By then the Brain Tree would once again sink into silence, the Fungus Tree would become an independent existence, even using the wound on the stomach wall to come to the outside world.
That would not be worth the loss.
Li Tiangang clearly also realized this point, after several changes in expression he shouted: "Song Zongwu, take the Ghost Infant to the Brain Tree."
Song Zongwu did not ask the reason, he directly carried the sacrificial altar on his back.
"Wait!!"
Li Tiangang again called out to stop Song Zongwu, he forcibly calmed himself down.
Because of the large gathering of anomalous entities, they became even more terrifying through mutual devouring, quite a few had already reached a level that even Yin Runner realm cultivators would find shocking.
Ren Qing looked into the distance.
Densely packed anomalous entities almost covered more than ten li around, if Song Zongwu wanted to reach the Brain Tree, the difficulty could be imagined.
It was also unrealistic to take the altar there, this was not as simple as throwing the Black Goat under the tree, the three souls had to be summoned.
Its huge body in midair would only attract the Brain Tree's attention.
Li Tiangang narrowed his eyes and asked: "Where is Shui Hulu..."
Zun said with hatred: "Where is Shui Hulu?"
Li Tiangang's face changed, after looking around he did not find Shui Hulu's figure, the current situation was urgent, there was no way to delay.
He understood that Shui Hulu had noticed the signs in advance, in the original plan if an accident occurred, there was indeed the intention to force Shui Hulu to act.
The head in the jar shook and said: "I'll look for him..."
"Actually."
Ren Qing couldn't help but raise his brows, his gaze turned to the northeast of the temporary camp, faintly able to sense the aura of the Dream Seed.
"Shui Hulu seems to be there."
"You're sure?"
"Eighty percent."
Li Tiangang slightly nodded, now there was no time to listen to reasons, he immediately had Zun go investigate whether there was any trace of Shui Hulu.
"Deserting in battle, truly seeking death."
A fierce light flashed in Zun's eyes, he immediately spread his wings and soared into the sky.
Although there were many anomalous entities in the air, with his speed he could easily dodge, in the blink of an eye he arrived at that hill.
Zun let out a bird cry from his mouth, the sound wave acted directly from above to below into the ground.
Boom boom boom...
The ground split open with cracks, Shui Hulu clumsily drilled out from inside.
"You people want to die, why drag me along as a burial companion?!!"
Shui Hulu lowered his head, in his hand holding a humanoid gourd, clearly a result of using the magic of some Restraint Officer.
It could be seen that when he previously dropped water droplets, he was choosing a target to attack.
The humanoid gourd turned into water mist and spread, Shui Hulu's figure slowly disappearing.
Zun, seeing this, wanted to dive down, but felt a strange aura from within the camp, along with the strange laughter of the head in the jar.
"Shui Hulu, you no longer have a chance, I'll borrow your body for a while."
The jar shattered, the head suddenly vanished, when it appeared again it was already fixed onto Shui Hulu's neck.
With the jar head on top of him, Shui Hulu's movements became stiff.
"Hahahaha."
Zun, seeing this, used his claws to grab Shui Hulu, and in moments returned to the temporary camp, Shui Hulu clearly already controlled by the jar head.
The jar head's voice rang out: "With Shui Hulu's cultivation, I can borrow him for about one hour, should be enough, right?"
"Enough."
Li Tiangang turned his head to look at Li Bai, the latter's expression was grave, taking a deep breath his whole body instantly turned to rock, placing both hands on the ground.
The camp immediately began to shake.
The ground was directly lifted several meters, like an island in the ocean.
"Hehehehe..."
The jar head laughed strangely, the Flesh-and-Blood Gourd on his back opened, a great deal of water vapor surged out, quickly enveloping the camp.
Li Tiangang took out a sheet of paper and transformed it into something dozens of meters in size, standing in the central position.
Under his command, the Restraint Officers cast spells to control the violent wind, making the camp move forward like a ship riding the wind and breaking the waves.
It quickly charged towards the location of the Brain Tree.
The anomalous entities along the way could not resist trying to climb onto the camp walls, but were all struck down by the Restraint Officers, including Ren Qing.
Ren Qing took the opportunity to collect quite a lot of flesh.
It seemed smooth sailing, but the one consuming the most energy was naturally the possessed Shui Hulu, after all he had to control the tides to push them forward, even with Yin Runner realm cultivation it was difficult to sustain.
Shui Hulu must have seen the signs from Li Tiangang's arrangements.
Because he was unwilling to consume too much energy and be controlled by others, he simply went all the way, killed people to refine artifacts and hid until it was over.
The camp's momentum was immense, every breath dozens of anomalous entities were directly crushed to death.
But it also attracted trouble.
Boom!!
A sound of air being torn rang out.
A huge anomalous entity with a dog's face and elephant's body blocked the camp's path, swinging massive limbs to strike the city wall.
Seeing this, Song Zongwu pulled the Restraint Officers on the wall aside, standing alone in front, his four arms turning into afterimages to strike at the anomalous entity.
Bang bang bang bang...
The anomalous entity could already compare to the Yin Runner realm, impossible to eliminate in a short time, but the time bought was already enough.
However this caused cracks to open everywhere, Li Bai was busy repairing, sweating profusely.
Zun spread his wings and took to the air, summoning fierce winds out of nothing.
The camp's speed once again increased, instantly rushing into the range of the fungus mist, also taking the opportunity to throw off the dog-faced, elephant-bodied anomalous entity.
In the air floated tufts of Taisui, visibility becoming lower and lower.
They hadn't advanced far before they discovered that the Taisui seemed fixed in place, difficult for the wind to blow away.
Added to that was the sheer number of anomalous entities, the camp gradually slowed down.
If time were sufficient, Shui Hulu's spell alone could have reached the Brain Tree's position, but they quickly realized they could not delay.
As they drew ever closer, the Black Goat's belly gradually bulged.
Li Tiangang was as if facing a great enemy.
He had already done his utmost to apply seals, plus Taisui's suppression of heavenly demon aura, there should have been no sudden incidents.
But one of the three souls was about to be born.
It seemed they had to take the risk.
"Li Yaoyang, it's up to you."
"Mn."
Li Yaoyang nodded, forming seals with his hands, chanting under his breath.
The cocoons around the camp gradually swelled.
The jar head, seeing this, detached from Shui Hulu's neck, Li Tiangang directly pulling a page of paper from the position of his heart.
The tides ceased, the camp no longer advanced.
Shui Hulu, regaining consciousness, had just wanted to speak when he felt a sheet of paper pressed to his forehead, his sight instantly falling into darkness.
Seeing this, Ren Qing quickly withdrew the heavenly demon Dream Seed, to avoid being affected.
Li Tiangang gave Ren Qing a strange look, then sealed Shui Hulu into the paper, to prevent him from making trouble.
Ren Qing was about to ask when suddenly the camp slowly rose.
From within the cocoon grew insect legs four or five meters long, making the camp crawl forward like a centipede, ordinary anomalous entities easily being pinned to death.
Song Zongwu led the Restraint Officers to defend the wall, killing anomalous entities by the thousands.
Li Tiangang took out paper to reinforce the camp, while turning his head and saying: "Ren Qing, your eye technique is stronger, you'll take charge of direction."
"Leave it to me."
Ren Qing's soul split from his body, floating in midair, both body and soul using Double Pupils, his sight gradually piercing the dense fungus mist.
Only now did he discover that guiding the direction was not so simple.
Because the Brain Tree's branches swung constantly, almost without pattern, if they struck the camp it would surely be smashed to pieces.
Ren Qing wiped sweat from his forehead.
Without hesitation he let the heavenly demon Dream Seed possess him, even though the eye at his brow was indeed strange, as long as he did not release heavenly demon aura there should be no problem.
With the heavenly demon Dream Seed's empowerment, the Double Pupils suddenly saw things clearly.
Before he could adapt, his face went pale and he shouted loudly: "Li Yaoyang, move upper left, quickly!!!!"
Li Yaoyang immediately controlled the camp, striding over ten meters to the upper left.
But after several breaths with no movement, he couldn't help but suspect, feeling perhaps Ren Qing was just nervous...
Boom!!!
A thick branch smashed into the original position, blowing open a deep pit.
Not to mention Li Yaoyang, even Song Zongwu was shocked, Avici Hell being a spell of the Yang God realm, a strike from the Brain Tree would be hard for even Yin Runner realm to withstand.
"Don't just stand there, retreat!"
The camp immediately moved back, with Ren Qing's earlier almost miraculous prediction, Li Yaoyang's actions became more decisive.
A branch fell.
Boom!!!
Ren Qing's scalp tingled.
In the other Restraint Officers' eyes it was just the eye technique working, but Ren Qing felt like he was walking on the tip of a blade, unable to help feeling terror.
Especially when realizing a branch was about to fall on the camp, it was as if death was close at hand.
Ren Qing forcibly cast out stray thoughts, then kept speaking reminders, Li Yaoyang controlling their advance, the two cooperating more and more smoothly.
The Brain Tree was getting closer and closer, even faintly revealing the towering Taisui giant.
The Black Goat's cries became urgent, from its chest and belly came the sound of crawling, as if something strange was moving towards its throat.
Li Tiangang was as if facing a great enemy.
He, Zun, and the jar head stood in a triangle, eyes wary on the Black Goat.
The seven spirits were already extremely troublesome, if not for the many Yin Runner realm Restraint Officers and prior preparations, they might not have been able to handle it.
And the three souls were the leading force among the soul and spirit.
Waa waa waa waa...
Before the false soul even appeared, crying sounds came to each person's ears, their eyes involuntarily reddening.
Their minds were filled with filthy, chaotic thoughts, even Yin Runner realm cultivators could not avoid being affected.
Li Tiangang froze in place, squeezing out three words between his teeth: "You... Jing... Hun."
The three souls belonged to heaven, earth, and man; among them the earth soul was the Youjing, the impurity of yin energy, ruling over calamity and decline, making people lustful and wanton.
From within the Black Goat crawled a beautiful woman-snake, making it even harder for everyone to keep clarity, watching as it crawled towards the nearest Li Tiangang.
Ren Qing's split soul was less affected, but the Brain Tree's branches were already raised, forcing him into the dilemma of having to protect the camp.
The Ghost Shadow forcibly controlled the insect legs to step aside, narrowly avoiding the attack.
But half of the woman-snake's body had already entered Li Tiangang's mouth.
Just then, footsteps sounded.
Song Zongwu leapt down from the wall, directly grabbing the woman-snake and forcibly pulling it out, his six eyes showing bone-deep cold.
"Dare to disturb my state of mind!!"
The wind lifted his white hair, faintly revealing thirteen burn scars on his scalp.
In Buddhism, twelve burn scars represented the highest "Bodhisattva Precepts," the rumored thirteen burn scars being nicknamed "My Buddha," a great blasphemy.
Song Zongwu's fingers turned golden, stabbing into the woman-snake's seven inches.
Blood flowed out.
The Brain Tree suddenly became incomparably silent.
