Chapter 40: The White Mist of Death
For several days, the shuttle had been flying slowly eastward.
Zhao Yi, on the other hand, has been concentrating on cultivation in the pavilion, and under the wrapping of the rich spiritual energy, he has already developed seven spiritual apertures, all of which are filled with spiritual power water.
After a few days of getting along, Zhao Yi found that he, a master who had only been worshiped for a short time, was really good!
Although he usually likes to nag, he knows everything about his questions, and he also puts forward the points of attention in their own cultivation and teaches him seriously.
There was no master at all, and when it came to interesting topics, the two talked to each other like friends.
But he found one thing, as long as he talked about Brother Zhao Qian, Shizun would always gossip behind his back and disdain all kinds of things. Zhao Yi pondered what contradictions should be between the two, but it did not affect his relationship with Zhao Yi.
"These are also the reasons why Brother Zhao Qian asked me to worship him as a teacher!"
Zhao Yi is not bad to think about it this way, Shizun's ability is not lower than that of Brother Zhao Qian, and to some extent, it even surpasses Zhao Qian.
"No wonder it is not unreasonable to say that the master is harsh in choosing apprentices. I'll just follow the master honestly and practice."
Zhao Yi opened his eyes and muttered: "Cultivation must be a combination of work and rest, and there is a degree of relaxation, I can't rush for quick success." ”
At this time, he stopped practicing, stood up, and walked out of the attic. When I came to the bow of the boat, I stretched out my head to look at the land of Shenzhou below, and suddenly felt a sense of relaxation and joy.
Under the thin clouds, the cities inhabited by various human races, the mountains and rivers where wild beasts are noisy, and the crystal clear rivers are all slowly retreating in his pupils, and Zhao Yi is gradually immersed in this beauty.
At one point, he suddenly turned his gaze to the front, his brow furrowed slightly. In the extreme distance, a black dot appeared, and it was rapidly growing in size, and he gradually saw that it was also a flying spirit weapon, several times larger than the one he was riding.
The speed was so fast that it didn't seem to notice them, and it rushed straight at them, and in the blink of an eye, it was in front of you.
Seeing that the two were about to collide together, Zhao Yi was terrified, and hurriedly turned around and shouted urgently to the master in the pavilion: "Master, hurry up, ......."
The voices that followed were drowned out by the sound of a great howling wind, and they were only discovered when the great shuttle approached.
Fortunately, they changed direction in time to avoid a collision, and then flew backwards without looking back.
The strong wind made Zhao Yi have to hold on to the jade railing, and the entire hull swayed, and it took a while to stabilize.
"What's going on?"
Luo Jinghuan walked out of the pavilion, and at this moment, three more flying spirit weapons flew around them.
Zhao Yi said: "The disciples don't know either, but they seem to be in a hurry!"
As they spoke, another flying boat flew towards them.
Luo Jinghuan hurriedly used his spiritual power to shout to the few people on the flying boat: "Brother Dao, what's wrong with you, why are you in such a hurry?"
The flying boat flashed, and a frightened voice came, "Run, there is the white mist of death ahead!"
"What? how could this thing be in this place!" Luo Jinghuan let out a loud shout, his eyes trembled, and hurriedly looked in front of the flying boat.
Zhao Yi also took advantage of the situation, as if there was a vast white cloud floating towards them, and the speed was like chasing wind and electricity.
In the blink of an eye, those clouds and mist engulfed them with the momentum of the raging waves, including the few flying boats that had escaped before, all of them were chased up, without exception.
Just when Zhao Yi's shuttle was covered by white mist, a sea of spiritual power appeared behind Luo Jinghuan, and the spiritual power poured wildly, forming a light curtain on the surface of the shuttle to block the invasion of these white mist.
Zhao Yi saw that the outside of the light curtain had turned into a white expanse, and quietly opened the holy pupil to look again, and found that those so-called white mist were actually extremely fine white beetles. If it weren't for the presence of the Holy Pupil, he wouldn't have been able to see it with his naked eyes alone.
They are densely packed throughout the sky, as many as the sand of the Ganges. He heard the sneering sound, and then looked at the light curtain, and found that those insects were actually lying on the light curtain, opening their four-petaled jagged insect mouths to gnaw on the spiritual power shield of the master.
"Master, what the hell is this!"
"Holy Worms, also known as Purifying Worms, we usually call them the White Mist of Death. ”
Luo Jinghuan continued to infuse spiritual power into the light curtain, making up for the gnawed places, and continued: "But this thing shouldn't appear here!"
Zhao Yi couldn't help but ask, "Then where should it be?"
"In the Tower of the Mother of Heaven in the Central World. ”
Luo Jinghuan looked at the white insect mist and said in a deep voice, "It is rumored that these holy insects were cultivated by the Upper Realm Insect God in order to fight against the great enemy. But after the First World War, the insect god died, and no one could resist these insects. They wander around and devour creatures when they see them, hence the name Death White Mist. Later, they were subdued by a senior master and sealed them on the second floor of the mother tower of the Tower of Babel. Could it be that something happened to the mother tower? caused them to rush out!"
During the conversation, the sea of spiritual power behind Luo Jinghuan gradually depleted.
He took out the Snow Lotus Pill and swallowed it in one gulp, and the huge medicinal power immediately turned into surging spiritual power, continuing to pour out to maintain the stability of the light curtain.
After a while, Zhao Yi saw that Shizun's forehead was already sweating, and the light curtain was already weak in several places. I heard him say, "Go to the attic, and fetch the scrolls that are placed on top of the bookshelves." ”
"Good!"
Zhao Yi quickly ran into the attic to find the painting scroll, while Luo Jinghuan looked at the weak points in a daze, and said, "I hope those defensive arrays can hold up until they disperse!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a creaking sound in the weak spot.
"It's over!It's too late!!"
In the attic, when Zhao Yi just got the scroll that his master said, he suddenly heard the sound of glass breaking, and then the shuttle boat shook.
His heart sank to the bottom, and then he heard the screams of his master, and when he hurriedly ran out, the 'white mist' had already invaded Zhao Yi's eyes, and it would devour him in the next second.
But at this critical moment, a soft white light suddenly emanated from his chest, blocking out all the mists of death.
Zhao Yi was suspicious, took out the piece of residual jade tied with a red rope in front of his chest, and before he could react, the piece of jade floated up and shone brightly.
At the same time, in an extremely distant place, a scavenger in the depths of a cave, turned out an old wooden box, opened it one after another, and a piece of residual jade appeared in front of his eyes. The remnant jade gradually emitted a milky white halo and floated.
The scavenger poked his hands, looked happy, and said excitedly: "It seems to be a baby, and this is a fortune!"
......
On the top of a majestic mountain, a woman stands on a white jade platform. She has a peerless face like jealousy, her skin is flawless like snow, her eyes are bright and her teeth are bright, and there is a trace of heroism between her eyes.
It is also strange to say that she does not have the delicate spirit of those red sleeves, but has the chivalrous spirit of a woman in the rivers and lakes, who can be as cold as frost or as beautiful as a peach and plum.
A piece of white remnant jade slowly floated up from her jade fingers, emitting a soft white light.
Her face was full of joy, and her red lips moved slightly, "White Lotus, I'm coming to you!"
......
At the same moment, in a barren forest, the earth shook and the dust and mist filled the air, enveloping a part of the forest.
In a trance, I saw a giant beast covered in cyan scales swimming in the fog, knocking off the surrounding ancient trees one after another.
In a moment, the fluctuations stopped, the earth stopped shaking, and the dust and mist gradually dissipated, revealing a green snake thirty feet long.
It was devouring a one-horned bull with its mouth open, and the green skin at the snake's mouth kept wriggling with the slight movement of the snake's jaws, swallowing more than twice the size of the snake's body.
The snake's body flashed with blue light, and the huge snake body quickly became smaller, transforming into a cyan light cluster, and a boy about ten years old walked out of it. There are still many cyan snake scales remaining on the white and tender skin, which is very demonic.
He stretched out his long tongue with a forked tip to lick the blood off his mouth, and suddenly felt something in his heart, and saw a piece of remnant jade floating up from a pool of blood behind him.
......
And in a vast land of smoke and waves, looking intently, the temple is hidden in it.
In the temple on a certain mountain, a man with sword eyebrows and tiger eyes and a lofty spirit sat in the main hall, and the moire robe on his body dragged on the dusty ground.
A hint of coldness appeared in his eyes, he looked at the remnant jade suspended in front of him, and said lightly: "The inheritance of the Holy Lotus One Vein is not going to return to our One Vein!"
In two other remote places, there were also two pieces of remnant jade floating in front of different people.
Seven pieces of remnant jade were suspended in the air in seven different places, dripping and spinning, echoing from afar, alluding to the fragmented parts.
The eyes of the seven people were all focused on the remnant jade in front of them, and the expressions on their faces were different, some were doubtful, some were apprehensive, some were excited, and some were depressed......
The soft white light became brighter and brighter, gradually becoming dazzling, and suddenly brightened. All the remnants of the jade disappeared into a white expanse with the people in front of them.
Zhao Yi only felt that his eyes lit up, and then he couldn't see anything.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a primeval forest!
Surrounded by towering thousand-year-old trees, the branches of the trees are intertwined, and the flourishing branches and leaves stretch out like turquoise clouds, covering the blue sky tightly.
Occasionally, a ray of sunlight fell, and then the remnant sun was cut into mottled pieces by the leaves on the forked branches below, casting a few pillars of light in the smoke of the forest.
Under the damp foliage of the ground is often slippery, soft mud and rotting wood.
As far as the eye can see, most of it is covered with green moss.
Clumps of vines and a mess of creeping plants made it more difficult for Zhao Yi to walk.
"Master, ......", Zhao Yi took a deep breath and shouted loudly.
The loud voice reached deep into the forest, gradually becoming smaller, and there was no response for a long time.
