Chapter 2026 Gathering Fire
The blood demon's cultivation was higher than He Lingchuan's, so it was supposed to be He Lingchuan guarding the seedlings while it went to fight. But after following He Lingchuan for so long, it had no objection to this arrangement.
The Juromu is growing rapidly, as if it knows the situation is critical and does not stop for even a second.
When it grew a little bigger, He Lingchuan took a few glances at it in his busy schedule and suddenly found that its leaves were somewhat different from the Juluo tree in Panlong City. They were rounder and thicker in shape, with small forks at the tips.
But it also looked very familiar, he must have seen it before.
At this moment, the air behind was suddenly disturbed. He Lingchuan became alert and rushed forward suddenly.
This is actually not easy, because the fierce fire in the cauldron is steaming and the air is often distorted, which effectively interferes with human perception.
But in the next second, there was a sound of breaking air where he was standing, and something was coming.
He Lingchuan didn't even turn his head and used his spiritual sense to take a look. The attacker was only as tall as his waist. At first glance, he looked like a human, thin and short, but covered with fur, and had a short tail like a rabbit.
Looking at its face, it has small eyes, a big long face, white cheeks, a red nose, a protruding mouth, pointed ears, and a tuft of long, neat, white whiskers under its jaw.
He Lingchuan recognized "Master Xiaoyang" as soon as he saw his unique appearance, and there was no need for anyone to explain it to him.
This is a mountain gibbon, also known as "mountain ghost". It looks very similar to a mandrill, but its movements are more agile.
The reason why He Lingchuan could recognize him at a glance was because this guy had appeared in the Panlong World!
After Panlong City captured Xianyou's capital, Beijia became furious and sent a large army westward to teach Panlong City a severe lesson.
General Hong led the troops to resist, and among the masters sent by Beijia was this Master Xiaoyang!
This guy killed countless people on the battlefield, but was finally beaten back by General Hong/Mitian.
But He Lingchuan was also on the battlefield at that time, so he had a deep impression of it and felt a headache when he saw it.
Xiao Yang Zhenren entered Taoism through martial arts and became an immortal through martial arts, without practicing too many magical skills. But such a demon immortal takes a specialized and precise path and is very difficult to deal with.
The characteristic of this mountain monkey is that it is fast and cunning. He Lingchuan once saw it kill ten people in a row in one breath on the battlefield. The speed is not just "fast". Moreover, these ten people are scattered in different places, the farthest one is 15 meters away, and they are not standing in a row for it to kill.
Even Dong Rui’s bat demon puppet can’t match this level of skill.
When He Lingchuan saw it was it, he swung the precious halberd in his hand slightly, and its length was reduced from ten feet to three feet, turning it directly from a halberd into a double-sided axe.
An inch shorter, an inch more dangerous. When facing such an extremely agile opponent, long weapons are not very useful.
The length of such a magical weapon can be controlled by one's heart.
The Qianglong armor was covered with a layer of blood-red light.
"Yuan Power!" All the powerful people watching the battle inside and outside the cauldron would not mistake this power, except Qingyang, who were all a little surprised.
He Xiao was teleported to the wilderness by their Great Mountain Moving Formation, more than ten miles away from his own army. More importantly, without any national fortune to rely on, where would he get his energy?
Not to mention the blood-red light, which proves that the Yuan Force is incredibly dense.
This is unreasonable and does not conform to the rules known to everyone!
Qingyang's face was as gloomy as water: "Back then, he caused a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace and also displayed his Yuan power when he escaped, which misled our pursuit for a time!"
At that time, she and Bai Zhantian were chasing He Xiao and the Crypt Spider Queen. The power displayed by He Xiao made them mistakenly believe that he was an official or general of Bega!
Subsequent investigations were also directed in this direction. In addition, the elixir case at that time shocked the government and the public, and some people took the opportunity to stir up trouble, making false accusations, slandering, and framing others, resulting in a large number of false and wrongful convictions.
Five years have passed, and the aftershocks of these crimes are still there, but no one dares to talk about them.
What was the result? It turned out that He Xiao didn't know how to exploit the loopholes in the rules and where to get such a rich energy!
A few years ago, Qing Yang would have thought that the secret of Yuanli he mastered was of great value, far superior to Dong Rui's demon puppet technique. Such a person should have captured Bei Jia and explained all these secrets clearly.
Unfortunately, times have changed. Qingyang now has only one request:
kill him!
With the addition of Yuanli, He Lingchuan's five senses suddenly became sharper, and even his reactions were faster than usual.
He originally had two great defensive treasures, the Blood Demon and the Soul Mirror, but now they were not on him, so he could only be more careful.
At this moment, a shadow flashed before his eyes, just like a mosquito passing by in front of a mortal's eyes. He Lingchuan swung out with his short spear without thinking, and with a "dang" sound, a thin sword was swung away.
The sword looked like an oversized nail. It suddenly emerged from thin air and pierced He Lingchuan's eyes without any warning.
Logically speaking, He Lingchuan had just dodged an attack from Master Xiaoyang, and all his energy was concentrated on the back. This time he was heading towards the sword, so he shouldn't have dodged it.
But his short spear just happened to smash the spike in half, and he raised the Fu Sheng Sword in his left hand, followed by a diagonal slash!
Swift, strong, and ruthless, they were no match for Master Xiaoyang’s attack.
The attacker with the spike failed to dodge and was cut on the right side of his neck by the knife.
The faces of the people watching the battle outside the cauldron changed. With the blessing of Yuanli, He Xiao's ability has increased a lot, and he can even receive the stab of the immortal head-on!
His energy is not only thick but also powerful.
He Lingchuan also heard the Soul Mirror's exclamation: "The Art of Clone!"
Yes, this sneak attacker is also Master Xiaoyang.
He Lingchuan himself had an incarnation, so it was not surprising to see two Xiaoyang Zhenren appearing one after the other. And he also knew that this powerful opponent's skills were not limited to this.
Sure enough, he had just killed the second Xiaoyang Zhenren and had not yet retracted his sword when he heard a whistling sound from the side and rear, left front, and even below.
Enemies were chasing from behind, and daggers were coming from the front left and below.
The third and fourth True Man Xiaoyang!
Then there was a sound of breaking through the air, and hundreds of small swords followed like shadows, dividing into three directions to assassinate He Lingchuan!
The Qingmeng Sword Formation that appeared at the very beginning suddenly appeared again.
Suda, who was fighting with the giant snake, looked back and saw two more people in the cauldron. They were tall, short, fat and thin, and their faces were exactly the same. They were all making sword gestures with their hands and their movements were in perfect unison.
They are a pair of twins, and they are also the controllers of the Qingmeng Sword Formation.
They are all servants of Master Xiaoyang, proficient in many sword formations and secret techniques. At this moment, there are several small swords circling around them to protect them.
Sutuo was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. So many immortal clones attacking/gang-banging He Lingchuan alone would block all his escape routes. Could he withstand it?
From its perspective, He Lingchuan had no chance of survival unless he could teleport.
He planted the mutated species of the Jura tree, which was a way to break the impasse, but it also limited his range of actions, and he could no longer be as flexible as before.
The sapling that had not yet grown up became his weak spot. Qingyang immediately seized this contradiction and put most of his strength into it, determined to kill He Lingchuan on the spot!
