I'm in the world of Xianjian

Chapter 157: Dream Taoist (Part 1)

Lin Shen, Li Xiaoyao and his group found a cave with an iron chain leading down. So the six of them climbed the chain to the fifth floor, but they didn't find anything there.

At this time, Zhao Linger and Jiang Waner's stomachs started to growl, and Lin Yueru suggested that they rest for a while before setting off again.

Li Xiaoyao and his companions took out their dry food and started eating, while Lin Shen continued to keep watch for everyone as usual.

But Lin Shen noticed one thing, there was not even a single poisonous creature on this floor. He always felt something was wrong, it was eerily quiet.

At this time, a pair of eyes were staring at Lin Shen and his group, and after a while, the eyes disappeared again.

Just as a few people were resting on the spot, a cloud of black smoke suddenly appeared.

Lin Shen and Zhao Linger sent out strong winds to try to disperse the black smoke, but it had no effect. Soon the black smoke surrounded the six people.

Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru and Anu were suddenly panicked because they couldn't see the people and things around them.

Lin Shen and Li Xiaoyao's names were called out. Lin Shen heard the three women's voices and responded, but strangely, Li Xiaoyao did not respond, and Jiang Wan'er was also silent.

After a while, the black smoke dissipated, and Lin Yueru counted the number of people and found that Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er were gone. Zhao Ling'er, Anu, and Lin Shen were still there.

Zhao Linger shouted, "Sister Jiang, Brother Xiaoyao, where are you!?"

Lin Shen gritted his teeth in anger and said, "Oh my god, something really happened. What the hell is going on? You snatched someone away from right under my nose. How dare you! I'll make you pay for it!"

Lin Yueru patted Lin Shen's shoulder and said, "Anos, calm down. Don't let your anger cloud your mind. Think about how to find someone."

Lin Shen took a breath and exhaled after a while. After a while, Lin Shen calmed down and closed his eyes, using his observation Haki to try to sense the location of the two people.

Sure enough, traces of Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er were found in the deepest part of this floor, but there was another person beside them, whose identity was unknown.

Lin Shen told the three girls about the situation, and Lin Yueru said, "Let's go there quickly. If we're late, something might happen."

Zhao Linger said, "Brother Anos, please teleport us over there. We don't know what the situation is over there, so we have to hurry." Lin Shen nodded, and used the Leaping Technique to lead the three of them inside.

At this time, inside the cave, there was a man who looked to be nearly 40 years old, with a thin face, wearing a black Taoist robe, and had a red round birthmark on his left cheek.

He placed his hands on the tops of Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er's heads, releasing a stream of black energy that seeped into their bodies. They resisted at first, but gradually calmed down.

At this moment, Lin Shen, Zhao Linger and the other two appeared in front of the man. Lin Shen pointed at the man and said, "Who are you, you demon? Why did you capture our companions?!"

The man said, "Your companion...! Excuse me, now he's my companion."

Lin Yueru shouted, "What did you say~!?"

Lin Shen said, "It seems that Xiaoyao and Miss Jiang are controlled by this guy."

Anu shouted, "Brother Li, Sister Jiang!" But neither of them responded.

The man clapped his hands and said, "My servant!" Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er turned to look at Lin Shen and the other three.

Their eyes were red and their faces were fierce. Even the most slow-witted person would have noticed that something was wrong.

Zhao Linger shouted, "What did you do to Brother Xiaoyao and Sister Jiang? Who are you?"

The man said, "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Taoist Meng'e.

I will turn these people into my puppets and build my underground kingdom here."

Lin Shen said, "What a weird name. What's the point of creating a puppet kingdom with a bunch of puppets?"

Taoist Meng'e continued, "I practice a technique that requires the dark side of a person's heart as my energy source. In fact, I have been observing you six since you came here. And these two are the best materials."

Lin Shen thought: If Li Xiaoyao has a dark side in his heart, I can understand it. After all, I stole his marriage and also stole a lot of his limelight. He must have some resentment towards me.

But what could happen to Jiang Wan'er? Could it be because I didn't take care of her as much as I did Ling'er, Yueru and Anu?

Taoist Meng'e pointed at Lin Shen and the other two. Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er rushed towards them. Lin Shen took the lead and kicked out two

Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er blocked the attack with their swords, and then prepared to strike Lin Shen's feet with their backhands.

But Lin Shen didn't give them any chance and landed smoothly with a backflip.

Anu shouted, "Brother Anos, you are crazy. They are Brother Li and Sister Jiang, our companions!"

Lin Shen said, "They are now the puppets of the Taoist Meng'e. If we want to deal with that demon, we must defeat them first. We can't be so cautious now, otherwise the four of us will suffer."

Taoist Meng'e clapped his hands and laughed, saying in a strange tone, "I just love watching this kind of fratricide. It's so exciting and fun."

Lin Yueru said, "Anos is right. Hesitation at this time will only make us more passive.

(To Lin Shen) Anos, I'll leave Brother Li and Miss Jiang in your care. The three of us will take care of that demon!

At this time, Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er raised their swords and stabbed at Lin Shen. Lin Shen had no time to be distracted because he had to deal with the two of them. He just said "hmm" and summoned the World-Destroying Demon Blade and held it in his hand.

Lin Shen said, "Xiaoyao, Miss Jiang, I'm sorry." The two did not respond, but stabbed Lin Shen's heart with a sword.

Lin Shen quickly dodged and slapped Jiang Wan'er before the two of them could retract their attacks. Jiang Wan'er dragged Li Xiaoyao with her, and they both fell to the ground at the same time.

Taoist Meng'e slapped his thigh and cursed, "Two pieces of trash!"

Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru, and Anu stood in front of the old Taoist priest. Zhao Linger said, "Master Meng'e, you want to use evil magic to control others. Today, the three of us are going to put an end to you."

Taoist Meng'e said, "You are worthy!"

Lin Yueru raised her hand and sent a sword energy towards the Taoist. The Taoist quickly dodged to the side, and the sword energy opened a hole in the wall behind him.

The Taoist took a look and said, "Little girl, it seems you have some skills. Why don't you stay here too?"

Lin Yueru replied neatly, "Dream on!" Then she took out a handful of copper coin darts and threw them at the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest jumped up and the copper coin darts missed.

Seeing the old Taoist priest hovering in mid-air, Anu hurriedly took out an explosive Gu from his brocade bag and threw it over. The old Taoist priest immediately threw out a magic talisman.

The talisman and the explosive Gu exploded when they collided, and the old Taoist also landed safely on the ground.

The old Taoist sighed, "It seems that you, a girl from Miaojiang, have some skills."

Anu said, "It's not your turn to judge whether I'm powerful or not!"

At this time, Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er attacked Lin Shen from the left and right. Lin Shen took out the Kongming Sword and used both swords to resist the attacks of the two.

Lin Shen fought with the two men for more than forty rounds without a clear winner. Lin Shen quickly jumped back to create some distance.

Lin Shen fired a beam of light from the Kongming Sword, and Li Xiaoyao used his sword to block it. The beam hit the blade of the Seven Star Sword, and Li Xiaoyao was shocked by the force of the beam and took three steps back.

Jiang Wan'er thrust her sword forward, but Lin Shen blocked Jiang Wan'er's Frost Sword with both of his swords. Jiang Wan'er tried to retract her sword, but she couldn't pull it out.

Lin Shen took the opportunity to kick Jiang Wan'er in the body. The kick hit her lower abdomen, and Jiang Wan'er instinctively took a few steps back.

But the Frost Condensation Sword was still held by Lin Shen. Lin Shen put away the Clear Sky Sword and picked up the Frost Condensation Sword.

Jiang Wan'er rushed towards Lin Shen again, but this time she could only fight with her bare hands.

He clenched his fists and hit Lin Shen, but Lin Shen didn't rush to fight back, he just dodged.

After Jiang Wan'er threw more than ten punches, Lin Shen seized the opportunity, grabbed Jiang Wan'er's wrist and threw her out.

Li Xiaoyao threw the Seven Star Sword into the air, then made a hand gesture and chanted a spell, and the Seven Star Sword stabbed towards Lin Shen's forehead.

Lin Shen slapped the Seven Star Sword away. Lin Shen muttered, "Looks like we need to find a way to wake these two up."

At this time, Zhao Linger condensed her spiritual power and raised her left hand, forming a magic circle in the air, from which countless ice needles flew out.

Taoist Meng'e cast a spell with both hands, and a stream of fire spewed out of his mouth, melting the ice needles.

Lin Yueru also took the opportunity to shoot out a sword energy from her finger, but this time the old Taoist was a beat slower, and the sword energy scratched the old Taoist's right arm.

Lin Yueru said, "Demon, you lose!"

Taoist Meng'e laughed evilly three times and said, "No... I haven't lost yet. Today, none of you can leave!"

After saying this, Taoist Meng'e began to gather his spiritual energy, while Li Xiaoyao and Jiang Wan'er also began to bulge their veins and scream in confusion...
