Chapter 458: Qi veins are gradually exhausted
Xu Yu nodded: "That's right! Therefore, this fire dragon qi can be said to have been mastered by demons for a long time. As for Shi Yu, the fire dragon qi you have in your body should come from the companion spirit bead of Candle Jiuyin - the fire dragon ball, the fire dragon ball flowed into the human world thousands of years ago, and then disappeared, maybe it is destined to happen, this fire dragon qi is yours after all, and it can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune. ”
"But in that case, why didn't the demon invite Candle Jiuyin to melt this piece of Xuan Ice?" I said with some confusion.
Xu Yu shook his head: "The old man doesn't know why for this, but these three marks are only afraid that they have nothing to do with the old thief of Candle Jiuyin." ”
I was slightly stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What did you say about seniors?" ”
"The ice is extremely hard, you have tried it just now, and even the dragon's teeth can't leave marks on it. However, Candle Jiuyin's claws contained the dragon qi of fire, and only its claws could make such deep marks on such a hard piece of ice. ”
I couldn't help but be shocked: "You mean, this claw mark was left by Candle Jiuyin!?" ”
"I can't say for sure yet, and I haven't figured it out, if it's really Candle Nine Yin, why don't you just use the Fire Dragon Qi to dissolve this Xuan Ice, but just leave a paw print on it?"
As we were talking, there was a slight noise behind us, and I and I turned our heads almost at the same time, but we didn't see anything.
I held the dragon's teeth in my hand and asked in a low voice, "What is it?" ”
"This thing is extremely fast, and the old man can't see what it is." Xu Yu looked around for a moment, and said with a frown.
I glanced at the stone pillars around the stone platform, and the green dragons hovering above them were still motionless, and I couldn't help but feel a little strange, and said, "Aren't these water-based divine dragons responsible for guarding this Xuanshui Nine Dragon Array?" How can something come close and they don't respond? ”
"Presumably they sensed that this thing was not malicious, so they didn't react."
As soon as Xu Yan's words fell, a voice came into our ears: "Who are you who dare to break into this place? ”
The voice came from the side, and I hurried to follow the voice, but there was still no one to be seen.
Because I didn't know whether it was friend or foe, I didn't dare to be careless, so I hurriedly clenched the dragon's teeth, held them horizontally in front of my chest, and secretly urged the fire dragon qi in my body. ”
I was puzzled and asked, "Why not?" ”
"Because the fire dragon qi can dissolve this piece of Xuan Ice, if you urge the fire dragon qi, I am afraid that it will be in the hands of the evil demon!"
Hearing Xu Yu say this, I realized that there was indeed something wrong with using the Fire Dragon Qi here, so I hurriedly suppressed the Fire Dragon Qi in my body.
Xu Yu walked slowly to a stone pillar next to the stone platform, and said to the stone pillar, "Show up! ”
I was slightly stunned, and hurriedly turned my head to look at the stone pillar, and after a while, I saw the green dragon hovering on the stone pillar turned into a wisp of white mist, and disappeared out of thin air in front of us, and after a while, a figure appeared in front of us.
Needless to say, this person must have been transformed by the green dragon hovering over the stone pillar, and I couldn't help but feel a little surprised, because dragons that can transform into human forms often have reached an extremely high level of cultivation. Even compared to the moment, it is even better.
However, Xu Yu was not afraid of that person, but took a step forward, clasped his fists from the other party and said: "Old man Xu Yan, also a dragon clan, we came here when we heard the movement, dare to ask if this place is the place where the fire demon is sealed?" ”
The other party did not answer, but said coldly: "This is the supreme forbidden place, and those who have nothing to do with it leave quickly!" Otherwise, don't blame us for being unkind! ”
I didn't expect this guy to open his mouth and give us an eviction order, which annoyed me a little, so I stepped forward and yelled at him, "Who said we are unrelated people!" We ......" I wanted to argue with him, but the man standing next to me interrupted me, and he didn't seem to be annoyed by the other party's indifferent tone, but continued to ask the other party as if nothing had happened: "The old man wants to ask you, what is the scratch on this ice?" But what did the old thief do with Candle Jiuyin? ”
The other party was a little surprised when he heard Xu Yu mention Candle Jiuyin and call him an old thief: "Do you recognize Lihuo Longzun?" ”
Xu Yu snorted softly: "Hmph! What is the Fire Dragon Venerable, he has already become an accomplice of the evil demon now! ”
"As a dragon clan, how can you be so disrespectful to the Fire Dragon Venerable!" The other party asked sharply.
"Looks like you don't know what's going on yet." Xu Yu said and told the other party that he deliberately added fuel and vinegar to describe Candle Jiuyin as a heinous demon. After listening to this, the other party pondered for a moment and said thoughtfully: "Could it be that the strange demonic beast not long ago was transformed by the Fire Dragon Venerable?" ”
After hearing this, he hurriedly asked, "What weird monster?"
"It's to leave paw prints on the Xuan Bing......" As soon as the other party was halfway through his words, he seemed to suddenly realize that he shouldn't say so much to the two of us, and then changed his words and said coldly: "Why are you asking so much!" Although you are a dragon, but this place is a forbidden place, whether it is a mortal or a god in the divine realm, you can not stay here, I think that you two have entered this place by mistake, there is no malice, let alone pursue, but if you don't leave, don't blame our subordinates for being ruthless. ”
Xu Yu was a little helpless, so he had to turn his head and say to me, "Shi Yu, let's go." ”
"But we haven't figured it out yet, how can we just leave like this, in case that weird monster comes back......"
Before I could finish speaking, the man interrupted me and said, "You don't need to worry about this, we can handle it." ”
Listening to his tone, it seemed that he had already fought with the monster that left the paw prints, and it must have been the monster that was defeated and fled, so he said that.
I didn't want to say anything more, and I was about to leave, but as soon as we walked down the stone steps, the man suddenly asked, "This place is thousands of feet deep underground, who actually dug a hole to this place?" ”
He turned his head and replied, "It was a demon from hell who did it!" They had known for a long time that the Fire Demon was sealed here. Thousands of years ago, secret works began to excavate the tunnels leading to this place. ”
"The fire demon is sealed here, but how does the hell demon know?"
"Humph! Needless to say! It must be candle nine yin! He must have leaked the news to the demons! He's already in cahoots with the demons, so you'd better be wary of him, his fire dragon energy can dissolve this ice. ”
After finishing speaking, he suddenly flew up and turned into a cyan dragon.
He asked me to sit on his back and carried me to leave, when an extremely powerful roar came from the huge black ice behind us. I was so shaken by this deafening roar that I almost fell off the back of the green dragon. Xu Yu was obviously also taken aback, its body shook violently, and it immediately turned its head and looked at the black ice.
The black ice didn't change in the slightest, but the green dragons hovering on the stone pillars around the stone platform all moved, and the person who had just spoken to us immediately turned around and looked at the incomparably huge piece of ice behind him. Xu Yu opened his mouth and asked, "Why is this, since the Fire Demon is sealed in the Dark Ice, how can he still roar?" ”
The man turned his back to us and said without looking back, "The Fire Demon must have awakened." ”
"It's awake!? Will it break the ice? I asked.
The man did not answer me, but suddenly turned his head and said to the two of us, "Since you two have come here, I have just one thing to ask for!" ”
Xu Yu immediately said: "It is the old man's duty to suppress the evil spirits, just open your mouth!" ”
The man sighed and said slowly: "The Flame Demon is a supreme demonic beast, the reason why this divine array can suppress it, in addition to this piece of Xuan Ice that the White Water Dragon Venerable turned into with its own essence, also with the help of the aura of heaven and earth, when the gods created a double lake of yin and yang here, so that the leyline aura within a radius of thousands of miles has been continuously gathered here, but for some reason, for thousands of years, the leyline aura that originally flowed into the place has been gradually exhausted, making this divine array gradually lose its effectiveness, And this is the real reason why the fire demon was able to wake up. If it takes time, it will melt through the ice and break out, I'm afraid it will be sooner or later. ”
"And this kind of thing!?" Listening to the man's story, Xu Yu and I were both taken aback.
He nodded, and continued: "Because we have to guard this place and can't leave, and we can't find out what happened, I want to ask the two of you to help find out the reason, since you say that the evil demons knew that the fire demons were sealed here more than a thousand years ago, I am afraid that they are only afraid that they will not only secretly dig the passage to this place, but also use some hands and feet to cut off the leyline aura in this place." ”
Hearing him say this, and then thinking of the actual situation in Lop Nur today, I suddenly realized and shouted: "I understand! ”
"What do you understand?" The man asked.
I didn't answer him immediately, but asked him rhetorically: "You just said that because the gods created the Yin and Yang Twin Lakes here, the earth veins and spiritual energy within a radius of thousands of miles are continuously gathered here, so what if one of the Yin and Yang Twin Lakes dries up?" ”
"If one of the lakes really dries up, it will completely change the yin and yang aura here, and the consequences will be unimaginable."
Xu Yu heard the meaning of my words, and hurriedly asked me, "Shi Yu, what do you mean by this?" What happened to Mo Fei Nayang Lake? ”
I took a deep breath and replied slowly, "Not in general! Nayang Lake is no longer there, and the lake area is now a barren dry land. ”
