In front of the ancient pagoda, everyone looked at the dark sky above their heads, and a sense of foreboding arose in their hearts.
Just as Lian Cheng and several elders approached the gate of the ancient pagoda and were about to step in to check, an even stronger demonic energy rushed towards their faces.
"What?!"
Liancheng was caught off guard and was thrown back several steps. He suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly threw out several talismans to block it, "Show!"
The revealing talismans fell in all directions, revealing more than a dozen dried-up evil spirit bodies crowded together.
These were all people who had aged naturally in the ancient pagoda. Due to their poor cultivation, they were immediately thrown to the first level by higher-level demons after death and transformed into a wisp of soul.
But logically speaking, these souls cannot even condense into a physical form, let alone have the ability to break through the barrier of the ancient tower.
"It's the silkworm beast."
Nan Xu saw this and made a quick decision: "They raised that silkworm beast as a vanguard to pave the way for these spirits to break through the barrier."
The resentful aura of the silkworm beast is extremely corrosive, so the seal on the gate must have been damaged.
Lian Cheng sneered upon hearing this, "You're just a few spirits! I'll beat you to pieces!"
After he finished speaking, he rushed forward with his fellow disciples, using all kinds of esoteric magic to attack.
They are all elders of Xuan Sect who have practiced for nearly three hundred years and are proficient in magic. They can usually deal with a few spirits without any problem, and can even fight against a hundred at a time.
However, this time, after fighting for a long time, it took several people working together to barely kill one.
"How can these things be so strong?!"
Lian Cheng's hands were cramping from drawing talismans, but when he tried to hit the spirits, he always got half the result with twice the effort. He was so frustrated that he even wondered if his skills had regressed.
As he spoke, a spirit crouched down and slipped under his arm.
“Oh no!”
The people behind them are all disciples of the sect.
The powerful strength of these spiritual bodies is simply not something that ordinary disciples can deal with.
But everyone here was tied up and couldn't get away. Even Nan Xu and Luo Heshan had joined the melee to help, and they had no time to care about the situation behind them.
In a hurry, he turned around and shouted to his disciples: "Hurry..."
Before he could even utter the word "run", his voice suddenly got stuck in his throat.
Because he saw that the extremely fast spirit had already rushed in front of everyone, raised its slender black nails with a strong murderous aura and was about to attack the disciples.
However, before he could grab the person, he was kicked out by a foot that came out from the slope.
The kick was so powerful that it not only kicked the spirit back, but also knocked away another spirit in front of Liancheng. The two spirits smashed into the gate of the ancient tower like a stack of tiles and were instantly smashed into pieces.
Liancheng swallowed his saliva: "..."
Damn, is this still a human being?
You have to know that the actual weight of the spirit body after it condenses is several hundred pounds. Even these ancient warriors find it difficult to deal with it, but this kick actually hit two of them at once, and directly kicked them to death.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene, and at this moment a cold and light voice came from behind them.
"Those are no longer ordinary spirits. They are half-demonoids that possess intelligence and have formed a common body with the evil demons. Just look at the footprints on the ground and you'll know they're not without physical form."
After hearing this, everyone looked down and discovered that there were indeed quite a few messy mummified footprints in the muddy ground.
This would definitely not happen to a virtual spirit, so those things that just ran out were actually using invisibility magic!
If the silkworm beasts had been so powerful and unstoppable, no one would have noticed these spirits escaping during the chaos. Once they had fled and roamed the ancient martial arts world, the consequences would have been disastrous...
Thinking of this, the elders all broke out in cold sweat and were glad that someone came to their aid.
Wait, that person...
Everyone paused in thought, and when they looked back again, they saw a slender figure slowly walking out from the middle of a group of disciples. The girl was tall and had a cold temperament. Even though she was wearing a straw raincoat, her outstanding and delicate appearance could not be concealed.
At this moment, she had just retracted her feet and brushed off the water stains on the hem of her green robe.
Even after fighting for so long, her clothes were still as clean as before, which was enough to show that she did these things effortlessly.
"What are you looking at?" The girl raised her eyes slightly and glanced over. Her eyes were clear and she reminded lightly, "They are coming."
Upon hearing this, Nan Xu and others suddenly turned around and saw the spirit attacking again, so they hurriedly took action to destroy it.
With the girl's guidance, they no longer used methods to deal with ordinary spirits, but instead used internal energy to dispel evil spirits, achieving twice the result with half the effort.
Soon they worked together to disperse all the spirits, and the moment they closed the door again, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's finally over. I was so scared that my legs went weak just now."
Some of the less experienced disciples grabbed hold of a tree trunk to avoid collapsing on the ground. They looked up at the girl in front of them and couldn't help but sigh, "Junior sister, you are amazing. You are not afraid of anything like this."
Hearing this, everyone: "..."
She was the one who killed all the silkworms. What nonsense are you talking about here?
The elders were also exhausted, but Nan Xu and the others had no time to rest. They all stood in the rain with serious expressions, staring at the dark gate.
"Check the disciples immediately and have all the major sects send people here this afternoon." Nan Xu directly issued a series of instructions, including asking all the highly skilled disciples from several branches of Xuanzong to surround the ancient pagoda, block the roads going up and down the mountain, and have people build awnings to prepare for drying clothes.
