Fu Changsheng's eyes fell on the first piece of information, and his eyes narrowed slightly:
"This kid can't be kept."
Gongsun Wen not only had the idea of destroying the Fu family, but now he also set his sights on him. He was just a new foundation-building person, but he was very bold.
Fu Shaoping said to Qiu Chan who was standing by:
"Qiu Chan, hold the formation."
In order to prevent Gongsun Wen from making any more tricks.
Fu Changsheng's body shook.
After coming down from the Cao Family Mountain, he scanned with his spiritual sense and found that Gongsun Wen's figure was gone, and his breath was cut off.
Obviously.
Gongsun Wen had expected it.
He actually erased the traces in advance.
Fu Changsheng snorted coldly:
"Let you live a few more days for now."
After returning to the Cao Family Mountain.
He came directly to the stone wall that was a hundred feet long underground.
At this time.
The stone wall had disappeared.
What came into view was a long underground passage.
Yu Qingru collected her spell:
"Changsheng, the formation has been broken, you can go down."
Fu Changsheng nodded slightly.
A cloud surrounded the Purple Fairy Tower.
Instantly, a soul-eating insect buzzed and explored the way ahead.
The underground passage was chilly, and faint blue phosphorescence flickered between the cracks in the stone.
At the end of the long stairs.
What came into view was an underground tomb.
The layout of the tomb was octagonal, and each corner was inlaid with a spiritual crystal emitting faint light. There were complex spiritual power patterns connecting the spiritual crystals. On the formation patterns, there were occasional spiritual power fluctuations flashing, as if transmitting some mysterious signal.
In the center of the tomb, there was a silver coffin.
The coffin was forged from star stone.
In the coffin, the corpse of the ancestor of the Cao family lay quietly, and the bones of the corpse showed a warm jade color.
The star power in the coffin was like a silver thread, passing through the magic circle of the tomb and gathering on the corpse.
With the infusion of star power, the corpse seemed to be injected with the source of life. A faint golden light appeared on the bones, and the golden light gradually spread, like the morning glow reflected on the ancient jade.
In the skull of the corpse, two blue lights gradually flickered in the originally empty eye sockets, as if the soul was rekindled.
The breath of the corpse has vaguely reached the critical point of the third level.
The ancestor of the Cao family lying in the coffin seemed to be able to wake up at any time.
Fu Changsheng was surprised:
"It seems that this ancestor of the Cao family is taking a different approach and wants to refine himself into a third-level corpse puppet through ancient methods."
The strength of the third-level corpse puppet is equivalent to the overhaul of the purple mansion.
If it weren't for this beast tide, the Cao family was killed. I'm afraid that in another one or two hundred years, the ancestor of the Cao family's plan could really come true.
Fu Changsheng did not act rashly.
After glancing at the layout and array of the tomb:
"Qingru, can the tomb array be broken?"
"Wait a moment"
Yu Qingru flipped her right hand, and a soul-detecting array disk whizzed out and landed in the air of the tomb. As she pinched the spell, a rapid buzzing sounded on the soul-detecting array disk.
Yu Qingru retracted the spell and turned to look at Fu Changsheng:
"Changsheng, once the array is broken, the ritual of the corpse puppet will be interrupted."
Yu Qingru felt a little pity.
After all.
This corpse puppet is already at the critical point of the third level.
Fu Changsheng did not hesitate at all and said directly:
"Break the array immediately"
They did not know how to refine corpses.
At the same time, it was not clear whether the ancestor of the Cao family in the coffin still retained his consciousness. In addition, there was no way to control the corpse puppet. If the other party broke through the third-level corpse puppet, then they would be dead.
Buzz!
As the arrays around were broken.
The star power in the coffin stopped transporting into the corpse in the coffin.
Although the magic array set up by the Cao family also attracted some star power from the sky to fall, it was generally not enough for the corpse to swallow, so most of the star power in the coffin was swallowed by the corpse:
"What a pity!"
Otherwise.
Such a big coffin.
It would be enough for him to break through to the flesh refining realm of "Nine Heavens Star Art":
"Qingru, engrave the magic array of this tomb."
One day.
They found a way to refine corpses, and perhaps they could refine the Cao family ancestor who was already at the critical point into a third-level corpse puppet.
Fu Changsheng collected the magic spell.
He immediately put the coffin and the corpse into the storage bag.
Coming out of the Cao family's land.
Fu Changsheng and Yu Qingru turned back to the direction of Hanling River. Because only Mo Lan and Yu Lian were guarding Pingshan County, the task of clearing the Tai Chi locusts around the fiefdom fell on Fu Changsheng and the others.
But.
Before reaching Hanling River.
From a distance.
Fu Changsheng saw the distress signal light up in the sky above Pingshan County:
"Oh no!"
The insect tide attacked the mountain!
Half a cup of tea ago.
Pingshan County.
This was originally the fief of the Ping family. After being taken over by the Fu family, the mountain spiritual fields in the fief were mainly used to grow green jade rice, which matures later than red marrow rice.
After the insect tide broke out.
Hundreds of acres of green jade rice that had not yet matured were destroyed.
If the court did not reduce taxes.
For the Fu family, it would undoubtedly be a cold winter.
At the center of the formation in Pingshan County.
Fu Molan and Yu Lian sat cross-legged, one on the left and one on the right.
Both of them were people of few words.
So there was no intention to chat. One took out the robe to weave, and the other was studying puppetry, glancing at the center of the formation from time to time.
Buzz!
Suddenly.
A rapid warning sound came from the formation.
Fu Molan cast a spell on the central magic circle, and with a buzzing sound, the scene outside the mountain came into view.
A hundred feet away from the mountain.
Hundreds of Tai Chi locusts were flapping their wings, with mysterious marks on their wings that looked like Tai Chi patterns, and at this moment, they seemed to be emitting a strange signal.
After a while.
Thousands of Tai Chi locusts swarmed in from all directions, and their number grew rapidly, like a snowball. Soon, they turned into a huge black wave, rushing towards Lingxiao Mountain.
"Insect tides attack the mountain!"
Fu Molan reacted immediately.
A spell was cast on the ancient bell beside it, and the ancient bell rang three rapid bells. After hearing the bells, the disciples of the Zhengzhan Hall who were sitting cross-legged on the six magic array array eyes heard the bells.
He shouted:
"Start the formation!"
Then he saw that they were in a group of seven, stepping on the Star Step, and six of them stood at the six vertices of the regular hexagon. As the skills were running, a star rune lit up on the palms of the six people, and their palms touched each other. The power gathered together and fell on the seventh person in the center with a bang.
An aura that was no less than the quasi-foundation building instantly spread out.
Accompanied by his spell.
With a bang.
A fire python gathered out, swung its tail, soared into the sky, and pounced on the insect tide.
"Squeak squeak squeak"
At the same time.
A sharp hissing burst out from behind the insect tide.
The Tai Chi locust that was about to be buried in the mouth of the fire python actually flapped its wings and deviated from the direction at a very fast speed, and the attack of the fire python missed.
Bang bang bang!
The Tai Chi locust that avoided the fire python pounced on the defensive formation on the mountain like black raindrops.
Every time a Tai Chi locust hits the formation, a small ball of black spiritual power fluctuations will burst out. Although the power of a single Taiji locust is insignificant, tens of thousands of them attack at the same time, and the formation begins to crumble.
Fu Molan, who is at the central formation, saw this scene.
He made a prompt decision:
"Yulian, you hold the formation!"
As he said that.
He flashed.
He rushed out of the mountain gate immediately.
To deal with this insect tide, he must kill the second-level insect general who commands the low-level Taiji locusts behind him.
The moment Fu Molan appeared.
The five insect generals seemed to smell blood, and with a buzzing sound, they turned around and rushed towards Fu Molan, but saw a flash of golden light at their tails.
The sound of breaking through the air sounded.
They actually transformed into golden needles and shot towards Fu Molan's face.
Five second-level insect generals.
Fu Molan did not dare to underestimate the enemy, and the ancient Luo fan in his hand whistled out.
Ding Ding Ding!
The golden needles fell on the Guluo fan, which was ablaze with light. Most of the golden needles were blocked, but there were still more than a dozen that were still moving forward.
Fu Molan's pupils shrank.
The Guluo fan was a second-level top-grade magic weapon, indestructible, but it could not stop the golden needle magic of this second-level insect general.
Fu Molan pointed at the dark-patterned thunder bamboo tripod floating in front of her.
One by one, dark-patterned thunder bamboos appeared.
Ding ding ding!
The golden needles collided with the thunder bamboos.
The thunder bamboos disappeared.
The golden needles also disintegrated.
Fu Molan's spell changed again, and the dark-patterned thunder bamboo tripod trembled violently. The second-level insect general who was rushing over had his eyes flashed, and was instantly pulled into a bamboo forest.
"Squeak squeak squeak"
The second-level insect general sensed something was wrong.
He immediately flapped his wings again, and the mysterious runes on the wings flashed, but he saw that the first-level Tai Chi locusts that were originally attacking the mountain turned around and swarmed towards Fu Molan.
Tens of thousands of Taiji locusts.
Half of the sky was covered.
It was a sea of black.
Fu Yongqi, who was at the center of the formation, saw this scene and his face changed.
Surrounded by such a swarm of insects.
The hall master is in danger!
He immediately fired a Taiyan cannon in his hand, which soared into the sky and exploded with a rumble.
The brilliant five-color spiritual light dyed the sky into a five-color glow.
This is the family's distress signal.
If any of the nearby Fu clan members saw it, they would definitely come to support.
Yu Lian, who was at the center of the formation, saw Fu Molan trapped and wanted to go out to help, but when she looked closely, she saw a swarm of insects swarming in not far away.
Dense and endless!
This wave of insects seemed to be determined not to give up until the mountain gate was captured today!
Once she left the formation.
None of the clansmen who stayed in Pingshan County would survive:
"What should we do?"
When Yu Lian was young, she had a strange disease and was trapped in the inner house. She was well protected by Cai Xiangu. Over time, she developed a character that didn't like fighting.
Even though she had broken through to the foundation building stage.
But she had no experience in fighting enemies, and was said to be dealing with the current predicament. However.
Reason told her.
At this moment.
She must not leave the mountain protection formation.
"It's over!"
Fu Yongqi, who was stationed in one of the six formation eyes, saw this scene and his scalp tingled. They had entered the Ten Thousand Mountains for many years, but this was the first time they encountered such a situation.
Many disciples had already felt desperate.
Once the hall master died in battle.
Relying on them, they could not resist the attack of the insect tide for long.
Critical moment.
The captains of the six teams said coldly:
"Don't forget the motto of our Conquest Hall. Never give up until the last moment. Cheer up. Now the insect swarm has no insect general to command. We must weaken their power as much as possible, otherwise the hall master's efforts will be in vain!"
"Yes!"
Can be selected into the Conquest Hall.
They are not the cowardly ones. Those who can become the captains of the Battle Hall have experienced the test of life and death. Obviously, they can remain calm even in such a dangerous situation!
This is the purpose of the establishment of the Battle Hall in the tribe.
Raise troops for a thousand days and use them for a moment!
Now is the time to show their strength.
With the encouragement of the six captains, the battle formation was re-condensed, and the fire pythons condensed and rushed towards the swarming insects.
At the same time!
Fu Molan was drowned by the insect tide.
But saw.
With a bang!
A ball of bright white light exploded.
The air around them crackled a few times, and frost appeared.
The group of insects that originally surrounded Fu Molan turned into ice sculptures in an instant.
"Explode!"
Accompanied by Fu Molan's cold snort.
Bang bang bang!
One by one, the Tai Chi locusts fell to the ground.
Even the five second-level insect generals before were not spared.
"Bone Spirit Cold Fire!"
Yu Lian saw this scene from afar.
His eyes showed excitement.
Molan is not dead!
The disciples of the Battle Hall saw this scene.
Fanaticism flashed in their eyes. As expected of their Battle Hall Master, he was extraordinary.
"Buzz!"
However.
Killed a group of insects.
Another group immediately rushed up fearlessly.
And.
What made people's scalps numb was.
The corpses of the group of Taiji locusts killed on the ground had been devoured, and ten second-level insect generals were born at once. Although the second-level insect generals were the weakest after breaking through for more than ten breaths.
But at this time.
They were surrounded by dense insects.
They couldn't spare any hands to deal with them.
At this time.
Under the wings of the rejuvenated second-level insect generals, the Taiji locusts that had been attacking without any rules actually buzzed and gathered into a long sword of dozens of feet in the air.
The power contained in the long sword is no less than any third-level spiritual treasure!
Under the control of ten second-level insect generals.
There was a whistle.
He chopped down at Fu Molan in mid-air.
To catch a thief, first catch the leader.
This group of Taiji locusts is becoming smarter and smarter.
With a click!
The long knife fell.
The ancient Luo fan and the dark pattern thunder bamboo tripod blocking Fu Molan's body made two clicks. They were shattered one after another, and the long knife continued to move forward, slashing at Fu Molan's forehead as fast as lightning.
"Hall Master!"
The people in the Zhengzhan Hall shouted!
Once this knife falls.
I'm afraid Fu Molan will have no chance of survival.
Critical moment.
Fu Molan's face was calm and composed. Although her breath was locked, her body retreated repeatedly, and in the opposite direction of the mountain gate, obviously trying to divert the insect tide as much as possible.
At the same time.
Both hands quickly pinched the seal.
The bone spirit cold fire floating in front of her banged.
Transformed into a shield.
Ding!
The long knife fell on the bone spirit cold fire shield.
Thousands of sparks flew.
The two of them were unable to hold on.
At this moment.
Dozens of second-level insects buzzed and sank into the long sword. The original balance was broken instantly, and the bone spirit cold fire shield exploded with a bang.
The long sword pointed directly at Fu Molan's forehead.
At this moment.
Buzz!
But a small purple sword pierced through the middle of the long sword with a slash.
The long sword was actually cut in half!
"Roar"
The extremely cold demon chant turned into a circle of sound waves that enveloped the broken long sword.
The long sword trembled slightly and turned into a Tai Chi locust in an instant. Most of the Tai Chi locusts were directly shattered and fell to the ground.
The remaining part had not yet reacted.
Then it was submerged in a sea of fire.
Sizzle.
A large area of Tai Chi locusts was charred and fell to the ground.
The corpses of the insect tide piled up into a small hill.
"Squeak"
It looked bad.
The ten second-level insects merged again.
At this time, it actually condensed into a Tianxuan Halberd, but just as it was condensed into shape, it was completely submerged by the sound of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire.
At the same time.
A melodious flute sounded.
The Yueling Qiubai flute in the mouth of Qiu Chan, which was suspended in the air, turned into flying knives one by one, piercing through the bodies of the second-level insect generals.
Bang bang bang!
Ten second-level insect generals fell to the ground.
Without the control of the insect generals.
The surviving first-level Taiji locusts, who were in a daze, began to devour the corpses of their kind on the ground eagerly.
However.
This time.
They were just promoted to second-level insect generals and were killed on the spot by Fu Changsheng.
A catastrophe.
Because of Fu Changsheng's arrival, it was solved!
When the disciples of the Zhengzhan Hall saw this scene, they immediately had infinite admiration for Fu Changsheng in their hearts. The power of the head of the family was unstoppable. With such a head of the family.
Their Fu family would definitely be able to be promoted to the eighth rank, and even the seventh rank was possible.
Just now, the battle.
Fu Molan was also sweating, and knelt down and saluted:
"Fortunately, the head of the family came in time, otherwise the fiefdom of Pingshan County would not be able to be defended today."
"We are one family, so we don't have to talk about different things."
Fu Changsheng blamed himself a little:
"I didn't think it through. The mountain protection formation of the fiefdom of Pingshan County is not of high level, and it is not to attract the power of the stars. The pressure of defending the mountain is much greater than that of Luofeng Mountain in Yunshan County and Anyang County. I should let Master Yu or an old-fashioned formation master like Qingru accompany you to guard this place."
Yu Lian was just guarding the formation.
When fighting just now, she almost didn't know how to use the formation to fight.
Fu Molan shook his head and said:
"Master, I overestimated my strength."
At first.
It was she who volunteered to come to guard Pingshan County.
at this time.
Yu Lian, who was in the center of the formation, also came out of the mountain, with guilt and self-blame on her face: "In the battle just now, my daughter-in-law was unable to cope with it, so I asked my father to punish me."
This comes from the heart.
If my father hadn't appeared.
The consequences would be disastrous.
Fu Changsheng frowned and said:
"Based on experience, don't do it again next time. You will follow me back to the fiefdom in a while. This place will be guarded by Qingru and Mo Lan."
"Yes, father"
Yulian hurriedly agreed. Perhaps she was nervous, but she suddenly retched.
Fu Changsheng saw the battle and said hurriedly:
"Yulian, are you pregnant?"
"Reporting to my father, I am just one month pregnant. I originally wanted to hold the fetus firmly in place before proceeding."
Speaking of the back.
It's almost inaudible.
Fu Changsheng frowned even more tightly.
Yu Lian is obviously over thirty, but she behaves like a child. She is pregnant. She should have mentioned it in time when assigning tasks.
This is the first child of their eldest grandchild.
but.
As a father-in-law.
He couldn't say much.
After cleaning up the battlefield.
This time, a total of thirty second-level insect general demon pills were harvested.
It is equivalent to 1,500 court merit points. Adding the more than 500 he had before, it has reached 2,000.
This time.
The Fu family is very hopeful that they can collect 20,000 imperial merit points before the beast tide ends!
Fu Changsheng gave Fu Mo Lan a few words and left the millipede mother and three second-level soul-eating insects behind to guard Pingshan County for Mo Lan.
This way.
They have six foundation-building troops guarding the six formations.
Use the mountain guard formation.
It can still handle the previous insect wave attacks.
When turning around.
But a familiar mechanical voice sounded in his mind:
"bite"
