On the Avenue.

Chapter 593 The Only Chance
The descriptions of Longhuang and Wuxie are very much like phenomena caused by the realm of ghosts and gods.

In Xiniu New Continent, this kind of thing is very common. Whenever a demon is born, or a disaster or calamity occurs, an evil change will occur, covering a territory of hundreds, thousands or tens of thousands of miles, assimilating all life within it and changing the way of heaven and earth.

The source of these phenomena is the invasion of Yuan insects and the pollution of Tianzun's Yuanshen, which caused Xiniu New Island to almost become a place where humans cannot survive.

The evil spirit that was born as a result also gave rise to a unique profession of cultivators in Xiniu Xinzhou, the talisman master.

Chen Shi didn't expect that he would encounter similar incidents in the earthly immortal world!

He died and came back to life, and it can be said that he had spent the first half of his life struggling with this phenomenon, which was extremely familiar to him.

This kind of thing should be rare in the world of earthly immortals, so I don’t know how to deal with it.

"The evil changes in Xiniuzhou were caused by the pollution of the Yuanworm and Tianzun's Yuanshen. The Yuanworm is a treasure found in the dark sea, and Tianzun is a dual cultivation of immortals and demons who practiced the Great Wilderness Mingdao Collection."

Chen Shi's eyes flickered, and he thought, "Could the clay Buddha in Feng'an County this time be an incident caused by the owner of the Great Wilderness Mingdao Collection?"

However, listening to Long Huang's description, what happened in Feng'an County was different from the realm of ghosts and gods, making him unsure whether this was the realm of ghosts and gods.

There is a Demon Corridor in the realm of ghosts and gods. Anyone who escapes to the edge will return to the middle, repeating over and over again. However, people in Feng'an County can escape.

The Thunder Profound Province still needs to set up a ban to prevent the people inside from escaping and causing pollution to a larger area of ​​the avenue. Obviously, there is no Demon Corridor here.

Moreover, the power of the ghost and god realm is not that strong. What happened in Feng'an County can even affect immortals and gods!

"It has reached the level of a meta-worm."

Chen Shi thought to himself, "Pollution at the level of Yuanworms can destroy the Shang Dynasty in an instant. Although Feng'an County is not that terrifying, it is also very serious. The realm of ghosts and gods usually has a source. Could it be that the clay Buddha is the source of this evil change?"

Long Huang said: "This place is extremely dangerous. We have to use the Exorcism Banner from the Exorcism Institute to avoid being affected. The Exorcism Banner can suppress the pollution of the Great Dao. However, the Great Dao here is too polluted, causing the Banner to be invaded by the outsiders, and it can't hold out for long."

He ordered someone to bring the Exorcist Banner and said, "This Exorcist Banner can still protect you from entering Feng'an County, but it can only last for twelve hours. After twelve hours, if you fail to resolve the pollution on the avenue, you will also turn into clay figures."

He paused and said, "We gods are originally wood carvings and clay sculptures, and we can survive by relying on incense and offerings. You have become clay figures, which will be scattered by the wind, lumped together by water, hardened by the sun, and fossilized over time. You must be careful and don't lose your life."

Zhang Xian took the exorcism banner. Everyone gathered in front of it and looked at it carefully. They saw that this banner was not a traditional triangular banner, but a large banner. A brocade banner of almost the same length was supported by a dragon blood pole about 17 or 18 feet long.

The long banner was embroidered with Taoist patterns in gold thread, but they were more Shinto patterns than immortal patterns. In the Beidou Exorcism Court, there were mostly gods, so the Shinto patterns were used to refine magic weapons.

No one in the Fire Camp could understand the Shinto pattern. Even Chen Shi stared at the Exorcism Banner for a while and was still confused.

He still had a few Furo Village elixirs in his hand, and was considering whether to take one to study the Taoist patterns on the Exorcism Banner.

Zhang Xian had already raised the Exorcist Banner and said in a deep voice, "Brothers from the Fire Camp, let's go to Feng'an! Follow me!"

The people from the Huozi Camp followed him and headed towards Feng'an County.

Long Huang, Wu Xie and others watched them go deeper into Feng'an County, frowning.

Long Huang said: "The Heavenly Court sent them here to die, right? One of them must have offended a noble in the Heavenly Court!"

Wu Xie laughed and said, "You've already turned into a clay figure, why are you still worrying about this?"

Long Huang said with a smile: "I am a dragon god, so I will just build another golden body. It's nothing more than asking for more incense."

At this moment, he suddenly looked blankly behind Wuxie. Wuxie turned back hurriedly and was also stunned. He saw that Ge Tianshi, the governor of Lei Ting Xuan Province, had come out of retreat without him, riding on auspicious clouds and coming towards this side with immortal air.

Master Ge Tianshi is wearing a feather fan and a blue scarf, and he has an ethereal aura. It is unknown how deep his cultivation is. Behind him are some beautiful fairies, all of whom have graceful figures.

Beside Ge Tianshi, there was a divine man in golden armor, holding an exquisite golden pagoda in his hand, six feet tall, with an imposing bearing. The strange thing was that no matter how far away one looked at this divine man, he was always six feet tall!

"Li Tianwang of the Heavenly Palace!"

They were all stunned. "Why is he here? And Master Ge, wasn't he in seclusion? When did he come out?"

Ge Tianshi and Li Tianwang were talking and laughing as they stood on the clouds, and it was obvious that they were familiar with each other.

One of them is an immortal, and the other is a god, but they have a deep friendship and are not affected by the current conflict between immortals and gods.

"Xianweng, you are so comfortable!"

Li Tianwang laughed and said, "Now that your Thunder Profound Province has caused such a big commotion, you choose to stay in seclusion. Don't you think the situation is not big enough?"

Master Ge Tianshi smiled and said, "I am a lowly person with little influence. I am a guardian under the Thunder Department. I am surrounded by gods. What power do I have? Even if I want to deal with this matter, I have no soldiers or generals."

Li Tianwang knew that what he said was true. In recent years, the conflict between immortals and gods has become more and more serious. Gods are also very wary of immortals and are not as close as before.

Although Master Ge Tianshi is in charge of the Thunder Province, he has been sidelined and deprived of real power over the years.

"Besides, this matter is quite strange."

Ge Tianshi lowered his voice and said, "I suspect that the pollution of the Great Dao this time is aimed at Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva. They want to take advantage of the time when Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva descends to the golden body to pollute him. He was attacked in my Thunder Department and polluted into an evil creature. The Western Heaven will create a rift with my Heavenly Court." Li Tianwang hesitated and said, "Do you mean that someone secretly attacked?"

Master Ge smiled and said, "I didn't say that."

Li Tianwang said: "This person must be an immortal. It is a good method to sow discord between the Heavenly Court and the Western Heaven. Are you going to sit back and do nothing?"

Master Ge sighed and said, "I am not valued in the Thunder Department. Do you still want me to cut off my immortal path?"

Li Tianwang fell silent.

Master Ge changed the subject and said with a smile, "You never come to the temple for no reason. You sent a mere battalion of heavenly soldiers to solve the pollution of the avenue. Even I suspect that there are enemies of yours in the battalion. But since you came here in person, I am not so sure."

Li Tianwang said: "There is a man named Chen Shi in the Fire Camp. His origin is a bit strange. He came from the Dark Sea and became an immortal in the Heavenly Palace after ascending. He refined an abnormal point of the Great Dao in Daoxu."

"What?" Master Ge said in a lost voice.

Li Tianwang said: "He did refine an abnormal point of the Great Dao. I don't know what method he used, but this is what I saw with my own eyes. I suspect he is a great demon, or something else in the dark sea."

Master Ge understood what he meant: "So you want to use the clay Buddha incident to check his background."

Li Tianwang nodded gently: "The Dark Sea is too terrifying. I am worried that he is a monster in the Dark Sea."

Master Ge looked towards Feng'an County, searching for the movements of Chen Shi and the others, and murmured, "But the absurdity of the Great Dao of Refining is too outrageous. Even the monsters in the Dark Sea can't do it, right?"

He found Chen Shi and the others and said, "In order to test Chen Shi, you didn't hesitate to let 1,200 people from the Fire Camp die with him. You are so cruel and ruthless. Could it be that there is something wrong with these 1,200 people?"

Li Tianwang's eyes also fell on Chen Shi: "They are the rebels among the immortals. They released the big demon, attacked the heaven, and destroyed the heavenly magic weapon Tianji Ce. They deserve death. This trip is full of dangers. No matter who Chen Shi is, he will reveal his true identity involuntarily!"

Chen Shi followed the people from the Fire Camp and went deeper into Feng'an County, continuing to slowly refine the Yin-Yang sword energy in the Purple Sky Gourd.

Two sword energies had already taken shape under his refining, like two blunt hammers that collided with each other in the gourd, sharpening each other and gradually colliding to develop sharp edges.

Chen Shi's mind was focused on the two sword energies. He controlled the sword energies to perform the moves of the Hunyuan Sword Sutra and collide them with each other. By doing so, the sword energies would become sharper and sharper, and he would be able to use them with ease when he used them.

Under his ritual, the two sword energies were incredibly powerful, but fortunately they were in the Zi Tian gourd, which contained almost a world, and the power of the sword energy did not leak out at all.

"Have you noticed that our magic power is gradually becoming dull?" someone suddenly exclaimed.

As soon as this statement was made, many people immediately agreed with it.

"I noticed that too!"

"My immortal essence seems to have turned into mud! There's something wrong with this exorcism banner. It can protect our bodies but not our magic power!"

"My Dao Law is also becoming dull!"

"Me too!"

They started shouting, somewhat panicked.

Zhang Xian said: "If you can't hold on, you can hide in your own realm first. If you can hold on, keep moving forward!"

Immediately, someone could not bear the pressure and activated his own Dao realm, but a Dao realm of thousands of miles appeared behind his head, and then rose up and walked into the Dao realm.

The immortal had just entered his own realm when suddenly his body froze. Mud kept gushing out of his eyes, ears, mouth and nose. He stood there, not daring to move.

At this time, it started to rain heavily in his realm of Taoism, and the rain fell from the sky and hit him.

His body gradually dissolved in the rain, turned into flowing mud and water, and soon his head disappeared!
Below, the immortals from the Fire Camp stared at this scene in a daze, all feeling a chill down their spines.

"Why doesn't hiding in the realm of Tao work?" someone asked in a hoarse voice.

Zhong Lin said in a deep voice: "Because we have been polluted. We have been polluted since the moment we set foot in Feng'an County. We are under the protection of the Exorcism Banner, so we have not turned into clay figures. But as long as we leave the protection of the Exorcism Banner, we will become like this."

Everyone shuddered.

Are they all contaminated?
Xiao Dulu asked, "You mean, if we can't solve the source of the clay Buddha incident in one day, we will still become clay figures even if we leave Feng'an County?"

Zhonglin said: "We can't leave Feng'an County."

Everyone was puzzled, Bai Fangfang asked in confusion: "Why?"

Zhong Lin looked up at the sky, where there was a bright mirror like the blazing sun. He said, "We are already the source of pollution. The Thunder Department will not allow us to pollute the avenue. This Pure Yang Divine Mirror will burn us to death when we try to leave Feng'an County. No one will be spared!"

Everyone's heart sank.

Only by solving the source of the clay figures can there be a chance of survival!
