Chapter 229: Encountering a Strong Enemy
Since there are still some areas in the Yanyan Valley where the karmic fire cannot be weakened, and these areas also happen to divide the Yanyan Valley into four parts, the trialists who come here can pass through the valley from the four parts and go to the Sage Forest.
The area that Chen An and his party climbed was the western area, where there were a total of twelve statues of the sage, accounting for one-third of the number of statues of the sage in the entire sage forest, so there was no shortage of trialists from other areas here to come over and compete for the stone of the sage.
The statues of the twelve sages are quite peculiar, not built with ordinary qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, but enshrined in the twelve zodiac signs, and the sage stones produced by the twelve zodiac sages are different and have special abilities.
But only in the academy will the abilities of these philosopher's stones be developed, and these abilities may be mediocre, or they may allow the person who holds them to ascend to the sky. Therefore, in the annual trial, the competition for the Philosopher's Stone is the really important link.
Under a statue of a rat sage holding a book in his hand and looking like a human, a group of rats with a faint white light scurried all over the place. They are covered with a transparent shroud, so that if they collide, they will disappear into a light smoke.
As each mouse dies, a bright yellow prismatic stone falls out of their body.
Outside the cover, the three of the Nine Emperor Princes stood quietly by the statue of the Rat Sage and admired all this, Sun Tiandu looked slightly sideways, looked at a big man who was leaning against a tree not far away and closed his eyes to recuperate, and whispered to the Nine Emperor Princes: "Your Highness, what is the origin of this person, Qian Wanneng is not easy to deal with, and we didn't bring a servant here, so will it cause trouble to cut off the beard." ”
The Nine Emperors smiled slightly and looked at Sun Tiandu, who bowed his head and did not dare to speak.
"In this forest, who else can be more noble than this king. Even if the king doesn't go to them for trouble, who would dare to come to the king's trouble. ”
"What Your Highness said is very true. Sun Tiandu agreed, his expression was still a little worried, Xie Lingmu was relieved, pointed to the sage stones all over the ground and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that those few country turtles still have some value, we have been looking for a long time to get a few stones, and they can easily find a bunch of them." ”
The Nine Emperor Princes smiled, played with the shadowless shuttle in his hand, and said leisurely: "My Great Xia Kingdom is full of talents, and there has never been a shortage of talents, no matter how amazing the talent is, it is not to sell all the skills to the emperor's family." ”
Sun Tiandu remembered that his family had spent a lot of effort to invite the offerings, and he deeply agreed, but Xie Lingmu was a little envious, he only had a small mansion in the imperial capital, or Xie Lingyun's family business that had worked hard for many years. There are no servants in the house, let alone any enshrinement in the nursing home.
At this moment, there was a high-pitched roar from the cover in front of them, and everyone saw a short gray figure flash overhead, and then a huge stone crashed down.
There was a thud on the surface of the cover, and then there was a crack, and the short figure quickly jumped onto another tree after throwing the stone.
"Hmph, I don't know if I'm alive or dead, can't we really do anything about you? Xie Lingmu was hit on the forehead by the stones that collided and shattered, and he was so angry that he shivered all over, and the chill slowly dissipated, condensed into ice, and chased towards the gray figure.
Unexpectedly, the gray figure was extremely slippery, and between the agility of the figure, Xie Lingmu's pursuit flashed again and again. And in the end, after avoiding a key wave of attacks, he stood at the top of the hood very arrogantly, with his back to everyone, bent down, and twisted his ass towards Xie Lingmu.
Xie Lingmu was even more angry and rolled his eyes, laughed angrily, and sneered: "Hehe, animal, this is what you asked for." ”
As he spoke, he closed his eyes, and two ice ridges appeared in the center of his eyebrows, and an ancient and powerful aura emanated from the ice edges, and the surrounding environment instantly dropped to the freezing point, or even lower.
Feeling this biting chill, the big man by the tree suddenly opened his eyes, his face was solemn, and he stared at Xie Lingmu silently. The Imperial Road Dragon Qi in the body of the Nine Emperor Princes automatically protected the body, and then pulled Sun Tiandu to jump to the branch behind him, looking at the scene in front of him from a distance, the scene that was completely frozen in ice.
Sun Tiandu's eyes widened, he felt the chill around him carefully, and wondered: "Why is it so cold around me, but I feel a warmth." ”
The Nine Emperor Princes put their hands behind their backs and looked at Xie Lingmu who was suspended in the air below, and the greed and longing in his eyes were just like the eyes when he looked at Xie Lingyun. It's just in this look. One less scorching heat.
"Only with the extreme cold ice of the world can the extreme heat of the world be sealed. Either way, it will be a sacrifice to the king. The Nine Emperor Princes stared at Xie Lingmu, and the chill around his body was like a substance, like looking at something in his bag.
Sun Tiandu was shocked in his heart, and in his eyes when he looked at Xie Lingmu, in addition to shock and envy, there was also a trace of sameness
Below, even if the creature was dexterous and extremely fast, it was difficult to escape in the face of Xie Lingmu's map-like attack, and it was frozen solid, and it was actually a gray monkey.
With a bang, the gray monkey ice sculpture smashed on the cover, bounced a few more times, and rolled to the ground.
Xie Lingmu smiled, stepped forward a few steps, and was about to rub his foot against the gray monkey, but suddenly felt a killing intent sweeping from the oblique side. He hurriedly took a few steps back. The sound of gold in his ears was clear, and the four sharp swords almost flew over his ears and temples.
"Chen An!" Xie Lingmu gritted his teeth and said.
"Chen An, you are really here. The Nine Emperors said indifferently, looking down condescendingly.
Chen An glanced up at the Nine Emperor Princes and said with a smile: "Your Highness is standing so high, it's too dangerous, let me help you." ”
The Nine Emperor Princes immediately felt that something was wrong, and at this moment, the four golden swords went and returned, turning in unison in mid-air, with a graceful posture, piercing the branches standing at the feet of the Nine Emperor Princes.
With a click, the branch broke and fell, and the Nine Emperor Princes held Sun Tiandu and fell to the ground steadily.
"Your Highness, you see, it's better to be safe on the flat ground. Chen An smiled, but his hand broke the cover slowly, and Hao You behind him didn't need to command, the blue field under his feet spread out, and he quickly cleaned up the Sage Stone on the ground at an incredible speed.
"Oh, you have a heart. The Nine Emperor Princes were not angry, his expression was indifferent, at this moment he was a little more generous than what Zhijiang Yuancheng had seen.
Chen An was quite a headache when he saw this, he thought that the Nine Emperor Princes would attack in a rage, or leave angrily, but at this time, he was indifferent, he was already a little more than a city, and it was even more difficult to deal with.
"Your Highness, you are not cute. Chen An sighed with emotion.
"Chen An, you are looking for death!" Xie Lingmu pointed at Chen An and said angrily.
"People will always grow, and one day, maybe this king will think you will be cute too. The Nine Emperor Princes smiled at Chen An's jokes, looking like they didn't care at all.
"I don't have to wait that long, I can be cute now. Chen An held his face with both hands, stars in his eyes, and made a very girlish movement. Hao You was staring at the Creation Mouse looking for the Sage's Stone, but he didn't see it, Xuanyuan Xing and Qian Wanneng looked uncomfortable and creepy, only Zhu Yao felt that Chen An's movements were not in place enough, and he couldn't show such a cute effect.
The Nine Emperor Princes were stunned for a long time, a little dazed by Chen An's sudden action, he had never seen a man behave like this, and he didn't know how to react for a while. Sun Tiandu glanced Chen An up and down with interest, not knowing what he was thinking, but the light in his eyes made Chen An feel the only danger.
The big man under the tree took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and forcibly suppressed the desire of some kind of strong class in his body.
"Chen An, you are simply too deceitful!" Xie Lingmu said word by word, as if he was full of anger.
"Oh, why did I deceive you?" Chen An said curiously, he thought that he was not targeting Xie Lingmu alone from beginning to end, but everyone on the other side, and he was very puzzled to see Xie Lingmu so aggrieved at this moment.
"Don't talk nonsense, let's die!" Xie Lingmu was even more ashamed when he saw Chen An's unbelievable look, the ice behind him was condensed into wings, and a long sword was gathered in his hand, and he rushed towards Chen An with boundless cold.
"You're too big, aren't you? Sun Tiandu mocked, "Look how you die!"
Seeing this situation, Chen An was not in a hurry, stood in place leisurely, and said slowly: "Divine power! Summoning the Powerful Technique!"
Then the figure suddenly disappeared, and the figure of Qian Wanneng appeared behind him, Qian Wanneng's face had an evil smile, Zhu Yao raised his head proudly on the top of his head, and then his fat hand was dashing. Large pieces of yellow rune paper flew towards Xie Lingmu.
Following Chen An's example, he said loudly: "Divine power! One hundred taels of gold explosion technique!"
Seeing this, Sun Tiandu, who was not far away, changed his face greatly, and scolded in a low voice: "Your uncle's! It's this repetitive move again, can you change something new!" and then made a gesture to escape, but was stopped by the Nine Emperor Princes, "Your Highness?" Sun Tiandu was shocked, but in the end he still stood still with the Nine Emperor Princes.
Under the tree, the big man's eyes flashed violently, and a strange pattern faintly appeared on his back.
Ahead, Xie Lingmu saw this scene, his face turned green, and he hurriedly gathered all the chill around him, condensing a huge ice shield in front of him.
Bang bang bang!
The sound of continuous explosions sounded, and the ice was broken all over the ground, Xie Lingmu looked at the man in front of him in disbelief. The power generated after the explosion was originally enough to break the ice shield, and the people behind the ice shield would also be seriously injured, but at this moment, they were all completely blocked by the person in front of them, and they were all unscathed.
"Great Sun Blazing Sun! This is the level that can only be achieved by the Red Sun Realm of the Blazing Sun Gate!" Sun Tiandu's eyes showed surprise and laughed out loud, "Haha, don't be afraid now, no matter how many cannons the fat man throws out, all of them will be absorbed by this Great Sun Blazing Sun." ”
"Phew, what you threw is a cannon!" Qian Wanneng heard Sun Tiandu's voice and retorted dissatisfiedly, "This is called a cannon thrown by the master, you know no." ”
Sun Tiandu snorted disdainfully, not planning to have a verbal dispute with Qian Wanneng.
The Nine Emperor Princes called Xie Lingmu back, and then instructed the big man: "Just leave them here for three days, and then come to this king, and this king will give you what you want." ”
Dahan's face was overjoyed, and he turned to the Nine Emperor Princes and said respectfully: "Your Highness Xie, the grass people should be in charge..."
Before he could say anything, there was a series of loud bangs behind him, and then it stopped abruptly, and with the smoke and energy generated, it was all sucked into it by the great sun behind the big man.
Dahan slowly turned his head, looked at Chen An, who was hurriedly hiding something behind him, and said coldly: "Your Excellency's sneak attack behind your back is a bit despicable. ”
Chen An laughed dryly twice and replied: "Ahem, I just see that your back is too hot, let you put two cannons to cool down, don't you mind." ”
Dahan sneered and said nothing, the Nine Emperor Princes turned around, dropped a sentence, and left with Xie Lingmu and Sun Tiandu. Then, a pale yellow curtain of light rose in all directions.
"Your value to me determines my valuation of you, so I can do it myself. ”
"Break the sky in the sand of the Lower Sun Gate, enter the Xuan Great Perfection, and count you as unlucky when you meet me, so be my stepping stone obediently. Behind the big man, the sun shines brighter, approaching step by step.
Chen An was not afraid, geared up, and said with a smile: "Brothers, go up together and beat him!"
