Volume II: Chapter 180: Green Matter

Ma Xie climbed up the protruding stone steps, and climbed for about five hours, until he finally saw the top of the pillar.

"It's so high, what's on top of this pillar?" Ma Xie grumbled as he climbed to the top of the pillar.

There was a pile of green flames on the top of the pillar, and behind the flames were several people standing, and the horse evil who came up from behind them did not attract the attention of these people.

Ma Xie fixed his eyes and saw that it was the three of the Jade Venerables surrounding Jin Mushui and Yuan Wuji.

Jin Mushui hugged Yuan Wuji, and it seemed that Yuan Wuji was seriously injured.

"Damn, big brother, we're all going to die here if we continue like this!, let's just kill this kid!" Venerable Jin said to Venerable Jade.

The Jade Venerable said: "Boy, I will ask you one last time, if you will hand over that thing! Although I don't like you, I don't want to offend the Stone City Lord because of you, as long as you hand over the spirit stone, we will let you go!"

Jin Mushui hugged Yuan Wuji and said, "What a fart! I'm not a dead end if I leave it to you! I won't let the three of you pass smoothly even if I die!"

Seeing this, the Jade Venerable was heartbroken, and struck Jin Mushui's head with a Zen staff, and Jin Mushui forced his eyes, waiting for this final blow.

Who knew that after a long time, the Zen staff had not yet fallen, Jin Mushui opened his eyes and found a familiar figure standing in front of him.

"Horse ...... Ink beard?" Jin Mushui quickly realized who the person standing in front of him was.

Ma Xie's mask had already been burned, and at this moment he was standing in front of the three Jade Venerables with his true face, and the Jade Venerable was still looking at this young man, and when he heard Jin Mushui's words, he suddenly realized: "Moxuyou, your kid actually came up too, hahaha! It's a pity, it seems that this will be the grave of your two brothers—oh no, the three brothers." I really didn't expect you to catch such a strange beast. ”

When the three of them saw that Ma Xie - that is, Mo Xu You - arrived, they quickly set off and surrounded Ma Xie.

"Brother Mo! this place is weird! You must not use too much aura. Jin Mushui reminded: "If you want to pass through here, you must retain a lot of aura! These three guys are just to preserve their strength and let me make them coolies!"

Jin Mushui's words reminded Ma Xie and also deterred the three Jade Venerables.

It turns out that there is a strange formation on top of this pillar, where aura can be used, but every time it is used, it has to consume twice the usual aura and cannot be replenished.

And the method of using this black space is hidden in this pillar, and only by using the aura to collect a green powder scattered on the top of the pillar can pass through the green flame at the top of the pillar.

Jin Mushui and Yuan Wuji came to the top of the pillar early, they first discovered the secret of this pillar, and there were people doing it on the pillar not far away, so the two of them consumed their spiritual energy to collect that green powder.

But just when they were concentrating on collecting, the three Jade Venerables broke up, and the Silver Venerable sneaked up on Jin Mushui without saying a word, and Yuan Wuji happened to see it, so he blocked the palm for Jin Mushui.

But Yin Venerable was already the strength of the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Realm, and this palm was to put Jin Mu Shui to death, and Yuan Wuji collected this powder too much, so he was seriously injured.

When Jin Mushui reacted, he was already surrounded by three people.

The three of them noticed the strangeness of this space, and their aura seemed to be isolated, so they didn't make a rash move.

Jin Mushui told the three of them that if they easily consumed the aura here, then they would face a huge crisis next, so the three of them did not make a move, but just forced Jin Mushui to hand over the similar green powder that he had collected.

Jin Mushui threw a green glow to Ma Xie, it turned out that it was what he had collected, and this was also the key to reaching the next pass through the green fire.

Ma Xie took this heavy thing and looked at the three Jade Venerables vigilantly, knowing the strange situation here, no one was willing to make a casual move.

"Since you're here, let's just make peace, we're more of a squad, let's not waste our aura here!" said to Ma Xian, although he was confident that he would take down these two boys, he really didn't want to consume more spiritual energy.

Ma Xie was also thinking about countermeasures, now he was most concerned about Yuan Wuji's body, although this guy had a special physique, but after all, he was hit by the palm of a fifth-layer cultivator of the Qi Refining Realm, so he must not be careless.

The two sides were at a stalemate, and the Jade Venerable thought for a moment and said, "Let's go and find this green powder, it's really not cost-effective to fight here." ”

Ma Xie thought about it, this was indeed not the place to fight to the death with the Jade Venerable, he had to ensure Yuan Wuji's safety first.

"In that case, then you can go down!" the Jade Venerable took a step forward and said, "I don't think you're stupid enough to fight with me for territory here!"

Ma Xie didn't expect the Jade Venerable to be so aggressive, and he actually wanted to occupy the pillar where Jin Mu Shui and Yuan Wuji arrived first, and he was about to step forward to theorize, when he suddenly heard Jin Mu Shui behind him say: "Ma Xie, let's go!"

"Hehe, find a place to heal your little pet! Lao Tzu's poison is quite merciful, as long as you are willing to use your aura to heal its wounds, you should survive. The Silver Venerable said to Ma Xie with a smile.

Only then did Ma Xie understand that there was poison on the palm of the Silver Venerable, and Jin Mushui must have discovered something to stop Ma Xie.

"Okay, I see. Ma Xie retreated to Jin Mushui's side, he looked at Yuan Wuji, only to see that Yuan Wuji's eyes were closed, the fur on his body began to dry up, and his mouth kept spitting white foam, which was obviously a sign of poisoning.

"Jade Venerable, I will definitely avenge this revenge!" Ma Xie said through gritted teeth.

Jade Venerable said: "It depends on whether you have this ability! I advise you to go down quickly, there is no way to replenish the aura here, and your little pet will die soon." But when you save him, maybe I'll already get the Crimson Sword!"

Ma Xie and Jin Mushui stood up and retreated to the periphery of the pillar, and now, they could only retreat first.

"Let's go, Brother Jin!" said the horse.

Jin Mushui nodded, and the two jumped off the pillar.

At the moment when Ma Xie jumped into the air, he suddenly felt a huge fluctuation coming from behind him, and he looked back and saw that it was the Jade Venerable who rushed to him and made a strong palm!

This palm condensed a stream of aura into a group and rushed towards Ma Xie's chest, and Ma Xie reflected it in time, changing the position of his body in an instant, and this huge palm force just passed by.

"Jade Venerable!!" Ma Xie roared resentfully as he fell.

"Boy, don't come up if you go down!" the Jade Venerable smiled proudly at the pillar, and a green ball of light appeared in his hand!

Only then did Ma Xie see clearly that this thing was the green powder that Jin Mushui and Yuan Wuji had worked so hard to collect!

It turned out that the Jade Venerable and his good at manipulating the aura, his sneak attack on the horse evil was fake, and it was true to use the aura to steal the green substances in the hands of the horse evil.

Between the gasps of this move, Ma Xie did not find out the purpose of the Jade Venerable, and could only watch as the Jade Venerable took the green substance for himself.

"Damn! Damn!" There was a cloud of anger in Ma Xie's chest, but it was a pity that he and Jin Mushui had fallen far away, and the shameless face of the Jade Venerable gradually disappeared from his field of vision.

After landing, Ma Xie and Jin Mushui hurriedly checked Yuan Wuji's injuries, but fortunately, he did not receive multiple external injuries, but this poison was a little tricky.

Ma Xie tried to input the aura to Yuan Wuji, and he felt that there was indeed a strange power in Yuan Wuji's body, which was entrenched in Yuan Wuji's meridians and internal organs.

So Ma Xie carefully manipulated his aura and continuously transported the aura into Yuan Wuji's body to fight against that power.

After encountering the aura, the power was weakened a little, Ma Xie was very happy, it seemed that this method was effective, so he continued to input the aura, and Yuan Wuji gradually stopped breathing.

"Ma Xie, change me!" Jin Mu Shuidao, they found that this was still restricted by that strange formation, and he was afraid that Ma Xie would overconsume the aura on Yuan Wuji's body.

"It's okay, didn't it take a lot of aura for you to collect that green powder? or I'll do it!" Ma Xie rejected Jin Mu Shui, and then he knew why the Jade Venerable said that they might not see each other again, it turned out that he expected that Ma Xie would definitely cure Yuan Wuji of poison, and this also required a lot of spiritual energy.

Yuan Wuji's injuries gradually improved, his mouth no longer foamed at the mouth, his fur also regained its luster, and his eyes gradually opened.

"Horse Evil...... You're all right......" Yuan Wuji said the first thing he said after opening his eyes.

Ma Xie wiped the man on his head and said, "It's okay, I'm fine." ”

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the scene when he first saw this little guy, and unconsciously this man and beast had been together for such a long time, perhaps because Yuan Wuji had grown up among humans since he was a child, and Ma Xie had always regarded Yuan Wuji as a human and a good brother in his heart.

Seeing that Yuan Wuji actually thought of himself first after waking up, Ma Xie was still moved in his heart, this strange beast from another world was much cuter than many humans.

Yuan Wuji gradually recovered, and the three of them sat together and told each other about their experiences after separation.

"Who is that mysterious person? Could it be a hidden master guarding this mysterious space?" Yuan Wuji was very curious about what happened to Ma Xie.

Ma Xie shook his head: "I don't know, he didn't say anything to me, he just helped me break through, and the rest of my body doesn't seem to have undergone any changes." ”

"That's the rest, it's all about that! We were able to go from the third layer of the Qi Refining Realm to the middle of the fourth layer all at once, and the strength between us suddenly stretched out. Jin Mushui said enviously.

"It's a pity that in such a secret realm, we are still not the strongest, and this strength is still not enough. Ma Xie said to Jin Mu Shui: "According to what you said, none of those who enter this palace are simple. ”

Jin Mushui agreed, the Silver Venerable, who didn't look good, was so vicious when he made a move, if it was himself, he might not be able to bear that palm, after all, Yuan Wuji's body was really not weak, it just looked thin.

After the three of them repaired, they still felt that they could continue to climb the pillar, and in this space, it seemed that they could only continue to move forward.

At this moment, the surrounding black flames suddenly began to move, and they moved from all sides to the center.

It turns out that in this space, you can't stay for a long time, you can only collect green matter through the green flame, otherwise, you can only be engulfed by this black flame!

"Action! We have to go up!" Ma Xie made a quick decision, put Yuan Wuji on his chest, and then climbed up the other pillar with Jin Mushui.

This time, because of the threat of black fire, it took Ma Xie and Jin Mushui two hours to climb to the top of the pillar, and then they found a disciple of the Xuanmen Sect lying here.

"What's wrong with him?" said Ma Xie walked over to check.

The man's face was pale, soaked with sweat, and Ma Xie touched his neck, which was as cold as water, as if he had died of exhaustion.

"Maybe his aura isn't enough for him to collect so much green matter! Even if he ends up with his aura running out, he still hasn't stepped through the door of flames. Ma Xie said.

They can't do anything, this is one of the fates of cultivators, and although there are important opportunities in various secret realms, they also coexist with risks.

In this black space, the people who can survive are all people with sufficient spiritual energy, although this person is in the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Realm, but the amount of spiritual energy is not enough for him to support to the end, so he can only lie here.
