In Lin Ji's consciousness, the aura of the surrounding heaven and earth seemed to be drained away the moment Nangong Limeng raised his hand.
Then, the invisible blade transformed from the extremely condensed spiritual energy fell on the Xanthium Mountain in the distance in an instant at a speed that was almost difficult to react.
Peng!
A muffled sound came from a distance, mixed with echoes.
The momentum generated by Nangong Limeng's action this time did not seem to be as great as Lin Ji imagined.
But then, Lin Ji realized that he was wrong.
Because a few miles away on Xanthium Mountain, a huge creature suddenly appeared.
"squeak!
!”
The screams echoed across the sky.
It was a demon that Lin Ji had never seen before.
It has the head of a griffin and the body of a lion, with two wings on its ribs, and the four claws under its body glow with green light, as if it is stepping on clouds.
The back of the neck has a green mane, and the tail is also green.
Even though they were several miles apart, the huge monster body was almost comparable to that of Xang Er Mountain.
At this moment, the monster that Lin Ji couldn't recognize was screaming in pain. It had just blocked Nangong Limeng's method, and at this moment, its right wing was already bleeding profusely.
.
At the same time that the giant monster appeared, the monks around them all opened their eyes in shock when they saw this scene.
"How dare the demon race run wild in Jinling?!"
"What kind of demon clan is that? There is no record of such a demon among the major clans in the demon country."
"Could it be an ancient giant monster?"
"Let's see how the Taoist seniors respond."
Listening to the discussions of the Japanese monks who were still staying in the same place, Lin Ji did not expect that even the local monks could not recognize the origin of the giant monster.
At the same time, Nangong Limeng, who was above, had a cold face and said nothing, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
When her figure appeared again, she was already in front of Xanthium Mountain.
She raised her hands, but they were still empty. A faint blue-black cloud appeared behind her. The clouds were accompanied by the sound of howling ghosts and wolves, and most of the originally clear sky became dark in an instant.
Seeing this scene, Lin Jitong shrank.
"Is that the manifestation of Nangong Limeng's avenue? What avenue is this?"
"It's the path of evil spirits."
I don't know when, Master Gu Hong has arrived next to Lin Ji.
Seeing that Lin Ji was a little surprised, he said: "I came here at the invitation of the head of the Nangong family. I am not familiar with the Taoist monks in Jinling City. I might as well talk to you."
While he was talking, the clouds in the sky became increasingly dense, and thousands of evil spirits could already be seen writhing in the clouds.
Seeing this scene, before Lin Ji asked, Master Gu Hong said: "Nangong Limeng fell into a murderous calamity a hundred years ago. She used killing to stop the fight, but because of the excessive killing, she became knotted in her heart, so when she entered Taoism
She manifested the souls of her dead men, and thus the evil spirits attained enlightenment."
After a pause, Master Gu Hong smiled bitterly in a low voice and said: "Don't be deceived by her usual heroic spirit. This woman is really ruthless in her actions. Even if I am a poor Taoist, I don't want to be her enemy."
."
Hearing this, Lin Ji's eyes stayed in front of Xang Er Mountain.
He watched helplessly as thousands of evil ghosts in the clouds and mist wandered around the giant demon clan. If the giant demon slacked even a little bit, thousands of evil ghosts would immediately descend on him.
Just looking at the scene, Nangong Limeng has the upper hand.
"The evil ghost's enlightenment sounds like an evil way."
"What does it sound like? This is an evil way. Even among evil ways, it is a first-class evil way! Do you know the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect?"
"The Wangui Sect in Yanzhou?" Lin Ji thought of Zhou Li who died in his hands. That Zhou Li was the former elder of the Wangui Sect.
"The Wangui Sect's ghost refining is just to catch some lonely wild ghosts and raise them. Even so, this sinister method is despised by Jiuzhou monks, but Nangong Limeng is different."
"How is it different?"
"Her evil ghost path is to summon ghosts from heaven and earth. These ghosts cannot disobey the Dao, and naturally they cannot disobey her."
"That's it?"
"A ghost will disappear once it comes." Master Gu Hong said softly.
Lin Ji looked surprised.
"You came here once and your soul disappeared? You even lost the chance of reincarnation?"
"Gone."
"What kind of cause and effect is this? Can she bear it?"
As he spoke, Lin Ji's eyes turned into causal eyes, one golden and one black. When he raised his head and looked at Nangong Limeng, he could no longer see her figure. He could only see the black light all over the sky.
To fill the world in your eyes.
"This is no longer a black line..." Lin Ji felt a little scared.
This black light all over the sky is the cause and effect of those ghosts in the clouds, and Nangong Limeng will annihilate so many causes and effects in one move, and this black light all over the sky will eventually fall on her.
"Is this your path of cause and effect?" Master Gu Hong looked at the changes in Lin Ji's eyes with interest and asked, "What did you see?"
"Seeing such a sin is enough to make God even look down upon him and take the initiative to impose divine punishment, even to the point of continuing to die." Lin Ji said with a sigh, "This is definitely not something that a monk who has entered the Taoist realm can bear, even Nangong Limeng.
"
"I don't understand this." Master Gu Hong shook his head and said.
Each monk's path to Taoism is different, and it is far from being clear in a few words.
Lin Ji's eyes gradually returned to normal. He couldn't understand Nangong Limeng's methods, but he thought that this so-called evil ghost path must have some means that he couldn't understand to circumvent this heinous cause and effect.
"Master, what is the origin of that giant monster?" Lin Ji asked again.
"That's a ferocious beast."
"A ferocious beast?"
"The bloodline of the ancient monster clan." Master Gu Hong said in a calm tone, "The sixth realm is when you are born, and the seventh realm is when you grow up. Even if you have better qualifications, even the eighth realm is not too difficult. This
It’s really enviable to wait for blood.”
"That ferocious beast is one of the only two ferocious beasts left in the Demon Kingdom. It takes a thousand years for a ferocious beast to reach adulthood, but this one has lived for more than two thousand years."
Hearing this, Lin Ji's attention was focused on Master Gu Hong's tone.
"The real person already knew that the ferocious beast was coming?"
A slight smile appeared on the corner of Gu Hong's mouth, and he looked back at Lin Ji.
"yes."
"Is this why you were invited to Jinling City?"
"That's not entirely true. There is also the matter of Penglai Island in the south. The true dragon cemetery is too attractive. No one is willing to give up the body of a true dragon, even the Taiyi Sect."
Lin Ji ignored this, pointed to the ferocious beast in the distance and asked, "So Nangong Limeng had already known that the ferocious beast was coming? If that was the case, why did he let it cause trouble before going to deal with it?"
As he spoke, Lin Ji noticed that the smile on Master Gu Hong's face grew stronger.
There was some ominous premonition in his heart.
As soon as these premonitions appeared, they soon evolved into an incomparable feeling of heartache, a suffocating feeling of heartbeat that Lin Ji had not felt for a long time.
"Could it be that the ferocious beast is not the only one from the demon clan?!"
Master Gu Hong was noncommittal, but his eyes turned to the horizon in another direction.
