Chapter 106: The Lord's Danger
A huge suspended mountain emerged from the void, covering the sky above Fortress No. 5.
As the previous feint attack point, the Five Points Fortress was almost reduced to a scorched earth. Its brutality far exceeded that of the defense of Yanshan City. If it weren't for the Cangqiong Peak of Zunwang Mountain that filled the gap in the defense line, this place would have been a ruin.
Luo Ying stood at the node of a fire vein. The soul refining furnace sank and floated in the flames. From time to time, sounds like complaints or piercing ghost howls could be heard from the furnace. The thick black fog that overflowed could not be concealed even by the flames.
The palm-sized Ten Thousand Souls Banner hung above Luo Ying's head. The evil aura turned into a faint gray mist. From time to time, illusory ghost shadows would fly out from the banner and circle around, emitting bursts of strange laughter.
This strange scene made the warriors waiting on the side feel numb and they couldn't help swallowing.
In comparison, soul cultivators seem to be a bit purer.
Luo Ying suddenly opened her mouth and sucked all the black mist that overflowed from the furnace into her stomach, and the aura on her body became even more evil.
A ghost with a hideous face and a terrifying aura flew to the face of a young warrior, as if wanting to get close to him. He was frightened and screamed, dodging everywhere.
"Senior Sister Luo!!"
"Don't be afraid, it's just playing with you." Luo Ying pinched a spell, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner shook gently, and the ghost immediately disappeared.
The soul refining furnace flew up from the flames, and the lid of the furnace slightly opened. Pills wrapped in a gray and resentful aura flew out and fell into the porcelain bottle in Luo Ying's hand.
Afterwards, soul shadows flew out of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and fell into the Soul Refining Furnace, and the treasure furnace sank into the flames again.
"Have you decided?" Luo Ying no longer cared about the Soul Refining Furnace and turned around to look at the few people who had been waiting here.
These people all have one thing in common, disability!
For warriors below the second rank who are unable to regenerate broken limbs, becoming disabled in the war is not a rare thing. They are already very lucky. It is said that three ancestors of the Three Yuan Realm died in this battle alone.
Disability is not permanent. As long as they can reach the second level in the future, they can be reborn by consuming their qi and blood and make their bodies complete again.
"We have already reported this to the elders of the sect, and they have agreed."
Due to the previous turmoil, all major sects have regulations that only warriors below the fourth rank can change their training on their own. Those who change their training without reporting it will be severely punished!
Luo Ying showed an extremely charming smile on her face. When she talked about the storm, it was all caused by her. It was also because of that bold choice that her fate changed.
Luo Ying's facial features are very ordinary, and even more ordinary when put together, but the charm that she inadvertently reveals makes people's hearts flutter.
She was not like this before. No matter where she was, she was a nobody. But since she switched to cultivation, as her cultivation level deepened, her temperament, character, and even her attitude towards life have undergone tremendous changes.
Feeling those evasive glances, the smile on Luo Ying's face became even wider, but the indifference in her eyes never changed. Twisted black shadows flew out of her body and flew towards the crowd.
In a blink of an eye, everyone fell into an illusion. For a moment, demons were dancing wildly, going crazy, howling, crying, attacking randomly, undressing...all kinds of ugly behaviors.
Luo Ying ignored these people. At this moment, ghosts rushed out from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner above her head, turning into a terrifying giant mouth, as if to swallow her. After absorbing a large number of souls and undergoing many blood sacrifices, this Ten Thousand Souls Banner already had nine main souls, and the strength of each main soul was far greater than hers.
As a magic weapon, especially a magical weapon with spirit, the more ferocious it is, the harder it is to control. Once the magic weapon's power far exceeds that of its master, the result is that it will devour its master! !
The magic spells in Luo Ying's hands kept changing, and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner fell from above her head, enlarged to more than ten feet. The howling wind made her long hair behind her flutter, and countless soul shadows kept wandering around her.
The strange laughter was even more terrifying in the cold wind, constantly attacking her mind. The evil spirit stuck to her cheek and soon moved away. The desire to devour was visible to the naked eye, but it seemed to be restricted by something.
Luo Ying spat out a stream of blood, which flew towards the banner and slowly merged into it. Then a faint red light rose, and the murderous aura on the banner became even stronger. However, the main soul in the banner retreated unwillingly.
The Ten Thousand Souls Banner flew up and quickly shrank, becoming the size of a palm again, and finally sank into Luo Ying's sea of consciousness.
"Seven days, this is the second time!" Luo Ying's face was pale and sickly, her breathing was rapid and a little embarrassed, and she quickly took out a few blood pills and swallowed them.
The Ten Thousand Souls Banner had Lord Jiang's restrictions, so it wouldn't have been like this originally. However, in the previous battle, she had used the Ten Thousand Souls Banner to collect too many powerful residual souls. After cleaning up the battlefield, she performed a blood sacrifice, which caused the strength of the main soul in the banner to soar sharply, and it had the ability to bypass the restrictions and affect her.
As a last resort, she had to feed the main soul with her own essence and blood, but this was not a long-term solution.
She was like standing on a cliff, and could fall into the abyss at any time.
But it's impossible for her to give up!
If it weren't for the special period now, it would never have been her turn to use such a powerful magic weapon.
"Even if I become a sacrifice for the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, I won't give up!!" There was a hint of madness in Luo Ying's smile.
“I have to cultivate the Six Desires Demon Soul as soon as possible, and use the Demon Soul to refine the Ten Thousand Souls Banner…” Luo Ying murmured in a low voice as she watched the warrior who was making an ugly scene in the illusion, and her voice finally became so low that it could not be heard.
Lord Jiang’s inheritance is right there, and every sect has a large amount of relevant information. If you want to change your cultivation, why bother looking for her?
She knew very well what these people were thinking. She was the same at the beginning. With a guide, it would be easier to practice, but she did not have the broad-mindedness of the adults to teach everyone.
Luo Ying interrupted the ongoing illusion, and everyone returned to normal one after another. They looked at each other's ugly appearance awkwardly and began to tidy up their appearance in a mess.
"You all have passed the test. From now on, you can practice with me. Remember, don't slack off." At this time, Luo Ying has returned to her original appearance. There is no sign of change, at least on the surface she has recovered.
"Thank you, senior sister. We will work harder and live up to your expectations." The warriors were all surprised. They originally thought that there was no hope this time. After all, their previous performance was too embarrassing and shameful.
"Very good, use these pills for your daily practice. Believe me, you will soon surpass your past selves. The defects in your flesh will not affect your strength."
At this moment, Luo Ying looked like a perfect senior sister who was gentle and caring to her fellow junior students. She also gave each of them two bottles of pills.
She has a good talent in alchemy, otherwise Lord Jiang would not have given her the soul refining furnace. However, the materials she used to make the alchemy are not quite consistent with her current image.
Those who received the favor were even more grateful to Luo Ying. At this time, Luo Ying was the epitome of perfection in their eyes, and they even had a vague idea that they would not hesitate to die for her.
