In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

After packing everything, Lu Yuan and the two flew out of the underground cave where they had stayed for ten years. In the end, Zhang Tie threw down dozens of fireball talismans, completely blowing up the cave.

Then Zhang Tie took Lu Yuan and ran all the way. With their current cultivation level in the Dan Formation stage, they arrived in front of a lake in Yuanwu Kingdom in only about half a day.

The two of them each performed a water-avoiding trick and sank into the bottomless lake.

After about a cup of tea, they came to a pile of rocks at the bottom of the lake.

"Is this right here?" Lu Yuan asked.

"According to the records of Ling Cangzi's life, this is the place. Senior brother, please get out of the way." Zhang Tie took two steps forward, took out a few formation flags, and threw them into the pile of rocks. After another change of magic formula, the irregularly distributed stone piles suddenly lifted up one after another, and in the blink of an eye they turned into a stone arch two people high.

The aura rippling within the arch seems to be connected to another world.

"Let's go!" Zhang Tie took the lead and stepped in.

After passing through the arch, the two entered an underground cave, which was about ten feet high. There were several underground rivers about four to five feet wide flowing in it, and they didn't know where they were going.

After a little observation, Lu Yuan discovered that this should be a natural underwater dark cave, but it had been dug and widened. The most obvious evidence is that at the intersection of several underground rivers, there is a cave similar to the one in Ling Mine. Ancient teleportation array.

"In order to avoid the pursuit of the three sects of Tianxing Sect and Shenbing Sect, Ling Cangzi used this ancient teleportation array to teleport to a strange place. After hiding there for a while, he used Dao Yuanwu to escape. He invaded another country." Zhang Tie explained that Ling Cangzi was the guy who dug up the ancestral graves of the three sects of the Tianxing Sect back then.

"Brother, why are you here? Shouldn't we go to the teleportation array in Yue Kingdom?" Zhang Tie asked.

"I want to take a look at the other side of this teleportation array. Do you still remember? According to Ling Cangzi's records, the monks on the other side of the teleportation array are good at exorcising puppets, and their spiritual consciousness far exceeds that of the same level."

"That's true." Zhang Tie nodded.

"The spiritual consciousness is far beyond the same level, and it drives the puppets. I guess the other end of the teleportation array is the far west!"

"Our Dayan Jue only has the first four levels. If you want the following techniques, you must go to the Qianzhu Sect!" Lu Yuan said with a solemn expression.

Zhang Tie didn't object when he heard what Lu Yuan said. He also practiced the Dayan Jue. And with his powerful soul, he is even more powerful in controlling formations.

"But Qianzhu Sect can stand in the extreme west for thousands of years. There are definitely Nascent Soul monks in it. Can we do it alone?" Zhang Tie expressed his concerns.

"Don't worry, when I devoured the soul named Lin, I learned some information about Qianzhu Sect."

"The current leader of Qianzhu Sect is only at the stage of cultivation. As for why he has not been destroyed, it seems to be that the founder of Qianzhu Sect, Dayan Shenjun, was also a ruthless character. After his cultivation was completed, he swept across Tiannan was invincible, even the two top masters who were known as the first monks of the two paths of good and evil in Tiannan at that time were beaten to submission by him, and then he voluntarily gave the land in the far west to God Lord Dayan as the fundamental place to establish the religion. ." Lu Yuan took out Senior Brother Lin, who had been dead for many years, to cover up.

"But even so, we must still have many foundation-building monks. If there are more than one hundred puppets per person, they can trample us to death."

"I have a clever plan!" Lu Yuan said confidently.

The two quickly stood in the ancient teleportation array, and with Zhang Tie's "teleport"!

It was still overwhelming pressure. Lu Yuan used his half-baked body-refining skills to the extreme and protected himself with gold yuan armor, and he was able to withstand it easily.

Faced with this situation, Lu Yuan guessed that it was a problem of transmission distance. From Tiannan to the Sea of ​​Chaos Stars is many times farther than to the extreme west.

......

After walking out of the dark tunnel, Lu Yuan and the two came to the ground. As far as they could see, there was endless desert. And over the entire desert, an extremely violent hurricane was blowing, and the rolled up yellow sand dyed the sky yellow.

"Bah! Why did you beat the top master of Zhengmo in Tiannan into submission and voluntarily give up the extreme west? I guess this wretched place was given away to others for nothing!" Zhang Tie didn't pay attention when he came out, and was swallowed by the hurricane. Shasha started to curse.

However, Lu Yuan had already expected it and opened a shield in advance to block out all the wind and sand.

"Where are we going? This hurricane is unusual. If we fly, we will probably run out of mana very quickly." Zhang Tie tried to fly to a high place to identify the direction, but his expression soon changed and he fell. .

"Go forward!" Lu Yuan said firmly.

"What did you find?" Zhang Tie hurried forward to search carefully, but in the vast wind and sand, he could only see a distance of more than ten feet.

"Didn't you see that the exit of the tunnel is this way, so it must be right to go forward." Lu Yuan pointed to the tunnel where the two came out.

"This, is this also possible?"

"This is called experience and experience in life, coupled with my character, it is absolutely correct." Lu Yuan said self-righteously and began to walk forward. But as soon as he walked not far, the footprints in the desert were quickly covered up by the wind and sand.

Seeing Lu Yuan's carelessness, Zhang Tie felt it was unreliable. He quickly set up a small movement formation at the entrance of the tunnel, and then quickly caught up with Lu Yuan.

Half a day later, Lu Yuan and the two had walked dozens of miles, but still did not see the edge of the desert.

"I have known you for decades, but I have never seen you with a better character. We must be going in the wrong direction!" in the vast wind and sand. Zhang Tie complained, and then a white light flashed in his hand. After several teleportations, the two returned to the tunnel entrance again.

"Go this way this time!" Zhang Tie pointed in one direction. There was no good way but to try in every direction. Fortunately, he would arrange a small moving array every ten miles, so that at least the two of them would not get lost in the desert.

Maybe Zhang Tie's character is really good. The two of them had only walked more than ten miles when they vaguely saw a green shadow.

"We made the right move this time!" Zhang Tie became excited.

"Don't be too happy too early, maybe it's a mirage!" Lu Yuan was a little unconvinced.

But after the two of them walked forward for more than a hundred feet, they finally stepped out of the desert. What caught their eyes was the rolling hills and forests, and even the faint sounds of beasts roaring and birds singing.

"Brother Zhang, what do you think of the hurricane in this desert?" Lu Yuan asked, looking back at the yellow dust smoke that went straight into the sky.

"No need to ask, why did you forget so quickly the hardship you just suffered in there?"

"Can you make use of it? I want to ambush the people of Qianzhu Sect and trap them here for a few days."

"That's right! Why didn't I think of that!" Zhang Tie quickly reacted, then took out a large number of array flag array plates and started tinkering with them.

Lu Yuan couldn't help, so he sat cross-legged on the ground, wondering what he was thinking.

"Done!" After one day and one night, Zhang Tie clapped his hands.

"This is the Hurricane Sand Formation! This formation is not very lethal, but it is better than trapping the enemy. It can guide the hurricane in the desert here, and then within a radius of dozens of miles, it will be no different from the desert. And I am still inside The function of random movement has been added, making it difficult for them to get out even if they want to.”

"But how to attract them here? Moreover, if too few people are attracted, it will be too wasteful. I have installed several high-level spiritual stones in the formation." Zhang Tie frowned.

"I have thought about it, and I will lure them out in the name of the former leader's son, surnamed Lin." In the original work, the leader of Jin University could send people thousands of miles to hunt down Yue. If he knew that Senior Brother Lin might have returned to the far west , where can I still sit down?

A few days later, on a mountain peak about a thousand feet high, hundreds of palace attics of different sizes were built up and down.

In the highest palace, an old man with a lunar face was holding several wooden dolls and looking through them. On the table next to him, there was an old carving knife.

After a while, he set his sights on a monk standing bowed below.

"What else did he say after he gave you these?"

"He said that it's time for the leader to return his things to him. He also said that this is a matter between the two of you, and asked you not to bring anyone there. He wants to have a one-on-one duel with you, and the location is near the desert. Mingfeng Valley." The monk said truthfully.

"The guy surnamed Lin is really promising. I never imagined that he could successfully form an elixir after being injured like that! But there are differences in how to form an elixir. I am only one step away from the middle stage of elixir formation. He is looking for death!" Jin The leader said coldly.

"The leader should not be careless. Although he restrained me from behind, he didn't expect that my Dayan Art has reached the third level. So I vaguely felt that there was someone with similar cultivation level to him lurking nearby. .”

"Oh, two pill-forming monks!" Leader Jin shrank his eyes at first, but then sneered.

"This kid still likes to be careful as before, but will I let you get what you want?" Leader Jin walked up and down the steps several times and suddenly ordered.

"Gather all the monks in the sect who are above the foundation level. We can't let him go this time no matter what!"

A few days later, Fengming Valley.

Leader Jin came to the valley with dozens of foundation-building monks, but he didn't wait for them to make any move. Suddenly there was a strong wind in the entire valley, and the originally green and lush valley suddenly turned into a sky full of yellow sand.

One of the monks with lower cultivation levels was unsteady and was scraped off the magic weapon. Before they could stand upright, they found that the hard gravel ground suddenly turned into soft sand, and they quickly sank into it.

"You were fooled so easily?" Zhang Tie was a little surprised on the mountain in the distance.

"The main reason is that I arranged for you to be deliberately exposed, so that they mistakenly thought they had seen through our plan. In addition, these people have become accustomed to it in the far west. Since no one cares about them, they have become more and more arrogant. Let them eat sand for a few days. Right." Lu Yuan chuckled, and then he and Zhang Tie went straight to the Qianzhu Sect's camp.

......

Under the dark night sky, in the highest palace of Qianzhu Sect, two figures flashed past.

Half a day later, Lu Yuan placed an unconscious monk in the Qi Refining Stage on the ground and shook his head.

"What, no news?"

"Well, that secret room is so important. Even Lin has only heard rumors. No one in the Qianzhu Sect knows its specific location. However, that secret room is protected by an extremely powerful formation. Can you tell me from this aspect? Start?" Lu Yuan looked at Zhang Tie.

"You can give this a try." After Zhang Tie said that, he took out some command flags and formed a complicated formation. Then these flags seemed to come alive and began to wander around the palace.

In about one stick of incense, Ling Qi flew out of the palace and stopped in front of an inconspicuous stone wall on the back of the mountain.

Zhang Tie's magic formula changed again, causing the light on the flag to flicker, forming a long snake, and submerged into the mountain wall.

But not long after, several explosions were faintly heard from the mountain wall.

"My formation flag was destroyed." Zhang Tie said solemnly.

"Is there a way to break it?" Lu Yuan asked with some uncertainty.

"Yes, through investigation just now, I found that this formation seems to have been set up for a long time, and the spiritual stones to maintain the operation of the formation have long been exhausted. Now it is an empty shell. As long as I can sacrifice the innate five-element flag, I can even counterattack Come and take control of this formation!"

"However, my cultivation is not enough to drive the Innate Five Elements Flag. You must transfer your cultivation to me. If we work together, we can drive it." Zhang Tie said slowly.

"How to cross?" Lu Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard Zhang Tie said that he could control the formation arranged by God Lord Dayan.

"There is a body-imbuing secret technique in Jin Yuan Gong. It was originally used to break through bottlenecks. Later, when I combined it with the 'Tiangong Spirit Formation', it became a backdoor for rapid cultivation. Coincidentally, we are both practicing metal. Mana, so you only need to pass your mana to me, and I will use my secret skills to guide you."

"Okay!" Lu Yuan didn't waste any time. His magic power surged and he rushed towards Zhang Tie.

After Zhang Tie received Lu Yuan's teaching, his momentum suddenly climbed to the peak of the early stage of pill formation, and then he raised the innate five elements flag.

After a series of spells were applied, the five-pole flag also disappeared into the stone wall.

Not long after, the stone wall suddenly shook violently, and a square entrance several feet long and wide suddenly appeared.

"The outermost layer of the formation has been cracked by me. We only need to go in and let the 'Innate Five Elements Flag' anchor the four directions. I will hold the thick earth flag and sit at the center of the formation. This formation will no longer pose a threat to us." Zhang Tie said About to enter.

"Wait a minute, didn't you just say that you could control the formation in reverse?" Lu Yuan stopped him.

"It is controllable, but the spiritual stones need to be reinstalled. I looked at it and found that if I want to restart this magic circle, I need at least a dozen high-level spiritual stones." Zhang Tie said with some pain.

"This place is not ordinary. If there is any danger inside, we can use the formation to resist it. Besides, there are just a few spirit stones. I have them." Lu Yuan said and took out a close-up weapon from his storage bag. Twenty high-level spiritual stones. These were all secretly mined by the two of them in various spiritual mines over the past twenty years.

We can't feel bad about these spirit stones at this time. In the original work, Han Li did not enter until he reached the Nascent Soul stage, but now the two of them are only at the Pill Formation stage. Lu Yuan must be cautious when he thinks that there is God Lord Dayan inside who can still use his spiritual attacks.

"Okay, leave it to me next." Zhang Tie said, putting the spirit stones given by Lu Yuan into the storage bag, and took out the same number of mid-level spirit stones from another storage bag.

"Didn't you say that you need to use high-level spiritual stones?" Lu Yuan was confused and had a bad feeling that he seemed to have been tricked by Zhang Tie.

"High-level spiritual stones can maintain this formation for thousands of years, but we can only let it run for a while. The mid-level is enough." Zhang Tie said as he entered the passage with a guilty conscience, and Lu Yuan followed angrily. .

The secret room was about ten feet long and wide. As soon as they entered, they were stunned by the scene inside.

There are more than a hundred humanoid puppets arranged neatly.

"Only less than half of these puppets are as powerful as those in the alchemy stage!" Zhang Tie, in addition to formations, is also proficient in weapon refining. Looking at these refined puppets, he couldn't help blurting out.

"Then let's do it!" Lu Yuan said casually, then slowly scanned the puppets, there must be one that was different.

Zhang Tie threw out more than a dozen spirit stones, and then embedded them one by one under the guidance of the five command flags.

After the spirit stone was properly placed, Zhang Tie began to make secrets, using four formation flags to anchor the four directions of the secret room, while he held a thick earth flag to move.

Auroras suddenly appeared in the entire secret room, sometimes turning into sword lights, sometimes turning into golden arcs, constantly circling in the secret room.

But no matter what the aurora looked like, Lu Yuan could feel the terrifying fluctuations from it that could kill him instantly.

"Sure enough, it is the Thousand Illusion Aurora Array! It is said that Nascent Soul monks have to peel off their skin when they come in." Zhang Tie clicked his tongue in admiration.

At this moment, a shocking fluctuation came from a puppet in the secret room that was somewhat special compared to other puppets.

"It's the Innate Five Elements Flag! I, Dayan, can be saved!"
