Mortal Cultivation: I Have a Mirror of Absurdity

Chapter 144 143 Beauty is the cause of trouble

At this moment, several strands of purple mist suddenly emerged from the feet of the gray giant ape, and instantly condensed into two giant crystalline fog ropes that looked like substance, tightly covering its feet.

Unprepared, the gray giant ape suddenly fell forward and fell to the ground. After a loud bang, a large amount of smoke and dust was thrown up.

Looking at the purple mist that suddenly appeared outside the city, Wang Geng suddenly remembered something. He immediately turned back to the center of the stone city and found three people sitting cross-legged on the high stone platform. They were the only three old monks in the village.

I saw a foot-thick purple energy coming out of their bodies, which complemented the purple mist outside the city. They were obviously activating the power of the underworld.

"attack!"

At this time, someone yelled at the top of his lungs, and then an overwhelming barrage of spears and arrows rained down from the city wall towards the head of the fallen gray giant ape.

The gray giant ape knew something was wrong, and immediately roared, then opened its mouth and blew out a stream of black wind.

The wind was strong and fierce, and the ice was biting. It caused arrows all over the sky to sway like straw, and they were coated with a layer of black ice and fell to the ground.

Some of the spears slipped through the net, but they also lost their original strength. When they were pierced into the gray giant ape, they were easily bounced off by the hair on its body, or they left only shallow traces of blood.

After being injured, the gray giant ape immediately became more violent and bloodthirsty.

Its four eyes were filled with blood and flashed with blood. The mane on the back of its neck instantly stood upright, as hard as steel needles. Then it lowered its head again, and all its manes turned into black light, heading towards the city wall. Coming from above.

The villagers were obviously already familiar with the tricks of the gray giant ape. As soon as its eyes glowed with blood, they all unanimously set up a black wooden shield about 10 feet high on the city wall, and then hid behind it.

After a dense burst of 'duh' sounds, all the black light shot onto the black wooden shield, penetrating into the wood almost a foot deep.

If the black light hits a person, he will die.

The gray giant ape seems to be able to shoot out only the mane on its neck. From now on, it has no powerful means of attack. It can only rely on the sinister wind from its mouth and the waving of the giant black wood in its hand to defend itself against the villagers' attacks.

Although the overcast wind is strong, it cannot last long.

After several times, the dark wind in the gray giant ape's mouth gradually weakened and no longer had the power it had at the beginning.

Arrows and spears all over the sky began to pierce its body continuously.

In the blink of an eye, it turned into a hedgehog.

Fortunately, the animal's skin was rough and thick, and an injury like this would only cause it to bleed, but not enough to kill it immediately.

On the contrary, the unbearable pain made it become even more violent.

It tried to struggle to stand up several times, but was firmly restrained by the flashing purple light of the fog rope under its feet, and could never succeed.

As a result, the gray giant ape could only swing the black giant tree harder, hitting the ground from time to time, and gradually making craters on the nearby ground.

Obviously, these means alone are not enough for the villagers to kill the gray giant ape.

At this moment, a dozen majestic young men under the city wall suddenly shouted and rushed up the city wall together.

Their movements are agile and their breathing is long. Each of them holds several animal bone spears that are three to four feet long.

After taking aim, they all stood in a bow, raising their spears with one hand. When they said "Hey ha", they threw all the spears in their hands towards the huge monster body of the giant beast.

The sound of 'whoosh' and 'whoosh' shot through the air was immediately loud, and its force was as fierce as a powerful crossbow.

These young men of more than ten years have turned out to be mortal martial arts masters with internal strength. When throwing, they throw spears with ease, as if they were thrown like grass. Wang Geng can't help but admire him with admiration.

In an instant, dozens of large balls of blood burst out from the body of the gray giant ape, and all the giant spears were inserted into the body of the beast, nailing it to the ground alive.

The power in this beast's body quickly drained away, and the fierce flames on its body disappeared without a trace.

The villagers on the city wall immediately cheered loudly, but they did not rush out of the city immediately. Instead, they waited for the gray giant ape to be silent for a while before opening the city gate, and each rushed towards the giant beast's corpse with their weapons.

After a while, someone split open the head of the gray giant ape and found a green crystal inside. He held it in his hand and raised it high, shouting loudly in surprise, as if he had found some treasure.

When other villagers saw the green crystal in this man's hand, they also cheered.

The green crystal is the Yin beast crystal, produced in the body of the Yin beast, and is called the 'soul stone' by human monks outside.

This object is an important material for ancient monks to refine high-level puppets outside. Now it can only be found in Xutian Temple, but here it is used by monks to set up formations and protect the village.

Because this object only occasionally appears in the body of Yin beasts, and is a necessity for dealing with Yin beasts, it is extremely precious to these aborigines and even needs to be protected with their lives.

After Zi Ling lost her mana, she worked hard all the way and her body was already extremely tired. After returning to the stone house, she went back to her room to rest.

Wang Geng was still full of energy, so he went to the stone house of the three monks under the high platform again, and asked them for details about the land of the underworld, including the location of each village, the distribution of the underworld beasts and monsters, and the location of Storm Mountain. The location and timing of the opening of the Netherworld.

Knowing that more than three months later would be the next opening of the Land of Darkness, Wang Geng felt that time was running out.

Before the spatial rift on Storm Mountain opens, Wang Geng wants the Beast of No Return to devour enough Yin beasts, and also tries to find Yuan Yao. The entire Yin Ming land is a hundred miles in radius. In just three months, it will be very long. It's hard to find everywhere.

So Wang Geng secretly made up his mind to take Zi Ling away from here when she wakes up.

On the high platform in the center of the village.

After getting the detailed information about the land of darkness, Wang Geng came here.

Where the purple mist rises is a round stone plate.

The stone plate is about ten feet in size and is covered with various strange patterns and many seemingly profound runes and spells. A faint layer of light emerges from these runes and spells from time to time, indicating that the stone plate is in an open state.

Several wisps of purple mist quietly emerged from a fist-sized cave in the middle of the stone plate, then rose misty, and finally merged into the purple clouds above the village.

The formation engraved on the stone plate is quite different from the outside formation, and there are many obvious changes. It is obvious that the monks who came here changed the details of the formation in order to apply the power of the underworld.

Although this formation is a bit strange, it still cannot escape Wang Geng's eyes.

He was already familiar with various basic formation knowledge in the world of immortality, and had also studied dozens of famous immortal formations in detail. After careful consideration little by little, he soon straightened out his ideas and clarified the theory of the detailed changes in these formations. and effect.

Wang Geng didn't know if he would use this kind of formation suitable for the underworld in the future, but he should learn from it and learn from it. Even if he wouldn't use it in the future, he could increase his knowledge and develop ideas for formations.

By the time Wang Geng thoroughly studied the formation in front of him, several hours had passed.

Guessing that Zi Ling had almost had enough rest, Wang Geng walked towards the assigned stone house.

As soon as he got closer, he heard someone arguing loudly in the house. One party was Zi Ling, and the other party was a slightly familiar male voice.

"We, Fang Hu, are highly skilled in martial arts and a candidate for the next elder in the village. Our status is far above ordinary people. It is your blessing to be attracted to you. You immortal cultivators are no different from ordinary people when you get here. From now on, you can only make do with it. Just make ends meet. If you follow me, you can enjoy all the benefits. Why suffer with that pretty boy? Let’s accomplish good things while there is no one around now! Hahaha..."

"What do you want to do...No! Someone is coming!..."

Hearing this, Wang Geng couldn't help but feel furious. It was obvious that someone had taken a liking to Zi Ling, and now they took advantage of it and started to take action. Zi Ling could only shout for help.

So he quickly took a few steps forward and ran into the house.
