Chapter 187, well, it's a bit awkward.
Chapter 187, well, it's a bit awkward.
Perhaps it was the gloomy sky that made the great remnant soul sense something was wrong.
It stopped chasing Zhong Muyuan and retreated into the many remnant souls. At the same time, it spewed a breath of black evil energy at a cloud deer.
Zhong Lingxin was shocked. If her black evil energy were to hit the cloud deer, the cloud deer would lose its life.
Yunlu also saw the surging black evil energy. He closed his eyes and resolutely threw out a Thunder Explosion Talisman.
Even if he dies, he will not retreat; he will hold off the remnant soul for a few breaths.
Several lightning talismans exploded in front of the remnant soul, and the power of lightning destroyed most of the black evil energy, leaving only a very small portion to spread towards Yunlu.
In her anxiety, Zhong Lingxin suddenly became extremely clear-headed. Since she could draw spiritual energy out of the Nine-Layered Pagoda and collect spirit stones and herbs, she could definitely collect the Black Fiend Qi into the Nine-Layered Pagoda.
She shouted at the black aura spreading towards the cloud deer, "Withdraw!"
The black aura vanished instantly.
Meanwhile, Zhong Chun, inside the Nine-Story Pagoda, angrily collected a wisp of energy into a jade bottle.
Zhong Chun didn't complain; he knew Zhong Lingxin had done the right thing. But this malevolent energy had caused too much damage to the Nine-Story Pagoda.
The Nine-Story Pagoda hasn't even been filled with enough spiritual energy on the first floor yet, so how could it allow evil energy to destroy it?
He had no choice but to work harder to keep the Nine-Story Pagoda running.
Sigh, I wonder if Xin Xin knows how hard he works!
We should collect more rare and precious materials so that the Nine-Layered Pagoda can quickly regenerate a pagoda spirit.
He's destined for a life of toil, spending his whole life working for a nine-story pagoda.
Zhong Lingxin vaguely saw Zhong Chun frantically tidying up the wisp of air she had thrown into the tower, and felt relieved.
When she looked again, she saw the Great Remnant Soul spew out another breath of black evil energy.
Yunlu threw out two more lightning talismans with a resolute expression.
This time, however, Zhong Lingxin and Zidian Diao Lele rushed forward and stood in front of Yunlu, unleashing even more Thunder Explosion Talismans and Blazing Flame Talismans.
The dark aura of the Great Remnant Soul was completely annihilated.
His escape route was also completely blocked.
Next, with the cooperation of Zhong Lingxin and Zidian Diao Lele, they first broke off the Great Remnant Soul's hand, then broke off its arm, then burned off its head, and finally burned it into a rectangular block that was neither gold nor iron.
Everything was a replay of the killing of the first great remnant soul.
With the death of the two large remnant souls, the dense black aura quickly dissipated.
Without a leader, the little remnant souls all fled in panic.
Zhong Lingxin didn't have time to chase after the little remnant soul; she first checked on her younger brother's leg injury.
Zhong Muyuan's injury was not serious; he only scraped his skin.
But this is an ancient battlefield, and they are being hunted down by a great remnant soul.
The dark energy had already invaded his body, damaging his meridians, dantian, and consciousness.
In order not to interfere with his sister's killing of the Great Remnant Soul, Zhong Muyuan endured the excruciating pain all over his body without uttering a sound, gritting his teeth and continuing to fight.
When Zhong Lingxin killed the Great Remnant Soul to come and see him, he had already taken the Evil-Repelling Pill with Huanhuan's help, and the black aura on his body had begun to slowly dissipate.
Zhong Lingxin patted her younger brother on the shoulder and gave him a bottle of evil-repelling pills and healing pills.
She turned around and went to kill the remnant souls.
There are too many remnant souls on the ancient battlefield, and their mission is to kill them.
As the black aura dissipated, the Qingyun Sect disciples on the periphery cheered.
Several disciples shouted, "Senior Sister Zhong! Junior Brother Zhong!"
Zhong Lingxin vaguely heard shouts and smiled as she threw two Thunder Explosion Talismans at the fleeing remnant soul.
The deafening thunderclap and the flashes of lightning in mid-air were her response to the disciples of the Qingyun Sect.
The cheers from the Qingyun Sect disciples grew even louder.
Very good!
Senior Sister Zhong and Junior Brother Zhong are still alive.
The remaining souls either died or fled.
The disciples of Qingyun Sect quickly found Zhong Lingxin and her brother.
Zhong Lingxin bowed to the disciples of Qingyun Sect and said, "Thank you all!"
The disciples of the Qingyun Sect responded in a cacophony of voices.
I'm so happy to have found Zhong Lingxin and her brother.
Two disciples who were close to Zhong Muyuan rushed over and helped him up from the ground: "Junior Brother Zhong, how badly are you injured? Were you invaded by evil energy? Fortunately, it's mostly gone."
Liu Qiang also breathed a sigh of relief.
He smiled and inquired about the situation of Zhong Lingxin and her brother.
Zhong Lingxin didn't have time to say more.
Such a large battle taking place here will surely alert disciples from other sects and evil cultivators.
She pulled Liu Qiang aside and whispered, "Senior Brother Liu, with so many remnant souls here, there must be some good stuff. Let's hurry up and look for it."
Liu Qiang understood and immediately ordered his disciples to search the vicinity carefully.
Zhong Lingxin smiled and said to her fellow disciples who were concerned about her and her brother, "Thank you, senior brothers and sisters. I'll meditate for a while."
Everyone knew that it hadn't been easy for the siblings to hold on for so long, so they didn't disturb them and let them meditate and take the elixir in peace.
While meditating, Zhong Lingxin quietly took out a mineral exploration board.
He noticed the trembling of the ore gauge pointer before he encountered the remnant soul.
The appearance of the great remnant soul made her even more convinced that there must be a great treasure nearby, either a spirit stone mine or a rare and precious natural treasure.
Regardless of the type, they must be harvested as soon as possible.
Otherwise, those looking to take advantage of the situation will soon swarm around.
The pointer on the ore-hunting chart spun wildly, pointing diagonally in one direction.
Zhong Lingxin stood up and said to Liu Qiang, "Senior Brother Liu, when my siblings and I were scouting the way, the remnant soul came from that direction."
Liu Qiang quickly looked in that direction and pointed to a cliff, saying, "Go look there."
A group of Qingyun Sect disciples rushed off in that direction.
As cultivators, they have an instinctive sense for treasures.
The disciples of Qingyun Sect wielded their spirit hoes and dug and dug.
Zhong Lingxin also quietly looked at the ore deposit table.
Yes, this is the place.
It's a pity, it's not the time for her to quietly and secretly collect ore.
Some disciples from the sect who knew a little about mining directed the other disciples to dig diagonally down the cliff.
After digging for about a day, the disciples cheered.
It has a magical quality!
There's spiritual energy down here!
In the distance, several disciples from other sects flew over.
Liu Qiang smiled and looked at them: "Senior brothers, you came very quickly."
The disciples from those sects chuckled.
Well, it's a bit awkward, isn't it?
After all, they didn't come to the rescue when others were surrounded by remnant souls.
But no amount of embarrassment could withstand the allure of the baby.
One disciple, shamelessly replying, "Senior Brother Liu, we were fighting the remnant souls up ahead when we suddenly saw a dark aura filling the sky behind us. The sect sent us to investigate. But then the dark aura dissipated. Senior Brother Liu, what did you discover? You seem so excited!"
Liu Qiang didn't hide anything from them and said cheerfully, "It's also our luck that we came across this treasure trove while following behind you. We've discovered a spirit stone mine down here, but we don't know the size of the mine yet. If any of you senior brothers are interested, you can go and mine elsewhere. This place under the cliff was first mined by our Qingyun Sect."
