Chapter 324: The Eighth Level Formation in Front of Wuji Palace
A sudden rainstorm washed over Jiuque Mountain, dyeing the entire mountain range green.
Being in this rainstorm, Long Qi felt extremely comfortable, as if all his fatigue had been washed away, but he still felt powerless, as if his body was bound by an invisible force.
What's wrong with him?
Everything was fine yesterday, how come it became like this today?
Just when Long Qi was puzzled, a black shadow fell from the sky, with his robe fluttering and the aura of a domineering man rampant.
It’s the Demon Lord!
The black robe with golden threads moved without wind, and the wooden covering on his face could not hide the sharpness in his eyes. He looked down upon the world as if it were nothing but a plaything.
Even though it was raining heavily, the Demon Lord's clothes were still clean and not affected at all. He walked towards the Wuji Palace step by step.
Facing the fierce Demon Lord, Lingxiang couldn't help but feel a little frightened, but she stood in front of the Demon Lord without hesitation, pinching her fingers and ready to attack at any time.
However, when the Demon Lord arrived in front of Lingxiang, he just smiled, raised his hand and gently patted her head, then flashed behind Lingxiang and stepped onto the stone steps on his own.
Lingxiang turned around and was about to shout to stop them, but at this moment, the doors and windows of Wuji Palace suddenly opened, and several figures flew out and spread out in all directions, surrounding the Demon Lord.
It’s the True Man Shangqing and a group of elders!
Shangqing turned his head to look at Zhaoming Zhenren lying on the ground, closed his eyes in great pain, and then looked at the Demon Lord again. Although Shangqing Zhenren's face was as calm as water, he could not hide the anger in his eyes.
"Demon Lord Boyan, you are here after all."
It turns out that the Demon Lord's name is Bo Yan. This was the first time Lingxiang heard of him. But from what Shangqing Zhenren said, it seemed as if he had known that this day would come.
Yes, yes, Lingxiang finally understood why the Yuanqing Sect had a mountain-guarding formation, and why this formation only targeted the demons.
I heard that when Yuan Qing first founded his sect, there was no so-called mountain-guarding formation. There were monsters all over the Jiuque Mountain, but everything was peaceful and harmonious. It was not until the demons invaded more than ten years ago that the mountain-guarding formation was put into place.
I'm afraid that at that time, Senior Brother Shangqing had already predicted that the Demon Lord would attack Yuanqing again, but where did this basis come from?
Could it be that at that time...
Lingxiang immediately thought of the things she had placed in Xianyunju. Apart from that, she really couldn't think of any other reason.
Okay, okay, what a good old man Shangqing is. He actually kept it from me for so long. If it weren’t for Wan Gu Qiong Cang’s enlightenment last time, I would probably still be kept in the dark!
Forget it, now is not the time to worry about these things.
The Demon Lord did not respond, but stood still, as if waiting for something. Sure enough, when Master Qianyuan shouted, "Set up the formation!" several elders immediately began to make hand gestures.
In a moment, the Demon Lord was trapped in a golden magic circle. However, he did not panic at all. He stood in the circle without moving, as if he did not care.
Seeing the elders making hand gestures and twisting their fingers, Lingxiang felt that it was very familiar. After thinking carefully, she realized that it was a secret technique in the secret room where His Highness Wuji kept his scrolls - the Eight Extremes Demon Subduing Formation.
The Eight Extremes Demon Subduing Formation was based on the eight directions of the Xiantian Bagua. Each direction used the corresponding five elements to perform a different demon-sealing technique, trapping those within the formation within a sealing device. However...
Since it is the Eight Extremes, there must be eight people to perform the spell, but right now only the elders are performing the spell, and the headmaster Yuan Qing has not moved, which is strange.
"Eight Extremes Demon Subduing Formation, unfortunately, you can't gather eight people." The Demon Lord said coldly.
Hearing this, Lingxiang's eyes darkened.
Yes, her fifth senior brother has already...
At this moment, Shangqing Zhenren took out a piece of yellow paper from his arms, drew a stroke with his finger, then drew a talisman on the paper, and then threw it out.
As the yellow talisman landed at the Kan position, a phantom immediately appeared and instantly transformed into the appearance of Shangqing Zhenren.
It’s the blood talisman of the clone!
As the incarnation of Shangqing Zhenren stood still, he and the original Shangqing also started to make hand seals, and now the Baji Formation was complete.
The Demon Lord Boyan's eyes changed. He seemed to have not expected Shangqing to use the blood talisman.
Although Shangqing Zhenren has a high level of cultivation, generally speaking, the more such a person is, the less likely he is to damage his own cultivation. After all, it is extremely difficult to practice for many years.
The eight directions were singing continuously, and the Eight Extremes Demon Subduing Formation was almost completed. The Demon Lord seemed to feel the pressure. He raised his head with all his strength, and the blue veins on his neck were fully exposed.
Zhenren Qianyuan threw out a dark green wooden box with red talismans written on it.
However, at this moment, the Demon Lord turned around, and a ray of light shot out from his fingers, instantly piercing through the chest of the incarnation of Shangqing Zhenren.
It was Qinghui's finger! What's going on?
Lingxiang was greatly surprised. How could a demon king of the demon race know Yuanqing's magic? Moreover, that was clearly the spiritual power that only humans possess!
Just as Lingxiang was surprised, Shangqing Zhenren spat out a mouthful of blood, and his clone in Kanwei was pierced by Qinghui's finger, turning into a burning yellow talisman and dissipated in the rain with the wind.
“Senior Brother!”
Several elders were shocked, but Shangqing Zhenren shouted, "Stay in your positions and don't move!"
With the Kan formation broken, Demon Lord Boyan's pressure seemed to be much less. He glanced at the elders in each formation and laughed arrogantly.
Now Shangqing was severely injured, the power of the formation was already weakened by half, and one of the eight poles was missing, so he could do nothing.
However, the Demon Lord was too happy too early.
At this moment, the torrential rain suddenly stopped without any warning or transition, as if someone in the sky suddenly held up a big umbrella.
It's spiritual incense.
The Eight Extremes Demon Subduing Formation is a Xiantian Bagua Formation. The Kan position governs the north, and Ren and Gui are water. If it is the water position...
Lingxiang is proficient in the art of the five elements, especially the water technique. She has also seen the eighth-level demon-suppressing formation in the secret room where the scrolls are stored before. Although her cultivation level is low, now that she has taken the elixir, it seems that it is enough to fill the gap in the Eight Extreme Formation.
The Demon Lord never expected that Lingxiang would use the Eight Extremes Demon Subduing Formation. With Lingxiang's cultivation level, she was not yet able to set foot in the scroll storage room.
Lingxiang didn't know anything about the Eight Extremes Demon Sealing Formation, but according to her calculations, since it was a sealing technique, then the Wave and Tide Art should be able to do it. After all, the uses of the two were essentially the same.
With the replenishment of spiritual incense, the golden light of the eighth-level formation became stronger again. Although it was not as powerful as before, it at least completed all the five elements of the formation.
The Demon Lord was unable to move for a moment. As he chanted the incantations, the talisman array on the dark green wooden box began to glow.
However, even though the Demon Lord was in such a situation, Ghost Face on the side had no intention of stopping him. He just watched everything, as if everything happening at the moment had nothing to do with him.
At this moment, the golden light of the Baji Formation suddenly weakened.
Lingxiang felt severe pain in her abdomen, and she felt that her spiritual power was constantly draining away.
It's the backlash of the elixir! I didn't expect it to come so soon!
As the pain intensified, Lingxiang spat out a mouthful of blood, but she still held her position, chanting the mantra intermittently. However, it didn't take long before she finally collapsed to the ground due to exhaustion.
"Spiritual incense! Spiritual incense!"
Seeing Lingxiang vomiting blood, Long Qi hurried forward, but Lingxiang pinched her fingers and trapped him in magic.
Long Qi was surprised and puzzled: What was Lingxiang doing at this moment!
At this moment, a stream of spiritual energy suddenly burst out from the Demon Lord's body, instantly knocking away the elders at the center of each formation. At this moment, the mask on his face also fell off.
Lingxiang looked at the face of the Demon Lord in front of her, and the vague memory suddenly became clear.
"You... who are you..."
