Xu Dao jumped into the green cloud and continued to tremble with it. After just a few jumps, he discovered that the Taoist priests in the Ningsha realm were indeed very powerful.
Several times, he was hit directly by the opponent. If his body had not been hard, he would have been beaten to a pulp.
And the most troublesome thing for him is that the evil spirit in the green cloud is still thin, but the evil spirit on the Taoist priest's long tongue is very strong. Many Taoists dare not use the cuttlefish sword to confront the opponent head-on. Otherwise, after a few more collisions, it is not easy to develop.
The cuttlefish sword may be knocked down the rank, and the gain outweighs the loss.
In a matter of ten breaths, Xu Dao's hundred-year-old mana was quickly consumed, and the opponent gradually mastered the rhythm of the fight. If he continued, it was very likely that he would fall into a dangerous situation if he was not careful.
At that time, he estimated that he would only be able to escape from the trap by exposing the body of the dragon species in the foundation-building realm.
In the sky above the ghost market formation, the aura of magic flashed continuously, and the huge scarlet worm swung across the sky, affecting the minds of all Taoist disciples and mortals in the ghost market.
The mortals all bowed in obeisance and remained silent. The Taoist disciples also turned pale, thinking that if they fell into the formation, they would be beaten to pieces immediately.
The Yakshamen Taoist priests who fought with Xu Dao also became more and more prestigious.
Xu Dao saw that the opportunity was not good, and his sword-wielding figure suddenly turned around, and suddenly ran towards the ghost market formation, wanting to go back and rest for a while.
A cold and angry voice sounded: "Want to leave?" The Yakshamen Taoist priest in the green cloud used his magic power, and his long tongue swept towards Xu Dao fiercely and quickly.
However, Xu Dao did not avoid it, but took the blow forcefully, and then rushed back into the formation.
There was a muffled groan, Xu Dao's body was in pain, his internal organs were churning, and he barely managed to avoid spitting out a mouthful of blood.
But he finally withdrew from the battlefield in time and hid back in the formation, but looked at the angry Yaksha Sect Taoist outside with lingering fear.
When the Taoist priest saw that Xu Dao had successfully escaped into the formation, the ferocious ghost's head condensed again, and he shouted: "Open! Open the formation!"
It activated all the magic power in its body, spit out a long tongue from its mouth, and became a hundred feet long. It entrenched itself on the ghost city's formation, corroding the formation barrier.
Seeing the opponent's power, Xu Dao's eyes were solemn. While he was wary of the opponent, he stayed in the formation to quickly recover from his attack.
He took out the elixir from the flying flag, swallowed it into his mouth as if for free, and then relied on his powerful body to quickly refine it.
On the other side, although the long-tongued Taoist priest who attacked the formation had the upper hand and beat Xu Dao to the point of retreating into the formation within a dozen breaths, its attitude also became serious.
"According to the news, this guy is just a magic weapon. He is not even at the foundation-building level. Why is his magic power so deep!?"
The long-tongued Taoist priest was shocked, and he could only frown secretly and thought: "Is this a disciple of the Taoist Palace?"
Originally, the reason why it was willing to come to Jiangzhou City to test Xu Dao was to pick the weak ones, and it did not want to go to Wutong Mountain to fight with the Shezhao Taoist priests.
But now the situation has changed. Even a Taoist priest in the Ningsha realm is unable to surrender immediately.
A small thought appeared in the mind of the Taoist priest Longtongue:
"Such a person may not only have foundation-building seeds, but his background may be greater than what is rumored. Moreover, this person has such strong magical power. Once he is offended and killed, but he cannot be killed, there will be trouble in the future!"
The head of the long-tongued Taoist priest floated in the sky above the ghost market. It looked at Xu Dao's figure and slowly retracted the scarlet long tongue that attacked the formation.
He frowned, as if he was thinking about something secretly.
Xu Dao noticed the other party's movements and was surprised. He silently stopped breathing and was wary of the Taoist priest's next movements.
What he didn't expect was that a subtle voice sounded in his ears the next moment:
"I have a long tongue. I have met Thunder Messenger. I had a lot of misunderstandings just now. I hope Thunder Messenger can forgive me."
Hearing this, Xu Dao's eyes became even weirder. He didn't expect that the two of them were fighting to death just now, but the other party's attitude suddenly softened.
But Xu Dao thought about it and thought that even if the other party was delaying time, it would not do him any harm, so he returned to:
"You don't know each other without fighting. The Taoist with a long tongue has great magic power. Lei is the one who overestimates his abilities. Thank you to the Taoist for showing mercy."
The numerous Taoist disciples and mortals below were all watching, and Xu Dao also transmitted the message without making any loud noises.
The two stood high in the air for a while, chatting with each other and testing each other.
After a conversation, Xu Dao keenly noticed from the other party's words that this person was afraid of him. And the other party was trying to find out as much as possible about his origins by making insinuations.
So Xu Dao immediately made nonsense, and based on the information he got from Lei Liangxiao's mouth, he boasted about his important position in Lei Zhao, Dao Palace, and Dangyao Division, and frequently hinted to the other party that there was someone above him.
Although Long Tongue is a Taoist priest in the foundation-building realm, he has been living in a remote area in the southwest of the Wu Kingdom for a hundred or two hundred years. He has heard about the Erhai Taoist Palace, but what he knows is not clear after all. He was fooled by Xu Dao
He was stunned for a while.
And there is no reason for it to have an enmity with Xu Dao. It is just following orders and trying to get some benefits.
Now that I discovered that Xu Dao's "soft persimmon" was not soft, on the contrary, it was very hard and could even prick my hands, so I naturally wanted to give up.
The long-tongued Taoist priest thought to himself:
"Rather than fight to the death in Jiangzhou City, form a big feud with this guy, and offend the Demon Slayer and the Taoist Palace, it's better to let it go and wait for others to come over."
In its view, even if it had to kill Xu Dao, it could not bear the responsibility alone and had to go together with other Taoist priests in the Yaksha Sect.
In this case, it is not just one person who has offended the Erhai Taoist Palace and the Monster Control Division, but the Taoist priests of the entire Yaksha Sect will share the responsibility, and the risk of taking action will be small when the time comes.
The long-tongued Taoist priest stared at Xu Dao closely and thought to himself: "Otherwise, if I'm not careful, this person has a trump card and a killing move, and I might be the one who gets killed."
It doesn't want to be as stupid and unlucky as the one-eyed Taoist priest.
In an instant, Taoist Priest Longtongue made up his mind to show off to others and wait for the other Taoist priests who were rushing to Wutong Mountain to arrive.
As for the other Taoist priests of the Yaksha Sect, if they fail at Wutong Mountain or even suffer misfortunes, then they should conserve their strength to avoid being unable to move to another place.
In this way, Longtongue Taoist priest completely changed his condescending and aggressive attitude at first, and began to treat Xu Dao as an equal.
And through the other party's attitude and words, Xu Dao vaguely understood what this guy was thinking. Although he was weird in his heart, he quietly used his magic power and boldly stepped out of the formation again to "fight" with the opponent.
However, although Xu Dao's movements looked fast and fierce, he actually did not use much strength to fight the opponent, but tried his best to protect himself.
The long-tongued Taoist priest on the other side.
The other party was also acting with a strong sense of ferocity, his face was full of anger, and he showed no sign of weakness, but his actions repeatedly let him go.
The two of them were going back and forth, sometimes shouting, sometimes fighting together, and they were having a great time fighting.
The scene above the ghost market changes, the formation keeps shaking, and every time it shakes, the hearts of the people in the city will tremble violently.
They watched nervously as Xu Dao and the two were fighting, fearing that the formation would break apart at the next moment.
What made everyone even more worried was that Xu Dao would go in and out of the formation from time to time, pretending to be out of strength, and a few times he would land on the ground. With a pale face, he ordered the people in the Demon Hall to prepare talismans and elixirs and hand them to him.
Such actions made the Taoist disciples in the formation admire him and worry about him, fearing that after he died outside, no one would be able to stop the attacking Yakshamen Taoist priests.
Among them, Su Jiu said anxiously: "Master, why are you just going out to fight alone? Why don't you call us and let us plunder the formation for you?"
When Chen Wan and the swordsman heard this, they also hurriedly asked for orders.
But when others heard it, even those in the Beitang who were leaning towards Xu Dao, including Bai Zongzong, their faces changed and became as white as Xu Dao's.
These people did not dare to go out to deal with the menacing Taoist priests with long tongues. If they really wanted to do this, they felt that it would be better for them to abandon the city and flee, which would have a greater chance of survival.
Xu Dao listened to Su Jiu's request, he closed his eyes slightly, suppressed the funny thoughts in his heart, and then said seriously:
"Pindao is the demon envoy of Jiangcheng, and it is his duty to stop the powerful enemy. Moreover, the large formation in the city still needs everyone to be in charge. Once the manpower is missing, the formation will be in danger, but it will be easier for the thieves of the Yaksha Gate to succeed."
Xu Dao rolled up his sleeves and drank: "Don't mention this. I'll go and block it again. If I can't stop it, I'll just retreat."
After saying this, he flew up into the sky with his cuttlefish sword and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Hearing these words, Bai Gongfeng and others were extremely ashamed, but even if some of them were filled with blood and wanted to break out of the formation and fight the enemy side by side with Xu Dao, their thoughts were instantly extinguished when they saw the green clouds covering the sky.
Bai Gongfeng bowed to Xu Dao in the sky and drank: "The envoy is fighting to the death. Naturally, we can't just sit idly by and guard the formation as soon as possible."
"Yes." Even if they were not from the Demon Dang Hall, the casual cultivators all agreed with a bang.
………………
Time passes.
Since there were many Taoists in Jiangzhou City and only one Taoist priest came, Yaksha Gate failed and did not really gain the upper hand.
But on the Wutong Mountain side, even if Taoist Toad and Taoist Gecko returned, they activated the formation in time, making several other Taoist priests alert.
After half a day's work, Wutong Temple's formation was finally broken by a group of Taoist priests from Yaksha Gate, interrupting their good practice.
A few Shezhao Taoist priests could only control the formation to self-destruct to block or even kill the Taoist priests of Yaksha Gate.
They barely had time to roll up the rations in the temple, and then rushed towards Jiangzhou City without stopping.
The reason why this group of Shezhao Taoist priests came to Jiangzhou City was because a few of them remembered that there was a large formation in the ghost market in the city that they could rely on. As the nominal masters of the Demon Driving Hall, they could also give orders to the Taoist disciples in the city.
The second is that the rat men sent by Xu Dao earlier returned to Wutong Temple before the Yakshamen Taoist priests attacked, and passed on the news given by Xu Dao to them.
Otherwise, based on their nature, they are more likely to run away from the battlefield, directly move to a different place, find a remote corner to practice, and then come back to find a place.
When the five Shezhao Taoist priests rushed to the vicinity of Jiangzhou City like bereaved dogs, Xu Dao and the Changtongue Taoist priest had already fought for more than a thousand rounds, but their magic powers were secretly restored to perfection.
"Huh!"
While the "fight" was in full swing, the two of them saw the demonic aura appearing on the horizon, their expressions changed, and they let out chuckles.
Xu Daoshi thought to himself: "These guys are finally here."
Long Tongue, on the other hand, was slightly frightened. It looked at the conditions of several Shezhao Taoist priests and found that although they behaved in a hurry, they were orderly and there were no fewer people.
"Damn it! Shouldn't those guys with the bronze head be beaten back instead?"
This made Chang Gu not sure what happened at the Wutong Temple and who had the upper hand. But no matter what, since the Shezhao Taoist priests came over, it had to take the best option and return to the door immediately.
.
Otherwise, it would not have been able to capture Xu Dao. If five more Taoist priests came over and locked onto the surrounding area, it would be difficult for it to leave, and it would have to die on the spot.
Then the long-tongued Taoist priest shouted angrily: "Damn it!"
His movements to attack the ghost market formation paused, he looked at Xu Dao with feigned hatred, and then left without looking back.
Whoosh!
A gust of wind blew by, and his figure shot straight in the direction of the Yaksha Gate like light, and disappeared in an instant.
In an instant, the green clouds covering the ghost market formation also dissipated immediately, billowing towards the Yaksha Gate with the figure of the long-tongued Taoist priest, pulling out a long line of green smoke in the Tianshan Mountains.
The green clouds covering the sky dissipated, and the sunlight from the zenith fell into the formation.
Seeing this scene, the Taoist disciples in the array were overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief, "Run away, run away! The Yaksha Gate has run away!"
What surprised them even more was the appearance of five Shezhao Taoist priests outside the formation. Although these five had not paid much attention to Jiangzhou City, they were all the nominal masters of the Dangyao Hall.
Xu Dao looked at the direction in which the long-tongued Taoist priest disappeared, his eyes flickered for a few times, and then turned to look at the Shezhao Taoist priest who was running towards him.
Five guys with demon heads came running towards them and shouted from afar:
"Messenger Thunder, we are late, how is the city?" It was the voice of Taoist Toad.
As soon as this group of Taoist priests came to seek refuge in a panic, they said that they came to save the people in the city.
Xu Dao did not reveal the faces of these five Taoist priests. He stood above the formation and raised his hands to them in a generous manner: "Lei has met you all."
The five Shezhao Taoist priests rushed over and saw that he was protecting the formation. They were surprised and looked at Xu Dao. They all said hello to him with different thoughts, and there was no look of contempt on their faces.
The six people gathered together and exchanged a few words. Xu Dao ordered the Taoist disciples to open their formations and let the five Taoist priests enter the ghost market.
When all the Taoist priests from Shezhao entered the formation, he became excited for a moment.
After successfully calling these five Taoist priests over, the next thing Xu Dao had to do was to formally plot against the dying Jindan ghosts and gods in the Yaksha Sect...
