Chapter 114: Midnight Baby
Nearly 100 Taoist priests set up a formation on the hillside, with a total of as many as seven or eight hundred magic weapons, this battle is not trivial, they have to protect not only themselves, but also tens of thousands of mortals in the valley, as well as as many human beings within a thousand miles, including those Taoist priests who refuse to come and gather.
With such an important responsibility, the people were not very sure, and in fact, they did not even have the confidence to save their lives.
Shi Hanyuan looked into the valley, the lights were bright, the voices were chaotic, and the credulous of mortals was an advantage at this time, they completely believed in these Taoist priests, thinking that safety was easy to obtain, he was a little envious, and therefore somewhat understood why Zhao Chuye would give up his duty to protect mortals: when the burden is too heavy and the protector is at a loss, it seems to be the most normal and reasonable choice to throw it away.
He stood in the middle of nearly a hundred Taoist priests, turned around in place, and said to everyone: "If I predict correctly, the Dao Fire Gong will last for an hour or so, and it will cause a fire in everyone's hearts - who made us all enjoy Kun Chao's spell in the first place - you will feel hot all over your body, especially Mita, those who are not strong-willed will will burst and die." The best way to deal with this is to think, and our formation is to spread the nine volumes of the Sanssouci Sutra all over the thousands of miles, or even farther, to help all practitioners enter the state of thinking. ”
This is a passive confrontation method, and it is also the safest and most extensive spell, all the Taoist priests nodded, they all understood the truth, especially the seven chanting Taoist priests, they are the core members of the formation, and they are surrounded by the most magic weapons.
"Just in case, Kun Zhu's strength is incredible, if we are not opponents......" Shi Hanyuan turned around in place again, as a Taoist priest who thought he was quite qualified, he had to think of death in advance and treat it with a calm attitude, "Saving the mortals in the valley is more important than saving our lives." ”
The Taoist priests were silent, and after a while, Pangshan Taoist Shen Jixian asked, "Do you really believe in Zuo Liuying." Think there is hope for the future hidden in mortal babies?"
"I only believe in one thing, the number of babies born with viviparous Dao Root has increased dramatically in recent times, this is unusual, if we still have a little hope, this is hope, we may be able to block the attack of Dao Fire, but we are by no means Kun Chao's opponent, we must keep these hopes. Shi Hanyuan paused, "Mortals have not passed through the three fields, but they have also enjoyed the benefits of Kun Chao spells. As a result, they will also feel hot and flustered, and even die of self-harm as a result, but the Sanssouci Sutra can calm their hearts, so the seven chanters must persevere until the end. ”
Everyone understands the meaning of these words, when necessary, other Taoist priests can die, the seven chanting masters cannot die, if the formation is broken, the sound of chanting cannot be transmitted thousands of miles away. Chanters can take care of a valley with their own powers.
Time passed little by little, and the power of the formation was spreading outward, and this was a simple step, and the magic weapon could be maintained. The Taoist priest does not need to cast spells with all his might. Shi Hanyuan glanced at the mountain peak dozens of miles away, and quickly turned his gaze back, this action did not escape the attention of other Taoist priests.
No one said anything, and mortals are more likely to believe in miracles and gods when they are cornered. The Taoist priests had similar needs, Shi Hanyuan believed in special babies and talismans, and other Taoist priests hoped that one day and some time there would suddenly appear a Taoist priest who could match Kun Chao.
Kun Chao hid. It must be someone to guard against, right? If only we could find this Taoist priest in advance. One person said that the new supreme powerhouse must be a Taoist priest, there is no doubt about it.
"Maybe it's in the middle of us. Another Taoist priest was more optimistic, "It's just that the time has not yet come, and even he himself has not come to his senses." Just like Shi Daoyou, didn't he enter the realm of serving the sun in a very short period of time?"
Shi Hanyuan could only smile, noncommittal, it was a good thing to have hope after all, even if it was slim, it was worth encouraging.
Everyone was talking, and the oil lamp in front of a female Taoist priest in charge of the lamp and candle department who was in charge of vigilance shook twice, "Be careful, there is an abnormality." ”
The Taoist priests immediately entered a state of preparation, and there was still a little more than a quarter of an hour left in the ion night, and it was already very remarkable that Shi Hanyuan could calculate it to this extent.
But the circle was not attacked, and the crowd did not feel the heat.
A ring of fire appeared in the night sky in the distance, spreading outward at an extremely fast speed, occasionally making a detonation, and after spreading for dozens of miles, more new rings of fire were inspired at the edge of the ring of fire, spreading at a faster speed.
"It's the horse demon's talisman. Shen Jixian shook his head, the talisman spell looked very grand, but it didn't make much sense.
A Taoist priest who monitored the foreshadowing spells in the air sighed, "The horse demon's talisman seems to have some effect, and Kun Zhen's spell has been reduced a bit." ”
Shi Hanyuan directly observed the surrounding foreshadowing spells with spells, and also shook his head, "The attack of Dao Fire may weaken a little because of this, but it will not disappear, and it will still come at midnight." ”
"Moreover, the talisman is insufficient, the farther it goes, the weaker it becomes, and it will disappear completely if it spreads three hundred miles away at most. Shen Ji made a judgment first, and the other Taoist priests also had the same opinion.
Shi Hanyuan had to admit that the miracle did not happen.
The mortals in the valley didn't know why, and they thought that the fire ring was a spell issued by the Taoist priests, and they all looked up and watched, and even applauded loudly.
"Summoning Sect Master Zhao back, after all, he is a Moonman Daoist, and there are many superb magic weapons. A Taoist priest suggested.
Shi Hanyuan shook his head and vetoed, "Even if Zhao Chuye really repents, he can't let him join, he has been in contact with Kun Chao, and it is not safe." ”
This is a powerful reason, if Kun Chao hides a spell on Zhao Chuye, it will be a great threat.
No one made any more similar proposals, and everyone concentrated on preparing to cast spells.
There was another circle of flames in the night sky, like a burning catkins, fainter than the last time, and there were fewer foreshadowing spells to eliminate.
The female Taoist priest of the Lantern Candle Family said in a deep voice: "This time it's really here." ”
Seven or eight hundred magic instruments reacted almost at the same time, or ringing or glowing or rotating, Shi Hanyuan also noticed that the first spell casting, the other Taoist priests entered the battle in turn, and the seven chanters opened their mouths to recite the "Worry-free Sutra", the sound was high and low, the speed was fast and slow, and together they formed a peculiar sound, like the tide of the sea, like the pine waves, like the dragon's chant, no one could understand, but they all felt peaceful and happy.
The mortals in the valley were the first to hear the chanting. Some knelt down and prayed with the idols in their hands, some were drowsy, and a few monks had been reminded beforehand, and they all entered a state of thought in their rooms with the sound of chanting.
The Taoist priests had made full preparations before, and the sound of chanting resonated in many places, and soon spread thousands of miles away, and they had already informed the Taoist priests everywhere through various channels as much as possible that even if they did not come to help, they could enter the range of chanting and enjoy the benefits, and it would be better if they could bring some mortals by the way.
Soon after the chanting sounded. It was suddenly dark.
It was the middle of the night, and although the moonlight was bright, it was only vaguely visible, and in the blink of an eye, even this little bit of light was gone, and the stars and moon in the sky were still there, but apart from showing their presence, their light was almost useless, and they could see nothing except when they stretched out their hands.
Along with the darkness came a thump. It hit everyone's hearts and minds, everyone felt fear and panic, and the chanting sound became hoarse and ugly, like a bag of steel balls crashing around. The mortals looked vigilantly to the left and right, and the monks, unable to keep their thoughts, stood up and walked around with their fists clenched.
The attack of Dao Fire is a heavy blow to mortals. For the Taoist priests, it was crushed and cut, and they were like riding in a boat, and they were suddenly hit by a giant beast in the water. The hull of the ship is sinking, and everyone is at risk.
Shi Hanyuan unleashed all his mana at the same moment, and the other Taoist priests were responsible for spreading the chanting, and his duty was to protect the safety of everyone. Layers of light emanated from the body of the Taoist priest of the moon, enveloping hundreds of Taoist priests as the boundary, no more, no less, as long as the light was still there, everyone would be fine.
Shi Hanyuan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he could block the first round of the offensive of Dao Huogong, it was possible to persevere to the end. While he was busy casting spells, he also had a slight doubt in his heart, the Dao Fire Gong didn't seem to be as powerful as expected, and it was not commensurate with Kun Chao's strength.
The third and final ring of fire spread outward from the mountain peaks dozens of miles away, so faint that it did not deserve to be called flames, and received little attention.
In a small town seven hundred miles away from the valley, hundreds of surviving humans heard the chanting and then felt a blow in their hearts.
Zeng Fu glanced at the baby in his arms and said, "Is the little guy the reincarnation of the disaster star? ”
Xin Youxun leaned close to the Qilin, holding the Qilin horn in her pale hand, trying to squeeze out a smile, "Maybe it's a savior, otherwise how would we be lucky enough to escape from the difficulties?"
Zeng Fu nodded, smiled kindly at the baby, and said softly: "Even if you are a disaster star, I will not abandon you." ”
"Don't you feel nervous in your heart and hot in your body?" Xin Youxun's voice trembled slightly.
"One point, it's not obvious, I just feel that it's getting darker, maybe it's really the credit of the little guy!" Zeng Fu is a mortal, but he has the mentality of a Taoist priest, so he is the least affected by the Dao Fire Gong, but she still holds the baby close to Xin Youxun, "Look at his forehead." ”
Xin Youxun looked down, and a red dot actually appeared on the baby's soft forehead, which expanded under the gaze of the two and turned into a red circle, and the baby stretched out his hands to the sky, and his mouth made an ah-ah scream, as if he wanted to grab something.
The two of them looked up, and there was a huge ring of fire in the sky that was spreading rapidly, it came from seven hundred miles away, and it was a little slower, and it came first.
The baby pointed to the ring of fire in the night sky and giggled, I don't know if it was a coincidence, or if the two were really related, the circle of fire suddenly turned into a sea of fire, which lasted for a short time, but dispelled the excess darkness and heat in the heart.
Zeng Fu and Xin Youxun glanced at each other, they were surprised, what they didn't know was that this night, there was more than one baby with a red circle on their foreheads, and where they were, the fire rings in the air turned into a sea of fire, spreading at an incredible speed, until tens of thousands of miles away, and at the same time, it also brought the sound of chanting in the valley.
On the Wind Blocking Mountain in the Land of Demons, the leader of the demon army, Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons, listened attentively, looked up at the sky, and said to Yang Qingyin, who rushed to help as promised: "Look, I told you that there will be miracles, and there will be more miracles in the future, because some rules between heaven and earth have been broken, and we will be fortunate to see a real war, compared to it, the war between the demon clan and humans is a child's play." ”
