Chapter 32: Retreat
As the waters of the Yellow Springs River dried up, the giant-like bones and ruins of the riverbed regained their sight. Only the tip of the iceberg is left in the magnificent and gorgeous building, and countless mysterious totems seem to have come through the years, showing the world the glory it once created.
Standing by the bridge and looking at the past, it is like a magnificent battlefield painting.
Something, or what civilization once used the Huangquan River as the junction here, fought to the death, and the picture was both shocking and compassionate.
Wu Chen jumped towards the slowly expanding spatial loophole, and came into contact with the icy and biting water of the Huangquan River, as if he had stepped into an extremely cold place.
It's really cold, even colder than when I first started to practice the Extreme Cold Realm, the kind of cold that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, and the body's 2x defense buff has been working, but it seems to be broken by this bone cold in an instant.
Wu Chen stood in the icy river water and pinched his hands, the extremely cold realm expanded rapidly, and the endless cold air fell from the sky, but it was still a big deal compared to this Huangquan River water.
He tried to control the freezing of the river, and controlling the ice crystals should seal the hole, but to no avail, the temperature had already reached below zero, and the river showed no signs of freezing.
The reason is obvious, the strength is not enough to cultivate too low, and the extremely cold realm exerted by the sixth layer of the Gathering Spirit cannot even seal the 10,000-year-old true ice, not to mention the Huangquan River in this Netherworld Mansion.
However, fortunately, Wu Chen tried to feel the water of the Yellow Spring River, and found that in addition to the extreme cold, it also contained unusually rich spiritual power.
It was precisely because of the cold that the endless spiritual power in the river was sealed, and it was precisely because of this monstrous spiritual power that Gu Yuan was able to turn it into a soaring dragon.
"I've had to retreat for a while. He muttered to himself, and suddenly sat cross-legged in the icy water, and the spiritual power rolling in the river turned into a raging wave that frantically poured into his body.
This level of cultivation is almost the same as forcibly improving one's cultivation, with the advantage that it takes effect quickly and has no side effects, while the disadvantage is that you need to endure pain and torture that is unbearable for ordinary people.
Even when enduring this pain and suffering, he still needed to constantly manipulate the water of the Yellow Spring River to block the spatial loopholes, so as not to run out of any powerful demons during this period.
It's really a chore, who let the little boy help him so much? As the saying goes, eat people with a soft mouth and short hands.
......
Outside the secret realm of the bridge, everyone appeared in the cultivation square unharmed, and they held their breath and stared at the purple and cyan light and shadow floating in the air, as if they were waiting for someone to come out of it.
However, the entrance to the secret realm of the bridge has been destroyed and can no longer be entered.
The only one who was absent from the scene was Jing Zhe, in fact, as early as when the Holy Spirit and Gu Yuan fought against each other in the secret realm of Nai He Bridge, Jing Zhe already felt bad luck.
As for how the Blood Sect will deal with the encirclement and suppression of the next four forces, that is all for later.
"That guy won't be able to come out, right?" Chu Ziyue stood in the crowd, her eyes flickered, she couldn't see her joy or anger, but she was faintly worried.
Qian Duoduo was big-hearted, and after coming to the cultivation square, he circled around Lu Fan and said, "I am Wu Chen's brother, just give me the reward, and I will collect it for him." ”
"What? Can't you believe me? Look at my face as a kind Lord. ”
"Well, let's send out the basic reward first, I can't even open the pot now. ”
It's not that he doesn't worry about Wu Chen's accident, but the confidence in his heart is far greater than worry, what kind of person is Wu Chen, a master who slays demons and destroys demons, and something as powerful as a little boy has to look at Wu Chen's eyes, you guys who have been rescued are worrying about it here?
The most confused in the crowd were the two little Taoist priests, they didn't go to the Immortal Realm, so they didn't know that Wu Chen saved these people, and they were in a controlled state when they were at the end of the bridge, and they didn't remember anything when they came out.
At this moment, the two of them stood in the crowd and stared at the purple and cyan light and shadow, which had no other meaning, just to follow the crowd.
"Senior brother, we have to see when they won't all fall for evil, right?" the tall and thin man leaned over and whispered.
"You ask me, I'll ask whom, but it's impossible to be evil, with the two of us here, which demon and monster dares to approach!" the horse-faced young man glared.
"Why don't you ask what they're looking at?"
"Tsk, don't ask, don't you ask, doesn't it seem that we are uneducated? Just watch it together, anyway, everyone has two legs to see who can consume whom!"
"Okay!"
As time passed, night fell quietly, just as the previous picture of a hundred ghosts walking at night did not appear, and the Huiyin Sect, which had been chaotic for several days, finally returned to a rare calm.
Lu Fan and the others came to the edge of the mountain, and their sharp eyes swept over the entire sect, and the nine peaks were in full view, and the peaks were hidden under the vast starry sky, standing majestically.
"Don't wait, that guy is comfortable in there, trust me. The purple kite raised her eyelids, and a flash of agility flashed in her eyes.
"It's a life-saver, although the cultivation is a little low, but it's quite handsome. Jiang Lingxue, who rarely saw her, also teased.
"Yo Yo Yo, Miss Jiang is not like your style, has my handsomeness and talent been ignored by you all along?" Song Yunze smiled on the side.
"Don't wait, I will send someone to guard the entrance of the secret realm, and no one is allowed to approach," Lu Fan took a deep breath and turned to look at the other three, "Three days later, the Blood Sect Gate will gather, it's time to make a decision." ”
"Although you don't treat me like that, Brother Lu, I still have to kindly remind you," Song Yunze said, "Whether Elder Gu Cang has the heart to seek power or not has to be carefully decided. ”
"I'll tell my father about this," Lu Fan nodded.
"Don't make a public announcement about the situation in the secret territory this time," Jiang Lingxue said, "There is already a panic in the city, and it doesn't hurt to know less." ”
"Don't worry, I'll explain this later. Lu Fan said.
"Then there is no problem, can you go home and sleep?" the purple kite covered her mouth and chuckled, turned around and walked slowly down the mountain, leaving only a fluttering purple dress.
"Miss Jiang, aren't you going to give us a ride with a flying sword? Song Yunze said.
"I was going to say, who made the purple kite run so fast?" Jiang Lingxue said softly, jumping into the cliff, and after a while, a flying sword quietly rose into the air, carrying her away with a smoke.
"I still have me, you're too faceless. Song Yunze was panting heavily, and after taking a deep breath, he could only hurry down the mountain, without Jiang Lingxue, at least there was a purple kite to accompany him all the way.
A moment later, the entire cultivation square was also emptied.
Lu Fan kept his promise and gave everyone ten Gathering Spirit Pills as a reward for participation, and emphasized that they should not tell others about the things in the secret realm, and it was best to rot in their stomachs like this.
