Chapter 299: Mountaintop Confluence
"Look, this is Begonia Iris, I'm afraid we're on the top of the mountain now." Mo Bai pointed to the herb at Lan Yao's feet and spoke.
"Mengxiao must be around here." Lan Yao raised her eyes and looked around, it was still white, if it weren't for the land under her feet to remind her, I was afraid that she would really think that they were still halfway up the mountain.
"Well, look for it." With a white chin, he and Lan Yao walked towards the surroundings firmly.
"Wait." Lan Yao spoke up and said to Mo Bai.
"What's wrong?" Mo Bai turned his eyes back and looked at Lan Yao's cold eyes, which were obviously so cold, but they made people feel extremely relieved, and in the cold depths, there was still a trace of softness.
That softness is only available when facing them.
"I'll leave a mark here." After Lan Yao finished speaking, a ray of light flew out from his fingertips and landed on the herb.
"That's smart." Mo Bai praised loudly, Lan Yao did a very good job of this method, although the road ahead could not be seen clearly, but the herbs under his feet would not change, so he went in one direction, if he returned to the place just now, then they would go in another direction.
The top of this mountain is only so big, they will soon be able to walk the entire mountain, and maybe they will meet Mengxiao halfway through.
"Bang-" Lan Yao and Mo Bai were moving forward according to the plan, when suddenly there was a loud noise in front of them.
Emperor!
The two looked at each other and quickly noticed the message in each other's eyes.
At this moment, it was originally black smoke, and the two of them had tried it just now, whether it was divine power or immortal power, they would all be swallowed by this black gas.
It is simply impossible to make the slightest sound.
And at this moment, there can be such a big movement on the mountain, and the sound can be transmitted, except for the emperor who uses the power of the underworld, they can't think of a second person.
The two of them hurriedly quickened their pace and rushed towards the source of the voice.
With the sound as a guide, they soon came to the place where the loud noise came from.
At this moment, in front of them was the emperor who was full of youthful feeling, his pure eyes were full of seriousness that he had never felt before, and his palms burst out with black light, forcing the smoke around him back.
And next to Di Xian stood the Meng Xiao in a pink robe, Meng Xiao had a moment, and he fanned the feather fan for a while, and the whole person looked at Di Xi with his unique gentleness.
"No, I tried." Emperor Yan withdrew the spiritual power in his hand, looked back at Meng Xiao, and shook his head.
"It seems that we have to go to the source, and then wait for my mother to kiss them." Meng Xiao said softly, his tone was unhurried, not at all like a person trapped here.
"Mengxiao, Emperor." Lan Yao opened his mouth and called, speeding away with Mo Bai, and soon walked in front of the two of them.
As Emperor Yan's mana disappeared, the black gas surged towards the four of them like a tide, and the scenery around them was quickly swallowed up by thick smoke.
Lan Yao quickly grabbed Mengxiao's hand, and called in a slightly anxious voice: "Emperor hurry up and catch it, otherwise he will be scattered in a while." ”
"Okay." Emperor Yan responded, as if he was playing, he detoured behind Lan Yao, and directly hugged her into his arms.
At this time, the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing, Lan Yao held Mo Bai with her left hand and Meng Xiao with her right hand, but she was held in Di Yan's arms.
"You'd better hold on to my robe." The corners of Lan Yao's mouth twitched, and he spoke.
"Okay." Emperor Yan also knew that he shouldn't come at this time, so he had to withdraw his hand, grabbed Lan Yao's arm, and looked at Lan Yao with some dissatisfaction.
"Why are you here?" Meng Xiao was a little surprised by Lan Yao's arrival, but soon the doubts in his eyes faded.
He should have known about the dying, and of course she couldn't sit still and wait there for their news.
"Naturally, I don't worry about you, what were you doing just now?" Lan Yao asked, first of all, what she saw.
"I originally wanted Emperor Shi to try to see if he could split a path to the bottom of the mountain, but he found that at most he could force back a black gas with a radius of five meters." Meng Xiao explained, his eyes staring at the smoke around him, and suddenly asked, "What time did you come?" ”
"It's late at night." Lan Yao said slowly.
"Looks like we've been trapped in this fog for some time." Mengxiao couldn't have imagined that a dense fog could trap them.
"Emperor, can you sense the source of this smoke?" Lan Yao asked.
At the moment, the most important thing is to find the source of the smoke, so that they can really disperse the smoke from the back mountain.
"It should work." Emperor Yan thought for a moment, and the pink lip flap opened slightly.
"Okay." Meng Xiao patted Di Yan's hand and pulled him over from Lan Yao's side, "You can't calm down by her side, I'll hold you." ”
“······” Although Emperor Xi was reluctant, Mengxiao was right, by Lan Yao's side, he couldn't enter a meditative state, and naturally he couldn't feel the source of the black smoke most accurately.
He let Mengxiao lead him, slowly closed his eyes, and entered a hopeless realm.
"Mengxiao, when you first discovered this anomaly, did you see black gas?" Lan Yao saw that Emperor Xi had already begun to induce intent, and she knew that it was not appropriate to disturb, so she opened her mouth to ask Mengxiao about some details.
"No, I just noticed that the animals on the mountain began to flee when I was passing by, and the animals' perception has always been very sensitive, so I feel a little strange." Mengxiao waved it lightly with a feather fan.
"Then how did you meet Emperor Shi?" Mo Bai, who had been silent, suddenly asked, after all, although Mengxiao and Emperor Xi left not far apart, if they entered this back mountain, all the breath would be hidden, and even if Emperor Xi arrived on his heels, he would not find Mengxiao so quickly.
And with the speed of the two people's pace and the time they delay along the road are different, meeting has become a very luxurious thing.
"In front of a stick of incense." Meng Xiao opened his mouth to recall, at that time, Emperor Yan suddenly rushed over, with the spiritual power in his hand, waving the smoke around him, and they met.
"Then have you seen my mother and my third aunt and third uncle?" Although this question is ridiculous, Lan Yao still asks it.
In fact, if Mengxiao saw it, she would naturally take her mother and relatives with her, instead of the two of them walking together.
"Don't worry, the emperor has already probed just now, and this smoke can isolate it, and it has not given birth to other changes, so it will not cause harm to the mother and them. As long as we find the source before it changes, then everything will be solved. ”
Meng Xiao's gentle voice soothed, and there were bursts of peach blossom aroma from his body, which slowed down Lan Yao's nerves a little.
"Quick, that thing is in the southeast." The emperor who was contemplative, suddenly opened his eyes, and said a position with a determined face.
"Southeast?" Lan Yao raised her eyebrows, she looked at the black smoke, and was deeply surprised by Emperor Yan's words.
I can't see anything clearly at the moment, how can I tell the direction?
"I'll lead the way." After the emperor blurted out, he also felt that it was inappropriate, so he hurriedly walked around to the front of everyone and showed them the way.
"Okay." Instead, he used to grab the emperor's robe, so that it was convenient for the emperor to move.
Lan Yao's tense nerves were finally relieved, as long as the source was found.
"Hurry up." Emperor Yan, who had been walking well, suddenly spoke, his tone was so anxious, it seemed that something big was about to happen.
"What's wrong?" Meng Xiao's gentle voice sounded, and he quickly asked when he noticed that Emperor Xian's mood was wrong.
"That thing is going to mutate." Emperor Yan was as pure as a child, and there was a trace of imperceptible nervousness in his eyes.
As soon as Emperor Yan finished speaking, Lan Yao lifted her footsteps like a gust of wind, and she urged: "Hurry up, hurry up." ”
Mengxiao, Mo Bai and Di Yan had a tacit understanding and accelerated their speed.
"How do you sense that thing has mutated?" Mo Bai asked.
"That thing doesn't emit black gas anymore." Emperor Xi just said the conjecture in his heart, the source no longer emitted black gas does not mean that it has stopped, but what changes have occurred inside the time.
Several people's faces were stained with a layer of frost at the same time.
If this source suddenly mutates, then what should they do with the mother in the smoke······
Lan Yao's eyes were full of worry.
"Young, you don't have to be too afraid, aunt, she was originally an immortal, and she has been the patriarch of the Phoenix clan for so long, and she will come to the mountains to pick herbs all year round, but I am afraid that she is very familiar with the terrain here, and she is accompanied by your third uncle and three aunts, and it will be fine."
Although Mo Bai didn't know whether Lan Yao's third uncle and third aunt were strong or not, with Fairy Jin Yue alone, there was naturally no problem with self-preservation.
"Yes, don't worry too much about it." Meng Xiao also reassured herself, Lan Yao's emotional bullying at this moment was very obvious, and the three beautiful men were always paying attention to her changes.
"Good ······" Lan Yao had to say this, just because she was afraid that the change in her mood would make them too worried.
"Soon, we're getting closer, about three hundred meters." There was a touch of joy in the emperor's eyes.
It's good that as long as it hasn't mutated yet, they can uproot it.
When Lan Yao heard Emperor Yan's words, the uneasiness in his heart stabilized slightly, three hundred meters was just an instantaneous thing for them.
"Wait, we can't get close with mana, we can only walk." Emperor Yan found that at a distance of three hundred meters, they had been spinning in place with their mana, and they had obviously advanced, but they were soon carried away by the thick smoke.
I'm afraid that's the thing's self-defense system.
As soon as the emperor's words came out, several people had a tacit understanding to stop using mana and change to walking.
"Emperor, see if you can split a road." Meng Xiao reminded loudly.
Emperor Yan quickly began to accumulate the power of the underworld, and in his palm, the black light wave was converging, and he shot the light in the direction of the source.
The smoke that had been blocking their eyes was split in half, like two sides of the way.
The way forward is clear little by little.
Finally, they saw the source.
It's just a small, lonely herb.
The appearance of that herb is very ordinary, but it has a very good smell.
It stood silently, as if it were in a deep sleep.
Several people hurriedly quickened their steps and ran towards the herb.
Closer, closer.
Finally, Emperor Yan stretched out his hand and was about to touch the herb.
At this moment, the herb suddenly emitted a strange black light.
The light had a very powerful impact, shaking the four of them out.
And the impact was spreading infinitely, and Meng Xiao hurriedly waved it lightly with a feather fan, setting up a layer of enchantment around the four of them to prevent the second impact of the black light.
Sure enough, as Meng Xiao expected, not long after the first wave of impact, the second wave followed, and it was even more powerful, and it actually shook away all the black gas that gathered around.
Countless herbs, countless trees were broken.
And the black light soared into the sky, covering the starry sky above the Phoenix Clan.
Darker nights are coming.
