Chapter 467: The Power of Sword Qi
At the top of the sacred Fusang tree, in front of the entrance to the terrifying space of life and death.
Chen Jiu explained in detail the method of entering and exiting this life and death space, and then said solemnly: "After everyone understands the method of entering and exiting this space, use your spiritual sense to carefully check the situation inside."
Patriarch Xuanming, Tianzun Xian, Tianzun Yuyi and Tianzun Yangmei all nodded solemnly, but Tianzun Yunxiao and her three sisters looked eager to try.
Soon, Yunxiao Tianzun asked curiously, "Ajiu, there doesn't seem to be any powerful ghosts in there. There's only a group of sheep near the entrance. Is it as scary as you say?"
You have no idea how scary these guys are when they reveal their true forms.
Chen Jiu shook his head helplessly, and then said solemnly: "I, Master Peng and I will go in first and clear a place, and then you can follow in. Remember, we don't have to kill those ghosts first, we just need to sweep them all away, understand? "
Tianzun Xi and Tianzun Yuyi nodded solemnly, but Patriarch Xuanming couldn't help but ask, "Master Jiu, how about I go in with you guys first? Can the three of you hold on?"
You're not strong enough.
Chen Jiu shook his head very straightforwardly and said: "We are not going in to kill all the ghosts nearby, but to sweep away the ghosts nearby. You don't have the golden hoop, so you can't sweep away."
He and Tianzun Xian already had the golden cudgel, and he also borrowed the remaining one which was used as the Dinghai Shenzhen from Sun Tianjia and gave it to Tianzun Yuyi, because among them only Tianzun Yuyi had enough strength to move the golden cudgel weighing more than 100,000 pounds.
This time when they go in, they cannot catch those ghosts and monsters and kill them violently, because after killing them, only blood and energy will be left, and the soul will soon dissipate, which would be a waste. They are not short of blood and energy now, what they lack is the soul.
Chen Jiu discussed with Xian Tianzun and Yuyi Tianzun again, and the three of them quickly transformed into their true bodies that were over a thousand feet long, and the golden cudgels in their hands instantly turned into hundreds of feet long.
He looked at Tianzun Xi and Tianzun Yuyi, and seeing that they were both ready, he waved his hand and said, "Follow me."
After saying that, he whooshed into this space of life and death.
The ghosts who were pretending to be sheep eating grass looked up and said in surprise: "This guy is here again, everyone hurry up, if we catch him we can get out."
This is actually a lie. Even if Chen Jiu and the others are caught, they can't get out. The Heavenly Restrictions are no joke.
However, greedy people all have one characteristic, which is that they will rush to get any benefits.
They have been locked up here for tens of thousands of years. Apart from devouring other evil spirits to prolong their lives, they can only wait for other evil spirits to devour them. This kind of life goes on day after day, year after year. Not only can they not see any hope, but they have to live in fear all day long. Who can bear it?
Who doesn't want to go out?
If they could get out, it would be a huge benefit for them. They would not give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope. What's more, Chen Jiu came in from outside, so maybe he could really take them out.
When the ghosts disguised as sheep shouted, other ghosts nearby immediately transformed into their true forms hundreds of feet tall and rushed over.
If Chen Jiu were a human, even if he was at the level of Heavenly Venerate or even at the level of Ancestor, he would not be able to withstand the beating from so many ghosts and monsters.
These ghosts were very clear about this and surrounded him without hesitation. However, the ghosts pretending to be sheep did not seem to be targeting Chen Jiu. They just shouted a few times in a pretentious manner and did not pounce on Chen Jiu. The other ghosts had already pounced into the sky, but they were still jumping on the ground pretending to be attacking.
Perhaps, this entrance is the best place in the entire space of life and death, or perhaps, these evil ghosts pretending to be sheep are the most vicious of all evil ghosts.
Chen Jiu was too lazy to care about all this. He just swung his golden cudgel and swept it around.
With a series of "bang bang bang bang bang" sounds, all the ghosts and monsters that flew within a few hundred feet were swept away several miles away like cannonballs.
He was still holding back on strength. If he had used all his strength, most of the ghosts and monsters that were hit would have been killed by his blow.
However, these ghosts thought that his strength was limited to this. Anyway, his stick couldn’t even kill ghosts at the second level of ghost power, so what was there to be afraid of? Come on!
Not only did none of the ghosts and monsters around retreat, but instead they swarmed over like a swarm of locusts.
If he was really alone, he would be so scared that he would run away.
Fortunately, at this time, Xi Tianzun and Yuyi Tianzun also came in.
Three people stood in the form of a triangle in the sky, and with a fierce sweep of the three huge golden hoop sticks, the ghosts that pounced on them were thrown out as if they had exploded.
At this time, they finally landed on the ground, but the evil ghosts disguised as sheep monsters on the ground had already transformed into their true forms, scattered like birds and beasts, and hid among other groups of ghosts.
Obviously, they all knew how powerful Chen Jiu was, so they didn't dare to confront Chen Jiu head-on.
This time, two more people as powerful as Chen Jiu came , so naturally they didn't dare to confront him head-on.
They hid among other ghosts and monsters and kept shouting, as if Chen Jiu and the other three could really lead all the ghosts and monsters away.
All the other ghosts and monsters who heard the shouting rushed over regardless of everything and pounced on Chen Jiu and the others.
Anyway, they can't be beaten to death, so they are not afraid at all. In order to get out, even if they get bruised on the head, it's no big deal.
There were more and more ghosts around, so densely packed that there were almost tens of thousands.
Chen Jiu and the other three were waving their golden cudgels and slowly stepping out. The dense swarms of ghosts and monsters exploded with a "bang", and then surrounded them again, "bang" exploded with a "bang", and then surrounded them again. It was so crazy! If they continued to sweep like this, they would be exhausted by these ghosts and monsters.
Fortunately, after they cleared an area of about ten miles , Patriarch Xuanming came in with the three sisters Yangmei Tianzun, Yunxiao Tianzun and others.
Yangmei Tianzun raised his hand and waved it. A chariot with a radius of more than ten miles appeared behind Chen Jiu and the other three. Thousands of demon gods on it had been ready for battle. He shouted loudly, "Send the sword energy quickly, don't stop."
"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha." A burst of neat shouts rang out, and a terrifying vortex of sword energy quickly gathered in the sky.
If this vortex of sword energy were to transform into a giant blade and sweep out, second, third, fourth, and fifth level ghosts and monsters would probably be cut in half in an instant, and even sixth level ghosts and monsters might not be able to block it.
However, Yangmei Tianzun did not transform the vortex of sword energy into a giant blade. He simply spread the vortex of sword energy and swept it outwards like a whirlwind.
This time, the ghosts were finally frightened, because the sword energy in the vortex was too sharp, if they rushed in they would be swept into pieces of blood and flesh!
Who is so stupid as to run into the edge of a knife?
What's more, the sword energy emitted by the demon god is more terrifying than the edge of a knife. Crashing into it is like crashing into a meat grinder. The flesh and blood on their bodies are being scraped into pieces as you watch!
These flesh and blood are the nutrients that sustain their lives. If they sweep away a piece of it, they will live a few days or even months less. Naturally, they dare not crash into the vortex of sword energy.
The vortex of sword energy was getting bigger and bigger, and the chariot in the middle was also getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more demon gods on the chariots.
Soon, the chariot expanded to an area of hundreds of miles in radius, with tens of thousands of demon gods on it, and the number of sword energies in the vortex of sword energy reached a terrifying number of more than 100,000.
Wherever the vortex of sword energy passed, all the ghosts and monsters were terrified and retreated in haste. The territory they occupied became larger and larger.
When Yangmei Tianzun saw that the area in the middle was enough, he raised his hand and waved it, and sent out eight chariots with a radius of hundreds of miles. He placed them directly on the ground, forming a Bagua formation, leaving an open space of several hundred miles in the middle.
At this time, Chen Jiu, Xuanming Patriarch, Xian Tianzun, Yuyi Tianzun and others gathered in the middle of the Bagua Formation and released Lao Taoshu and the other six.
Upon seeing this, Yangmei Tianzun summoned a chariot with a radius of hundreds of miles, and swung it towards an array center in the Bagua Formation. He then commanded his chariot to slowly land on another array center.
Now, the Great Eight Trigrams Ten Thousand Immortals Formation was finally set up. He and True Lord Jingrou each guarded the center of the formation, and they could take turns to launch sword energy to protect Lao Taoshu and the others in the formation.
He directly dispersed the more than 100,000 blade energies in the periphery to the surroundings, sweeping away the ghosts and monsters. Then he said solemnly: "Master Jiu, all right, if they dare to get close, we can immediately send out 100,000 blade energies to sweep them away."
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, and then said to Xuanming Patriarch and Old Peach Tree, "Let's get started."
The four of Old Peach Tree and the other two immediately spread out into a pentagon in the Bagua Formation, and in a flash, they transformed into their true bodies that were over three thousand feet tall. The Heavenly Silkworm Tree then transformed into its true body in the middle of the pentagon, and in a flash, it spread out its branches and leaves.
These six giant trees actually formed a forest with a radius of hundreds of miles, and there were dense branches and leaves above everyone's heads.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xiaotian, why are you joining in the fun? You don't know how to refine puppets and blood soul pills."
Tiancanshu said seriously: "I want to learn from Sister Xiangxiang and the others, maybe I can learn it?"
Okay, as long as you can learn it.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, and then asked: "Master Diao, what should we do now?"
Xuanming Tianzun directly waved out a bunch of gold essence, silver essence, copper essence and iron essence, and placed them around Lao Taoshu and the others, and then solemnly said: "Now you go and capture one or two ghosts of the second level of ghost god, and let them absorb them and try . Remember, they have to be alive, otherwise they will have no soul."
Chen Jiu expanded his spiritual sense and immediately flashed to the periphery of the formation. He swung his golden cudgel and hit the ghost that was knocked to the ground by the sword energy.
With a "bang", the ghost fainted instantly and turned into a mountain of flesh more than two hundred feet high.
He chose a monster with a big head, otherwise he wouldn't know how to knock him out.
This guy is too powerful. He knocked out a second-level ghost with just one blow!
This move of his immediately scared the ghosts nearby. These ghosts originally thought that Chen Jiu couldn't do anything to them, but who knew that he was just hiding his abilities.
Seeing that these ghosts were stunned, Chen Jiu immediately swung up the stick again and started hitting them.
With a "bang", another ghost fainted instantly, and its huge head was almost cracked by him.
The ghosts and monsters around were immediately frightened and scattered, running wildly towards the outside of the Bagua formation.
It is true that they are greedy, but they are not so greedy that they don't care about their lives. This person is too fierce. He picked up a big stick and started beating them in front of them, hitting them one by one. Even a ghost would be scared to pee.
Moreover, there is a terrifying formation behind them. The vortex of sword energy emitted by the formation is simply their nemesis, specifically scraping off their flesh and blood, which is simply taking their lives!
In fact, Chen Jiu was not afraid only because he had the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation behind him. If he were alone, he would not dare to rush in front of tens of thousands of ghosts and monsters and knock them so unscrupulously.
Seeing that the other ghosts were scared away, he put away his golden cudgel, picked up a knocked-out ghost with one hand, spread his golden wings and flew back to the formation, then threw the two ghosts to the ground.
The five of Old Peach Tree immediately stretched out two piles of roots, grabbed the two ghosts and sucked them up.
The two ghosts trembled for a while as if they had cramps, and soon they were sucked down like deflated balls. Huge fruits also grew under the trunk of the old peach tree.
Those fruits were originally only ten feet in size, but as they continued to absorb the refining materials scattered on the ground, the fruits grew bigger and bigger, until they expanded to a size of hundreds of feet and then slowly stopped expanding.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but ask, "Is this it?"
Patriarch Xuanming shook his head and said, "How can it be that simple? This is a god-level puppet. It will take at least nine days and nine nights to refine it. You should quickly go find twenty or so ghost immortals. These god-level puppets require at least the strength of ghost immortals to control them."
ah?
It requires a ghost fairy level to control it!
This made Chen Jiu dumbfounded, because Zhang Shixin, the leader of the Underworld Sect in the mortal world, only had a hundred or so ghost immortals under his command.
He couldn't bring all the ghosts and immortals under their command over. If he did, there would only be two ghosts and gods left in the Underworld Cult on earth, and it would be very likely that they would not be able to withstand the army of the Northern Underworld.
Moreover, even if he pulled all the ghost immortals from the Underworld Cult in the mortal world over, it would not be enough. These two second-level ghosts could refine more than twenty god-level puppets, and they could at least refine tens of thousands of god-level puppets.
What should I do now?
Chen Jiu frowned and pondered for a while, then asked: "Master Diao, do you need to cast a soul curse to control these god-level puppets? I mean, will those ghost fairies be imprisoned in the god-level puppets and unable to get out?"
Ancestor Xuanming shook his head repeatedly and said, "Why would I cast a soul curse? I don't want to be punished by heaven."
It would be better if there was no soul curse.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, and then solemnly said: "Brother Yangmei, you and Jingrou should keep a close eye on them. I have to go out for a while."
After saying that, he quickly got out of the space of life and death.
