The thin old man sighed, but the worried look on his face did not completely disappear.
The four of them had just formed a group. Qiu Changyuan, who had the highest level of cultivation, disdained Lu Xuan, a spiritual planter, because of his own experience. He was an early-stage foundation-building monk from a small sect. Although he was determined to eliminate the discord between them,
But he spoke softly, which made him feel that the future of the group was bleak.
Lu Xuan didn't care about this at all, and followed the three of them to the edge of the city.
"Fellow Daoist Sun, isn't there a large array of protection on the outside of Black Star City? Do you need to patrol and inspect it every day?"
He transmitted a message to the thin old man.
"It is true that there is a sixth-grade city defense formation, which was jointly arranged by several great masters of pill formation."
The old man nodded.
"However, the area of Black Star City is too large. If the formation is activated every day, the amount of spiritual stones consumed will be an astronomical number. Therefore, the formation is only activated at certain key locations on the edge of the city, and most of the other areas are relatively weak.
"
"Only at critical moments will the formation be activated without reservation."
The thin old man explained to Lu Xuan in detail.
The four people passed through the spiritual energy shield and came to the outside of the city. They spread out, keeping a distance from each other that could respond to each other at any time, and flew around the spiritual energy shield at high speed.
His spiritual consciousness stirred, exploring his surroundings.
Lu Xuan showed his spiritual consciousness to the level of a normal monk in the middle stage of foundation building, and carefully inspected the surroundings.
Half a day passed and nothing happened.
However, the four of them did not slack off because of this and continued to patrol a certain area inside and outside the city.
"Huh? There is a situation."
Lu Xuan's expression did not change at all, and he thought to himself.
Among the four, he has the highest level of cultivation. In the later stage of foundation building, he also practiced the fifth-grade "Shenyan Sutra" that can strengthen spiritual consciousness. In addition, there are also five-grade Yun Shentie in the sea of consciousness to nourish spiritual consciousness, so the spiritual consciousness far exceeds
Ordinary monks of the same level.
In his spiritual perception, a group of demonic birds were quickly rushing towards Black Star City.
"Something is coming!"
After about ten breaths, Qiu Changyuan discovered the traces of the demon bird and alerted Lu Xuan and the others.
When the three of them heard this, they felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They each took out their magic weapons and talismans and prepared their formations.
"Bah!"
A sharp whistling sound came from Lu Xuan's ears. The whistling sound seemed to pierce the eardrums, causing the blood and energy in his body to surge.
Looking up, more than a dozen giant monster birds appeared in sight.
The demon bird has broad fleshy wings that cover the sky and the sun when spread out. It has a black sarcoma on its head, and the surrounding sarcoma is filled with evil spirits, making it very difficult to mess with at first glance.
When the demon bird discovered Lu Xuan and the others, its howl became even more passionate and excited, its fleshy wings flapped a little faster, and a fishy wind could be heard from far away.
High in the sky, the black tumors on the demon bird's head suddenly swelled, the demonic power surged out crazily, and dark black air blades poured down like heavy rain, densely packed and making bursts of howling sounds.
"The evil beast shall die!"
Qiu Changyuan snorted coldly, and a six-winged red giant scorpion shot out. He himself stood on a white jade-like giant eagle monster, facing the giant monster bird head-on.
Not to be outdone, Meng Yue threw out a series of talismans from her sleeves, and countless low-level spells such as wind blades, ice spikes, and earth cones flew towards the demonic bird.
As for the thin old man Sun Yunming, his body was swam wildly by spiritual power. Dozens of dark black spears formed instantly and shot towards the demonic birds in the air like sharp arrows.
Lu Xuan stared intently at the air blades falling like a torrential rain. The green spiritual light emerged from his feet, and his body turned into a stream of light. He was extremely flexible and light and avoided the dense attacks of the air blades.
Just as he was about to land, suddenly, there was a gust of fishy wind from above and behind him. In his spiritual perception, a huge demon bird sneaked up behind him, and slapped Lu Xuan fiercely with its broad fleshy wings.
Lu Xuan looked calm, the wind and thunder sword in his hand sizzled, and countless electric arcs jumped. In an instant, a sword energy as thick as an arm shot out, wrapped in thunder and black wind, and instantly spanned a distance of ten feet and hit the demon bird's fleshy wings.
A burnt black hole appeared directly in the thick fleshy wings, and the thunder continued unabated, jumping and spreading on the fleshy wings, completely destroying one of the demon bird's wings.
Lu Xuan rose into the sky like a sharp arrow and activated the "Starlight Sword Technique". A starlight lit up, and the sword energy passed through and sank into the black tumor on the demon bird's head.
The sword energy was too fast, and the demon bird couldn't dodge it. In pain, it kept rolling in the air.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan sneered, and dozens of wind and thunder sword energy formed a lightning network, hitting the demon bird's body one by one.
The huge demon bird turned into a body full of holes and fell straight down, stirring up large and small rock fragments.
He has an extremely rare and rare fourth-grade wind and thunder sword in his hand, and has absorbed a lot of wind and thunder sword spirit experience packs. In addition, the flying sword is integrated into the Xunlei Sword Pill that comes from the same source. It can be said that it is his most powerful conventional method at present.
He strolled leisurely, dodging the attacks of huge monster birds in the air. Wind and thunder sword energy shot out from all directions, like antelopes hanging their horns, leaving no trace. In addition, the speed was extremely fast, and monster birds could rarely escape.
Soon, of the dozen or so giant demonic birds, he was able to take down four by himself, and even more by joining forces with the other three.
The ground was covered with the corpses of demonic birds, and the smell of blood was extremely strong and could be smelled from a distance.
"I didn't expect Senior Brother Lu to be so skilled in swordsmanship. He deserves to be from the Tianjian Sect."
The gentle female cultivator landed gracefully on the ground, looked at Lu Xuan, smiled and said with a bit of amazement in her tone.
"It's far inferior to Fellow Daoist Meng's ability to control the talismans."
Lu Xuan replied that he had just teamed up with Meng Yue to deal with a few demonic birds, and saw the Lingxiao Sect monk's exquisite talisman control methods.
The many talismans in her hands seemed to have spirituality, and they cooperated perfectly with each other, stimulating the power of a large number of talismans to the greatest extent, which greatly benefited Lu Xuan, who also owned many talismans.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, Friend Daoist Lu, is this what you call a little knowledge of sword techniques?!"
The thin old man came over and smiled broadly.
"If you say you have a little knowledge, wouldn't it mean that the old man has been practicing swordsmanship for decades, all in vain?"
"Compared with the other senior brothers in the sect, I really only know a little bit about it."
The figures of Jian Wuxia, Shen Ye and others flashed in Lu Xuan's mind, and he said modestly.
"This..."
The thin old man was speechless and choked for a moment.
Although he was dissatisfied with being concealed by Lu Xuan, he felt a little more happy after seeing Lu Xuan's pure swordsmanship.
The stronger his teammates are, the higher the probability that he will survive. As a monk from a small sect, he still understands this.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, you have killed the most demons, so you should be chosen first."
Qiu Changyuan walked over, his tone still indifferent, but since he took the initiative to let Lu Xuan choose, he expressed his inner thoughts clearly.
Lu Xuan's demon-killing efficiency completely convinced Qiu Changyuan, who was originally a little dissatisfied because of his status as a spiritual planter.
Proposing to let Lu Xuan choose the trophies was a way of showing his attitude.
