Chapter 126: Immortal Body, Cruel Changming Formation
Seeing that Lu Chen hadn't answered, Ji Ling'er's originally bright eyes suddenly dimmed.
The pitiful look immediately grasped Lu Chen, who had little emotional experience.
Guilt, why do I feel so guilty for no apparent reason? Although Lu Chen thought so in his heart, he still said tentatively: "Well, what did I say before?"
Hearing this, Ji Ling'er immediately lowered her head.
Her eyes, which had originally been somewhat dim, suddenly became cunning.
Then she pretended to be depressed and whispered, "You said that as long as Ling'er guards the Great Flame Dragon Vein well, then when you come again... you will agree to form a Taoist couple with Ling'er as you immortals call it."
"ah?!"
Lu Chen, who is very perceptive in other aspects, is inexplicably slow when it comes to love.
But you can't blame him for this.
After all, even though Lu Chen has lived two lives, he has always been good at this.
A typical giant in theory and a dwarf in reality.
When talking about theories about love, he can speak eloquently and give one reason after another.
But when a similar situation really happens in reality.
His eyes went dark and he didn't know what to say.
Of course, the main reason why he was at a loss right now was that he had no idea whether what Ji Ling'er said was true or false.
What if he really made some promise to Ji Ling'er?
Sweating profusely, Lu Chen was really sweating profusely at this moment.
Perhaps because she didn't want Lu Chen to think too much, Ji Ling'er immediately said, "Brother Qinglian, so what are you going to do this time..."
Before Ji Ling'er could finish her words, Lan Yan suddenly pushed open the palace door.
Just as his evil plan was about to succeed, he was suddenly interrupted by Lan Yan.
Ji Ling'er is angry!
She looked at Lan Yan, and her eyes were more than just cold.
Instead, it was filled with murderous intent.
Because at this moment, she really wanted to kill Lan Yan.
"Lan Yan, did the emperor say that no one is allowed to come in without my order?"
Facing Ji Ling'er's terrifying pressure, Lan Yan said solemnly: "But Your Majesty...the evil ones are here again."
Hearing this, Ji Linger's already gloomy face became even gloomier.
It was as if the word "evil" had touched her reverse scale.
She looked in the direction outside the palace and said in a cold tone: "If they dare to come, then I will make sure they never come back."
"yes."
Hearing Ji Linger's words, Lan Yan immediately retreated.
Then Ji Ling'er looked at Lu Chen and said apologetically: "Brother Qinglian, please wait a moment, it will be over soon..."
Having said that, no one knew what Ji Ling'er had done.
The originally calm pool of blood under the coffin of immortality suddenly began to surge.
Then the blood in the blood pools spread out in all directions along with the four huge chains.
It soon turned into special lamp oil and lit the four huge eternal lamps outside the palace.
At this point, Lu Chen belatedly looked at Ji Linger's panel.
[Name: Ji Linger]
【Cultivation: Mortal】
[Special Talent: Immortal Body]
【describe:???】
Mortal, immortal body?
Looking at Ji Linger's panel, Lu Chen found it hard to associate her with the last empress who commanded countless ghost soldiers and generals.
After all, he would never have thought that the person lying in the coffin of immortality would actually be a mortal.
Just when Lu Chen wanted to get some other information.
The originally peaceful imperial mausoleum suddenly experienced a huge earthquake.
Without any hesitation, Lu Chen spread out his spiritual sense.
Soon, he clearly saw what happened outside the Great Yan Emperor's Mausoleum.
Suddenly, a large amount of black fog appeared around the Great Yan Emperor's Mausoleum.
These black fogs are very strange. Not only can they devour Lu Chen's spiritual power, but they can also pollute the surrounding environment.
But as the four huge eternal lamps under the imperial mausoleum lit up.
The black fog finally stopped within the range of the long-lasting light, forming a clear boundary line.
It seemed as if the light emitted by this eternal lamp was the natural enemy of the black fog.
Under the eternal lamp are the ghost soldiers and generals of the Great Yan Imperial City.
Outside the eternal lamp, there are countless strange creatures surging in the black fog.
Not long after, Lu Chen saw a large number of evil immortals walking out of the black fog.
I saw that they were guys who looked not much different from normal monks.
If he ignored the black aura emanating from them, Lu Chen would even think that they were just ordinary cultivators in the land of Shenzhou.
In addition to the evil spirits similar to monks, there were also a large number of half-undead monsters walking out of the black fog.
These guys had haggard faces and ragged clothes.
It looked like a rotten corpse crawling out of a grave.

The Black Lotus Cult...
Lu Chen didn't expect that he would see the Black Lotus Sect, which had only appeared in reality, in the copy.
What he didn't expect was that there were actually four leaders of the Black Lotus Sect who invaded the Great Yan Emperor's Mausoleum.
And each of them is a real Jindan stage villain.
Seeing this, Lu Chen didn't know how Ji Ling'er was going to resist.
Because Ji Ling'er has five ghost generals in the Ghost Pill Stage under her command.
But among them, only Lan Yan reached the fifth level of the Ghost Pill Stage.
The remaining four ghost generals are only at the first level of the Ghost Pill Stage.
This strength is undoubtedly not enough to face the four Black Lotus Sect leaders who are at the first to third Jindan stage.
The actual situation was similar to what Lu Chen thought, when Lan Yan and others fought with these Black Lotus sect evildoers.
The battle was almost overwhelming.
The four ghost generals were not only severely suppressed by the leader of the Black Lotus Sect.
Even Lan Yan had no way to deal with the Black Lotus Sect guardian on the opposite side.
Danger ensued in an instant.
But soon, the situation between the two sides changed.
It seemed that Lan Yan and other great flame ghost generals were not afraid of death. Every attack they made resulted in injury in return.
Moreover, it seemed that they were aiming to exchange their lives with the evil Black Lotus Sect from the very beginning.
Every move is a life-threatening attack.
Under this crazy fighting style, the evildoers of the Black Lotus Sect became a little timid.
For a moment, the battle between the two sides fell into a strange stalemate.
And apart from this high-level battle.
The battle between the ordinary Great Flame Ghost Soldiers and the Black Lotus Zombies on the ground was equally brutal.
Both sides seemed to have no idea what death was, and both adopted the most crazy fighting methods.
Every minute and every second, a large number of Black Lotus Zombies and Great Flame Ghost Soldiers will die.
However, after the death of these great flame ghost soldiers, their bodies will turn into a wisp of black smoke and fly into the eternal lamp at the back.
After a while, they will be resurrected under the eternal lamp and join the battle again.
If the Black Lotus Zombie dies, then it is truly dead.
But if it was just ordinary Great Flame Ghost Soldiers that were like this, Ji Ling'er would still not be able to stop the Black Lotus Cult's offensive.
But when this feature of infinite resurrection also appears on the great flame ghost generals such as Lan Yan, the situation becomes completely different.
The combat power of a ghost general in the Ghost Pill Stage who can be resurrected infinitely is definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
It was seen that although Lan Yan and the others were slightly inferior to the Black Lotus Sect's evildoers in terms of cultivation.
But they relied on the infinite resurrection ability of the eternal lamp behind them and managed to block the Black Lotus army.
Perhaps because they knew they couldn't take over the Great Yan Emperor's Mausoleum for the time being, the black fog that suddenly appeared around the mausoleum eventually faded away slowly.
When everything was over, Lu Chen turned to look at Ji Ling'er in the coffin.
I saw that the other party's breath became extremely weak at this time.
His originally rosy face turned even paler.
Thinking about the chains between the four huge eternal lamps and the coffin of immortality, Lu Chen suddenly guessed the reason why Lan Yan and others could be resurrected infinitely.
If he guessed correctly, the reason why Lan Yan and others could be resurrected infinitely was because of the four huge eternal lamps.
It relies on Ji Linger's immortal body.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen's eyes turned complicated when he looked at Ji Ling'er.
Because if everything was as he thought, then the price Ji Ling'er had to pay... was a bit too high.
Perhaps she noticed Lu Chen's concerned look. Ji Ling'er held on to her weak body and said in a relaxed manner, "It's okay, Brother Qinglian. I've gotten used to it. I'll be fine after a good sleep..."
Hearing the other party's obviously weaker tone, Lu Chen said softly: "The reason why they can be resurrected all the time should be because of you, right?"
Ji Ling'er, who was half leaning on the Immortal Coffin, nodded and said weakly: "Yes, I am the core of this Changming formation."
"I am an immortal body. My life span can be restored by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Except for not being able to practice cultivation, I am almost immortal."
"With the longevity coffin that you made for me, Brother Qinglian, Ling'er can easily absorb the spiritual power that has been contaminated by evil and restore his life span. That's why we have been able to hold on for such a long time."
"Is this the coffin of immortality made by me?"
Lu Chen looked at the Immortality Coffin beside Ji Ling'er with some surprise. He didn't expect that he could have this ability.
Ji Ling'er seemed to have just remembered that Lu Chen had no memories of the past. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Brother Qinglian, you told me before that when we meet again, I must not tell you too much about the past."
"But if you really want to know, Ling'er can also..."
Before Ji Ling'er could finish her words, Lu Chen interrupted her and said, "It's okay. Since I said so at the beginning, there must be a reason for saying so. You don't have to force it."
Ji Ling'er nodded and said nothing more.
The two were silent for a moment, and Lu Chen said, "Then...what do you need me to do?"
Hearing this, Ji Ling'er seemed a little hesitant, unsure whether to speak.
But Lan Yan, who had been resurrected outside the door, walked in again.
"Master Qinglian, we need you to destroy the statue of the Black Lotus Buddha on the ground."
"Lan Yan!"
Ji Ling'er scolded Lan Yan angrily, seeming very dissatisfied with her self-assertion.
But before Ji Ling'er could say anything more, she suddenly started coughing.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen subconsciously supported her.
From Lu Chen's direction, he could clearly see the situation deep inside the coffin.
Inside the coffin, Ji Ling'er's body was pierced by four chains.
The blood not only dyed her clothes red, but also continued to spread along the four chains.
Only then did Lu Chen realize how cruel the so-called Changming Formation was.
Thinking of Lan Yan's previous words, Lu Chen couldn't believe that Ji Ling'er could maintain this state for five thousand years.
I also didn't expect that she could endure such pain and talk to me for a long time without any abnormality.
Perhaps because she didn't want Lu Chen to see her miserable state, Ji Ling'er subconsciously covered the chains with her clothes.
Then he smiled and said, "It's okay, I did all this voluntarily, it has nothing to do with others."
Hearing this, Lu Chen didn't say anything more.
But the look he gave Ji Ling'er became more complicated.
He didn't dare to imagine whether he could last as long as Ji Ling'er if he and she switched places.
For her, the immortal body is not only not a good thing, but more like a curse.
What kind of belief has allowed her to persist until now? Thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately looked at Lan Yan and said, "General Lan, please tell me what to do."
Hearing this, Lan Yan was immediately delighted, and then explained the situation carefully.
"Master Qinglian, these Black Lotus Sect bastards rely on the Buddha Mother statue. Even after death, they can be resurrected next to the statue after a period of time."
"But unlike us who can be resurrected immediately by relying on your Majesty's immortal body, Jindan-stage genies can only be resurrected once every five hundred years."
"So at the beginning, because they didn't know about the existence of the Changming Formation, they were killed by us many times in a row."
"But in the past thousand years, they have figured out our situation, so they no longer fight us to the death but instead adopt a war of attrition."
"Although Her Majesty has the Immortal Coffin, her lifespan recovery speed can no longer keep up with the consumption of our several battles."
"If this continues, we are worried that His Majesty will fall into a short-term coma due to insufficient lifespan."
"Once your Majesty's immortal body is gone, the eternal lamp in the imperial mausoleum will undoubtedly become a decoration."
"By then, let alone the evil Black Lotus Sect, we won't even be able to resist the black fog."
"After we discovered this, we thought about taking the initiative to destroy the black lotus statue on the opposite side."
"However, we can only explore slightly in the black fog when we hold the eternal lamp, and once we die on the ground, we can only be resurrected underground, and we cannot get close to the Buddha statue at all."
"So we need someone to help us find the location of the Buddha statue and then find a way to destroy it."
"And the only person in this world who can walk alone in the black fog without relying on anything else is you, Taoist Qinglian."
Hearing this, Lu Chen finally understood why he was here.
I also understand the difficulties faced by Ji Ling'er and others.
Ji Ling'er and others were like trapped beasts underground.
Although the Black Lotus Sect's evildoers cannot defeat them in the short term.
But they were able to erode Ji Ling'er's lifespan bit by bit through a war of attrition.
The rate at which Ji Linger's lifespan is depleted cannot keep up with the rate at which her lifespan is recovered.
Sooner or later, the day will come when the Changming formation in the imperial mausoleum can no longer be maintained.
At that time, it would be the moment when the Black Lotus Cult would break into the Great Yan Emperor's Mausoleum.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen gently put Ji Ling'er down and let her lean on the Immortality Coffin.
He stood up.
But before he could take any action, he saw Ji Ling'er pulling at the corner of his clothes.
It seemed as if she didn't want him to go to the ground.
After all, Ji Linger didn’t know that Lu Chen was in the copy at the moment, nor did she know that he could be resurrected infinitely.
Therefore, he didn't want Lu Chen to take risks.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen patted the back of her hand and said calmly: "Don't worry, it's okay."
Looking at Lu Chen's calm appearance.
Ji Ling'er was in a trance, and seemed to see what Lu Chen had said to her when she was in despair.
"Master, what are you going to do on this trip? Will it be dangerous?"
"Don't worry, I'm just going to change the emperor of Da Yan..."
And everything was exactly as Lu Chen said.
After that night, the world of Dayan...changed completely.
And her life began to be filled with light from that day on.
Thinking of this, Ji Ling'er immediately let go of her hand and said seriously: "... Ling'er will stay here and wait for the Taoist priest to come back."
"good."
Lu Chen nodded and walked straight out of the palace...
PS: The 26th day of the daily 10,000 was completed. I was too tired from running field work today, so I wrote the code a little late. Sorry.
