Knife splashing

Chapter 544 New Method
The candle has not yet gone out.

At this moment, the yang energy between heaven and earth has not yet risen, and the evil energy in the cave remains. Under the candlelight, the frost and ice emit a faint white mist.

Li Yan slowly stood up and stretched his stiff joints.

Strongly recommend Taishan, Qianbazhuan, Quedilong...

After practicing the ten major techniques of Red Fist one by one, his skin had begun to turn red and hot steam was coming out of his body.

At this moment, he was only one step away from being immune to cold and heat.

Ordinary people would freeze to death in this ice cellar, but for him, it was just too cold to sleep.

Li Yan walked down from the altar, opened the bag beside him, took out the secret book of Fengdu magic given by Juechenzi, and examined it carefully in the candlelight.

The "Northern Emperor Sutra" he originally learned was the method of the Northern Ghost Emperor. Although it was extraordinary, it was still inferior to the Fengdu method.

Some of the magic techniques above were so frightening that it made him shudder with fear.

Especially some forbidden techniques, such as the "Secret Spell of the Sacrifice Order" and the "Black Wind Spell", the power, requirements and cost of using them are simply daunting.

Of course, both methods have their own strengths.

The "Beidi Sutra" is stronger than individual combat, and we must not give up in the future.

The Fengdu method is mainly about summoning and motivating people to fight.

Li Yan can now only summon the eight generals from the outer altar.

After one's Taoism level is raised, one can summon higher-level powers. According to the book, one can even ask the Northern Emperor for blessings himself.

As for whether there is anyone who can be invited?
Those are two different things.

Juechenzi was a man of extraordinary talent. After practicing for his entire life, at the peak of his powers, he could at most invite the gods of Fengdu to his aid.

Li Yan is now also inviting generals.

There are two main methods used.

One is blessing, the other is summoning.

The method of blessing can not only bless spells, but also bless magical instruments.

If he had used the Northern Emperor's Yin Thunder Palm just now, he could have borrowed the power of the Eight Generals of the Outer Altar, circulated the Yin-Yang Bagua, and strengthened the Yin Thunder.

If one has a high level of Taoism, one can even attract the dark thunder from the underworld.

As for the blessed magical instruments, such as his Chu Ling paper figurine, they can summon the power of the outer altar gods and give them combat capabilities.

And to summon means, naturally, to ask his clone to fight.

Thinking of this, Li Yan immediately took out eight paper figures from the leather bag at his waist, stepped on the steps, pinched his fingers and chanted a spell:
"I am following the command of the Great Emperor of Fengdu. God of Fengdu, God of Fengdu, come quickly. The golden hammers are dancing wildly, and the iron rods are crisscrossing. All the officers of Fengdu, come quickly... Hurry up and obey the orders of the Great Emperor of Fengdu!"

Call ~
As he chanted the spell, strong winds immediately blew around him.

Black fog rose up, and eight paper figures of Chu Ling floated in the air. Eight shadows could be vaguely seen. They were dressed in silk robes, with ferocious faces, holding an order in one hand and various weapons in the other.

"disease!"

Following Li Yan's order, eight paper figures immediately revolved around him, black wind whistled, and in a flash, they appeared on the other side of the cave.

Swish!Swish!Swish!
He used the Northern Emperor's magic, and the eight paper figures around him flew up and down, their figures flickering, appearing and disappearing like ghosts.

Some lineages are good at using the Five Ghosts Escape Technique.

And Li Yan became even more extraordinary with the help of the power of the Eight Divine Generals.

After doing all this, he suddenly made a hand gesture, and the paper man spun rapidly, his aura quickly converged, and the whole person disappeared.

This is the Northern Emperor's Mysterious Water Escape, which is comparable to the invisibility technique.

puff~
Suddenly, the eight paper figures caught fire without any wind.

Li Yan's magic was interrupted and the figure of the person appeared.

Looking at the paper figure that turned into ashes, Li Yan shook his head slightly.

The talisman paper used for these Chu Ling paper figures is quite good, but they still cannot withstand the power of the Eight Gods of the Underworld.

Now it is the magic weapons that cannot keep up with the progress.

I bought some high-quality talisman paper in Qingcheng Mountain before, which I used to make paper figures. The effect should be better.

But they were all caught by Wang Daoxuan, so he could only take action after going down the mountain.

But in order to fully unleash its power, he would probably have to ask Lu San for help to create a more powerful straw man.

Moreover, it must be a rare treasure from heaven and earth.

Thinking of this, Li Yan felt a little pain.

Summon the Eight Generals of the Outer Altar. If you want to be faster, you can use them at any time during the battle. You must use good things.

Beidi Chu Lingshu is the best partner.

But these are all one-time uses.

Paper figures are still okay, but straw figures made with treasures from heaven and earth are almost the same as hitting people with silver.

But this is also a trump card.
You can usually not use it, but you can’t live without it.

After practicing for a while, Li Yan sat back on the altar and took out a talisman from his arms. It was the treasure of the Dizhi Sect: the Bing Ding Ghost Birth Talisman.

This is also a new trump card.

He already knew how to use it, but this treasure was unusual. He had to set up an altar and follow every step of the casting process.

Every time he uses it, I'm afraid it will drain him dry.

Only when you have no other choice can you use it to turn the tables...

In addition, there is also the "Beidi Sutra" that can be studied.

When you reach the fourth floor, you can learn more techniques, but human energy is limited, so you can only be selective.

There were some techniques that he simply couldn't use.

For example, the "Beidi Baoping Fa" is specifically used to suppress all invisible things, no matter if they are evil spirits or vicious evil spirits.

It is quite powerful, but requires the use of a treasure bottle and a long time of ritual and refining. So far, no suitable one has been found.

Moreover, Wang Daoxuan is more proficient in this than him.

There's no need to waste time on it.

Li Yan has now determined his own route.

Mainly close combat, it uses a variety of spells to coordinate with each other, and can cope with all kinds of situations and reduce the pressure on companions.

It also needs to be fast and able to control the situation.

As for those trump cards, they must have the power to suppress the situation.

Thinking of this, Li Yan looked at one of the methods.

This method is called "The Miraculous Sutra of the Northern Emperor".

To put it simply, it is the method of using the magical powers of Fengdu.

He couldn't understand some things before, but after repeated experience and guidance from his predecessors, he finally understood this method.

Supernatural powers, also known as supernatural powers.

Even cultivators are still mortal after all. If they want to mobilize all kinds of evil forces between heaven and earth, they can only rely on altars or magical instruments.

But there is another method, which is the magical power of the Dharma Realm.

In ancient times, the reason why those mythological characters had all kinds of amazing powers was that they used their supernatural powers to drive the evil qi.

The magical powers of the Dharma Realm are usually presented in the form of magical instruments.

Such as his soul-catching lock and the future "Fengdu Jiuquan Command Talisman".

At that time, the Lei Mansion conscripted young men, and although they made him go through a life-and-death test, they also gave him a great benefit, and that was Lei Suo.

The original soul-catching rope can only drive the evil spirit.

But now, it can store thunder.

This is a great gift.

It is equivalent to directly giving a kind of supernatural power.

Before, when he was in the secret cave of the Goddess Palace and when he killed the dragon, he accidentally got the blessing of thunder magic and became like a god.

This method is called "magic transformation".

The "Beidi Shenbian Jing" is the method of using the system.

After learning this method, one can easily control and even control the power of thunder and lightning, and can fight for a long time.

The thunder stored in the thunder rope has been completely consumed.

There is no thunder in the winter in Shu.

But if you master this method, you can also rely on the blessing of Yin Sha Qi.

In other words, Li Yan can master two kinds of "magical changes".

One is a yin spirit, full of evil spirit.

One is the God of Thunder, whose thunder is fierce.

The power of the "divine transformation" depends entirely on the magical powers of the Dharma Realm, that is, the strength of the Soul-Catching Thunder Lock.

Others might just let things take their course, but he had captured the demonic energy several times and stored up three divine powers, but to no avail.

After completing the mission in Heaven, he could also obtain Lei Gang, which would further enhance his magical powers. At this moment, Li Yan completely understood his own path.

Without any hesitation, he took out the Soul-Catching Token, and the three divine powers stored in it all poured into the Soul-Catching Thunder Rope.

Wow!
The two soul-catching lightning ropes spread outward with bared fangs and claws. Only after they grew to about fifteen meters did they consume all the divine power.

Not only the length but also the strength is enhanced.

Because the divine power has a certain repairing effect, the cracks in the Daluo Dharma body that appeared during the previous battle were also completely restored.

Li Yan didn't care, but stepped on the steps, pinched his fingers and chanted the spell, and said in a deep voice: "I am not an ordinary person, but the real Northern Emperor. My head is like black clouds, and my hair is like stars. I go from the Yang realm to the netherworld. The ten directions of the world are filled with evil spirits..."

As the incantation was chanted, the Soul-Catching Thunder Rope was retracted, wrapping around his body and limbs. The last two meters were transformed into two flying ribbons.

The evil energy gathers.

Li Yan was surrounded by a blurry black mist, and his figure seemed to have grown larger, like a ghost from the underworld...

………………

The wind howled and the snow fell.

In a thatched house in a tea garden on the mountain.

The charcoal in the brazier crackled and the orange flames flickered, maintaining the temperature in the room.

"Why is it raining again, damn weather?"

As soon as Sharifei opened the window, he was startled by the wind and snow. After cursing, he ran out with the teapot, punched the floating ice on the surface of the water tank in the yard, and filled the pot with water.

After returning to the house, he kicked the door shut and bolted it, then hung the kettle on the brazier.

The environment of this tea house is not that high-end.

Hou Xuan and others invested money to set up this tea house in order to grow tea and sell it, but they didn't plan on entertaining any guests, so they built ordinary thatched houses with thin mud walls.

Living here in winter is really a torture.

“It’s nice to have a place like this.”

Wang Daoxuan shook his head slightly, and while reading by the firelight, he said, "A sudden snowstorm, a brick or tile will be enough to cover my body. If I return to Guan County, I might be hiding from the officials in the snow right now."

"Master, what you said is true."

Sharifi smiled and said, "I'm not complaining. I just remember that when I had no money, I suffered in the shabby inn. It was smelly and cold. I think I will enjoy life when I have money in the future."

"I never thought that now that I am rich, I still suffer!"

He is just making small talk and being witty.

There is no way. It is too cold in the room to sleep. The weather this year is a bit weird. The weather in Shu is even colder than the winter in the north.

Lu San also leaned against the brazier.

He didn't say anything, but just carved sticks and bones with a knife. The little white fox, the rat, the second rat, and even the falcon Lidong all surrounded him tightly, huddled together for warmth.

In this kind of weather, he couldn't bear to send his friends out to suffer.

call!
At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew, and a yellow talisman that Wang Daoxuan had pasted on the wall suddenly caught fire without wind and turned into ashes.

"Something's coming!"

Seeing this, Wang Daoxuan immediately stood up.

Since Lu San didn't send any animals to stand guard, Wang Daoxuan got a ghost, wrote a soul-binding talisman, and ordered it to patrol the mountain.

This is the natal talisman, which will give you an alarm if there is any enemy.

There wasn't even a chance to resist.

What appeared was definitely not some ordinary evil spirit.

Lu San also stood up, took two steps to the wooden door, pinched his fingers, put his ear against the door, and trembled slightly.

All his magical powers lie in his ears.

Although Li Yan had acquired a second supernatural power and could understand the language of ghosts and gods, his hearing range was still far inferior to Lu San.

"Did you hear anything?"

Sharifei grabbed the magic gun and asked in a low voice.

Lu San frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "I heard someone playing the erhu, and there were also gongs and drums..."

"Oh, that's strange."

Sharifei sneered, "It must be someone coming. It's the middle of the night. Could it be that they want to play some music before the sneak attack..."

"what!"

Before he could finish his words, Lu San let out a scream, covered his ears and rolled to the ground, seemingly in great pain.

"San'er!"

Sharifei was startled and quickly helped him up.

But at this time, Lu San was covered in cold sweat, his eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I... I can't hear you!"

"It's a magic that breaks the gods!"

Without saying a word, Wang Daoxuan took out a talisman, made some finger gestures and shook it, a flash of fire appeared, and he waved his sword finger and drew the talisman on Lu Shan's forehead.

After the spell was over, Lu San's complexion improved significantly, but he was a little panicked and kept muttering, "I can't hear anything, I can't hear anything!"

"Don't panic..."

Wang Daoxuan stopped talking halfway, opened the teapot, dipped the tea in the water that had not yet heated up, and quickly wrote on the wooden table:
Someone has used magic to break your supernatural powers. I have sealed them. You can't hear them for the time being, but they will be restored within three days.

After seeing this, Lu San finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh shit!"

Sharifei gritted his teeth and looked out the window, "The one coming must be a master, it's not safe here, let's break out first!"

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the wall behind him.

"Wuba, clear the way!"

With a low shout, Wu Ba, who had been prepared, immediately rushed forward and smashed the mud wall with a loud bang.

Without saying a word, they rushed directly into the darkness, wind and snow.

"what!"

A scream sounded in the distance.

Judging from the voice, it was the guy sent by Hou Xuan to look after the tea garden.

"Leave first!"

Sharifei was annoyed, but still clear-headed.

The other party knew about Lu San's magical powers and was able to restrain him in a targeted manner, which meant that they had already figured out their intelligence long ago.

And they still knew nothing about the enemy.

Without Lu San to investigate the environment, they are now no different from blind men. If they stay where they are, they will just wait for death.

twitter!
The eagle flaps its wings and takes off in the wind and snow at the beginning of winter.

Sharifei saw this and breathed a sigh of relief.

This falcon was originally very spiritual. After being trained by Lu San for a long time and having a fortuitous encounter, it had already begun to practice.

Even in the dark night and snow, you can see it clearly.

Although Lu San's magical power was broken, they had been together for such a long time that he could understand Eagle Dance's secret code.

“Hehehe…”

Before Sharifei could react, a strange laugh was heard from the dark sky, as if someone was screaming with his throat pinched.

"Stupid bird, stupid bird, die!"

"twitter!"

At the same time, the cries of hawks and falcons in early winter were heard.

"Come back quickly!"

Sharifei suddenly felt something was wrong and shouted loudly.

The one who launched the sneak attack was naturally the strange blood parrot.

Fortunately, the falcon Lidong was faster. It turned in the air, flapped its wings quickly and fell down, landing on Lu San's shoulder.

boom!
At the same time, Sharifei drew the flintlock rifle from his waist, listened to the wind and determined the position, then pulled the trigger into the air.

This short musket is also a new type of firearm, but it uses shotgun bullets.

"Melon skin!"

There was a curse in the air, and the sound of flapping wings disappeared.

"go!"

Sharifei gave a low shout and was about to take everyone away.

But after taking two steps, his whole body froze.

In the snow, a hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed his ankle...
