Chapter 211 Waiting
After the spell was finished, two talismans were quickly sent out, and thunder and fire were seen intertwined. The eight strong men were immediately blocked by the thunder and fire. In just a moment, wounds appeared on their bodies one after another. However, they ignored the invasion of the talismans, thunder and fire, and after breaking free from the obstruction, they continued to rush towards Li Daoxuan with knives in their hands, with an expressionless face, and their speed did not slow down at all.
It was as if the thunder and fire attack just now had no effect on them and was just a tickle.
Li Daoxuan took a deep breath and realized the power of Yinshan's magic.
Before, I had only heard from the old Taoist priest that the art of summoning spirits was an evil method. It borrowed the body of a living person and asked the spirits to descend upon the body and possess it, thereby greatly increasing the strength of the person's muscles and bones, reducing the perception of pain, and making the person extremely powerful, like a walking corpse, but even worse than a zombie.
When mortals ask gods to descend upon them, they will not be afraid of certain spells, such as spells for exorcising ghosts and demons. Such spells are useless against them.
Although this method is good, it also has its drawbacks. That is, people who are often possessed by spirits usually have a very short lifespan and often do not live beyond the age of thirty.
Therefore, the practice of summoning spirits is prohibited in all famous and upright sects or orthodox religions.
Although some people have inherited this kind of magic, they only use it to save their lives, and will never use it unless it is absolutely necessary.
As for using spiritism on others and using others as tools without restraint, this is what a cult does.
After seeing this art of summoning spirits today, Li Daoxuan was truly enlightened.
However, although it was an eye-opener, he still had to face these eight fierce men.
Punching and kicking these people felt like hitting an iron wall. Even though Li Daoxuan used his Dan Qi to control his fists and feet, he still grimaced in pain.
He covered his hands to dodge the thug's attack. The peach wood sword poking his body was not much different from tickling him.
When he was forced into desperation, he took out two talismans for exorcising evil spirits, but they still seemed to have no effect on the group of men.
Li Daoxuan had no choice but to rely on his agility to dodge the attack.
However, it was difficult for him to dodge the combined efforts of eight people, and he was accidentally stabbed several times, which really made the injuries worse.
"I can't go on like this. I will definitely die here." Li Daoxuan looked at the eight people and felt that if he allowed them to work together, he would die of exhaustion sooner or later.
Looking at the Yinshan Saint Lady again, it was obvious that she was not prepared to attack. She just sat in the sedan chair and watched the show, then quietly drank the tea brought by the maid.
Li Daoxuan was suspicious. Was this Yinshan Saint Lady really that powerful that she was confident that she could defeat him without taking any action herself? Or was this Yinshan Saint Lady deliberately not taking any action out of precaution or some other reason? Or was she constantly exhausting herself?
But he didn't know why, he always felt that this was not the true strength of the Yinshan Saint. It seemed that she was deliberately not using her full strength. Even Kamo Zenyou on the altar could feel it.
But Kamo Zenyou didn't dare to say much, as he was afraid that the woman would suddenly attack him.
Most of the mages of the Yinshan Sect have strange temperaments and unpredictable moods. No one knows what will happen to them in the next second.
Li Daoxuan dodged left and right, and finally managed to break away from the encirclement of eight strong men. He turned around and stepped on the tables and chairs to jump onto the altar. He made sword gestures with his hands and chanted to the seven bamboo swords on the ground: "The Big Dipper slays evil, the seven stars gather together. The swords return!"
The bamboo sword trembled, then flew upside down from the ground of the altar and returned to Li Daoxuan's hand.
He Mao felt relieved as the formation that had trapped him disappeared immediately. Just as he was about to do something, he saw Li Daoxuan throwing out a magic seal, flying straight towards him.
"Xuan Yu Tao Yu Chen Yu Mo!"
When the order was issued, the Dharma seal vibrated.
The fire is burning red, and the eight winds are raising fog.
It moves and stops suddenly, changing with the Qi.
He Maoqianyou looked at the seal in astonishment, and felt eight flames coming at him.
He reacted immediately, hurriedly raised the copper bell in his hand and shook it, and quickly chanted the Yin-Yang Taoist spell: "Tian Peng! Tianzhong! Tiandong! Tianfu! Tianqin! Tianxin! Tianzhu! Tianren! Tianying! Qingyang is the sky! Zhuoyin is the earth! Please protect the gods! Show mercy! Hurry up and obey the command!"
The bell rang loudly and shook in the air. The sound waves spread out and competed with the eight flames, blocking them in mid-air.
Seeing this, Li Daoxuan felt a little relieved.
He used the seal given by the old Taoist priest to temporarily suppress the Japanese wizard, making him unable to do anything evil.
The seal was hanging high, and if Kamo Qianyou had no other way to escape quickly, he could only keep ringing the bell to resist the seal for the time being.
Li Daoxuan stood on the altar, looked at the eight strong men who were chasing him, and threw the seven bamboo swords in his hands towards the eight people.
The bamboo sword was slender and tough. When it fell to the ground, it formed the shape of a seven-star hook. Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang and Yaoguang were drawn on the ground to form a prison, forming a seven-star trap.
Li Daoxuan did not dare to stop for a moment. He had to cast a spell to set up the formation before the eight people stepped out of the sword formation. He saw him quickly pinching the fingers and chanting the spell, forming the fingers across the road while chanting the spell: "The sun rises in the east, with great light. The spirits protect me, and the Qingmen establishes the order. Lu Cun supports me, and it is not said that he is strong. Control Ji Ji, and control Da Kuang. Not beyond the death, so the water ghost town. The three origins fill the body, and the eight gods are the borders. Those who defy me will die, and dare to charge. The Huang Lao law orders, hurry away from the distance. The Northern God Records, forever cut off the ominous omen, hurry up and obey the law! Set up the formation!"
This is the Seven Star Divine Mantra, which is of great use whether used with formations or talismans. If combined with different finger gestures, its uses are even more endless.
After the spell was finished, seven bamboo swords shone brightly. Just as the eight strong men were about to leave the range of the Seven Star Trapping Formation, they saw the seven bamboo swords connected with green light, using stillness to control movement. If they hit the head, the tail would respond, and if they hit the tail, the head would respond, firmly trapping the eight men in the formation.
Seeing this, Li Daoxuan still did not dare to neglect it. These eight strong men were possessed by gods. If they worked together to break the formation, I am afraid that this seven-star trap formation would not last long. He changed his hand gestures again, hooking the middle fingers of his left and right hands together, and clenching the other fingers into fists, forming the Immortal Trapping Rope Technique, and chanted a curse: "Respectfully clear the Sky Net God Zhao Zhang, the Earth Net God Lu Xuan. The five-sided Tian Ding Lishi, the ten-sided guardian gods. Hurry up and cover the evil ghosts that are causing trouble, and put them under the ban of Kui Gang, and do not move! Hurry up and obey the command of God!"
After the spell was finished, the eight people in the formation suddenly became quiet. They all stood there motionless, without any other actions.
Li Daoxuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and he felt his hands and feet going a little weak at this moment.
The effectiveness of the Nine Star Divine Spell Talisman had begun to wane, and his original injuries were beginning to ache.
"It's too late." Li Daoxuan stood in front of the altar, holding a peach wood sword and walking towards the clay doll in the center of the altar. He wanted to destroy the clay doll before Kamo broke free from the seal.
Li Yanming ran all the way and arrived at the east end of the village panting.
He passed through layers of fog and felt the beating of his heart in his body.
He seemed to hear a ghost sneering in his ear, as if something was blocking his way, but the amulet he had carried with him was faintly warm, which made him clear-headed.
He knew that this was the amulet given to him by the young master to protect him from being bewitched by evil spirits.
Walking in the rain, he soon arrived at the place. Passing through the thick fog, he saw Li Laosan chatting with someone not far away.
"Dad! Dad!" Li Yanming called out loudly.
When Li Laosan heard the voice, he turned around and saw that it was his son. A look of joy immediately appeared on his face.
When Li Yanming came up to him, he wiped the rain off Li Yanming's head with his hand and asked, "Why don't you stay at home?"
"Dad, Dad, you..." Li Yanming panted and spoke intermittently.
"Quick! Dad, take people to the village chief's house!"
"What happened?" Li Laosan asked with a puzzled look on his face.
The fog around the village is thinner than inside the village, and the outlines of distant scenery can be vaguely seen.
"The Third Young Master asked someone to stop us! We are going to the village chief's house and smash the things in the backyard!" Li Yanming didn't know what to say and could only state it briefly.
When Li Laosan heard his son's words, he did not hesitate. He knew that his son was smart and clever, and he also knew how calm Li Daoxuan was. His son came to find him in such a hurry, there must be something unusual going on.
Originally, the old village chief suddenly ordered the village to be sealed off, prohibiting outsiders from entering and leaving, and also prohibiting villagers from entering and leaving. Li Laosan had already had doubts, and other villagers who were guarding the village together had already discussed it in private.
"Let's go and visit the old village chief's house first." He raised his hoe and called upon the people around him who were guarding the village together to walk towards the old village chief's house.
Li Yanming rode forward, took out the amulet given to him by Li Daoxuan, held it in front of him, and a group of villagers followed him. Soon they arrived at the old village chief's house. Without waiting for the old village chief's relatives and family members to react, several people had already rushed into the inner courtyard.
Pushing open the door of the main hall in the inner courtyard, Li Yanming found a painting in the hall of the inner courtyard as Li Daoxuan had instructed. Amid the confusion of Li Laosan and a group of villagers, he opened the painting and saw a tunnel entrance. Suddenly, he looked down and saw candlelight coming out from one side of the bottom. It was obvious that there was a tunnel underneath leading to another place.
"Dad! There really is an authentic tunnel! It seems that what the Third Young Master said is right!" Li Yanming shouted, and told Li Laosan to go down quickly.
Everyone in the group looked at each other, and finally Li Laosan took the lead and jumped in.
Walking along the passage, we soon arrived at an empty room.
Li Laosan and several villagers were dazzled. They didn't expect that there was such a place under the old village chief's house.
"Dad! Stop looking! Quickly stick this talisman on the head of the person in the coffin." Li Yanming handed over the yellow talisman. Li Laosan didn't understand what it meant, but still took it and walked towards the bronze coffin.
He came to the bronze coffin, leaned over to take a look, and was immediately shocked.
"This! This is! This is the old village chief's grandson!"
The villagers were all shocked when they heard this. They all gathered around the bronze coffin to examine it, and were surprised why the old village chief's grandson was here.
"What's going on? Why is the old village chief's grandson here?"
"I don't know either. Didn't they say they had buried it long ago?"
"This"
The villagers were talking about it, and Li Yanming was extremely anxious.
He waved his hands and shouted to Li Laosan: "Dad, put the talisman on quickly!"
"Okay! Dad will put it up right away!" Only then did Li Laosan realize what he was supposed to do.
He was holding the talisman and preparing to stick it on the child's forehead, when the child suddenly opened his eyes.
