Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 292: The Mantis Catches the Cicada, Who is the Mantis and Who is the Cicada
Shang Lu and Lu Yang nodded at the same time, their expressions solemn.

There is something strange inside the witch temple, so we definitely can't stay here any longer.

Otherwise, not only would they fail to save the remaining soul of the mountain ghost, but even their own lives would be in danger.

But the two also had a problem.

"How can we move the battlefield to another place?"

"We are definitely being watched now. Let alone leaving the witch temple, even the slightest movement will alert the enemy."

"The skills I learned in the Discipline Department are not something that these incompetent people who have surrendered to the demons can see through." Lu Dao snorted coldly, and then said: "I plan to do this..."

Although he had cast the spell, he still waved and asked Shang Lu and Lu Yang to come closer.

He lowered his voice and told his plan.

Shang Lu and Lu Yang listened very carefully and made suggestions based on the plan...

At the same time, two pairs of eyes were staring closely at the room where the three people were in the dark.

"What are they discussing in the room?" One of the men with a pair of sinister eyes couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"do not know."

Another pair of larger eyes answered, with a cold and anxious look in their eyes.

"Don't know? You didn't place spies in Lu Dao's house?"

"I did. But as soon as Lu Dao entered the room, he used witchcraft to block the sight and hearing. I was afraid that he would notice something, so I didn't let my spies do any further investigation."

"Did they discover something? I think we should just do it now..."

Before the sinister little eyes could finish their words, they were interrupted by their companions.

"No! This concerns the immortal king's soul, we must be cautious and not be careless!
Those two wizard academy students are fine, but Lu Dao is quite powerful and cunning!

They gathered in the house, most likely to be thinking about how Shang Lu should guard against the Immortal Lord coming to take back His remaining soul, and they should not be suspecting us.

Wait a little longer, until all the witch formations are activated, then we can take action.

This way, even if they are exposed, we can kill them all before they tip off the Witch Academy! As for us, we only need to prepare a backup plan and frame someone else to clear ourselves of suspicion!"

The sinister little eyes snorted, "Why bother with so much trouble? Even if we are exposed, we can escape to another country! As long as we have the blessing of the Immortal Lord, we can improve our cultivation and make breakthroughs all the way. No matter which country we go to, we will be guests of honor."

The vicious big eyes said: "It is better not to expose it if possible. At least now, this identity is very useful to us, and it can also help the Immortal Lord avoid the pursuit of the Witch Academy.

Only when the Immortal King is safe can we receive his protection and blessing."

"That's true... Wait, why is it foggy? No, there's fog only in the backyard, not anywhere else. Lu Dao and the others are casting a spell!"

Two pairs of eyes hidden in the darkness showed surprise.

"What's going on? Who is casting spells in the witch temple?"

A moment later, Xin Yu appeared in the backyard, made some hand gestures to disperse the fog around him, and shouted at the same time.

"Witch Xin, don't be nervous. It was me who cast the spell and set up the formation, stirring up the surrounding weather."

Lu Dao's figure appeared in the fog.

He came to Xin Yu and explained seriously: "Tonight, there is a high possibility that a monster will attack. I have to be fully prepared."

After a pause, he asked again: "Have all the witch formations in the temple been activated?"

"Everything has been activated, but it will take some time for it to take full effect," Xin Yu replied.

Then he frowned and said, "Brother Lu, aren't you being too cautious? What kind of monster dares to come to the witch temple and cause trouble?"

"Caution is the boat."

Lu Dao turned around and warned the two students in the Witch Academy who were awakened by the fluctuations of witch energy in the yard, "Something is likely to happen tonight, so you should all be alert."

The two witch academy students quickly crossed their hands in response.

They also received a mission and came to help.

The person who contacted them was Xin Yu.

Even their specific tasks were issued by Xin Yu on behalf of the great witch Zhongli.

If Xin Yu is really the traitor, then it is not surprising that Zhongli Dawu and others have not been able to catch the mountain ghost.

Even the search plan was formulated with the participation of an insider, so it would be strange if we could catch the mountain ghost!
The fog did not last long in the yard.

After a moment, it disappeared without a trace.

Inside the yard, there were several more fluctuations of magical power, which gradually faded and disappeared.

Xin Yu looked around, but couldn't figure out what Lu Dao had planned.

At the same time, Shang Lu and Lu Yang were also making arrangements in the yard.

They didn't carry Xin Yu on their backs.

Lu Yang set up a sword formation, while Shang Lu used crossbows, steel needles, darts and other tools to set several traps in the yard.

The sword formation was still acceptable to Xin Yu, but the traps set by Shang Lu made him laugh.

Everyone is playing with spells and talismans, but you are still messing around with hidden weapons, which is a bit cheap.

As for the two students from the Witch Academy, when they saw Shang Lu and Lu Yang doing this, they also used their own skills to set up a formation in the yard.

And all of this was seen clearly by the eyes in the dark.

After everyone had finished their work, Lu Dao gave the order for them to return to their rooms.

Don't stay outside and alert the enemy.

Judging from the situation, Lu Dao seems to not only want to guard against the monster's attack, but also wants to capture the monster and torture it to get more clues.

Shang Lu took Heiyun to the room prepared for him.

When he was about to enter the house, the old gatekeeper stopped him.

"Witch officer, here are the pasta and chicken eggs you asked me to prepare."

The old man brought a bowl of steaming noodles to Shanglu, with a few eggs on top.

"Thank you old man, I'm sorry to bother you."

Shang Lu took it and thanked him.

Heiyun came closer and opened his mouth to eat, but was slapped by Shanglu.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Go back to your room and eat. Am I going to snatch your food?"

The old man turned around and said to Lu Dao and Lu Yang, "Two witch officers, there are some noodles and eggs in the pot. Do you want to eat some? Have a snack to fill your stomach."

"Thank you, old man. I don't want it." Lu Dao shook his head and declined, then turned and went back to his room.

Lu Yang also said: "I don't want it either. I don't have the habit of eating so late."

The old man asked the two witch academy students again, and they both said they didn't want to eat, so he left.

Shang Lu entered the house and just closed the door when Hei Yun was about to peek out again.

As a result, the speed of Shanglu was even faster than it.

He buried his head directly in the basin and started slurping noodles and eating eggs.

Even the black clouds were shocked.

Damn it, you are really trying to steal food from a horse?!
It was anxious and tried to grab it hurriedly, but was pushed away by Shanglu again.

Just as I was about to call out, I heard a gentle female voice.

"There is a poison in the noodles. You can't eat it."

Heiyun was no stranger to this voice.

Since following Shanglu, it has heard this sound many times, but has never seen anyone.

Even so, Heiyun knew that the voice belonged to the mistress of the house.

His status is higher than that of his master Shanglu!

It understood what the woman said and was shocked.

Is there a Gu in the noodles?

That's really inedible!
However, seeing Shanglu eating so happily, Heiyun still felt a little unwilling.

He wanted to kick Shanglu, but he didn't dare.

It could only snort and curse in its heart: Eat, eat, eat, aren't you afraid of the bugs making trouble in your stomach!
Soon, the whole bowl of noodles was eaten up by Shanglu.

He put the empty basin outside the door and deliberately wiped his and Heiyun's mouths.

Back in the room, Shang Lu practiced Dragon and Tiger Power, waiting for Lu Dao's signal. His five internal organs were working at full capacity, transforming the noodles and poison he had just eaten into blood and Qi to provide Shang Lu with what he needed for practice.

In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.

The Wu Temple in Feiwu County returned to silence again.

At this time, a dark cloud covered the moon in the sky.

At this moment, several trees in the backyard moved.

On the tree trunk, there were actually many strange red flowers blooming.

The shapes of these flowers are like human faces, and the mouth is where the pistil is.

Puffs of smoke spewed out of the human-faced flower's mouth and quickly faded into colorless and odorless air in the yard.

But in fact, the smoke flew towards the guest room silently and quickly, and penetrated through the gaps in the doors and windows.

Lu Dao sat cross-legged on the couch, as if he was practicing martial arts.

Lu Yang opened the sword case and wiped and sharpened the sword inside, carefully and seriously, as if he was wiping his fellow Taoist's skin.

In Shang Lu's room, Hei Yun had already fallen asleep in the corner, but he was still in the room, practicing his skills and training his body.

As for the two witch academy students, although they were sitting upright in the room and trying hard to stay alert, they were starting to feel sleepy little by little.

The colorless, odorless and invisible smoke was completely unnoticeable and drifted quietly into the noses of several people.

No one noticed this.

Two quarters of an hour later.

As more and more smoke penetrated into their bodies, everyone, including Lu Dao, fell into a deep sleep.

During this process, Lu Dao still noticed something unusual.

He wanted to make a loud sound to warn and expel the sleeping poison in his body.

Unfortunately, the sleeping insect that had entered his body had already grown into a large size.

Although he noticed something was wrong, he was unable to respond.

In the backyard, the sound of snoring rose and fell one after another.

But still no one appeared in the backyard.

But a few spider silks flew in from the darkness, along the gaps in the doors and windows, into Lu Dao's room, and quickly reached into his sleeves.

"Bang bang bang..."

There was a loud bang, and the spider silk that had penetrated into Lu Dao's sleeve was shattered by an invisible force.

But that didn't stop the spider silk.

More spider silk poured into the house like a flood.

This time, they did not crawl into the sleeves, but directly stripped Lu Dao's clothes off and wrapped them up into a ball.

Immediately afterwards, spider silk pried open the window and dragged Lu Dao's clothes out.

Then the window was closed, and all the spider silk left the room like the receding tide.

If Lu Dao's clothes had not been taken off, no one would know what had happened in this room.

Soon, Lu Dao's clothes were brought into Hou Tu Palace by spider silk.

At this moment, there was no candle in the hall, and it was pitch black.

Two figures stood in the dark temple.

One of them raised his hand and caught the clothes that were wrapped into a ball by the spider silk.

After the clothes were obtained, the spider silk immediately retreated and was collected into the shrine and the bodies of the golden boy and jade girl.

"Didn't you say that Lu Dao was as cunning as a fox? He fell into our trap and suffered a loss."

The man who got the clothes had sinister eyes. He turned around and smiled triumphantly at his companions.

"The people from the Discipline Department of the Witch Academy are just like this. They were easily manipulated by us."

Then he pinched his fingers and chanted a spell, reached into his sleeve, took out a sheep-headed soul flag, and asked, "Is this the thing?"

"Yes, it is this one. The Immortal Lord said that a wisp of his soul was taken away by Lu Dao's soul flag."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let the Immortal Lord know immediately and ask Him to come and take back the remaining soul while the group of people in the back are fast asleep. We can then make subsequent arrangements, clear our suspicion, and continue to stay here to act as spies for the Immortal Lord."

After a brief exchange, the two lit candles and burned incense in front of the shrine dedicated to Hou Tu Niangniang.

The candlelight is dim and the incense is curling.

The scene inside the shrine began to distort and deform.

The statue of Hou Tu Niangniang, which was supposed to be a clay sculpture, turned into a bloody mess!

It was actually a spiritual body of flesh and blood!
The seven arms on its back were also made of flesh and blood and were sewn to its back.

The eyes above were also dug out from real people's eyes and buried in these palms.

After the statue of Hou Tu revealed its true appearance, the golden boy and jade girl beside it also changed their appearances.

But they were two monsters with human heads and spider bodies!

I don’t know if the spider has become a spirit and has cultivated itself into this form.

Or maybe they were originally human beings, but under the nourishment of desires and ambitions, and the erosion and pollution of evil spirits, they changed into these monsters that are neither human nor ghost.

The shrine in the Hou Tu Temple should be some kind of magical device that can conceal the truth inside the shrine, making it impossible to tell.

Even Shang Lu, whose eyes were blessed by the liver god, could not see anything strange in the shrine.

And Lu Dao, the wizard officer of the Discipline Department, was actually deceived by it.

Even the great wizard Zhongli couldn't see any clues in the wizard temple of Feiwu County.

This shows the mysterious and strangeness of this shrine.

As the two burned incense and prayed, a wisp of the mountain ghost's spirit descended upon the strange and bizarre flesh and blood spirit.

It urged impatiently in a sharp and weird voice: "Have you got Lu Dao's soul flag? Where is it?"

"Look, Immortal Lord, isn't this it?"

A figure with sinister eyes held up the sheep-head soul flag in both hands and presented it on the altar in front of the shrine.

"Yes, that's it! Lu Dao used it to steal a strand of my soul when I was not paying attention! You did a great job. As a reward, I will grant you one wish..."

The flesh and blood spirit body was so excited when it saw the Sheep Head Soul Flag that its seven arms danced in unison and its eyes in the palms shed tears of blood.

The blood and tears were like poisonous snakes, quickly climbing up the Sheep Head Soul Banner and tearing it into pieces.

But no residual soul flew out from the sheep-head soul flag.

Instead, after the Sheep Head Soul Banner was torn into pieces, a burst of lightning and fire suddenly jumped out and attacked the flesh and blood spirit body in the shrine.

The golden boy and jade girl with human heads and spider bodies spewed out spider silk the moment thunder and fire broke out, trying to wrap their flesh and blood spirits to prevent them from being harmed.

But it didn't work at all.

The spider silk transformed from the evil spirit was instantly burned by the thunder and fire.

The two golden boys and jade girls, who had human heads and spider bodies, were also burned by the thunder and fire. They screamed miserably in the flames, and emitted a fragrant barbecue smell.

Also screaming and roaring was the strange flesh and blood spirit in the shrine.

Half of its body was shattered by lightning and fire!
The demonic spirit that descended upon this body was caught off guard and was severely hit by the thunder and fire, suffering considerable injuries.

"Immortal Lord——"

"Are you okay, Immortal Lord?"

The two figures in front of the shrine were both shocked by this unexpected change.

By the time they reacted and tried to stop the thunder and fire, it was too late.

Instead, it was affected by the thunder and fire.

Thunder and fire enveloped them, illuminating their faces clearly.

One of them was the temple keeper Xin Yu.

The other person was the old gatekeeper who had no spiritual energy or witchcraft in his body and looked very weak.

However, at this moment, he was filled with murderous intent.

The evil spirit is so strong that it seems like a real object, and its strength is even stronger than Xin Yu!
