Chapter 804 Embroidered Pillow, Hostage Exchange

The mountains and rivers are above, the sun and the moon are always bright.

The candle dragon hides at the bottom of the sea, and the abyss is dark and embers.

Zhong Shenxiu holds the Si Wu Fang Ding on his head, with white light floating all over his body. He looks like an eagle and walks like a dragon and a tiger, full of confidence!

"Second brother, I don't really want to kill my brothers, you forced me to do this!"

"Now you have to think carefully. Either hand over Mu Yan and apologize to me. Oh, and also return the cave treasure to me!"

"Otherwise, don't blame my third brother for committing treason or even accidentally killing his brother, which would be a tragedy that will be remembered for all eternity."

Lin Shan stood in the pavilion, his feet on the cave, with a blank expression on his face.

Mu Yan stood behind him with his back bent, looking nervous and uneasy.

"Third brother, the last sentence is probably what you really think, right?"

"Back then in the forbidden area of ​​the cliff, you staged a farce of killing your brother. How come you haven't had enough?"

“At that time.”

"shut up!!!"

Zhong Shenxiu interrupted him loudly, fearing that the details would be disclosed and would affect his reputation if heard by outsiders.

"Brother, I have no intention of being your enemy, but you always ruin my plans!"

"The Flame Demon has been wreaking havoc in northwestern Shandong for decades and has become the most wanted person in the cultivation world. I have been ordered to eradicate the demon, and this is only natural!"

"Comparing brotherhood to right and wrong, I, Zhong, will choose justice over family ties!"

Lin Shan shook his head and smiled, not continuing to expose his third brother.

He signaled to Mu Yan behind him to rest assured that with him here, the opponent could not hurt him. He said it righteously, but in the end, he still had to show his true colors with his own hands.

He sat down quietly, closed his eyes, and the soul power in his sea of ​​consciousness surged. Together with his spiritual consciousness, he rushed into the Lingbao Cave below, forcibly squeezing and crushing the mark of the original owner, and began to refine it against the clock.

In the outside world, Zhong Shenxiu has already conquered the world with his supernatural powers!
The heavy mountains fell down, bringing with them terrifying pressure, as if the sky was collapsing, gripping people's hearts, and the breath of despair spread, and everyone stared with bated breath.

However, at the moment of falling.

A wind wall engraved with symbols appeared above the pavilion. It was a thin layer, but it carried an indescribable sense of heaviness, firmly holding the virtual shadow of the mountain in the sky, preventing it from sinking an inch!
"uh-huh!"

Zhong Shenxiu breathed out through his nostrils, with his internal energy at the top of his head. The large cauldron of Dharma image on his head rotated faster and faster, giving blessings, and he pressed down hard with both hands!
However, the phantom of the magical mountain in front was still steady and motionless, as if it had already landed!
Lin Shan sat quietly under the pavilion without even opening his eyes. Mu Yan, who was standing behind him, peeked up at the sky with inexplicable surprise.

However, what followed was the pair of sun and moon, filled with red and white beams of light, and then two circles could be seen expanding with a 'bang', one as hot as fire, the other as cold as ice, cutting in at a 45-degree angle from below, too far to be seen by the naked eye.

"Bang! Bang!"

There were two more noises, which startled everyone! There were two more wind walls outside the pavilion, like sunshades, blocking them out again.

The Lingbao Cave below had been submerged by the sea, and the galaxy summoned by the Tianhe Water Bucket had also been swallowed by the abyss. The sea water spread unnoticed and flooded the base of the Lanfeng Pavilion. The two people in the light curtain were like a lonely boat.

Suddenly a wave came over from below!

A huge dragon head emerged from the water, with powerful black scales, a ferocious mouth wide open, eyes flashing with evil, and long flat tentacles dripping with water, and it dived down!
But suddenly a white mist dissipated from Lan Feng Pavilion and enveloped it. The creature from the abyss suddenly stopped in mid-air, motionless, like a sculpture.

Little did it know that the dragon was dragged into an illusion and thought it was continuing to swim in the ocean!
Zhong Shenxiu pressed hard with both hands, but found that the dragon did not move at all. It was controlled and could not move at all. His own Dharma image also turned with great difficulty, as if it was stuck.

The world froze in an instant.

In the wind and rain, above the waves, the pavilion seems to be the only one in the world, eternal and indestructible.

The two people inside were unharmed, and the scene outside was like an illusion in the water, real and unreal, making the onlookers feel extremely unreal.

"how can that be"

Zhong Shenxiu's hands were shaking inside his sleeves, and he tried his best to hide them so that no one else could see.

But the shock in his heart had reached its peak, causing him to suddenly have even more absurd guesses.

This is definitely not a new spiritual treasure that has just come out of the oven, but a spiritual treasure that has been nurtured for thousands of years and is truly complete!
Is it reasonable that the magical powers that isolate him and the spells that target him cannot even be broken by his own magical powers?

This is unreasonable!

As for the fact that magical powers and spells are useless, then replacing them with magic weapons will be even more useless!

Just now, a big hole was smashed in his life-saving magic weapon. Before he had time to feel the pain, his chest was now throbbing with pain.

With this magical treasure, who among his peers can break his defense?
Lin Shan does nothing but sits there quietly, yet he can make his opponent feel desperate.

Not only did he think so, but the two people who were hiding in the distance and watching secretly thought so too.

The crooked-necked middle-aged man and the little boy, two Nascent Soul cultivators, naturally could not just leave, so they had already quietly turned back and hid, secretly observing the battle.

Their original intention was naturally to take a peek. Driven by curiosity, they wanted to see the methods of people of the same level, especially the two young geniuses.

Secondly, if there is some bargain that can be picked up where both sides suffer losses, if the benefits are big enough, it is not impossible to do it.

But after really watching it, they realized that no matter which one of these two people it was, they couldn't deal with either of them!

When Zhong Shenxiu's Dharma image appeared and his supernatural powers were bestowed upon them, they were unable to withstand a single move!
Lin Shan over there couldn't even break through the defense!

They have sharp eyes and can see the situation clearly, but most outsiders don't understand and think that the two sides are still in a stalemate and are evenly matched.

Zhong Shenxiu's forehead was covered with sweat, and he was in a difficult situation.

He made such a big show this time with such a huge momentum, but in the end he didn't even get a scratch on the other party. If this were to be made public, people would probably laugh at him.

But it is futile to continue, and if you hold on any longer, your true energy will eventually be exhausted.

The atmosphere was somewhat heavy as the two sides continued to waste time.

Time passes by tick by tick.

Zhong Shenxiu felt like his days were passing by like years, and he felt increasingly uncomfortable. His body was slightly weak. This type of magical power consumed too much energy, and he had to maintain his Dharma image all the time, which was definitely much more exhausting than Lin Shan's ability to just activate his own spiritual treasure.

The whispers from outside also came with the wind.

"Hey, it's been a few incense sticks, why are the two of them still sitting there like this, not moving at all?"

"Who knows, Master Shenxiu seems to be at a loss for ideas?"

"Impossible, they are clearly evenly matched!"

"Look at Master Xun Gu, he is sitting on the Diaoyutai. He doesn't look like he is being suppressed. He looks like he is in control."

"If he can easily resist in this situation, if he attacks, won't it be earth-shattering?"

"Tell me, is there a possibility that Master Shenxiu is actually just a figurehead and not as powerful as he appears to be?"

There are many different opinions. Some people think that the two are still in confrontation, but so much time has passed that many people can't help but begin to doubt Zhong Shenxiu's strength.

After all, since the Yunmengze, Zhong Shenxiu seemed to have been defeated all the time. This young Nascent Soul boy should have been able to show off his skills and wreak havoc, but why does it seem like all thunder and no rain, as if he was just bluffing?

The magical power just now looked so intimidating, but in the end, I couldn’t even touch the edge of the person’s clothes. What’s the big difference between people of the same level?
Some people hold different opinions. As the sign of Bailu Academy, it doesn't look fake at all. Is it possible that the spiritual treasure of Xun Gu Sect Master is too powerful? !
Naturally, they all turned their attention to the pavilion in the center of the magical power.

Lin Shan happened to open his eyes at this moment. He tried it briefly and found that the newly strengthened innate spiritual treasure was indeed powerful. Even the magical power blessed by Zhong Shenxiu's Dharma image could not break it.

You know, in the introduction of the strengthening panel, Lan Fengting is just a multi-functional auxiliary spiritual treasure, but it has such defensive capabilities.

If it is a real defensive magic treasure, how powerful would it be?

He looked up at Zhong Shenxiu opposite him and found that his third brother's eyes were filled with bloodshot at this moment. It was a collection of contradictions, including complexity, envy, jealousy, resentment, and various emotions.

He thought that after he had achieved great success in his cultivation and came out of seclusion, he would sweep across the Confucian world and become famous all over the world. However, he was defeated by his second brother Lingbao at the first level!

"Third brother, have you had enough of the trouble?"

He leisurely glanced at the abyss dragon head in front of him. It had been standing blankly on the sea. It had not been able to break free from the illusion for such a long time, and it was like a target at the mercy of others.

This should be the latest feature of Lanfengting: Illusion Storm.

In the original introduction, he had thought it was just a surprising side path, but now it seems that it is almost comparable to the sect's magical power!

The wind walls on all sides are as solid as rocks and as strong as iron!

"Brother, hiding in a turtle shell and relying on a defensive magic treasure is nothing. If you really have the guts, come out and fight me for real to see whose true essence magic is more powerful! Do you dare?"

Zhong Shenxiu felt that he was exhausted and began to provoke him with words.

Who would have thought that Lin Shan would fall for it!

"Okay, Third Brother, since you think it's unfair, let me teach you a lesson!"

"I am not bullying you on purpose. Right now, I am devoting most of my energy to refining the Lingbao Cave Heaven, so I can only sit and fight with you."

"To be honest, as an elder brother, it is not fair to bully the younger one."

These words, coupled with his sighing expression, were like a brother who was disappointed with his younger brother and was teaching his naughty and rebellious younger brother a lesson, which instantly resonated with many bystanders.

Especially since everyone just remembered it.

The reason why Sect Leader Xun Gu didn't move at all just now was because he had devoted most of his energy to cleaning up Lingbao Cave Heaven. Even so, Zhong Shenxiu was helpless.

How terrifying would it be if all its strength were unleashed?
Zhong Shenxiu almost vomited blood after hearing this. Doesn't this mean that if Lin Shan attacks him next time, if he can win, it means he is too weak. If he fails, it is because he only used half of his strength!

In fact, I still won!

Good man, you eat everything, isn't your eating style too ugly?
"No need to pretend, show me your true strength! I am a genius in the immortal way, am I not worthy of your full effort???"

Lin Shan chuckled and turned to look at Mu Yan behind him.

"I'd like to make a bet with you, would you dare?"

Mu Yan smiled brightly and bowed with his fists clasped.

"Master, you saved my life, so I naturally owe you my life. You can take it at will. Why not?"

"it is good!"

Lin Shan increasingly admired this boy's character. He was frank and sincere, grateful, and most importantly, generous and magnanimous. He was never pretentious. He was a real man!
She secretly told him not to worry and that she would not joke about his life.

Then he made a bet with Zhong Shenxiu:

"Third brother, it's my turn to attack next. If you can stand still without getting hurt, Mu Yan will confess his crime and surrender himself. What do you think?"

"can!"

Zhong Shenxiu agreed without thinking twice. After all, Lin Shan had survived his attack without any injuries, so there was nothing wrong with the situation being reversed.

Moreover, he was extremely conceited about himself, thinking that Lin Shan was just a casual cultivator who could only show off his abilities by relying on his defensive magic treasures. If they really fought, he would definitely be far inferior to himself.

"What do you want me to bet with you? Tell me!"

Lin Shan talks nonsense:
"I want those two magical powers you just used."

"impossible!"

Zhong Shenxiu directly rejected it and interrupted him without thinking.

"This is a secret that our sect has never passed down. I cannot reveal it to you no matter what. Don't even think about it!"

"Haha, I was just joking, just take it as a joke~"

Lin Shan just smiled and passed it off. He had not originally intended for the other party to agree, so he settled for the next best option.

"Then I remember you have a spiritual talisman in your hand - the Wenqiong Taibao talisman. Do you dare to take it out and gamble?"

"Uh this."

No matter how confident Zhong Shenxiu was in himself, he still hesitated when it came to this matter.

Because the Wen Qiong Taibao Talisman is also one of his trump cards. When he was fighting for the Ten Thousand Years Spiritual Milk in the Forbidden Land of the Cliff, he summoned the Ten Kings of Hell for help. This is no less powerful than the Young Master Jiuyou using the spiritual treasure Youxingmen. This is a rare treasure!
"Brother, this thing is too precious. It is totally not worth the life of the Flame Demon. Why don't you try another one?"

He looked embarrassed and actually got scared at the critical moment!

Obviously, when it comes to major issues, he has a scale in his heart. The psychic talisman is his life-saving trump card. Comparing the two, even if he loses face, it is not unacceptable.

Lin Shan did not force it, knowing that this was also the bottom line of principle and could not be generalized.

Finally, he narrowed his eyes, hinting at something.

"Well, let's put it this way. I heard that my third brother captured a little demon girl from the human-faced fox tribe a while ago. She is as beautiful as a flower, cute and lovely. She is a rare and top-quality product. I wonder if you would like to give her up?"

"Hmm? Where did you hear that???"

Zhong Shenxiu was suddenly shocked, as if his underwear had been exposed, and he was a little panicked.

"Don't worry about where I heard it from, just tell me whether to gamble or not!"

While Lin Shan was bargaining nonchalantly, he nodded secretly to Hu Buju below without leaving a trace, obviously he had a plan in mind.

Zhong Shenxiu hesitated and was very embarrassed.

"Second brother, I don't know where you heard this from, but you really can't gamble on this. Try another one."

"Humph!"

Lin Shan's face darkened and changed expression on the spot.

"You can't do it once or twice, but you can't do it again. Third brother, are you kidding me? You don't want to bet on this or that. Don't you have the confidence to withstand any of my moves? Then just admit defeat right now and get out of here. Why are you nagging me here?"

But unexpectedly, Zhong Shenxiu looked embarrassed and said something that almost made him drop his jaw!

"Well, how about we just bet on the psychic talisman? I really can't give it to you, this little witch."
