The Wu family is not independent of the Immortal Court. The Great Immortal Zhuxie also holds a post in the Immortal Court. Correspondingly, the Immortal Court has also sent people to guard Zhuxie Island. In the past, the Immortal Court guarding was a joke, and no one would take it seriously, but now, the Immortal Court guarding may be a breakthrough.
The impact range of the "disaster energy" exceeded expectations. Given the size of the Immortal Court, they must have noticed something was wrong long ago. If the Immortal Court Guard had a plan to "respond to the disaster", it might be a way to survive.
"in front of."
The head of the Wu family immediately understood what Chen Luo meant, and immediately quickened his pace and flew towards the house guarded by the Immortal Court.
In just a few moments, the two arrived at a house.
This courtyard is located at the outermost part of the market town and is much smaller than the Wu family's house. When the two came over, the gate at the entrance was closed. The guarding stone lions on both sides looked at them coldly, with a faint spiritual sense surrounding them. As long as someone forced their way through the gate, the two stone lions would be resurrected to suppress the invading enemy.
"This is the house guarded by Hao Ming."
The head of the Wu family walked forward quickly, took out a token from his arms, and threw it towards the door.
The token melted instantly, and the white light permeated the entire door like a water curtain. The stone lions on both sides closed their eyes at the same time, and the lion claws pressing on the stone ball moved slightly.
After a low sound of a door opening, the front door of the house opened.
"These restrictions were set up by our Wu family for him."
Patriarch Wu explained.
Chen Luo did not speak. As the local boss of Zhuxie Island, the Wu family had absolute control over Zhuxie Island. Even if the envoys from the Immortal Court came, they would need to submit a visiting card to the Wu family first and obtain the approval of Zhuxie Immortal before they could settle down on Zhuxie Island.
"Hao Zhenshou, Wu Feng is here to visit."
The two did not enter the house. The death-killing Gu could only buy them a cup of tea, which would not delay them too long.
Bang!
There was a sound coming from the inner courtyard, and then several auras broke through the air from the inner courtyard, and arrived in front of the two of them in the blink of an eye.
There were three people in total, two men and one woman.
Chen Luo had seen two of them before. They were the two alchemists who had treated Wu Ling with him before, Li Hongxiu and Yang Ding. The remaining person was wearing black armor, and his square face was full of anxiety. When he saw the head of the Wu family, his face was full of surprise. He ignored Li Hongxiu and Yang Ding next to him, and quickly stepped forward to grab the head of the Wu family and asked.
"But the Great Immortal Zhuxie has returned?"
This person is none other than the guardian of the Immortal Court, Hao Ming.
"Our ancestor hasn't come back yet. Has the guard here got any news from the Immortal Court?" Patriarch Wu glanced at Yang Ding and Li Hongxiu and breathed a sigh of relief.
Both of these alchemists are quite powerful. Although they are not as good as Chen Luo, they are also the best among alchemists.
In the current situation, one more person means one more helper.
At worst, when you encounter a disaster, you will have two more people to take the blame.
"Ah? It's over! The Immortal Court has no time to answer me right now."
Hearing the answer from the head of the Wu family, Hao Ming wailed and a trace of despair flashed in his eyes.
"You two, what happened?"
Seeing Hao Ming's expression, the head of the Wu family was too lazy to waste time on him and directly asked Yang Ding and Li Hongxiu.
The two of them didn't look good either.
They didn't expect to meet the head of the Wu family so soon. When they were at the Wu family before, they had witnessed the horror of the "River of Rebirth" with their own eyes. Now that the head of the Wu family appeared here, it was very likely that he would bring the water of the Black River here. However, in this situation, they had no choice.
If it weren't for the protection of the garrison, both of them might have died outside.
“It’s the Dan Demon Qi.”
Li Hongxiu briefly described the situation outside.
After leaving the Wu family, the two of them wanted to leave Zhuxie Island directly, but they received an alchemy mission on the way. This mission was issued by Hao Ming using the authority of the Immortal Court.
After accepting the task, the two of them went to Hao Ming's mansion to assist him in refining the elixir. The first few days were normal, with contributions from the Immortal Court and income from immortal crystals and spiritual materials. The two were in a good mood, and they wanted to rely on this basic plate to earn more immortal crystals and earn back the travel expenses to the Wu family.
However, just a few days after things stabilized, something unexpected happened.
The furnace for refining the elixir Hao Ming was making exploded.
If it was a normal furnace explosion, it would not be a big deal. Both of them were alchemists, well-informed, and would not take such a small matter seriously. But in the next few days, the black gas caused by the furnace explosion seemed to have mutated, swallowing up all the servants in the mansion. Wherever the black gas passed, no one or animal was left alive.
As long as the physical body is contaminated by evil spirit, it will disappear immediately.
If the three of them had not reacted quickly and hid in the alchemy furnace in advance, they would probably have disappeared without a trace like the others.
"Dan Demon Qi?"
After listening to the descriptions of several people, the head of the Wu family subconsciously looked at Chen Luo.
He is not an alchemist and does not understand the ins and outs of it.
“It’s the calamity energy.”
Chen Luo shook his head. He had sensed something was wrong when he entered the house. Hao Ming's courtyard was like the Wu family's, filled with traces of a large amount of calamity energy. These three people had never seen 'calamity energy' before, and mistook this power beyond their cognition as Danmo Qi.
"What is robbery energy?"
Hearing Chen Luo's words, Li Hongxiu and Yang Ding looked over at the same time. When they were at the Wu family before, they both saw Chen Luo's methods and knew that this Taoist friend Chen was mysterious and knew many secrets of the immortal world.
"Why don't you leave? The demonic energy in the elixir has long since disappeared."
Chen Luo did not answer their questions.
"Do you think we don't want to leave? We can't get out!" Hao Ming beside him wailed.
During this period of time, the three of them had no idea how many times they had escaped, but every time they passed through the market gate, they would end up back in the market.
It's like teleportation.
Someone connected the exit and the middle of the market gate together, forming a "circle" that cannot be escaped.
"Can't get out?"
The face of the head of the Wu family suddenly changed.
His death-substitute Gu can only last for a cup of tea. If he can't find a way out afterwards, the calamity energy that transformed into 'Ah Fu' will definitely come back again, and then none of them will survive.
"Go and have a look."
Chen Luo turned quickly and walked towards the door.
This time everyone followed.
Continuing to hide in the house is definitely not a long-term solution. The "evil pill energy" is getting stronger and stronger. Last night, it corroded a big hole in the furnace where Hao Ming was guarding the alchemy.
Before Chen Luo and Patriarch Wu came over, the three of them were discussing countermeasures inside.
This is also the main reason why the three of them flew over as soon as possible after hearing the message from the head of the Wu family.
The group moved very quickly, and in the blink of an eye they arrived at the entrance of the market.
Looking from the inside out, everything seems normal at the export.
The surging sea of clouds stretches as far as the eye can see, and a cool breeze blows in from outside.
'phantom.'
Qiu Xianren's mind emerged. He had fled to the lower world to avoid disaster. When he left the fairyland, he had encountered a similar scene. However, what Qiu Xianren encountered was not "disaster energy", but another form of great disaster.
Different external manifestations reveal different powers. Only a strong person at the level of Immortal Emperor can identify the root cause behind these "calamity qi", which is the great calamity.
Chen Luo patted the cave gourd, took out a handful of talisman paper figurines from it, and summoned out Zhao Qi's puppet.
"Go and have a look."
Yang Ding and Li Hongxiu were shocked and immediately recognized the puppet that Chen Luo called out.
"Isn't this Master Zhao Dan who helped us treat Master Wu before? How did he become a puppet?"
Zhao Qi ignored the two of them and walked forward cautiously.
He stretched out his right hand, and the power of the immortal spirit gently spun in his hand. The talisman paper figurines instantly scattered, like flowers scattered by a fairy, and flew towards the direction of the market gate.
Buzz!
The talisman paper figure flew out of the door and disappeared instantly.
There was still a sea of clouds outside, but all the talisman paper figures had lost contact. Zhao Qi sensed it, suddenly raised his foot, and stepped over.
Translucent ripples passed through his body, and the door that was originally visible at a glance now seemed to have turned into a different dimension. The area touched by his right foot was rippled in circles like tree rings. (End of this chapter)
