Chapter 54 Breaking the Formation
The dragon in the cold dragon pond has an extraordinary origin.
Going south along the southern wilderness, through the vast primitive wilderness, you can enter another world of immortal cultivation.
This area is called Yanhuozhou. In the northernmost part of Yanhuozhou, there is a large immortal cultivation sect called the Beast Taming Sect. The cultivators of this sect are good at keeping company with monsters. They can sign contracts with monsters and control various monsters for their own use.
More than a thousand years ago, Wei Tong, a Jindan-stage cultivator of this sect, went deep into the southern wilderness and never heard from him again. He completely lost his trace, but the soul lamp in his sect has never been extinguished.
In order to find this ancestor, the cultivators of the Yanhuozhou Beast Taming Sect have also gone deep into the southern wilderness countless times, and even went through untold hardships to enter the Yu Kingdom, Wu Kingdom and other Nanyazhou immortal cultivation worlds. Unfortunately, there has been no news for many years.
It was not until the last few hundred years that the Beast Taming Sect gave up the large-scale search, but within the Beast Taming Sect, this matter has always been an unsolved case.
This Jindan ancestor of the Beast Taming Sect was originally preparing to enter the Southern Wilds to capture high-level monster contracts. He had just captured a young green dragon with great potential, but he met the mother of the green dragon who was about to transform into a human form.
This was a level 5 top monster that was about to transform into a human form. Under the crazy attack of the mother of the green dragon, the two sides fought for more than ten years, all the way north across the entire Southern Wilds and entered the territory of Nanyazhou.
In the end, although Wei Tong, a Jindan cultivator of the Beast Taming Sect, barely escaped with his life, his physical body was destroyed. His Jindan soul was hidden in a magic weapon and he fled to the Black Mountain in a panic.
He finally hid in the Cold Dragon Pond. When his energy was exhausted, he had no choice but to possess the body of the green dragon and turned into a monster that was neither human nor monster.
Because of the great loss of soul, and the unknown mutation of humans taking over the body of monsters, his memory was lost after taking over, and he turned into a monster that was neither human nor monster.
In order to avoid being noticed, although Wei Tong later recovered some of his memory, he has been hiding in the Cold Dragon Pond and never returned to the Beast Taming Sect.
In this way, relying on the long lifespan of the monster beast, this person slowly advanced over a thousand years and became a fourth-level monster beast.
Because of the daily intake and exhalation of spiritual energy, this green dragon relied on messy memories to arrange the spirit gathering formation. After thousands of years of cultivation, the originally insufficient spiritual energy in the Cold Dragon Pond has also become a third-level upper-grade spiritual vein.
When Wei Tong first took over the body of the green dragon, he was in unbearable pain and almost went crazy every day.
In a rage, he broke his storage bag, and almost all the treasures on his body flowed into the Cold Dragon Pond.
This is how Boss Guo's foundation-building pill came from, and this is how the recipe for the Youhuan Pill came from, and this is how the Xuanyou grass under the Cold Dragon Pond came from.
The spiritual grass Xuanyou grass is very suitable for growing in the pond. Although Wei Tong has many other precious spiritual herbs in his storage bag, none of these spiritual herbs survive in the Cold Dragon Pond. On the contrary, the lowest-grade Xuanyou grass is almost everywhere in the Cold Dragon Pond. After more than a thousand years, thousands of plants have grown.
For thousands of years, the Green Dragon has been hiding and practicing carefully.
Except for occasionally going out to hunt, it never leaves the Cold Dragon Pond.
Unexpectedly, its luck is still bad. While it is out hunting, this hidden cave is still discovered by Guo Lao Da and his group of casual cultivators.
From the jade bottle left by it, Guo Lao Da actually found the foundation-building pill.
After he established his foundation, he still refused to give up and entered the Cold Dragon Pond several times to disturb the Green Dragon's practice.
Although the Green Dragon secretly punished and swallowed four casual cultivators, it did not scare Guo Lao Da and his group.
Instead, they are still greedy and spread the news, wanting to catch the cicada while the mantis catches the cicada.
This green dragon was possessed by a human Jindan cultivator. Some memories of Jindan cultivator Wei Tong remained in his mind. His wisdom far exceeded that of monsters. After thousands of years of cultivation, he developed his spiritual intelligence, which was no less than that of humans.
It found that the cave had been exposed, so it simply killed all the cultivators who entered the Cold Dragon Pond and preserved this secret cave.
Unexpectedly, there was also a disciple of Liang Laozu in it. After provoking Liang Laozu, this great enemy, the green dragon had to give up eating the corpses of the cultivators, and used the knowledge in the memory of the Jindan cultivators to refine them into corpses. Using the geographical advantages of the Cold Dragon Pond, it arranged a formation and temporarily trapped Liang Laozu.
This is how things happened. Except for the green dragon, who knew the inside story, everyone else knew only half of it and could only understand the side they saw.
——————
Zhang Zhixuan's team of ten cultivators, holding a formation flag in one hand, continuously channeled magic power, transformed into a sea of clouds, and surrounded Ma Hengsheng inside. At the same time, they sacrificed more than a dozen magic weapons and continuously attacked Ma Hengsheng's body.
Ma Hengsheng was already dead, and his body was also refined into a corpse puppet by the green dragon, becoming very hard. Even if more than a dozen magic weapons hit it, only some minor wounds were left.
The corpse puppet flew the flying sword in its hand randomly, and its body became extremely powerful. With just a slight touch, it could cut off the cultivator's magic weapon.
A few cultivators did not believe in evil and wanted to fight him head-on. In a short time, three magic weapons were scrapped, making them pale and painful for a long time.
Zhang Zhixuan and others manipulated the formation to trap a zombie puppet inside, wanting to consume its magic power, but unfortunately the zombie puppet's magic power seemed endless and could not be consumed.
After a stalemate, Zhang Zhixuan discovered that several of the lower-level cultivators in his team were running low on mana, and it was difficult to replenish it.
Once the mana is exhausted and the formation dissipates, they will be trapped in this mysterious formation and will not be able to defeat the corpse-refining puppets.
Once a cultivator dies, he will probably be refined into a puppet by the formation immediately. When the number of people is reversed, who knows how many of these hundreds of casual cultivators can escape?
"The Yin corpse is afraid of fire. Fire-attributed spells can restrain this kind of Yin corpse. Use fire-attributed talismans and spells to attack together." A casual cultivator in the foundation-building stage was knowledgeable and suddenly realized something and shouted.
Zhang Zhixuan listened and found that the person who spoke was Sun Guangyuan, who was in the seventh level of the foundation-building stage. This person had the highest cultivation and was the leader of their team.
When everyone heard this, they took out fire-attributed talismans and hit the Yin corpse.
A series of flames burned on the Yin corpse, and the Yin corpse released streams of black gas to resist the erosion of the flames. Soon the black gas was consumed excessively.
After the Yin Corpse Puppet consumed all the black gas, it emitted a stream of gray gas, which was its own corpse gas. It hoped to use its own corpse gas to resist the fire spirit talisman.
These streams of life corpse gas seemed to be like kerosene that helped to burn, but increased the power of the fire spirit talisman.
The corpse puppet let out a shrill cry, and finally fell to the ground, turning into a pile of ashes.
This scream made Zhang Zhixuan's face turn cold. He seemed to recall the exchange meeting a month ago, and Ma Hengsheng's voice and smile seemed to be still in front of him.
Zhang Zhixuan shook his head violently, dispelling this weird idea. He immediately began to command his monks to cooperate in besieging another Yin Corpse.
With the method of dealing with these Yin Corpse Puppet, the efficiency of the crowd was greatly increased. Everyone worked together and released spirit talismans without hesitation, consuming these Yin Corpses in the sea of fire.
The five foundation-building monks also spared no effort to take down the most difficult foundation-building Yin Corpse Boss Guo.
After killing all the Yin corpses, everyone used magic weapons to attack the formation altar.
By now, everyone has discovered that the formation in the Cold Dragon Pond is of Yin and Cold attribute, and this kind of formation is most afraid of fire attribute attacks.
Therefore, the casual cultivators present tried to use fire attribute spells every time they attacked. Everyone used the right medicine to deal with the Yin corpses first, then cracked the fishing net, and finally broke the formation altar.
The casual cultivators of Black Mountain were divided into four teams in total. Except for Zhang Zhixuan's team with the largest number of people, a full ninety-five people, the remaining three teams of cultivators had only seventy-three people.
With more than twenty helpers and the first time using the right method, although their casual cultivator team was the weakest, they were the first to break the formation and did not lose a single person.
The formation was broken and could no longer trap Ancestor Liang. He only heard Ancestor Liang laugh and suddenly used a huge mountain magic weapon to hit the pool.
