Chapter 759: Shadow of Taotie
Just then, a low roar suddenly came from a distance.
Then, the entire Taiqing Temple began to shake slightly.
Li Yang's parents were awakened and rushed to the window to check the situation.
"Husband! Husband! Look! What is that?" Li Yang heard his mother's terrified voice.
He tried to raise his head and looked out through the cracks in the window.
I saw a huge black shadow moving slowly on the distant skyline.
That thing looked like a walking mountain, and every step made the earth tremble.
What's more frightening is that the surface of the "mountain" seems to be constantly flowing, as if it is composed of countless twisted shadows.
Li Yang's eyes widened, and his heart was horrified.
The breath emitted by the behemoth was chilling, as if it came from the ancient chaos monster.
"What is that...?" Li Yang asked in his heart.
[Origin]'s voice was also solemn: "It looks like a distorted creature... and it's so large, I'm afraid it has reached a certain critical point."
At this moment, the entire Taiqing Temple suddenly lit up.
Countless beams of light rose from the ground, interweaving in the air into a huge light shield, covering the entire Taoist temple.
Li Yang looked at this scene in surprise: "Is this... a defensive barrier?"
[Origin] agreed: "Yes, it seems that Taiqing Temple has been prepared for it."
"A barrier of this scale is probably usually hidden."
As the barrier was activated, the huge black shadow seemed to have noticed something and stopped.
It let out a thunderous roar, and the sound waves even penetrated the barrier, causing the entire Taiqing Temple to tremble.
Li Yang's parents hugged each other, their faces full of horror.
They had obviously never seen such a terrible scene.
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside.
Then, the old Taoist priest opened the door and walked in.
"Don't be afraid, nephew." The old Taoist comforted, "My Taiqing Temple has its own response plan... You are safe here."
Li Yang's father asked tremblingly: "Master Wang, what... what exactly is that?"
The old Taoist took a deep breath and said solemnly: "It is a glutton... one of the most terrifying existences in this chaotic world."
"It is formed by the fusion of countless polluted creatures, and contains extremely powerful and chaotic power."
"But don't worry, my Taiqing Temple's mountain protection formation has been activated, enough to resist its attack."
Hearing this, Li Yang's parents breathed a sigh of relief.
But Li Yang keenly noticed that a trace of worry flashed in the old Taoist's eyes.
It seems... things are not as optimistic as he said.
At this moment, the chaos beast roared again.
I saw it raise its huge front paws and slap the Taiqing Temple's barrier fiercely.
Boom!
The entire Taiqing Temple shook violently, as if a small earthquake had occurred.
The barrier was rippled, but it was not broken.
Seeing this, the old Taoist said to Li Yang's parents: "You rest well here and don't go out. I have to go to preside over the formation."
After that, he quickly left the room.
Li Yang's parents hugged each other tightly, obviously frightened by this sudden change.
Li Yang lay quietly in the cradle, but he was thinking about countermeasures quickly in his heart.
"【Origin】," Li Yang asked in his heart, "Do you think this Taiqing Temple can stop that Chaos Beast?"
【Origin】 was silent for a while, and then replied: "It's hard to say... Taiqing Temple's defense is indeed strong, but the power of that Chaos Beast is also far beyond ordinary."
"If it's just a short-term attack, Taiqing Temple should be able to hold on... But if it's a continuous siege..."
【Origin】 didn't finish, but Li Yang already understood what he meant.
At this moment, another loud noise came.
Li Yang looked through the crack in the window and saw that the Chaos Beast named [Taotie] was constantly attacking the barrier.
Each attack caused the barrier to vibrate violently, and the ripples became larger and larger.
"The situation is not good..." Li Yang murmured in his heart.
[Origin] suddenly said: "Li Yang, I have an idea... Although it's a bit risky, it may be our only chance."
Li Yang immediately became alert: "What idea?"
[Origin] explained: "The Taiyuan Xuanzhang records a special secret method that allows you to temporarily control the power of chaos... which is the basic power that makes up the giant beast."
"If you can get close to the chaos beast, maybe I can influence its behavior and make it leave here."
After listening to this, Li Yang couldn't help but take a breath: "Damn? Are you serious? I'm a baby now!"
[Origin] admitted: "It's really dangerous... But if you don't do this, once Taiqingguan is breached... you will still be in danger."
"Of course, you can try to use your... power called [Legendary Plant], but that power is enough to destroy the galaxy. If it is also distorted... I'm afraid it will cause a more terrible impact than this giant beast."
Li Yang was silent.
[Origin] was right, but he was still a little hesitant to take such a big risk.
Just then, another loud noise was heard.
Li Yang looked up and saw cracks appearing on the barrier.
Apparently, it was about to collapse.
Li Yang took a deep breath and said in his heart: "Okay... you can give it a try."
"But how to get out? I can't move on my own right now..."
"Ah wait, I have something to note."
At this moment, Li Yang suddenly started crying loudly.
His parents immediately ran over and tried to comfort him.
But no matter how they coaxed him, Li Yang couldn't stop crying.
His face turned red, and he looked like he was about to cry himself to death.
Li Yang’s mother was extremely worried, fearing that something might happen to her:
"Xiao Yang must have been frightened by these movements... How about I carry him outside for a walk, maybe he can calm down."
Li Yang's father was a little worried: "Going out? At this time? Don't talk nonsense!"
Mother shook her head: "It's okay, we'll just walk around... Taoist Wang said that as long as we stay within the barrier, we'll be safe."
With that said, she picked up Li Yang and walked out of the room.
Li Yang was lying in his mother's arms, feeling both nervous and excited.
"[Origin]..." Li Yang said in his heart, "You have to hold on to me."
[Origin]’s voice is firm and powerful:
"Don't worry, I'm sure."
Li Yang's mother hugged him and walked carefully in the courtyard of Taiqingguan.
There was chaos all around, with Taoist priests running back and forth, constantly reinforcing the barrier.
In the distance, the roar of the chaotic beast was still heard.
Li Yang used his mother's arms to quietly observe the surrounding situation.
He noticed that there was a huge altar in the center of Taiqing Temple.
The old Taoist priest was standing on the altar, holding a magic weapon and chanting incantations.
Rays of light rose from the altar and poured into the barrier.
"Mom, there..." Li Yang suddenly spoke, pointing in the direction of the altar.
His mother was stunned for a moment and looked at him in surprise: "You...you can speak?"
Li Yang was shocked and secretly screamed, "Oh no!"
It seems that I was too nervous just now and couldn't control it for a while.
But there was no time to explain now. He continued to point in the direction of the altar and said in a baby's unique milky voice:
"It's beautiful there."
Although Li Yang's mother was still a little confused, she still looked in the direction he pointed.
"Yeah, it's really beautiful there..." she said softly, "How about you want to go there and have a look?"
Li Yang was secretly happy in his heart and nodded repeatedly.
His mother hugged him and walked slowly towards the altar...
