The next moment, Gu Qingxi's calm voice sounded: "There is a way. We must open the barrier and face the evil spirit directly."
"It's very dangerous." Mu's father frowned and said.
"The formation set up by Qi Fengming can't last too long. Although I can set up another formation to trap it, it's only a temporary solution. It can still practice inside, and when it becomes stronger, it can still break the barrier and get out." Gu Qingxi shook his head and said.
"Then, can't we keep reinforcing the barrier and trap it in this place forever?" An old man behind Mu's father couldn't help but ask.
Gu Qingxi glanced at the old man and said slowly: "The barrier is reinforced every two months, and the cost each time is close to hundreds of millions of spirit stones. And as it practices and becomes stronger inside, it will only become easier for it to break the barrier. No one can guarantee that each reinforced barrier can last for two months."
When the old man heard Gu Qingxi report the time and the number of spirit stones, his face froze, and then he fell silent.
At this time, Mu Ling was shocked and subconsciously turned to look at Qi Fengming, whispering: "Did you spend so much money on the formation last time? Why didn't you tell me? We in Wujiang will compensate you for this money."
Qi Fengming smiled slightly and whispered: "Helping a friend, don't worry so much."
Mu Ling insisted: "That won't work, I must compensate you. If you help me alone, I will definitely not be polite to you. But last time you helped our entire Wujiang. It's different."
Qi Fengming nodded: "Okay, you have the final say."
Although the two people's voices were very low, Gu Qingxi still heard it.
She glanced at Qi Fengming and confirmed that this guy had indeed changed a lot.
Moreover, he seemed to have made his first friend, Mu Ling.
Mu Ling seemed to be sincere to Qi Fengming.
Gu Qingxi couldn't help but sigh, maybe people will change. It's just that everyone's changes are different.
-------------------------
In order to eliminate the evil spirit, Gu Qingxi must enter the mountains, and Baili Changfeng will naturally follow the little sister.
In Wujiang, Mu Ling, as the young master, must follow in. Qi Fengming also insisted on going.
Mu's father sent two powerful elders to go in together.
However, unexpectedly, there were many people who wanted to go in together. Those who clamored to go in together were obviously not cultivators from Wujiang.
"Who are they?" Gu Qingxi actually saw the group of people when she arrived in this valley, and she was a little curious about what these people were doing here.
As a result, when she heard that these people were going to follow into the mountains, Gu Qingxi was a little surprised.
Don't these people know how terrible the evil spirits are?
Mu's father's eyes turned cold, and he said lightly: "These are all cultivators who came to Wujiang for training. They heard that evil spirits appeared here, so they have been guarding here.
In name, they want to help Wujiang eradicate evil spirits and eliminate harm in the name of fame.
In fact, they are just a group of greedy and arrogant people who think they can subdue evil spirits or eliminate evil spirits to get evil spirit crystals."
Evil spirit crystals are a kind of crystal stone containing powerful energy produced after the evil spirits are eliminated.
This kind of crystal stone is completely different from the evil spirit. Although it is produced by the elimination of evil spirits, the power contained in it is not evil at all.
On the contrary, the power contained in the evil spirit crystal gathers the power of heaven and earth, and contains the essence of the sun and the moon. It is the purest power.
And the role of the evil spirit crystal is even more extensive.
The cultivator can directly absorb it to enhance his cultivation, and may even comprehend the meaning of Tao and directly advance.
The evil spirit crystal can also be used to refine tools, make pills, and even to set up formations.
The evil spirit crystal is a priceless existence that is unavailable and ranks among the top three treasures of heaven and earth.
Therefore, it seems not surprising that these cultivators came here after hearing the news.
However, many cultivators only know the preciousness of the evil spirit crystal, but do not know the horror of the evil spirit.
An elder behind Mu Ling walked up to the group of cultivators and said, "Have you really made up your mind? The evil spirit is not so easy to deal with. This trip is too dangerous. We don't want to see you get into trouble in our Wu Territory."
In fact, Mu Ling had persuaded these cultivators before, but it was obvious that none of these cultivators appreciated it, and no one wanted to give up.
And now this elder wants to persuade them again.
At that time, this evil spirit appeared in a village in Wujiang. Perhaps because this evil spirit had just been born, it could not control its attack range, and as a result, the entire village fell.
Mortals were eroded by the evil spirit, some turned into mummies, some turned into dry bones, and all the crops withered, which could be said to be a disaster.
A monk passed by and discovered this evil spirit.
The evil spirit was also attracted by the monk's body full of spiritual power, and instinctively wanted to devour him, so he chased the monk all the way.
This monk was a monk from Changling Palace. After one arm was sucked dry by the evil spirit, he contacted Mu Ling with a sound transmission jade slip while escaping.
Mu Ling and Qi Fengming arrived, led the evil spirit away, and rescued the monk.
Finally, Mu Ling and Qi Fengming led the evil spirit into the mountains, and set up a formation when escaping, and then trapped the evil spirit.
The news of the evil spirit's birth soon spread, attracting many monks.
Changling Palace sent people to garrison around the mountains and persuaded these monks, but no one left, and more and more monks came here.
After the elder persuaded, a cultivator said, "Thank you for your kindness, elder, but we have made up our minds. The road of cultivation is full of opportunities and dangers. The treasures of heaven and earth are right in front of us, so we naturally have to fight for them."
The cultivator's words were quite polite.
Other cultivators had already sneered and mocked, "This evil spirit was born and raised by nature, and it belongs to the treasures between heaven and earth. It is not the property of your Wujiang. You really think it is your own thing, and you are afraid that we will go in and rob it?"
"That's right, this treasure of heaven and earth belongs to those who are capable. You are making alarmist remarks and acting hypocritically, aren't you afraid that we will go in and rob you of the evil spirit crystal?"
"You people in Wujiang are really ridiculous. You don't have the ability, and you don't let others take action."
"After we get rid of the evil spirit, you don't need to thank Wujiang. This is a huge bargain for you Wujiang."
…………
For a time, many cultivators talked about and mocked Wujiang.
The elder's face flushed with anger, and his whole body was shaking. These people didn't know good people, and they also turned black and white and talked nonsense!
Mu Ling stepped forward, stretched out his hand and gently pressed on the elder's shoulder to comfort him. He looked up at the monks and said lightly: "If you have seen the village destroyed by the evil spirits, and the monks whose arms were corroded by the evil spirits, and you still insist on going, then I have nothing to say. I just hope that you will be responsible for your own actions and don't blame us Wujiang if something goes wrong. Of course, if you get such a great opportunity, we Wujiang will only congratulate you."
Mu Ling's words made the group of monks who were still shouting just now quiet for a moment.
But it was only a moment. Many monks sneered and said: "Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are in the hands of God. Don't bother the young master of Changling Palace to worry about it."
A small number of monks also fell silent. They just wanted this opportunity, not really fools. It can be seen that Changling Palace seems to be really considering them.
But they did not give up entering the mountains. What he thought in his heart was that at worst he could just walk behind and run away if things got bad.
Mu Qingyu looked at Gu Qingxi and Baili Changfeng and earnestly admonished them: "Qingxi, Changfeng, don't force yourself. If you encounter danger, your own safety is the most important. As for those cultivators who insist on going in, ignore them."
Gu Qingxi and Baili Changfeng nodded and solemnly agreed.
Mu Qingyu looked at the cultivators who insisted on going in and sighed.
Qi Fengming's face was cold, and he said lightly: "It's hard to persuade the damned ghost with good words. Senior Mu, you have done enough."
"You two should be careful too." Mu Qingyu admonished Qi Fengming.
At this point, Gu Qingxi, Baili Changfeng, Qi Fengming, Mu Ling, and the two elders of Changling Palace, a group of six people, prepared to enter the mountains.
Qi Fengming stood at the entrance of the mountains, ready to open a place to enter.
Those cultivators all crowded over, fearing that Qi Fengming would open the barrier and wait for their own people to enter, and then close the barrier to prevent them from entering.
Qi Fengming's eyes flashed with disdain and ridicule. He cast a spell with his hands and stepped aside. After all the monks rushed in, he said to Gu Qingxi, "Gu Daoyou, let's go in."
Gu Qingxi nodded. After entering the barrier, Gu Qingxi frowned as he looked at the monks rushing forward.
The formation set up by Qi Fengming can trap evil spirits, but it can also trap all creatures in the mountains, including these monks.
These monks are now happily hunting the evil spirits trapped in the barrier and unable to get out, thinking that they are a sure thing.
However, have they ever thought that if the evil spirits can't get out, they can't get out either.
So, in the end, who is the hunter and who is the prey?
