Chapter 229 Faraday Cage
Ning Mingmei and his men hid in the dark, and their eyelids suddenly twitched.
Lian Chengyue saw Ning Mingmei stretching out his hand to pull his left eyelid, and asked him in a low voice: "Why did Immortal Ning pull his left eyelid?"
Ning Mingmei: "The left eye twitches for good fortune, the right eye twitches for disaster. I am reversing the future - a friend taught me this."
Huang Zhutao cast a look of contempt at Ning Mingmei. After hearing this, Lian Chengyue began to pull his left eyelid to create the future.
But he also asked: "Xianzun, do you have a bad feeling?"
Ning Mingmei: "Shut up. If it comes true, it's yours."
Lian Chengyue kept her mouth shut but smiled secretly in her heart. He thought to himself, it was rare to see Immortal Ning being so genuine and angry.
Ning Mingmei did have a bad feeling at this moment.
Where does this premonition come from? Is it Wen Siheng and Duan Ying, or Gui Ruoxue's side, or the battlefield where Feng Shihou and others are ambushed? Ning Mingmei hated this aimless premonition, and finally, he turned his gaze to Jiang Duo.
Jiang Duo stood with his hands behind his back, looking leisurely all the time, and did not join Feng Shi Hou's battle against the old ghost king.
It seems that Jiang Duo really looks down on the affairs of the ghost world. Or maybe Feng Shi Hou invited him here without expecting him to help throughout the process - his existence was just an insurance. An insurance for when Fengshi Hou is defeated by Old Ghost King.
But this went against Ning Mingmei's plan.
Ning Mingmei's original plan A was to wait until they were all defeated and then bring his disciples to join the battle. Considering the combat effectiveness of everyone in the ghost world, this is the best choice. After all, Ning Mingmei could not guarantee that Guan Wei and Fu Weidao would be able to arrive at the scene in time.
And their arrival will also bring about a problem - what should Chang Feichang and Mu Hanshan do then?
There was a shortage of slaves in the mountains behind Ning Mingmei all year round. But Guanwei obviously intended to kill Chang Feichang. At the same time, the Elders' Council also regarded Ning Mingmei as a thorn in their side. Taking into account Ning Mingmei's delicate life experience and his relationship with the mob, Ning Mingmei was unwilling to let Chang Feichang be captured by Qingji Sect.
But if Jiang Duo does not take action, Ning Mingmei can only use Plan B - Huang Zhutao will lead the battle with the people in the ghost world, and he will be responsible for luring Jiang Duo away. With Ning Mingmei's face and Jiang Heng's cold painting screen, Ning Mingmei was confident that he could complete the task.
But Ning Mingmei didn't believe that the remaining disciples could rescue the seven disciples from the hands of the Old Ghost King and Fengshi Hou.
Sometimes, as you go deeper into the world, fighting alone becomes increasingly difficult to sustain. Ning Mingmei is a human being, not a god. As the war between immortals and demons broke out and as the number of aspects he needed to consider increased, he increasingly needed comrades-in-arms whom he could trust.
After all, the highest level of cultivation he could achieve in this life could only be the Great Perfection of Spirit Transformation.
If there was someone else around... Ning Mingmei frowned. He looked at Jiang Duo and suddenly thought of someone.
This was the first time Ning Mingmei thought of him after he left, not when he was short of money or blood.
Qi Mian Cheng.
"If Qi Miancheng is here, we can ask him to stay and preside over it... No, let him lead Jiang Duo away. It will be safer for me this way." Ning Mingmei whispered, "Brother, you are such a perfect meat cushion."
Ning Mingmei couldn't guess what Qi Miancheng was thinking. But there was an inexplicable tacit understanding that made him know that Qi Miancheng would complete this task very well. He had always been so helpful, and was even willing to hand over his passbook to Ning Mingmei several times before his death.
"Qi Miancheng..."
Lian Chengyue wondered, how many times had he heard the name "Qi Miancheng" from Ning Mingmei's mouth?
Ning Mingmei always mentioned Qi Miancheng when he needed help the most. Whether it is on the altar or here in the battle of the ghost world. Ning Mingmei doesn't need help easily, but Qi Miancheng is an exception. It seemed that these two brothers had really gone through thick and thin together, so much so that Ning Mingmei often thought of him in the eight years after his disappearance.
This made Lian Chengyue feel uncomfortable. But he suddenly realized that this might be an opportunity.
The best opportunity is to perform when the Immortal Lord needs you most!
Shi Ruzhuo was originally resting in the ring. Gui Ruoxue left to rescue Ye Xuefei and the others. On the one hand, he was surprised that Gui Ruoxue would actually obey Ning Mingmei's orders, and on the other hand, he felt mocking in his heart - he told himself that he must never be driven by Ning Mingmei, and must never be like Gui Ruoxue.
Gui Ruoxue is, after all, in the Spirit Transformation Stage, and is still too naive and young. But he is an old man in the Nascent Soul stage. I wonder how much more experience he has than Gui Ruoxue? When he comes out of the ring, he will definitely make fun of Gui Ruoxue.
But Lian Chengyue said at this moment: "Old senior..."
Shi Ruzhuo felt his scalp tingling - he didn't know why, but ever since Ning Mingmei showed up, every time Lian Chengyue communicated with him, it would give him this tingling feeling on his scalp. He asked, "What?"
Lian Chengyue: "Old senior, you seem to be in the Void Refining Stage."
“…”
Lian Chengyue: "Old senior, since you can try to control my body when you are angry, I believe you must have some strength. In this case, can I ask you to control my body and lead Jiang Duo into the trap later?"
"Are you kidding?" Shi Ruzhuo was shocked.
Lian Chengyue: "Old senior, I will keep you close to my heart. This way, if Jiang Duo wants to attack me, he will hit you first. Besides, you also want to enter Piaomiao Peak, right?"
“……???”
Lian Chengyue: "Gui Ruoxue is a monk from the back mountain of Piaomiao Peak."
"I work for Ning Mingmei? I go to Piao Miao Peak?"
Under Shi Ruzhuo's protest, Lian Chengyue found Ning Mingmei and said without blinking, "Immortal Lord, I am willing to take on the task of leading Jiang Duo away."
Even though he already knew that Lian Chengyue would do anything to climb up the ladder, Ning Mingmei still looked at him with a hard-to-find expression: "You? Foundation Establishment Stage?"
Lian Chengyue said: "Since the Immortal Venerable said that the painting screen is what Jiang Duo needs. And the trap has been set, then it will be the same whether I or the Immortal Venerable go. Moreover, our Lian family has a special skill that can make me run very fast."
Ning Mingmei looked him up and down strangely. He knew that Lian Chengyue would not speak without a purpose. Since he spoke like this, he must be confident. Finally he said, "What do you want?"
What do you want in return?
Wanting to become the disciple of Immortal Ning... Thousands of words flowed through Lian Chengyue's mind for a moment, and finally turned into four words: "Extra points for the college entrance examination."
Extra points for the college entrance examination... not even direct admission. Ning Mingmei reflected on whether he had pushed Lian Chengyue too hard, and asked the system: "Does Lian Chengyue have the skill to revive on the spot?"
system:"……"
Ning Mingmei: "Be happy, I finally started to care about Lian Chengyue's life and death."
This really makes it difficult for the system to be happy. It can only say: "...Yes."
Finally, Ning Mingmei said: "Okay, I'll give you this chance."
Lian Chengyue was delighted. He was getting ready when he suddenly heard Ning Mingmei say, "Lian Chengyue."
"Um?"
"Sometimes, some things are indeed very tempting. But nothing is more important than life." Ning Mingmei said, "I know you will do anything to pursue something. This time, be careful."
Lian Chengyue was filled with joy. He said softly, "I will."
Over there, the old ghost king was fighting fiercely with the ghosts. Even though he was stronger than everyone else, he was old after all, and the ghosts had already rehearsed many times targeting his weaknesses, so he gradually fell into a disadvantage. After seeing Fengshi Hou fighting with him, he laughed and said, "I didn't expect that you would be the one to send me off in the end. You are also the one who knows my weaknesses best!"
Feng Shi Hou was also seriously injured. He was guilty in his heart, but his face showed selflessness: "Old Ghost King, you are old and no longer worthy of being the king of the ghost world! It's time to give way to the virtuous!"
"I am old, but are you not old too?" said the old ghost king. "Look at the fear in your eyes... You are afraid of aging and death! Where is the warrior who said a thousand years ago that the fate of the ghost clan was to become the strongest in endless slaughter and was not afraid of life or death?"
When talking about what happened a thousand years ago, Fengshihou's hands trembled. In front of his subordinates, he rarely showed a resentful expression: "A thousand years ago? Old Ghost King, this is all your fault! If you had not been deceived by the Ghost Queen a thousand years ago, but continued our policy, how could our Ghost Realm have ended here? And how could I have stopped at the Void Refining Stage? The Ghost Realm originally had a good opportunity to reach the top, but you gave it up!"
“A thousand years ago?” The old ghost king suddenly sighed, and a trace of clarity and a bitter smile finally appeared in his turbid eyes. “Do you think that I chose to give up and restrict you because I love Yun Simu? Do you think that I did it just for Yun Simu? After a thousand years, you still think so.”
"Take action!" Fengshi Hou shouted loudly.
More than ten spears pierced the old ghost king's body. At the same time, the old ghost king's palm also pierced through Fengshi Hou's chest. There was blood in his mouth, but he looked at him without blinking. With every word he spoke, blood flowed out of his throat: "Marquis Fengxi, you thought you defeated me, but in fact, you have already lost..."
Feng Shi Hou looked at him. He was also vomiting blood, but his yellow eyes showed ecstasy.
The old ghost king has been completely subdued. As long as he dies completely, his power will flow into Feng Shihou's body. By then, all the fatal injuries on his body will be repaired.
"There are some things that we cannot see, not because they are wrong, but because they appear at the wrong time. Even if it is broken, it is far more beautiful than those meticulously carved pavilions and towers..." the old ghost king murmured, "even more beautiful... Yun Simu said that this was the last words that Weng Xingyun said to her before he died..."
"It seems that you are really crazy." Feng Shihou just looked at him with disgust, as if he was looking at a madman who was talking nonsense.
He could feel his life slipping away, so he said with difficulty: "Wu Fang, you're back? Quick, kill Feng Shi Hou, and bring those humans here!"
Wu Fang said nothing and walked towards Fengshihou step by step. Fengshihou saw the Demon Lord Jiangduo in his peripheral vision. In the melee just now, all the ghosts and demons took action, but he was the only one standing in the corner with his hands behind his back, watching them as if he was watching a show.
This demon king!
Feng Shihou was very angry, but there was nothing he could do. This is what is meant by "the power is stronger than the people". Now he needs help from the demon world. But it doesn’t matter. After he absorbs the power of the old ghost king and destroys the human world, he will also launch an attack on the demon world.
A gleam of greed flashed in Fengshihou's eyes. But at this moment, he saw a white flash before his eyes, as if a magical weapon flashed by. At this moment, a seriously injured demon cultivator on the ground shouted, "Someone is attacking us!"
The sneak attack on the man failed. But the demon cultivator also recognized the magic weapon: "That's... Leng Huaping!"
This object was once a sacred object in the demon world, and its owner was also well-known - the same was true of the relationship between its owner and Jiang Duo.
At this moment, Feng Shihou saw Jiang Duo hesitate for a moment, and then chased after him!
"...Damn it." Feng Shi Hou thought.
Things have changed. Feng Shihou was very uneasy. But fortunately, the big thing is about to succeed. He looked at Wu Fang and said in a hoarse voice: "What are you hesitating about? Why don't you…"
A sword pierced his chest. Feng Shi Hou was in a trance and saw the world in front of him suddenly change. A man appeared in front of him. He was dressed in black, had thin and slightly raised lips, and beautiful but cold eyebrows.
Better to be clear and ignorant.
"Marquis Fengshi, I've heard a lot about you. I have brought back several disciples that were lodged with you." Ning Mingmei said.
At the same time, Huang Zhutao, holding lightsabers, and other disciples took action. They chopped down the remaining ghost cultivators who were still able to struggle. Gui Ruoxue who came hurriedly also gave her another injection of silver needles.
"Here's the wig, I leave it to you." Ning Mingmei said loudly.
Gui Ruoxue was about to nod... when she saw Ning Mingmei pull out four swords from his Qiankun bag. He quickly thrust each one into Feng Shi Hou's body, successfully locking down his movement and life.
Gui Ruoxue was shocked: "No, why did you insert four swords?"
Ning Mingmei raised his head and said, "This was taught to me by an old friend of mine..."
"Isn't he just your senior brother?! Damn, why do all the people from your Qingji Sect look the same?" Gui Ruoxue was shocked.
Ning Ming thought to himself that that was not the case, only he and Qi Miancheng looked like this. Qi Miancheng only carried three swords with him, but he was much more capable than Qi Miancheng.
Ning Mingmei walked away. Over there, Shi Ruzhuo was controlling Lian Chengyue's body to run wildly. Lian Chengyue also said: "Old senior, you are really experienced in running, you must have experienced a lot of learning on the road of being hunted by the righteous!"
Shi Ruzhuo: ...You can just shut up if you don't want to talk!
Lian Chengyue: "Old senior, run well again, and we will enter Piaomiao Peak together!"
...Shamefully, Shi Ruzhuo felt his body was full of energy...Oh, this is Lian Chengyue's body. Finally, he ran to the target point and led Jiang Duo in.
"superior!"
The magic circle was triggered, and mysterious metal rose from the ground. After seeing everything in front of him, Jiang Duo first showed a mocking look.
"Metallic?"
Jiangduo is of thunder attribute, and as we all know, gold can conduct electricity. The metal attribute has always been restrained by the thunder attribute. One by one, they were electrocuted and fell to the ground, becoming trembling losers.
But after this thing reached its ceiling, Jiang Duo couldn't laugh anymore.
"My power..."
Jiang Duo was shocked to find that he had no way to control the external lightning element to split the cage!
Lian Chengyue was standing outside the cage. He looked up suddenly and saw Ning Mingmei had arrived.
Jiang Duo has the spirit root of thunder, therefore, this place is a trap set up for him!
Faraday cage!
Faraday cage that can achieve electrostatic shielding!
"Well done!" Ning Mingmei said.
He took action, opened the wooden mechanism, tied up Jiang Duo, and injected poison into his neck. Jiang Duo was paralyzed for a moment and could not move.
Lian Chengyue said: "Immortal! We succeeded!"
But Ning Mingmei didn't smile. He stared at Jiang Duo in the cage, frowning, as if all this was happening too fast. Finally, he suddenly took out the water from the Wangchuan River and splashed it on Jiang Duo's face!
The disguise used to disguise flows down the face. At that moment, Ning Mingmei's expression changed.
"He is not Jiang Duo!"
The person who appeared in the cage was not Jiang Duo, but another demon general. At this moment, he was looking at Ning Mingmei with mocking and resentful eyes. Lian Chengyue was also shocked. He said, "Impossible. We have been monitoring him since the Ghost Town. There is no chance that he could be replaced during this period!"
"There is no chance of being replaced... unless the person who came here was not Jiang Duo from the beginning. He was so high-profile in Ghost Town and did not take any action in the Ghost King Palace, just to make everyone think that he came to the ghost world... Oh no, Xiang Wuxing is in danger!" Ning Mingmei said.
The demon general in the Faraday cage was also stunned. At this moment, he looked at Ning Mingmei's face intently for the first time. After seeing Ning Mingmei's face clearly, his expression changed: "You are..."
Ning Mingmei was no longer in the mood to reply to him. He took out his cell phone to send a message to Xiang Wuxing, but there was no signal in the Ghost King Palace and the message could not be sent at all.
