Knife splashing

Chapter 426 A different world
"You...what are you doing?!"

Lu Jiu was surprised and asked in a trembling voice.

His plan was not like this, but to blow up the cave after everyone went in, trapping them to death.

There is a trick here.

Li Yanhuo's identity as a ghost messenger is the greatest guarantee for those people, so they dare not act separately. Even if they leave people outside, they will be easily killed by the three sisters of Siming Society.

The formation here can also conceal the detection of supernatural powers.

Lu Jiu was very proud of his plan, but he didn't expect these three old ladies to suddenly take action to harm people.

"Shut up or I'll throw you in too!"

The old woman in the lead said calmly: "Although gunpowder is useful, you have underestimated the mysterious art. Blocking the exit is useless."

Pfft!Pfft!
Members of the Salt Gang continued to commit suicide by jumping into the pond.

Lu Jiu finally understood at this time.

Although gunpowder is powerful, its users are still human. When faced with these strange spells, they don't even have a chance to fire a gun.

He could not care about his subordinates at this moment, fearing that even his own life would be in danger. He clasped his fists and said in a trembling voice: "Senior, you are wise, but I don't understand, what are you going to do?"

The old woman said in a deep voice: "In the past, China suffered a catastrophe, floods were raging, and demons were rampant in the world."

"Da Yu controlled the flood, and the gods helped him. He either suppressed or killed the snakes, Ji Meng, Yu Er, and Wu Zhiqi, and brought peace to the land of China."

"Back then, the goddess of Wushan also helped Dayu to suppress the demon 'Water Tiger' here. The goddess even transformed into a god of the earth to protect this place."

As he spoke, a trace of resentment and madness flashed in his eyes, "But now, the Taoist temples are prosperous, but the Goddess Palace has become a wasteland. Why? We don't accept it!"

"In that case, let's just release the 'Water Tiger' and let the world know what retribution is!"

"A demon from the time of Dayu?"

Lu Jiu's heart trembled, but he couldn't help but doubt, "How can that 'Water Tiger' still be alive today?"

The old woman gave him a cold glance and said, "How can a mortal like you understand the mysteries of the world?"

"Yes Yes Yes."

Lu Jiu shrank his neck and dared not speak anymore.

He was already deeply regretful in his heart. Wang Mengsheng was not only insidious and vicious but also difficult to deal with, but these old witches in front of him were simply crazy!

Even as they were talking, the two women next to them did not stop, waving peach branches and dancing the Nuo dance. Finally, they took out a few pieces of mottled jade disks, smashed them one by one, and threw them all into the pond.

Gududu!
The pool water, which had already turned red, suddenly boiled.

The deep part of the pond is covered with stone eggs the size of winter melons. They are very old, have a mottled surface, and are covered with algae.

The broken jade disk fell down, causing the inner Qi to vibrate. Transparent ripples spread out immediately and swept across the stone eggs.

Wow!
The stone egg began to shake.

As the blood spread, the stone eggs were also stimulated and shook more violently, stirring up the mud at the bottom of the pool.

Click!
Finally, a crack appeared on the stone egg, and a small claw covered with black scales stretched out, waving continuously, as if trying to grab something.

Not long after, the stone eggs completely shattered, and a black shadow rushed out instantly, directly to the surface of the water, grabbing the corpse and biting it madly.

When Lu Jiu saw this, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

I saw a humanoid monster emerging from the pool. It was not big, about the size of a two or three-year-old child, with black scales all over its body and webbed claws on its hands and feet.

Its eyes were pitch black, and when its mouth opened, it split open to the ears, with jagged, sharp yellow teeth.

There was a tearing motion and his face was splattered with blood.

Water monkey?
Lu Jiu felt a little strange.

He has been making a living on the river for many years and has seen some strange things. This thing is very similar to a water monkey, but much more ferocious.

But this little thing needs to be suppressed by Dayu?
Just as he was wondering, waves surged on the water surface, and one "water tiger" after another emerged, frantically tearing the corpses of the Salt Gang minions.

The people from the Salt Gang were still trying to commit suicide by feeding themselves, but they could not withstand the tearing of these things, and even their bones were not spared.

What frightened Lu Jiu even more was that black smoke began to emerge from those "water tigers", vaguely forming human faces, which were hideous and distorted, and seemed to be roaring in pain.

The old woman's eyes were full of black bloodshot, and she said grimly: "These 'water tigers' are born with 'demonic defects' and can drive 'water minions'. The more people they eat, the more powerful they become."

As he spoke, he looked up at the waterfall, "The number of Yin soldiers we can summon is limited. Once the Gangling is used up, none of them will be able to escape!"

At this moment, the "water tiger" in the pond had completely devoured the corpse, and its originally dry scales began to emit a metallic glow.

However, their hunger seemed insatiable. They suddenly raised their heads, looked at the people on the shore, and were about to go ashore.

Lu Jiu was so scared that he couldn't help but step back.

The old woman was not in a hurry. She took out another jade disk from her bosom. It was golden in color and looked very noble.

Whoosh!
She swung her hand back, and the yellow jade disc flew out, passing directly through the waterfall and shooting into the cave.

Wow!
The pond was boiling, and dark shadows were rising up the waterfall...

…………

"right here!"

Deep in the cave, Lu San stopped.

He listened carefully, and then said, "The sound of water I heard in my dream was exactly the same as here."

This statement was a bit confusing, but Li Yan understood it.

It's like he has a supernatural sense of smell. He is much more sensitive to smells than ordinary people, and he has a very deep memory of some special smells.

Lu San can hear the voices of birds and animals. He has the ability of hearing. Sound is also a deep memory for him.

Looking around, it is just an ordinary cave with stalactites crisscrossing each other and water droplets constantly dripping and gathering on the ground.

There is also a Feng Shui layout in the cave, which cannot be cracked in a short time, and the supernatural power of detection is also affected.

Looking at the stone wall behind Lu San, Li Yan frowned slightly and turned to look at Bai Huan, "Senior, after the Goddess Palace was destroyed, were all the things inside kept by the Earth Immortals of Siming Society?"

Bai Huan shook his head and said, "The Goddess Palace was destroyed during the Warring States Period. It was a long time ago. This is my first time here, so I don't know much about it."

"Oh."

Li Yan nodded, knowing that he had found the wrong place.

He originally thought that all the things in the Goddess Palace were taken away by the earthly immortals and hidden in some secret cave, and the life plate was also inside.

But now it seems that the people in Siming Society are also not aware of it. If it weren’t for Lu San’s magical powers, they would not have been able to discover this place.

This is also a mystery after entering Ezhou.

Lu San first offered sacrifices by the lake, and in his dream he obtained something from the Divine Palace of Yunzhongjun in exchange for inheritance, and then obtained the Blood Jade Cong in the Palace of the Goddess.

Getting something in a dream is a method only available to gods.

Finding the hidden secrets and entering the Divine Palace of Lord Yunzhong might not be a problem.

But the situation is urgent now, so there is no time to take the treasure.

Just as Li Yan was about to speak, his heart suddenly trembled, and then he turned abruptly and looked back at the cave he came from.

They saw torches swaying over there, and under the dim light, a dark figure appeared, suddenly opened its big mouth with fangs, and crawled towards them rapidly.

"careful!"

Li Yan shouted softly and drew his sword directly.

He exerted his hidden strength, shortened the distance to an inch, and in two steps he came to the side of the monster. He took a T-step forward, holding the knife in both hands, and thrust it upwards.

The monster just jumped up and was hit directly by him.

Clang!
Sparks flew and a foul stench filled the air.

The monster was ripped open and flew backwards.

However, Li Yan felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

The monster's skin was as hard as iron, and there was a condensed evil aura. If it weren't for his precious sword that could break evil, it would have been impossible to cut it open.

Moreover, there were no internal organs in its abdominal cavity, only some broken fingers, bones, flesh and blood, surrounded by smelly black water.

At the same time as he hit it, there was also a wronged spirit trying to invade his soul, but it was directly shattered by the Yin Lei of the Dust-Breaking Sword.

Something even more shocking happened to Li Yan.

The monster was nearly cut in two, with only its spine and scales on its back remaining connected, but black water surged in its abdomen, and it fell to the ground and twitched continuously, and its wounds re-adhered at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, a crackling sound was heard.

More monsters swarmed in.

"It's 'Water Tiger'!"

Bai Huan's pupils shrank and he quickly played the flute.

Woohoo~
The flute sounded mournful, and the "Sesame Gu" surged up like a tide, colliding with the monsters in a blink of an eye and drilling into their bodies.

Pfft!Pfft!
The monsters fell to the ground one by one and began to snore.

"Don't do it!"

Seeing Li Yan approaching with a knife, Bai Huan hurriedly stopped him and said in a hurry: "This is the demon that the goddess suppressed when Dayu was controlling the flood. It was born from the demon's aura. Even if it is chopped into pieces, it will recondense."

As he spoke, blood spurted out of his mouth.

"Let's go quickly. The sesame poison won't last long..."

boom!
Before he finished speaking, an explosion was heard.

However, the explosive pack brought by Lu Jiu was also thrown in. With the loud explosion, dust flew, soil and rocks fell, blocking the entrance.

The "water tigers" that were sleeping all over the ground began to move again.

The sound was suppressed only when all the women in the Bai family blew their flutes together.

Li Yan suddenly turned around and looked at the stone wall. "I'll guard it, you guys start digging!"

Boom!
Wu Ba was the most obedient. He swung his axe and chopped at the stone wall.

Li Yan said anxiously: "I can send the evil spirit into the netherworld, but the Gangling will also be used up."

"If I'm not mistaken, those people are hiding outside. As long as the Gangling is used, they will take action immediately."

This is the difference between ancient and modern methods.

The establishment of the underworld should have been after the Conferred Gods War, and then with the changes in human sacrifices, it became what it is today.

In Dayu's era, although the strong could call the wind and rain and were very powerful, they could only suppress the evil spirits, and rely on famous mountains and rivers and the innate energy to eliminate them bit by bit.

But now, Li Yan was able to send him into the underworld, just like in Guodu Town, when the demon transformed into a Rakshasa was captured and sent into the underworld.

It’s not that he is stronger than those gods, but the power of time.

After such a long time, these monsters still exist today. They must have been even more difficult to deal with in Dayu's time.

"Step aside!"

Sharifei felt his scalp tingling when he saw the monsters all over the ground. He quickly asked Wu Ba to get out of the way, then took out a gunpowder bag from the backpack behind him and stuffed it into the crack.

Li Yan saw this and did not stop it.

Although it is easy to wake up those "water tigers", time is pressing and the Bai family can no longer hold on. They are afraid that before they can break through the stone wall, the monsters on the ground will riot.

"Get away from everyone!"

After placing the explosive pack, Sharifei quickly asked everyone to hide to one side.

The gunpowder bag was not big, but it contained a small amount of new gunpowder, which was originally carefully prepared by Sharifei for use in clearing roads and setting ambushes.

boom!
There was a loud bang, and rocks from the top of the cave fell down.

Some "water tigers" were hit directly. Although their heads were deflated, they still woke up and climbed up, opening their fangs and big mouths.

This is the horror of the monster.

"Demons" are mutated innate evil spirits. Rakshasa, Fei Yi, Wu Zhongke and Shui Hu are more difficult to deal with than each other.

At the same time, Sharifei also exclaimed:
"There really is a secret room!"

"You guys go in, I'll cover you!"

Li Yan shouted softly and stood behind everyone.

Whoosh!
A "water tiger" pounced, but suddenly froze in mid-air.

However, Li Yan had already used the soul-catching rope to trap the evil spirit, and then swung his long sword horizontally.

Zizizi!
An arc of electricity suddenly jumped on the blade.

Yin thunder can break the soul, but the soul of "Water Tiger" is condensed by the evil spirit and cannot be destroyed at all. Li Yan had to use Yang thunder.

There were twelve yuan coins on his Duanchen Sword, which could store twelve thunder spells. He stored six yang thunders and six yin thunders, and could use them without any hand gestures.

boom!
As the Dust-Breaking Sword swung out, thunder roared, and the "Water Tiger" was blown to pieces, completely silent.

However, Li Yan was not happy at all.

The evil spirit on the body of the "water tiger" was somewhat eliminated by the Yang Thunder, but the rest turned into surging black mist and began to gather.

This thing is really hard to deal with...

Li Yan's face was solemn, but he had no time to pay attention, because more "water tigers" had awakened and pounced on him.

At this moment, Li Yan didn't dare to hold back anymore.

Two soul-catching ropes came out at the same time, controlling the two soul-breaking flying knives to whistle up and down. As long as the "Water Tiger" was stabbed, his whole body would become stiff.

Clang!
With a direct blow, the water tiger that rushed towards him was split into two and flew away...

Bang!
He turned sideways and elbowed the right side of the "water tiger" with a broken sternum, and slammed into the stone wall...

Click!

He made a seal with his left hand, and his fist flashed with electric arcs, directly blasting the head of the "Water Tiger" that was pinned by the Soul-Breaking Flying Knife into pieces...

He moved quickly and blocked the attack by himself.

In the eyes of others, Li Yan was like a god of war. His body was crackling with electric light, and his movements were as fast as light and shadow. The "water tigers" that pounced on him flew around, either shattered or hit at weird angles.

The women of the Bai family were all shocked.

Only then did they understand why Grandma Bai Huan was so respectful to this young man, and it was probably not just because of the living ghost messenger.

And Gu Cultivator Long Yan'er also stared at Li Yan with an uncertain look in her eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking...

"Brother Yan, hurry up!"

Wang Daoxuan shouted loudly.

He knew that although Li Yan was in a very strong state, his physical strength and mental concentration were being consumed rapidly, and he would not be able to hold on for long.

At this moment, everyone has entered the secret room.

Li Yan kicked the water tiger that was rushing towards him away, then his hidden strength burst out, and he kicked the ground suddenly, and his body flew backwards into the secret cave.

The remaining "water tigers" moved just as quickly and swarmed in.

Li Yan's eyes were full of murderous intent and he suddenly raised his hand.

Wow!
The soul-catching rope whizzed out and triggered thunder in the sky at the same time.

Rumble!
Everyone only felt a roar in their ears and a dazzling flash of lightning in front of them. All the "water tigers" were struck and flew away, falling to the ground, unable to move.

"Laosha!"

At Li Yan's shout, Sharifei immediately stepped forward and took out two more explosive packs, placing them on both sides of the passage.

boom!
With a loud bang, earth and rocks collapsed, blocking the passage.

Li Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this water tiger is difficult to deal with, it has a physical body. Even if it can dig a hole, it will not be able to come out for a while.

He turned around again and looked around, with a look of confusion in his eyes, "Why are these things here?"

The cave was not small, and it was deep and dark inside, so one could not see clearly what was inside. However, there were many pottery figurines blocking the way for everyone.

All the pottery figurines are dressed in long robes with cross collars and right lapels, armor on the outside, shorts on the bottom, leg wraps, and holding long spears, standing in neat rows like a forest.

He had happened to have seen this thing in his previous life.

Qin Emperor's Terracotta Warriors...
