Chapter 180 Not Simple
Pang Su and Huang Dapeng in the air were both pale as dirt. They now understood that Wang Chuan and the other two had been well prepared, which was why they were able to easily break through the magic circle and escape.
They were the inner sect elders, but they had no idea about this. It was obvious that they were abandoned by the sect.
Pang Su and Huang Dapeng had no time to feel angry or frustrated because a group of blood-robed monks rushed towards them.
This group of blood-robed monks all have powerful spiritual awareness, and it is obvious that they are all at the foundation-building stage.
Pang Su and Huang Dapeng looked at each other, then turned around and flew towards Pegasus at the same time.
There were too many blood-robed foundation-building monks, as many as seventeen of them. Being besieged by such a large group of foundation-building monks, even a Jindan Zhenren would feel uncomfortable.
Pang Su and Huang Dapeng were both experienced. As soon as they saw the number of the enemy troops, they knew they would definitely not be able to win.
There are still many sect cultivators in Feimaji, and this group of people will definitely not be able to stop a group of blood-clothed foundation-building cultivators.
When there are too many people, there will be chaos. When there is chaos, there will be opportunities to escape.
Moreover, there are Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang on the other side. These two people can also involve some foundation-building cultivators.
Gao Xian saw what Pang Su and the others were planning. In fact, if the four of them worked together, they could definitely defeat the other side.
Most of these blood-robed foundation-building monks were in the early stages of their foundation-building process. It might be due to the magic sect's techniques, but the aura of their mana was quite violent.
This proves that although the magic power of this group of Demonic Sect's foundation-building monks is strong, it is not very stable, which means that they lack precise control over the power.
As long as someone can slightly affect the space, Gao Xian is confident that he can kill all of these demon sect's foundation-building monks.
Under such circumstances, Pang Su and Huang Dapeng would never be able to trust him, and there was no basis for cooperation between the two sides.
On the other hand, there might be a Jindan Zhenren inside this magic circle. This was not a stage for him to show off his skills.
Gao Xian chose the opposite direction from Pang Su and Huang Dapeng, and rushed into a pine forest at high speed with Qiniang.
Although the magic circle that blocked the four directions of heaven and earth was strong, it would be fine as long as you didn't touch it. The shadowless robe of the Grandmaster's perfect level was enough to cover up his and Qi Niang's aura.
The spiritual sense sensing range of a Jindan Zhenren is one thousand steps, which is beyond the reach of a foundation-building cultivator.
However, the range of the magic array is dozens of miles in radius, which is spacious enough. As long as you don't run into a Jindan Zhenren head-on, there will be no problem.
Gao Xian did not choose the pine forest randomly. His flower-seeking magic mirror could see the flow of magic power and spiritual energy.
He couldn't see through many changes in the magic power within the huge magic array, but he was sure that there was nothing wrong with the pine forest.
It's already late spring and the weather is getting hotter.
The pine trees began to exude pine resin, and the whole forest was filled with the rich smell of pine resin.
Gao Xian suddenly stopped behind a tall pine tree. He then used his shadowless robe to cover Qi Niang as well.
Zhu Qinnan understood Gao Xian very well and said nothing. She just held her breath and stayed close to him.
Gao Xian took Qiniang to the other edge of the pine forest and stopped at a pine tree about ten feet tall.
This straight pine tree is only half a foot in diameter, and its branches are sparse, so it can't provide any shade. Because of this, no one will pay much attention to it.
Zhu Qinnan was actually relaxed at this moment, she even leaned her head lightly on Gao Xian's shoulder.
If there were no enemies, Gao Xian would quite enjoy this warmth.
Unfortunately, seven people separated from the group of Blood-Clothed Foundation-Building Warriors and chased them into the pine forest.
The seven of them were all wearing the same style of scarlet robes, which looked like the sect's standard robes, except for some minor differences.
The seven people included both men and women, with black tattoos on their faces, necks, hands and other exposed skin, and their eyes were all scarlet red.
The magical aura emanating from them was fierce and violent, completely lacking the stability and calmness of the foundation-building cultivators.
Even an ignorant child can see that this group of people are definitely not good people.
The bald man in the lead had the highest cultivation level, at the late stage of foundation building. The spiritual consciousness he exuded was also the most violent and ferocious.
The most outrageous thing about this bald guy is that his head is covered with black runes. Only half of his face has normal skin color, and he looks extremely ferocious.
The blood-stained bald man showed a bit of confusion in his eyes. The enemy's aura had completely disappeared! The other six foundation-building monks were also bewildered. They repeatedly searched the pine forest with their spiritual senses. The mice and ants hiding in the tree holes and underground could not escape their spiritual senses, but they could not find the man and woman.
Seven foundation-building monks gathered together and communicated through telepathy.
Gao Xian, who was several hundred steps away, was observing these seven foundation-building monks through the Flower-Jiangsu Spirit Mirror.
"They are all weaklings. Only the bald guy is stronger."
Gao Xian silently made an assessment and was very confident that he could destroy these evil cultivators in a short period of time.
But since he was inside the magic circle, there was no need for him to take any risks.
Gao Xian believed that Yun Taihao was nearby, so it would be meaningful to test the waters.
Otherwise, so many people died, and four foundation-building monks were abandoned. Was it such a high price just for a noise? !
Yun Taihao's character is not good, but his intelligence is definitely enough. Gao Xian believes that this leader must have some plan.
The only solution now is to delay time as much as possible and wait for the opportunity.
Dozens of miles away in the sky, Yun Taihao looked at the huge golden light mirror in front of him, his brows slightly frowned and his expression gloomy.
The light mirror reflected a huge blood-red net that covered the sky, as well as the embarrassed postures of the two foundation-building monks, Pang Su and Huang Dapeng.
After the two rushed into Pegasus, they were blocked by three blood-robed foundation-building monks.
Together with the ten Blood-Clothed Foundation-Building Monks who surrounded them from behind, Pang Su and Huang Dapeng were trapped in the middle despite trying their best.
If a group of blood-robed foundation-building monks had not been in a hurry to kill, the two would have died long ago.
Even so, they can't hold out for long.
Yun Taihao didn't care about the life or death of Pang Su and Huang Dapeng. He threw so many people in to see the changes in the magic circle and who was presiding over the magic circle.
There are actually more than 20 Blood-robed Foundation Establishment monks hiding in the small Pegasus! "The Blood Evil Sect has actually sent out all its forces. The Thousand Evils Old Demon must also be hiding in the magic circle. Mu Zhengfeng from the Seven Evils Sect should also be there."
Yun Taihao glanced at the white jade ring in his hand. The Nine-Transformation Yuanyang Ring that he borrowed was a spiritual weapon with a spirit inside, which made it difficult for him to fully control it.
Therefore, when urging it to work, there is always some sluggishness, and it is difficult to fully exert the power of the spiritual weapon.
If only Yun Qiu Shui were here, it would be great. With his master, he could activate the Yuan Yang Mirror, which would be enough to illuminate the center of the formation and find the Jindan Zhenren hiding inside.
Yun Taihao was speechless again. Such a precious treasure was actually given to a foundation-building cultivator. The Qingyun Sect was really rich and powerful, and he couldn't help but envy it.
If he had such resources to support him in his early years of practicing Taoism, he might have been able to form a third-grade golden elixir and have hoped to achieve the status of a Nascent Soul True Lord!
Pang Su on the golden light mirror was in a desperate situation. Before he died, the old man tried his best to detonate the Red Yang Pearl, and a ball of red light burst out fiercely.
The blood-robed foundation-building monks around him all retreated in panic. Even so, one of them was unlucky enough to be pierced by the red beam of light and turned into charcoal on the spot...
Huang Dapeng, who was standing by, was also affected and was blasted dozens of feet away by the red light. Before Huang Dapeng could react, dozens of blood-red lights crisscrossed and fell like giant swords, chopping Huang Dapeng into pieces.
This level of mana agitation caused the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to surge. Even a Jindan Zhenren could hardly perceive the subtle changes, but Yun Taihao could reflect them through the Yuanyang Mirror.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is everywhere, and the foundation of the magic array is to guide the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. As long as you can understand the changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, you can find the changes in the magic array.
Yun Taihao was also proficient in magic arrays. With the help of the Yuan Yang Mirror, he could find the center of the magic array through intense magical power shocks, and then find the Jindan Zhenren hidden in it.
As for the deaths of a few foundation-building cultivators and hundreds of Qi-cultivating cultivators, in his opinion, it was not worth mentioning at all.
The tragic deaths of the two foundation-building monks finally triggered changes in the magic circle, allowing Yun Taihao to find the magic circle's veins.
Yun Taihao roughly guessed where the two Jindan were hiding, but he was not quite sure.
By waiting for Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang to die in battle, we should be able to completely lock down the locations of the two Jindan.
To his surprise, Zhu Qiniang and Gao Xian disappeared. No trace of them could be seen on the Yuanyang Mirror.
"Is there a magic weapon that can conceal our tracks?"
Yun Taihao frowned slightly. He had underestimated this young couple.
At this time, Yun Feiying drove the Xunfeng Wheel and rushed over. She bowed deeply from a distance and said, "Disciple greets Master."
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
Yun Taihao nodded slightly, "Feiying, you're here just in time, come here."
He called Yun Feiying to his side and pointed at the mirror and said, "Pang Su and Huang Dapeng are dead, but Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang are hiding without a trace. You are familiar with these two people, do you have any explanation?"
Yun Feiying looked at the golden mirror with astonishment on her face. She didn't know her teacher had such a treasure. Everything dozens of miles away seemed to be right in front of her.
She couldn't see Pang Su and Huang Dapeng, she could only see bloodstains on the ground.
Yun Feiying felt uncomfortable. Although Pang Su, Huang Dapeng and other old men were secretly suppressing her, they were also loyal to the sect.
She couldn't help but feel sad that she ended up like this.
Yun Feiying was silent for a moment and then said, "Teacher, I am not familiar with Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang, and I don't know what they can do or what magical instruments they have."
She paused and couldn't help but say, "They are both so young. The teacher also said that they have great prospects and asked me to make friends with them..."
Yun Taihao knew what his disciple wanted to say, but he didn't agree with it. He thought his disciple was still too young and immature.
After all, he is my disciple, so I still have to teach him.
He said patiently: "No matter how talented Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang are, they are still outsiders. They have no master-disciple relationship with the sect, and no blood connection."
Yun Feiying said cautiously: "Teacher, I heard that the way to control people is to combine kindness and severity, and to clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments."
A smile suddenly appeared on Yun Taihao's cold and gloomy face. It was really interesting that his disciple was so naive.
After following the teacher for so long, it was the first time that Yun Feiying saw the teacher smile. She immediately knew that she had said the wrong thing.
She was very confused. What was wrong with this? "There's nothing wrong with this. It just depends on the specific situation. If the sect is stable, we should do things according to reason and humanity. Now that the sect is about to perish, if you still think about reason and humanity, it means you hate yourself for not dying fast enough."
Yun Taihao said: "Let me ask you, at this critical moment for the sect, will Gao Xian and his men sacrifice themselves for the sect, or will they flee far away?"
Yun Feiying hesitated. In her opinion, Gao Xian and the others were probably unwilling to risk their lives for the sect.
"You don't quite understand!"
Yun Taihao said: "The Gaoxians stay in the sect for the sake of profit. If there is profit, they stay, if there is no profit, they leave. The sect is at the critical moment of life and death, and since these people are not trustworthy, we should naturally make the best use of them."
He turned around and said in a deep voice with a cold face: "Feiying, this battle is related to the survival of the sect, the death of a few people is nothing.
"There is no room for hesitation or softness at this time! Even if it can increase the chance of victory a little bit, their death will be worth it."
Yun Taihao took out a golden talisman and said this. The talisman looked like it was made of pure gold, and there were countless runes densely packed on it.
"This Qiankun Shifting Talisman is a third-grade upper-grade one, worth 500,000 spirit stones."
Yun Taihao said: "I activated the Qiankun Shifting Talisman just to invite Master Yun Qingxuan to come over.
"I offered an ancient secret treasure and 50 million spirit stones, and Master Yun Qingxuan reluctantly agreed to help me because we are from the same clan."
Yun Taihao looked at Yun Feiying coldly, "If Qiansha and Mu Zhengfeng are not in the formation, how can I explain to Master Yun Qingxuan? If we miss this opportunity, how can our sect withstand the combined efforts of the Seven Evils Sect and the Blood Evil Sect?"
These questions made Yun Feiying break out in cold sweat. She lowered her head nervously and stammered, unable to speak a word.
"As the sect leader, I have to be responsible to my ancestors, the thousand-year heritage of the sect, and the tens of thousands of disciples of the sect. In comparison, morality and justice are not worth mentioning."
As Yun Taihao spoke, he activated the Qiankun Shifting Talisman in his hand. The golden talisman decomposed into countless tiny golden rays, forming a complex three-dimensional magic array in the air.
The intricate and complex magic array resonated with a place in the distance. Countless golden rays suddenly condensed, and a woman in green stepped out from the golden rays.
The woman in green has delicate features, skin as smooth as jade, and a slender figure with a graceful posture.
The green dress she wore was as tender as young grass and new bamboo, and as she stood there quietly, she had a kind of gracefulness like the water.
But there was a crystal-clear coldness between her brows, as if she didn't care about anyone or anything in the world.
The woman in green was clearly standing next to him, only a few feet away. But Yun Feiying felt as if there were thousands of mountains and seas between them, and she would never be able to touch this woman.
Yun Taihao bowed his head and saluted with a serious expression: "Master Qingxuan."
Yun Qingxuan bowed in return, her posture was elegant and dignified, impeccable. But somehow, Yun Feiying felt that this woman didn't care about her teacher at all.
It's not about being frivolous, but about not having any emotion, just like a piece of ice that doesn't react to people or things.
"Master Qingxuan, Qiansha and Mu Zhengfeng are inside the formation, but it is difficult to determine their locations for the moment."
Yun Taihao had seen Yun Qingxuan's behavior, and he also felt it was very awkward, but the golden elixir formed by this person was of the third grade.
Even if she was only in the early stage of the Golden Core, her third-grade Golden Core was enough to crush Golden Core masters like Qian Sha and Mu Zhengfeng who had practiced for hundreds of years.
No matter what her personality is, she must be respected as someone with such power.
Yun Taihao suggested: "There are also foundation-building cultivators from my sect inside the formation. One of them has a mark I left on his Yuanyang Fishtail Crown. Once I use my secret technique to activate it, the two will naturally reveal their whereabouts..."
His meaning was very simple. If the whereabouts of the two were exposed, they would fight with the Blood-robed Monk. It was just right that Yun Qingxuan could see the changes in the magic circle and see where the two golden cores were hidden.
Yun Qingxuan's clear and bright eyes turned to the Yuanyang Mirror. She was very familiar with this spiritual weapon.
As she turned her eyes, she saw two foundation-building monks hiding in the magic circle. The magic they used to conceal their breath was quite clever, but unfortunately, it could not be hidden from the Yuanyang Mirror.
Yun Qingxuan didn't care about Yun Taihao, let alone two strangers. Yun Taihao was the sect master, and it was his business how he used his own cultivators.
At this time, Yun Qingxuan found that the male cultivator looked up at him.
The male monk's eyes, as bright as stars, penetrated the Yuanyang Mirror and were imprinted in her eyes.
"He can see me..."
Yun Qingxuan couldn't help but feel a little surprised. She could see that the other party was using the Yuanyang Mirror. The other party could actually sense her presence and lock onto her position.
This spell is not simple...
