Chapter 359: Seven Formations Superimposed, the Soul Treasure

After some reminiscing.

Lin Shan roughly talked about his past after coming to the forbidden area on the cliff, as well as the environment he is currently in. Certain gains and details that are inconvenient to disclose are hidden.

Even so, the Black Skull Demon Lord was stunned!
During the time I was away, I gained a new understanding of this kid's legendary experience.

"What did you say? You helped the late Nascent Soul Demon King from the Cliff Forbidden Land defeat another Demon King enemy?"

"No way, I want to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn't allow it!"

"You also destroyed the reincarnation body of a demon king in the Star Devouring Mountains and stole his ten thousand year old spiritual milk?"

"I don't want to either. I can only blame myself for being too good."

"You fell into the turbulent space and didn't die. You also mixed into our old enemy, Qianyun Pavilion and Qingyang Peak in this strange world fragment?"

"Hey~ It's just luck~ Keep a low profile~"

"You also discovered the evil demon from outer space at the exit of this underground ruins, a secret that has been hidden for hundreds of thousands of years?"

"That's right!"

Having said that, Lin Shan was no longer nonchalant and his expression was extremely solemn.

He did not tell the Black Skull Demon Lord about Xiaodie, but simply told it that he had secretly discovered the secret of the evil demons from outer space. He did not expect that there was a fish that escaped the net and survived, and has been hiding in the void outside the world, preparing for war and recuperating!
"How big are their remains now? After hundreds of thousands of years, could they have recovered?"

The Black Skull Demon Lord took a deep breath, feeling the difficulty of the situation.

Lin Shan recalled the scene he had just seen from the observation deck.

"It's quite large, occupying an entire continent. I even saw a void fleet appearing there."

"Sigh~"

The Black Skull Demon Lord is a connoisseur and naturally knows what the Void Fleet represents.

This old monster is in hell, focusing on taking orders, traveling around the world, and has extremely rich experience.

"There are actually far more evil demons from outer space than the one you see."

"More than 100,000 years ago, in a large empty area of ​​your world, many worlds were invaded by various evil demons from outer space at the same time."

"The strength of each world is different, and the attacking alien demons are also strong and weak. Therefore, a considerable number of worlds have completely fallen into the hands of the alien demons."

"Every time they conquer a place, they will violently and unrestrainedly exploit the world, leaving it desolate and providing them with a steady supply of energy and warships. The snowballing trend is getting more and more intense."

"Later, it was said that if they had not had problems back home and had not withdrawn their troops in an orderly manner and abandoned this area, it would not have been so easy for us to win and recover the lost territory."

……

The Black Skull Demon Lord tells the story slowly and eloquently, revealing secrets buried deep in the ancient history.

As for what exactly went wrong within the alien evil group back then, this is unknown, and it has become a mystery that has been passed down to this day.

"You really don't need to tell anyone about this. Not only will you expose yourself to the public, but you may also cause panic in the cultivation world. You will also alert the enemy and draw the dissatisfaction of the local powerful!"

"When you are weak, you should know how to protect yourself. It is right to hide yourself. It is best not to step into such a big whirlpool. Just pretend that you didn't see anything!"

"When you have enough strength in the future, it won't be too late to consider this matter. If the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up."

The Black Skull Demon Lord thought that Lin Shan had just taken a few peeks and had no encounter with the evil demons from outer space. He didn't know that this disaster had destroyed an entire void fleet!

If he knew, he might have been frightened to death on the spot.

Lin Shan naturally pretended to be scared and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, telling him that he would never provoke others unless they took the initiative to provoke him.
Next.

When the Black Skull Demon Lord learned that Lin Shan had drunk the ten thousand year old spiritual milk, he was not surprised at his breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage.

Once a spiritual item like the Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk is used, the foundation of one's energy will be improved by more than just a little bit. In addition, this kid had previously looted the three-colored Ganoderma lucidum from the Dai family, so it would be a problem if he couldn't make a breakthrough.

But soon, it discovered another strange thing.

"Oh, that's not right. Where did you get this magic weapon-level summoning flag? Where is the high-level magic weapon that I refined for you in the East China Sea?"

Lin Shan lied without hesitation, without blushing.

"Oh, the rod you refined for me, I gave it away."

"Give it to someone? To whom?"

The Black Skull Demon Lord instinctively felt that something was wrong and wanted to get to the bottom of it.

Lin Shan didn't care at all. He spoke vaguely and began to secretly change the subject.

"He's just a friend. I think he's very talented, so I plan to invest in him. Well, as you know, I've also had benefactors invest in me along the way, so I plan to give back to society and do more good deeds."

"What?"

The Black Skull Demon Lord was so angry that he jumped up and down. The facts were right in front of him, but he hated the other party for wasting money and letting the rich money go to outsiders?
"You have a new summoning magic weapon, so it's understandable that you look down on the old one, but the problem is that if you don't want it, you can give it to me!"

"I have just completed the collection of my skeleton army. All I need is a summoning flag, and my army will be ready soon!"

"I was counting on you to eliminate this flag, but you gave it away?!"

Lin Shan's heart shuddered. He didn't expect that this skeleton not only coveted his innate spiritual treasure, but also kept staring at his summoning flag?

Right!

With its means, even if it is just a high-level magic weapon summoning flag, as long as it can summon a vast army of skeletons and rely on quantitative change to transform into qualitative change, it is not surprising to form a Jindan stage skeleton!

After all, it is an expert in legion flow!
"Ahem. Well, if there's any news about a treasure like the Teleportation Stone in the future, I'll definitely keep an eye out for you!"

The Black Skull Demon Lord twisted his mouth and was fuming with anger.

In order to get rid of the topic as soon as possible and divert the Black Skull Demon Lord's attention, Lin Shan simply took out a dagger and threw it at it.

"It's okay. This time when I went out, I found a treasure that suits you very well. Take a look!"

"WTF?"

The Black Skull Demon Lord took the dagger, looked at it over and over, and examined it for a long time with the eyes of a weapon refining master. He found that he had never seen this refining method before!

"This is called the Crippled Witch Dagger. It is a witch treasure. After it is refined, it can injure the enemy by 800 and injure itself by 1,000. It can be used to weaken the opponent's strength by self-injury when fighting with him."

Seeing that it didn't understand, Lin Shan brought out the introduction of the enhancement panel and explained it to it. "Witch tribe magic weapon! How could you get this thing?"

The Black Skull Demon Lord was a little surprised. No wonder he couldn't figure it out. It turned out that the weapon refining system did not belong to the modern cultivation world.

just
"How do you know so clearly?"

Lin Shan shrugged and told it that he had stolen it from the barbarians of Xiaoyizhou, and that its function was also to search souls and ask questions of others.

The Black Skeleton Demon Lord nodded, holding the dagger and gesturing at his own skeleton, and was very satisfied with the function of this wizard's weapon.

Self harm?

The thing the Skeleton Tribe fears least is self-harm!

Have you heard of bone hyperplasia? In other people's eyes, it is a disease and needs to be treated.

For me, it's a natural talent!
Seeing that it accepted his gift, Lin Shan finally stopped asking questions and could explain his current needs.

"We are now in the ruins of the outer demon. There is a very powerful demon beast inside. It has occupied the outer demon's treasure. I see that it is quite powerful and want to use it for my own benefit, so I specially ask you to help me."

The Black Skull Demon Lord had no choice but to accept the favor.

This is Lin Shan's way of dealing with people. Although the two are bound by a golden contract, it is not impossible to force it to work for him, but working willingly and being forced are two completely different attitudes.

When I'm not around, I still need this guy to help me guard my foundation and stay in charge of the base camp, so I can't push him too hard and I have to give him some benefits.

Moreover, as your helper, the increase of its strength is equivalent to the increase of your own strength. Improving it is equivalent to improving yourself in disguise, so there is no need to suppress it too harshly. Just be careful not to be backlashed.

This skeleton is still a long way from recovering to the Nascent Soul stage, so there is no need to worry now.

The Black Skull Demon Lord was outside the military base with him, observing the thunder beast in the switch room from afar. He listened to him describing the details of the battle just now, and seemed to remember something.

"If I remember correctly, there seems to be a kind of monster called Thunder Otter that likes to absorb lightning and is lazy and gluttonous by nature."

"If there is no outside disturbance, they can stay in a place where thunder and lightning are raging, and stay there until the end of eternity, until the end of their lifespan."

"According to records, this beast is hermaphroditic, and has only one descendant. It specializes in lightning and thunder, and has no other skills. It has its own bloodline magical powers and unique inherited memories. It is an extremely rare thunder beast, at least I have never seen one before."

"From its appearance and what you said, it seems that it has been settled here for a long time and refuses to move."

"That Yuanying stage animal bone should have been left behind by the previous generation."

To be honest, they had no idea how this guy sneaked into the military base without going through the gate. They could only attribute it to the fact that there were many wires buried in the base, so Lei Otter used the Thunder Escape Technique to sneak in along the wires.
Although Lin Shan felt that it was a bit absurd to use the Lightning Escape Technique to escape electric wires, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be possible.
But this is not important at the moment. What is important is how to capture him alive.

The Black Skull Demon Lord thought about it, observed the terrain around him, and finalized the plan with Lin Shan on the spot.

First, we need to set up a trap.

The strength must be enough to withstand the attack of the Thunder Otter and prevent it from being defeated and forcing its way out.

This guy has both bloodline abilities and Yuanying period beast bones, so ordinary master-level formations may not be able to trap him!

Fortunately, after negotiations, the Black Skull Demon Lord set up the formation, using the Lingbao Xuxing Plate as the formation plate, and Xiaoxin assisted in the dispatch, which was enough to surround the ruins into an iron wall.

The next step is to screen out various killing formations, illusion formations, maze formations, concealment formations, amplification formations, weakening formations, isolation formations, etc.

The most important thing is to destroy the beast's thunder escape technique, otherwise it will be difficult to catch it even in the formation.

The old monster, the Black Skull Demon Lord, is worthy of being a big boss in the Nascent Soul stage. He has all kinds of secret skills. He immediately used his equipment refining techniques to refine sixteen small insulating cups on the spot. He inserted them upside down around the ruins to interfere with the flow of spiritual energy from the landmines.

Thunder itself is the Zhen Gua, which belongs to the wood element by nature. To be on the safe side, the Black Skull Demon Lord refined a bunch of copper cymbals to disrupt the wood spiritual energy among the five elements.

If Lei Otter dared to use the Thunder Escape Technique at that time, he would definitely be disturbed and lose his direction, bumping into walls everywhere, and he wouldn't even know where he would appear the next moment.

After the two of them had agreed, they immediately began to make arrangements.

They hid their bodies from each other, restrained their breath, buried materials everywhere in the ruins square, secretly installed various objects, and maintained a safe distance of one mile.

Lei Otter thought that Lin Shan had been chased away by it, so he returned to the switch room and continued to sleep soundly, unaware that the other party had found another old bastard to deal with him.

In total, seven large formations were set up, and the plan was completely completed.

Because too many materials were used, the Black Skull Demon Lord went back again to take away the treasures of the Xun Gu Sect in Tianfu Mountain, and borrowed a lot of materials from Master Zhan Kong. Finally, he dismantled part of the mountain protection formation and moved it here.
After all, a master-level formation must use spiritual materials of level four or above to set up the formation.

Different formations require different spiritual materials. You either have to borrow these things from formation masters of the same level, or dismantle the mountain protection formation. Otherwise, what else can you do in case of emergency?

Fortunately, it was finally done and we can proceed to the final capture stage.

Lin Shan and the Black Skull Demon Lord hid at the edge of the square, waiting patiently.

The three evil brothers were released again. Their mission was to act as bait, lure the thunder beast out of the distribution room, and trick it into the formation trap in the square. Then they would be done.

'Ruffian', '蠖', 'Ru' feel like crying but have no tears, why am I always the one who gets hurt?
They approached the distribution room for the third time trembling with fear and trepidation. This time they did not dare to go in, but attacked from outside the door because Lin Shan had also instructed them not to damage the distribution equipment inside.

The otter was sleeping soundly with the electric wire in its mouth, when it suddenly felt a strong wind coming. In response, it jumped up and turned around, only to find that there were those three annoying flies again. It was finally completely annoyed.

"Mute~~~"

There was a shrill scream, followed by a flash of lightning.

The three evil brothers were instantly tied together by a long chain of lightning, with black mist swirling and electric light raging. They were in so much pain that they began to scream.

"Idiot, run into the formation!"

With Lin Shan's voice echoing in their ears, the three of them finally came to their senses a little and turned away.

The thunder beast did not suspect any trick and chased after it relentlessly all the way.

When the black mist around the three evil spirits became so thin that it was almost transparent, they were finally lured into the formation.

"Swish, swish, swish, swish!"

Seven formations were activated at the same time, flashing and overlapping in various colors, covering all directions and blocking the front and retreat of the Thunder Otter.

A man and a skeleton then appeared and walked out side by side.

The three evil spirit brothers floated back weakly and got into the spirit beast bag without saying a word. This time they were really seriously injured like never before, and it would probably take them a long time to recover.

The Black Skull Demon Lord glanced at the three with a little surprise, then immediately forgot about them and focused on dealing with the thunder beast in front of him.

He pulled out the 'Fiery Black Gold Flag' that was stuck on his back. This was his natal soul treasure that he had personally refined and nurtured for a long time. It was shown for the first time today.
