Start from a baby to become a Taoist

Chapter 361 Gloomy
"Let me ask you a question, Second Brother. Didn't you listen carefully to what the First Brother said just now?"

At this time, the voice of the junior sister suddenly sounded.

Raised a soul-searching question.

"This is the Chaos Ancient War Puppet. It possesses all the great ways and origins of the great masters during their lifetime. Control over the physical body is only the most basic requirement."

"Even if we encountered a war puppet like this during the trial, we wouldn't necessarily be able to successfully clear it, let alone this newcomer who is just a baby under two years old?"

The powerful ones, even in ancient times, were the strongest ones at the top. They were rare in number and revered by countless people. Among them, the ancient great master [Innate Saint Holy Body] was one of them, and he was the strongest one.

Such an existence has already mastered the Dao and the Origin to the point of perfection. Even if his cultivation level is lowered, the power unleashed by the same move by the powerful one is countless times stronger than that of someone with the same cultivation level!
Such an existence is far beyond the reach of a baby under two years old!
When the second senior brother heard what the younger junior sister said, he was stunned at first, and then he burst out laughing.

"I've completely forgotten this. The Almighty is an existence that has absolute understanding of the Great Dao and the Origin. The shadow of the divine halberd just now was nothing more than the control of power!"

The second brother was also a little helpless at this time.

Xu Ran's performance was so outstanding that he thought that this was all the combat power of the Ancient War Puppet. The main reason was that Xu Ran had experienced too many reversals before, so when he saw the shadow of the divine spear shattered, he thought it was over.

After adjusting his mindset, the second brother looked into the mirror again.

"I wonder what great ways and origins these nine powerful beings who were transformed into ancient war puppets have mastered?"

"I wonder if this new guy can force it out so we can watch!"

The second brother’s words expressed the thoughts of all the souls.

They are not powerful yet at the moment. If they can observe it, even if the powerful person is already dead, it will be of great benefit to them in comprehending the great Dao and the origin!
"Don't even think about this!"

The eldest brother's cold words instantly extinguished their inner thoughts.

“Although powerful beings are extremely rare, the powerful beings who can be refined into ancient war puppets were not very powerful in their lifetime.”

"If you want to preserve its body intact, you need to take it by surprise and kill it at the right time!"

"This shows a complete crushing defeat!"

"Being completely crushed by other powerful beings shows that their avenues and origins are not that strong. Otherwise, they would have been able to resist, and their avenues and origins would not have been preserved intact!"

After saying that, the eldest brother stood up and looked around with his eyes filled with icy mist. The air in the entire arena seemed to have turned cold.

"You were all chosen by the Nine-Story Tower, which is enough to show that you have great potential. It is not impossible for you to become a powerful person on your own!"

"But if you observe the great principles and origins of these nine ancient war puppets, it will not benefit you at all!"

Immediately, he looked at the second senior brother and the younger junior sister.

"Especially you two, one with a black flame body and the other with a soul body. You have your own paths and origins to follow. There's no need to watch others!"

Although the eldest brother's tone was cold, it was a great encouragement to the other souls.

The nine ancient war puppets showed no expression when they saw the phantoms of the divine spears condensed from their black flesh and blood being easily shattered by fists, as if they were born that way.

Before Xu Ran could rest for too long, the nine ancient war puppets took another step forward, disappeared from the spot, and a gust of wind rose at the same time.

When Xu Ran appeared in sight again, he was surrounded by nine ancient war puppets.

"Are you planning to gang up on me?"

When Xu Ran saw this scene, he was not nervous at all, but instead looked eager to try.

Just now when facing the phantom of the divine spear, I knew that these nine ancient war puppets had a 100% control over their power, and their control was extremely high.

When he smashed the phantom of the divine spear, he found that his control over his own body had actually increased by one point.

I don’t know if it was because he shattered the phantom of the divine spear or because he broke through during the battle.

No matter what, as long as he continues to fight with these nine ancient war puppets, even if his weakness in controlling his strength cannot be completely compensated, it will greatly improve his control over his strength.

Xu Ran's thoughts were racing, and at the same time, the nine ancient war puppets that surrounded him also made a move.

He raised his hand, which was no longer flesh and blood, and a black mist rose up. It was the dark energy belonging to the underworld, surrounding the fingertips.

Immediately, his hands danced rapidly, and imperceptible handprints appeared in the air.

As his palms continued to form seals, a black light suddenly rose from the black mist and spread out in all directions with the nine ancient war puppets as the center. After a while, Xu Ran was completely surrounded.

"Buzz!"

The actions of the nine ancient war puppets have not yet ended.

A burst of black light suddenly burst out from each ancient war puppet, and the patterns on their bodies kept wriggling with light. Gradually, a huge black underworld symbol appeared under their feet.

The moment these nine underworld characters appeared, waves of wailing sounds rose in the entire arena.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The sound continued to echo in the arena, like a whisper from hell, and the wailing seemed to be able to penetrate the human body and reach the depths of the soul.

The moment Xu Ran heard this voice, his thoughts paused for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses.

"This sound can affect the sea of ​​​​spirituality!"

When that voice just sounded, Xu Ran could vaguely feel that an invisible thing entered his mind and invaded the sea of ​​​​spiritual consciousness.

If it weren't for the fact that his sea of ​​spirit contained enough innate energy, his soul would probably be completely lost by the appearance of this voice.

When his mind became clear again, Xu Ran looked around at the ancient war puppets surrounding him, and also saw the black underworld characters appearing under their feet.

"Is this a formation?"

now.

In Xu Ran's eyes, although he could not understand the dark words that appeared under his feet, he could clearly feel them.

Among the nine underworld characters, there is an imperceptible black aura that connects the nine underworld characters together. Moreover, the space at this moment is blocked and cannot be broken through.

"Do we need to break the formation before we can get out?"

Xu Ran doesn't know much about formations.

However, he knew that all difficulties could be overcome with force.

What's more, his control over his body and strength has just increased again, and now is a good time to try out the results.

then.

Xu Ran closed his eyes, mobilized the spiritual energy in his body, and prepared to break through the formation with one blow.

Simultaneously.

Outside the arena.

The junior sister stared at the dark characters appearing in the mirror and frowned.

"These dark characters that appear will invisibly cause damage to the sea of ​​​​spirituality!"

The junior sister who specialized in spiritual power noticed something wrong at the first moment and looked at Xu Ran.

He didn't seem to be feeling unwell at all, as if nothing had happened, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"This newcomer's spiritual power isn't very strong, how could it be that there's no effect at all?"

After a moment, her eyes lit up and she said helplessly, "That's right, his spiritual sea is filled with innate energy. Even the dark energy can't penetrate his spiritual sea!"

Then, she looked at the eldest brother and asked.

"Big Brother, what kind of formation is this?"

Everyone present immediately discovered the formation that appeared under the feet of the Ancient War Puppet, but they had never seen it before, and there was no record of it even in ancient books.

When he thought about Mingyuan, he felt relieved and could only turn his attention to the eldest brother.

At this time, the eldest senior brother also squinted his eyes and carefully observed the formation under the feet of the ancient war puppet.

"This is... the Underworld Formation!"

Dark array?

The moment these two words appeared, all the souls were confused.

What kind of formation is this? I have never heard of it before.

Among the soul bodies present, there are many geniuses who specialize in formations. Even they have never heard of this formation, let alone seen it and know its function.

Without waiting for anyone to ask, the eldest brother started explaining.

"The Underworld Formation doesn't have much killing power. It only has one function: to trap the enemy and then assimilate the creatures within it!"

"Assimilate! Assimilate all creatures within the formation into Netherworld creatures. They can only survive within the Netherworld!"

Abyssal creatures?

There are living creatures in the abyss?
"From what I understand, the conditions for carving the Nether Array are extremely harsh, and the energy consumption is enormous. Generally speaking, it is impossible to use it!"

"But if they meet an extremely gifted genius in the outside world, the Nether Abyss creature will carve a Nether Formation and assimilate them into a Nether Abyss creature!"

"The talent of this newcomer has been noticed by the Nether Abyss, who want to transform him into a Nether Abyss creature!"

The eldest brother's words directly struck the hearts of all the souls.

They never thought that Mingyuan actually had such means!

At the same time, they also felt a sense of loss in their hearts.

They were chosen by the Nine-Story Tower, which meant that they were the most outstanding talents of that era. Even so, they were not chosen by the Nether Abyss during the trial.

Instead, this baby who was less than two years old was chosen by Mingyuan.

Although the Nether Abyss is not a good place, this is enough to show that Xu Ran's talent is stronger than anyone else here, so strong that the Nether Abyss has to pay a huge price to transform him into a Nether Abyss creature.

"But..." At this time, the second brother asked, "Big Brother, this is a trial in the nine-story tower, and whether it is the ancient bronze gate or the ancient war puppet, they are not real, they are just projections!"

"If the newcomers can't escape, will they also be assimilated?"

This is indeed a problem.

"Yes!" The eldest brother explained directly, "The power of the Nether Abyss is extremely mysterious. Even if it is just a projection, it has all the functions of the Nether Array!"

"As long as this newcomer doesn't escape in time, he will be assimilated into a creature of the Nether Abyss!"

After saying that, the eldest brother frowned, and it was obvious that he was a little overwhelmed by this sudden accident.

They could not enter the trial, and even if they could, they had no way to break the underworld formation. Everything depended on Xu Ran's ability.

Xu Ran was unaware of the discussions outside. He simply closed his eyes and mobilized all the spiritual energy and innate energy in his body.

"Ok?"

During this process, Xu Ran also felt something was wrong.

"There seems to be something extra in my body?"

Xu Ran, who had a relatively good control over his body, vaguely felt that there seemed to be something extra in his body.

"That thing seems to be related to the puppet that appeared?"

This aura is very familiar, it is the ancient war puppet that appeared.

"It seems that I have to break through as soon as possible!" Xu Ran made a decision.

He could feel that as time went by, there were more and more strange things in his body. He could even see through introspection that a trace of black substance appeared on his bones.

"Let's break through now!"

Xu Ran, who had already mobilized all his spiritual energy and innate energy, suddenly opened his eyes.

"call!"

In an instant, an invisible gust of wind roared out from his body, accompanied by bursts of shining golden light and endless spiritual energy surrounding his body.

The black mist that had already spread throughout the entire formation knew of Xu Ran's actions, and immediately gathered together, turning into a ball of solid black mist, attacking Xu Ran, trying to interrupt his gathering momentum.

"boom!"

As a dull sound rang out, the black fog attacking Xu Ran seemed to hit something and instantly dissipated in the air, turning into wisps of black mist that floated in the air.

"Use my strength to break the formation!"

When the black fog dissipated, a roar suddenly came from it, and then a golden fist appeared from the black fog, like a fast-falling golden meteor, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived at the edge of the underworld formation.

The nine ancient war puppets were frightened by this sudden scene.

The cloud of mist that had just attacked Xu Ran dissipated in the air, briefly obscuring their vision.

Xu Ran used the [Wind Control Technique] and in the brief time when their sight faded, he broke out at an extremely fast speed and arrived at the edge of the underworld formation.

"This is the center of the formation!"

After saying that, the fist shining with golden light suddenly smashed towards the edge.

In an instant, a dazzling golden light burst out, illuminating the entire arena, making it impossible to open one's eyes.

When you lose your vision.

"Crack!"

All I heard was a crisp sound of breaking.

"boom!"

Then, there was another roar, accompanied by a violent gust of wind, whistling in every corner of the arena. Soon, the black fog that filled the entire arena was completely blown away by the violent gust of wind.

When the golden light fades away, vision will be restored.

I saw.

The nine ancient war puppets that had previously surrounded Xu Ran had their underworld characters shattered, and the black flesh on their lower limbs had also dissipated, leaving only dark golden bones.

In addition, the black lines on the nine ancient war puppets have become much dimmer at this moment!
