Chapter 540: Heavenly Fire
It's just that by now, the treasure light on Xie Yunshi's body has become more and more dim, and it won't take more than half a day for her jade ruyi to be refined by the flames around the stone forest, and she herself will be captured. Gu Yan couldn't help but breathe, fortunately, it wasn't too late for him.
The seven people were all hidden in the clouds and mist, and they didn't notice Gu Yan standing above their heads, Gu Yan raised his hand in the air, and dozens of zhang long golden light thunder and fire smashed down, and immediately swept away the clouds below, revealing a large bare stone forest.
Seven people also appeared around at the same time, they were all wearing strange clothes, their appearance was high-spirited and ancient, in the middle of the seven people, the tall middle-aged man in the village, with yellow curly hair and long beard, looked very powerful and domineering, he suddenly saw a flame falling in the sky, he was suddenly startled, and shouted: "Who are you?" ”
Gu Yan's movements were extremely fast, she sent out a purple Luo Heavenly Fire, sweeping away the surrounding clouds, and then Ziyun Gui fell towards the stone forest, the seven people glanced at each other, but they didn't make a move, just watched Gu Yan rush towards the stone forest.
Gu Yan quickly fell in front of Xie Yunshi, Ziyungui turned into a round of purple light on her own, blocking the top of her head, and then she raised her hand, and took the dim jade Ruyi down, and asked, "You are Yunshi?" ”
Xie Yunshi has been serving by Gan Biwu's side, and he has a good relationship with Lin Zitong, he has seen Gu Yan, and he can't help but be surprised: "How did the elder come?" ”
Gu Yan said: "I want to go to the Tibetan Sword Villa, passing through Nanpu, I heard that something happened to you, so I came to take a look, you go out with me first." With that, he took her hand and wanted to leave.
Xie Yunshi only then seemed to remember something, and shouted: "Not good! Quickly pushed Gu Yan outside, "Let's go!" ”
Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, and before she could react, she saw Xie Yunshi's body, and suddenly a wisp of flame flew up on its own, swirling around her body. Then it suddenly exploded, and countless flames enveloped her body, and the flames soared into the sky, and a huge beast's head appeared in the air. Some resemble the heads of giant pythons, spitting crimson letters, and their faces are hideous.
At the same time, a loud daxiao sound sounded outside, and the seven people shouted at the same time: "Stay!" Immediately, six flames rose into the sky, and Gu Yan saw that among the seven people. Except for the patriarch who was empty-handed, the other six people were all sitting cross-legged on the ground, and on their chests, all hung a red bead the size of a pigeon's egg, and in the center of each bead, there seemed to be a strange python swimming.
The appearance of this strange python is very strange, and it bears some resemblance to the dragons drawn in the mortal world. It has four claws, horns on its head, and thick scales on its tail. At this time, what appeared above the heads of the six people was the limbs and body of the strange python, as well as the tail, and the soaring flames quickly ignited in the air, and the red fire instantly filled the sky for a long time, and the huge shadows gathered and scattered in the air, gathering into a strange python with a missing head for a while, and then scattered again. Ye Chilian, who was standing in the center and was guessed by Gu Yan as the king of the Yechi clan, shouted at this time: "Where is the head, and it is not in place?" ”
The head hanging in the air. Suddenly, she was about to fly towards the outside of the stone forest, Xie Yunshi's whole body turned red in an instant, and it seemed that all the essence was about to leave her body, and from the top of her head, a bead drilled out, and in a blink of an eye, it was about to fly through the air.
That bead. It was the same as the six people outside, as soon as she came out of the top of her head, Xie Yunshi's red skin immediately turned pale, and she was about to fall down in the blink of an eye.
Gu Yan's heart was racing, and she already knew that she had a great relationship with this bead, although she didn't know why the disciples who had been involved in the Bixia Sect since childhood had anything to do with the deep mountain wild clan tens of thousands of miles away, but at this time, she couldn't help it, as soon as she raised her hand, the purple flame soared, and a big hand appeared in the air, and she firmly grasped the bead at that time.
As soon as her hand touched this bead, she felt a blazing breath, penetrating directly from the meridians between her five fingers, it was an extremely pure, but very blazing fire aura, which made her, a person born with a fire spirit root, almost a little unbearable, she couldn't help but be surprised, this bead could actually be in Xie Yunshi's body?
Gu Yan quickly looked at Xie Yunshi with his eyes, and then he noticed: "You are actually a natural fire spirit body?" ”
Xie Yunshi was originally a civil and engineering double spirit root, and his talent was extremely high, and he had already cultivated to the late stage of foundation building before he was 100 years old, and he was one of the few disciples of Bixia Sect under Lin Zitong, otherwise he would not have been sent to Nanpu to preside over the rudder. But Gu Yan hadn't noticed it before, she was actually a natural fire spirit body?
This made Gu Yan even more strange, usually this kind of innate spirit body would only appear on the monks of the single spirit root or the alien spirit root, and Xie Yun was really a civil and wood dual spirit root, and it was not related to the fire of the five elements at all, how could it be the body of the fire spirit?
But if she wasn't a fire spirit body, she couldn't explain why this bead was in her body, if she were an ordinary person, her body would have been burned all the fires, and all the spiritual energy in the meridians would have been burned dry.
Gu Yan grabbed the bead and stood beside Xie Yunshi, although it had not returned to her body, but her face suddenly became much better, she heard what Gu Yan said, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "How can I be the body of the fire spirit?" ”
Gu Yan was just about to speak, but at this time, the wild red refining outside had already roared angrily, he summoned the head to not come, and suddenly became angry, and shouted to the people around him: "The fire spirits are gathered, and they will not be released, how do you wait?" ”
The six people on the side shook their heads in unison, "The arrow is on the string, and it can only be launched!" They shouted loudly at the same time, as if they were reciting an extremely ancient mantra, the stone forest, which was originally quiet and detailed, suddenly shook rapidly, countless stalagmites grew rapidly underground, and in a blink of an eye, they became towering stone pillars, and the sky seemed to have countless dense arrow feathers shot down, Gu Yan flicked his fingers, and Ziyungui suddenly seemed to expand dozens of times in the air, like a giant umbrella that held up the sky, blocking all those attacks.
But at the same time, the pressure around it also descended like a mountain, and countless flames instantly surrounded the place, as if they were about to burn everything to ashes.
The soaring flames passed through Ziyungui's block, and rushed into it quickly, Xie Yunshi's face turned pale, and Gu Yan said lightly: "It's okay!" She flicked her sleeves outward, and a canopy of purple flames rushed out quickly, as if a dam had been built around it, and countless flames were blocked by the violet heavenly flames, and they couldn't rush in after only a few dozen zhang away.
Xie Yunshi's face was slightly better at this time. She whispered, "Elder, the stone forest here seems to be a formation laid out by an ancient monk, and it is very exquisite. Therefore, they have not dared to open it lightly, only thinking about slowly refining me with the flames outside, and now if they want to break out, I am afraid it will be difficult. ”
Gu Yan's brows moved, she also felt that there was something unusual about this stone forest at this time, after the countless arrow feathers in the sky passed, the cyan giant trees that covered the sky and the sun rolled in. This is a five-element magic circle with a round head and tail, a natural one, and no flaws. She slightly released her divine thoughts, and she was taken aback, she couldn't sense the direction around her and the location of the array eye!
Usually the formation is fixed, and the heavenly stem and earth branches, the nine palaces and the four dimensions should be used to determine the surrounding directions. But now she couldn't sense the direction around her, south, east, west, north, west, completely indistinguishable. A name suddenly came to her mind, and she couldn't help but say, "This is the Nine Heavens Mystery Array!" ”
She heard this name from Rong Hua at that time when she was in the ruins decades ago, because in the ruins, there was also this formation.
Although the attack power of this formation is not very large, it has an extremely powerful place, that is, it can change the direction in the formation. When the formation was formulated, the arrangers used great magical powers to displace and deform the entire direction of the formation, and the four dimensions were unbalanced. Heaven and earth are incomplete, as long as you are trapped in it, the door of life and death is completely reversed, and it moves according to the will of the person who sets up the formation, and if you take a wrong step, you will be in danger of no return.
However, the disadvantage of the Nine Heavens Mile Formation is that it can only stand in one place. It uses the spiritual veins as its and is confused in the four dimensions, and unless someone pries away the entire leyline, it will not be able to break out of the formation. Therefore, it is often used in the protection of the cave, this kind of formation is mostly seen in ancient cultivation, and now it no longer exists in the world, and Gu Yan has only seen it once in the ruins. At this time, she couldn't help but wonder, what was the origin of that Gu Immortal back then?
The mystery of the Nine Heavens Misty Formation is that the direction is confused, she doesn't make a mistake, but there is no danger for a while, so she simply sat down and said, "Yun Shi, you tell me, what is going on with this matter?" ”
The bead was firmly grasped in Gu Yan's hand at this time, and the violet heavenly fire weaved a dense fire net, firmly enveloping the bead in her palm. Countless fire aura kept impacting outward, but they could never escape within the range of Gu Yan's palm.
The purple light tower firmly protected the top of his head, and countless cyan giant trees in the sky rolled down, smashing countless sparks in all directions, but they could not break through Ziyungui's protection. The faces of the people outside were all extremely gloomy, and one of them said, "As you said, the formation has been activated, why can't you catch them out?" If they really alarmed the gods, what if it was good? ”
Ye Chilian said angrily: "So what, do you want to let them go with the Fire Spirit Bead?" He slammed his fist on the ground, "We lost the Fire Spirit Bead, and we don't know if the Divine Lord will be angry, if we don't stop these culprits, once the blame is down, will we pay for your life?" ”
Several people were yelled at by him, and they didn't dare to make a sound, Ye Chilian said: "No matter how much ability they have, they can't break through the Nine Heavens Mila, if they don't come out obediently, we will directly let the seven fire dragon balls gather and refine them in it!" ”
The other six people all nodded, they sat down cross-legged, guarding the stone forest, at this time countless flames had fallen in the sky, desperately rushing towards Ziyungui, as far as their eyes could see, the woman inside seemed to be calm, and did not take the danger outside seriously.
Gu Yan asked Xie Yunshi to sit down, saw that her face was slightly better, lowered her head, and said, "This matter is ...... It's a bit inexplicable......"
Xie Yunshi actually felt very strange herself, this was simply a disaster that she had caused inexplicably. Just as Du Juan said that day, after changing the new city owner, Bixia Sect temporarily reined in and stayed in the city, and she herself was trapped in the realm and it was difficult to break through, so she had to go to Mangcang Mountain to find an opportunity.
Originally, she was also walking around aimlessly, but the periphery of Mangcang Mountain had basically been covered by those monks, and she walked deeper and deeper, and came to the vicinity of Chilian Peak.
Gu Yan couldn't help but say: "You are really not small, the demon beasts above the sixth order are rampant here, but you are really not afraid of danger!" ”
Xie Yunshi lowered his head and said: "In the Bixia Sect, there are stories about the elders when they were young, saying that you only dared to challenge the sixth-order demon beasts alone when you were in the foundation building period, and you also confronted them head-on, and everyone felt that they longed for it." ”
Gu Yan couldn't help but be stunned, but he didn't expect that he would become the object of their imitation all day long. I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, let's talk about your own business first." ”
Xie Yunshi was near Chilian Peak that day, and there was no sign of anyone, and she had only been in Banyue City for a short time. I haven't heard of the Yechi tribe yet, I just thought it was a barren mountain, but I sensed the existence of aura here, so I searched carefully around. Then I found that there seemed to be traces of aura under dozens of zhang underground, so I used the magic weapon xiangxia to open up the way, who knew that a giant python was startled.
That giant python also had at least a fifth-order cultivation or higher. Spitting flames from his mouth, the power was amazing, Xie Yun was not afraid, and fought with it for several days, and finally killed it under the protection of Yu Ruyi.
Gu Yan interrupted her at this time and asked, "Do you remember the appearance of that giant python?" ”
Xie Yunshi recalled: "Thinking about it now, it's nothing special, it's all fiery red. There are small thorns on his body and a strange horn in front of his head......"
Gu Yan let out an "oh", "This is a leech!" ”
The beech is an extremely rare monster beast. In terms of ferocity, it is not as good as those famous demon beasts, but it only grows in the place where the fire aura is at its peak, so it is often used as a treasure hunt, and it generally only grows to the third or fourth order, and its life span is over, like the fifth order or more that Xie Yunshi encountered, it is really an extremely rare thing. Gu Yan guessed that perhaps it was the extremely strong fire aura in this place that nourished such a heavenly leech.
The Heavenly Leech has a very peculiar instinct, that is, it can be in the fire spirit vein. Free entry and exit, and born with the nature of devouring fire aura, this is also the reason why many monks are willing to raise it as a spiritual pet, and will forcibly use elixir to increase its lifespan, and then help it improve its cultivation. Could it be that what Xie Yunshi encountered was a monk's spiritual pet?
But Gu Yan didn't feel like it when he thought about it. Such a spirit pet must be extremely precious, just like she treats Xiao Jiang, how could she casually discard it in the wilderness?
Xie Yun really saw Gu Yan's thoughtful appearance, so he stopped and didn't speak, and after a while, Gu Yan said, "You go on, what happens after killing this Tongtian leech?" ”
Xie Yunshi's face showed hesitation, obviously she was also a little at a loss about the scene at that time, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "The bead in the elder's hand is what I got from the belly of that leech. ”
Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, and Xie Yunshi said: "After I killed the demon beast, I stripped off its fur and removed its bones one by one, and then went to find its demon pill, but I didn't see it for a long time. ”
Gu Yan interjected and said: "Tongtian leeches only feed on fire aura, and their whole body is pure aura, mixed with the meridians, so there is no demon pill." ”
Xie Yunshi nodded, "Later, I searched for a long time and found this bead in the head of the demon beast, I was still wondering, why did the demon pill grow in the head?" Who knew that as soon as I took it out, it flew into my body on its own, as if it was mixed with the essence in my body, which startled me at that time. Later, I silently used the mental method to force it out of my body, but from then on, my body was like being under a forbidden spell, as long as this bead was three feet away from my body, I felt that the aura in my body was quickly lost, and my life was in danger. I didn't know why, so I had to take it with me and bring it back with me. ”
Gu Yan nodded, probably this was the reason why Du Juan was behaving strangely when he saw Xie Yunshi, in fact, this matter was really incredible. She looked at the bead in front of her and said in a deep voice: "If my guess is correct, this should have been hidden by the Yechi Clan, maybe it was hidden underground, but it was swallowed up by this leech along the spiritual vein, and this pearl containing incomparably pure fire spiritual energy was devoured, and as a result, it went down the spiritual vein to its brain, and it was obtained by you by chance." It's just why it stays in your body and doesn't come out of ......"
She put two fingers on Xie Yunshi's wrist, releasing a trace of aura, sensing the operation of the meridians in her body, and there seemed to be nothing abnormal, Gu Yan thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Where are you from?" ”
Xie Yunshi was a little strange, but still replied: "I am a native of Weiguo, my parents are mortals, six or seven brothers and sisters, and I am the only one with spiritual roots, so I worshiped under the Bixia Sect when I was young, and it has been nearly a hundred years. ”
Gu Yan nodded, seeing that she didn't mention it, presumably those relatives had passed away, and said, "I guess that there may be something peculiar about the bloodline you inherited, so it will attract this bead into the body." ”
Xie Yunshi said inexplicably: "My ancestors have been in the past seven or eight generations, and I have never heard of any monks appearing, they are ordinary mortals who can no longer be ordinary, what is so strange about the bloodline?" ”
Gu Yan said: "This is not uncommon, the bloodline of the monk may not be passed down from generation to generation, it may be hidden in the years, and it will suddenly occur in a certain generation." I remember the Cloud Thunder Sword Venerable of the Hidden Sword Villa, his ancestors were mortals for more than ten generations, but before that, there was once a true person who had a knot. ”
The two of them whispered softly here, but the people outside seemed to be a little impatient to wait, and a red-faced, rough-looking person said: "What are you waiting for, just let the Seven Spirits gather, and refine them directly here, it will cost so much trouble!" ”
Another person on the side said coldly: "Why are you in a hurry? Our big brother Yechi fell in love with that woman and wanted to take her back to the mountain to be the lady of the village. ”
Ye Chilian said angrily: "What did you say? ”
The white-faced man sneered, "Did I say something wrong? Otherwise, you would have been able to kill her as early as the first day, so why bother to have everyone accompany you so much? ”
Ye Chilian snorted and said, "What do you know, if I'm not mistaken, this woman seems to be the descendant of the Fire God Monarch lineage back then, and she has a hidden fire spirit root in her body, which is deeply rooted in the meridians, otherwise why do you think that Fire Dragon Ball would have entered her body?" Such a monk is the most comfortable carrier of the magic weapon of nourishing the fire system, and it is also the most suitable for our own people to multiply. Our clan, thousands of years of inheritance, descendants are getting fewer and fewer, isn't it because the innate fire aura is too heavy, others can't bear it, can only intermarry within the clan, so the talent is withering day by day, and now when you encounter such a spirit, how can you easily let it go? ”
The two of them were red-faced and almost about to move, and someone on the side came to play a round and untie the two people, but the white-faced man still said: "Now that the seven beads have gathered, it is imperative to awaken the gods, if they can't break the shield again, will they be trapped to death?" ”
Ye Chilian said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow at noon, the moment when the yang energy is at its peak, if they don't surrender, refine them!" ”
The people outside argued, Gu Yan could see it inside, but she couldn't hear what they were saying, in fact, she was not anxious, although the Nine Heavens Miluo was powerful, it might not necessarily be able to trap her, she just wanted to stop here first and ask Xie Yun for details.
Xie Yunshi also told everything she knew, after she came back that day, a few days later, when she went out, she met Hai Qianfeng to find her, and took her away without saying a word, the bead was not on her body at that time, as soon as she was taken away, she was forbidden by Hai Qianfeng, fortunately, she used jade Ruyi to protect the Yuan Shen, just pretending to be in a coma.
Later, Hai Qianfeng hit the Bixia Sect, snatched the bead, and then sent her to Chilian Peak together, she knew that there was a wild clan looking for her, and after the handover, when the wild Chi clan was negligent in defense, she suddenly snatched the bead and fled, and with the help of Yu Ruyi's protection, she broke into this stone forest in a panic. It's also strange to say that when those people saw her breaking into the stone forest, they didn't come in, but outside, calling the fire of the formation to restrain her, relying on the protection of Jade Ruyi, and spending the three days without danger. It's just that if Gu Yan doesn't come, in half a day, she will also be refined and captured.
After Gu Yan heard her finish saying this, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Haidu faction will ask us for this matter and pay a certain price, we should leave here first." ”
Xie Yunshi raised his head and saw that countless floods were rolling in the sky at this time, like a heavenly river pouring out, covering the sky like a curtain, and not seeing the sky, so he hesitated and said, "There is still a formation outside to prohibit ......"
Gu Yan smiled proudly, "Unless there is a Yuanying Cultivator who makes a move, what formation can trap me?" (To be continued)
