The scene of flying earth and rocks and falling flames flashed across Lu Liangsheng's vision. The raging flames covered the sky, the air was distorted, and countless rocks and soil below rushed towards the sea of fire, leaving a clear mark in the middle.
boom-
Magic power shook, flames, earth and rocks trembled, and huge ripples spread in all directions under the magic and demonic power of both sides. Mountains, rocks and forests were all cut and cracked. A nearby hilltop was forcibly moved bare, and it collapsed with a crackling sound.
"Haha, it's not easy to become a thousand-year-old tree demon. I won't kill you either. Just surrender! Follow me back to Ziling Mountain!"
The surging flames pushed away the earth and rocks that hit them, and split into hundreds and thousands of flames that shuttled around. Fire overcomes wood, and the fire in his hand was not an ordinary fire, but a magic weapon obtained from Wuse Manor, specially prepared for today.
The woman in the black dress pulled her hands off the ground, turned around and fled underground, trying to avoid the raging flames.
There was a tremor in the sky, and Shi Huo's figure suddenly retracted the flames. He raised his head to look at the mountains in the distance. A figure with a Taoist bun and holding a dustpan in his hand, stroking his long beard, was looking at him.
Holy Fire Master immediately bowed down. The figure on the top of the mountain had a smile in his eyes and flicked his wide sleeves printed with Yin-Yang and Eight Diagrams.
The sound was like rolling thunder.
"Little demon, where are you going!"
The cuffs suddenly spread out, and the surrounding forests shook wildly towards the man on the hill. The tree trunks broke with crackling sounds. As if with infinite suction, all the dirt and rocks on the ground were blown back into the air, and the tree monster hiding underground was also pulled out alive and swept into the air.
“Ahh—”
The graceful figure struggled backwards, her hair in disarray as she screamed, "... You will surely suffer three disasters and five calamities in the future!!!"
The black-skirted tree demon's body seemed to be shrunk and was quickly sucked into the man's sleeve. After a moment, Dharma words were heard on the top of the mountain.
"Come back and get it back after the monster passes."
At the foot of the mountain, Holy Fire Master bowed his head and knelt down, and several people beside him also prostrated themselves on the ground.
"yes."
…
Seeing the tree demon being taken into the man's wide sleeves, Lu Liangsheng felt it looked quite familiar and subconsciously touched the wide sleeves. It was very similar to the time when he used the purple gold and black patterned gourd to capture the white fox demon.
'It turns out that the tree demon was taken away by that person. Just by shaking his sleeves, he is so powerful...'
Unfortunately, it is just a memory in a dream, and I cannot feel the reality of the other party. However, since I already know the name of the place, the only thing left is the last step of the plan.
Lu Liangsheng gathered his thoughts and prepared to leave his spiritual consciousness. However, at that moment, he suddenly turned his head to look at the top of the mountain. It was just a scene in the memory of the tree demon, but it did not break.
Over there, the figure holding the Taoist robe slowly turned his head, as if he had seen him, his eyes were electric and saw through everything.
'not good!'
Lu Liangsheng quickly released his spiritual consciousness and flew back along the spiritual line. The lush greenery slowly disappeared from his sight, and darkness swept in like a tide.
Bang!
The demon-subduing mirror on the altar exploded, scaring the Taoist priest nearby and causing him to jump up: "Yan Chixia, help!"
The bearded man who was guarding one side did not dare to be careless. He slammed the wooden box with his hands, and small swords with magical light flew out and nailed into the floor along Lu Liangsheng and the tree demon. Then, he sat cross-legged on the ground, made magical seals with his hands, and moved his lips quickly, reciting magical spells to calm the soul.
Sun Yingxian was also quick. She bit her index finger and followed the red line that was connecting Lu Liangsheng and the tree demon, wiped off the blood, and with her other hand she took out two talismans and stuck them on the backs of the man and the demon with two bangs.
"Ghosts and gods of all four directions, listen to my command, protect the red line, this is the soul of Lu Liangsheng, the spirit is immortal, the body is not broken..."
As he recited the sacrificial words, his bleeding fingertips pressed against the trembling red line, not daring to move an inch. A layer of fine beads of sweat oozed out of his face and slid down his chin, dripping down one drop after another, wetting a large area of his chest.
"I can't hold on any longer, what the hell is going on over there!!"
Downstairs, the Toad Taoist priest was sitting by the wall, stretching his short legs. He put down the menu, raised his head to look upstairs, and quickly stood up and climbed the wooden steps.
Seeing the shattered bronze mirror and the Taoist priest sweating profusely, he spread his flippers and ran as fast as he could, then jumped up and rushed straight towards his disciple.
At the same time, Sun Yingxian suddenly yelled: "Master Lu, wake up—"
Under the bleeding fingertips, the red line made a trembling "bang" sound and broke directly, and the Toad Taoist also crashed into Lu Liangsheng's waist in an instant.
The eyes of the figure sitting cross-legged and slightly leaning twitched, Lu Liangsheng suddenly opened his eyes and let out a deep breath.
In the field of vision, the Buddha was sitting on the altar, the bronze mirror on it was shattered to the ground, and the sandalwood in the incense burner broke into two pieces and fell on the platform, leaving smoke.
The Taoist was yelling with his bleeding finger in his mouth, and his words could be heard buzzing. The Toad Taoist was staggering around in circles with his white belly bulging, rubbing his head continuously. Yan Chixia was leaning against the wall, panting, and sweat was dripping down the tip of his beard.
Outside, there was the braying of an old donkey and the sound of Zuo Zhengyang swinging a knife in the woods; the sense of reality finally returned.
Lu Liangsheng propped himself up on his knees and wiped the sweat off his face. The tree demon in the magic circle swayed and fell down with a bang. He reached out his hand to his forehead and found that he was just sleeping.
I couldn't help but laugh, walked to the crooked window frame covered with cobwebs, and pushed it open.
'Who is that person...'
Lu Liangsheng took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air, and his senses gradually became clear. He remembered that the figure of the man on the top of the mountain was somewhat familiar, but he had never seen him before.
Behind me, my senses were clear and the Taoist's words were chattering away.
"Hey, hey, I'm asking you a question."
"… What happened to you over there? Who did you see?"
"Are you troubled by the demon spirit, or confused by the other party's appearance... Hey, Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, can you hear what I am saying?"
The Toad Taoist covered his head and sat down: "Don't call him, he is still in a trance."
"I'm in the Dryad's dream."
At this time, Lu Liangsheng withdrew his thoughts and calmed down his previous emotions. He looked at the concerned eyes of his master, the Taoist priest, and Yan Chixia, and walked over to sit down.
"I also saw how she was taken away. There was another person behind Holy Fire Master, but it was too far away to see his face clearly."
The Taoist priest was fed up with it, so he stood up from the ground and brushed off the dust from behind.
"Well, the cultivation level of a Holy Fire Master is already high enough. The person behind him is probably already an immortal. He can't stand it!"
Dust filled the air. Toad, with his flippers on his back, turned his head slightly and said, "If I could return to my original state..."
Before he could finish, Lu Liangsheng interrupted and said:
"Only deal with Holy Fire Master and the Fire Prayer Sect."
Now that it has come to this, Lu Liangsheng is unwilling to give up. "He mentioned a place in the tree demon's dream. Maybe that is his real cave."
"I heard from this old man..."
The Taoist passed the flapping and jumping toad and walked towards the stairs, waving his hands repeatedly: "No, no, it's better to go back to Qixia Mountain to practice. When I reach the golden elixir level and learn the art of sky-falling lightning, I will blow him to death!"
thunder?!
Lu Liangsheng looked at the Taoist priest, his expression suddenly froze. The toad next to him stopped waving its flippers, blinked at Sun Yingxian, slowly turned his head, and looked at his disciple who was also looking at him.
They all nodded.
"The power of heaven is untouchable. When the divine thunder descends, all evil will be subdued!"
Sun Yingxian stopped, turned around and saw the master and disciple staring at him. He subconsciously stepped back and leaned against the wooden pillar. Dust fell on his head and shoulders.
"Hey, hey, look at me with your eyes."
Hahaha!
Yan Chixia, who was leaning against the wall, spread his beard and laughed heartily, causing the Taoist to turn his head and shout, "What are you laughing at again?!"
The bearded man stopped laughing, propped up the wooden box and spread his hands.
"I don't know either. The atmosphere seems tense. Let's ease it up!"
Over there, Lu Liangsheng picked up his master and put him on his shoulders, then held the tree demon on the ground horizontally in his arms. When he looked at the Taoist priest, he spoke out his thoughts, which made Sun Yingxian's Taoist hat jump a little.
"Aren't you almost reaching the Golden Core stage? How about going to the Holy Fire Master's house to transcend the tribulation?"
