The heat wave that burned the skin and burned bones spread violently, and the coldness in the cave was dissipated in an instant.
It was as if a sun lit up in front of everyone's eyes. It was blinding and at the same time, the steaming heat rushed into the five senses and seven orifices, making it so boring that the brain could not turn around.
Even though they were far apart, Xie Jingsheng and others still felt the dazzling red light and the heat wave hitting their faces, as if they were in a magma volcano.
Even others are like this, let alone the five Shen Yan people who faced this blow!
The five people felt that the roaring heat wave almost condensed into a piece of substantial glow, rolling in like a stormy wave, almost engulfing them!
That blazing sun was like a mountain collapsing, suppressing them, trying to annihilate their flesh, blood and bones into ashes!
The fear of death suddenly enveloped my heart!
Under the huge pressure of life and death, the five people shouted with ferocious faces, resorted to the strongest means in their lives, and faced the blazing sun with determination in their eyes!
The next moment, a deafening roar suddenly broke out!
The violent and blazing flames instantly drowned the five Shen Yans, turning the place where they stood into scorched earth!
The air wave carried the dust and swept it a full five to six hundred meters away, smashing countless strange stone milk pillars along the way before slowly dissipating.
The bright red sun suddenly dissipated, and Xie Jingsheng and others felt as if a huge weight had been lifted away in one fell swoop. The weight of the weight suddenly changed, causing their bodies to sway uncontrollably.
But they no longer cared about catching their breath, and quickly looked up, and saw that the five to six hundred meters of ground in front of them had been reduced to scorched earth, and there were even many blocks glowing with a faint red light.
That's the crystal formed by the melting and transformation of sand when it suddenly undergoes extreme high temperatures!
Everyone looked at the scene in front of them with blank faces, their mouths and tongues were dry and they couldn't say a word.
Peng Junqin was completely stunned on the spot, with his mouth wide open for a long time and did not come back to his senses.
No one expected that Shen Yan and the five men came in a fierce manner, but they were defeated by Lin Shen with one sword!
No, this is not a problem for Shen Yan and others!
But Lin Shenqiang went too far!
Thinking about the power of the sword just now, their hearts trembled with fear.
That is definitely not the power that the Mingqiao Realm should have!
To say that the power of that sword reached the level of a monk, no one present had any objection!
If everyone had some doubts about Lin Shen killing Jiang Wanying before, now they are convinced!
Peng Junqin also figured this out, his legs suddenly became weak, and he could not suppress the fear in his eyes as he looked at Lin Shen's back.
Not paying attention to everyone's reactions, Lin Shen slowly retracted his sword.
The Nine Swords of Shenyang, blessed by the pure Yang body talent, are more powerful than he expected. They have surpassed the realm of Nine Yangs coming together and reached a new height!
"The power of this sword, even if it doesn't reach the level of a monk, I'm afraid it won't be much different!"
A happy smile appeared at the corner of Lin Shen's mouth.
After he gradually integrates the spiritual veins of his clones and further improves his strength, there is still a lot of room for improvement in the power of the Nine Swords of Shenyang.
After calming down, Lin Shen's figure flashed and instantly appeared on the ground a hundred meters away.
Shen Yan was lying on the ground covered in charred black.
The other four Blood Sea Sect disciples had long since lost their bodies and were reduced to ashes. Only Shen Yan, the strongest, was seriously injured and not far from death, but he still had a breath left after all.
Shen Yan kept his eyes open, and when he saw Lin Shen coming over, he let out a "ha" sound in his throat, and stared at Lin Shen's face with his bloodshot eyes.
"True, you killed Jiang Wanying, a true martial artist, by yourself."
"That's right."
Seeing Lin Shen nod, Shen Yan's eyes showed a trace of unwillingness and regret.
If he had known that there were such masters among this group of people, he would never have brought just this few people here.
But who could have expected in advance that among the Jiuyang Sect disciples who entered the spiritual cave, there were actually geniuses who had mastered the martial arts of the True Martial Realm!
One wrong step and the price paid is life!
"What arrangements did the Blood Sea Sect make at the acupoints?" Lin Shen asked.
Shen Yan came back to his senses and stared at Lin Shen for a long time before forcing out a charming smile.
"You can't escape. It won't take long before Master and Brother Min will avenge me, and you will all be buried with me by then!"
At the end of the conversation, a blush appeared on Shen Yan's face, and his speech became more and more fluent, but it was a sign of returning to the past.
Lin Shen frowned slightly, he knew he wouldn't have been so harsh just now, but looking at Shen Yan's appearance now, it was obvious that he couldn't stand the torture and interrogation.
Even if you leave him alone, he will die after a while.
At this time, Xie Jingsheng and others had recovered from the shock, and when they came closer and heard Shen Yan's words, their expressions became extremely ugly.
That's all Shen Yan said was Senior Brother Min. But the word "Master" made everyone's hearts skip a beat.
To be able to teach a disciple like Shen Yan, who is at the ninth level of Ming Qiao, it doesn't take a second thought to know that his master must be a monk!
There is actually a Blood Sea Sect monk in the spiritual cave!
This information made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom.
Seeing everyone's expressions in front of his eyes, Shen Yan couldn't help laughing.
Although he was not going to die soon, it was worth it to be able to drag a group of Jiuyang Sect disciples - especially one of them who had mastered the martial arts of the True Martial Realm - to be buried with him.
Everyone was secretly annoyed, but there was nothing they could do.
At this moment, someone suddenly walked out of the crowd and said in a deep voice:
"I have a solution!"
Everyone turned to look, but it was Fu Weifang.
On the day he was attacked by the Blood Sea Sect, Fu Weifang was seriously injured by Jiang Wanying. Even though he spent the rest of the day recuperating from his injuries, he still hadn't fully recovered yet, and his face was pale and without a trace of blood.
Seeing that it was Fu Weifang, Xie Jingsheng hurriedly asked: "Junior Brother Fu, what can you do?"
Fu Weifang glanced at Shen Yan coldly and said, "I once killed an evil cultivator and got a magical weapon called the soul-detaining mirror from him, which can be used to detain the spirit of the deceased and torture him. , as long as Yuan Ling’s cultivation level does not exceed the realm of Mingqiao during his lifetime, he can answer all questions!”
When he heard the words "soul-binding mirror", Shen Yan's laughter stopped abruptly, and then his expression changed drastically. He obviously recognized this magic weapon.
Seeing the look in his eyes, everyone immediately knew that what Fu Weifang said was true, and they all felt happy.
But immediately, he couldn't help but hesitate a little.
Everyone present came from the authentic Xuanmen sect, so naturally they were not as unscrupulous and unscrupulous as the Blood Sea Sect, so they were naturally a little averse to such things as soul-binding torture.
Fu Weifang was severely injured by Jiang Wanying, and he hated the Blood Sea Sect deeply. Naturally, he had no grudge against the arrest of Yuan Ling, a disciple of the Blood Sea Sect. Seeing Xie Jingsheng's hesitation, he immediately advised:
"Thank you, senior brother. The Blood Sea Sect has killed me and other disciples first. Why should we be benevolent and righteous towards such villains?"
Xie Jingsheng also knew that now was not the time to be kind to women, so he sighed secretly in his heart, nodded and said: "Leave it to you, Junior Brother Fu!"
Fu Weifang was overjoyed when he heard this and looked at Shen Yan with a sneer. He flipped his wrist and there was already a dark mirror in his palm.
Shen Yan's face was extremely ugly and he opened his mouth to speak, but Fu Weifang didn't give him a chance to speak at all. He raised his hand and thrust out his sword, canceling out the other party's last voice.
While Fu Weifang was arresting Yuan Ling, Lin Shen put away Shen Yan's storage ring, walked around again, and found the storage magic weapons of the other four Blood Sea Sect disciples.
Everyone saw it but didn't say much.
Lin Shen defeated the five Shen Yans by himself, so naturally everything he had on him was his trophy.
As for Peng Junqin, he won't talk much.
At this moment, he was frightened out of Lin Shen and huddled in the corner, hoping that Lin Shen didn't notice him.
After some inventory, Lin Shen found the Spirit-casting Pill in the five people's storage rings.
Among them, the Shenyan storage ring contains the most casting elixirs, with a total of fifteen.
The remaining four people have as few as five and as many as nine.
In total, the five of them contributed a total of forty-three spirit-casting pills to Lin Shen, which seemed like a huge gain!
"That's right, these spirit-casting pills are enough to cast the Huiji Injury Clone into four spiritual veins!"
Lin Shen's eyes flashed with joy.
When it comes to resources, it is indeed faster to get them from others!
Unfortunately, there are not many such opportunities on weekdays.
After sorting and putting away the things, by the time Lin Shen finished, Fu Weifang had successfully taken Shen Yan's Yuanling into the soul-detaining mirror and began interrogation.
After a while, the expressions of everyone who got the information they wanted became very solemn.
The worst situation still happened!
The Blood Sea Sect has sealed the hole with the Mingdu Corpse Smoke Formation, and there are monks stationed in the formation.
With this monk and the Mingdu Corpse Smoke Formation present, the Jiuyang Sect would not be able to enter the spiritual cave at all, at least not in a short period of time.
During this period, reinforcements from the Blood Sea Sect may have already arrived.
By then, the Blood Sea Sect will be able to completely seal off that acupoint and take the spiritual acupoint as its own.
And these people will become turtles in the urn completely. The best outcome is to be killed. It is more likely that the Yuanling will be taken away and refined into blood!
"What should we do, Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother Xie?" A disciple from the lower court cast a questioning look at Lin Shen and Xie Jingsheng.
The rest of the people also looked at the two of them, their expressions full of panic.
Lin Shen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "For the current plan, we can only break into the formation as discussed before!"
"That's right."
Xie Jingsheng nodded heavily, his expression solemn.
"The only way to break the situation now is to take advantage of the sect to break into the spiritual cave and launch an attack on the Mingdu Corpse Smoke Formation!"
"According to Shen Yan, under normal circumstances, the Mingdu Corpse Smoke Formation requires multiple monks to operate it. Their master can barely maintain the operation of the formation by himself because of his blood. As long as we can force the other party to spare their energy, To deal with us, the power of the formation will be greatly affected, and the chance of the sect breaking the formation will also be greatly increased!"
"At that time, if the inside and outside work together, the possibility of breaking through the corpse smoke formation in the Underworld is still high!"
Everyone also knew that this was the only way now, so they suppressed their uneasiness and nodded one after another.
Xie Jingsheng turned to look at Peng Junqin again and said solemnly:
"Peng Junqin, you heard what Shen Yan said. Now we are on the same boat. We will both suffer losses. If we die, you will die sooner or later. How about advancing and retreating together? What do you think?"
Peng Junqin's expression changed several times, he glanced at Lin Shen, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I have no objection!"
If Peng Junqin still had any luck before interrogating Shen Yan, the information he got from Shen Yan undoubtedly completely defeated the last thought in his heart.
The next few days are undoubtedly the last hope for these people.
Once the battle fails, and the Blood Sea Sect's reinforcements arrive, the spiritual cave will completely fall into the hands of the Blood Sea Sect.
Peng Junqin didn't know whether Jiuyang Sect could manage to regain the spiritual cave in the future, but he certainly couldn't wait until that time.
He is afraid of death, but he is not stupid. He knows that only by working together can we overcome the difficulties!
Seeing that Peng Junqin agreed to come down, Xie Jingsheng said no more and asked everyone to continue on their way.
As for whether they would encounter the Blood Sea Sect's pursuers, they no longer cared.
Deep down in his heart, he even hoped that the Blood Sea Sect would send more pursuers.
Anyway, with Lin Shen here, no matter how many pursuers you pursue, they will only end up killing you.
If they give more, they will encounter much less resistance when they break into the formation in the future!
Where the group of people were at this time was only more than thirty miles away from the Ling Cave.
Hurrying along slowly and hurriedly, it only took less than two hours for everyone to arrive near the cave.
Four or five miles away from the cave, everyone stopped in unison.
Even though they were far away, they could feel the cold air rising into the sky in the distance, and they could even faintly see that the sky above the cave in that large area was dyed with a layer of ghostly gray.
"Underworld Corpse Smoke Array" some disciples couldn't help but swallowed.
Xie Jingsheng looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Let's wait here!"
Everyone nodded.
Now is not the time to break into the formation.
They had to wait until the spiritual acupoint was opened and the Jiuyang Sect outside noticed something was wrong and gathered people to start forcibly opening the acupoint. That was the time for them to take action.
If it were to happen now, if the Blood Sea Sect monk was provoked to take action and kill them all, I would be ready to cry without tears.
Before that, their task was to recharge their batteries and prepare for the next war.
Lin Shen's eyes flashed and he found an excuse to leave temporarily.
While there was still some time, he planned to use the spirit-casting pill in his hand to create a few more spiritual veins for himself and his clones.
The war is about to begin, every point your strength can be improved is worth it!
On a high slope near the Ling Cave.
One day has passed since Shen Yan and the other five left.
Seeing that it was almost time for the spiritual cave to be opened, but Shen Yan and the other five never came back, Min Shun couldn't help but frown slightly.
According to the plan they discussed, when the spiritual cave is opened, everyone must return here to protect the Master together.
This matter is of vital importance and cannot be tolerated.
With Shen Yan's character, he would never mess around with this.
If you haven't come back yet, could something have happened?
A disciple of the Blood Sea Sect who was close to Shen Yan was the first to be unable to restrain himself. He took a step forward and said, "Senior Brother Min, why don't I take someone to find Shen Yan?"
Min Shun refused without thinking.
"No, the spiritual acupuncture point will be opened in a few moments. We must do our best to protect Master, and there is no room for failure. Put aside other things for the time being!"
Seeing that the Blood Sea Sect disciple hesitated to speak, Min Shun slowed down his tone and said:
"If Junior Brother Shen is fine, he will naturally come back. If something happens to him, it means that the enemy's strength is beyond expectation. We cannot leave here easily, in case the enemy takes the opportunity to break into the formation!"
As soon as the disciple thought it made sense, he stopped talking and retreated.
Min Shun's eyes flashed slightly and he sighed slightly in his heart.
In fact, he knew very well that if Shen Yan and the other five hadn't returned yet, something might have really happened.
Thinking about it now, his decision to let Shen Yan and the other five go after those Nine Sun Sect disciples was not prudent enough.
Even Jiang Wanying died at the hands of those Jiuyang Sect disciples. It can be imagined that the opponent must be very powerful.
The safest way is actually to wait for work.
As long as those Jiuyang Sect disciples still want to leave the spiritual cave, they will come here sooner or later. By then, they will concentrate their efforts to wipe out all of them. Wouldn't it be better than searching hard everywhere?
It's a pity that it was too late to understand at this time.
Those disciples who died cannot come back to life.
Sighing, Min Shun had a tenacious temperament after all, and quickly dismissed the weak thoughts in his mind. He looked at the gray fog in the basin below, and his eyes became firm again.
Fortunately, the master brought many disciples into the spiritual cave out of concern.
Although we have lost some manpower, there are still more than ten people here, and all of them are elite disciples in the sect.
The weakest one has the ninth level of Mingqiao cultivation.
There are many who have created spiritual veins.
No matter how powerful those Jiuyang Sect disciples are, they cannot be more powerful than the power they have deployed here!
As long as those Jiuyang Sect disciples dare to come and break into the formation, they will never come back!
Three days later.
In the dim cave, Lin Shen opened his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.
"The third spiritual vein is finally here!"
Feeling the third extra spiritual vein in his body, Lin Shen was happy but also a little emotional.
In the past three days, he used ten spirit-casting pills to finally forge the third spiritual vein.
On the other hand, Hui Ji will definitely injure his clone. He cast two spiritual veins in succession within three days, but it only took eleven Spirit Casting Pills!
Comparing the two, the difference is simply not too obvious!
Now Huiji Bishang's clone has been forged into six spiritual veins, and the degree of true energy transformation is even higher than that of his original body.
Excluding magic weapons and talent bonuses, the fighting power of Huiji's inevitable clone seems to be even greater than that of his original body.
In addition, the analogy clone also consumed five spirit-casting pills and successfully forged a second spiritual vein.
The remaining five clones also forged their first spiritual veins in these three days.
Not surprisingly, just like the original analogy, all five clones used three spirit-casting pills.
At this point, Lin Shen's inventory of spirit-casting pills suddenly dropped to only sixteen.
However, the improvement in strength brought about by this is also a leap.
Five first-line clones, one second-line clone, and one sixth-line clone, plus he also has the strength of the third line.
If he attacks with all his strength, Lin Shen feels that even if he encounters a monk, he can survive a few attacks!
It took a long time for Lin Shen to recover from the surging emotions caused by the improvement in strength.
"Calculating the time, it's almost time for the sect to be ready to forcibly open the spiritual cave!"
As soon as Lin Shen finished speaking, there was a sudden roar of thunder in his ears.
His expression changed, and he immediately put away his clone. His body and mind flashed again, and he was outside in an instant.
Looking around, where the hole is located in the distance, the originally gray sky above the cave was filled with a layer of dense blue light at some point, and the gray mist was boiling and stirring like a whirlpool.
Seeing this scene, Lin Shen immediately understood.
