Chapter 15: The Dark Tide is Surging
After convincing Fan Shishi, Fan Chen saw that it was already late at night, and was ready to go back to the room to rest.
"Father, second sister, it's not too early, so I'll leave first. Fan Chen politely saluted his elders and left.
"Chen'er, I've really grown up. Fan Tong also stood up, and sighed happily as he walked away: "It's really not used to it, my son is working so hard, it seems that I have to work harder, and I'm ready to deal with it in a year." ”
Seeing that her father was also in preparation, Fan Shishi was able to be Fan Chen, who inspired the unity of the whole family.
She also came out of her worries, and promised to fully support Fan Chen, and tomorrow she thought about what was suitable for Fan Chen's spiritual skills, and to see if there were any ways to improve her cultivation.
Fan Chen walked back to his courtyard with the starlight and moonlight, only to see Fan Lingfeng waiting for him halfway.
"Third brother, let's take a look at this guard. Fan Lingfeng dragged Fan Chen to the outside of his courtyard.
Fan Chen saw five people standing on both sides of the door, wearing armor and holding big swords.
Walking all the way into the courtyard, it can be regarded as a step by step, and there is a patrol, as if entering a wartime state.
"Big brother......" Fan Chen was a little at a loss for words.
"What, look at the arrangement of the eldest brother, whether it is well defended, and not a single fly will disturb you. Fan Lingfeng asked confidently.
"Of course the eldest brother is well arranged! However, it is a little too much, and there is no need to arrange the yard, leave some privacy for me, you know the eldest brother." Fan Chen didn't dare to say it directly, how could it be that Fan Lingfeng cared about his own arrangement, but there were too many people in the courtyard, and it was not safe.
At that time, Fan Chen's words led to that meaning, and Fan Lingfeng immediately understood, and commanded the guards: "The people in the courtyard are evacuated, and those at the door are left." ”
"Thank you, big brother! It's getting late, you can go back and have a good rest!" Fan Chen asked Fan Lingfeng to go back and rest.
It was really not early, and the guards of Fan Lingfeng also laid down, looked around, and left.
Seeing that everyone was leaving, Fan Chen could finally start testing whether the ebony was really useful, so he returned to his room and began to experiment.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he took a deep breath, activated the ebony with his spiritual power, closed his eyes and entered the spiritual world to watch.
There was only a faint and small aura around him, and he didn't see any effect of ebony, just when Fan Chen was disappointed, a pure aura floated in.
With more and more, it began to surge in all directions.
Fan Chen immediately cultivated the spirit gathering, and his body emitted a blue and blue faint light, this time he could gather the spirit without interruption.
He felt that the spiritual veins were full of spiritual energy, and the magma space was slowly expanding.
It seemed that the pure aura around the entire city had been gathered by ebony, and Fan Chen could enter the cultivation with all his heart this time.
Under his meditative practice, it seems that a conspiracy is brewing......
Location: Inner Courtyard of the House of the Holy Spirit
Time: Around 1 a.m
"I heard that in a year, you are going to compete with the three young men of the Heavenly Spirit Pavilion?" a black-robed man was talking to Jin Shengning in the room.
"He doesn't deserve to compete with me! The newly awakened black iron-level spiritual vein, I can get rid of him with one hand. Jin Shengning stretched out his muscular arms, clenched his fists and said, "You are here to talk about this, you are too boring, right?"
"No, no, what matters is not the result of the competition, but the matter of the competition. The black-robed man raised his hand and waved it, telling him the point: "This is a matter involving the three families of Wuzhou City, and it must be the attention of the whole city, and the attention will be focused on this." ”
"I understand! You mean to attack the academy at this time and seize the Divine Tree Fusang!" Jin Shengning smiled slightly.
"Legend has it that the Fusang tree is trained into a soul wand, which can pass yin and yang, summon yin soldiers, attract the dead, and bring people back to life. It grows right at the top of the Glory Academy's red forest. The black-robed man said an astonishing temptation, and cooperated with Jin Shengning and said, "As long as you can help us win it, our dark soul will help you sit on the position of the head of the family, and even this Wuzhou City can be taken from you." ”
A year later, the plan began. Jin Shengning and the black robe reached a condition, but he also had his plans in his heart.
"Report~!" suddenly a soldier outside was in a hurry.
"Then I'll go first!" the black robe turned into a cloud of black smoke with a wave.
Jin Shengning tidied up, walked out of the door, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Young master, the head of the family asked you to go to the ice pool, where is the accident. The soldier knelt and replied.
As soon as Jin Shengning heard that something had happened to his cultivation holy land, he was also shocked, and he walked away in a hurry.
The soldier carried the light and followed all the way.
Walked until a rockery stopped, there were many soldiers guarding in front of the rockery, seeing Jin Shengning coming, he quickly opened the secret passage, the dark passage wall was covered with oil lamps on both sides, and it was a big space all the way down, with ice and fog floating in it, and the cold was pressing.
This strange cave seems to be natural, full of spiritual energy, it is a treasure land that the patriarch of the Holy Spirit Family accidentally discovered, and later built the Holy Spirit Family on it, which is why they have the strength to spread the imperial city, all relying on this blessed land, because of the cold and elegant, so it is called the Ice Pool.
"Father, what's wrong with Bingchi?" Jin Shengning asked worriedly when he saw that his father, second brother, and the major elders were here.
"Gather your spirits and take a look. His father, Jin Yelun, was as anxious as he let his son feel what was going on.
Jin Shengning did so, and as soon as he gathered his spirits, he immediately woke up in surprise and said, "How did the spiritual energy become so scarce, could it be that the spiritual veins of the earth have dried up?"
"This ice pool has served our Holy Spirit family for more than three hundred years, and there has never been such a thing, and I have already had people check the spiritual veins of the earth, and they have not dried up. The golden impeller said solemnly: "As for where the aura produced by the underground spiritual veins went, we still have to find out." ”
"Father, I'll go!" Jin Shengning was the first to be nervous, if he didn't have the help of Bingchi, his cultivation would be seriously hindered.
"Father, let me go with my eldest brother to investigate!" Jin Shengning's second brother Jin Yuemeng also wanted to follow.
Jin Shengning was unwilling, but his father Jin Yelun arranged it like this, and said, "Okay, you two brothers will investigate together." ”
"Yes!" the two brothers took the lead at the same time.
However, this situation is not only happening in the Holy Spirit family, but also in various families, and even in the Red Forest of the Glory Academy.
At night, the academy allowed the teachers to cultivate on the third layer of the Red Forest, but they didn't expect that there would be fewer and fewer spiritual energy when gathering spirits.
Everyone looked confused, and no one knew what was going on.
Only the headmaster at the top of the red forest, Ying Fu, found out that something was wrong through the reaction of the big tree in front of him.
The branches and leaves of the big tree are fluttering and fanning, and they seem to be happy.
"The spiritual energy is lost, the divine tree is moving, what is going on?" Win Fu is also unknown for what reason, the ancestors have been guarding this tree, and no one has heard of this kind of thing in the historical classics left by the ancestor, I really don't know if it's good or bad.
..................
Fan Chen, who was cultivating, felt that it had been a long time, and he was concentrating on gathering spirits, and he didn't notice the gathering of spiritual energy around him.
When he was in the spirit world, he noticed that the aura around him gathered like a blue ocean.
As soon as he knew that something was wrong, he immediately stopped activating the ebony, and he couldn't gather more aura, otherwise so many auras would gather here, and it would be easy to attract people's attention.
Fan Chen first continued to gather spirits, and after getting acquainted, he could be distracted and open his eyes to look at his surroundings.
Now it is still dark and dark here, all relying on the light of the fire, he will look at his flare pattern, the light point of the flare pattern startled, it has already lit up a three-point mark, and he feels that he has cultivated a little.
"Ten times the cultivation speed, otherwise it will be extraordinary. Fan Chen couldn't help but be happy, if he continued to practice like this, he quickly broke through to the illusion mirror.
He continued to close his eyes and watch, and instead of gathering, the aura around him began to slowly dissipate without the attraction of ebony.
However, with the current stock of spiritual energy, even if it is dispersed, it is enough for him to cultivate until dawn.
At the same time, the investigation teams of the major families also broke off the clues, and they originally followed the direction where the aura drifted away.
Suddenly, the aura stopped advancing and retreated in reverse, and everyone was stunned, they had never seen such a strange thing.
In the cultivation places of various families, the aura began to slowly pick up, and the strange things that had not happened in a thousand years made them not know how to deal with it, but the aura came back, which also made many people feel at ease.
All of this is the effect of Fan Chen's activation of the ebony, just like a huge soul devouring monster, as soon as it is opened, the whole city does not want to use the aura, it is simply a monopoly.
Fan Chen, who was happy, didn't know such a thing, he only knew that he had risen two levels in a row, and he felt that his spirit and body had been greatly improved.
When he used his divine sense to enter the spiritual veins, he saw that the range of magma had also expanded a lot, and even the central platform that was floating in the air had expanded a little.
In order to test the strength after entering the layer, Fan Chen tried to control the Ancient Void Gate, and said: "Resonate with the spirit, the human machine is one, the control is like two arms, and you can move as you like." ”
"Squeak~Squeak~!"
A spirit lock slowly moved, and Fan Chen could actually control a spirit lock, but it seemed to be very difficult to look at, and cold sweat was left behind.
"Squeak~Squeak~!"
"Huhu~!" Fan Chen let go, and the Zhenling lock retreated, and he collapsed with one hand on the ground, panting wildly, sweat dripping, and said: "This can't be done, if you fight, you can only wave it once or twice at most." ”
After Fan Chen rested, he retreated out of the spiritual vein, returned to the spirit gathering, and continued to cultivate.
