Chapter 114 Immortal Body

As the nominal source of this disaster, Hanba's appearance in the world will naturally cause strange phenomena.

The fire energy rose and the earth veins vibrated. Whether it was the group of cultivators in Liuxian Mountain or Chu Tai and others standing in the air, they could all feel the earth shaking slightly.

At the same time, a vast aura carrying turbid fire was constantly brewing and accumulating underground, like an active volcano that was about to erupt at any time.

With the help of many Dao Fruit fragments and being good at geomancy and qi-reading, Chu Tai immediately noticed something was wrong. He adjusted the formation and gave a reminder.

"Be careful, the drought demon is coming!"

As soon as the words fell, rolling heat waves suddenly appeared on the ground, and boiling water vapor was like clouds rolling on the surface.

Taoist Cang Xuan, who had been prepared, held the dragon ball in his hand and swung his long sleeves. Water vapor gathered from all around, and white waves were like swimming dragons, sweeping away the people in the steaming land.

Immediately afterwards, countless cracks were seen tearing apart the surface of the earth, and even more intense heat waves surged up.

The people who were originally screaming in the waves vaguely saw the vegetation in their hometown withering and catching fire at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The small canals that were washed out by days of rain have dried up, and the fields have cracked and become desertified.

The few people and creatures who did not have time to leave were baked into dead wood and ashes by the heat wave, and were completely destroyed.

The original shouts of "walk the dragon" and praying for heaven's protection turned into shouts of thanks to the Dragon God and Rain God for their help.

But Chu Tai and others standing in the air frowned even more tightly. In their eyes, the moisture above the land where the drought demon appeared had disappeared, and the endless breath of drought and restlessness was not expelling, but plundering the surrounding moisture.

"Flood? No, it's not just absorbing water vapor, it's also cursing in all directions. The hot air below is also cursing the internal organs and blood. Anyone who enters will feel as if their internal organs are burning, their blood is drying up, and even their souls will become weak."

Chu Tai frowned slightly, not quite understanding this operation. The only thing that was certain was that under the influence of the opponent's principles, that piece of land had become a wasteland full of curses.

"Fellow Daoist Jingguang."

Chu Tai realized something was wrong and shouted, and the Goddess of Pure Light stepped forward and gently plucked the strings of the pipa with her fingers.

The sound of the pipa, which should have been clear and bright, now sounded like a drumstick, hitting the drumhead of the celestial drum above the nine heavens.

The heavy sound of drums echoed in all directions, dark clouds collided, and dozens of silver flying snakes with spreading branches and bared fangs and claws fell from the sky and gathered at the place where the law of drought appeared.

Lightning gathered, thunder echoed, and thousands of thunders roared without any chaotic explosion, giving people a wonderful feeling of Buddha preaching and Bodhisattva teaching. Above the arcs of electricity flying in the sky, there seemed to be holy lotus blooming.

The fingers of the Goddess of Pure Light kept changing, like a butterfly flying back and forth on four strings. The lightning in the dark clouds was constantly being drawn down, and between the interlacing thunderbolts, there seemed to be a phantom of a Buddha appearing in the air.

"The Heavenly Drum Wonderful Sound Sutra? No, this method of manifesting thoughts should be the Great Brahma Thunder Sound Heart Sutra. As expected of a Buddhist, he is so creative in showing his holiness in front of such people, and he can use thunder magic like this..."

Chu Tai stared at the lightning below, the sound of the pipa echoing in his ears. While silently analyzing some of the mysteries in it, he also roughly guessed the method of practice of the Pure Light Goddess.

"Although this method is mysterious, it is not a proper way to kill. I am afraid it cannot suppress the drought demon..."

Just as this thought came to mind, another dull roar like thunder was heard, and all the pure and holy aura was dispelled.

The ground suddenly exploded into the air with a fiery column of fire. Many liquefied soil and gravel exploded in the column of fire, and scattered all over the sky with the burning wind, like a meteor shower. In the column of fire, another figure rushed out, with sparks all over the sky behind him, dyeing half of the sky a fiery red.

"Crack!"

The first thing Hanba did when he appeared was to attack the Goddess of Pure Light.

The scorching wind shattered the dark clouds around, and a cyclone with strong suction force condensed in the center of the five open fingers, absorbing the surrounding moisture in wave after wave, and at the same time intercepted all the changes of the Pure Light Goddess, cutting off her possibility of escape.

"Don't let him leave!"

Chu Tai turned the flag in his hand, and the others reacted one after another. The force of Liuhe Subduing Demons was formed, which also blocked the possibility of Hanba returning to the ground.

The Goddess of Pure Light looked at the flames burning on the body of Hanba. In her eyes, that was also the boundless fire of karma. A hint of anger flashed in her soft brows. Her five fingers slid quickly across the pipa, and the continuous sounds of the pipa were as rapid as a sudden rain.

Bursts of lightning exploded on the body of Hanba, and then the thunder gathered from all directions and enveloped Hanba again.

Hanba sneered and completely ignored the method of the Pure Light Goddess. He did not even look at the falling lightning.

He grabbed the goddess' neck with his five fingers and was about to absorb her energy with a sneer when he suddenly frowned: "She escaped?"

The celestial being in his hand turned into a withered lotus. Ten feet away, a golden lotus blossomed, and the goddess of pure light walked out of it with a normal expression. The sound of the pipa started again, and the strong impact forced Hanba to retreat several feet.

"Everyone, be careful. This evil Hanba has already achieved immortality. Ordinary magical powers are useless to him."

Chu Tai was shocked when he heard this, and his original thoughts about Hanba were immediately changed.

Chu Tai, who inherited both the Jinhua Sect and the Yinjing Sect, knew very well that although immortality was one of the characteristics of Hanba's fifth-grade achievement, there was a huge difference between achieving full success and not achieving full success.

It is just like refining a magic weapon. As long as the refinement of form and quality is not completed, the characteristics of the magic weapon itself will still be easy to be targeted. But as long as the refinement of form and quality is completed once, it can initially get rid of the changes of the five elements.

When applied to Hanba, his resistance to many thunder and Buddhist methods increases dramatically.

He pinched his fingers to activate the flags, causing the six combinations to change, and chanted: "Chou advances, Mao retreats, Si hides, Wei is stable, You follows Mao, Hai moves with Chou. Don't think about killing it, think of a way to trap it first."

At the same time, Chu Tai communicated silently with Taoist Mu Jing and others in his heart. The aura of the two flags in front of him interacted with each other, and they were ready to be replaced and moved.

Hanba, who had fallen into the Liuhe Demon Subduing Formation, looked at the restraints gradually forming around him. He stretched out both hands, bent his five fingers into claws, and tore violently to the left and right!
With this tear, the changes in the Liuhe Formation came to a temporary halt. Then, the many mysterious energies generated by the operation of the formation were torn into pieces like thin paper, and the army was completely defeated.

But Chu Tai had anticipated this. He waved the Golden Danxia Banner, and the incomparably hot red fire Danxia golden light fell. The red clouds in the sky slightly hindered the advance of Hanba. Then he changed his hand gestures and chanted: "Chou hides, Mao moves forward, Si is stable, Wei follows, You retreats, Hai follows, change the formation."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Chaoxi disappeared into the void and hid behind another person. Yin energy rose and merged with the Seven Yin Evil-Removing Banner beside Chu Tai. Taoist Mu Jing and others on the other side also sacrificed their own magic weapons. With the help of Wu Chaoxi, the Five Elements Formation was embedded in the Liuhe.

Originally it was just a simple Liuhe blockade, but with the addition of the Five Elements circulation, it not only greatly released some of Hanba's anger, the rotating Five Elements energy also turned into a viscous force field that flowed within the formation, stabilizing the surrounding void while firmly suppressing Hanba's changes.

Realizing that something was wrong, Hanba tried to use the same trick again, but the thick and sticky mysterious power around him made the magic power spreading out of his body disappear without a trace like a drop in the ocean.
