?

When Zhao Wuyang thought of Lingxiang’s fierce appearance before, he suddenly became alert. He felt as if his stomach was uncomfortable. He had a bitter face and didn’t know what to say.

Seeing Zhao Wuyang like this, Xinyi couldn’t help but smile, patted his shoulder, and then sat down with Lingxiang. Based on his understanding of Lingxiang, she was not someone who would force herself into a desperate situation. If she did this, she must have her own plans.

As Xinyi sat down, Long Qi and Liu Xia also sat down beside him. Zhao Wuyang was puzzled. It was already like this, why could Big Brother Xinyi and the others be so calm? Even Lu Ying, whom he didn’t know, sat down around Lingxiang. Banxia saw Zhao Wuyang’s surprised expression and knew that he was confused. She just smiled and said, “Because they all believe in Lingxiang, that’s why they are like this. Lingxiang may be a little frivolous on weekdays, but she is not a person who jokes about other people’s lives. She must have her reasons for doing this.” After saying that, she also sat in meditation.

Zhao Wuyang thought about it, and it was just as Banxia said, although Elder Fu Cang was a bit fierce and his actions were incredible on weekdays, he would always help them at the critical moment, just like when the sect performed martial arts twice before. If Lingxiang hadn’t been so skilled in martial arts and prepared talismans for them early, their souls might have wandered into the void by then, and they wouldn’t be standing here like they are now.

When he thought of this, Zhao Wuyang felt that his stomach didn’t hurt so much anymore, and he followed them to sit in meditation. But if he knew that Lingxiang knew the whole story of the second martial arts performance and made such arrangements, would he still think so…

When Hui Wu saw that everyone was meditating along with Ling Xiang, he immediately became furious and started shouting and scolding. However, no one in the formation paid any attention to him at all and just sat in meditation on their own, as if they didn’t hear what he said.

But Lingxiang was just pretending to annoy Huiwu, she was not really meditating, but when she saw everyone following her, she suddenly felt embarrassed. She had never been able to meditate since she was a child. Whenever her senior brothers took her to meditate, she would pretend to be meditating, but in fact she had been dreaming about Zhou Gong.

But in this situation, how could she have a good conversation with Zhou Gong?

Hui Wu cursed for a long time, but there was no response from the crowd, so he ordered the monsters to continuously hit the cinnabar magic circle. The rumbling sound was quite deafening, but everyone had already entered into meditation, so how could they be distracted by such a small noise?

But Lingxiang was different. She was pretending. The sounds were very real to her and she was really upset. But since everyone was meditating like her, she was too embarrassed to speak out.

In the final analysis, it was because of my identity as the Fu Cang Elder that I felt a little…

It’s really like a dumb person eating bitter herbs, unable to express his pain!

At this moment, whether it was because of Lingxiang’s mind or something else, the invisible wall of the cinnabar array was actually cracked by the monster, like the shattering ice on the lake, making a cracking sound, and those cracks continued to spread and crisscross.

Upon seeing this, Hui Wu started laughing crazily again. It seemed that the cultivation level of this young elder was really just so-so. He hurriedly urged those half-demons to strike faster.

Everyone opened their eyes at the same time when they heard the sound. Looking at the cracks all around them, they suddenly became anxious.

As those half-demons struck, the cracks continued to spread, and the surroundings were already in a state of disintegration. Everyone became nervous when they saw it, and Zhao Wuyang’s heart was in his throat.

Isn’t this familiar scene exactly the same as the second martial arts performance?!
However, at that time, the headmaster and Zhenren Qianyuan went to rescue them. Now that everyone is out training, who can save them?

Unlike Zhao Wuyang’s nervousness, Lingxiang seemed relieved when she saw everyone standing up. Finally, she didn’t have to pretend anymore.

She took out another yellow talisman from her bosom and stuck it on the ground with a “pa!”. Everyone looked and saw that the yellow talisman was different from the ones they had seen before. The runes on the talisman paper were not painted with red cinnabar, but a green color, like grass leaves.

The one who was most curious was Banxia, ​​not only because of the runes on the talisman, but also because of the rune head of the talisman. It was neither an imperial decree talisman, nor a Tiangang talisman, nor a magic array talisman. It looked like a strange kind of rune, like a ghost drawing.

Just when everyone was surprised, Lingxiang shouted, “Gather around quickly and put your hands on the talisman. Make sure everyone touches the talisman paper!” Then he stretched out his left hand and pressed a finger on the “ghostly talisman” on the ground.

Although everyone was confused, they did not suspect anything and quickly followed Lingxiang’s example, pressing a finger on the talisman.

Lingxiang made sure that everyone had touched the talisman, then she twisted her right fingers and chanted the incantation.

The spell sounded extremely strange and even Banxia, ​​who practiced talismans, had never heard of it before.

Lingxiang closed her eyes and muttered something to herself. At this moment, a clear shattering sound was heard. The magic circle had been shattered by the monster. The surrounding fragments fell like snowflakes and disappeared before they landed.

Hui Wu’s face was filled with madness. He jumped up and reached out to grab Ling Xiang. Seeing that he was about to catch her, Long Qi was extremely anxious. He was about to raise his hand, but was held down by Xin Yi beside him.

Just when Hui Wu was about to catch Ling Xiang, Ling Xiang opened her eyes, and everyone suddenly disappeared without a trace. Hui Wu grabbed nothing, and was unable to pull his hand back in time, stumbling several steps.

He saw that his hands were empty and Lingxiang Longqi and his companions were nowhere to be seen. His expression became even more insane, as if he had gone mad, and he howled towards the sky.

……

Everyone felt dizzy, as if they were falling off a cliff, but this feeling only lasted for a moment, and they all suddenly appeared in front of a cave, but their feet were weak and they could hardly stand steadily, and Zhao Wuyang even sat down on the ground all of a sudden.

Liu Xia hurriedly reached out his hand to help him up, but when he stood up, he saw that there were two red nail doors at the entrance of the cave. There were dragon patterns engraved on the doors, which looked lifelike, as if they were wandering between the golden nails, which made people marvel.

“What is this place…” Lu Ying walked to the door and asked while touching the door knocker.

Lingxiang didn’t know where this place was. It was the first time she had used the talismanic Lingxiang. She only knew that its function was to take people away from a place, but she didn’t know where it would take them.

Banxia seemed very interested in the talisman. As soon as she stood firm, she pulled Lingxiang to ask about it. Lingxiang patiently explained it to her.

It turned out to be a six-branch talisman. What does six branches mean? It is actually a way of drawing Sanskrit. She also accidentally saw this talisman in the scroll storage room of the Wuji Palace. The annotation said it was a divine travel talisman that could take people a thousand miles, but it did not say where it would take people.

Banxia was greatly surprised when she heard this. She didn’t expect that there was such a magical talisman. It was really interesting.
