Chapter 18
Swallowing Yin Formation of Seven Absolutes
Zhang Yan slashed down with his sword, but it only hit something that looked like a magic treasure. A loud explosion suddenly exploded in his ears, and the scenery in front of him suddenly changed. He had actually fallen into another world. He immediately realized that this should be some kind of void shifting technique (high-quality text first, all are below).
That thing was slashed by his sword ray, but it was not damaged at all, it just tilted its body, at this time it shook again, it seemed like it was going to break through the air and escape.
Zhang Yan shouted clearly, "Where do you think you're going!"
This thing was the culprit that moved him here, how could he let it escape, with a thought, a jade tablet flew out from between his eyebrows, releasing a ray of light, in an instant this thing was fixed in the air.
Zhang Yan went forward and grabbed it, holding it in front of his eyes, he saw that this thing was half black and half white, like a plate or a shuttle, there were two opposite eyes on the front and back, sharp at the front and blunt at the back, shaped like a fat fish, when he held it in his hand, it was still struggling, it seemed to be full of spirituality, but he could not feel a bit of true consciousness in it. This was the first time he saw such a strange talisman, but now was not the time to look into it, he casually put it into his sleeve, and started to observe the surrounding environment.
It was dim here, not up to the sky, not down to the ground, although there was still nether energy pervading, it could not enter his profound light, judging from this, he understood that he should still be in the sixth layer of nether energy, he could not help but think, "That talisman must also have some kind of restriction, or Lu Ge also could not use it freely, otherwise with this kind of method, he could directly move me to the lower three layers of nether energy."
He looked around a few times, casually shot out six Talisman, each flying up and down to explore the way.
Not a moment later, his mind sensed something, other than there being a way out below, there was a way out. The other five Talisman did not fly far before they lost contact. After trying a few more times, he was sure that he was trapped in a formation that was set up using the terrain.
"Five sides are trapped and only one is left," Zhang Yan sneered. This was clearly another one of Lu Ge's tricks. If he really charged out from there, he would immediately fall into a trap.
However, there was no movement from the formation. Most likely, this place was still quite a distance away from Lu Ge and he couldn't make it in time, so he hadn't activated it yet. If Lu Ge arrived and activated the formation, things wouldn't be so peaceful.
Suddenly, Zhang Yan's expression changed. He noticed that the Talisman who was flying downwards had lost contact with him. This was expected, but at the last moment … However, he could sense that under this Gate of Life, other than the nether energy of the lower three levels, there was actually a deep ravine that led straight to the Nether River.
He couldn't help but frown. Although he was teleported here, However, he was confident that with the protection of the "Mellow Shield", no matter how powerful the Nether Qi in the lower three layers was, it would not be able to do anything to him.
However, the water of the Nether River was different. One had to know that this water was formed by the essence of the Earth Yin. Once normal treasures came into contact with it, they would be easily contaminated. Then, it would slowly contaminate their own spiritual energy and eventually become an ordinary item. If normal cultivators were to come into contact with this water, they would either lose their cultivation or lose their life.
Zhang Yan thought to himself, "Lu Ge once said that Mu Hongchen's master, Red Flower Fairy, died because he used the water of the Nether River to contaminate her Golden Core. Now that he purposely brought me here, there's a high chance that he wants to use this water to kill me. "
He stood in the air with his hands behind his back and concentrated on thinking of a way to escape. Not long after, he suddenly remembered that Mountain River Boy had served many cultivators and was very knowledgeable. Instead of thinking about it alone, he might as well ask him. Thus, he shouted, "Where is the boy?"
As he shouted, a boy walked out and bowed respectfully, "Master, Zhang Ju is here."
Zhang Yan pointed below and said, "There's water of the Nether River below. Let me ask you, do you know of any way to deal with this water?"
Zhang Ju thought for a while and said, "Master, I do know of a way. Master's Taiyi Mystic Light is very overbearing. If there isn't much water of the Nether River, it can be refined. Once the water is worn down, it will return to its original source. Then, it will be contaminated by external Qi and turn into Nine Heavens Nether Qi. Then, it won't be hard to deal with."
Zhang Yan thought for a while and said, "This method is too passive. However, this is the only way for now. I'll decide after I see the water of the Nether River. If there's really no other way, I might have to ask Senior North Sea's clone to break this situation."
The clone of the Dark North Heavenly Sword could even fight against the Yuanying cultivators. Unless it was absolutely necessary and his life was on the line, he would definitely not use it.
At this time, he heard Lu Ge's voice come from outside. "Fellow Daoist, I've fought with you for half a day and I'm very impressed by your methods. I haven't asked for your name yet."
Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "I'm Zhang Yan."
"So it's Fellow Daoist Zhang. I just said I was willing to take you as my disciple, but based on your abilities, it looks like I was boasting before. However, I can't let you go and reveal my secrets here. Today, I'll have to bury you here. "
Zhang Yan scoffed coldly and said, "You and I both know this already. Why say such meaningless words?"
A loud laugh came from outside. "I've been too talkative. Alright, then please try my Fellow Daoist's Devouring Yin Formation of Seven Absolutes."
As the voice landed, Lu Ge, who was standing outside the formation, waved his horsetail whisk and the formation was activated.
This "Seven Absolutes Devouring Yin Formation" had a total of seven seals, and only the bottom one was open. However, every two hours, this door could attract the nether qi of the Nether River below the seventh layer, and continuously pour it into the formation (high-quality text first, all at%).
However, this was not the most powerful thing. If the ghostly qi could not harm the person trapped, the formation would automatically suck them away. Once the ghostly qi was removed, a cold wind would blow in the Styx River. When this wind came, the water of the Styx River would be swept up. Even if one had treasures to protect them, they would sooner or later be polluted by the Styx River and become mortal. When all their treasures were gone, they could not hold on any longer and could only die in the formation.
At this moment, within the formation, rumbling sounds came from the ravine below, like a raging torrent, rolling and surging. The seventh level 'Desolate Hatred Qi' was the first to be drawn by the formation and rose up. Apart from being able to invade one's body and destroy flesh and bones, this Desolate Hatred Qi could also arouse all kinds of dissatisfaction and hatred in the depths of one's heart, igniting obsessions and turning them into demons, causing them to burn to death.
Seeing this Qi surging up, Zhang Yan sneered. The profound light above his head fell down and separated the Qi. As soon as this Desolate Hatred Qi appeared, it was actually scattered by the profound light of golden fire.
Lu Ge, who was outside, did not expect this layer of Qi to be able to do anything to Zhang Yan. He just blindly urged the formation and drew in the eighth level 'Soul Dispersing Evil Qi'.
This Qi was invisible and did not affect the body. It only harmed the soul. Just a little bit of it would cause the mind of the person who was hit to be immediately confused. After a long time, they would turn into a true demon that only knew how to devour flesh and blood and devour Qi.
Zhang Yan knew that this Qi was no longer something that the profound light could resist. He shouted loudly and raised his hand to summon the 'Mellow Barrier'.
This magic treasure flipped in the air and in an instant, rays of light scattered down and covered him. No matter how the Soul Dispersing Evil Qi surrounded him, it did not move at all.
Seeing this, the Mountain River Boy also shouted and summoned the Mountain and River Diagram. A hundred zhang long diagram slowly unfolded in the air. He let go of his hands and feet to absorb the Soul Dispersing Evil Qi. In less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the seventh level of Qi that surged up from below was also swept away.
As soon as this Qi disappeared, the ninth level 'Dark Spirit Death Qi' did not want to be outdone. Compared to the previous eight types of Qi, this Qi was even more ferocious. With just a few glances from afar, it could attract one's soul. If one could not control it, one would fall into the River Styx and be trapped within, never to be reincarnated again.
As long as the water of the River Styx did not come up, Mountain River Boy was naturally not afraid. However, he knew how powerful this Dark Spirit Death Qi was. Therefore, before the Dark Spirit Death Qi reached him, he took the initiative to suppress the Mountain and River Diagram and absorbed it with all his strength. Not a single strand of Dark Spirit Death Qi leaked out.
Roughly an hour later, the ninth layer of "Dark Spirit Vanishing Qi" was also completely absorbed.
Lu Ge shouted from outside, "Fellow Zhang, although I don't know what method you used, I also admire you for being able to remove the three levels of Dark Spirit Death Qi in one breath. However, when the Yin Wind comes and the River Styx floods, even if you have a magic treasure to protect yourself, how long can you last?"
Zhang Yan knew that the other party was trying to use words to shake his confidence. He smiled faintly and ignored it. (High-quality text first, everything is%)
At this moment, a mournful cry suddenly came from below, as if thousands of ghosts were crying together. The wind and clouds were gloomy. Mountain River Boy's face couldn't help but tighten and said, "Master, be careful. This is the Yin Wind, I can no longer do anything."
Zhang Yan nodded and looked down. He saw a dim yellow wave of air pouring in from the ravine. Once it entered the formation, it spun left and right, bringing with it endless mournful wails and screams.
For a moment, even the light of the 'Mellow Shield of Zai He' was shaking non-stop, as if it was about to be blown away.
Zhang Yan knew that although the Yin Wind seemed fierce, it actually couldn't do anything to him. He could only calm his mind and pay attention to see if there was any water of the River Styx being carried up.
After a moment of careful observation, indeed, in the Yin Wind, there were a few drops of black water flying around. The dim color made one feel short of breath and dizzy. He couldn't help but exclaim in his heart that it was powerful. Without hesitation, he immediately separated a Taiyi Xuan Light and hit the black water. However, when this Xuan Light went up, it only dissipated a little bit of the Styx water, and the Xuan Light suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Yan seemed to have expected this since the beginning. He took a deep breath and formed seals with his technique, and then he successively struck out over 100 strands of Grand Unity Profound Light to finally completely grind away this drop of water from the Nether River, and it transformed into the purest strand of nether qi that drifted in midair.
However, this Dark Spirit Qi was formed from the Yin Qi of the Earth, and it was best at polluting other Spiritual Qi. Even Mountain River Child didn't dare to absorb it casually, fearing that once he absorbed it, it would pollute his own Spiritual Qi. He could only wait for it to be mixed with other Qi and turn into one of the nine types of Dark Spirit Qi. Just Now, he dared to absorb it.
Next, Zhang Yan did the same and dissipated the other drops of the River Styx. After doing this, even with his deep and long breath, he had to take out a medicinal pill and swallow it. He thought in his heart, "Just a few drops of the River Styx water is so powerful. If I wait for the Yin Wind to carry a large amount of the River Styx water up, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist it."
However, at this moment, his body suddenly trembled. The three drops of Serene Yin Heavy Water that were originally in his Qi Sea were trembling non-stop, as if they were about to move. He thought in his heart, "Just a few drops of the River Styx water is so powerful. If I wait for the Yin Wind to carry a large amount of the River Styx water up, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist it."
As soon as these three drops of Serene Yin Heavy Water appeared, they were like fierce beasts. They spun in the air and actually fought for food with the few wisps of pure Dark Spirit Qi. They were completely absorbed into their bodies, and then fell back into his body.
