Chapter 19: Who Are You?
Now that the illusion has been explored, Bai Xue is on the road again.
She tread on the uneven black soil. Occasionally stepping on a few broken bones, there was a clatter in the silence of the wasteland. Strange to say, the big river in the distance was turbulent, but there was no sound at all.
With no purpose in the wilderness, she planned to go to the big red river first.
After walking for a while, a few crows flew out of nowhere, hovering over Bai Xue's head. They didn't get too close, only occasionally landing on the dead branches in the snowy path, and their eyes looked straight at the snow.
As the saying goes: where there are dead bodies, crows flock. If you let the crow be your guide, you will be taken to the carrion.
All this did not bode well in any way, but Bai Xue insisted on going to the big river, and she always felt that something in the river seemed to be faintly calling her.
There seemed to be a voice crying out in her heart: Come here... Come here...
This made Bai Xue involuntarily follow her heart's desire to go to the big river.
But the river seemed to be quite close from a distance, but after the snow had been gone for a long time, the river seemed to be only getting farther and farther away. Suddenly, Bai Xue stopped and shouted at the huge dead tree in front of him, "Who?!"
After a while, Mu Yan walked out of the dead tree.
Bai Xue frowned and looked at him: "Is it you?"
"Why are you here?" Mu Yan asked, looking at Bai Xue's cultivation.
The last time the absorption of the Soul Breaking Stone, Mu Yan did not break through to the Yuan Infant Stage, and it was still the late stage of Spiritual Silence. Bai Xue was promoted to the early stage of spiritual silence with the help of the three souls and seven spirits inside.
It stands to reason that the fire-based energy in the Soul Breaker Stone is enough for a fire-based monk to advance to several small realms. But it's not enough for Mu Yan, and it's strange to say.
Bai Xue didn't answer his words, but asked rhetorically: "I should ask you this sentence, why are you hiding behind that dead tree?"
Mu Yan pondered for a moment, "After I came in, I found that I was trapped in an illusion, and I have been walking on this wasteland since I realized that something was wrong and broke the illusion. After that, it felt like someone was there, so I temporarily ducked to the side. ”
"And I seem to feel something faintly calling in that great river. He looked at the river of blood in the distance, his eyes heavy.
"Oh, you feel that way?", she muttered, looking down.
It seems that the big river is only afraid of something catty.
Bai Xue and Mu Yan traveled together on the next journey, since the destination is the same, it is better to find one more person to go with, in this strange place, one more helper, and it is easier to solve problems. Although Bai Xue didn't know much about Mu Yan in his heart, he believed that such an arrogant person still had a trustworthy character.
As for the unpleasant matter of the Soul Breaker Stone, Bai Xue will ignore it for the time being.
Maybe it's because of the extra person who travels with you, and although the next journey is long, it doesn't seem boring. Even Bai Xue and Mu Yan are not people who talk much.
There was no word along the way, and it didn't take long for the two of them to reach the riverbank. Seeing this big red river up close is even more shocking.
Up and down the river, all of a sudden.
And when you get close to the river, the smell of blood is even stronger. Coming to her nose, Bai Xue couldn't help but hold her breath.
Although the river was rough and magnificent, there was not a single sound, as if the sound of the area was cut off. And when the river is flying, you can still see broken bones mixed in the red river water, there are monsters, and there are people.
Bai Xue felt the call in her heart and suddenly looked at a place. Mu Yan walked to Bai Xue's side and looked in that direction.
It was the center of the Blood River, and when Bai Xue and Mu Yan looked here, the river suddenly changed. The river no longer rushes forward, but stands still, divides in the middle of the river, and the riverbed gradually rises. The river does not flow slowly until the central riverbed rises sharply and appears in the field of view of Bai Xue and Mu Yan.
Mu Yan and Bai Xue looked at the protruding riverbed in shock.
On the riverbed rests a red throne. The entire chair is made of red crystals, and Bai Xue can feel the amazing aura contained in those crystals. At the back of the seat is a hollowed-out crystal relief, which is intricately carved but extremely delicate. What caught Bai Xue and Mu Yan's attention the most was that there were three boxes on the seats. The box is uncovered by a lid, and the contents are in full view.
The first box is a milky white child, the child is smaller than an ordinary baby, she sits on the box, tilts her head and bites her fingers and looks at Bai Xue and Mu Yan innocently, Bai Xue watched the child breathe pause, even if she has not seen it, she knows that the child is not an ordinary child, but is transformed from a divine elixir, a divine elixir, can no longer be regarded as a pill, but another life. Especially the divine elixir that has just produced spiritual wisdom and is in its infancy. That's invaluable.
And on the second box is a Ding furnace, which is golden and exudes a hot atmosphere. At first glance, you can see that it is not a mortal thing.
The third box is a black bead. I don't know what the bead is, but it looks like a cloud of mist.
The contents of these three chests are all rare treasures! They are treasures that anyone who sees them will be attracted to. Even though Qian Han left Bai Xue with a lot of good things, he didn't see the divine elixir, especially the last bead, Bai Xue's heart was full of longing for it, and his heart was full of desire.
Wrong!
Bai Xue bit the tip of her tongue and quickly retreated.
At the same moment, Mu Yan turned around and stretched out his hand to slap Bai Xue, and a palm print formed by a flame rushed towards Bai Xue. Bai Xue couldn't dodge it, and his shoulders were scorched black, and there was a faint smell of burnt meat.
Bai Xue covered her shoulders, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth under the veil, she looked up and asked, "Who are you?!"
Even if Bai Xue knew that Mu Yan was not as decent and gentleman as he appeared on the outside, even if she didn't have much contact with him, she could be sure that Mu Yan would not do anything like sneak attack.
The corners of Mu Yan's mouth hooked up a weird smile: "Who else can I be, I am naturally Mu Yan." ”
Bai Xue lowered his face: "You are not him, as far as I know, Mu Yan is the chief disciple of his Wanshan Sect, and he disdains to do such things as sneaking up on others." ”
That's right, Mu Yan is arrogant and invincible. The prince was not lightly ill, but he had his own pride. She was sure that the previous one was definitely an impostor
Mu Yan looked at him sarcastically: "Oh, you really look up to me." ”
He chuckled, a monstrous flame erupted all over his body, his aura boiled, and he walked towards Bai Xue step by step: "Under the treasure, everything is possible. Isn't it?" After saying that, the flames all over his body turned into fiery snakes, attacking Bai Xue from all directions.
The snow condenses the ice wall in all directions and overhead with its aura, forming an ice cover. Bai Xue is the body of an ice demon, and the aura in her body is extremely cold, and in a way, her practice of ice exercises is also twice the result with half the effort.
With the extremely cold aura, it condensed into ice, blocking Mu Yan's fire snake.
But this is not a way, her cultivation realm is not as good as his, and the total amount of aura in her body is not as good as his.
It has to be done quickly.
Mu Yan laughed wildly: "What?
With that, a giant sword made of flames slashed towards Bai Xue as if it had opened the world.
With a click, the ice wall shattered. Bai Xue spat out a mouthful of reverse blood and flew backwards.
Her expression was solemn, and she continued to condense layer after layer of ice walls. At the same time, the fingers quickly fluttered on the black strings.
Joy, happiness, color, comfort.
Thin, colourful, glass-like walls are isolated from the ice wall. It looks beautiful.
This time the flames formed four giant swords that slashed horizontally across the thin wall, and although the four superimposed thin walls were crumbling, they did not shatter.
Mu Yan was surprised, but he still looked at her mockingly, "There are two moments." "He wants to see what kind of reputation Bai Xue has. He has self-confidence, and with his cultivation of two realms larger than her, he is enough to crush her.
Bai Xue sneered, and her fingers turned into an afterimage on the black Xuan.
Anger, sorrow, resentment, hatred.
Four rays of light of different colors were entangled, forming a huge spiral nail that roared towards Mu Yan.
At this time, Mu Yan paid a little attention, and he felt a hint of threat in this attack. He narrowed his eyes and sealed his hands, "Huoyan Shield!"
In front of him, a hard, burning wall of fire was formed, and the spiral nails were nailed to the wall of fire, and the wall of fire was torn apart with rapid rotation.
Mu Yan frowned, retreated quickly, and instantly hit another harder wall of fire in front of him, the spiral nails were nailed to it and could not penetrate, Mu Yan showed a smug smile inside the wall, "But that's it." ”
The obstruction of the wall of fire made the spiral nails gradually dissipate, and the wall of fire turned into flames again and gathered around Mu Yan, he was about to say something, but his eyes suddenly widened. Because the snow is just around the corner.
Bai Xue had just gone to the future of the old force in his new force, his hands turned into black ice, and he stabbed Mu Yan's heart with a palm, Mu Yan's eyes widened, and he looked at the hand that penetrated his chest in disbelief, and fell down with a bang. He died and didn't understand why he would lose to a person whose cultivation was lower than his own.
Bai Xue's indifferent handle was withdrawn from his chest, bringing out a trail of blood. The black ice melted, and blood flowed down with the ice.
She looked at Mu Yan's corpse coldly.
If you think that she can only attack from a distance, it would be a big mistake, with the improvement of the soul sound technique, the strength of her physical body is also improving, and she can kill people with her hands as blades. In addition to cultivating the Soul Sound Technique, Bai Xue also minored in the Ice Technique. This will surprise the enemy.
The corpse was gradually stained with blood on the ground, and Bai Xue's hand pierced his entire chest, and now blood was slowly flowing from the hole. Bai Xue looked at Mu Yan's unbelievable face and frowned slightly.
This person is very weak.
The lion and the rabbit also use all their strength. His greatest failure was to despise her. But if it was the real Mu Yan, how could he be defeated by her so easily.
From this, she was even more sure that this person was definitely not Mu Yan. Mu Yan will never despise any of his enemies, he is arrogant, but cautious. Unstoppable, but above board. Even if he desperately wanted the Soul Breaker Stone that time, he could have killed Bai Xue behind his back, but he didn't do it. Even if Bai Xue couldn't get used to his nostrils facing the sky, he had to admit that he was worthy of the title of the pride of the sky. He has his proud capital.
Bai Xue squatted down and groped on Mu Yan's corpse, but did not find anything abnormal. There is no disguise or blinding on the face.
She frowned, not knowing what she was thinking.
At this time, Red Scales saw Bai Xue squatting on the ground motionless, and urged dissatisfiedly: "Xue'er, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and get those three things!"
Since the illusion was broken, Red Scales had not spoken until this point.
Bai Xue subconsciously answered, got up and walked towards the middle of the river.
However, when she was about to reach the middle of the river, she stopped, and the light veil on her face covered her face, making her expression look mysterious, and she asked softly, "Aunt Hong, what are those three things?"
"That's a god-level elixir and an immortal weapon, hahahaha, the last one is a soul bead, compared to the Soul Breaking Stone, it's a world of difference. Quick! get your hands on it!" Red Scales looked anxious.
Bai Xue looked inexplicable, "Okay." ”
She continued to walk forward, to the river, only one more step to step into the river, she looked at the three treasures on the throne, suppressed the desire in her heart, the next second, she burst out with amazing momentum, her left hand dragged the red scales wrapped around her right hand, and threw it to the throne in the middle of the river like lightning. At the same time, the body exploded and retreated, and several enchantments were made around him. It was all done in an instant, and after doing all this, she realized that she was in a cold sweat.
She gasped slightly, looking at the red scales that had fallen from the throne.
Red Scale was stunned by this series of actions, and then became furious: "Xue'er, what are you doing!?"
Bai Xue hid her slightly trembling hand in her sleeve, since she entered this place, broke the illusion, and fought Mu Yan again, until now, she has not breathed, and her spiritual power has consumed too much.
She looked at Red Scale vigilantly and said slowly, "You, who are you?"
