Chapter 855: Careful Budgeting (2)
Coming?
So, let’s go to war?
Of course, the female disciples of Qinglin Sword Palace under the names of Qingyou and the other two cannot be allowed to go into battle.
Lu Yi had not yet had the chance to discuss his experiences over the years with Qingyou and the other two girls. He did not know the origin of the Qinglin Sword Palace, let alone why there were only a group of female disciples in the Qinglin Sword Palace!
Uh, that's not important.
If a strange city like the ancient city of Loulan can exist, then Lu Yi can accept the Qinglin Sword Palace even if it has a group of lively young female disciples, or even a group of staggering baby disciples crawling all over the ground.
Looking at the military formations composed of various strange and bizarre tribes that kept pouring in from all directions, the Red Dust Sky behind Lu Yi rotated slightly, and one after another of the Red Dust Sky gods and demons that were equally strange in appearance also walked out.
Ox, tiger, horse, pig, eagle, eagle, vulture, roc...
Thousands of strange tribes, each of which cultivated into human form, with big heads that were very characteristic of their tribe, or pairs of huge wings on their backs, walked slowly out of the mortal world in a very neat military formation.
Auspicious light and lucky energy rose into the sky.
The ground is filled with intoxicating fragrance.
Buddha's light and fragrant mist are entwined layer by layer.
Lotus flowers bloomed one after another all over the ground.
A clear spring from the sky slowly falls.
The ground surface pools are unfolding one after another.
Soon, the scene in the Buddha's kingdom in the Red Dust World spread around Lu Fu. Tens of millions of gods and demons of various races followed the divine thoughts transmitted by Lu Fu and entered the two major formations set up by Lu Fu, one inside and one outside, with great familiarity, and each took their place.
The cultivation bases of the gods and demons of various races released by Lu Yi were not high. They were all at the True Immortal level, and their cultivation bases were all below the fifteenth level of the True Immortal Realm... Such cultivation bases were not worth mentioning at all compared to the alien races that surrounded them on all sides.
However, tens of millions of low-level True Immortals, relying on Lu Yi's formation, integrated all the power into one. Suddenly, a ball of bright golden light shot up into the sky, and the vast void around the crocodile turtle was forcibly condensed into a relic.
Immortal, indestructible, immovable, and unmovable.
Under the blessing of Lu Yi's Zhenyu Buddhist Dharma, in this double formation, all things are constant, all things are unified, and all great forces are condensed into one, just like the supreme relics cultivated by Buddhist monks. No matter how many calamities you suffer, it is difficult for them to decay in the slightest.
The gates opened around the formation.
The eighteen array gates turned into tall portals surrounded by smoke and cloud, allowing all foreign races to enter and exit.
Inside each formation gate, there are two Buddha-level white-bone gods and demons guarding it. Yu Dianhu and other white-bone gods and demons roar in a low voice, bare their teeth, and the murderous aura in their hearts turns into billowing smoke and clouds that fill the void, just like a butcher polishing his butcher knife, just waiting for those fat and cute pigs to come to the door automatically.
Large groups of alien vanguard troops poured into the formation.
Countless rays of bone divine light condensed into countless blades, spinning rapidly and slashing down. The sound of "puffing" was endless. Wherever the blades passed, the bodies of hundreds of millions of aliens were torn apart, their souls were shattered, and large pieces of blood mist were swallowed by the bone gods and demons, which added a large amount of cultivation to them out of thin air and increased their infinite ferocity.
Lu Yi sat cross-legged with confidence in the center of the formation, on the top of the main peak of the Small Vajra Xumi Mountain, and looked calmly at the three-headed, nine-tailed, twelve-armed white skeleton that was slowly approaching.
"Senior, if we separate, we will both suffer, but if we unite, we will both benefit. Senior is extremely wise, so of course you understand this principle. So, please cooperate with me..." Lu Yi stared at the white skeleton with a dim gaze, "In a short while, I will coordinate the formation with you... If you cooperate with me wholeheartedly to deal with the strong enemy, you will naturally have nothing to worry about."
"If you make the slightest movement, and my formation is broken, you will be the first to suffer."
Lu Yi looked at the skeleton with a smile: "We will be villains first and gentlemen later... What do you think, senior?"
The white skeletons stared at Lu Yi with dim eyes. The three huge white skeletons nodded slowly: "He is a ruthless, treacherous and cunning boy... Hey, hey, if I were the young master, I could have had your character back then, how could I have fallen to this point?"
Shaking his head, the skeleton said in a deep voice: "Whatever, whatever... No matter what, just live... I have nothing else to ask for, whether it's to linger on or to survive, just live... Hey, hey, I have committed an unforgivable crime, and now all I ask for is to live."
The surface of the white skeleton was flickering with layers of faint light, and the many Taoist rhymes and heavenly secrets wrapped around his body dissipated layer by layer.
Lu Yi immediately chanted the spell, and the power of the formation wrapped around the skeleton layer by layer. The skeleton was like a solid foundation, and the power of the formation was like heavy beams and pillars, penetrating deeply into the body of the skeleton.
The voices of the Buddha of Precious Light Merit, the Buddha of Hell-Suppressing Mysterious Light, and Master Baiyang sounded in Lu Yi's mind at the same time.
The three great masters who had experienced the evil hearts of countless people reminded Lu Yi to be wary of this old monster with unpredictable origins.
Lu Yu nodded slowly and said nothing.
The power of the formation and the white skeleton that had let go of all its defenses matched perfectly. Suddenly, a large amount of strange light surged inside and outside the formation, and the strength of the entire formation increased by more than ten times.
Lu Fu became more and more confident.
He gave a light shout, and the eighteen opened array gates expanded a lot in all directions. In a breath, he could breathe in more alien races into the array.
Powerful men from other races began to break into the formation.
However, these powerful people in the ancient city of Loulan only have realms, but lack the corresponding "wisdom" and "knowledge"... Their use of power is extremely crude.
For example, some powerful beings who have mastered the great way of fire have clearly mastered the terrifyingly powerful fire of heaven and earth, and the power of their flames is terrifying to the extreme... But they actually just condensed this infinitely powerful flame into a big fireball and used it to hit people.
Those powerful beings who control the great way of "Earth" condense into mountains to smash people.
Those powerful beings who control the great way of "water" will condense into seas to smash people.
Along with it came the Golden Mountain, the Glacier, the Thunder Pond, the Electric River, and so on…
Lu Yi was shocked by the control of the power of the Dao by these powerful alien races... He really didn't know how they could master such a high-end Dao of heaven and earth with their mediocre blood power.
However, their crude use of the power of heaven and earth was also something Lu Yi could not bear to watch.
Crude, too crude.
It was true that they used the finest gold bricks, jade tiles, and glazed walls to build a pigpen and toilet!
Lu Yi shook his head slightly and released the formation, allowing these alien powers to march straight into the inner area of the formation. Five-colored strange lights shot up into the sky, and under Lu Yi's mobilization, the power of the innate five elements turned into a five-colored millstone. The power of the five elements was closely linked, mutually reinforcing and restraining, subverting the heaven and earth, distorting time and space, and strangling these powerful people who entered the formation.
On the spot, dozens of powerful people in the one-day and two-day realms groaned and their bodies collapsed directly.
In the formation, all the Dao rhymes and spiritual energy were controlled by the formation. These powerful beings whose bodies were shattered could not mobilize any Dao rhymes at all, and could not extract any spiritual energy. Their bodies could not be repaired at all. Soon, their bodies were worn out, and their souls were exposed without any cover. The five masters let out a long roar, and the five-colored lightning circled in the air, condensing into a chaotic thunder and striking down, instantly smashing these souls into ashes.
The four matriarchs supervised the huge ethnic army and watched coldly from a distance.
These alien races... let them die...
If they don't die here, they will die in the counterattack against Liangyi Tian.
They were all cannon fodder, and would die sooner or later... It was impossible that the four holy clans would keep them, feed them well in the future, and let them share Liangyi Heaven with the four holy clans? This was simply outrageous!
So, dying here is a worthy death, right?
The Mosquito Queen twisted her slender waist, squinted her eyes, looked at Lu Yu who was sitting at the core of the formation and controlling its operation, and smiled softly: "This young man is born strong and powerful... I, however, have some small ideas!"
The other three matrons laughed in unison.
Lady Scorpion said calmly, "Each of you can do whatever you want... Ha! By the way, have those old ghosts from Yiyuanxujing contacted you in the past few days? We don't want them to regret it after we have spent so much effort to eliminate all the obstacles in Liangyitian. That would be a shame."
The queen ant crossed her legs and laughed so hard that her body shook. "How about lending them some courage? If these old antiques were intact, it would be a bit difficult for us to conquer Liangyi Heaven. But most of these native old antiques have fallen... Haha, can we rely on just a few of them?"
The four mistresses all laughed.
They all nodded, extremely confident that the four of Yiyuanxujing would never dare to violate the agreement. They controlled such a huge power that they could collapse Liangyitian even at the cost of their lives.
It was nothing more than that, if they attacked Liangyi Heaven head-on, it would cause huge damage to the origin of heaven and earth in Liangyi Heaven. This was their long-cherished "homeland", and they were a little reluctant to leave it... If the four of Yiyuanxujing really dared to violate the contract, then they would just attack head-on...
Insects are naturally brutal and cruel, why would they be so cautious?
Endless ethnic groups, an astonishing number of powerful masters, and the mistress's absolute control over the ethnic groups' souls. This is their confidence!
More and more powerful aliens broke into the formation.
Lu Yi also felt the pressure.
It’s really... too many.
The ancient city of Loulan, this strange place, God knows how it gave birth to so many alien races... and under the summons of the four mistresses, there is an endless stream of strange and bizarre alien powerful men gathering from all directions and constantly joining the siege of the formation.
The formation set up by Lu Yi was like a huge meat grinder, and the aliens that eventually rushed into the formation were all crushed into pieces.
However, as more and more alien races bravely rushed into the formation, the power of this meat grinder gradually became insufficient, the pressure on the formation became heavier, the efficiency of strangulation gradually decreased, and the force of strangulation gradually weakened...
The backlash force is getting heavier and heavier.
In the formation, the gods and demons of the mortal world that Lu Yi had deployed in advance were already covered in wounds. At first, they could use the power of the formation to quickly repair themselves, but as the number of alien races entering the formation increased and their strength grew stronger, they were gradually unable to make ends meet and their injuries became more and more serious.
The three-headed, nine-tailed, twelve-armed skeleton suddenly raised its head. With a wave of one arm, a bowl of eternal white bone marrow appeared out of thin air and was handed to Lu Yi: "Boy, if you don't have a backup plan, you probably won't make it through this catastrophe... But, I have a way. If you take this bowl of eternal white bone marrow, and if you can conform to my fundamental method and inherit my lineage... maybe..."
Lu Yi glanced at him.
Coming again?
Shaking his head, Lu Yi said nothing.
The white skeleton chuckled, placed the bowl of eternal white bone marrow in front of Lu Yi, and said softly: "You haven't felt the pressure yet, and you haven't despaired yet? Well, I'm not in a hurry... Haha, anyway, remember, I'm your last way out!"
The three heads of the white skeleton shook gently, and they sighed softly, "These insects, these alien races, I watched them multiply and grow little by little in Loulan Pass. Haha... You say, these insects, these alien races, they have limited bloodlines, where did they get such a sense of the way of heaven?"
Lu Yu looked up at him in surprise: "Could it be that Senior knows the problem?"
The skeleton smiled and nodded, and pointed in all directions at the same time: "There is a story behind this... Well, do you know the origin of this Loulan Pass?"
Before Lu Yi could speak, the skeleton introduced: "This Loulan Pass is an extremely important frontier town with great responsibilities, so it has an extremely complete early warning mechanism."
"When Loulan Pass is severely damaged and threatens its foundation, this early warning mechanism will be triggered."
"On that day, when Loulan Pass was swept into this chaotic void, all the creatures in Loulan Pass died, which triggered the first warning... The 'races' stored in the 'race bank' of Loulan Pass were hatched, and a new generation of citizens was bred in a very short time. According to the pre-set identities, classes, responsibilities, bloodline magical powers, and talents, etc., each of them took their place and formed their own country to maintain the daily operation of Loulan Pass."
"This first early warning mechanism implants the most important responsibility for all the hatched species, which is to make Loulan Pass return to where it came from..."
"It's just that, in the process of falling into this world, the human race database of Loulan Pass was also severely damaged. When the human race was hatched, there was a small problem... Therefore, the newly hatched human race forgot their responsibilities and regarded themselves as the natives of this world, multiplying and enjoying themselves..."
Lu Wu interrupted him: "You just sit there and watch them have a 'little problem'?"
The skeleton's eyes flickered with a faint light, staring straight at Lu Yi: "At that time, I almost couldn't breathe, and I was unable to intervene... Besides, why should I intervene in these things?"
Lu Yi looked at him and suddenly laughed, "Now that your young master has fallen, you don't dare to let Loulan City return to where it came from, right?"
The skeleton was silent for a while, then laughed dryly: "Why not say it if you see it clearly?"
Shaking his head, the skeleton continued, "The people of Loulan Pass operated on their own for a while, and finally attracted the attention of the evil outsiders... The Loulan City rebuilt by these people disappeared... These insects came into being."
"Loulan Pass has activated the second level of warning. These insects have received the favor and support of this world, which has greatly accelerated their reproduction, evolution, cultivation, and growth."
"These insects have limited wisdom and insufficient blood, but with the infusion and protection of Loulan Pass, one day, there will be a lucky one among them who will achieve the Great Dao and ascend to the upper realm."
"And they will have the mark and aura of Loulan Pass on them. After they ascend, the upper realm will quickly capture their aura... and then locate the location of Loulan Pass."
Lu Yi nodded slowly: "No wonder they have such a large number."
The white skeleton smiled bitterly: "If they don't have enough talent, they can make up for it with numbers, that's it... Therefore, the natural environment of Loulan Pass is the most suitable for these insects to reproduce and grow. They don't need to be very smart. The great way of heaven and earth will automatically blend into their blood, promoting the emergence of masters among them."
"Everything is for the sake of one or two lucky ones among them to ascend to the upper realms."
"But, what I didn't expect was that this group of idiots actually wanted to counterattack the so-called 'homeland'... They are really... hopeless idiots." The skeleton grinned, smiling brightly: "But, it is precisely because they are such idiots... Otherwise..."
Lu Yi looked at the skeleton and said, "So, what do you want to say after saying so much?"
A faint light suddenly lit up in the eye sockets of the white skeleton: "I want to increase your trust in me..."
Lu Yi stared at him.
He also stared at Lu Yi.
The man and the skeleton stared at each other for a long time. The great formation was shaken by the increasing number of powerful aliens coming from all directions. Thick smoke and raging fire were coming out of many of the formation's hubs. A large number of Red Dust Heaven's gods and demons were severely injured and fell to the ground, struggling to get up...
Lu Yi smiled and shook his head: "Trust this thing..."
The white skeleton said in a deep voice: "Well, if you don't trust me, then at least remember one thing - my origin is beyond your imagination... I can give you endless benefits and great fortune... If you protect me well, I can bring you endless benefits!"
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes.
The skeleton groaned for a moment and said softly, "As you said just now, the young master has fallen, and I cannot atone for my sins even if I die a thousand times... But I am unwilling to perish like this... Perhaps..."
The great formation shook violently, and two gates of the formation were broken. Four skeleton gods and demons groaned as they were beaten back by powerful alien beings of the same level who outnumbered them a hundred times, and crashed headfirst into the Small Vajra Mount Sumeru.
The vast alien race roared, and as these powerful aliens poured into the formation like a tide, they quickly spread to the vital locations.
The bone gods and demons were defeated one after another.
Many gods and demons in the Red Dust World were also in great chaos. They could not keep their composure and kept retreating to the inner layer of the formation as it collapsed.
The white skeleton whispered, "This bowl of eternal white bone marrow, if you are not sure about taking it..."
Sighing, the skeleton said softly: "I think you have a great chance to be compatible with my supreme method... But, since you are worried, then... when you have no other way to go, this is a way out for you!"
Lu Yi said nothing.
No matter what this old monster says, as long as I am not tempted, I will not give others the opportunity to take advantage of me.
There was a faint light flickering in the eye sockets of the white skeleton. It shook its head, and its nine long tails swayed, spewing out colorful streams of lightning and fire, which blasted towards the alien army that was attacking from afar.
Lu Yi smiled. Under his micro-control, many gods and demons in the outer formation fled back one after another. The astonishing number of alien armies gradually encroached on the airspace originally covered by the outer formation. Countless aliens gathered together densely, roaring and rushing towards the inner formation.
A faint light flickers in the red dust sky.
The huge body of the white jade toad, under the control of Lu Yi's will, sank little by little into the Buddhist kingdom in the center of the Red Dust Heaven. The most central part was a huge merit pool decorated with seven treasures and full of colorful Buddhist lotuses.
The body of the white jade toad sank little by little into the pool water which was surrounded by colorful light and was as sticky as jade paste. The bright light emanating from the white jade toad and the colorful Buddha light merged into one, and the pool water immediately underwent a strange change.
The pool water became viscous, began to collapse continuously, and gradually underwent a qualitative change.
One hundred parts of the pool water melted into one part, and then turned into a fragrant glow that shot up into the sky. The sky was filled with slightly sticky clear juice, and the endless breath of life rippled from this Buddhist kingdom and spread to the Buddhist kingdoms in the mortal world.
The rich life energy, as Lu Yi mobilized it, turned into a misty drizzle that sprayed out of the mortal world and sprinkled on the seriously injured gods and demons of the Buddhist Kingdom. These gods and demons with broken bodies and even missing arms and legs cheered in unison. Their wounds were repaired rapidly, and their broken arms and legs, and even their damaged souls were healing rapidly.
In just a few breaths, these gods and demons recovered their full combat power.
They shouted war cries in their own languages, re-arranged their troops in high spirits, reorganized their battle formations in the inner Five Elements formation formed by the five elders, and looked at the surrounding alien races with fighting spirit.
The next moment, the forty-three unlucky guys who were forcibly imprisoned by the white skeleton roared and rushed out like crazy.
Led by these forty-three unlucky mighty men, forty-three army formations followed closely behind. With the cooperation of the innate five elements divine thunder in the sky, lightning flashed everywhere, and the formation was in chaos. The forty-three army formations were like sharp swords sweeping across, killing hundreds of alien mighty men who were caught off guard, with their heads rolling and limbs flying everywhere. Large numbers of aliens were crushed to pieces, and the encircled army formations were forced to retreat thousands of miles.
In just a few breaths, tens of millions of aliens were wiped out.
at the same time.
Xingshang River, the place where tributaries meet.
In the deepest cabin of the Nine Lotus Treasure Boat, the broken head suddenly spurted out a stream of sticky blood. He chanted a spell with a hoarse voice, and wisps of starlight spurted out of his mouth, turning into three-dimensional crystal light patterns suspended in the air.
Eighty-four thousand palm-sized three-dimensional Dao patterns that looked like they were carved from crystal were suspended in the air . The Dao patterns were spinning rapidly, and large patches of dim light condensed into a galaxy.
"Come on, come on, help, help..."
An irresistible burst of starlight exploded in the galaxy, shattering one Dao pattern after another.
A handsome young man wearing a tall crown, a three-foot-tall old man with a kind face, and a man in black armor as strong as a mountain appeared at the same time in the shattered Taoist starlight.
As soon as the three of them appeared, they groaned at the same time, covered their mouths together, and had distorted faces as if they were about to vomit.
