I seek immortality by chance

Chapter 322: The evil eye in the lake, the magic pier to avoid evil!
Beyond the mountains, there is a large lake.

The lake is vast and boundless, and I don’t know where it extends to.

Above the lake, there is a layer of gray fog that lasts all year round, like a dome, covering the entire lake surface.

Occasionally, a strange whistling sound was heard in the fog, which seemed to be the sound of weapons breaking through the air, mixed with strange laughter, which was chilling.

Occasionally, there is a dazzling light that shoots straight into the sky, shining brightly and attracting attention.

"call out!"

Among the mountains, there are occasionally birds, monsters and beasts that cross the mountains and come to the edge of the lake, as if to drink water.

But just as they reached the surface of the lake, a gray mist surged like a tide and enveloped them. The birds, monsters and beasts flapped their wings and flew, rushing madly towards the bottom of the lake. Even though their wings were soaked and they could not flap their wings, they still tried their best to fly desperately towards the bottom of the lake, as if there were some rare treasures in the lake that attracted them.

And by the lake, under the cliff, there is a bluestone.

The bluestone is smooth and looks newer with time. It is a hundred feet long and looks like a huge broad sword lying across the lake. On top of the bluestone, there are six stone pillars engraved with seal characters. Despite the baptism of time, the stone pillars remain unchanged.

A layer of faint spiritual light diffused above the bluestone, and it was unknown what formation had been triggered. This place above the lake was the only safe haven in the entire lake, and the thick fog like a dome did not dare to cross the line.

At this time, there were already two figures waiting on the bluestone.

The Taoist priest sat on the stone pier in the middle, with his eyes closed, not saying a word, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

To his side was a big bearded man, with tiny golden lights flashing in his eyes from time to time. He kept looking towards the big lake in the distance, as if he was spying on something, but after a long time, he could only give up helplessly.

"Fellow Daoist Gua, is it true that only six people can cross this Treasure Burial Lake together?"

The bearded man withdrew his gaze, then looked at the Taoist hexagram master and asked with a gloomy expression.

Hearing this, Taoist Gua said without even raising his head, "This secret realm was originally built by Lingbao Sect for the trials of its disciples. Only with the combined efforts of six people can the dock formation be opened and the [Duyin Treasure Ship] be summoned. Without this ship, it would be wishful thinking for a mid-stage Jindan cultivator to cross the lake."

The bearded man looked at the six spiritual pillars on the bluestone with a slightly gloomy look in his eyes. After a little thought, he secretly transmitted a message to the Taoist hexagram:
"Fellow Daoist Gua, this time the secret realm is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and all the disciples of the Divine Will Sect have come to join in the fun. The final battle at Lingbao Cliff is bound to be brutal. In my opinion, how about you and I join forces?"

The hexagram Taoist sneered in his heart, knowing that Zhongli Quan was afraid of the methods of the others.

But he had been waiting for this person to speak.

After all, he was extremely alert because of the "divination" he had seen before.

After pretending to be silent for a moment, the Taoist Gua replied, "It is not a bad idea to join forces, but you still need to listen to my instructions and find an opportunity to eliminate one person first."

"Oh? Who is the one you are afraid of? Could it be Song Yuyang from the Divine Will Sect or the swordsman who showed up last?"

The bearded man asked quickly.

The two people he was talking about were the ones who gave him the most pressure. Just the way they acted when they appeared on the stage was enough to make him fearful.

If we can eliminate these two people, there is still hope for the battle for the secret realm!

"Seven Treasures Dharmakaya Sect!"

"That white-haired boy!"

The Taoist hexagram spoke in a deep voice.

"Is it him? He is from the Seven Treasures Dharmakaya Sect. No wonder he was able to take on Fellow Daoist Tang's seal with his bare hands!"

"But can this person defeat Song Yuyang? Daoist friend, please don't make a mistake!"

The bearded man was startled, but then frowned and asked uncertainly.

Upon hearing this, Taoist Gua became furious. He put away his Taoist banner, turned his back and said no more.

The bearded man immediately apologized with a smile: "Don't be surprised, fellow Daoist, don't be surprised, it's just a little unexpected, I was amazed for a moment."

Then he asked again, "What methods does this person have to make you so afraid?"

The Taoist didn't turn around, but just shook his head: "The hexagram cannot be calculated completely!"

"Then when should we start the attack? Are we sure we can handle this person?"

The bearded man asked again.

"Don't worry, there is another Taoist friend who can be won over!"

The Taoist priest smiled slightly.

The bearded man was surprised and wanted to ask more questions, but he saw a bright flash of lightning in the sky, which shattered the clouds and came with a loud bang. In the lightning, he could vaguely see a huge dragon rolling with a mighty momentum.

"coming!"

Upon seeing this, Taoist Gua turned around and grinned, revealing a look of wisdom.

"Is it this Thunder Dragon?!"

The bearded man suddenly understood and felt more confident about the battle for the secret realm on this trip.

The arrival of Lei Jiao seems to be a signal.

Above the floating clouds in the sky, I saw a green dragon, stirring up the wind and rain, driving the clouds, and coming towards the blue stone in a mighty manner.

On top of the dragon's head, there was a Taoist priest wearing green feather robes and with extraordinary manners, with his hands behind his back, smiling.

"Meet some fellow Taoists!"

Song Yuyang landed almost at the same time as Lei Jiao. The former saluted to the two of them with a smile, while the latter transformed into a nine-foot tall man. Looking at the green dragon that retracted into Song Yuyang's sleeve, he could not help but snorted coldly.

"Oh, Fellow Daoist Song is here!"

The Taoist priest smiled, bowed to Song Yuyang, led him to a spiritual pillar, and said enthusiastically:
"Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment. We only need to wait for the other Daoists to arrive, and then we can activate the formation and summon the [Du Yin Treasure Ship]."

In the face of the Taoist's hospitality, Song Yuyang just smiled faintly, then raised his eyes and looked towards the big lake in the distance.

In an instant, a green divine light emerged from his eyes and transformed into two huge beams of light, exploring the Treasure Burial Lake.

But the fog above the lake was surging and extremely thick, like a large foggy lake, reflected on the Treasure Burial Lake. Although the green divine light passed through layers of gray fog and reached the center of the lake, it was eventually obscured by the endless fog and had to be retracted.

Seeing this, Song Yuyang frowned slightly, then found a spiritual cushion, closed his eyes and remained silent.

The big man transformed by Lei Jiao snorted coldly again when he saw this, and then found another spiritual stool to sit on, while glancing at the Taoist Gua without leaving a trace.

……

……

Gu Yuan gathered his soul power and flew into the air. When he passed over the mountains, he saw four people already waiting on the bluestone.

The four of them stood on each side and occupied one side of the spirit mound.

There are only two pedestals in the corners with empty spaces.

"Fellow Daoist, please land on the spiritual pillar. When everyone is gathered, use your strength together to summon the [Du Yin Treasure Ship]."

Before Gu Yuan landed on the ground, the Taoist's earnest voice sounded from below.

Following his instructions, Gu Yuan descended from the light of escape and sat down on the spiritual stool at the very corner.

The spiritual mound was very large, about ten feet wide, more than enough for one person to sit cross-legged on. However, as soon as Gu Yuan landed on it, he felt an inexplicable suction force surging from the spiritual mound, as if trying to stimulate his magic power.

However, the suction was not strong and he could block it with just a thought.

"coming!"

Just as Gu Yuan sat cross-legged, Taoist Gua immediately turned around and shouted.

Then, on top of the last spiritual pillar, a figure suddenly appeared, turning from virtual to real and descended.

Except for Song Yuyang, everyone else looked over there inconspicuously.

"The last Taoist friend has arrived. Everyone, you can mobilize your magic power and infuse it into the spirit pillar under you to summon the [Duyin Treasure Ship]"

"Remember, don't be stingy with your mana!"

When all six people arrived, Taoist Gua looked around and then shouted loudly.

Everyone had already learned about the Duyin Treasure Ship from Gua Daoist's jade slips, and they also knew how powerful the Treasure Burial Lake was after personal investigation. Without hesitation, they all gathered their magic powers and infused them into the spirit mound beneath them.

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

The six spiritual pillars trembled in unison, and a hidden spiritual light shone again after thousands of years. The entire bluestone shook violently, and layers of blue debris kept falling, like a landslide.

Everyone was surprised to find that as the debris continued to fall, the huge "bluestone" beneath them gradually revealed the shape of a ship.

The bow of the ship is like a sword, the hull is straight, and the six spiritual pillars are integrated into one, rising in the distance, indistinguishable from the huge bluestone treasure ship.

The treasure ship had no sails, but as everyone infused their magic power into it, brilliant rays of light appeared from the hull, and then the huge bluestone treasure ship, without wind, slowly sailed towards the Treasure Burial Lake.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" As the treasure ship started moving, the heavy Yin-burial illusion on the lake surface rolled and flowed towards everyone like a shark smelling blood.

Baozhou did not react at all and allowed Yinsha to break in.

The Yin Sha was still several feet away, but everyone felt that countless illusions appeared before their eyes.

The sky was full of flowing lights, and the big lake in front of him was full of spiritual treasures. As long as he jumped, he could get the treasure and return.

"Focus your mind and don't be stingy with your magic power!!"

When Taoist Gua saw this, he became anxious and immediately exhaled and shouted loudly to the side.

This loud shout immediately awakened the bearded man and Lei Jiao. They immediately infused their magic power into the spirit pillar under them.

As the two of them increased their magical power, there was suddenly a bright light above the treasure ship. Green flames swirled up and gathered together, eventually forming a green flame barrier that floated around the treasure ship.

The phantom evil surged, but once it entered the flame barrier, it immediately turned into green smoke and dissipated.

The treasure ship moved downstream, like a green candle, slowly advancing in the gray sea of ​​fog.

Seeing this, the bearded man and Lei Jiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Song Yuyang on the side glanced at the two of them inconspicuously, as if he was about to chuckle.

The bearded man and Lei Jiao suddenly looked gloomy.

This Duyin treasure ship consumes a huge amount of magic power. As soon as the two were infused with it, they felt the magic power flowing. They were alert in their hearts and restrained themselves a little. They never expected that something almost went wrong.

"This Duyin Treasure Ship is the result of the combined efforts of the six people. Only by continuously infusing the six people's magic power can we activate the treasure ship formation and isolate the illusionary evil. Don't be stingy!"

Seeing this, the Taoist priest gave a gentle reminder.

This is also a part of the trial. If your magic power is weak and you enter Lingbao Cliff, you will lose too much magic power and lose the initiative.

The bearded man and the Thunder Dragon were both at the peak of the middle stage and were fully capable of driving the treasure ship. They just held back just now simply because of their personalities.

After coming to his senses at this moment, the treasure ship naturally had smooth sailing.

Gray fog surged, green fire shone brightly, and the treasure ship moved downstream. It sailed for an incense stick of time, and everything was peaceful.

"boom!"

But at this moment, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly rang out, followed by a gray shadow that broke through the green fire barrier outside the treasure ship and suddenly attacked Song Yuyang who was in the lead.

"Yu!"

Without seeing Song Yuyang making any movement, a seal with the word "御" lit up above his head. Then the world around him, as if cast in copper or iron, suddenly compressed and took away all the invading objects.

Gu Yuan looked up and saw in front of Song Yuyang, there was a shadow of a large axe several feet long. It was flashing with a sharp and fierce aura and trembling constantly, as if trying to break free, but it was fixed firmly and unable to move.

"Soldier soul!"

"It looks like we have reached the inner area of ​​Treasure Burial Lake. Everyone, please pay attention!"

Seeing this scene, Taoist Gua immediately shouted loudly.

Burying the Yin Phantom Evil is only the first level of difficulty in Burying the Treasure Lake, the second level is the Soldier Soul.

These weapon souls are magical instruments and treasures that were buried in the lake. They are foreign objects that were born after being nurtured and eroded by countless evil spirits. They have no entity, but when they strike, they possess the power of magic weapons. They are extremely powerful and should not be underestimated.

The most crucial thing is that there are a large number of soldier souls swimming among them like a school of fish. Even with the Duyin Treasure Ship, they cannot be completely isolated.

"Jie Jie Jie!"

Just as the Taoist Gua finished his words, another gray masked shadow suddenly broke through the treasure ship's green fire barrier and came towards the closer Lei Jiao man with a sneer.

"court death!"

Lei Jiao roared angrily, and powerful and domineering lightning suddenly burst out of his mouth.

Lightning is extremely masculine and powerful, and is best at dealing with this kind of evil things. The masked soldier spirit was shattered by the lightning after just one encounter, and turned into a wisp of gray smoke and dissipated.

"call out!"

"boom!"

But this was just a signal. Outside the green fire barrier, all kinds of strange shadows gathered and collided continuously.

The green fire grew stronger and burned with all its might, but there were still some shadows that broke through the flame barrier and came roaring towards them.

The shadows of swords, knives, gourds, banners, rulers...all kinds of magic weapons surged together.

In front of Gu Yuan, a gray ruler, with a force that could shatter mountains, suddenly smashed down on him. At the same time, there was also a chain-like phantom, whistling and swimming, as if trying to take his soul.

However, although these magical weapon phantoms are powerful, they are only of the lower third grade.

Just two questions are not enough to stump Gu Yuan.

As soon as he had a thought, two sword lights appeared from his sleeves. One flashed like thunder, and the other moved like a fire dragon. In an instant, the two shadows of the magic weapons were destroyed.

The rest of the people also used their methods to infuse magic power into the spirit pillar and destroy the phantom of the magic weapon.

For a moment, colorful spiritual light surged above the treasure boat, looking extremely gorgeous.

The phantoms of magic weapons that can break through the green fire barrier are endless and increasing in number, as if there is no end. Although everyone can continue to kill them, they still have to infuse magic power into the treasure boat. As time goes by, they all have a sense of uneasiness.

Gu Yuan also frowned slightly.

"Gua Daoist, if this continues, we will be exhausted to death sooner or later. Could it be that this lake has no end?"

Seeing this, the bearded man couldn't help but ask.

The Taoist priest looked distressed and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

The secret realm of Lingbao Sect was separated from him by too long a time. Although he knew of the existence of the Burial Treasure Lake, he didn't know much about the specific changes inside.

Seeing the endless shadow of the magic weapon at this moment, he couldn't help but feel troubled.

"It's not going to work if we keep going like this. I've already used up more than half of my mana. Why don't we just turn back first?"

The big man Lei Jiao also spoke, his expression somewhat ugly.

"clang!"

Just when everyone was in doubt, a clear bell suddenly rang from the treasure boat. Then everyone was surprised to find that outside the treasure boat, the originally densely packed soldier spirits slowly dispersed, and the view outside the boat became wide, and the clear lake surface could be vaguely seen.

However, the evil spirit still surges like rolling clouds and mist.

"what?!"

However, the bearded man looked down and found that Baozhou was no longer absorbing his magic power.

"Look!"

The Thunder Dragon suddenly looked up and pointed toward the lake.

I saw a hazy precious light flickering above the vast lake. Outside the precious light, countless soldier souls were swimming around, as if they were guarding the treasure and no longer attacking the treasure ship.

"Have we reached Lingbao Cliff?"

"But why can't I see Baoya?"

The Thunder Dragon man said in surprise.

"No, this is not Lingbao Cliff!"

"This is the evil eye in the lake, it is where the opportunity lies!"

The Taoist priest suddenly remembered something and said with a look of surprise.

"Boom!"

Just as the Taoist priest spoke, a golden spiritual pillar suddenly appeared above the treasure boat and slowly rose from inside the treasure boat.

On top of the spiritual pillar, the array patterns were sparkling, revealing a powerful magical power.

"I understand. This is a magic pier to avoid evil. If you stand on it, you can get out of the boat. As long as you can defeat the soldier spirit, you can get that opportunity!"

The Taoist priest said in surprise.

"Shh!"

As soon as the Taoist Gua finished speaking, the Thunder Dragon man flashed and landed on the golden spiritual pillar.

Layers of golden light suddenly emerged from the golden spiritual pillar and formed a golden robe on the body of the Thunder Dragon man. Then his figure flashed, and when he appeared, he was already outside the treasure boat.
