Chapter 674 The Female Supporting Character Who Gave Gold Finger to the Apocalypse 37
After the formations on that side and Xiao Yun's side were set up, the two of them disappeared from the spot.
What they didn't know was that the Xuanmen group was in an uproar at this time. After listening to Li Qingyun's narration, although it was just a few words, they knew how critical the situation was at the time.
The Ghost Emperor! Even if they had never seen him before, they knew exactly what kind of existence he was. They had never expected that Xiao Yun, a master, could single-handedly take on the Ghost Emperor and several Ghost Generals, and still remain unscathed!
What kind of cultivation level could this person possess? Could he be the reincarnation of some ancient ancestor, or was there truly a higher level to this world, and had he descended from there to cultivate?
Everyone inside was speculating wildly, and Huo Mingxuan felt a little regretful that he didn't go along to broaden his horizons. Every time he thought he knew that Senior Xiao was very strong, he found that the other party was even stronger than he imagined.
Maybe it's really like what the fellow Taoists in the group said, that Senior Xiao is the reincarnation of a great master. Otherwise, no matter how talented he is, it would be impossible to achieve a high level of cultivation without resources. Just like his master, he was supported by the whole sect and was also a genius back then, but he was no match for Senior Xiao.
Just as everyone was discussing heatedly, Xiao Yun and Li Qingyun had already appeared in the camp where the Xuanmen people were located on the southwestern border.
In the camp, the people of Xuanmen stood next to the teleportation array, with some nervousness and excitement on their faces. They were about to come face to face with the powerful man who would challenge the Ghost King alone.
Although they don't respect the strong as much as in the world of cultivation, they still worship the strong even more, especially some older cultivators, who can be said to have seen the future and hope of Xuanmen.
The moment Xiao Yun and Li Qingyun appeared out of nowhere, everyone gathered around, greeted them and introduced themselves to Xiao Yun.
The soldiers around were also discussing it. They had heard what those Xuanmen people had said loudly before, and those who knew them even went over to ask about it.
"Is this the master who challenged the Ghost Emperor single-handedly? He's so young and beautiful, I really can't tell."
"You don't understand this, right? I'm an immortal cultivator, I can stay young forever~"
"But the appearance of other immortal cultivators is no different from that of ordinary people. Don't those masters and sect leaders all look like middle-aged or elderly people?"
A young soldier said with some disapproval.
As soon as these words came out, the people who were originally standing next to him took two steps back and moved away from him.
He watched his comrades' actions and scratched his head in confusion, "What's wrong?"
It was his squad leader who stepped forward and slapped him, whispering in his ear with some annoyance: "You are really careless with your mouth. Don't you know that the monks are very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared? If you say that, they will be angry. What will you do if you meet a ghost and they don't save you..."
"Ah! Should I go and apologize?"
Although the soldier didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, he was worried that what the squad leader said was true. He heard that those who practiced Taoism were quite narrow-minded.
The squad leader looked over there and saw that they were not paying attention to this side. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No need. They probably won't pay attention to you. Just be careful next time."
The monks here really didn't pay attention to the monks over there. They were all trying to make their presence felt here with Xiao Yun. If the big boss was in a good mood and gave them some advice, maybe they would suddenly realize something.
Xiao Yun nodded slightly to the crowd. His spiritual sense swept across the camp and the Laokeng Kingdom on the other side of the mountain. He asked the person in charge there, "Master Zhang, what's the current situation here?"
The old man called Zhang Tianshi replied, "The demons in Laokeng Country erupted very quickly, and almost half of the people were wiped out. The heroic spirits of our country have all returned to the border, and those inside are trapped. We have tried to welcome the heroic spirits back, but they seem to be bound. As soon as they reach the edge of the city, they are pulled back by an unknown force."
Xiao Yun frowned slightly and pondered, "It's said that these souls aren't stuck at the place of death, but rather emerged from passages into other worlds. Therefore, there's no such thing as earthbound spirits. It seems something is causing trouble, binding those heroic spirits."
Her gaze turned towards the direction of Laokeng Country, and her eyes became sharp.
Zhang Tianshi continued, "We also tried to use talismans to break the binding force, but it was ineffective."
Xiao Yun: "Take me to see the bound area."
Zhang Tianshi nodded quickly, and Xiao Yun took him up on the "flying sword". Li Qingyun followed closely behind, and they headed towards the Laokeng Kingdom in the envious eyes of everyone.
Zhang Tianshi looked at the shrinking scenery below and felt the wind blowing on his face, his heart filled with excitement. He never thought that in his lifetime, he would be able to experience flying with a sword!
Although he is the head of the Tianshi Sect, his cultivation is only at the late stage of Qi Refining. Moreover, their Tianshi Sect focuses more on catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits, and mostly uses external objects such as talismans and magical instruments. There is really no profound skills.
……
With Zhang Tianshi guiding the way, they soon arrived above the area where the heroic soul was bound.
Xiao Yun swept his spiritual sense across the area and saw that the densely packed souls below were trapped in a transparent barrier, so crowded that there was almost no gap to be seen. The ghosts kept struggling, as if they also wanted to break free from the restraints.
This barrier completely covers a small town. This border town was the place where the war broke out and countless people died. The appearance of the passage to the other world here may be related to this.
Xiao Yun lowered the flying sword, placed her hand on the barrier, and passed through it directly. She grabbed a soul floating nearby, retracted her hand and tried to pull it out, but only her hand came out, and the soul was still inside.
It seems that this barrier is only effective against souls. It only blocks them but does not hurt them. It should not have any malicious intent.
Xiao Yun thought about it, and reached in with a new soul flag in one hand. After the soul flag went in, she began to recite the magic formula to activate it, but she didn't expect that the soul flag didn't respond.
Xiao Yun raised his eyebrows. Although this soul flag was just a low-level magic weapon that Yaoyao had temporarily refined, it also showed that the formation had to be at least intermediate level or above to confine it.
It seems that this barrier is more difficult than she thought. She retracted her hand and used her spiritual sense to draw a talisman on the soul flag, and put it into the barrier again. Unexpectedly, the rune was like a drop in the ocean after entering the barrier, without even a ripple.
Zhang Tianshi saw it clearly from the side and knew that it was ineffective. He asked anxiously, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, is it difficult to solve?"
Xiao Yun shook his head, "Don't worry, I'll take a look."
She closed her eyes and once again released her powerful spiritual sense to cover the entire city, to see if she could find the center of the formation.
After a moment, her eyebrows raised and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, she found it.
The passage connecting to the other world is in a river flowing through the city. There happens to be the remains of an ancient temple there, and the eye of the formation is there.
