Chapter 1712: Xiandu Formation
Someone behind him brought out a big drum and started beating it "dong dong dong".
When the drum was first taken out, it was only the size of a palm. Once it was exposed to the wind, it became two sizes larger than a millstone. It is thick and simple, and the brown skin of the drum has shallow and fine scales.
The drumsticks used to beat the drums are not ordinary wooden sticks, but two long forked horns.
This is one of the most precious treasures of Heavenly Palace, the Soul-Shaking Drum!
It is a treasure handed down from ancient times, made of unicorn skin, and the drumstick is a pair of unicorn horns. There are more than a dozen ways to play it, corresponding to more than a dozen effects, but the most basic one is to shock the soul!
The dull drumbeats echoed throughout the Upside-Down Lake, rumbling like they were hitting everyone's chest, causing their blood to float and making them feel uncomfortable and nauseous. However, the centering flags on the boats quickly began to turn, with the flags fluttering and a hazy green light covering the living people on the boats.
The water monsters that were attacking desperately paused after hearing the sound, and began to sway, their movements not as smooth as before. The soul-shaking drums were beaten a dozen times, and many of the water monsters walked like drunks, staggering, and then fell to the ground.
Wisp after wisp of gray souls flew out of the shell and were about to fall into the Upside-Down Lake.
At this moment, the beats of the soul-shaking drum suddenly became dense, producing a sharp sound of killing. The water ghosts were scared out of their wits before they could escape from the boat!
They are originally dead souls at the bottom of the water, and they borrowed the water shell from somewhere. Normally, the connection between their souls and bodies is not as close as that of living people, so they cannot withstand the soul-shaking drum beats and will scatter at the slightest shake.
Bai Ziqi has already seen that the "Yakshas" that crawled up from the bottom of the lake are endless, until their own troops are exhausted. To eliminate these things, they cannot simply rely on force, but must attack their weaknesses.
He brought the Soul-Shaking Drum into the cave, originally because he was afraid that True Man Qianhuan would bewitch all living beings in his illusions, so he could use the drum to scare them away. He also didn't want to use it to repel the Yaksha, which was also the right remedy.
The Yakshas who got on board the boat fell dead one after another and soon turned into water and disappeared, without even their bodies left.
Seeing that a great battle was about to break out in the blink of an eye, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. These water monsters were not strong, but they were endlessly deadly. Who had the physical strength to resist to the end?
However, the last ship suddenly swayed left and right, swaying more than ninety degrees in this windless harbor, as if an invisible giant hand was stirring it hard.
The bird demon came quickly to report: "Yaksha drilled through the bottom of the boat and is trying to sink our boat!"
The Yakshas have learned their lesson. If they show their heads out of the water, they will be blown away by the Soul-Snatching Drum, so they just hide under the water and do bad things.
It would not be appropriate to send anyone into the water at this time. Bai Shiqi stretched out his hand and pointed, and his lamp spirit jumped into the water with a whoosh.
Everyone could see that the lamp spirit turned into a shark before going into the water.
But after the splash, the lake turned dark, just as before.
Where's the light?
The lamp spirit always emits warm golden light, so how come it disappeared once it entered the water?
"I can't see anything in the water. My lamp spirit is driving away the Yaksha under the water..." Bai Shiqi said here, and suddenly pressed his chest and shouted, "There is something, something under the water is tearing my lamp spirit apart!"
Bai Ziqi immediately ordered: "Go ashore at full speed, the water is not safe."
The other two White Guards also released their own lanterns into the water to rescue.
At this moment, several other large ships also began to sway, and it was obvious that Yaksha also took a fancy to them.
The magicians rushed to the side of the boat, endured the turbulence, and jointly cast a magical power:
Thunder of thunder.
This was a weakened version of the ancient magical power, which was originally used in the war between immortals and gods and was fired towards the sky. Now it was equally effective if it was fired into the water. Seven or eight huge thunders entered the water three feet before exploding with a loud bang, and the water surface was blown up with splashes more than two feet high!
This shows how powerful it is.
Of course, the Yakshas under the water also suffered, and a large number of them were knocked unconscious.
The ship lost no time in heading for the shore.
Bai Ziqi had previously discovered that the water monsters that crawled out of the Upside-down Lake were getting bigger and bigger, and it was obvious that they were constantly adjusting themselves.
He really is worthy of being called Master Qianhuan. Even without the real body showing up, he can still cause so many weird things.
As soon as the big ship docked, the Tiangong army couldn't wait to jump onto the rocky beach, and the place was filled with people like dumplings.
Phew, being down-to-earth makes people feel most at ease!
Even if Yaksha attacks again, everyone will be able to deal with it much more calmly.
After getting ashore, the first thing Bai Ziqi did was to order his personal guards to take out the talismans and start setting up the formation.
This is also a spirit gathering formation, called the "Xiandu Formation". Unlike the inverted Tiangang formation, it has only eleven formations and a smaller range for gathering spiritual energy, covering only Yinzhu Island.
However, its efficiency in absorbing spiritual energy in a short period of time is extremely strong, several times that of the Tiangang Array.
In fact, the Heavenly Palace also uses it for the night of the Emperor's Great Flood.
Another biggest advantage of this formation is its portability. It consists of twelve ready-made talismans, including the formation eye and the formation feet. You can carry it with you and use it right away, with almost no need for additional debugging.
Bai Ziqi's team has to deal with an endless stream of enemies. How can they have the time or patience to adjust the formation?
He walked to the edge of the rocky beach, grabbed the center of the formation and threw it into the air, shouting, "Rise!"
This eye is shaped like a flower vase. It stabilizes itself when it flies into the air, and its petals bloom layer by layer, emitting pink light.
The other eleven formation instruments also flew to the vicinity of the formation's center as if being summoned, choosing their own positions and automatically blooming.
Yes, this set of Xiandu formation was suspended in the air, three feet above the ground, and did not touch the ground, so the changes on the ground had basically nothing to do with it. Unless the Huanzong performed the mountain-moving technique again and created a mountain here.
That doesn't matter. Bai Ziqi can set up the formation in another place and see who consumes more and has higher cost.
Then the formation started to operate automatically, madly drawing spiritual energy from the world!
The palace guards standing near the formation could even see that the green air from far and near was being sucked in and thrown into the vortex stirred up by the formation.
Aura, green mist-like aura!
This is really a sudden change.
The main center of the Xiandu Formation, the bottom of the petals leads directly to a golden bud-shaped container. The spiritual energy sucked in here is transformed into slurry and stored.
Don't underestimate it as it is just a shallow bud. The tremendous spiritual energy sent into it is like a drop in the ocean. It cannot be filled up in a short period of time!
The Heavenly Palace has existed for a long time and has experienced countless cycles of spiritual energy revival. It has its own set of experience and highly effective magic tools for Sheng Jie Di Liu Jiang.
They don't have to collect countless containers to store the Emperor's Liquid like He Lingchuan did.
However, the area of the Upside-Down Sea is limited, and the total amount of spiritual energy is not as much as when the Emperor's spiritual energy is at its peak in the outside world. After being drained away by the "Xiandu Formation", it is hard to say when it will be exhausted.
To dig up the roots of the immortal, this is the core idea of Tiangong and Bai Ziqi to turn the tables and turn the passive situation into the main attack.
The Xiandu formation was successfully activated, and the Tiangong team cheered.
Based on past experience, this trick is very useful in other immortal caves.
