Chapter 178 The Mysterious Monk Army
In the city lord's palace.
When Yang Che stepped in, he found Tianxie Ziyin sitting upright in the main seat.
The black-robed demon Xiu Shachuo, whose face was covered with tattoos and still had serious injuries, stood respectfully aside.
In addition, there were three Nascent Soul stage old men who stood with their hands down respectfully, silently.
"Then Princess Sha Jin, you couldn't stay?"
Tianxie Ziyin asked with a cold expression.
Yang Che said helplessly: "This Sha Jin has a formation talisman in her hand, but I failed to keep her at the last moment."
"Since she has the formation talisman, she should just run away."
Tianxie Ziyin looked indifferent and indifferent.
At this time, Sha Suo suddenly said worriedly: "Master, that Tao Hua is one of the ten elders of Shahai City. Since she escaped with the formation talisman, she will definitely make a comeback after she and Princess Sha Jin return to Shahai City. By then Our Purple Sky City is really in danger.”
Tianxie Ziyin's expression gradually became serious: "My cultivation has not yet recovered. I originally placed Sha Jin under house arrest to make Shahai City have some scruples, but God's will allowed Sha Jin and Tao Hua to escape. "
Sha Chuo cupped his hands and said: "However, the master has killed the two guardians of the late Nascent Soul, which will also serve as a deterrent. I predict that they will take advantage of the 'tax collection' to ask me again in a year's time." Tiancheng launched an attack."
Yang Che's heart moved when he heard this.
He had heard from the little boy Wei Chen and his sister Wei Shan that every ten years, Shahai City would send people to the major oases to collect the so-called 'taxes', which were full of star-patterned stones.
This entire ancient heritage sand sea is under the management of the ‘Ancient Heritage Alliance’.
The largest force in the Ancient Heritage Alliance is Shahai City.
In a sense, this Shahai City represents the Ancient Heritage Alliance.
As soon as Sha Su finished speaking, the entire hall seemed to be in a depressing atmosphere.
The three Nascent Soul stage old men were the original protectors of the Holy Scorpion City, which are now the protectors of the Purple Sky City. One of the old men always looked like he was hesitating to speak.
Tianxie Ziyin seemed to be aware of the thoughts of these three old men, and asked coldly: "Protector Hong Li, what do you want to say?"
Hong Li was the monk with the highest cultivation level among the three old men, reaching the late Nascent Soul stage. Hearing this, he immediately raised his hands and said:
"Senior, please forgive me for speaking out. The Ancient Heritage Alliance is very scary. It is said that its real core power members are pure descendants of ancient monks.
The younger generation thinks that we can take advantage of the opportunity of Shahai City to send people to collect taxes in a year to ease the relationship with Shahai City. As long as Zitian City is still willing to accept the management of the Ancient Heritage Alliance, I believe Shahai City will not embarrass us too much. "
After Hong Li finished speaking, cold sweat was pouring down his back, fearing that his life would be in danger if he said anything wrong.
Fortunately, Tianxie Ziyin did not show any dissatisfaction after listening to his words.
This made Hong Li feel a little relieved.
At this time, Sha Suo said: "Hong Li, even if Zitian City is willing to ease the relationship with Shahai City, I am afraid that the conditions proposed by Shahai City will be quite harsh. Just like this time, Tao Hua brought two guardians If I wanted to force my way into the 'Purple Sky Secret Realm', I couldn't let them in due to the master's order, so I tried my best to protect the teleportation array. However, the 'Purple Sky Secret Realm' has always been one of the training places for the descendants of these ancient monks, so this Tao. I’m afraid it’s hard to be kind to the flowers.”
After hearing the words of the city lord, Hong Li showed bitterness on his face and wanted to continue to say something, but he held back in the end.
There were some things he knew he could think, but he could never say them.
In the world of immortality, strength has always been respected. Whoever is stronger has the absolute right to speak.
When Hong Li thought about the rumors in the 'Ancient Heritage Alliance' that there were three ancient ancestors who had entered a state of 'suspended death', he felt powerless in his heart.
These three people have reached heavenly cultivation, but their lifespan is about to expire. In order to slow down the passage of lifespan, they use secret methods to enter a state of suspended animation.
If once awakened, no one in this ancient sand sea can be the opponent of these three people.
Thinking of this, Hong Li glanced at his two brothers and sighed secretly.
Now, the three Hong brothers can only take one step at a time.
Yang Che took in all the expressions of these people.
Guessing that the power of the 'Ancient Heritage Alliance' might be far beyond his imagination, even Tian Xie Ziyin had to treat it with caution.
And these three guardians in the Nascent Soul stage obviously have their own thoughts.
After another oppressive silence in the hall, Tianxie Ziyin broke the silence: "Since I dare to take over Zitian City, I will naturally keep Zitian City safe. Yang Che stays, and you all can go down."
Sha Chuo bowed respectfully and quickly led the three Nascent Soul protectors away.
Tianxie Ziyin slowly walked down from the main seat and said: "Yang Che, next I will set up the 'Ocean Protection Formation' outside the Zitian Oasis. With this formation, I am confident that even the ancient relics Even if the three ancient monks rumored to be in the alliance wake up, they can't easily break this formation."
Tianxie Ziyin's tone was still full of unquestionable strong confidence.
After a pause, she continued: "You have been practicing the art of formation restriction with me for a hundred years, right? This time I set up this continent-protecting formation, and you will participate together. If you want to use any rare materials during this period, You have to deal with the formation base materials for me."
When Yang Che heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up with joy, and at the same time, a sense of warmth rose in his heart.
He knew that this was Ziyin's specially prepared opportunity to give him a real practice. In this way, there would be a rapid progress and even a qualitative improvement in the formation restriction method.
Next, the two returned to Jietian Peak in the Purple Sky Secret Realm.
Tianxie Ziyin once again attracted lightning. With the help of the 'Thunder Fire Refining Hall', Yang Che devoted himself to practicing the 'Heaven and Earth Chaos Art' for three months, which provided Tianxie Ziyin with a large amount of ancient god power.
Afterwards, Tianxie Ziyin took Yang Che out of the Zitian Secret Realm and came to the sky above the Zitian Oasis, and began to prepare to set up the 'Oasis Protection Array' in the entire Zitian Oasis.
"Defense arrays are most concerned with the right time and place. Yang Che, look at this Zitian Oasis, which is surrounded by deserts and separated by a moat. There is a rare water spirit vein under this moat, which is also the biggest reason for the existence of this Zitian Oasis. So this king set up this city protection array, and prepared to use this water spirit vein and the endless sand around it as the foundation of the array."
As soon as Tianxie Ziyin finished speaking, she flicked her jade hand, and countless strange golden runes fell along the moat on the desert side.
Yang Che saw that the Hexi area where Wei Chen and his sister once lived was just wrapped in it.
Soon, a huge pale golden cover enveloped the entire Zitian Oasis.
Countless cultivators or citizens in the city sensed this strange scene.
Some of them were surprised, some were confused, and some were shocked.
However, after Sha Ke appeared in time and spread the message to the whole city, saying that it was done by the City Lord's Mansion and would not affect everyone, the citizens or cultivators finally felt relieved.
Yang Che was focused and followed Tian Xie Zi Yin to set up this "protective formation".
While he personally set up the formation base, Tian Xie Zi Yin patiently explained it over and over again, and the way of formation and restriction was also improved day by day, and it could even be said that it was a leap forward.
In a blink of an eye, more than a year had passed.
This day, it was dusk.
In the desert around Zitian Oasis, a mysterious army of cultivators suddenly appeared.
They were almost in a huge circle, just surrounding the entire Zitian Oasis.
