Chapter 2048 Soul Search
"Karma burns the world!"
At the moment when Liang Yan was forced to wait for the king, the City King gave a low drink and fiercely activated the karma fire gourd. The endless karma fire swept away, swallowing Liang Yan like a giant flaming beast.
At the same time, he kneaded with one hand, and the gloomy ghostly aura came out from the back of his head, transforming into hundreds of black spears and shooting towards the sword aura cage imprisoning King Ping.
Among the four great Yama Lords, he has the highest cultivation level and is also the most calm and collected.
Seeing that King Taishan was captured, he knew that he could not let King Pingping fall into Liang Yan's hands, so he activated his magic power to the extreme. While entangling Liang Yan with karma fire, he used ghost magic to attack the sword energy cage, trying to The King of Equality is freed from his prison.
At this moment, Karma Fire transformed into a peerless ferocious beast, and Liang Yan was in its belly!
"Can you stop it?"
Liang Yan sneered and pinched the sword in his hand.
The "Sword Sutra of Nirvana" was used, and the surroundings were completely silent!
The ice sword energy spread silently to the surroundings, and the Karma Fire Beast, which was originally so arrogant, actually started to freeze from the inside!
The City King was horrified, but he knew that he could not retreat. He could only activate the karma gourd with all his strength and hold Liang Yan back as much as possible.
But Liang Yan didn't give him this chance.
The ice sword energy quickly eroded most of the body of the Karma Fire Beast, and then a black sword lotus bloomed on the beast's head!
As the black lotus slowly rotates, the endless fire of karma gradually extinguishes. The remaining flames seemed to be attracted, and poured into the black lotus. In a blink of an eye, they fell into deep darkness, and no more fire could be seen.
Without the obstruction of Karma Fire, Liang Yan was in front of King Pingping in an instant.
At this moment, the City King's spell had just broken through the sword energy cage. King Ping Ping finally got out of the trap. When he looked up, he saw that the evil star had already arrived!
"not good!"
King Ping Ping was shocked and hurriedly activated his magic power. With a finger, black lights rushed towards Liang Yan like meteors.
At the same time, the "evil mirror platform" above his head flickered continuously. Wherever the mirror light passed, wisps of gray silk threads were generated out of thin air, trying to tie up the oncoming evil stars.
Liang Yan grinned: "No one can save you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bolt of thunderous sword light fell from the sky. It was really like thunder coming from the sky and hitting King Ping Ping on the head.
The evil mirror platform was overturned, and the black lights were smashed to pieces by the thunder sword energy.
King Ping Ping's spell was broken and he was injured by the sword energy. His face turned pale and he turned around and ran away without hesitation.
But Liang Yan had been prepared. At this moment, he reached out and grabbed it, and the sword energy that had been scattered flew back from all directions, rolled up King Ping Ping's true spirit, and returned to him in an instant.
"No, don't kill me!"
As soon as King Pingping opened his mouth, Liang Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you."
He activated his magic power and the sword energy surged. King Ping Ping's eyes turned white in his hand, his whole body twitched, and he screamed in agony.
"Fifth brother!"
When the Wheel King saw this scene from a distance, his expression changed drastically. He hurriedly turned the "Wheel Wheel" and activated the escape light, hoping to come and rescue the King of Ping.
But as soon as he started, he was grabbed by the City King.
"We can't save him, let's go!"
"But..." Wheel King looked anxious.
"What can't be done is God's will! Remember, if you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood."
After the City King finished speaking, he waved his right hand.
A cloud of black mist rushed into the sky, and a moment later hundreds of evil ghosts sprang out, each with their teeth and claws bared, and they pounced on Liang Yan.
Although these evil ghosts were not weak in strength, they could not block Liang Yan's sword light. Liang Yan stood still and used the Purple Thunder Tianyin Sword in mid-air, quickly killing all the evil ghosts.
Looking again, the City King has pulled the Wheel King away. The two of them connected the escape light at such a fast speed that their spiritual consciousness was almost unable to sense it in just a moment.
Liang Yan looked at the two people walking away and did not pursue them.
King Ping Ping had already fainted in his hands, and with a thought in Liang Yan's mind, Zhao Xunzhen flew out.
"Take him in."
"yes."
Zhao Xunzhen opened the umbrella as instructed and took the true spirit of King Pingping into the umbrella.
Liang Yan raised his hand and put the evil mirror platform into the Taixu gourd.
"Master, two of the four great lords of hell have been eliminated, why not hunt down the remaining two?"
"The City King and Wheel King are not weak, and they are very familiar with the terrain of Fengdu City. If I chase them down forcefully, I will waste a lot of time."
"Then just watch them escape?" Zhao Xunzhen was still unwilling.
"It doesn't matter if they leave. Doesn't it take ten Yama Lords to gather to enter the 18th floor? We don't have time to defeat them one by one. I believe that the City King and the Chakravartin King will bring other Yama Lords to me, and then we can catch them all! "Liang Yan said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, Zhao Xunzhen stopped asking any more questions.
Based on her understanding of Liang Yan, she probably wanted to set the location of the decisive battle at "Daoshan Prison".
Because the Ice Fire Prison, Evil Mirror Prison, Skinning Prison, and Blood Pond Prison are four parallel areas, it would be a lot of trouble to challenge them one by one. It would be better to attract all the Lords of Hell in these areas to the Sword Mountain Prison, and then you can use Reincarnation. field.
And that's exactly what happened.
Regardless of the realm of reincarnation or Luoshui, they can only be used once in a short period of time, so Liang Yan has to fight to decide the outcome!
After walking in the ghost prison, the two of them had a tacit understanding. Zhao Xunzhen understood what Liang Yan was thinking and immediately said with a smile: "In that case, let's deal with these ghost soldiers first?"
"Um."
Liang Yan nodded.
Lord Yan may not pursue them, but these ghost soldiers will kill them all.
It's not that he is cruel. Although the ghost soldiers have average cultivation, they are really a powerful force when gathered together.
Now that Lord Yama is not in command, the ghost soldiers are in disarray. If he doesn't take this opportunity to kill them all, they will be reconvened by the city king after they escape, which will threaten him again.
"kill!"
Liang Yan was not merciful, he squeezed the sword secret in his hand, and the starlight sword energy fell from the sky and scattered on the battlefield like flying snow.
The sound of howling ghosts and wolves suddenly came from all around.
Without Yan Jun to take command, they lost their backbone. Some wanted to fight to the death, while others were timid and wanted to escape, unable to form a formation at all.
Starlight Sword Qi rushes into the battlefield like a tiger rushing into a flock of sheep, killing countless enemies in an instant.
"Let's go!"
The ghost soldiers shouted loudly and fled in different directions. Some of them fled very fast. In this moment, they were already hundreds of miles away.
But how could Liang Yan let them escape?
With a thought in his mind, the Lingtian Sword flew out, crossing hundreds of miles, leaving a circle of white sword marks!
All the ghost soldiers are trapped within the sword marks and cannot escape. If they get close to the outside, they will be frozen into ice sculptures, and then be shocked by the starlight sword energy and shattered instantly.
A mere hundred miles in radius has become a slaughterhouse.
Liang Yan's face was expressionless, and he made seals with his hands. The sword energy in the circle was flying. After about a quarter of an hour, there was no one left alive in the circle.
All 80,000 ghost soldiers were slaughtered!
Zhao Xunzhen had already received Liang Yan's tacit approval. At this time, he jumped up, suspended over the battlefield, and used his umbrella to absorb the true spirits of these ghost soldiers.
Soon, all the true spirits were absorbed, and Zhao Xunzhen's eyes showed excitement.
This trip to the ghost prison was a great opportunity for her! The more fierce Liang Yan makes trouble, the greater the benefits she will get. If she can devour the true spirit of Lord Yan of the Tenth Palace, it will be unimaginable for her to improve her strength.
Liang Yan seemed to have read through her thoughts and said calmly: "Now is not the time to refine these true spirits. After we rescue a few saints and successfully escape from the ghost prison, I will naturally have time to refine them for you."
"Xunzhen understands."
Zhao Xunzhen nodded and was about to say something else when his eyes stayed on Liang Yan's face.
"What's wrong?" Liang Yan frowned.
"Master, your face." Zhao Xunzhen hesitated for a moment, and finally replied: "There are a few more groupers on your face. Now they have covered your nose and started to spread towards your eyes."
Liang Yan's face became solemn after hearing this, and he hurriedly reached out and touched his face.
Sure enough, as Zhao Xunzhen said, the number of petrified parts of his face increased again!
"Is it because the fight just now aggravated the onset of the magic seal?"
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling very fearful.
"This magic seal is really weird. It can actually change my body silently, even I can't detect it!"
"If this continues, I won't have much time left."
Thinking of this, he raised his head sharply.
"Bring me the umbrella."
"Um."
Zhao Xunzhen handed over the umbrella as promised.
Liang Yan reached out to take it, put the magic power into it, and soon found the true spirits of King Ping Ping and King Taishan, and began to search for their souls.
After a while, his consciousness returned to his original position, and he slowly opened his eyes, but his expression became more solemn.
"What's wrong, Master? Is there a wrong way to open the 18th floor?" Zhao Xunzhen asked.
"The method to open the 18th floor is correct. It is indeed necessary to collect the magic weapons of Lord Yama from the Tenth Palace."
When Liang Yan said this, he paused for a moment and said in a deep voice: "But the strength of Lord Yan of the Tenth Palace exceeded my expectation. I didn't expect that the first-ranked King Qin Guang and the second-ranked King Chu Jiang actually have Ya Holy strength.”
"Two sub-sages!" Zhao Xunzhen also exclaimed.
She knew that with Liang Yan's current strength, he was not weak among the Yasheng, but he was not considered the strongest either.
If you use all your methods, you can barely kill one Asia Saint, but if you want to deal with two Asia Saints at the same time, it is difficult to do it.
What's more, there are six other Yan Jun, plus the ghost soldiers from the ghost prison, this is simply an impossible rescue operation.
"The only information that is beneficial to us is that King Qin Guang and King Chu Jiang have little contact with other Yama Lords and have been in seclusion all year round. Perhaps the news that we broke into this place has not reached the ears of those two people."
"But they will know sooner or later." Zhao Xunzhen was worried.
"Um."
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded and said: "So our only successful plan is to annihilate all six Yan Jun and the ghost soldiers led by them in Daoshan Prison before King Qin Guang and King Chu Jiang get the news. Then sneak into the sixteenth floor and defeat King Chu Jiang and King Qin Guang one by one."
After hearing this, Zhao Xunzhen's eyes widened and he murmured: "This requirement is too harsh. If we make a wrong move, there will only be death waiting for us."
Liang Yan laughed: "This is a ghost prison, a place where prisoners are held in Tiangong City. If you want to pull out the tiger's teeth, how can you do it without taking risks? I have long known that it will be so dangerous, but in order to save the master, this risk must be taken!" "
"Master, you have saved me twice. No matter what decision you make, I will follow you." Zhao Xunzhen said with a solemn expression.
"Um."
Liang Yan didn't say much. He looked at the ice volcanoes on both sides and suddenly said with a smile, "Now that we're here, we might as well make a scene."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and made a sword gesture. The Purple Thunder Tianyin Sword moved to the left, and the Dingguang Sword moved to the right, slashing at the iceberg on the left and the volcano on the right respectively.
Boom!
There was a loud bang, and two sword lights tore the mountains on both sides vertically from south to north!
Countless flames splashed, ice flowers and debris flew, hundreds of miles of mountains collapsed, and the chains, copper pillars, and many other torture instruments that imprisoned the true spirits were all broken at this moment!
As for the jailers guarding the Ice and Fire Prison, they were turned into ashes in the sword light, and no bones were left.
A moment later, the true spirits flew out from the ruins one by one.
After they regained their freedom, they were confused at first, but soon they reacted and cried with joy!
Because these people have experienced countless years of torture, when the pain became the norm, the true spirits have long been numb. They thought that this kind of pain was endless, but they didn't expect that there would be a day of liberation!
Thousands of true spirits knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of Liang Yan.
Seeing this scene, Liang Yan also sighed softly.
Everyone has a primordial spirit and a true spirit. The true spirit is born from heaven and earth, and the primordial spirit is the root of oneself.
Before a cultivator reaches the Tongxuan realm, once the Yuanshen dissipates, it is considered that the body is dead and the Tao is gone, and it is impossible to revive. But if there is a trace of the true spirit left, it can enter the reincarnation world and reincarnate, but after reincarnation, it has a new Yuanshen and a physical body, which is another life.
This is what ordinary people call the past life and the present life.
After the cultivator reaches the Tongxuan realm, he breaks the inner gate and can see his own true spirit. At this level, as long as the true spirit is not extinguished, even if the physical body and Yuanshen die, it is possible to come back to life.
These true spirits in the Ice and Fire Prison did not exceed the Juyuan realm in their lifetime. They are actually dead and can only reincarnate in the reincarnation world.
But now the city lord of Fengdu City is missing, and the entrance to the reincarnation world is closed. These true spirits can only become lonely ghosts. Even if Liang Yan releases them all, after a long time, they will still disappear into thin air and completely disappear from this world.
There was nothing that could be done about it.
"At least, let them suffer less."
Liang Yan sighed in his heart. He was not a saint and did not have any means to reach the sky. He could only do his best.
"There must be prisoners with physical bodies in the depths of the Ghost Prison. Rescuing them all would also be a force. Maybe they could help me resist some of the ghost soldiers."
Thinking of this, Liang Yan did not stop. He raised his hand and patted the Taixu Gourd, taking Zhao Xunzhen in.
He turned around and turned into a beam of light, continuing to fly south along the canyon of the Ice and Fire Prison. This time he did not conceal his breath and used all his strength to drive the light of escape to increase his speed to the fastest.
At the same time, the Purple Thunder Heavenly Sound Sword and the Dingguang Sword followed him and released the imprisoned true spirits on both sides one by one.
