Chapter 864: Where
"Ah Nian, how are you?" At this time, Feng Yan hurriedly ran to the man's side and asked with concern.
Cang Wunian shook his head and stood up, handed the tree root in his hand to Feng Yan's eyes, and said helplessly: "The ferocious fire just now seems to have only burned off a layer of skin on the surface of the root, and this is ...... It's still the same as it was. ”
The root of the tree is still the same root, but it has become slightly whiter than it looked before, and the thickness has hardly changed, just the appearance of burning off a layer of skin.
"This ...... The raging fire just now can't burn this tree root completely?" said Feng Annihilation.
Cang Wunian shook his head slightly, "In my opinion, maybe the power left of that flame is not enough, and the burning time is not long enough, in the final analysis, it is equivalent to a useless work." ”
"Well, it's useless for you, but it's ...... for us This loss is too great!" Yan Gong's voice came into the ears of the two of them with a little crying at this time.
The two of them were stunned when they heard this, and then they both showed a look of guilt, if it weren't for their arrival, the charcoal fire on the ember wood didn't seem to be extinguished so quickly, even if it was dying, it wouldn't have all dissipated all at once.
"Senior Yan Gong, I'm really sorry, we'...... I didn't expect that to happen. Feng Yan hurriedly opened his mouth to express his apologies to Yan Gong.
Yan Gong shook his head and sighed in pain: "Hey, this is all fate, it's all fate! If you really want to complain, you can only complain that I shouldn't have brought you tonight, it's that I'm sorry for those descendants of the clan!"
Seeing the old man's painful and self-blaming appearance, Cang Wunian's heart was also very uncomfortable, and he hurriedly spoke: "Don't blame yourself, seniors, this incident is because of us." Now our goal has not been achieved, it is better to do this, if the seniors know where the real Zhurong fire is, please let us know, we will do our best to bring back another fire for the seniors. ”
Hearing Cang Wunian say this, Yan Gong immediately subconsciously asked, "Is this true?"
"It's true. Cang Wunian said with a firm face.
Yan Gong glanced at Cang Wunian deeply, his eyes flickered slightly, and soon he was relieved again, and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to tell you where the Zhurong Fire is, it's just that I'm afraid that if I say it, I will harm you!"
Cang Wunian smiled indifferently, "Seniors don't need to worry about us, even if seniors don't say it, we will still look for it until we find Zhurong's fire." Since you and we have common needs, we are willing to do it for you. I only hope that our predecessors can show us a clear way, so that we don't have to worry about it. ”
Seeing Cang Wunian's light appearance, Yan Gong couldn't help but want to sigh "Those who don't know are fearless", but the other party's attitude was resolute, and finding a new source of fire was an urgent matter for the Fire Light Beast......
So Yan Gong gritted his teeth, "Since that's the case, then I'll tell you the truth......"
It turned out that according to the legend handed down by Yan Gong's ancestors, the ancestor of the Fire Light Beast was a spark of Zhurong Fire found from a mountain called "Zhangwei Mountain" in the north.
Zhangwei Mountain is covered with snow all year round, and the wind and frost are constant, and it is a very cold place, and the environment there is very deadly for the fire beasts that rely on fire sources to survive. Ordinary fire beasts don't even dare to touch water, let alone ice and snow.
In the past hundred years, there have been some powerful descendants in the Fire Light Beast Clan who have gone out to find a new source of fire, and even Yan Gong, who is the oldest and the oldest, has tried to go to Zhangwei Mountain to find the real Zhurong Fire.
However, returning in vain was the best result, and there were many Flame Beasts who never returned.
"I didn't deserve to die back then, but I was able to come back alive with a sigh of relief. The cold hundreds of thousands of miles away from that Zhangwei Mountain almost killed me, let alone actually set foot on that snow-capped mountain. At the end of the words, Yan Gong said with palpitations.
Cang Wunian's sword eyebrows frowned slightly, he always felt that Yan Gong's account was incomplete, and why was Zhu Rong's fire in the north? This was very different from the result of the calculation before the wind annihilation.
Even if he didn't have the Luo Shu fragment in his hand, Feng Yan's divination should not be wrong, and it was so extreme. Could it be ...... Is there really something between this world that they can't compete with that is holding them back?
"There can be gods, beasts, or ...... in that Zhangwei Mountain. Beast?" After a long silence, Feng Yan suddenly asked.
Yan Gong's face changed, there was fear and worry in his expression, he took a deep breath and calmed down before replying: "This is the last point I want to remind you, when the ancestors of our clan brought back that spark, they didn't mention it, but this does not prevent us juniors from hearing some legends.
"It is said that in the depths of Zhangwei Mountain, there is indeed a very powerful mountain god, saying that it is a mountain god, but whether he is a god or a fierce beast, whether it is good or evil, we have no way of knowing. ”
"Does no one know where he came from?" asked Cang Wunian in a deep voice.
Yan Gong shook his head, "It is said that everyone who has seen him is dead. ”
Cang Wunian's brows were deeply tangled together, and then he looked at Feng Yan, "Could it be that this so-called mountain god is influencing the direction of your divination and Zhurong's fire?"
As a result, before Feng Yan could answer, Yan Gong asked with a surprised face, "What are you talking about?"
A wry smile appeared on Feng Yan's face, and he said shamefully: "I thought that apart from the Mandate of Heaven, there was no power in heaven and earth that could hinder my divination, but everything in this place was beyond my cognition, and it made me feel a deep sense of powerlessness. ”
Yan Gong carefully looked at the wind oblivion from head to toe, and then asked, "Where is the location of the Zhurong Fire that you calculated?"
"South. Wind Oblivion replied.
Yan Gong smiled knowingly, "Nanfang, that's right." ”
"Hmm, what do you mean by that?" said Feng Yan, puzzled.
Yan Gong turned to look at the dark night sky in the distance, and said leisurely: "When the world is not opened, everything is chaos, and after the chaos is opened, there are heaven, earth, stars, mountains and rivers in this world. I don't know if you've ever heard that after the opening of this world, there was still a small piece of chaotic land, and that place was called the 'Hongmeng Relic'. ”
Hearing the words "Hongmeng Relic Realm", Cang Wunian and Feng Annihilation were suddenly startled, how could they not know this place? They went back and forth in the Hongmeng Relic Realm many times.
However, Yan Gong, who was facing away from them, did not notice the surprised look on their faces, but continued to take care of himself: "Actually, that Chaotic Land is the passage connecting the north and the south, you can think that the Hongmeng Relic Realm is the southernmost part of this heaven and earth, or you can think that it is in the northernmost part of heaven and earth. In short, as long as you pass through the Hongmeng Relic Realm, you can immediately go from south to north, or from north to south. Of course, the premise is that the strength is sufficient. ”
"We understand what our predecessors mean. Cang Wunian took over and then asked, "So the position we are in now is closer to the southernmost point?"
Yan Gong turned around and nodded at the man, "That's right, if you really want to find the Zhurong Fire, continuing south from here is the most time-saving and labor-saving way, but it's just ......"
"Just what?" asked Wind Oblivion.
Yan Gong frowned, and said with some concern: "I can feel a very strong and even mysterious power from you, but with all due respect, your current strength is not at your peak...... Everything points to disaster. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled when they heard this, Cang Wunian naturally grabbed the woman's waist very naturally, and said lightly: "Even if it is the eighteenth layer of hell, we will go hand in hand, if we are destined to be unable to cross this hurdle, it is also due to creation, and we can't blame anyone." ”
This scene made Yan Gong slightly distracted, although the pair of men and women kept calling him seniors as soon as they met, but he knew that he couldn't take their "seniors" at all.
Although their faces look young, their eyes inadvertently reveal the vicissitudes that only time can precipitate.
Yan Gong didn't want to ask who they were and where they came from. But he knew that this immortal couple-like man and woman must be the highest symbol of strength and status in the world where they were. If not, why would they laugh and talk about joining hands to break through the eighteen layers of hell?
Only the pinnacle powerhouse who shoulders the world can show such a detached posture in the face of the test of danger. It's not that they've put life and death on the line, it's not because they're confident that they're capable of getting through all the difficulties, it's because in their hearts there is something more important than their own lives to protect.
Thinking of this, Yan Gong was relieved, he looked at Feng Yan and Cang Wunian deeply, and said very solemnly: "The road ahead is difficult, I hope you two will cherish it." I can't help you too much with this old bone, so I can only open the portal of the clan teleportation array to send the two of you a ride. ”
When the two of them heard this, their hearts suddenly relaxed a lot. Regardless of whether the teleportation array in this Flame Beast Clan was exquisite or not, at least it saved them a lot of consumption in terms of time and mana. If there were really any ancient beasts on Zhangwei Mountain that were extremely difficult to deal with, then from now on, their strength would naturally be able to save a little more certainty.
The top of this cliff is the sacred place of the Fire Beast Clan, and the teleportation array gate mentioned by Yan Gong is in a cave below where the Ember Wood is.
It wasn't until the moment when they needed to open the portal gate that Cang Wunian and Feng Yan saw the Fire Light Beast except for Yan Gong. It's just that these fire beasts may be due to their young age and lack of cultivation, they are all like long ears, they can only speak human words, but they can't turn into human form like Yan Gong.
