In a tunnel that even the five-leveled Taoists who have been here for hundreds of thousands of years don't know about, an old man is slowly moving forward with two juniors.
Their actions were not noticed by anyone and did not trigger any alarm formations. It was as if they were the masters of this demon city.
It is hard to imagine that the five-relegated Taoist, who is a local snake, does not understand his own territory as well as three outsiders.
Because this walled city was actually not built from scratch by the so-called Five Exiled Taoists.
Instead, they inherited the five demons from others.
It's not robbery, it's inheritance.
An old man and two young men walked along the passage opened from somewhere in the Manjianghong Inn, one foot deeper and one foot shallower.
This passage was used to maintain the underground core formation many years ago.
However, due to the changes of time, the underlying core politics and law have been abandoned for a long time because Wuban City has been occupied by monsters for a long time without monks to maintain it.
This secret underground maintenance passage has naturally lost its meaning of existence and has long been completely forgotten.
Among the passages that have been in disrepair for a long time, many places have even collapsed, and water accumulation is a common phenomenon.
The three of them were dripping with stagnant water that was half a person's height, and sometimes they had to dig to get through.
Fortunately, this passage is not complicated. After spending some time, we successfully found the end.
The old man with an ancient leather scroll lying on his hand also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the scroll left by his ancestors was correct, otherwise their plan for this trip would have been aborted before it even started.
Blocking their way at the end of the passage was a stone door made of red boulders.
The stone door has no holes and no locks, and is extremely hard. A high-grade Xuan-level magic weapon can only pop out a few sparks when struck on it.
It's impossible to open it with ordinary means. If Jiang Li was really alive, he would probably be blinded in front of him.
But it was obviously his first time here, but the old man seemed to have been prepared for it. After groping on the stone door for a while, he found two small bumps.
He turned around and took out two daggers, handing them to the two children following him with a hopeful look on his face.
The two young monks, a man and a woman, did not hesitate, but the dagger struck their palms, causing a cut.
He stabbed himself with an expressionless expression, but both of them had a bit of a temper.
Two blood-stained palms were pressed against the two grooves of the stone door.
I don’t know what the reaction was.
The heavy stone door in front of me suddenly loosened, and after a thousand years, it slowly opened again.
A rotten smell came from inside, and the air inside seemed to have aged for a long time.
The old monk ignored the heavy dust inside and rushed in impatiently.
Several points of magic light were fired, illuminating the underground space completely wrapped in northern red rock.
Hidden underground in Wuzhen City is a house that doesn't look very gorgeous and has a strong pastoral atmosphere.
On it, the three words "Exiled to Immortal Residence" are written in simple ink characters.
The original owner of this place did not know who he was, but he actually considered himself an immortal.
If this house were not only a few thousand years old in total, one would have thought that this was the residence of someone who was demoted to an immortal in ancient times.
But now, earthly immortals are also immortals.
"Hahaha! It turns out to be here, it turns out to be here!"
"Luocheng, Luo Xing, come to the house to pay homage to your ancestors!"
The two young monks followed the instructions and walked to the banished immortal residence and bowed three times.
"Grandpa, was this Wuban City the place where our family used to be?"
The young female nun asked her doubts.
"That's right, this Five Banished City wasn't originally called the Five Banned City. It was originally called Banned Immortal Residence, and it was the secluded residence of Lu Shoushan, the ancestor of our Lu family!"
"Hmph, don't look at the scenery of the five banished Taoists. Those five guys were just five domestic animals raised by our ancestors of the Lu family."
"Only after receiving the enlightenment from their ancestor Lu Shoushan, they have the opportunity to develop spiritual wisdom and embark on the path of spiritual practice."
"Those five guys were ungrateful. A hundred years ago, when members of our family came to retrieve the relics of our ancestors, they obstructed us in every possible way and even injured my people."
"This time, we have taken back the magic weapon of our ancestors, and we must make them understand their identities!"
The old man looked at the underground immortal residence in front of him and told an astonishing story from the past.
The five relegated Taoists who oppressed this area were once domesticated animals raised by humans.
But if you think about it carefully, cows, sheep, pigs, dogs, and donkeys are just a few types of domestic animals that people often raised in this era.
Before, when those big demons changed back to their true colors, it was obvious that they did not look like wild species.
Especially the big white pig, how could any wild boar grow like that? It was clearly a domesticated breed after being bred.
This is also the reason why the techniques practiced by these five great demons are authentic from the Taoist sect, and the appearance of their transformations is very similar.
Because they were indeed enlightened by an expert, and their master, Lu Shoushan, the ancestor of the Lu family, must have an extremely large image in their hearts.
Therefore, when they transform, their appearance will naturally be biased towards their master.
The five randomly left domestic animals eventually grew into great monsters and inherited the name of their master. Who knows how strong Lu Shoushan would have been?
One old man and three young men, after respectfully paying homage and offering incense, immediately began a carpet-like search. They believed that there must be treasures left by their ancestors buried here.
But they didn't notice that a snake-like tree root had sneaked in.
....
On the ground, Jiang Li's body did not leave immediately.
He was distracted and multi-purpose, while controlling the coffin to suppress the enemy, letting the clone of the god statue inside suppress the yellow dog demon as quickly as possible.
He also used the Guanyin Heart Sutra with all his strength to monitor the monsters that left.
The speed of the big demon is very fast, after all the big demons have left his hearing range.
Jiang Li opened the burial coffin again, and then a group of dark clouds suddenly poured out of it.
These are Jiang Li's ghost soldiers.
Well-trained ghost soldiers are not like ordinary ghosts who will let themselves go and run around as soon as they come out.
Under Qin Shuman's training, these guys have learned complex super-realistic role-playing.
In terms of arranging troops, there are even more orders and prohibitions.
Qin Shuman was also dressed in military uniform at this time, transformed into a female ghost general holding two large flags, and commanding the millions of ghost soldiers buried in the dead.
Under her command, the ghost soldiers quickly broke into pieces and formed small teams, spreading towards the entire city in an orderly manner.
Now that all the five banished Taoists are out of the city, the family needs to take advantage of this time to pack up everything.
Although there are still some demon generals, the million-level ghost soldiers cannot be killed in just one kill.
Every time they encounter these enemies, the Yin Burial ghost soldiers will merge with each other and become more powerful ghosts to block those demon generals.
A larger number of ordinary ghost soldiers were scattered throughout the city. Their only mission was to bring back all the living creatures they could see.
Regardless of whether they are ordinary humans without cultivation or those weak little monsters, we will capture everything we can.
There are about 3.5 million people in this city, and an even larger number of little monsters.
Probably for every three ghost soldiers, you only need to bring back one living person or one little demon.
Taking advantage of this little time, he can quickly take away these people.
Jiang Li has already prepared an open space in the Yin Burial Coffin in advance where there is no Yin Qi, which can provide these mortals with a temporary stay.
Jiang Li plans to bring these human races to live in the outside world, so that they can do something for the human race after receiving the inheritance of the Human Emperor.
And those little monsters can be used as materials for the transformation of the Masked Demon. He can transform as many trolls as there are little monsters. After cutting off the mask, all of them can be exchanged for meritorious deeds.
Although he has now joined the Si Shen Temple, merit is always hard currency, and no amount is too much.
At this time, the coffin was moved to its maximum position, and countless ghost soldiers were pouring in, dragging mortals and little demons.
Jiang Li was not idle either, he was traveling throughout the entire Wuban Walled City.
His target is the demon generals staying in the walled city.
These monsters, which are equivalent to human Nascent Soul monks, are not weak. Ten thousand ghost soldiers must be fused to compete with them.
And every time it collides with the opponent, hundreds of ghost soldiers will be lost. Ghost soldiers need to be constantly replenished and fused to maintain balance.
Those more than six million new souls have not yet developed ghost soldiers. The number of soul-burying ghost soldiers currently on hand is only about three million, and they can only withstand the fusion of ten thousand ghost soldiers at most.
If we can't deal with them, this lightning search operation will be delayed. What's more, the battle between the Yuanying monks is too noisy. The aftermath alone is enough to destroy the city and kill most of the humans in the city.
In order to reduce this loss, Jiang Li could only do it himself.
He stepped on the immortal-killing flying sword under his feet, and his figure turned into a stream of light that was difficult for ordinary people to see clearly like lightning.
Infinite power gathered in his hands, and he smashed the head of a donkey demon with one punch.
This is already the fifth demon general he has dealt with.
For an existence of this level, unless it is a prehistoric alien species with special abilities, it would be difficult for him to receive his punch now.
"Zhizhizhi, I didn't expect that there is a human race here. Your coffin is pretty good, why not give it to the thief!"
Just when Jiang Li rushed towards the next bull demon.
A long flesh-colored whip quietly broke through the air, and actually caught up with him from behind at a speed faster than the Immortal-Slaying Flying Sword.
Jiang Li didn't hear any sound, but suddenly felt a burning sensation behind him, and then a strong force came from behind. His whole body went numb, and everything in front of him began to spin.
Jiang Li was directly thrown away from the flying sword, hit the ground, and rolled far away with the inertia. He smashed a bunch of buildings and was buried underneath by the remains of those buildings.
"Hey, my dear, you are mine!"
In the distance, a wretched and short figure, carrying a black bag on his back that was almost dragged to the ground, was sneaking out of the mansion of Dog Taoist, one of the five banished Taoists.
Apparently, Jiang Li was not the only one who wanted to pick up some bargains. This short demon rushed directly into the mansion of the Fifth Exalted Taoist to steal things.
Looking at the bulging pockets on his back, it was obvious that he had gained a lot.
And when he came out of the dog demon's mansion, he immediately saw the burial coffin floating in mid-air.
If the burial coffin is in a state of silent disguise, its supernatural power will not be easily noticed by others.
But now that the power of the coffin is fully activated and it has fallen into the eyes of experts, the rank of the earth-level magic weapon can no longer be hidden.
I also saw the magic weapon being used, and it turned out to be a human monk.
The thief, who usually only steals but not robs, couldn't help but take action. With a flick of his tail, Jiang Li, who was flying in the air, was whipped to the ground. Now he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.
The long flesh-colored whip that extended over a thousand feet was quickly retracted, turning into a meat tail that was only over three feet long and hung behind this person.
Then he stopped paying attention to Jiang Li. It was you who appeared next to the coffin all his life.
"Hey, hey, hey, earth-level magic weapon! What a treasure! It's a rare space magic weapon, so good! From now on, I'll follow Master Thief. I must fill it with treasures."
The little thief, who was insignificant and short in stature, jumped onto the coffin and kissed and touched her. He looked very excited.
Earth-level magic weapons are rare in the world of human cultivation, and even more rare in the Shifang Domain, which is full of monsters and has no sub-professional masters.
This thief who claims to have stolen all the treasures in the world has never seen a real earth-level magic weapon in his life.
"Squeak! My ancestor, is this coffin going to be advanced soon?"
He was studying the coffin when he suddenly frowned and looked up.
"Huh? How dare you stop me, you little brat!"
Qin Shuman, who was flying in the air, saw a monster trying to steal his master's magic weapon, so he immediately led 300,000 ghost soldiers and swarmed down.
However, in the world of cultivating immortals, the gap between levels is really too big, and quantity often does not play a role.
The tail whip poked out again and turned into a stream of light from bottom to top, instantly piercing the ghost cloud above.
Even with hundreds of thousands of monsters blocking him, Qin Shuman, who was the core of commanding millions of ghost soldiers, was seriously injured. He screamed and was pulled back into the ghost cloud, and did not dare to show his face again.
"Hmm, you don't overestimate your capabilities."
"Okay baby, let's go."
The short, wretched monster grabbed the coffin and tried to fight it away.
But as soon as he exerted force, the floating coffin in the air only moved slightly, and then stopped moving.
The demonic power that this big demon who calls himself Lord Thief disappeared like a mud cow into the sea, without any effect.
Obviously this precious coffin didn't want to follow him.
"If you want to take it away, how about you go through my level first?"
The rubble that was pressing on him exploded, and Jiang Li, who had just hit the ground, walked out of it.
The casual cultivator clothes he was wearing had a big hole torn open in the back, and some wet blood could be seen inside.
This big demon's ability is very special. Whether it is walking or attacking, it is silent. Even Jiang Li didn't notice his existence just now.
That tail whip he had received before was a 100 percent result.
His skin and flesh were all torn apart at once, and seven or eight ribs on his back were directly broken.
But if it was just a simple flesh and bone injury, with Jiang Li's previous state of earth-level elixirs and the legion-style healing spell War Clear Spring he later obtained, it would only take a few breaths to fully recover.
But this guy's tail still has a layer of fine bristles. After being whipped on the body, these hairs will penetrate into the wound and enter the blood vessels. As the blood vessels quickly flow throughout the body, they will pierce your internal organs.
Make the injured miserable.
The most important thing is that those bristles are also poisonous.
If someone were slapped like this, even if they didn't die, they would have to live in pain for the next few decades until the bristles are slowly expelled from the body one by one.
This is because the bristles are too difficult to remove. Even if Jiang Li had an immortal body, it still took him so long to clean out all the foreign matter in his body.
I didn’t expect anyone would dare to take advantage of him and seek death!
