Chapter Seventy-One: The Blood Barrier Falls Short
"Of course!" Tianyue raised his head, "I don't think you know, on that small hill outside Gangneung City, there are corpses everywhere." β
"What!?" Xiao Yuan was suddenly startled!
"We also found it when we came to Dongchen, but we thought it was too weird, and the cause of death of those corpses was very strange, so we didn't make a noise. β
Xiao Yuan lowered his head deeply when he heard this, and his thoughts instantly became confused...... If the purpose of bringing blood ghosts to Jiangling City from the Annihilation Palace was to destroy the banquet of the Nan family and seize the Dusheng Mirror, then why did they kill so many people in Dongchen and let the blood ghosts absorb human blood? Wouldn't this reveal their identities soon?!
What did they want to do? Xiao Yuan became more and more puzzled, could it be that the purpose of destroying the Hegong Palace was not to cross the Shengjing at all?!
For the sake of safety, Xiao Yuan took Tianyue to meet Nan Fengzhu and explained the matter to him, Nan Fengzhu also felt very nonsensical about this matter, according to what Tianyue said, there should be a lot of corpses outside Jiangling City, but for such a long time, there is no one missing or even disappearing in Jiangling City!
The deeper he thought about it, the more strange Nan Fengzhu felt, so he secretly instructed Gu Qing and some other reliable servants in the mansion to go with him to the hills and barren mountains outside Jiangling City with the disciples of the Qilin Sect and the Liuxin Valley to see what those corpses looked like, what they had to do with that blood ghost, and what they had to do with that soul stick!
It wasn't until sunset that Qian Fanmeng and Qin Mulan finally came to the woods on the eastern outskirts of Yishuang City, where there was still a white mist, and the two of them shuttled through the woods for a long time before they found him under Su Qing's guidance.
Su Qing was standing next to a tree at this time, as if an enchantment had been set up, not only was there no mist around it, but a circle was clearly formed, Su Qing stood in the middle of the circle, and turned to look at Qian Fanmeng and Qin Mulan.
"I heard that you got the Dusheng Mirror?" Qin Mulan took the lead in stepping forward, Su Qing looked at him quietly and said, "The Dusheng Mirror, it's not in my hands." β
"That ......" Qin Mulan was stunned for a moment, and her confused gaze suddenly fell on Qianfanmeng, she walked in front of him step by step with elegant steps, glanced at him, and then looked at Su Qing and said: "He didn't get the Dusheng Mirror, but he found something more important than the Dusheng Mirror." β
"What the hell is that, can you stop being foolish, tell me quickly. Qin Mulan said a little impatiently, Qian Fanmeng couldn't help but smile slightly, and then said, "It's the key that can help us find and urge the Dusheng Mirror." β
"Key?" Qin Mulan was confused all of a sudden, Du Shengjing, there was actually a key?!
Seeing this, Su Qing slowly cast a spell from his hand, and after a while, a small crystal that was a little black but transparent appeared in his palm, Qin Mulan's body trembled suddenly, that is!"Prism!?" He couldn't help blurting out! The key to the Dusheng Mirror is actually a prism!?
"What the hell is going on?" He had a gloomy face, he didn't know anything about everything in front of him, they had already investigated before, the Dusheng Mirror was a silver ice mirror that could reflect the other side of a person, but no one had ever seen this mirror, so when Qianfanmeng told him that the Dusheng Mirror was not a mirror just now, he was not so surprised, but now-
The Dusheng Mirror is one of the six major artifacts of the Nine Spirits, and the key used to open it is actually ...... The first layer of the law of the demon realm, the prism of the shallow edge realm!?
As soon as Su Qing put down his hand when he heard this, the prism disappeared from then on, he turned to look at the sunset in the west, and slowly said: "Actually, the south sky is shallow, and it is the Dusheng Mirror." β
"What?"
"What?"
Qian Fanmeng and Qin Mulan both exclaimed in surprise.
"Didn't you say before that the Dusheng Mirror is still in the Nan family, as long as you find this key, you can hold the Dusheng Mirror firmly in your hand, and now you say that Nankong is the Dusheng Mirror, what's going on?" Qianfanmeng asked aloud, looking puzzled.
Su Qing felt that they were too verbose, so he explained the reason for the matter to them one by one: "This place is the place where Nankong was once trapped here, he broke into the woods in the eastern suburbs for no reason, and was trapped here by the stealth barrier here for a few days for no reason, these things, the people of Qilin Gate did not investigate these things at that time, and he himself did not think anything strange. β
"When I came to Yishuang City, I laid a stealth enchantment here, leaving a prism so that I could know the situation of Yishuang City at any time, as for Nankong Qian being trapped here, I didn't care, later, at the banquet of the Nan family, I saw Nan Fengzhu inadvertently put a black bracelet on Nan Kongqian's body, this matter, caught my attention, what makes me even more strange is that I know that the people in the Annihilation Palace are coming for the Dusheng Mirror and Nankong Qian, and Nan Fengzhu actually handed over the Dusheng Mirror to Nan Kongqian's hands so blatantly, and asked Xiao Yuan to take him away, don't you think, it's very strange hereοΌβ
Qin Mulan and Qian Fanmeng were very confused when they heard it, looking at each other, and they were extremely puzzled by what Su Qing said, "Since you said that Nankong Qian is a Dusheng mirror, what is that black bracelet?"
"Blood barriers. Su Qing said lightly, but it surprised the two of them again, "Nankong's shallow brain is the omniscient and omniscient Dusheng Mirror." β
Qin Mulan and Qian Fanmeng were both stunned in place, their minds were in chaos, Su Qing looked at them with a blank and bewildered look, and simply explained the matter-
"The Dusheng mirror of the Nan family has never been an independent thing, the Dusheng mirror was born as the treasure of the Nan family, and it is the treasure of their Nan family for all generations, and the reason why it can be passed down forever and not fall into the hands of outsiders is entirely because of the Du Sheng mirror, in the hands of the heir of the Nan family, whenever the heir of the Nan family is fourteen or fifteen years old, the Dusheng mirror in the mind of the previous master of the Nan family will slowly disappear and enter the body of the new master of the Nan family on its own. β
"But it's a pity that, as far as I know so far, there are only three ways to urge the Dusheng Mirror, the first is to use your own blood as a guide to cast a spell into the body to urge the Dusheng Mirror; the second is that there is a prophetic secret technique in the Qilin Gate, if you learn this prophetic secret technique, you can completely open the Dusheng Mirror, and you can freely obtain everything you want to know whenever and wherever you want; the third is to cultivate the law of the demon world, only when the cultivation realm just stays in the prismatic stage of the shallow edge realm, you can cast a spell to urge the Dusheng Mirror, otherwise, no matter how high the cultivation is, it will be in vainγ β
"According to what you say, then everything we have obtained about Dusheng Mirror before is fake?" Qin Mulan looked at Su Qing in disbelief, he nodded, "No one knows more about Dusheng Mirror than Nan Fengzhu, naturally, if he doesn't say it, then no one can know." β
"In that case, what is the function of the Blood Barrier?"
"Of course, it is the shallow edge realm that is isolated from outsiders, as long as the prism appears, the Dusheng mirror will be unconsciously attracted, Nanfengzhu gave Nankong a shallow blood barrier at that time, presumably he is also worried, the disciple of the cultivation of the Extinction Palace in the shallow edge realm happened to conjure up the prism to attract Nankong shallow, and in this way, the Dusheng mirror was completely exposed. β
"Then it seems that when I left just now, I should have taken Nankong Qian with me! It won't be all down now, how can we explain it to the palace master now!" Qian Fanmeng began to regret it.
Su Qing said to her calmly: "Even if you catch Nankong Shallow, it's useless." β
"Why!"
"First, Nan Fengzhu is still alive, and the Dusheng Mirror has not completely faded from his mind; second, Nan Kongqian has no cultivation, and the Dusheng Mirror has not completely existed in his mind, so it is of no use to him or us; Third, don't underestimate the power of the Blood Barrier, it is a protective barrier connected by flesh and blood, once the Blood Barrier is destroyed or damaged by external forces, the Du Sheng Mirror will also be silent for a period of time because of this, and there is no way to urge it. β
"So, if you want to get the Dusheng Mirror, you can only wait for Nankong Qian to start cultivating, wait for the Dusheng Mirror to completely exist in his mind, and then cast a spell to make him take off that black bracelet, attract him with the Demon Realm Prism, and control him, right?"
After a long time, Qin Mulan said in frustration.
Su Qing nodded, "Yes." β
It was as if a stone had slammed into his heart, Qin Mulan's whole body suddenly became extremely heavy, he had been planning for so long, he thought that he could succeed in one day, but he didn't expect that the previous information was all wrong, Nan Fengzhu, that old fox, was able to hide the truth of the Dusheng Mirror so deeply! But...... He frowned slightly, and his suspicious gaze suddenly fell on Su Qing-
"How do you know these things?"
Qin Mulan raised his eyes and looked at Su Qing suddenly, Nan Fengzhu had hidden it so deeply, even the people from their Destruction Palace had investigated for so long and had not found the slightest flaw, but Su Qing could know so many things with just one prism and one bracelet, this was too incredible!
The corners of Su Qing's mouth hooked, and he glanced at them, "I'm the one who survived the Great War of Gods and Demons to the present, guarding the demon spirit." β
"In that case, why didn't you say it before!"
"I didn't know that the southern sky would be attracted to prisms. He said it as a matter of course, Qin Mulan was speechless, and before his words fell, he turned into a cloud of green smoke and disappeared, curling green smoke and melting into the white mist.
Qin Mulan and Qian Fanmeng looked at his departing figure, and they both felt a trace of fear, the two of them stood in place for a long time, for a long time, as if they had been greatly hit, and after a long time, Qian Fanmeng slowly spoke, and his tone was obviously worried, "You say, will he already know...... Young palace master ......"
