Bone Taoist

Chapter 740 Yama
The chessboard is covered with stars, and the black and white pieces crisscross each other, weaving a beautiful scene like the Milky Way.

Ye Zang could feel the spiritual power pressing down on him like mountains and seas on the chessboard. Every time a piece fell, the sky within this small world trembled.

The young man and the old man were playing chess and ignored Ye Zang who was walking towards them.

Around here, time and space seemed to have stopped flowing, creating a very strange spiritual environment.

Ye Zang's heavenly soul and Dharma body seemed to be imprisoned in the center of the bamboo forest, with emerald green bamboo leaves falling and gusts of breeze.

In a trance, it seemed like a lifetime had passed, or it seemed like the moment when a bamboo leaf fell to the ground.

In Ye Zang's gaze, the speed of the two people's chess game gradually increased, and their figures became very blurry and hazy, and it was difficult to see clearly.

Fairy mist gradually rose all around, pushing in from afar, gradually surrounding the entire island and pushing it into the sky.

One black and one white gradually fell on the chessboard. It was clearly a certain formation in Yitian's chess game. Ye Zang observed and deduced carefully, but saw that the chess situation was becoming more and more blurred!
woohoo-

Strong winds blew through the bamboo forest, and the space around it continued to vibrate like ripples on a large lake.

When Ye Zang came to his senses, everything suddenly became silent, the bamboo forest stopped swaying, and the young man and the old man disappeared at some point.

The only chessboard left was quietly placed in the middle of the bamboo forest, looking very lonely.
The stone tables and chairs are covered with traces of time, and have a strong and ancient atmosphere.

"It is very similar to a certain formation in Yitian's chess game. Perhaps it was derived from the chess game of the True Immortal. However, after countless years, it has become dilapidated and there is not much left."

Ye Zang couldn't help feeling a little regretful. As for which chess path it was, Ye Zang was not sure. When he was in the Zhongzhou Ancient Sect, he only entered the Great Zhoutian chess path, and only had a vague understanding of other chess paths.

If you want to know the specific development of this chess situation, you have to find an opportunity to ask Qin Xijun in the future.

This divine jade disk is the place where the Yuqiong sect passes down its magic. It should have contained some magic left behind after the chess game. However, after Ye Zang waited for a long time, there was still no manifestation of the inherited magic. It seemed that it had disappeared into thin air under the erosion of time.

Now that he was here, Ye Zang immediately used his spiritual consciousness to memorize the Yuqiong chess game and engraved it in his chaotic sea of ​​consciousness.

When I have time in the future, I will study it carefully and maybe I can gain something.

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a huge noise coming from outside the world.

As soon as Ye Zang thought about it, his heavenly soul body immediately left the jade disc and returned to his primordial spirit.

Tan Tai Jing had already walked out of the hall, and Ye Zang followed closely behind her.

The atmosphere outside was very depressing. The sky was gray, and not far away there were surging waves and the piercing and sharp roars of residual souls.

That chaotic wave that reaches the sky is pressing down on us with overwhelming force.

"Here it comes!" said a Taoist with trembling eyes.

“The scale of this chaos tide is even more terrifying than the ones I encountered before.” said an old man who was at the first level of Hedao.

"Tens of millions of ghosts, dead in the forbidden area."

"Everyone, please follow me to activate the formation." Bai Yujing soared into the air, overlooking the mountain gate's ground veins, and said in a stern voice.

Everyone did not neglect their duties, and their faces were serious and radiant.

In an instant, the Yuqiongtian sect protection formation was pushed to the extreme by them. All the magical energy had been unleashed and drained away without a trace left. It seemed that after this time, the formation would be completely destroyed.

The soul-protecting shield that condensed into a solid structure seemed airtight, confining the space in all directions.

slam-la-

Chaos waves splashed, and every wave that rose up formed a terrible chaos storm. The raindrops were as big as buckets, and the dormant chaotic energy inside could easily penetrate the mountains evolved from the spiritual consciousness in the Taixu Illusionary Realm. The power was truly terrifying. If it hit the cultivator's soul, he would be crippled if not killed.

Half an hour later, the noise became louder and louder.

Ye Zang and the others felt that the earth veins were trembling. For a moment, sand and rocks were flying, and the lingering chaotic energy was rippling, but most of it was blocked outside by the Hedao formation at the mountain gate.

The sky darkened and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

The chaos wave finally came!
boom!
There was a huge noise, as if the sky was falling down. Everyone opened their eyes wide and saw that the veins of the earth beneath their feet were splitting apart. The deafening roars of the remaining souls filled their ears and invaded their consciousness.

"My fellow Taoists, just hold on for a moment!" someone shouted.

woohoo-

The wind was blowing violently, and the chaotic waves were surging. Ye Zang was now like a small boat in the vast ocean, resisting the huge waves brought by the storm.

However, although it looks like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, the Hedao formation is still very stable.

There were also hundreds of monks resisting together, so nothing went wrong.

Ye Zang's consciousness was radiant. He squinted his eyes and looked around, his Dharma eyes seeing through everything.

It is pitch dark all around, mostly because of the influence of chaotic energy. The formation cannot completely isolate all chaotic energy. This thing is a product of the creation of the world. As long as there is a boundary, chaotic energy will be born with it.

The most important thing is that those residual souls are isolated outside the formation. Those countless residual souls and ghosts are the most terrifying. They were once the three souls and seven spirits in the body of a powerful cultivator. They can even display their original magical powers of Hedao. They are the biggest threat in the restricted area.

"The Chaos Tide, a natural disaster of such magnitude in the forbidden area, must have a source." Ye Zang thought to himself.

There are many variables in the no-man's-land.

The natural disasters caused by many territories are also bizarre. Chaos tide is only the most common type of natural disaster in the restricted areas. There are also more terrifying disasters such as divine consciousness storm.

Every once in a while, or when some good fortune comes into being, a natural disaster will occur in the forbidden area. This is unavoidable.

"There was a flash of inspiration in the northern restricted area not long ago. What kind of opportunity is there? Senior Sister might be trapped there..."

Ye Zang thought to himself that what worried him the most was Shu Aohan.

The chaotic tide came and went quickly. After only half an incense stick, this huge wave gradually disappeared behind.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their eyes trembling slightly, and they looked at the huge waves going away with some palpitations.

"Let's get going without further ado!" someone suggested.

"The northern part of the restricted area is at most tens of thousands of miles away."

"How about we travel together and share the inheritance method?" said a cultivator.

Upon hearing this, some people remained silent, while others nodded in agreement.

Now we have left the Divine Consciousness Boat, and we have to walk the rest of the way on our own.

"I'm afraid Ye Kui Shou won't agree." A Dongsheng cultivator mentioned Ye Zang coldly and said sarcastically.

After hearing this, many people cast fearful glances at Ye Zang.

Most of those cultivators were Dongsheng Taoists, and they were both wary and hateful of Ye Zang.

Ye Zang put one hand behind his back and bent his fingers to circle around.

The Taiyin Sword and the Taiyang Sword flew out from his soul, forming the power of the soul surrounding him. Ye Zang looked at them expressionlessly and said, "Opportunities in the world are obtained by those who are capable. I will not do such a thing of taking advantage of others. But if any Taoist wants to harm me, don't blame Ye Zang for being ruthless." The Taixu Illusion Realm is not like the Golden Elixir or the Nascent Soul Secret Treasure. It is itself a cave. Ye Zang will keep some tricks here. He also doesn't like to cause inexplicable variables that will hinder his cultivation. In the Taixu Illusion Realm, it is not surprising to see any strange things happening.

After these words were spoken, the Taoist priest Dongsheng snorted coldly and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Bai Yujing came out to play the good guy again. He was so good that he won over the monks from various sects. His reputation among his peers was very high now. He was almost a "friend" to everyone.

"My fellow Taoists, the ancient inheritance of the Taixu Illusionary Realm is mostly used for reference. As the basis for making a living, it is harmful but not beneficial. If you want to obtain the Dharma, it is better to invite everyone to observe it together, understand the Dharma and theories, and improve your Taoism." Bai Yujing said.

"Brother Bai, what you said couldn't be more appropriate."

"Friend Bai's words make sense. I fully agree with them." said an elder.

This is because the methods of harmony with the Tao used by ancient cultivators are somewhat different from those used today. Take Ye Zang's Taiyin-Taiyang Out-of-Body Technique for example. Although this method is mysterious, it also became the shackles that prevented Ye Zang from breaking through the Tao platform in his previous life.

The world today is different from the ancient times. One cannot practice completely according to the ancient methods, otherwise it will only become a shackle on the road of practice.

We must seek changes, constantly innovate between ancient and modern methods, and take steps to find a method that suits ourselves and adapts to the future. This is the fundamental thing.

As they talked, everyone headed north.

Ye Zang ignored them and flew to the front of the team.

His omniscient Dharma Eye opened wide, and he observed among the mountains, rivers and swamps. The spirit of the Oath-Breaking Weapon also emitted its divine consciousness, searching for the aura of the Sword of Broken Promises.

A storm was about to come, and the surroundings gradually became quiet. The quietness was a little eerie, making people feel uncomfortable.

Those chaos cracks lay between the mountains and rivers, quiet and silent. Perhaps because they had just experienced the chaos wave, they seemed particularly calm.

Half an hour later, they had walked thousands of miles away. After passing through a dark and dilapidated valley, something strange happened.

Ye Zang was walking in front when suddenly a female Taoist's scream of horror came from behind the team, which sounded particularly harsh.

"What happened? Why are you shouting all of a sudden?!"

"After all, you have entered the Hedao sect. Why are you still as jumpy as those younger generations?" said an elder with a frown.

"My senior brother who was walking with me just now is gone." The woman's face turned pale and she looked around in shock. She was so tense that she didn't notice that her senior brother who was still talking with her half an incense stick ago had disappeared.

She asked everyone around her, but no one saw how his senior brother disappeared.

Hearing this, everyone also realized something and looked around to count the number of people.

If you don’t check, you won’t know. If you check, you will be shocked.

There are a total of twenty-seven people missing from the team!
They were all walking side by side, never leaving each other. After only half an hour of going deep, someone disappeared without anyone noticing, and they didn't even notice it.

This made people's hair stand on end. For a moment, an atmosphere of panic spread in the team.

Bai Yujing and Tan Taijing also frowned and looked around.

Even their spiritual powers did not find anything unusual, including Ye Zang's, and his Dharma Eye did not detect any restrictions.

Those people, like chaotic energy, disappeared without a trace, leaving no clues.

The crowd did not act rashly. They just stood still and looked around.

The surroundings were extremely quiet. The mountains, rivers and lakes looked like a ruined landscape painting, and the sky was obscured by gray-brown chaotic air.

“In the restricted area, space and time cannot be defined by common sense. They may have stepped into the countercurrent of chaos.” said an elder who was at the first level of Hedao.

Ye Zang's eyes were slightly focused, the spiritual orifice on his forehead opened, and the light of his omnipotent Dharma Eye carefully observed the surrounding space.

After half a breath, he seemed to have found something and began to pace around.

Everyone's eyes followed closely.

"Brother Ye, have you discovered anything?" Tan Tai Jing asked thoughtfully.

"Sometimes, maybe we can observe the chaotic space from another angle." Ye Zang said casually.

Bai Yujing frowned slightly and calculated with his fingers.

This is the experience that Ye Zang gained from the ancient tribes of the colorless world. The strange situation that happened at this moment is somewhat similar to those of the ancient tribes of the colorless world. They are also lurking at the edge of the chaotic space, invisible and intangible, but you can clearly perceive that they are around.

Just like what happened in the Blood God Forest.

Ye Zang walked slowly and came to a dark open space. He stood in the air and looked at the place from top to bottom.

I found that the space here was moving slightly.

Ye Zang frowned and absorbed the huge power of his soul.

"Roar——"

Suddenly, a shrill and terrifying roar was heard, along with the piercing scream of a monk.

The creature in this space was pulled out by Ye Zang. It was a monster with bared fangs and claws, shaped like a humanoid spider. It had a human face and its fangs were dripping with dark blood.

This human-headed spider was lying on the body of a young Taoist priest. The latter's eyes were bloodshot, and his body was wrapped with silver threads of spiritual consciousness, making him unable to move.

"Senior Brother Qu!" The female disciple who had screamed earlier obviously recognized this young man. He was the Taoist who disappeared from the team.

hiss!
Once exposed outside the space, the human-headed spider immediately went crazy.

Eight hairy arms and legs danced like sharp blades, slashing at the young man's body at an extremely fast speed. The soul of this Senior Brother Qu was torn into pieces immediately.

A group of people stared in amazement, their eyes trembling with shock.

Ye Zang immediately unleashed a huge amount of spiritual power to suppress it, but the human-headed spider was not moved at all. Even though its own spiritual body was about to collapse, it still tore the young monk to pieces regardless.

A shrill scream rang out, and the air was filled with terrible murderous intent and chaotic energy.

Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, this creature and the young man's soul dissipated together, turning into chaotic energy and returning to the void.

Ye Zang's spiritual power came to nothing, and the latter frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

"What kind of creature is this!"

"The murderous intent on it... this monster came from Yama Island!" an elder shouted.

"Yanluo Island?"

"It is a Jedi that floats deep in the forbidden area all year round. Its origin is unknown. It is said to be related to the Nine Netherworld Yama during the time of the ancient great sage."
