Chapter 81 Chapter 81 The Immortal Riding a Broken Broom to Heaven! ...
Tu Yi Village was brutally murdered by the demons.
Among the dozens of households in the village, Yang Yuan was the only one left, except those who had married or traveled far away. The victims also included Yang Yuan's parents and relatives.
Yang Yuan was in so much pain that he staggered to his feet and wanted to go into the village to take a look, but was stopped by everyone.
"The crow's corpse is still on the ground! There is a formation buried in the village. If you enter rashly, you will die!" Ling Hanzhang said.
Yang Yuan seemed to have found a life-saving straw and knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately.
"My fellow immortals, you have great magical powers. Please save my fellow villagers... and my father and mother. They have stayed in the village all year round and rarely leave. They must have been killed! Is there any way to save them?"
Ling Hanzhang hurried to help him up, but Yang Yuan refused to get up and kept kowtowing.
Ji Ziheng couldn't bear to watch, and said in a cold voice: "The dead cannot be resurrected! If there is still a breath left, there is still a chance of saving. If there are only a few bones left, even if there is a miracle doctor here, I am afraid there is nothing he can do!"
Yang Yuan naturally understood this truth.
He cried for a while, then choked up and said, "... Then please, all the immortals, break this formation, and let me collect the bodies of my fellow villagers."
Gu Jingyun said, "It's my job. Hanzhang, help him up and take him to the side to rest for a while."
Ling Hanzhang hurriedly did as he was told, helped the limp Yang Yuan up, and stepped back dozens of steps to avoid affecting others in breaking the formation.
Fortunately, Xia Wenji was saved and now there is someone to interrogate him.
Xia Wenji was in a semi-crazy state, with confused memories. No matter how he was tortured or the truth potion was used, only two or three out of ten questions he asked were useful.
Everyone only knew that the Great Elder brought him here and asked him to carve this formation.
The effect of the formation is to trap the villagers in the formation and integrate their flesh and blood into the formation. The converted magic energy can greatly enhance the power of Xia Wenji's magic skills.
The price is an increasingly worse mental state and more serious amnesia. The obsessive state not only fails to be alleviated, but becomes more and more serious.
As for who the "Great Elder" is, why he has targeted Tu Yicun, and whether the formation has any other functions... no one knows.
Ji Ziheng has led the Sirius Guards to scout around the village. Song Hua is also observing the formation and using various means to try to break it from the outside.
Xia Wenji said that the formation had been completed, and even he himself did not dare to stay in the formation for a long time, for fear that his flesh and blood would be melted.
Gu Jingyun caught a wild beast and threw it into the formation to try it out. Just like the crow before, its flesh and blood were all integrated into the formation, leaving only a skeleton.
The only difference is that the time it takes to be swallowed becomes longer.
The formation would only appear when prey appeared. The rest of the time, it would be hidden underground.
Jiang Yan felt that the runes of the formation looked very familiar, but the formation only appeared for a short time and he could not see it clearly before it disappeared.
Seeing that he looked strange, Gu Jingyun leaned close to Jiang Yan's ear and whispered:
"Ayan, do you have any idea?"
The man just leaned forward slightly and Jiang Yan shrank his neck.
It was a completely subconscious action.
Gu Jingyun paused.
Jiang Yan's eyes were evasive.
The two of them were too close. It was fine in the past, but today... whenever Gu Jingyun got close to his ear, he would think of that kiss.
Jiang Yan silently said in his heart:
Jingyun is my brother, why should I hide from him? These evasive actions were too distant, as if she didn't trust Gu Jingyun and didn't want to be close to him.
Don't make people sad for no reason.
Besides, business is important!
Jiang Yan put away all those messy thoughts and said to Gu Jingyun: "I see that the formation is very familiar, and the power surging in it does not seem to be the spiritual power of the cultivation world."
"You mean... that's a magic circle?" Gu Jingyun asked.
"It's very likely." Jiang Yan said, "Brother, don't forget, the demons are best at necromancy. They can use magic circles to summon ghouls."
Gu Jingyun looked grim: "What kind of medium is needed to summon a ghoul?"
Jiang Yan: "Of course it's the refined bones..."
Jiang Yan was slightly startled, and his mind suddenly came to its senses.
The bones after refining?
There is a whole village in front of me!
"...The demons are secretly preparing an army of zombies? They want to counterattack the human world?" Jiang Yan said in horror.
"The Five Continents are vast, with mountains and rivers, and there are many similar hidden villages." Gu Jingyun said in a deep voice.
But they didn't know how many more villages had fallen into the hands of the demons.
This is the most terrible thing.
"Can the Heavenly Wolf Guard investigate?" Jiang Yan held on to a glimmer of hope.
"No." Gu Jingyun shook his head: "No matter how powerful the Heavenly Wolf Guards are, they can't handle the weak forces. If we search by ourselves, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky, and as slow as an ant."
"What should we do?" Jiang Yan thought for a moment and said, "Why not notify all the major sects and ask them to send people to investigate, just like the law enforcement team and take joint action."
Gu Jingyun nodded.
This is a good idea. He cannot rely on himself to investigate, the efficiency is too low. But other sects may not be reliable, and he must be careful whether there are spies among them. He must think twice before taking any action.
"We'll discuss this later. Let's destroy the formation in front of us first." Gu Jingyun said.
Jiang Yan was distressed: "It is easy to destroy it. But breaking it violently will cause the formation diagram to shatter. If I can see the formation diagram clearly, I may be able to understand it and further estimate the intentions of the demons."
"You need time, right?" Gu Jingyun asked.
"Well, let's get someone to catch two more large wild beasts." Jiang Yan said.
"No need." Gu Jingyun said.
Jiang Yan was just wondering when he saw Gu Jingyun suddenly step into the formation.
"!!"
Jiang Yan's heart tightened, and his mind went blank. He rushed forward: "Brother, what are you doing——!"
The people around heard his shout, looked over, saw this scene, and rushed over immediately.
"Don't come over here! I'm buying time for the Immortal Lord to break the formation!"
Gu Jingyun shouted sternly: "Look carefully, the formation cannot devour me."
Jiang Yan stopped in front of the formation and took a closer look.
The blood-red formation diagram reappeared, condensing into a blood-red giant hand like an eagle's claw, grabbing towards Gu Jingyun.
Gu Jingyun's feet stepped on the formation, and a layer of light blue light lingered around his body, forming a protective shield that prevented any evil creatures from getting in.
The bloody hand wanted to grab him, but its fingertips scratched the spiritual power shield, making a sharp and piercing sound.
"If you want to eat me, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so." Gu Jingyun sneered, and a powerful spiritual power surged, stepping on the bloody hand.
Bloody Hand felt the pain and became even angrier.
The formation buried underground completely emerged.
Jiang Yan was cheered up and went to see it without Gu Jingyun's reminder.
The formation is huge and will float in the air when it appears.
The village was on a higher ground, and Jiang Yan was at the bottom, unable to see the entire formation.
"..." Jiang Yan wanted to cry but had no tears. His brother was inside, who would take him flying?
Jiang Yan was just about to find Ling Hanzhang to take him flying on a sword when his eyes swept past the village gate.
There was a backpack on the ground and a big broom lying on it. It had not been used for a long time and was covered with dust.
The brooms used in rural areas are very sturdy and it doesn’t matter if they are not used for a long time.
It would be nice to have a broom!
Jiang Yan was ecstatic.
"I'll get a broom!" Jiang Yan said.
Jiang Yan sprinted a hundred meters to get the broom. The place was only half an inch away from the formation. If he deviated a little, he would accidentally step into the formation.
"Ji Ziheng, protect him!" Gu Jingyun shouted. He was in the formation, in the center of the formation attack, and the soil under his feet turned into a blood swamp, making it difficult for him to move.
Ji Ziheng quickly followed and drew his sword.
While Jiang Yan was bending over to grab the broom, Bloody Hand launched a fierce attack on him, trying to drag him into the formation.
Ji Ziheng quickly raised his knife and stepped forward to block. He stretched out his arm and swung the knife, the blade was sharp, and cut the bloody hand horizontally.
The bloody hand broke into countless drops of blood and retracted into the formation.
Ji Ziheng did not want to fight, and followed Jing Yun's instructions to protect Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan picked up a tattered broom and felt like he had found a treasure.
Everyone wondered, why was the Immortal holding a broom?
Jiang Yan held the broom sideways, sat on it, bent his knees slightly, and took a horse stance.
Everyone: “???”
Gu Jingyun: "..."
Could this be what Ayan meant by flying on a broomstick?
Jiang Yan held the broom handle in one hand and the magic wand in the other.
He chanted the flying spell in a low voice, waving his hands rhythmically as the magic power surged, and at the moment the last syllable fell, the tip of the wand pointed at the broom.
A beam of white light burst out from the tip of the wand.
The broom has been exposed to wind, sun and rain, and it is fortunate that it has not rotted. I didn't expect that there would be a moment of heaven's help in its broom career.
Everyone was stunned: “…………”
The Immortal King rode a rotten broom to the sky!!!
Gu Jingyun: "..."
Is this the flying tool commonly used in the magical world?
A broken broom is too shabby. I'll prepare a better one for Ayan later.
Blood Hand took advantage of Gu Jingyun's distraction to increase the speed of devouring, and the formation operated even faster.
Gu Jingyun had solid training, and his spiritual power was as deep as an abyss. He silently increased his spiritual power output to resist, and his expression remained unchanged.
The broom was shaking as if it would fall apart in the next second, and Jiang Yan had to carefully control his magic power.
There can’t be insufficient magic power, causing the broom to fall down; nor can there be too much magic power, causing the broom to burst.
The broom was pulled by magic and suspended in the air, quickly flying higher and higher, until it reached a height and angle where the entire formation diagram could be seen clearly, and then Jiang Yan controlled it to stop.
Jiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not a magic broom that is refined, so it will be unstable like this.
Fortunately, he has always been good at manipulating magic, otherwise he wouldn't have the confidence to control a shabby broom.
Jiang Yan controlled the broom to stop steadily, released his hand, took out the recording beads and arranged them so as to record all the changes, and then took out the portable magic book and charcoal pencil.
He watched and took notes, concentrating completely and immersing himself completely in research.
Others looked up.
The guards discussed:
"What is the Immortal Lord doing?"
"Break the formation?"
"It looks to me like he's doing research again."
"Young Master, are you okay staying in that man-eating formation?"
"No. Look at the way the young master looked at the Immortal Lord. Does that look like something is wrong? He even stepped on the bloody hand several times."
"That blood swamp is so disgusting. If I step into it, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand it for even a second. I'll immediately step on that bloody hand and explode out of the formation."
"Only the young master can tolerate this."
"…He is really tolerant, in all aspects."
“I really don’t want to understand it immediately.”
"Shut up! How can you say that? Commander Ji is glaring at us!!"
Under Ji Ziheng's sharp gaze, the Sirius Guards were all silent and frightened.
Ling Hanzhang twitched his lips, poked Song Hua's arm, and asked, "Why didn't I realize that the Tianlang Guards were so lively before?"
He looked lifeless from head to toe.
Song Hua watched intently, analyzing the formation diagram in his mind.
He was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Jiang Xianjun who was writing furiously.
"...Probably because there was no Immortal Lord accompanying the young master before." Song Hua laughed softly.
Both Gu Jingyun and the Tianlang Guards changed because of Jiang Yan.
The warm spring breeze will bring new life to the snow-covered soil.
Jiang Yan is the spring breeze, the warm sunshine, the dawn that leads them to break through the darkness, and the light of hope for everyone.
