Chapter 38: The Chamber of Secrets
In the evening, Ye Xun and Senior Brother Gu walked back to Nanyu Hall from Hanzhutan, entered the backyard, and a burst of fragrant fragrance of pills came to their noses, only to see Senior Brother Gao Jinfeng sitting cross-legged beside the alchemy furnace, closing his eyes and meditating, seeing Ye Xun and the two of them open their eyes slightly and then close them again, the beating flames in the Dan furnace flashed and reflected on Senior Brother Gao's face.

Ye Xun looked left and right and didn't see the figure of Shizun, as if he sensed that Ye Xun was looking for Shizun, Senior Brother Gao Jinfeng said leisurely: "Shizun is in retreat in the secret room, I don't know when I will come out, you two don't bother!" ā
"Oh!" Ye Xun and Gu Tianlun said in unison.
Ye Xun scratched his back spoon, and sighed secretly in his heart, the old man of Shizun either went out or went into retreat, and it was rare to see him a few times in a few months, and he didn't know how long he had been in retreat when he came back this time.
As time passed quietly, Ye Xun and the two chatted from all over the world, while Senior Brother Gao was meditating like a wood, ignoring Ye Xun and the two of them, and gradually, Ye Xun and Senior Brother Gu also fell asleep on the ground.
I don't know how long Ye Xun and the two of them slept, and suddenly "touch!" An explosion sounded like thunder from the basement of the Nanyu Palace.
Ye Xun and Senior Brother Gu immediately woke up and jumped up, the two rubbed their sleepy eyes and looked at each other, while Senior Brother Gao next to him also opened his eyes suddenly, stood up from meditation, and stared at the practice room.
Just when Ye Xun and Gu Tianlun were shocked.
Senior Brother Gao said: "Master is cultivating, you don't have to be surprised!" ā
"Oh!" Ye Xun and Senior Brother Gu looked at each other for a moment and said in unison.
But there was a faint vibration from the basement, if it weren't for Ye Xun's huge spiritual sense, it would be difficult to feel, just when Ye Xun wanted to fall asleep, his master's secret room was a scene.
In the secret room, here seems to be an upside-down bowl, this secret room is not big, there is a big tree carved on the wall, the branches and leaves of this big tree almost fill the wall of the entire space, and in these tree trunks, human faces are highlighted, at this time, Gu Changfeng is sitting cross-legged on the ice bed, the four corners of the ice bed are connected with four vines, Gu Changfeng raised his right hand and waved forward, and suddenly this small secret room was full of white light, and the power of the seal was permeating it, and the luminous spar on the top of his head flickered, making the small secret room, the light was sometimes strong and sometimes weak.
At this time, Gu Changfeng's face was pale, and there were three-color marks on his pale face, the colors were green, yellow, and black, and these three-color marks extended from the center of his eyebrows to his chest like a centipede, especially one of the black marks slowly stood out between the slight movements, as if it was about to break away from his face, and the color seemed to fade at this moment.
"Who is it? Who are you? Why do you treat the old man like this? How many years...... How many years...... You not only sealed the soul of the old man, but also sealed the memory of the old man...... Let the old man only have three hundred years of memory, what was it three hundred years ago? Who the hell is the old man? How many years has it been sealed? Gu Changfeng screamed miserably, but his voice couldn't come out of the secret room.
Gu Changfeng's eyes seemed to be about to erupt flames, and his body was filled with a strong evil aura, which carried a deep resentment, and at this moment Gu Changfeng was like a flat boat in the angry sea.
Gu Changfeng bit the tip of his tongue and spurted out a mouthful of blood forward, when the blood was sprayed forward, green, yellow, and black appeared, Gu Changfeng's right hand raised and grabbed it in the air, and the blood mist was instantly sucked by his right hand, but when he saw that the blood returned to his hand, it was red and purple, and there was nothing peculiar.
"Even the old man's blood has been sealed!" Gu Changfeng stared angrily at the ball of blood in his hand, then looked up to the sky and hissed, and pressed the ball of blood in his right hand against the center of his eyebrows, and suddenly the black mark on his face moved sharply, as if it was about to break out.
But even so, the black mark was like a maggot attached to the bone, and it still did not break out of the skin.
At this moment, Gu Changfeng's small eyes showed a ruthless color, his right index finger swiped forward, and an arc-shaped white light flashed towards the wall, and a tree trunk on the wall was suddenly cut a hole, which was a finger wide and a foot long, and the red and green slurry instantly flowed out from the open opening, and at this time, there was a terrible scream on the wall, and the faces changed, this change was a painful color, the branches and leaves of the whole big tree, the trunk slowly shook on the wall, and it was very weird, The walls appear to be covered with fine sand, and under the fine sand are unidentified objects swimming.
"Corpse Eater...... Spirits! As Gu Changfeng's deep voice came out of his mouth. The slurry flowing out of the wall was getting faster and faster, and in an instant, the entire floor of the secret room was soaked with red and green slurry, and when the slurry rose to a height of half a foot and was about to submerge half the height of the ice bed, Gu Changfeng put his hands on his chest and kept pinching the trick.
After a while, human heads without facial features suddenly appeared on the ground soaked in slurry, densely packed and almost filled with liquid surface, and these heads kept swinging, and a miserable and resentful scream came from those heads, and then, green plants grew on top of people's heads, this plant only had two leaves, if Ye Xun was here, he would definitely recognize that this was the exorcism tree that Gu Changfeng planted on his chest when he healed his injuries.
But the difference is that these exorcism trees are taller than the one Ye Xun had at the beginning, and even the purple flower bones between the two leaves had already bloomed purple flowers, and when the petals were fully opened, purple silk threads shot out from the stamens, straight to Gu Changfeng's face, and the black marks on Gu Changfeng's face were glued together, and the dense and countless silk threads almost covered Gu Changfeng's face.
"Pull it out for the old man!" With Gu Changfeng's low roar, those purple silk threads immediately straightened, and the other end of the silk thread connected to the black mark seemed to be pulled by countless people, the power of a single silk thread seemed to be very small, but these dense purple silk threads were straightened at the same time, and its power was earth-shattering, under the simultaneous pulling of countless purple silk threads, the black mark was pulled out of the center of his eyebrows by as many as several inches, Gu Changfeng's face showed endless pain, and even his expression was distorted.
"Bump!"
"Bump!"
"Bump!"
......
There was a sound as if the tight rope was broken, and after a while, the purple silk threads at the center of Gu Changfeng's eyebrows broke nearly half, and when the silk threads broke, the exorcism tree on the human head in the slurry immediately shrank, retracted into the human head and disappeared, and the black mark on Gu Changfeng's face was originally pulled out by a few inches, but at this moment, as the silk thread continued to break, the mark gradually retracted into the flesh of the eyebrows.
"Failed again? The devouring power is still not enough, just one seal is so difficult, then how difficult will the second and third path be? Gu Changfeng smiled without smiling, his expression was gloomy and even more intense, staring blankly at the shrinking exorcism tree on the ground.
"Get out, get out, get out!" Gu Changfeng roared.
As Gu Changfeng's right hand continued to wave, the originally diffuse slurry on the ground suddenly flowed back to the open opening on the wall, and it had been completely sucked into the trunk of the tree in less than a few breaths, and even the opening slowly healed, as if nothing had happened.
"Five years, five years at most, the old man can't wait, this ice spirit has already shown signs of awakening!" Gu Changfeng flicked his sleeves and stood up violently.
"Xun'er! Although your progress is fast, but it is far from the level required to be a teacher, I originally only wanted you to become a family and use the pure spiritual power of the spirit period to nourish the corpse-devouring spirit baby, but that damn spirit slave is to help you break the forbidden art, it seems that the only way to be a teacher is to forcibly improve your cultivation, so that you can enter the foundation building period within five years, and then become another 'fruit man' of the old man's corpse devourer, and then help the old man break this damn seal! ā
Gu Changfeng muttered to himself, and conjured up a rustic-looking bronze mirror from his hand, this bronze mirror was carved with lifelike patterns of ten thousand beasts, and there was nothing peculiar about the mirror surface in the middle of the bronze mirror, only a few circles of small runes composed of seals spread out in the mirror in a rippled shape, and the center of the mirror was a black silk thread, like a closed eye, but it gave people a sense of dizziness after a long time of careful viewing.
"Companion, the old man calls you a companion, just because you are the only memory of the old man, only whenever I see you, can I find a trace of familiarity with the old man on it, but unfortunately this trace is only within three hundred years, but even so, the old man still can't see through you for hundreds of years? Why? ......" Gu Changfeng's withered right hand gently stroked the mirror, and his eyes showed a love-like look, which was full of endless attachment and thick bitterness......
Half a month later, on this morning, the morning sun slowly rising in the east bloomed with a soft glow, Ye Xun did not go to Hanzhutan to practice today, nor did he go to the Dao Spirit Monument to understand, but only accompanied the two senior brothers to alchemy in the backyard of Nanyu Palace, bathing in the morning sun.
Suddenly, Master Gu Changfeng slowly walked out of the practice room, although his face was haggard, his eyes were bright.
"Congratulations to the master for getting out!" Senior Brother Gao Jinfeng, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, next to him, immediately said.
"Congratulations, Master!" Ye Xun and Gu Tianlun were also pleasantly surprised.
"Hmm!" Gu Changfeng looked around at the three of them, and said for a moment: "I have been in retreat for half a month as a teacher, is there anything wrong during this time?" ā
Ye Xun and Gu Tianlun looked at each other for a while, and their eyes were fixed on Senior Brother Gao, because everything in the master was handled by Senior Brother Gao, and when he heard the question, Gao Jinfeng said: "Except for the daily picking, alchemy, and offering pills, there is nothing to do, just ......."
"Just what?" Gu Changfeng said lightly.
"It's just that today, Great Elder He Qing is very concerned about our Nanyu Palace, and there are still a few powerful spiritual senses investigating during this time." Gao Jinfeng hesitated for a moment before saying.
"Hmm!" Gu Changfeng nodded slightly, and did not continue to ask, but there was a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth, and no one could understand the meaning of this sneer.
But when Ye Xun heard this, his brain couldn't help but feel hot, he thought of Yan Chengao's body, Ye Xun sighed secretly in his heart, he should have come after all, and he didn't know how much evidence they had, his only hope now was that Shizun would correct him, a registered disciple, as soon as possible and give him a real identity.
