Chapter 105: The Fire of Hexi
Located in the northwest of the Longyuan Continent, Daying Sea covers an area of more than two-thirds of the entire Longyuan Continent, and is the heaven, hell, or prison for all demon beasts, demon cultivators, and human cultivators who practice water system exercises.
Overlooking this vast and treacherous sea area from a high altitude, it is like a large galaxy distribution map, with countless islands of all sizes dotted around, such as birds, such as running tigers, such as cattails, such as flowers and trees, like giant hammers... The shapes are different, and the soup is difficult to count. Most of them are still inhabited by mortals, and there are also some islands that are obviously shrouded in protective arrays, ranging in the hundreds, and there are many deserted and uninhabited islands, some active volcanoes are spitting yellow-black smoke, red flames, and countless golden fire grains drift with the wind and smoke, and they are clearly extinguished.
"It's... How can I find my grandmother?" After Long Bao learned that Long Lin still couldn't contact Yun Shuixi, he pulled his ears in annoyance on the Sky Breaking Swallow.
Suddenly, a loud shout rose from under his feet: "Who is the bold madman who dares to fly an aircraft over the Great Ying Sea!"
A silver light flashed in front of everyone's eyes, and a pair of slender guards with silver armor and silver helmets holding silver halberds pointed at them and asked. The pair looked almost identical, with fine silver scales on their cheeks. Mao Chrysanthemum sent a message to Long Lin: "They are swordfish essences. As he spoke, he stretched out his pink tongue and licked his mouth, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he was ready to eat them without saying a word.
Long Lin hurriedly put away the Sky Breaking Swallow, threw two medium-grade spirit stones at each party, and then apologized: "I am from the Great Qin Kingdom Spirit Rhino Sect, I don't know how to fly in your place, and I still look at Haihan!"
The two swordfish essences received the spirit stone, their eyes showed surprise, and their expressions slowed down a lot, and one of them said, "Those who don't know are not guilty... What are you doing in Dayinghai?"
Long Lin roughly explained the meaning to them, and the two swordfish spirits looked at each other in surprise, as if they were hesitant, and muttered for a while in the language of fish that no one could understand, and one of them shouted to Long Lin: "You wait here, we will report to the captain!"
After speaking, he turned into two silver arcs of light and shot arrows towards a misty island.
This is two hours. Long Lin had been observing the islands with the guard, and found that not long after the swordfish spirit left, golden lines flashed between the islands, and these connections were intermittent, some followed by others, and soon connected the hundreds of islands, which looked quite beautiful and mysterious. But since then, there has been no movement, and there is no sign of opening a certain protective array, obviously they do not regard the Lingxi Sect as their own, but from this point of view, it is very likely that Yun Shuixi has taken refuge in this place, otherwise with Yun Shuihan's concern for his sister, he will at least show up to ask about the situation. Looking at this situation, it seems that Yun Shuihan was afraid that the Lingxi Sect would send someone to take her back to the sect, so he simply refused.
Long Lin had no choice but to take Long Bao and them to find a volcanic island with ash smoke and land. This island is extremely hot, the fields are full of red and hot rocks, the smell of sulfur is strong, there is no grass, not even insects and ants are gone, except for the occasional sound of sparks, it can be described as a dead silence, which is suitable for resting and cultivating.
For Long Bao, playing and cultivating are completely the same thing. As soon as he settled, he hurriedly organized Hu Wangcai, Mao Juhua, Xue Zhanyi and Yi Xinliu to fish and catch crabs on the beach, and also used the three-petal flower-shaped Emperor Xiu Boat that Long Lin captured from the demons of the Witch Shadow Demon Sect. This strange-style ship has added a lot of functions after Cui Rutie's careful transformation, and it is many times more powerful, such as the three petals can be closed and become a large flower bud that is invulnerable to water and fire, one pointed and the other blunt, can dive underwater or drill into the sea of fire, and can withstand all attacks below the God Transformation Realm...
Long Bao's luck was good, he captured a lot of krakens who had already been knotted, except for a small part that was freshly roasted and eaten, most of them were sent to the small world by Yi Xinliu in batches, and those ant demons were responsible for complex work such as cutting Dan, skinning and cutting meat. It makes sense that he is so diligent, after all, the number of ant demons has been expanding, and the consumption of rations is very amazing, and every extra bite makes Li Duoshou Li Steward's account book thicken, and his heart muscle spasms... It's really stressful.
Moreover, this battle against the Stygian Clan also made Long Bao see the value of his group of ant soldiers. In fact, demon cultivation has the advantages of demon cultivation, they have innate strength, such as the perception of the laws of space, superhuman hearing, smell, vision, no need to refine the body, etc.; However, in Long Bao's view, simplicity of mind is an outstanding advantage, at least it is easy to control, worry-free.
The sea is sometimes gentle, like an endless piece of warm royal blue velvet, and sometimes it is violent, and the wind and waves are enough to subvert all rock-solid existence. Long Lin practiced knives in the crater every day, and Long Bao led people to fish in the nearby sea... Gradually, they began to like this kind of life that wrestles with creation, sometimes surprises and harvests, and is full of infinite changes.
Long Lin felt that the flame aura of the crater here was very different from the Yanbing Peak of the Spirit Rhino Sect, and there was a faint aura of gold and wood fighting, escaping in wisps, like a huge refining furnace.
He let Xue Zhanyi feel it at the mountain pass, and Xue Zhanyi closed his eyelashes and said with his long brown-green eyes: "This seems to be the fire of Hexi, this place must have been sealed before, but now the seal shows signs of falling off, so the fire is a little leaking, and it is mixed with the leylines here, and it is starting to become turbid... That's how I feel. ”
Long Lin's cognition of Hexi's fire comes from books, he only knows that this fire is the most suitable for refining weapons, and the gods used it to forge artifacts in ancient times; According to Cui Rutie's usual comments on the fires, his Vermilion Bird Fire is the most vicious and fierce, and the Wood Spirit Fire of the snow-stained clothes is the most dense and inexorable, but when it comes to refining weapons, it is still the most suitable Hexi Fire, and it is relatively easy to adjust and control... However, he had never seen the real Hexi Fire either.
After Cui Rutie came out of the small world, he looked around the entrance of the cave for a long time, and his face was surprised, but when he entered the cave entrance and probed down slightly, he felt the unbearable scorching heat, which actually burned his coat and turned into nothing.
Like an iron pellet that had been bounced out of a super slingshot, he escaped out of the crater in black and fell to the ground in embarrassment. Long Lin hurriedly stepped forward to check if he was injured. Xue Zhanyi said with a little disdain on the side: "You dare to explore the fire of Hexi at this level... Of course, I am not afraid of that fire, and I quite like the taste, because it is also a kind of wood fire, which is what you human race call the fire of Bingyin, and I dare not go down because there is gold gas underneath, very powerful, very powerful gold gas!"
Long Lin's heart moved, and he planned to go and see what was going on in person. Cui Rutie obstructed and said, "Master, don't be in danger! I think it's better to completely destroy that seal first, so that the power of this flame will be lost." ”
Long Bao, who was fishing, learned that there was a new discovery on the island, and hurriedly rushed back with Hu Wangcai and Mao Chrysanthemum.
Cao Hengli also came out of the small world and studied this volcanic seal array. He also often came into contact with and studied the fire attribute formation in the Heavenly Array Sect, and he was much more powerful than Cui Rutie in repelling fire.
Although it was much more powerful, he also went in and out repeatedly, not daring to stay in the crater for a long time, and it took dozens of days to see the outermost formation clearly and thoroughly. According to him, this large sealing array runs along the wall of the volcanic cave, vertically down, I don't know how deep it is, it is very amazing, and every other section there is a small horizontal sealing array, composed of a pair of semicircles, like invisible covers, from the outside to the inside, step by step. Cao Hengli sighed, I don't know who has such a big hand!
Long Bao said disapprehantly: "Leng Lingxi, the founding ancestor of the Lingxi Sect, has this ability, and the Fire Mountain Range under our Yanbing Peak was sealed by her alone. ”
Cao Hengli shook his head while pondering: "This is definitely not the production of Leng Lingxi. He extended the seal formation in his memory into a jade plate and showed it to Long Lin, and Long Lin felt terrified as soon as he touched it, this kind of seal was familiar, similar to the wind lock array in the sandstorm land in the dark place. The difference is that the Wind Locking Array is white on a black background, and this kind of rune pattern is black and white, it is difficult to say whether it is black on a white background or white on a black background, which is strange and ancient, exuding a gloomy and desperate atmosphere like hell;
This kind of treacherous seal is indeed difficult to associate with Leng Lingxi's righteous and bright fire attribute exercises.
Cao Hengli suggested that it would be better to start with the broken part of the seal and destroy it, so that it might be possible to get twice the result with half the effort.
