Who is still a serious fox monster these days

Chapter 277 Breaking the situation

Cai Yangong returned the courtesy and said:

"What did Fellow Taoist Yuan Chen say? Fellow Daoist uncovered the evil flirtation of the Soul-Chasing Ghost Lord for my Liudao and Jiushan. This island owner is too late to be grateful, so how can I blame him?"

Just kidding, Yuan Chen's strength is unpredictable. His divine light just now is not weaker than him, let alone his proficiency in formations.

For such people, it is better to make friends than to make enemies.

Besides, the ghost-chaser is notorious, so it would be better if he were caught, lest something happen on the island, which would cause him to be embarrassed.

Chen Yuan nodded, then cupped his fists and said:

"Island Master Cai, the Soul-Chasing Ghost Master took advantage of Liu Yang's bounty on the Blue Heart Whale to set up a fifth-level formation in that sea area with the intention of refining the monks nearby."

"Is there such a thing?!"

Cai Yan was frightened and frightened at the same time. He just wanted to prevent the chasing soul from causing anything, but he didn't expect that the other party had already done it.

Fortunately, Yuan Chen came out, otherwise Chaihun would have succeeded. As the closest island owner, he would inevitably be criticized afterwards, and even said that he colluded with Chaihun.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh:

"Just now, the owner of this island should cooperate with fellow Taoist Yuan Chen to take action and keep this beast!"

Chen Yuan didn't have much hope for this. After all, the Soul Chaser Ghost Lord was from the era of the old fox. He had been fighting evil in the immortal world for so many years and was still alive. He obviously had many back-up plans.

However, he was not discouraged, but said calmly:

"Although I failed to kill the beast this time, it still ruined his plan. There is also the possibility that the master of the Treasure Pavilion, Jin Luoming, is also in cahoots with this soul-chasing gang."

After a pause, Chen Yuan continued:

"Without further delay, I hope Island Master Cai will return to the island as soon as possible, capture Jin Luoming, and rush to the waters where the Blue Heart Whale is infested to see if Chaihun will take back his arrangements there."

Upon hearing this, Cai Yan immediately responded:

"Okay! Fellow Taoist Yuan Chen, don't be careless. The fifth-level formation is no small matter."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly, then turned into a burning cloud and dissipated.

Cai Yan's eyes were slightly focused. He didn't expect that Chen Yuan knew how to escape, so he couldn't help but whisper to himself:

"Where did this person come from? His abilities are probably not weaker than mine..."

Shaking his head, he turned back and moved back to the island.

Chen Yuan moved all the way, and within a moment he arrived at the sea area where the blue-hearted whales were.

The skeleton formation is still there, so the soul chasers probably haven't had time to come over yet.

No, it's also possible that he has quietly arrived nearby and is now seizing the monks who are squatting in their homes.

Thinking of this, Chen Yuan stopped delaying and recited the mantra, and the fox fire rose above his head.

While the four elephant fires condensed around his body, his right hand also formed sword fingers. The fox fire and the sword intention were stagnant, causing the sword fingers of his right hand to gradually emit a glorious light, and the suffocating pressure spread to the surroundings.

His unabashed accumulation of energy immediately startled the monks squatting nearby.

They flew out of the sea one after another, avoiding the position where Chen Yuan was staring, and even the Nascent Soul cultivator asked aloud:

"What are you doing, fellow Taoist?"

"If you want to vent, you might as well go somewhere else to vent. If you vent here, the Blue Hearted Whale will never come back."

However, Chen Yuan ignored it at all. With a thought, the tiger in the four-flag fire roared to heaven and earth, trampled on the sea wind and rushed towards the right eye socket of the skull formation.

The sword-wielding ghost king who was sleeping in the eye of the formation was suddenly startled, as if a great terror was about to attack him.

When his consciousness was released, he saw a colorful tiger roaring towards him. The extremely strong and yang power contained in it made it feel like it was about to die.

Without any hesitation, it directly activated the Nether Soul Drinking Formation.

A huge skull appeared on the sea surface, and the right eye socket of the sword-wielding ghost king was now emitting a rich blue ghost energy.

"cut!"

The sword-wielding ghost king roared, and combined his ghost power with the power of the formation, slashing out a blade of light that left a thick ghost mist in the air.

The sword light connected with the tiger phase, and with the blessing of the power of the fifth-level formation, the tiger phase was split in half in an instant.

And the sword light, which contained the power of the fifth-level formation, continued unabated, slanting across the sky and splitting an unresponsive Nascent Soul cultivator in half.

This Yuanying monk's spiritual consciousness was scattered, his Yuanying was shattered, and he died without even having a chance to be reborn.

Such a scene made the monks around him feel cold and frightened, and they all retreated away.

At this time, the tiger appearance was cut through, and the violent fox fire swarmed out, burning the Netherworld Soul Formation for a while.

The sword-wielding ghost king in the center of the formation had the illusion that he was about to be evaporated by the power of the sun.

At this time, the ghost mother in the other eye of the formation noticed the abnormality of the formation and woke up from her deep sleep.

Just when she was about to reveal her form and cooperate with the sword-wielding ghost king to control the large array to defend against the enemy, her movements suddenly paused.

The next moment, her figure disappeared into the formation's eyes out of thin air, causing the power of the formation to drop by several points.

The power of the formation decreased, and the sword-wielding ghost king who was also in the eye of the formation reacted immediately and roared at the void:

"Take me with you!"

However, no one responded in the void. Instead, a looming flame dragon penetrated the formation and suddenly wrapped around it.

"what!!"

The sword-wielding ghost king howled miserably, a large amount of green smoke rose from his body, his ghost power was quickly evaporated, and his breath quickly dropped.

If it weren't for the Nether Soul Soul Formation being a fifth-level formation that blocked most of its power, otherwise the fox fire activated by the Huoyang Dao Body would have burned it into blue smoke the moment it touched the body.

"Master Tiangui, save me!"

Finally, it couldn't help but scream at the vacant center, and its strong desire for survival was transmitted into the cracks in that small world.

The next moment, a ferocious face appeared, located in the vacant center of the Netherworld Soul Formation.

As soon as the grimace appeared, the Suzaku Prime in front of Chen Yuan immediately flew out with bright sun fire, while the Xuanwu Prime Minister disappeared out of thin air and escaped towards the heavenly ghost through his energy induction.

"Polar Fire?!"

Tian Gui's ferocious expression changed slightly, and he immediately mobilized the power of the formation.

However, the ghost mother left, and one of the two formation eyes was missing.

Without the intention of perfection, even if there is a heavenly ghost presiding over it, the formation will not improve at all.

Even because the sword-wielding ghost king was burned by the Flame Dragon and fell into the realm, the rank of this formation was about to drop to the fourth level.

"Chasing the soul!"

The ferocious heavenly ghost roared angrily, decisively abandoned the sword-wielding ghost king and the Netherworld Soul Drinking Formation, and hid back in that small world.

It retreated directly, and the sword-wielding ghost king had no way to survive. He screamed and was burned into blue smoke by the flame dragon phase.

And as soon as it died, the two auxiliary formations of the Netherworld Soul Formation lost their sight and immediately fell to the fourth level formation.

The skull formed by the formation roared unwillingly and was scattered by the Suzaku.

Chen Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and Xuanwu Xiang followed the Qi movement to escape, but at this moment he could not find the ghost.

The stagnant fox fire and sword intent in the sword finger of his right hand had caused severe pain in the meridians of his entire arm.

However, he did not make preparations to dispel this shocking sword, but endured the severe pain to further expand his consciousness.

Unfortunately, the monks nearby were not strange, and it was impossible to tell whether the Soul-Chasing Ghost King was among them.

With a sigh, he pointed his sword at the entrance of the small world.

"Hey!"

The sword rainbow roared out like the condensed light of the fire sun. Because it had been stagnated for too long, the sword intent and violence in it were like a runaway horse. The violent feeling made the monks present palpitate and fear.

The entrance to the small world was torn apart instantly, revealing a round white pearl.

It's just that at this moment, this white pearl is constantly being washed away by the sword rainbow, turning into fine powder and scattering.

"You brat, I remember you!"

A sinister voice came from the broken pearl, and then a strong and unknown curse force rushed out against the sword rainbow, turning into the ferocious face of the ghost. But at this moment, the face became very illusory. After staring at Chen Yuan hatefully for a while, it disappeared into nothingness with the wind.

Chen Yuan's heart moved, and he wanted to catch up to Xuanwu Xiang, who was escaping following the Qi movement, but he couldn't find any trace.

"These ghosts are really good at hiding themselves."

After frowning, Chen Yuan looked at the monks around him.

These monks were all looking at him with awe at this moment. When they saw his eyes, they all clasped their fists in flattery and said:

"Thank you, senior, for taking the initiative to kill the ghosts, otherwise I wouldn't know what happened if I were waiting here."

"That's right, thank you senior for saving your life."

"Senior's skills are amazing and admirable!"

……

Regardless of Jin Dan or Nascent Soul, everyone who met Chen Yuan's gaze began to flatter him, fearing that the strong man would suddenly take action against them.

However, Chen Yuan didn't have any good looks on his face. Instead, he looked at these people with deep meaning and said:

"The person who is setting an ambush here is the ghost chasing ghost. His body has been destroyed by me just now. He escaped with the help of a dead ghost."

"Judging from the sudden departure of the Ghost Mother during that formation, the Soul-Chasing Ghost Lord is probably nearby, and may even be among you."

After hearing this, the faces of many monks changed slightly, and then someone realized what Chen Yuan meant and shouted in panic:

"Senior! This junior is a member of the Jueshen Gu Sect. The Nascent Soul and the Spirit Gu are one, and they will definitely not be taken away!"

As he said this, a Nascent Soul curled up like a voodoo appeared above the monk's head. It looked bright and a little disgusting at the same time.

With him as an example, other monks also came to their senses and hurriedly used methods to prove themselves.

At this time, a figure appeared next to Chen Yuan, it was Cai Yan.

Looking doubtfully at the many monks who were eager to prove themselves, he said curiously:

"Fellow Taoist Yuan Chen, what is this?"

"I just broke through the fifth-level formation and forced away the hidden heavenly ghosts. But the soul-chasing ghost king didn't know whose body he had taken away and took away a ghost mother."

"Now I am talking to you about this matter. They are worried that they will go on a killing spree, so they are eager to prove themselves."

Chen Yuan said calmly, which made Cai Yan feel slightly shocked.

This person can even break through a fifth-level formation easily? !

After hesitating for a moment, he looked at the other monks:

"I, Cai Yan, am the owner of Jijiao Island. I believe you all know me."

"Island owner."

Everyone bowed their hands and bowed their heads to show their recognition.

Cai Yan nodded slightly, and then used his spiritual power to speak:

"Everyone has heard what happened today, fellow Taoist Yuan Chen. In order to prevent the soul-chasing ghost Lord from escaping, I ask you to go back to Jiji Island with me to prove your identity."

As soon as these words came out, the monks present had different expressions.

Some people agreed and some were embarrassed, but no one dared to say no.

Cai Yan's move completely ignored whether it would offend the monks present, and he was completely on Chen Yuan's side.

Even if these monks returned to their respective sects in the future and said that Cai Yan bullied the weak and feared the strong, he would admit it.

After all, the combat prowess Chen Yuan showed at this moment was worthy of his friendship with him in this way.

And just when he asked these monks to follow him back to verify his identity, a figure in the crowd suddenly disappeared.

Chen Yuan and Cai Yan's spiritual consciousness enveloped everyone. Seeing this person suddenly disappear, they immediately expanded the scope of their spiritual consciousness.

The spiritual consciousness expanded so fast that it covered a hundred miles in an instant.

Cai Yan disappeared and was already chasing after him.

Chen Yuan slowed down for a moment, and his figure turned into a burning cloud and disappeared. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart:

"Although the strength of my spiritual consciousness is no longer weaker than that in the early stage of becoming a god, my speed of sensing is indeed not as good as that of a god. I have to hurry up and improve my body. When I reach perfection, I can break through the seven tails in one fell swoop."

While thinking, his figure appeared on a sea area a hundred miles away.

Cai Yan was beside him, holding a lifeless body in his hand.

Seeing Chen Yuan following him, he shook his head and said:

"I fell into the trap, this is a fake person."

Chen Yuan's spiritual consciousness swept over and saw that there was a faint ghost aura remaining on this man's body, but it was completely different from the aura of the ghost-chasing ghost king.

No nonsense, Chen Yuan and Cai Yan moved back at the same time.

However, although the two responded quickly, when they came back, there was one less person in the crowd.

Obviously, the person who walked away behind was the real ghost-chasing ghost, and the one who suddenly disappeared in front was just a cover-up trick by the ghost-chasing ghost.

"As expected of a soul-chasing ghost king who is wanted by many sects and is still alive today. His methods are indeed impressive."

Cai Yan sighed with emotion, and then ignored the many monks who were speculating and uneasy, and looked sideways at Chen Yuandao:

"Fellow Daoist Yuan Chen, although the ghost-chasing ghost has escaped, Jin Luoming has been ambushed on the island, and he also admitted to colluding with the ghost-chasing ghost."

After a pause, he asked tentatively:

"This matter was discovered by fellow Taoist Yuan Chen. How do you think we should handle it?"

Chen Yuan pondered for a moment and said:

"If it's just Jin Luoming, there's nothing wrong with killing him directly, but if this matter also involves the Zhenbao Pavilion..."

After hearing what Chen Yuan said, Cai Yan already understood what Chen Yuan meant, nodded and said:

"I will go back and interrogate you again later. If this matter really involves the Zhenbao Pavilion, I, Liudao Jiushan, will definitely come forward and ask for an explanation from the Zhenbao Pavilion."

Chen Yuan nodded, his sense of Cai Yan was pretty good, he cupped his fists and said politely:

"Island Master Cai acts cleanly and neatly, I admire you."

Cai Yan felt slightly happy when he heard this, then raised his hand and said:

"Fellow Taoist Yuan Chen must be here for tomorrow's auction, right? Why don't we go back to the island first and let the owner of this island fulfill his duties as a landlord?"

Hearing the solicitation in Cai Yan's words, Chen Yuan did not refuse, nodded slightly and said:

"Then respect is worse than obeying orders."

"please."

After the two of them said that, they moved to the Jiji Island together.

Most of the remaining monks felt relieved.

After all, they are walking outside, and everyone carries some secrets with them.

If he was forcibly taken to the Six Islands and Nine Mountains for review, he might even cause a lot of trouble.

······

Back on Jijiao Island, Chen Yuan followed Cai Yan to meet Jin Luoming.

At this moment, the fat man had lost all his cultivation, his expression was sluggish and he could not even stop the muscles on his face from twitching.

Apparently, he had been soul-searched before.

After Cai Yan listened to the message from his subordinates for a moment, he nodded slightly and said:

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, the island owner's sworn brother has just searched Jin Luoming's soul and discovered that this soul-chasing ghost-lord has become the guest minister of Zhenbao Pavilion. He was recommended by Jin Luoming under a pseudonym. I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to use this as a handle. .”

"It's expected, but this Zhenbao Pavilion knows bad things about people. I'm going to talk to them about it in the future."

　I underestimated the workload of auditing. Sorry, I was inflated yesterday.
