In the third layer, there were gradually more figures, but at this time, Yang Qi had already come to the fourth layer.

Under the changes in front of him, Yang Qi had already landed in the space of the fourth layer, and what came into his eyes was still desolate, almost exactly the same as the situation on the third floor, except for an altar, there was nothing left.

In addition, in the entire fourth layer, there was also a sense of dead silence, suppressing Yang Qi's mood.

Yang Qi walked to the altar, the altar light bloomed, and the fourth holy pattern rose to the sky, appearing above the altar.

Yang Qi suddenly raised his head, his eyes fiery.

This fourth holy pattern, which is very different from the first three, actually exudes an extremely gentle aura, at this time, Yang Qi's whole body under this flame holy pattern is warm, as if he is roasting a fire in the cold snow, the dead breath of this fourth layer is all dispelled by this flame holy pattern, and the depression in Yang Qi's heart has dissipated a lot.

Yang Qi's eyes flickered, and he muttered, "The flames of these four layers seem to be a little different, is it because of the difference in the Holy Patterns?

"Neither. ”

Shi Changtian opened his mouth and said: "The holy pattern is to connect the monk's understanding of martial arts with heaven and earth, so that he can successfully condense it, that is to say, each holy pattern is the monk's perception of cultivation, so the holy pattern is only related to the monk himself, and has nothing to do with external objects." These flames were just a carrier used by the Divine Fire Ancestor to condense the Holy Pattern. ”

Yang Qi suddenly said: "Then the flames of these four-story Divine Fire Towers are extremely different, is it because of the Divine Fire Ancestor himself?"

"It's his reason, and it can also be said to be the reason for the Vermilion Bird's essence blood. ”

Shi Changtian looked at the holy pattern in the sky and said softly: "Everyone in the world knows that Vermilion Bird is one of the four great divine beasts, unpredictable, the only one in heaven and earth, the supreme in fire, in charge of the fire element of heaven and earth, and also in charge of the birds in heaven and earth. At the same time, Suzaku itself has the most powerful flame in heaven and earth, and Nanming is away from the fire, burning all the evil and filth in the world, and no one can stop it. Everyone knows that Suzaku is in control of Nanming Lihuo, but they don't know that Nanming Lihuo is not just Nanming Lihuo. ”

Yang Qi was stunned: "What does this mean?"

Shi Changtian tapped his right hand, and in Yang Qi's mind, there were dots of light, like stars connected together.

"This is Suzaku!"

Yang Qi's heart was shocked, and the light that Shi Changtian lit up in his mind at this time turned out to be a bird with wings spreading, which was the Vermilion Bird.

"The four divine beasts are the four spirits of the heavens, and they are in charge of the twenty-eight constellations, while the Vermilion Bird is in charge of the seven constellations in the south. These seven houses are the well house, the ghost house, the willow house, the star house, the Zhang house, the wing house, and the house of the house, and these seven houses respectively have a mysterious flame, the well fire, the ghost fire, the willow fire, the star fire, the Zhang fire, the wing fire, the fire, the seven fires are one, and the fire is the fire of the Southern Ming Dynasty. ”

Yang Qi's eyes lit up: "So among these four layers, the flames of each Flame Saint Pattern are different, because they are one of the flames in it. ”

"Don't underestimate the scattered flames in this, although they are only one-seventh of Nanming's fire, but each flame is extremely not weak. If you want to find a flame in the world that is stronger than the flames scattered among them, you can't find a few kinds. ”

"What about the phoenix, one of the three emperors of the demon beasts, their nirvana fire, and the golden crow, which is the fifth on the list of heavenly evil divine beasts, their sun true fire, and Nanming Lihuo, which is better or worse?"

"Phoenix?"

Shi Changtian sneered, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: "What are the three great emperors of demon beasts, but they just have a little bit of the bloodline of the Green Dragon White Tiger and the Vermilion Bird, and even the phoenix doesn't even have any bloodline of the Vermilion Bird." The Vermilion Bird controls the Seven Houses in the South, but the Phoenix is just a powerful demon beast in the Seven Houses in the South, which means that the Phoenix is only the bird of the stars under the jurisdiction of the Vermilion Bird. Of course, Phoenix's Nirvana Fire is indeed very powerful, but their Nirvana Fire is actually born from the Nanming Lihuo. The fire of nirvana is formed by the condensation of ghost fire, willow fire and wing fire, and the phoenix itself represents the willow house among the seven houses in the south. ”

Yang Qi was shocked: "Nanming can actually get out of the fire of Nirvana!"

"Of course, the fire of the Seven Nights is the place where most of the flames between heaven and earth are born, and it is not so much that Nanming can separate the fire of the Seven Nights, but that it is with the fire of the Seven Nights that it can be synthesized into the Nanming Fire. The same is true of the fire of Nirvana, which is born from the willow fire, the ghost fire and the wing fire, so as long as you can master the fire of Nanming Lihuo, you will definitely be able to master the fire of Nirvana. ”

"In ancient times, the phoenix was headed by the Vermilion Bird, and it can be said that the Vermilion Bird is the ancestor of all birds, but it was only later that the four divine beasts disappeared, and the phoenix was gradually pushed to this position, so you can't find the name of the phoenix in the Tiangang Divine Beast List, because they were the little brother of the Vermilion Bird at the beginning. As for the Golden Crow you mentioned, it is really powerful, and among the fire divine beasts, it is probably the strongest under the Vermilion Bird. Jin Crow was unruly, lonely and proud, it is rumored that the original Jin Crow was not satisfied with the ranking of the Tiangang Divine Beast List, and he also challenged the Phoenix, but unfortunately failed miserably. But in any case, apart from the four great divine beasts, it was almost impossible to find a few divine beasts that could compete with the Golden Crow. ”

"The true fire of the sun of the Golden Crow is very powerful, domineering and incomparable, far from being comparable to the fire of Nirvana, because the true fire of the sun is condensed by the fire of the willow fire, the ghost fire, the wing fire, the Zhang fire and the Xinghuo, but unfortunately compared to the Nanming Lihuo of the seven nights, it is still a lot worse, so the golden crow can only be defeated to Suzaku at the beginning. ”

Subsequently, Shi Changtian slightly felt the flame holy pattern in the sky at this time: "This flame is warm and inclusive, as if it can purify all filth, and it should be the wing fire among the flames of the Seven Nights." Write down the holy sign, and go up and look at it. ”

Yang Qi nodded slightly, the black and white light in his pupils flickered, tracing the flame holy patterns in the sky one by one.

After a slight breathing, clearing the dizziness in his mind and the fatigue of lack of energy, Yang Qi's right hand lightly pressed against the jade of the altar.

Airplanes!

The jade bi radiated light, revealing a pattern that was exactly the same as the third layer of holy patterns, and then Yang Qi's right hand began to move, outlining the third layer of holy patterns one by one.

A moment later, the Holy Pattern was outlined, the light of the altar flashed, and Yang Qi came to the fifth layer.

"Teacher, is it possible that someone walked ahead of us and stepped on the upper level of the Divine Fire Tower first?"

After reaching the fifth layer, the holy pattern of the fifth layer rose to the sky, but Yang Qi did not activate the altar immediately, but looked at the looming holy pattern in the jade of the altar with some solemnity.

Shi Changtian frowned: "Do you suspect that someone reached the top before you?"

Yang Qi nodded solemnly: "This is the fifth layer, I have already passed through five space-time altars, except for the first altar that does not need the key of the Holy Pattern to activate, the remaining four altars have carved out the Holy Pattern Pattern, you see." ”

Yang Qi pointed to the altar jade at this time, the looming holy pattern was the fourth layer of the holy pattern.

"This holy pattern seems to have been carved for a short time, and it doesn't look like it was left by the Divine Fire Ancestor before he died. ”

Shi Changtian stared at the looming holy pattern and nodded slightly: "The Divine Fire Ancestor has been dead for 10,000 years, this is indeed not like the pattern left over 10,000 years ago. ”

Then his eyes narrowed: "It seems that your worries are not unreasonable, if someone can also trace these holy patterns, then he can also directly ascend to the top." If this is the case, the Suzaku essence blood will be in danger. ”

Yang Qi pondered for a moment and asked in a deep voice, "Teacher, if you want to memorize these holy patterns by your own strength, what kind of strength do you need?"

Shi Changtian glanced at Yang Qi and replied truthfully: "Nine out of nine in the Earth Evil Realm can't, and the Tiangang Realm should be able to record it." ”

Yang Qi's face sank, and there was such a low possibility that the Earth Hell Realm would write down this holy pattern, wouldn't that mean that the person in front of him was at least also the Earth Hell Realm, and even had a ninety percent chance of being a powerhouse in the Tiangang Realm.

Shi Changtian also knew the entanglement in Yang Qi's heart at this time, if the person in front of him was really so strong, how could Yang Qi take advantage of him, and even if that person saw Yang Qi, I am afraid that he would directly kill people.

Yang Qi's face changed, Shi Changtian did not urge him, but waited quietly, waiting for Yang Qi to make his own decision. Every monk has his own path of growth, and this path of growth throughout the life of a monk is made up of countless choices.

Yang Qi's path must be taken by himself, although Shi Changtian is Yang Qi's master, he understands very well that he is only an auxiliary role, he is only responsible for promoting Yang Qi's cultivation, and providing some help in Yang Qi's growth. No matter what decision Yang Qi makes, he will spare no effort to support Yang Qi.

After a moment, Yang Qi slowly raised his head.

Shi Changtian asked softly, "How is it?"

Yang Qi sighed: "If I don't go up and take a look, I will be unwilling." ”

Shi Changtian seemed to have expected Yang Qi's choice, and said with a smile: "The monk cultivates his mind smoothly, since not going to the top level will make you uncomfortable, then go and take a look." ”

Yang Qi exhaled: "If there is danger, it's a big deal that I don't fight for this Vermilion Bird essence blood, just leave the Divine Fire Tower." ”

After making a decision, Yang Qi felt relaxed in his heart.

He traced the flame pattern in the sky, and then drew the fourth layer of the holy pattern on top of the jade.

Airplanes!

The altar was activated, and Yang Qi came to the sixth layer.

As concocted, Yang Qi came to the seventh layer.

The seventh layer was still desolate, Yang Qi ascended the altar, and the seventh flame holy pattern rose to the sky.

Yang Qi traced the seventh holy pattern, and his face was a little dignified and carved the sixth layer of the holy pattern on the jade.

Airplanes!

Yang Qi's figure disappeared on the seventh layer and came to the eighth layer.

As soon as he landed, Yang Qi looked around vigilantly, but found that there was no single figure, and the surroundings were still desolate.

Yang Qi's face was a little regretful: "It seems that that person has already reached the top floor, and it is estimated that the Vermilion Bird essence blood has fallen into his hands." ”

Shi Changtian comforted: "Maybe no one is in front of you at all." ”

Yang Qi smiled: "Whether there is anyone or not, let's go up and talk about it." ”

Yang Qi stood on top of the altar on the eighth floor, but he was a little surprised to find that the altar on the eighth floor did not burst out with new holy patterns, and it was extremely calm.

Shi Changtian's heart moved: "There are only seven kinds of fires in the Seven Nights, from the first layer to the seventh layer, there are already seven holy patterns condensed by these seven flames, it is estimated that the Divine Fire Ancestor did not leave a holy pattern in this eighth layer." However, the Holy Pattern you traced on the seventh layer should be the key to the altar of the eighth layer. ”

Yang Qi nodded slightly, and began to sketch the flame holy pattern of the seventh layer on the altar jade.

The next moment, Yang Qi's figure suddenly disappeared.

Da!

Yang Qi's feet landed gently, and in the silence of the ninth layer of space, a soft sound sounded.

In the desolate world, Yang Qi's figure suddenly appeared, and he looked around like every layer in front of him. originally thought that it was still a desolate world, but suddenly a white figure came into his eyes.

Yang Qi's heart was shocked, his whole body was tense, the Yuan Force of his whole body was running wildly at this time, the power of the Great Dao was surging, the thunder of heavenly punishment was wrapped around his hand, his heart was pounding, in this ninth layer, there was really someone!

Bang bang bang!

Yang Qi's heartbeat was forcibly suppressed by him, and his eyes were extremely solemn as he looked at the white figure less than ten meters in front of him.

This figure, slender and straight, with his hands behind his back at this time, in his incomparably calm body, it seemed to slowly exude an aura that made Yang Qi a little ashamed. This kind of aura is not powerful, and it is even constricted by him and his body, but the innate dignity that emanates from his bones can be seen from his every move, even if he stands quietly like this, as if he should be the protagonist between heaven and earth.

Yang Qi had almost never felt such an aura, and this aura was completely different from everyone he had ever seen, just like people from two worlds.

Looking at this figure, a figure suddenly appeared in Yang Qi's mind.

Duguyue.

Only Duguyue has a trace of such an aura on her body, that kind of unusual aura. Yang Qi froze, and just as he was about to speak, the figure slowly turned around.

An extremely ordinary face came into Yang Qi's eyes.

The facial features are ordinary, the appearance is ordinary, and this one is more than ordinary, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at Yang Qi with interest. What surprised Yang Qi a little was that this person looked extremely young, as if he was less than thirty years old, and he didn't know if it was some senior powerhouse who had a good appearance.

"I didn't expect anyone to be able to come here. ”

His voice is also very ordinary, and his whole body is extremely ordinary.

Except for his eyes, which are so deep that they are frightening.

At this time, Shi Changtian's face was shocked, and he also sensed an unusual aura from this person.
