Chapter 322 Brothers join forces
"Wow~"

All the demon soldiers and generals turned around and formed a battle formation, facing forward.

Lin Shan was also suddenly shocked. He turned around in the formation to look at the source, and his face changed color slightly.

A black rainbow light flew quickly from afar, leaving behind wisps of demonic energy, domineering, wanton and aggressive.

He came straight at Lin Shan with an extremely arrogant attitude without saying a word, not giving him any chance to ask any questions, and was heading straight towards him like a comet!

"Oh!"

The surging air tide spread out, breaking countless stalactites and stalagmites. The underground river below stirred up thousands of layers of water, and even some shallows exposed the riverbed.

Lin Shan closed his eyes and opened them in an instant, only to see the three Jindan stage demon generals in front of the formation retract their claws. Their huge bodies gave people an unparalleled sense of security, and the seven armies remained motionless, as solid as a rock.

The black shadow came with great momentum, but was knocked back by the army in the blink of an eye. It shot back like a meteor and disappeared without a trace along the way it came.

"."

I'm most afraid of the sudden silence in the air.
Lin Shan looked puzzled.

What the hell?

What was that just now?
It almost scared me!
He scratched his ears, looking confused, not even knowing who his opponent was.

It came and went quickly, like an elusive gust of wind. What on earth happened just now?
However, there was no one in front.

Just
These days, there are always villains who want to harm me!
It is important to search for Lu Yu stalactites elsewhere first!

Lin Shan couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think much about it. He just led his troops and set off in another direction to continue searching.

……

"Bang bang bang bang."

"Pfft~"

"cough cough"

The old ghost Black Dragon was coughing up blood all the way and fleeing for his life, rushing around in this vast stone forest. He was as arrogant as he was when he left.

He is still in shock. He didn't expect that when he just chased forward and saw the young man in white clothes was excited to see his prey, a group of demons below suddenly attacked without warning and severely injured him in an instant!
You must know that even when the seven Jindan Zhenren joined forces, they only dared to dodge and flee in front of Lin Shan's army and did not dare to fight hard at all.

The old ghost Black Dragon was better. He thought that these demon soldiers were the same as the old, weak and sick group of the Yuanlu Demon King. He rushed into the enemy camp without any mental preparation and fought against seven armies alone. The natural consequence of his stubbornness was that he suffered psychological trauma.

If he hadn't assessed the situation and escaped the same way immediately after being knocked flying, who knows what terrible consequences he would have suffered!

"Who is that young man in white? Why is he guarded by such a large army?"

He finally understood why the seven Jindan Zhenren, who had their Lu Yu stalactite robbed, dared not even fart, but could only flee far away and plot in secret, and no one dared to go back for revenge.

It turns out that these people had suffered a lot before, but they didn’t tell me!
The Black Mountain Ghost not only had his eyes on Lin Shan, but also hated those people.

Dare to play tricks on me
He returned to the place in a rage, only to find that those Jindan Zhenren had long disappeared.

……

On the other side, there was an even more massive encounter.

Zhong Shenxiu led the demon soldiers and fought against more than ten Jindan Zhenren. He himself stood on a ten-foot-long white mirage dragon. He looked relaxed in the clouds and mist, and held a jade bottle containing reed jade stalactites in his hand.

He also succeeded in one move!
However, the situation on the field came to a stalemate. Due to a slight delay, more and more Jindan Zhenren were attracted over. Not only were the demon army under his command tied down, but he himself was also almost ambushed.

If he hadn't used up a life-saving talisman to protect himself, he would probably be dead now.

Fortunately, after summoning the mirage dragon, it hid in the void of numerous illusions, and safety was finally greatly increased.

He cast his gaze on the two poor old scholars who were standing motionless in the distance. It was these two who had teamed up and almost launched a sneak attack on him just now.

The two elders Jingxuan!
He was also a prominent figure in the cultivation world of the State of Lu. He once quit the Shangyang Academy in anger because he was dissatisfied with the filth within it and became a freelance cultivator.

Both of them are veteran cultivators at the peak of the middle Jindan stage. They have been inseparable for many years, and their skills and minds are connected. When they work together, they are no less powerful than those in the late Jindan stage.

After the sneak attack failed, he did not shy away from concealing his target and continued to stare closely at the jade bottle in Zhong Shenxiu's hand.

"Don't waste your time. The Luyu stalactite is already in my hands. I don't think you can take it back. Why don't you go find another place instead of wasting your time here?"

Zhong Shenxiu did not take action. He was on guard against the two elders Jingxuan and allowed the demon army below to fight with a group of Jindan stage cultivators.

With the help of the military souls, several Jindan Zhenren were seriously injured, but at this moment their eyes were red and they looked crazy, it must be that they had just had their peaches picked on them and were now furious.

"If you didn't rely on these beasts to help you, how could a young man who had just entered the early stage of the Golden Core dare to be so proud in front of us?"

Zhong Shenxiu smiled: "I spent a lot of effort to help the Kuihu Demon King break into Hongya Cave to gain support from the forces that support these demon soldiers. If it weren't for me, you would never be able to enter Hongya Cave in your lifetime. I reap what I sowed, and the Luyu stalactite should be mine!"

A group of Jindan Zhenren simply didn't want to listen to him explaining the cause and effect. Anyway, their spiritual objects were stolen, but they just wouldn't accept it!
"Zhong Shenxiu, do you really think that you can rest easy with the demon army?"

"You don't have your own strength, but rely on external intervention to forcibly take away the spiritual objects. Aren't you afraid that we will spread the news and call on everyone to resist? What will you do then?"

"The formation of these beasts is indeed powerful and can hold off a dozen people, but what about twenty or thirty people? There are quite a few Jindan Zhenren in Hongya Cave this time, so don't make the mistake!"

"It's not too late to hand over the Luyu stalactite now so that we can discuss how to distribute it!"

……

The demon army below was also intelligent. When they heard these humans calling them "beasts" one after another, they became furious and shouted at them to give them a good beating. If they were so arrogant in the forbidden area on the cliff, who else should we beat?
Zhong Shenxiu said in a nonchalant tone: "You should know that these seven armies of mine are the direct descendants of the old Kuihu Demon King. I am just lending them to you to fight for the spiritual milk. If you dare to really gang up on me and destroy them all, then..."

"If the demon king gets angry, the entire forbidden area of ​​the cliff will use all its forces to hunt you down. May I ask how you will deal with it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, those Jindan Zhenren immediately felt the pressure and began to hesitate to take action.

The Kuihu Demon King was the overlord of the southern part of the Cliff Forbidden Land. Now that he has completely defeated the Yuanlu Demon King, his sphere of influence has skyrocketed.

If you offend the local boss in someone else's territory, the consequences will be very miserable.
Zhong Shenxiu struck while the iron was hot and patiently guided the students.

"Besides, although I am not talented, I have the support of my elders behind me. If you go too far, you will inevitably be held accountable by my elders when you return to Lu. Will the forces behind you be able to bear the consequences?"

It is not shameful to move the backstage, especially at this critical moment, everything that can be used should be used as a bargaining chip, this is the right way. Zhong Shenxiu moved the top force of Lu State, Bailu Academy, and did not hesitate to oppress the forces behind them. This move can escape the monk but not the temple, just like the previous group of Jindan Zhenren threatening Lin Shan.

It’s a pity that those people can’t threaten Lin Shan, but Zhong Shenxiu has the ability to threaten these people.

The expressions of the Jindan Zhenren of Lu State present changed. After careful consideration, they pulled each other's hands and left the field. This left one-third of the positions vacant. The pressure on the remaining Demonic Zhenren surged, and they couldn't help but shout angrily.

"What are you doing? The Luyu stalactite is right in front of us. We are about to be buried. Why are you still concerned about the forces behind us?"

In the eyes of most people in the magic world, if a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. There are many people who sacrifice their disciples for their own interests. Anyway, as long as they are still there, the family sect can be built anywhere.

If you die, won’t the little inheritance you have left be swallowed up by your opponents?

But the Confucians would not think so. Except for the majority of independent practitioners, most of them really care about their own power and cannot be so heartless and unrighteous.

Now the demon soldiers instantly gained the upper hand and beat these evil masters into fleeing in all directions.

Just then, another piece of news came that another immortal genius from the State of Lu had also obtained the Reed Jade Stalactite. This stunned everyone!

Zhong Shenxiu was also shocked. He didn't expect Lin Shan to succeed so quickly.

There are no more than three or five reed stalactites in Hongya Cave. Now it is known that two of them have disappeared. If we don’t hurry up to look for the rest, we may miss them completely!

Seeing that they had no way to deal with Zhong Shenxiu, the two elders Jingxuan immediately left together, not wanting to waste time with him.

The Jindan Zhenren around had no choice but to disperse and find another place to search.

Zhong Shenxiu waited until everyone had left before he retracted his magical powers and his face suddenly turned pale.

The magic power consumed to maintain the sect's magical power is simply not something that ordinary people can bear. It is fortunate that he has a strong foundation. But even so, if that group of people insist on wasting time, he might have to abandon the demon army and escape alone.

Now that the news from Lin Shan has spread, it is equivalent to inadvertently saving him from trouble.

Next, the genius of Bailu Academy frowned, looking at the demon soldiers under his command whose morale was high, he felt reluctant to withdraw like this. Like Lin Shan, he had the ambition to get more.

But now the mana is not enough.
He didn't have enough time to take some elixirs and spirit stones to recover slowly.

Then
Without much thought, Zhong Shenxiu made the decision immediately.

Take out the small bottle containing the reed stalactite, gently pour out a drop and drop it into your mouth.

In an instant, all the limbs and bones seemed to be wrapped in hot springs, and the warm feeling spread all over the body. The magic power was directly filled up, and all conditions were restored in an instant!
"As expected of the Reed Jade Stalactite, it is truly a natural gift for restoring the power of the Golden Core Stage!"

Zhong Shenxiu sighed, thinking that one should not sacrifice one's own child to catch a wolf, and he put the small bottle away with great care.

As a fourth-level spiritual object, the Luyu stalactite is just right for restoring the mana of the Jindan stage. If you want to restore the true essence of the Yuanying stage, you should need the legendary ten thousand year spiritual milk.
Nascent Soul stage, recovery, huh?

Zhong Shenxiu's thoughts suddenly wandered and he realized a problem.

Where is the Ming Snake Demon King?
……

Lin Shan led his troops and was invincible along the way. Anyone who saw him along the way took a detour and didn't even dare to meet him.

Didn’t you see the aggressive elite demon clan?

The story of this kid has been spread directly in a small area of ​​Hongya Cave by the group headed by Master Shang Ding, but the matter has not yet fermented.

Because it takes time to spread, and now everyone is racing against time to explore unknown areas, so it is impossible to spend energy on picking hard nuts to crack.

There was no way to organize the group, and no one dared to cause trouble for Lin Shan.

This allowed him to have a smooth journey, crossing countless underground rivers, passing through caves, and arriving deep in the hinterland from the south.

In his eyes, the only two people who could compete with him in Hongya Cave were Zhong Shenxiu and Young Master Jiuyou.

These two brothers have the same number of troops under their command as himself, which is enough to sweep away all kinds of monsters. If you ask who will get the Lu Yu Stalactite in the end, these three have the greatest chance.

Searched for a while.

Across a long corridor ahead, there is a huge cave stretching as far as the eye can see.

Looking from a distance, it seemed that more and more people were gathering together.

Lin Shan sensed that there were at least more than twenty Jindan stage cultivators, and there were even more low-level cultivators in the Qi training and foundation building stage below, which accounted for most of the people who came to Hongya Cave this time!
With so many people gathered together, there must be something fishy going on.

Lin Shan hesitated for a moment, but still led his men to rush over.

When I got there, I found that everyone was gathered in a circle with a large area of ​​stalactites and stalagmites in the middle. It turned out to be another reed-jade stalactite!
This should be the third place, after all it was found after so many people searched it thoroughly.

I don’t know if there are other caves in Hongya Cave, but this one is very likely the last one!
Everyone was coming in droves, and some people even called friends from afar.

No one dared to cross the line, for fear that if they were the first to take action, they would be attacked by the crowd.

When Lin Shan arrived here, the movement of his troops was so loud that it attracted most of the attention.

Among them, Shang Ding Zhenren and Shi En Sanren, who had had grudges with him before, were all present.

Of course, there is also the old black dragon ghost who was defeated by his demon soldiers and was now looking at him with a hidden gaze.

Thanks to the publicity by Master Shang Ding, almost everyone knew that Lin Shan had a complete set of reed jade stalactites in his hands.

Gazes, spiritual awareness, and even wisps of energy surrounded him, like sharp knives stabbing his body, making the hairs on his body stand on end!
Lin Shan was nervous and his palms were sweating. He had the Wind Escape Talisman ready on his sleeve and was just about to look around to see if there was anyone he knew.

Just at this moment, the sound of galloping and roaring came from the other side, mixed with surprised greetings.

“Tap tap tap tap tap~~~”

“Hahahahahahaha, what happened here that attracted so many fellow Taoists? I thought they were at a market!”

"Hey, second brother, you are here too!"

At the critical moment, Zhong Shenxiu led his troops to arrive in time.

After seeing the situation clearly, he immediately joined forces with Lin Shan, and the two brothers stood side by side.
