"I just threw some gold. These people jumped in by themselves. It has nothing to do with me," the middle-aged scholar said leisurely as he opened his fan with one hand.
Shen Luo knew that this person was up to no good, so he ignored him. He did not care about exposing his identity and raised his hand to grab the void below the river.
The river below splashed, and more than a dozen water palms emerged. They grabbed the people who had jumped into the river and were about to force them ashore.
But at this moment, the entire river suddenly surged. More than a dozen tentacle-like black gas emerged from the river and entangled the water palms like pythons, preventing them from getting close to the people in the river.
A layer of blood-red light appeared in the eyes of the people in the river. Their faces were full of fanaticism. They acted as if they did not see the fight around them and dived to the bottom of the river. It seemed that their minds were controlled by some kind of enchantment.
Shen Luo's face changed color. He looked at the middle-aged scholar next to him, and his face was even more shocked.
The middle-aged scholar who was standing next to him just now had disappeared into thin air.
He had been using his Divine Sense to sense the situation around him, but he did not notice when the scholar disappeared.
"There is indeed something wrong with that person." He stomped his feet in annoyance.
But now was not the time to search for the middle-aged scholar. The black gas in the river was evil. It was not a good thing at first glance. The black gas prevented him from rescuing the people in the river. There must have been a major change at the bottom of the river. He had to rescue those people as soon as possible.
Shen Luo leaped out and pounced toward Hanoi.
The black gas in the river was more vigorous. More than a dozen thick black tentacles shot out. They danced wildly and rolled toward him.
"Humph!"
Shen Luo snorted coldly. A red sword light lit up under him. It supported his body and moved sideways like lightning, avoiding the black tentacles.
At the same time, he quickly made a gesture with his hands, and a blue light shone between his fingers.
Rumble!
The river fluctuated violently, forming a whirlpool of twenty to thirty feet. All the black tentacles that emerged from the bottom of the river were sucked in.
The thunder-like sound of the water came from the center of the whirlpool, and a strong tearing force burst out.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
The black tentacles that emerged from the bottom of the river were all torn apart and dissipated into black mist. However, the people in the river were safe and sound. Shen Luo controlled the water flow to avoid those people.
Even so, those people were still swept away by the current.
Shen Luo was about to conjure another water palm to send the commoners ashore.
At this moment, a loud buzzing sound suddenly came from the bottom of the river. A golden pillar of light that was hundreds of meters thick rose up from the bottom of the river and shot straight into the sky. There were also countless sword shadows of various sizes flashing within the pillar of light, and an extremely sharp fluctuation of sword Qi erupted from it.
The whirlpool created by Shen Luo's mana and the remaining black gas were easily destroyed by this sword aura.
The people in Hei Nei were also instantly cut into pieces by the sword energy. They did not even have time to scream before they were turned into meat paste.
Shen Luo was also affected by the golden pillar of light. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately flew back on his sword. At the same time, he summoned the Golden Celestial Robe to protect his body.
With a loud "Dang", a thick sword shadow flashed from the golden pillar of light and slashed on the bell-shaped shield. He was sent flying along with the shield.
After flying for more than a hundred feet, Shen Luo stabilized his body. The Golden Celestial Robe on top of his head was buzzing and trembling. The bell-shaped shield around him was trembling violently. There was a huge cut on it, but it was not completely cut open.
Shen Luo's face revealed a look of joy. The defensive power of the Golden Celestial Robe was unexpectedly strong. The sword shadow just now was far beyond the level of the Soul Condensation Stage. It was vaguely comparable to the attack of an Out of Aperture Stage cultivator. It was actually blocked by the bell.
Then he saw the river stained with blood. The smile on his face froze. He used his divine sense to explore below and his face instantly turned pale.
"Not good!" Shen Luo roared in a low voice.
He did not resent the sword formation in the river. This sword formation was just an unintelligent and inanimate object. After it was triggered, it automatically operated and killed the people in the formation.
What he hated was the middle-aged scholar who caused so many people to die in vain here.
However, the white-robed scholar was nowhere to be seen. Even if he had resentment in his heart, he had nowhere to vent it. He could only forcibly suppress it.
"What's the matter with this golden pillar of light … The sword shadows inside seem to form a sword formation. Could this be the formation formed by the Sword Qi of the Dragon Slaying Sword that the scholar mentioned? But why did Wei Zheng set up this formation here? And why did the scholar lead the people into the river and trigger the sword formation? "Shen Luo's heart was filled with countless doubts.
The sound of the battle in the river spread far and wide. Many people nearby gathered.
"Look, there's an immortal master over there!"
"What is this golden light? It's so scary."
The people near the river pointed at Shen Luo and the golden pillar of light in the river and discussed animatedly.
However, some bold people thought that the golden light in the river was a treasure that was about to be born. They jumped into the river without hesitation and swam toward the sword formation.
Although the golden sword formation had just killed more than ten people, their corpses sank to the bottom of the river. Moreover, the golden pillar of light was too dazzling and covered the bloodstained river. The other people did not see it.
"Everyone, that golden light is dangerous. Don't go near it!" Shen Luo hurriedly shouted and raised his hand to point at the river.
"Splash!" Two walls of water rose from the river and blocked the few people who did not know whether they were dead or alive.
At this moment, something happened within the golden sword formation. Suddenly, strands of viscous, blood-red light shot out, and the heavy smell of blood permeated the air. Endless roars rang out from the golden sword formation as well.
Although the roar was not very loud, it seemed to contain a frightening power. The people nearby covered their ears with their hands and showed a painful expression. Only then did they realize the danger and wanted to escape.
However, their feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. No matter how hard they tried, they could not move their feet. Their bodies were completely out of their control.
Shen Luo naturally heard the roar and felt a little dizzy. However, after he activated his magic power to protect his body, the dizziness quickly disappeared.
Moreover, he felt that the roar was strangely familiar.
He naturally noticed the plight of the people on the river, but he could not do anything. He was about to use the water to send these people far away.
"Roar!"
The roar in the golden sword formation suddenly became ten times louder. Shen Luo's chest was suddenly hit by a heavy hammer, and his face turned pale.
The people on the river bank screamed even more. Dozens of people fell to the ground and could not get up. They held their heads and screamed.
The river in the golden sword formation rolled violently as if it was boiling. An object the size of a carriage slowly emerged. It turned out to be a huge golden beast's head.
The beast's head was covered with golden scales. There were two coral-shaped golden horns on top of its head. Its eyes were like copper bells and there were whiskers on its chin. It was actually a dragon's head.
However, a layer of blood light appeared on the dragon's head. It looked very evil.
"A dragon's head!" Shen Luo's expression changed greatly.
"The lonely dragon's head is indeed here! Wei Zheng, you are really shameless! " The void near the golden light pillar moved and the figure of the white-robed scholar appeared out of thin air. After a sneer, he grabbed the void with both hands.
Two black lights shot out from his palms and turned into two black dragon claws the size of a house. They sank into the golden light pillar and grabbed the dragon's head.
The sword formation in the light pillar immediately reacted. Countless large and small sword shadows released golden light and slashed the two black dragon claws.
A series of loud "ping ping ping ping" noises exploded!
The black dragon claws were suddenly hit by the black gas and trembled. However, they were not destroyed immediately. They still forced their way into the golden light sword formation and grabbed the dragon's head.
