In that distant little black house

The southwest is a dangerous place, the local folk customs are tough, and there are many monks with tenacious temperaments.

Since then, the demons have invaded and encountered strong resistance from the local people. However, due to the untimely support, human beings still retreat inch by inch under the offensive of the demons.

The monks in the Nascent Soul stage are very powerful wherever they are placed. As long as there is one more fighting party, it is very likely to directly change the situation of the battle. Therefore, the battle between Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu will definitely be reduced. Some pressure on the southwest edge slows down the speed of the demon invasion.

Because Zhang Jingmo had just returned to the sect, he and Lu Guijiu had not been recruited by any forces.Therefore, the two of them were not stopped by the forces in the sect when they went out. At most, the elders muttered that it was a waste of the help of two Nascent Soul cultivators.

Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu flew all the way to the southwest, but within ten days, they reached the southwest border.

The small town they came to last time has been occupied by the demons, and the humans have retreated steadily, giving up several cities.

The one who led the crowd to resist in the southwest was a relatively large sect in the area called Jinwu Society.There are tens of thousands of disciples in the inner, inner and outer sects of the sect, but there is only one Nascent Soul cultivator.

But just such a Nascent Soul cultivator is enough for the Golden Crow Society to secure the top spot in the Southwest Sect.

Zhang Jingmo had intersected with this Golden Crow Society in previous lives, so when he arrived in the southwest, he went directly to an elder of the Golden Crow Society stationed here, Di Feizhou.

Di Feizhou is a late-stage Golden Core cultivator. When the demons invaded and humans were retreating, he did not choose to give up. Instead, he tried his best to lead the rest of the people to resist. Zhang Jingmo had a good impression of him.

Their trip was very sudden, and Di Feizhou didn't know that there were two Nascent Soul monks from the central region coming to help out, so when he saw Zhang Jingmo, he immediately showed a vigilant look.

"Dare to ask why Yousuo came?" Facing Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu who suddenly appeared in front of him, Di Feizhou was a little nervous, but he didn't panic. He knew that if a Nascent Soul cultivator really wanted his life , is just a matter of moving your fingers.

Zhang Jingmo said: "My next Zhang Jingmo is the elder of the Lingxu Sect. This is my disciple Lu Guijiu."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, and I'm going to Di Feizhou." Seeing Zhang Jingmo's friendly attitude, Di Feizhou was relieved. He knew the name of the Lingxu Sect, but he didn't know why.

Zhang Jingmo said: "The Tumo League has been paying attention to the Southwest War. Knowing that the demons are fierce and the human beings are in a difficult situation, they specially sent Zhang and Zhang's apprentices to join the battle."

Di Feizhou's eyes lit up when he heard the words. They sent a lot of messages for help to the Demon League before, but they didn't respond. He thought that the Demon League might not help them, but he didn't expect that two yuan would come. Infant monk.

Two Nascent Soul cultivators——Di Feizhou's heart was beating fast. Just these two people in front of him were already worth tens of thousands of low-level cultivators.

"The honored guest is coming, but Feizhou doesn't know it. It's really far away to welcome you. Come, come and sit down first." Di Feizhou's attitude suddenly became much more enthusiastic, and he went out and ordered his servants to prepare a pot of spiritual tea, and take a good drink. Treat two.

Zhang Jingmo was not polite, and sat directly opposite Di Feizhou.

The servants quickly brought up the tea and respectfully brought it to Zhang Jingmo.

"Please!" Di Feizhou raised his teacup and saluted Zhang Jingmo.

Zhang Jingmo nodded slightly, took a sip of his tea, and said, "Time is running out, and Elder Di doesn't need to say any more polite words, let's get to the point."

Di Feizhou said hello, then got up and walked to the picture hanging in the living room, he stretched out his hand and pulled a string next to the picture, and then the canvas flipped up, turning into a map.

There are mountains, rivers and rivers on the map. Zhang Jingmo only took one look and knew that this must be a map of the military situation in the southwest.

Di Feizhou said: "The demons have arrived here." He pointed to an abandoned city on the map.

Zhang Jingmo said: "This place? Isn't that not far from where we are?"

Di Feizhou sighed and smiled bitterly, he said: "It's not far, indeed, if the two fellow Taoists don't come, I'm afraid we will have to retreat again."

Zhang Jingmo thought for a while, and said, "Then how did you resist in Yiyin City for more than 20 days?" As far as Zhang Jingmo knows, after encountering the demons, human beings were defeated with almost no resistance. Yincheng actually managed to last for [-] days.

The bitterness on Di Feizhou's face grew stronger, he said: "This matter about Yiyin City is a long story..."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Then let's keep it simple."

Di Feizhou said: "When the demons invaded Yiyin City, a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator happened to be in the city, so he fought back vigorously, and managed to survive more than 20 days."

Zhang Jingmo said: "What about the monks?"

Di Feizhou shook his head, and he said: "Afterwards, the Demon Race sent a big monster with a Nascent Soul cultivation base. The monk was afraid that the two of them would fight and harm the people, so he went to fight with the big monster in other places, but after leaving , and never came back..." Thinking about it, it was more ominous.

Zhang Jingmo said: "I heard that there are two Nascent Soul cultivators in your faction?"

Di Feizhou said indeed.

Zhang Jingmo said: "Why don't they help?"

Di Feizhou smiled wryly: "I didn't want to talk about this at first, but it's just that it doesn't make any sense to keep it a secret."

So he simply told Zhang Jingmo about this matter.

It turned out that there were indeed two Nascent Soul cultivators in the Golden Crow Society, but they had a very good relationship. One of them was about to ascend to the next level, and the other was protecting the Dharma for him.

Although Di Feizhou is an elder, he has no choice but to hold two Nascent Soul cultivators. They say they want to practice, so they can only let them practice.

Now the children and grandchildren of the sect are dying under the attack of the demons, but the two monks still haven't shown up. Faced with such a situation, not only Di Feizhou, but even the head of the Golden Crow Club have no way to invite them They came out of the mountain, so they could only watch the mountains and rivers fall.

This kind of thing is not surprising to Zhang Jingmo, because as long as the Nascent Soul cultivator ascends to the fairy world, the affairs of the human world will become a thing of the past for them. Whether it is death or not, or even the invasion of the demons, it has nothing to do with them. too much impact.

After Di Feizhou finished speaking, he sighed heavily, and looked at Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu with more gratitude, and said, "Thank you two fellow Taoists for coming to help."

Zhang Jingmo nodded, and was about to say something, but stopped, and said lightly: "There seems to be something outside, let's go and have a look."

Di Feizhou's senses were not as sharp as Zhang Jingmo's and he didn't feel anything, but since Zhang Jingmo said so, he stood up and went outside with Zhang Jingmo.

As a result, as soon as the three of them walked out of the house, Di Feizhou saw a dense patch of black flying over the sky not far from the city. He rubbed his eyes and found that with his late Golden Core stage cultivation, he couldn't see clearly. What the hell are those blacks.

Zhang Jingmo's faint voice sounded beside him, and he said: "Don't look at it, it's easy to hurt your eyes."

After he said this, Di Feizhou felt a sharp pain in his eyes and closed them involuntarily.

Zhang Jingmo said: "You just wait in the city, my apprentice and I will go back as soon as we go."

As he said that, Zhang Jingmo took Lu Guijiu and flew towards the dense black thing.

Although Zhang Jingmo has seen enough of the methods of the Demon Race, but this is the first time Lu Guijiu has seen it. He looked at the blackness covering the sky and was a little surprised. He said: "Master, these are..."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Skull array."

Sealing the dead human souls in the skull, and refining them with evil methods, finally became a kind of formation.

This formation is extremely vicious to humans, because you are attacking the souls of your own kind.

No matter who it is, the first time they encounter the skull array, they will probably panic for a while.

It's a pity that Zhang Jingmo has already gone through a lot of tempering. Seeing this formation, he didn't even frown. He said: "When attacking, remember to wrap spiritual energy on the magic weapon, so that the magic weapon will not be polluted by filth."

Lu Guijiu said yes.

Zhang Jingmo said: "Let's go."

After speaking, the two rushed towards the black formation.

The skull formation is a formation, so naturally it also has formation eyes.When Zhang Jingmo introduced it, he told Lu Guijiu the appearance of the formation eye, and told him how to break the formation.

At this moment, the skull array came overwhelmingly, and the two quickly disappeared into it.

Di Feizhou's eyes hurt for a while and then returned to their original shape. It was only when he looked at the sky again that he realized that the black thing had reached the top of his head.And he originally thought that these were bugs and the like, but he didn't expect that they were actually extremely hideous skulls!

Di Feizhou's face turned pale, but he hurriedly called the disciples guarding the city to gather.

However, most of the disciples in the city are covering their eyes and can't move. These people don't have the Golden Core cultivation base. When they look at the skull array, they feel that their eyes are stinging and they can't see.

Seeing this scene, Di Feizhou lamented in his heart, and could only put his last hope on those two Nascent Soul cultivators.

Zhang Jingmo did not destroy the formation after entering the formation, but began to search around for the location of the formation.

But before he could find the eye of the formation, he heard a woman's shrill howl not far from him, and then a surrounding skull formation crackled and exploded.

Zhang Jingmo thought that it must be Lu Guijiu who found the eye.

Sure enough, in less than a moment, the skulls around Zhang Jingmo began to turn into powder, and the souls trapped inside were released one by one, but their bodies were contaminated with filth, and even if they escaped into reincarnation, they would have to suffer a lot .

After Lu Guijiu successfully broke through the formation, he carried something back to Zhang Jingmo's side. Zhang Jingmo took a closer look, only to find that it was a little monster named Xu Xu. This little monster was very agile and was often used by the demons Used as a scout, now being held in Lu Guijiu's hand, he is wailing.

Lu Guijiu said: "Master, when I broke the formation, it kept peeking around, and I caught it right away."

Zhang Jingmo glanced at the little demon, and said, "Kill it."

Lu Guijiu nodded, and directly crushed the little demon to death.

After the little demon died, there was no body, it directly turned into a cloud of smoke and dissipated into the air.

The eyes of the skull formation were destroyed, and the formation dissipated accordingly. Seeing the sky repeat itself, Zhang Jingmo and Lu Guijiu returned to the ground from the sky.

Besides, Di Feizhou was praying secretly in his heart, when he saw that the skull array covering the sky dissipated like this, his face was beaming with joy, and he couldn't help sighing: "So this is the power of Nascent Soul cultivator...it's really powerful."

Seeing Zhang Jingmo and Zhang Jingmo flying towards him, he saluted them and said, "Thank you, senior." He no longer dared to call Zhang Jingmo Fellow Daoist...

Zhang Jingmo didn't care much about Di Feizhou's title, he nodded directly and said, "Do you know which big demon is in charge of the siege from the demons?"

Di Feizhou was puzzled when he heard the words, and he said, "Big devil?"

Zhang Jingmo frowned: "Don't you guys know about the Seven Cities of the Demon Clan?"

Di Feizhou shook his head, and he said with a wry smile: "Since the big formation broke and the demons invaded, we have been confused until now, let alone the Seven Cities, and even the types of these monsters have to be searched from ancient books some."

Zhang Jingmo's frown became tighter. Seeing that Di Feizhou didn't seem to be lying, he simply took out a book from his arms and threw it to Di Feizhou. He said, "Take it and have a good look."

Di Feizhou nodded in agreement.

Zhang Jingmo said again: "Go and call all the people in charge of your sect."

Di Feizhou said: "Senior, what's the matter?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "When I first came here, I wanted to get to know more people, so you can call them here."

Di Feizhou said yes, turned around and called for someone.

After Di Feizhou left, Zhang Jingmo asked Lu Guijiu to go out and investigate. It would be best if he could find out which big devil was leading the operation.

Lu Guijiu responded one by one, got up and left.

Di Feizhou's speed was extremely fast, and he called the people under the door in a short while.

There are more than [-] of these people, most of them are Jindan cultivators, and there are also a few foundation cultivators.Di Feizhou had already told these people about Zhang Jingmo's breaking the formation, and when they heard that Zhang Jingmo was involved in Yuan Ying's cultivation, these people all showed respectful expressions.

Di Feizhou said: "Senior, are you going to say... or..."

Zhang Jingmo said: "It's right here." After he finished speaking, his eyes swept across the crowd, and the eyes made many people feel a little bit of fear, and they lowered their heads involuntarily.

After seeing the person in front of him clearly, Zhang Jingmo's face darkened slightly, and he directly raised his hand and shot a few shots of spiritual energy, directly binding the six people in the crowd.

There was an uproar in the crowd, and Di Feizhou was stunned for a moment before he said, "Senior, what do you mean?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "Look at what these people have in common."

Di Feizhou guessed something vaguely in his heart, he looked carefully at the few people who were tied up, and said: "These people are all fierce generals under my sect... When fighting against the demons, they have always been very brave, as if they are not afraid Death...could it be?"

Some of the six people tied up by Zhang Jingmo cursed loudly, while others turned pale and even began to tremble.

Zhang Jingmo said: "There is a demon in the demon clan called Qianmian, who can transform into various forms. Although the combat power is not strong, it can easily transform into the desired human form."

Di Feizhou choked up in his heart, and said, "Could it be that the six people in front of me are all demons?"

Zhang Jingmo said: "I don't know if it's true, but you send someone to get some salt."

Di Feizhou hurriedly asked his subordinates to fetch some salt from a nearby resident.

Seeing this scene, one of the people tied up by Zhang Jingmo opened his mouth and screamed: "Elder, elder, save me——Elder, this person must be a spy sent by the demons. He wants to tear us apart. Elder Mingjian. "

Di Feizhou's face sank like water, and he didn't answer.

Seeing that Di Feizhou didn't believe what he said, the despair on his face grew stronger.

After a while, Di Feizhou's men came over with white salt and wanted to pass it to Zhang Jingmo, but Zhang Jingmo didn't reach out, but said, "Sprinkle the salt on them."

Although the person holding the salt was a little puzzled, he still did what Zhang Jingmo said. But as soon as the salt touched the skin of the bound person, it made a creaking sound, and then there were roaring sounds like wild animals. It sounded.Di Feizhou's face was pale, and he watched the six people in front of him turn into ferocious monsters with long arms and legs.

Di Feizhou said angrily: "What are you doing standing there, why don't you hurry up and talk to them every household!"

The subordinates who were stunned suddenly realized this, and hurried to a few people to inform the people in the city of the situation.

Di Feizhou smiled wryly: "Thank you senior, if there is no senior coming, I don't know how long we will be deceived..."

Zhang Jingmo said: "You're welcome."

Di Feizhou sighed.

Zhang Jingmo said: "The skull array of the demon clan is broken, and it should stop for a while. Taking this opportunity, I will talk to you about the demon clan." The skull array is already a large array, and only Nascent Soul cultivators can Breaking through easily, even a late Jindan cultivator would have to spend a lot of effort when encountering such a formation.

Zhang Jingmo was supposed to conceive a baby several hundred years later, but it was only because of the twins of the Gong family that the time for conceiving the baby was shortened, but it was also because of the two of them that the big formation was broken hundreds of years earlier.

As expected, there were quite a few Thousand Faced Demons in the city, but in just one day, more than 20 were caught, and most of them were in some confidential locations.This is probably also the reason why human beings are retreating steadily and have no power to fight back.

When Di Feizhou came to ask Zhang Jingmo how to deal with these demons, Zhang Jingmo frowned slightly, and said with a half-smile: "Finally caught alive, cut off the limbs, hung them on the tower, let the demons on the opposite side see .”

Di Feizhou nodded in agreement when he heard the words. The demons were cruel and ruthless, and the methods they used against the captured humans were even bloodier. The skull array did not spare even the souls of humans.Treating them like this is not at all excessive.

So within a few days, there were more than [-] thousand-faced demons struggling and howling on the towers of this city.For a moment, the momentum of the human race was shaken, but the demon race did not respond.

Lu Guijiu went out for three days and three nights, and brought useful information to Zhang Jingmo after he came back. He said: "The demons who attacked seem to be a city lord of Xiasi City. They have a very violent temper. After seeing those few The Queen of Thousand Faces was so angry that she wanted to send troops... but was stopped by her subordinates."

Zhang Jingmo said: "Not bad."

Lu Guijiu said: "Master...you want to..."

Zhang Jingmo sat on the chair, with a half-smile expression on his face, he said: "Since his temper is grumpy, let him... be more grumpy."

The next day, Zhang Jingmo led Di Feizhou's men to raid the city, and found out many demons hiding in the city. Most of these demons had their limbs cut off and hung on the top of the city.But Zhang Jingmo deliberately left a few little demons behind.

Di Feizhou asked him what he was going to do, but he didn't answer, but soon, everyone knew what Zhang Jingmo was going to do... He actually set up a loudspeaker array at the top of the city and placed these little devils begging for mercy Inside, let them continue to insult the city lord who is attacking the city in the language of the demons.

Zhang Jingmo can understand the language of the demons, so as long as anyone wants to play tricks and yell something, he will chop off his head with a sword, and then throw it on the other demons in the formation.

"Call me well." Zhang Jingmo's voice was still gentle, and his expression was not ferocious, but what he said was like a reminder, making these demons tremble like chaff, and they dared not say a word of rebuttal.

Standing beside Zhang Jingmo, Lu Guijiu looked at Zhang Jingmo with growing admiration.He likes to see a gentle master, and he also likes to see a cruel master. Well, to be precise, no matter what his master is, he likes it...

In fact, Lu Shu had never seen such a ruthless side of Zhang Jingmo, he said tragically: "Lu Guijiu, you have to think about it, you still like your master's appearance." In his eyes, the demons are also good. , Human beings are all objects to be attached to, so there is no obvious likes and dislikes.

So the incomparably sharp contrast between Zhang Jingmo at this time and before, almost made Lu Shu think of him: this person is unfathomable, and it is best to keep Lu Guijiu away.

Will Lu Guijiu listen?Of course he couldn't listen, so Lu Shu was not surprised to listen to Lu Guijiu and said: "What nonsense are you talking about, my master is so good, how could I not like it."

Lu Shu: "..." When it was over, he even began to wonder if he had played a trick on Lu Guijiu.No, with Zhang Jingmo's temperament, if he cast a Gu, it would be a Gu to make Lu Guijiu dislike him...

Zhang Jingmo's method worked wonders very quickly. The Lord of the lower city was indeed a grumpy person. After being scolded for three days, his subordinates couldn't persuade him any more, and rushed to the gate of the city directly to destroy the city. city.

Zhang Jingmo had already expected that he would come to call the formation, so he had already set up the formation in advance. When he saw the city lord, he sneered directly—if he knew it was this person, he would probably directly break into the demon army and strike with a sword. Will it.

Lu Guijiu asked for a fight, he said: "Master, let me go."

The strength of this city lord is not very good, Zhang Jingmo has killed several times, so Lu Guijiu asked to go, Zhang Jingmo also felt that it was okay, so he said lazily: "Go and come back quickly."
