On the Avenue.

Chapter 236 Tongue Pulling Hell
Gao Chang, the governor of Niandu, looked at the nightmare tree from afar.

The branches and leaves of the Nightmare Tree were swaying, and its canopy covered an area of ​​more than ten acres. More than a thousand corpses were hanging on the branches, some dancing in the air, and some walking on the ground. Even he felt a little scalp-tingling at the sight.

He had never seen such a smooth break in the formation.

From the moment Chen Shi was ambushed by the Candle Lighter and dragged into the Heavenly Net Formation, to the moment Chen Shi killed the Candle Lighter, broke into the formation, killed people, broke the formation, placed the Nightmare Wood, and blocked the formation, it was all done in one go!
I have never seen such a great killing intent.

More than a thousand experts from the Banshan Sect and Bailian Hall were almost completely wiped out, with only five survivors!

Among these more than a thousand people, six or seven hundred are tomb-robbing experts carefully selected from the entire Xiniu Xinzhou. During the day, they are either fortune tellers in the countryside, or Feng Shui masters walking the streets, or peddlers carrying goods to the countryside, or coffin shop owners, or knife sharpeners.

At night, they are gentlemen who enter the tombs of the dead with Luoyang shovels to dig up graves and rob tombs.

They resell jewels from tombs, raise blood jade in their bosoms, and even raise ghosts.

They have great abilities and can come and go without a trace.

But outside the city of Niandu, after a battle to break the formation, almost all the expert tomb robbers in Xiniu Xinzhou were killed!

The remaining four or five hundred people were experts in refining weapons and treasures carefully selected by Bailian Hall, and almost all of them were killed!
Even if the soldiers from Niandu wanted to surround and kill more than a thousand people, they would have to pay a huge price.

"Chen Shi alone buried these people."

Governor Gao Chang whispered, "Who said that Chen Shi relied on the remaining power of Chen Yindu? Who said that he relied on the demons hidden in his body? Those who think so probably underestimated him. The real danger is not the demon in his body, but himself. I wonder if Xijing has noticed this..."

The information he received often came from Xijing, including rumors about Chen Shi, which all said not to provoke Chen Shi, because there were demons inside Chen Shi, and if Chen Shi died, these demons would be released, and so on.

Now, the battle to break the formation outside the city of Niandu made Gaochang realize the danger of Chen Shi.

Baili Mu’s face turned ashen and his hands and feet were cold.

Since he became the leader, the Banshan Sect has become increasingly prosperous under his leadership. He has excavated many large tombs, cut off several dragon veins, and seized some magic weapons. There are also more and more disciples in the sect, and it is showing signs of revival.

In these years, there are more and more masters in the Banshan Sect, and disciples are blooming everywhere. There are hundreds of disciples in the Jindan realm alone!

If he had not taken the initiative to follow the young master, the Banshan Sect would not have achieved its current success.

Unexpectedly, the Banshan Sect suffered a near-catastrophic blow today!

Chen Shi was too cruel.

He used the Mysterious Furnace to block the Heavenly Net Formation and stuffed a Nightmare Wood Talisman into it. The formation that originally trapped him turned into a nightmare for the Banshan Sect and the Bailian Hall.

In front of him, one thousand one hundred and forty-three masters of the Jindan and Yuanying realms were hung on the nightmare tree. There were also three corpses of masters of the Shenhua realm hanging on the nightmare tree, dancing with the swaying branches.

If he had not arrived in time, the remaining five masters of the Spirit Transformation Realm would have been swallowed by the tree.

This strange tree has grown extremely large, with its crown covering an area of ​​ten acres. More than a thousand corpses are hanging on its branches, which is extremely spectacular and weird!

"Demon... Chen Shi, you are a demon!"

Baili Mu shouted angrily, his soul left his body, standing in the void, raising his hand to offer the Tathagata Seal.

He suddenly flipped his hand, and the seal fell with his palm, as if the palm of Tathagata Buddha fell from the sky.

The Nightmare Tree controlled by Chen Shi is extremely powerful, otherwise it would not have been able to besiege the five masters of the Spirit Transformation Realm. But facing such a magic weapon, it doesn't even have a chance to escape!

Under the pressure of Tathagata's Seal, the Nightmare Wood could not move. Before the seal landed on it, it began to explode and shatter!

Tathagata's seal crushed the nightmare wood like a rotten wood, and it fell heavily to the ground. A huge palm print appeared on the ground, one hundred feet long and sixty-seven feet wide!

Baili Mu took back the seal, looked grim, stood up and left the deer chariot, and walked straight towards the Da Nan Lake.

The five masters of the Spirit Transformation Realm were exhausted and were about to catch up with him, but when they reached the lake, they could no longer see Baili Mu.

The lake water is surging, washing away all traces.

The five people stopped.

One of them was from Bailian Hall, and the other four were from Banshan Sect.

"What should we do now?" one person asked anxiously.

Another person said: "The sect master is a powerful person in the realm of God, and he also carries the magic weapon Tathagata Seal. It will be no problem for him to kill Chen Lao Mo!"

"But if the Sect Master makes a mistake, I'm afraid our Banshan Sect will be expelled..."

The lakeside was quiet.

In the past, no one would have said such a thing.

Because Baili Mu is the leader of the Banshan Sect's revival and is very powerful. Looking at the leaders of the Banshan Sect throughout the generations, they are often not as powerful as him.

Chen Shi was just a boy of twelve or thirteen years old. Even if he had been practicing since his mother's womb, he had only been practicing for about ten years. How could he compete with a master like Baili Mu?
But now, not only do some people say this, but some people also believe it.

Because Chen Shi killed too cruelly.

More than a thousand Jindan, Yuanying and four masters in the Shenhua realm were killed one after another by him and Yanmu!

Just then, the sound of hooves was heard, and Saint Xuan arrived driving a deer chariot.

The woman held up the magic weapon of Bailian Hall, the Xuanji Baibian Furnace, in one hand, and rushed past them and into the Da Nan Lake.

Two sika deer stepped on the clouds and ran on the lake. The four wheels of the deer chariot ran on the water at an extremely fast speed, leaving the five people far behind.

The five of them frowned. Saint Xuan was injured, so even if she brought the Xuan Ji Bai Bian Furnace, she might not be able to help.

"How about notifying the Fuzheng Pavilion?" someone suggested.

Fuzheng Pavilion is different from the various forces under the young master's command.

The young master has various forces under his command, such as picking the resurrection lotus at Taiping Gate, selling smiles at Yanzhi Lane, singing opera at Mingfeng Pavilion, gambling at Happy Forest, matchmaking at Hongniang, and refining treasures at Bailian Hall.

They are engaged in different businesses and belong to different sects.

But Fuzheng Pavilion is different.

The Fu Zheng Pavilion is a group of talented and ambitious people under the young master's command. It is similar to the structure of the Tian Ce Mansion during the Tang Dynasty. They have formed a small court to give advice to the young master, command military power, or contact various forces.

Some of the people in Fuzheng Pavilion came from aristocratic families, some came from famous and upright sects, and some were rare masters. There were all kinds of people.

But without exception, they all have extremely high achievements in cultivation!
The five people hesitated for a moment and finally made up their minds.

"Contact Fuzheng Pavilion!"

On the deer chariot, Saint Xuan was still a little absent-minded.

This time, she followed Baili Mu out of the city to encircle and suppress Chen Shi. She thought that with the capabilities of Banshan Sect and Bailian Hall, they would be able to capture him easily. Unexpectedly, so many people died!

She had never seen so many dead bodies!

More than a thousand corpses were hung on the trees, swaying like leaves in the wind. The scene was spectacular and weird!
She calmed herself down and realized that the deer chariot had already reached the lake. She looked around but could not see Baili Mu. She looked back but did not know where the land was.

Two sika deer pulled the chariot at a rapid speed. The two deer were a strange species that could rise up on auspicious clouds. However, after running for so long, they were a little tired and were panting heavily.

"Master Baili!" Saint Xuan called out. Her voice spread far and wide, and mist appeared on the lake surface at some point, and an echo came from the mist.

"Master Baili!"

"Master Baili!"

It was as if there was another her calling out in the mist, or as if something hidden in the mist was learning her voice.

Saint Xuan was alert. The waters of the five Great Lakes were very wide, just like the sea, and there were many strange things in the lakes.

She had heard many rumors. Passing cargo ships often saw dragon-shaped creatures wandering in the lake. Some people also saw ghosts from the underworld. It was also rumored that there were monsters in the sea that swam upstream into the lake, hiding in the fog and eating people.

"Master Baili!" The voice was getting closer and closer, and was still imitating her voice.

Saint Xuan shouted, "Who are you?"

The voice in the mist said, "I am Ji Xuanxuan, a disciple of Master Miaoyin of the Bodhi Temple. Who are you?"

The fog dispersed, and another deer chariot came. In the chariot, another Saint Xuan sat upright with a solemn look.

The woman looked at Saint Xuan with a sacred look on her face, and said angrily, "Who are you? How dare you pretend to be a disciple of my Buddhist holy land?"

Saint Xuan sneered, made a lion seal with her hands, and shouted, "Since you are a Buddhist disciple, do you dare to recite a Buddhist scripture to me?"

The Saint Xuan sneered and said, "Why not?"

Saint Xuan shouted, "Om, nu, nu, ma, yin, li, jia, yin, si, di, suo, wa, er, he, yin, ha, yin!"

The Saint Xuan followed the chanting, and when she chanted the word "Emperor", she suddenly vomited blood, her body twisted, and the treasured chariot along with the two sika deer exploded with a bang!

Saint Xuan looked into the water and saw several fish monsters, which had been killed by Buddhism and were turned upside down.

"You evil creature, you have no idea how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is. You even dared to chant the Hariti mantra with me. You deserve to be put to death!"

As soon as she said this, the sky suddenly became dark.

Saint Xuan looked up at the sky and saw that the two suns had closed their eyes at some point, leaving only the moon hanging in the sky.

There is a moon in the sky.

A moon in the lake.

The moon follows the car.

The wind blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Saint Xuan was anxious. The lake was too big. Not only did she fail to find Baili Mu and Chen Shi, she couldn't even find the way back!
At this time, she saw the light coming from the lake, and she was delighted and hurriedly drove the sika deer over.

When getting closer to the lights, the sika deer didn't dare to come forward. They only saw several cargo ships under the lights. The boatmen were several white skeletons in clothes. They were walking on the boats, some were steering the ship, and some were adjusting the sails.

"It's the people who were killed on the lake!"

Saint Xuan was shocked and stopped the carriage, intending to pray for the souls of these wronged ghosts to be reborn, so that they would not repeat the situation of the day they died day after day. Unexpectedly, as the carriage stopped, the two sika deer foamed at the mouth and sank into the water.

——The two deer ran for a whole day and night without any rest, and finally died of exhaustion.

Saint Xuan then chanted sutras to pray for the souls of the white skeletons and the exhausted sika deer on several ships, and then set off alone.

"Wow--"

There was a loud bang, and then the lake shook violently, causing huge waves that blew Saint Xuan away and smashed her heavily into the lake!

She was frightened and stood up, looking towards the place where the earthquake occurred. She saw a huge land crashing out of the lake. The other end of the land appeared above the water. It was extremely huge. The mountains on the land were looming and endless, as if there was no end!
"Is this piece of land larger than the Great South Lake?"

Saint Xuan was horrified and walked towards the land that suddenly appeared. Suddenly, she accidentally saw that she was a skeleton under the water, and it was her own reflection, walking under the water.

Saint Bai Guxuan was also holding a huge furnace in her hand, which was the Xuan Ji Baibian Furnace. However, the Baibian Furnace in her hand was already rusty and had lost its power, as if it had been eroded by a long period of time.

Saint Xuan gazed at the white bones and comprehended the mystery of this appearance and non-appearance. She was happy in her heart and felt that her cultivation had improved again.

She walked towards the flying land. The land was so huge that she could not see the end as far as she could see.

Saint Xuan was walking on this land. In the dark corners around her, there were little creatures peeking around everywhere. When she looked over, those little creatures hid and disappeared without a trace.

When she wasn't looking, these little things popped up again.

When Saint Xuan was about to see what this little thing was, she suddenly heard Baili Mu's voice coming from a distance: "Chen Shi, you led me here but didn't show up. What do you want to do?"

He was still far away from here, about dozens of miles away, and the light emitted by his soul was not very clear.

"Chen Shi is here too?"

Saint Xuan was startled, and then she saw Chen Shi acting sneakily.

When Saint Xuan saw Chen Shi, Chen Shi also saw her. He immediately took a step forward and rushed towards her. In an instant, he rushed in front of her and bumped into her with his knee!

Saint Xuan flew back and activated the Xuanji Baibian furnace to smash at Chen Shi. She thought to herself, "You attacked me at close range before... He's so fast!"

Before she could activate the Xuan Ji Baibian Furnace, Chen Shi's knee had already hit her lower abdomen!
Saint Xuan groaned, fell backwards, and endured the severe pain, regretting her action of activating the Mysterious Furnace.

After all, it is still a bit slow to activate the magic weapon, not to mention that this magic weapon is not your own.

Just as she was about to offer sacrifices to the shrine, Chen Shi had already caught up with her, turned around and punched her in the back of the head, sealing her Yuzhen acupoint.

Just as Saint Xuan was about to let her Nascent Soul leave her body, Chen Shi's other palm had already landed on her forehead.

Saint Xuan fell to the ground with a thud, tumbling and rolling until she came to a stop more than ten feet away.

She was furious and ashamed: "Could it be that there are flaws in my skills, in my lower abdomen, back of the head, and forehead?"

Chen Shi caught the Transformation Furnace that was about to fall to the ground and gently placed it on the ground.

Seeing this, Saint Xuan coughed up blood while observing him, and suddenly said, "You are afraid of Baili Mu! You are avoiding him! You are afraid of a head-on conflict with him! Chen Shi, am I right?"

Chen Shi glanced at her and did not deny it: "I am indeed afraid of him. When he killed the nightmare tree with one seal, I knew that even if I used all my skills, I would not be his opponent. I got to the lake and tried every way to avoid him, but I didn't expect that he would still chase me here."

Saint Xuan's eyes showed surprise. This man was so honest!
"Then why do you still want to provoke Baili Mu?" she asked.

"A real man should not lose the battle even if he loses the fight."

Chen Shi smiled and said, "He is in the God-Descent Realm, and I am in the Nascent Soul Realm. I can't beat him, but I can definitely beat him verbally."

Saint Xuan held back the pain and said, "I didn't expect you to be such an honest person."

Chen Shi's face was solemn: "Because this is the hell of tongue pulling. If you lie, your tongue will be pulled out. Do you believe what I say?"

"I……"

Saint Xuan was about to speak when she suddenly became alert.

Chen Shi asked doubtfully, "Saint, are you worried about something?"
