Time passes day by day, and the day agreed by the saints is getting closer and closer. The Antarctic Fairy Continent is also turbulent, and the war is about to break out!
In Tiangong City, in a secret cave.
Tong Ni sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed, and the magic formulas in his hands were constantly changing. The aura on his body was sometimes as violent as thunder, and sometimes as peaceful as an ancient well.
Around him, all kinds of rays of light were flying around, reflecting a face as red as blood, as if it might explode at any time.
Suddenly, his eyes suddenly opened, the breath in his body was rushing wildly, and he couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood!
"Ahem."
After Tong Ni vomited blood, his chest heaved violently, his face turned from red to white, and even his back became rickety.
His eyes were full of disbelief.
"How is that possible! I obviously practice according to the magic formula, but why do I lose my energy every time? And what does the phrase 'three flowers bloom on the top of the golden lotus, and the green light of the purple mansion enters the yellow court' mean?"
Tong Ni couldn't figure it out.
During this period of time, he read the formula from beginning to end more than a hundred times, and deduced countless possibilities, but he encountered problems every time.
And these problems are different. Sometimes they appear in the first half, sometimes they appear in the second half. In short, they just can't let him carry out his exercises smoothly.
"Is there something wrong with the technique?"
Of course Tong Ni also had doubts, but every time he looked up and saw the nine-leaf golden cicada suspended in mid-air, this doubt would be dispelled by himself.
"Lian Xin has read this spell. He concluded that it is true and there should be nothing wrong. If Lian Xin wanted to trick me, he would not hand over a treasure like the Nine-leaf Golden Cicada. The price is too high."
Now Tong Ni is trapped in a whirlpool. If he questions Liang Yan, Lian Xin has already made a guarantee; if he questions Lian Xin, the Nine-Leaf Golden Cicada will be placed in front of him.
"That's it!"
Tong Ni sighed, his mood gradually calmed down, and thought: "It's not time to make a decision yet. Maybe I haven't understood the secrets of the golden cicada. It's not too late to practice for a few more days. If I still can't succeed, then
Let’s settle the score with Lian Xin again!”
Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked at the golden cicada. He saw that its spirituality was extraordinary, and the Buddhist spiritual light was rippling around like water waves. The more he looked at it, the happier he became.
"The treasure is right in front of you, but you can't understand it. Is it because I don't have enough understanding?"
At this moment, Tong Ni had self-doubt.
But his eyes soon became sharp, and he murmured: "No matter what, you can't let Lian Xin underestimate me! I don't believe it anymore. With the true inheritance in hand, I won't be able to practice the 'Vajra Indestructible Body'
!”
Just when Tong Ni cheered up and fell into deep thought again, a wisp of green smoke drifted in from outside the cave, bypassing all layers of defenses and arriving at the lotus pond.
The green smoke fell, and a Taoist priest appeared, with white hair and a childish face, and an immortal spirit.
Astonishingly, it was none other than Danxing Guan Daoyin, one of the three hidden star officials in Tiangong City!
I saw his sleeves and robe fluttering slightly, and his silver whisk hanging on his left arm, as if he had entered his own home, strolling around the courtyard.
"Tong Ni, Tong Ni, your attainments in formations are far inferior to mine. I don't even pay attention to the mere 'Nine Nether Soul Devouring Formation'!"
Dao Yin sneered, walked to the lotus pond, reached out and took out a talisman from his sleeve, and burned it with real fire.
Almost at the same time, a purple sand gourd swayed gently in Tong Ni's cave.
A faint wisp of green smoke floated out, without any breath, as elusive as an illusion.
If it were normal times, Tong Ni would definitely be able to detect this phenomenon.
But now, he was concentrating on his cultivation, running his spiritual power according to the magic formula, while staring at the nine-leaf golden cicada in front of him, and he had no time to pay attention to it.
The green smoke coming out of the purple sand gourd floated slowly, gradually forming a transparent mirror, facing Tong Ni.
Outside the cave.
Dao Yin burned the talisman and pointed with his hand, and a Bagua mirror immediately appeared in front of him.
Waves of light flashed in the mirror, and a moment later a man sitting cross-legged appeared, it was Tong Ni!
The moment he saw the scene in the mirror, a flash of light flashed in Daoyin's eyes, showing an expression of "Sure enough," he said.
"Hehe, let me tell you, why are you willing to use the Evergreen Snake Beard in exchange for a chance to take revenge on your vengeance? If it were someone else, I might still believe it, but who are you, the master of Xuanyin Pavilion? You can swallow your anger.
Expert!"
Dao Yin had a smile on his lips and thought to himself: "This guy must be trying to get close to the Heaven and Earth Tire Furnace. He deliberately bets with me every day to create opportunities for Lian Xin, and then get benefits from that boy named Liang!"
But Dao Yin was also an old man. Although he was in charge of Xuanhuang Palace, he never focused on refining Liang Yan.
He sensed something was wrong on the first day, and when he was gambling with Tong Ni, he kept an eye out and saw that Lian Xin was behaving strangely, so he tampered with the purple sand gourd.
This is his Taoist secret technique, which is difficult for monks of the same level to detect. Only when it is activated will a flaw be revealed.
By coincidence, when Dao Yin came, Tong Ni was practicing in seclusion and had no idea that he had been exposed to others.
"What is that?"
Dao Yin noticed Jin Chan in front of Tong Ni, narrowed his eyes and looked carefully.
After a moment, a trace of greed appeared in his eyes.
"What a baby!"
"Although it is a Buddhist treasure, this object contains powerful energy and blood and seems to be able to be refined. Tong Ni is a member of the Demon Sect, and even he regards it as a treasure, so this object must be extremely precious!"
At this moment, greed arose in Dao Yin's heart, and a fierce light shone in his eyes.
But he knew that Tong Ni and himself were about equal in strength, and it would take three days and three nights to decide the winner.
It was even more impossible to kill the opponent. After all, this was inside Tiangong City, and he did not dare to be too presumptuous.
In a flash of thought, Daoyin made a decision.
Tong Ni is now practicing in seclusion. He can wait for the opportunity and then attack him secretly at the critical moment. As long as he snatches the golden cicada, the other party will definitely not dare to say anything!
When the time comes, force him to use the magic formula in exchange for the golden cicada, and then the two of them share this opportunity. This is not a disadvantage to Tong Ni. Even if he feels useless, he can only break his teeth and swallow it.
Thinking of this, a sneer appeared at the corner of Dao Yin's mouth, and he sat on the ground beside the lotus pond, silently watching Tong Ni practice.
Time passed little by little.
Inside the cave, Tong Ni once again reached a critical point in his exercise. His face was red, sweat appeared on his forehead, and his hands were constantly changing techniques.
Suddenly, there was a series of explosions in his body, and the acupuncture points all over his body opened uncontrollably!
I saw vast mana rushing out, turning into colorful rays of light, hovering around him, illuminating his skin sometimes turning blue and sometimes purple.
"Now!"
Outside the cave, Daoyin's eyes flashed.
He gathered mana in the palm of his left hand, and then swung it out violently. However, he saw the spiritual power of the Taoist sect surge and turn into a huge palm print, hitting the lotus pond in front of him hard.
Boom!
After a loud noise, Daoyin's spell was as powerful as breaking bamboo, breaking all the restrictions inside the lotus pond one by one.
A total of twelve levels of space were turned into powder layer by layer, and finally reached the end and were printed on a simple stone door.
This stone gate is special, it can withstand Daoyin's blow without breaking.
But it opened a crack in the door!
Dao Yin seized this fleeting opportunity, flashed his body, turned into a ball of light the size of a thumb, and got in instantly!
Inside the cave, Tong Ni was meditating hard, trying to understand the mystery of the golden cicada.
Hearing a sudden explosion, the whole stone room shook!
"who?!"
Tong Ni suddenly woke up and realized that someone had broken into the cave. Without any hesitation, he waved his right hand and the Nine Yin Demonic Qi came out!
All he saw was a black arc, as sharp as a knife, cutting indiscriminately around him with him as the center.
At the same time, a green light was lit up in the northwest corner.
The black arc struck the green light Bagua, as if the blade met a shield. Even though it was majestic, it could not break through the Bagua's defense and eventually dissipated into nothingness.
A figure jumped out from the darkness, flying straight towards the Nine-Leaf Golden Cicada at extremely fast speed.
Tong Ni was shocked and hurriedly jumped up.
He made a magic spell in mid-air, and nine black dragons emerged from the back of his head, all of them showing their teeth and claws, with an amazing momentum!
"go!"
As Tong Ni pointed with his right hand, the nine black dragons let out a harsh roar and rushed towards the person coming from different angles, trying to block the opponent's progress.
He made another move with his left hand, and a black light shot out from his palm, trying to pull back the golden cicada in mid-air.
This reaction can be regarded as extremely fast. He was thinking hard one moment, but he was able to make the most correct judgment the next moment.
But the visitor smiled "hehe" and seemed to have been prepared for it.
I saw him making secrets with one hand and muttering words in his mouth. The inner circle of the Qingguang Bagua was rotating forward and the outer circle was reversed. Two completely different forces exploded in the stone chamber at the same time.
hold head high!
But listening to the roar of the dragon, the vast demonic energy swept out like a tide, but was suppressed by the oncoming green light below.
The positive and negative Taoist spiritual power continued to rotate, like a huge millstone, drawing all the nine black dragons in, grinding and crushing them until the roar of the dragons became smaller and smaller.
At the same time, thousands of silver threads shot out from the darkness, faster than Tong Ni, and tightly entangled Jin Chan!
"Don't even think about it!"
Tong Ni was furious and changed the technique in his hand.
A demonic mountain appeared in mid-air. Although it was only a hundred feet high, all the rocks on the mountain were composed of extremely yin demonic energy. It was powerful and astonishing!
The most important thing is that the magic mountain does not appear near the golden cicada, but directly above the intruder's head.
"Give me the town!"
Suddenly, a loud shout was heard, the magic mountain fell from the sky, the vast demonic energy surrounded the surroundings, and even the void erupted.
Seeing this scene, Dao Yin couldn't help but change his face slightly.
He didn't expect Tong Ni to be so decisive. Seeing that the opportunity was lost and he couldn't get the golden cicada, he chose to kill himself!
At this moment, Daoyin's defense is at its most relaxed.
Because most of his mana was used to fight for the golden cicada with Tong Ni, he thought that as long as he snatched the golden cicada, the other party would have nothing to do with him.
Who would have thought that Tong Ni would be so ruthless and show no mercy at all, and would directly take his life!
How could Dao Yin dare to gamble in front of such a lunatic?
As a last resort, I could only take back the fly whisk, activate the magic power to the extreme, and flick it lightly on the top of my head.
The silver threads broke through the air, carrying Dao Yin's powerful magic power, and weaved into a giant net, tightly trapping the magic mountain falling from the sky.
A stalemate formed in mid-air.
Tong Ni's face was ferocious, and he activated the Nine Yin demonic energy to suppress the demonic mountain bit by bit, trying to push Daoyin into the ground.
Dao Yin did not give in at all. The spiritual power of the Taoist sect was poured into the fly whisk, and bits of green light escaped from the silver thread and penetrated into the depths of the magic mountain.
After a stalemate like this for a long time, a loud noise was heard.
The magic mountain was torn apart by the silver dust whisk, turning into countless small stones, falling from the mid-air.
Although Daoyin broke Tong Ni's spell, he felt dizzy.
He was shocked and hurriedly used his spiritual consciousness to investigate, only to find that a wisp of Jiuyin demonic energy had unknowingly invaded his body!
"not good!"
Dao Yin's expression changed greatly, and he hurriedly jumped back. While sealing his vital points with magic power, he waved his fly whisk to scatter the oncoming fragments of the magic mountain.
As for Tong Ni, because the spell was broken, he also suffered some backlash and could not help but retreat.
The two of them stepped back and opened a long distance apart, but Jin Chan was still hanging in the air, right in the middle of the two of them, not leaning towards anyone.
There was a brief silence in the cave.
Dao Yin secretly adjusted his breath, and the Taoist spiritual power circulated like a tide, finally suppressing the wisp of Nine Yin demonic energy in his body.
He smiled slightly in the shadow: "Master Tong Pavilion is really angry. He will kill me if he makes a move. Aren't you afraid of the punishment from the city lord?"
Tong Ni sneered: "Well said, who broke the city rules first and attacked his colleagues? What's more, this is my cave, even if it breaks the law, you should be the one who gets punished!"
This matter was indeed something Dao Yin was wrong about, but he didn't dwell on it. He laughed and said with a smile: "Pavilion Master Tong is so stingy. He obviously got a great opportunity, but he forgot about Lao Dao, a meritorious person, and only thought about monopoly.
It’s quite chilling.”
Tong Ni's eyes flashed with light, and he said leisurely: "What chance? What kind of meritorious person? I don't understand what you are talking about at all!"
"Master Tong Pavilion, let's not speak secretly! You stole this golden cicada from the Heaven and Earth Fetal Furnace. If the old Taoist hadn't intentionally let it go, do you really think you could succeed?"
"That's nonsense!" Tong Ni angrily yelled, "This is the treasure I got in the secret realm. What does it have to do with the furnace of heaven and earth? Don't spit on others!"
Dao Yin was not surprised after hearing this, and said calmly: "Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Let's make the matter bigger and go to the four sages to comment and find out where this golden cicada came from."
He was only halfway through his words when Tong Ni's eyes already showed murderous intent.
"You're looking for death!"
Before he finished speaking, the Nine Yin Demonic Qi suddenly started to circulate!
Just hearing the roar of the dragon, a black dragon actually emerged from Daoyin's shadow, opened its big mouth, and bit him!
This change was unexpected! Even Dao Yin didn't react.
It turned out that Tong Ni had been making plans secretly for a long time, and the conversation just now was just to distract him. It was also because of the strange and cunning Nine Yin Demonic Qi that even Dao Yin, who was also a sub-sage, did not notice the secret changes.
