Chapter 33: Unintentional Dust (2)
(b)
"Back then, it was really not difficult for Luan Feng and the two to enter the tower, they thought that they didn't have to go up to kill all the demon beasts, but went directly to the bottom of the tower. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info" Bai Su said this, with a trace of grief and indignation on his face: "You have seen the eight pillars around this altar, I didn't know the specific magical powers of this eight-sided exquisite pagoda back then, otherwise I would never have contacted the two sisters of Luan Feng to save me." When they broke into the bottom layer, the figures of the eight shadow demon beasts appeared on these eight pillars, although each of them was not as powerful as the demon beasts of each layer, but the eight were together, and they all reached the strength of the early stage of soul condensation, so it is not surprising that the two sisters of Luan Feng fell. ”
"I see. Yu Ting suddenly said: "We will now kill all the demon beasts, so that these demon beasts will no longer appear on these eight pillars." ”
"Yes. Bai Su nodded: "That's why when you came in, I didn't let you go directly to the bottom." In that case, you will be dealing with eight demon beasts that are almost all in the early stage of the True Pill. ”
When Yu Ting and the others heard this, they were all afraid for a while. If that happens, they're dead.
"Senior Bai, but this time you summoned Luan Feng to save you, it seems that there is also a problem. For example, the huge light curtain outside the giant tower seems to have been unexpected. Yu Ting thought about this question.
"Yes, that protective array should have been laid by the people of the Xu family before leaving, and its purpose was to prevent it from being opened on its own to add extra protection when the eight-sided exquisite energy was almost consumed. Bai Su thought about it for a moment and replied.
"Then senior, why didn't the people of the Xu family kill you?" Hu Delin finally interjected: "After so many years, your father-in-law should also have cultivated a lot, why didn't he come to save you?"
"This question involves some secrets of our White Snake clan. Bai Su breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "It's okay to tell you. Our White Snake clan is sparsely numerous, and our strength is indeed average compared to many other clans, but we have a few extraordinary features. One is that we are good at divination, and the other is that we have a kind of essence and blood scales in our body, but they are unique treasures in this world, and it is difficult to generate several in a lifetime. It has some special magical powers, and it is related to the soul of the monk, it is a treasure that makes the high-level monk crazy, especially the essence blood scales from the high-level cultivator of the White Snake Clan are extremely precious. ”
"Essence Blood Scales?" Everyone had never heard of such a thing, and they couldn't help but look at each other in amazement.
"Yes. Bai Su nodded: "But this kind of treasure has also become a disaster for our White Snake clan, which is why our clan must be extremely careful at all times." But fortunately, this essence blood scale cannot be obtained by killing our White Snake people, it must be taken out by ourselves willingly, and cannot be obtained by any other means. ”
Yu Ting and the others naturally didn't understand what Bai Su said, this kind of treasure of essence blood scales, especially related to the soul of the monk. But Yu Ting had already vaguely guessed something, because of the special situation that appeared on Tang Yu and Xiaoice.
"The Xu family's refusal to kill me has something to do with this essence blood scale. Bai Su continued: "They also desperately want to get this thing, but if I don't want to, they can't get it, so they trap me first." Of course, it is not so easy for them to really kill me, it takes a lot of effort, and my status in the White Snake Clan is not low, the best result they want is to ask me to swear to leave Xu Gongzi, and hand over one or two essence blood scales, and let me leave here. ”
Bai Su continued: "But as I said, the women of our White Snake clan all have problems with being trapped by love, so naturally I will not agree to leave Xianggong. As for why Xu Gongzi didn't come to save me, the reason is very simple, because after he is brought back, he will definitely erase this memory, which is not a great supernatural power among the high-level cultivators of the upper realm. ”
At this time, Bai Su's eyes showed sadness and stopped. When everyone heard this, they immediately understood that that Xu Gongzi didn't know that he had a wife of the White Snake clan now, so now this white senior has become an unrequited person.
Everyone was silent for a while, and Tang Yu asked, "Senior Bai, then the background of me and Xiaoice is also related to the essence blood scales you said." ”
"Yes, Yu'er. Bai Su eased his mind: "Back then, I used the essence blood scales to keep the souls of the two of you and help the two of you reincarnate." Xiaoice's situation is normal, and when she cultivates to the soul condensation stage, she will be able to transform into human form. And your situation is a bit special, I guess it happened to be when you were reincarnated and met with Miss Tang's soul and merged into one body. This is still a new phenomenon, and I will ask you again and check it out. ”
"Oh, that's how it should be. Tang Yu nodded, and asked again: "But the fall of my predecessor was only two hundred years ago, and according to you, Luan and Feng fell here more than a thousand years ago, as if time was too far apart." ”
"It's also easy to understand. Bai Su nodded and said, "Listen to what you told me earlier, Luan was reincarnated and went to the egg of a parasitic beast in the body of a Feihong beast, but it never gave birth until it devoured the soul of your predecessor. Because you have a talent for beast resistance, it is indeed possible that you will have a connection with Luan who is still in the beast's egg. ”
"Well, I guess so, I have a trace of memory now. Tang Yu pondered for a while, and couldn't help but nodded: "This parasitic beast is said to have only been dead for more than two hundred years, and it seems that there are still some parasitic beasts still alive in this Feihong beast." ”
"Yes. Bai Su agreed: "The Feihong Beast is extremely huge, the space in its body is also very large, and there are many various spaces, and there are indeed some parasitic beasts that are still alive, but they can't leave these spaces to go outside." However, if this giant beast is compared to the fierce beasts of the ancients, it is not a huge and terrifying thing. ”
"Senior Bai, I have a question I want to ask, I don't know if the senior can solve the puzzle. Yu Ting, who had been silent just now, spoke: "As far as I know, demon beasts are different from us humans and have no souls, but you just said that they also have them and can be reincarnated, which makes me very surprised." ”
"The question of Yu Xian's nephew is very crucial. Bai Su smiled slightly and explained: "If you want to understand this problem thoroughly, it is best to reach the soul condensation period to understand it clearly." The so-called soul condensation means that the monk's body can condense the soul into an entity, of course, the entity condensed in your nether realm is still very weak, and you will know the benefits of this when the time comes. ”
"Oh. . . "Yu Ting should arrive.
Bai Su continued to explain: "We all know that a demon beast without spiritual intelligence has no soul, but if it can advance to the realm of the soul condensation stage, it will also condense the soul entity like a human monk, so that it has spiritual wisdom and can also transform into a human form. Therefore, for the monks of the demon clan, this condensation will be the most important evolution in their lives, and most of them will stop at this juncture. The conditions required for this advancement are varied, and each different type of demon beast is different, but if you want to transform into a human form, you must have a soul to complete it. ”
"I see. The crowd was a little stunned.
"Most of the souls they acquire come from humans, through fusion or reincarnation. Bai Su then explained: "In addition, there are many special acquisition processes, such as Luan Feng and the others, it was with the help of Luan Feng's two ancient trees that they succeeded in condensing their souls, according to my opinion, the two of them obtained their souls from Luan Feng's ancient trees and advanced to the realm of the soul condensation stage and turned into human form, as for why Luan Feng ancient trees have souls in their bodies, it is unknown." With a soul, of course, you can be reincarnated like you humans. Therefore, if a demon beast can condense its soul, it is no different from a human being. If you can transform into a human form, the benefits are self-evident, not only can you cultivate human supernatural powers, but you can also have seven emotions and six desires. ”
"I see. When everyone heard this, they were completely stunned.
"By the way, I heard Yu'er talk about you just now, and how your apprentice rescued her and Bing'er in the secret realm, and I am here to express my gratitude again. Bai Su smiled and said to Yu Ting.
"Seniors don't have to say thanks, this is also helping ourselves. Yu Ting and Hu Delin hurriedly responded.
"Yes, senior, Senior Sister Tang has also become my wife. Hudlin added.
"Well, this is also Yu'er's blessing. Bai Su also nodded to Hu Delin, and seemed to be very satisfied with this Tang Yu's father-in-law.
"Then senior, can you tell me what is going on with this eight-sided exquisite tower, I am very interested. Hudlin asked.
"This eight-sided exquisite tower, that is a treasure of the Xu family. Bai Su pondered for a while, and then replied, "You have all seen its power, but in fact its power is far greater than what you have seen. Just those few ancient fierce beasts, although they are not the highest level existences, are also extremely difficult to deal with. From that alone, you can see that this is not something that ordinary people can kill and take their spirits and throw them into the tower. ”
Everyone listened and nodded in approval.
"Due to the suppression of the interface, the people of the Xu family actually couldn't do anything about me back then, and only by sacrificing this treasure did they suppress me. Bai Su continued: "Their original plan was to wait for a while, and then come back to talk to me about a deal when I was weak, that is, to make me swear not to go to Xu Gongzi again, and to hand over one or two essence blood scales. According to the calculations of the Xu family, under normal circumstances, in another five hundred years or so, the demon beast spirit in this eight-sided exquisite tower would be exhausted. Until then, they will do it again, take back the eight-sided tower, and deal with my business at the same time. Either let me go because I agreed to their requests, or simply destroy me. ”
"Ah, the people of the Xu family will come?" Qin Xueyun exclaimed.
"That's nature. Bai Su smiled slightly: "They obviously won't abandon this treasure, and if they find some powerful demon beast spirits to put it in the future, it will become extremely powerful again." Of course, they don't come as soon as they want, it is not easy to break the boundary to the next level, and breaking into the lower realm will cause a lot of trouble. If they want to come, they also need to be carefully prepared, especially not to let other cultivation clans and sects know. ”
"Senior Bai, this time you summoned us to save you, I found that it was still very risky, I don't know. Tang Yu thought of a question and asked a little hesitantly.
"Yes, I'm at fault in this regard. Bai Su nodded, revealing a hint of apology: "I'm anxious to summon the two of you to save me, first, I calculated that the people of the Xu family may come back early, and I have to get out of trouble as soon as possible, and second, I sensed that you have advanced to the True Dan stage, and you should have a certain strength." But I still didn't expect that although this eight-sided exquisite pagoda had been consumed for so many years, it was still quite powerful, and I didn't expect that the people of the Xu family would also have a magic circle to block it. If it weren't for the help of Yu Xian and his nephew, the two of you would have fallen here again. Hey, I almost made another big mistake. ”
After Bai Su finished speaking, his eyes showed guilt.
"This is also the blessing of the Bai seniors, it just so happens that there are senior brothers and sisters who can come to help. Tang Yu hurriedly comforted.
"Well, yes, heaven for me. Bai Su glanced at Yu Ting and nodded: "By the way, nephew Yu Xian, I heard Yu'er say that last time you rescued her in the secret realm, and when you retrieved Xiaoice, there was also a woman with you, who is said to be your other partner, why didn't she come with you this time?"
As he spoke, he also glanced at Qin Xueyun.
"This... Yu Ting was speechless for a moment. After a while, he replied gloomily: "Back then, I was able to rescue Senior Sister Tang and Xiaoice, and Sister Lan did make a lot of effort. However, because I have been trapped in the secret realm for decades, and my cultivation has been stuck in the early stage of foundation building, I can't improve, and my own bad mood has brought a bad influence to her, and we have separated many years ago. ”
"Oh, I see. Bai Su suddenly showed an interested look, nodded, and asked, "But I think your cultivation is already good now, so why don't you reunite with her?"
"Husband Jun has only recently found a way to improve his cultivation, and when this time comes, he will go to Lan Xiao's sister after returning to Qiyun Sect. Qin Xueqi saw that Yu Ting was embarrassed, so she immediately helped him answer.
"Oh, that's it. Bai Su thought for a while, and asked again: "Then forgive me for asking one more question, does Yu Xian's nephew think that he can still make your blue sister change her mind?"
Everyone was a little puzzled why this senior cared so much about Yu Ting's private affairs, but they didn't dare to raise any objections.
"I don't know, I think she will. Yu Ting was also a little dazed for a while.
"I can help you do the math, do you think you need it?" Bai Su asked.
"This... Yu Ting listened, and his heart felt a strange smell.
Of course, he wanted to know if Lan Xiao still had him in his heart, if he had already passed away, he wouldn't go to Qiyun Mountain this time to find her. But it seems that he is unwilling, and at the same time he is looking forward to it and being afraid.
Everyone didn't understand why Bai Su was so enthusiastic, but if they thought about it, they could understand that maybe she was thanking Yu Ting, and it was not good to come up with something to thank him now, so it could be regarded as helping him once.
"Then I'll leave the seniors in charge. Qin Xuewan suddenly spoke, and stroked Yuting's hand.
"Well, good. Bai Su smiled and nodded: "But it's best if I need some tokens from you, especially the things you have with her." Of course, before I can help you do the calculations, I have to get out of this predicament first. ”
"Oh, can the seniors come out on their own?" Yu Ting asked as soon as he heard this, came back to his senses.
"The eight demon beasts have been destroyed by you, and this trapped array is already very weak, and there is no threat to me. When I rest and recover for a while, I can break it. Bai Su replied.
"I wonder how long the seniors estimated it would take?" Yu Ting asked.
"I don't know, I think it might take months, maybe longer, after all, the bottom of the tower still has a lot of influence on me. Bai Su thought for a moment and replied.
"Although a few months is not a long time, it is not good to make Great Elder Bai Yi wait for a long time, she only gave us three months. Now that they have been exceeded, she must be very anxious, so why don't I try to help my seniors. Yu Ting said immediately.
"Oh!?" When Bai Su heard this, he was pleasantly surprised, and his eyes showed satisfaction: "Nephew Yuxian still cares about my daughter very much." I know that Yu Xian's nephew has a high level of formation attainment, and your help should speed up my ability to relieve this difficult formation. ”
Everyone was a little confused by Bai Su's look at Yu Ting, but now was not the time to think about it.
"Then please tell me some of the circumstances of this predicament. Yu Ting didn't think much about it, so he nodded in response.
He knew that the first thing now was to rescue Bai Su so that he could return to the ground as soon as possible.
"Yu Xian, you have already seen that the space at the bottom of the eight-sided Linglong Pagoda where we are now is composed of this altar and these eight pillars. Bai Su nodded, and began to introduce the situation here: "It has formed an eight-sided exquisite array. Each pillar is a formation flag, and I am in the position of the eye of the formation. These eight array flags can borrow all kinds of power, and this is naturally with the help of the power of these eight demon beasts. Not only can it trap the monks, but it can also turn into these demon beasts to attack. ”
Bai Su then introduced: "After the two sisters of Luan Feng entered this bottom, they never expected that eight shadow demon beasts appeared on these pillars. At that time, I didn't know the mechanism of action of this eight-sided exquisite array, so they unfortunately fell. The people of the Xu family must have set up that these demon beasts would not attack me, but would only slowly consume my mana, and the other was the mechanism of not letting outsiders come to save me. Because according to my ability at that time, if these eight shadow demon beasts attacked me, I could destroy them all, so that these eight-sided exquisite array would not be able to trap me. ”
Yu Ting listened, nodded, and glanced at Tang Yu and Xiaoice.
"Now that you have destroyed the eight demon beasts, there is not much energy in these array flags, but with brute force alone, you still can't break it. So the easiest thing to do is to break it when I regain my strength. Bai Su continued.
Yu Ting looked at the eight pillars, pondered for a moment, and said, "Senior Bai, I have already checked these eight-sided exquisite arrays, and found that the runes on each pillar are slightly different. According to the runes I studied when I opened the entrance to the first layer before, as well as the magic provided by my predecessors, I see that these eight pillars, or these eight array flags, correspond to different attributes, which is why the eight demon beasts that are included are all of different attributes. ”
"Well, Yu Xian's nephew is really extraordinary, and I didn't expect this either. That's true. Bai Su showed a hint of joy and nodded his head again with an approving look.
"Now that I know the attributes of each pillar, I can try to speed up the dissipation of the spiritual power in it. Yu Ting continued.
"Oh, really!?" Bai Su was pleasantly surprised when he heard this.
"I'm not sure, after all, none of these runes are something I understand. Yu Ting pointed to a pillar: "But since this interface, the rules should be similar." ”
"Well, you have a point. Then ask Yu Xian's nephew to do it. Bai Su even agreed.
"Okay, if I don't know anything, I'll ask my seniors. Yu Ting nodded.
"This is natural. Although I'm not a formation mage, I still know a little bit about the way of formation. Bai Su responded with a smile.
Yu Ting didn't say anything more, nodded his head, and then walked over to one of the pillars and examined it carefully again.
During the inspection, he would occasionally ask Bai Su.
