Chapter 245: There is no way out
The red light was faster than the black gas, with a blazing breath, and the heat wave was coming in an instant, and Li Ding only felt that his consciousness was floating for a while, as if it was about to be evaporated, which made him fearful.
But the next moment, Li Ding had a down-to-earth feeling, knowing that his consciousness was in place, he couldn't help but use his hands and feet to climb up the ladder until he used up his last strength.
At this time, Li Ding was covered in cold sweat, his body was like mud, and the pain in the depths of his consciousness was even more unbearable.
With a strong sense of fatigue, he finally couldn't hold on and fell into a deep sleep.
I don't know how long it took, but when he woke up, Li Ding's eyes suddenly opened, with a hint of fear.
In his memory, the red light clearly gave him a feeling of near death.
It stands to reason that the heat of the red light is less than one-tenth of that of the thunder fire, so there is nothing to be afraid of, but unexpectedly, the red light seems to have extremely strong lethality to the soul consciousness.
Black gas, red light, nothing on the surface, but it turns out to be extremely dangerous.
These are all terrifying forces that Li Ding has never seen before, and under this unknown terrible threat, he can only avoid it, and there is no other way.
Fortunately, after resting, the pain in Li Ding's consciousness was slowly disappearing, but he found that the wood attribute vitality in the dantian had been completely consumed.
In the battle with the demon blood leech, the damage in the depths of his consciousness was something Li Ding didn't expect, and the most strange thing was that once the soul power was used from then on, the wood attribute vitality was consumed very quickly, but he couldn't find the reason. And without the support of vitality, his soul power will be greatly reduced.
All along, Li Ding's cultivation has been groping for his own progress, and this kind of thing has happened. He couldn't help but wonder if something had gone wrong in terms of soul cultivation.
But at this time, Li Ding was not allowed to think too much, he felt that he had just used his soul power to draw the picture. If the mind is too focused, it will obviously consume more energy. It's really a bit of a flurry.
Xiao Dan's medicinal power can infinitely repair the injuries on his body, and even bring him back to life, but he can't do anything about the injuries in his consciousness, if he hadn't finished drawing the figure in time, his consciousness was hit by red light, and his soul was injured, he might have stayed here forever.
Faced with this situation, no matter how strong Li Ding was, he finally gave birth to a trace of cowardice.
But Li Ding will not be truly timid. He just felt that if he was bold, he had to be careful, because there might be some crisis in this place.
Li Ding's eyes gradually returned to firmness, but when he looked at the black water again, he was immediately stunned again.
In that seemingly calm inky sea, about fifty zhang away from him, a huge black stone pillar stood there strangely, almost blending with the black water surface, but the flower statue at the top of the stone pillar told Li Ding. This is exactly the one he traced with his soul power.
Surprised, puzzled, Li Ding seemed to have found something, but he couldn't be sure.
Await. Thinking, after recuperating for a long time, Li Ding recovered his vitality. The physical strength is also recovered, and then it is quietly to continue to wait. Until the surface of the water moves again. A red light flickered.
The red light flickered away, as the surface of the water turned from transparent to pitch black. Looking at the black vortices that seemed to be solidified, Li Ding immediately threw down the stones that had been prepared in his hands.
A strange scene took place, the stone fell to the surface of the water without any change, and there was a crisp sound, as if it had been thrown on ordinary rocky ground.
But it was only ten breaths of time, and as the vortex suddenly began to turn, the black water swallowed the stone at once, and Li Ding threw another stone, this time the stone turned into a wisp of black smoke before it could reach the surface of the water.
Li Ding sat on the ground with his brows furrowed, looking at the huge black stone pillar and being slightly distracted, suddenly his eyes froze, his soul power was cast, and his consciousness penetrated under the water again.
I saw that the stone pillar that was originally standing on the ground was floating in the air at this time.
"It's ......"
This scene shocked Li Ding's heart, and his eyes extended along the canyon, and he immediately found that there was no more than the same stone pillar in front of him.
These stone pillars are impartial, just on the central axis of the city, not far from each other, and go forward to the end of the city, like a kind of marker.
"Stone pillars, graphics, is this a stepping stone to cross the black water?"
In an instant, Li Ding understood, but this method was really weird. On the other side of the canyon, there is probably a way out.
Although he couldn't estimate the exact time, Li Ding had already sensed that the time when the black water mutation red light appeared was almost an hour, and in this hour, he had to be prepared.
Retracting his mind, Li Ding immediately entered the state of cultivation, replenished the wood attribute vitality that had just been lost, and then waited again.
Suddenly, black smoke came out of the surface of the black water, and as one vortex after another, red light rose into the sky again. Li Ding was already ready to go, and at the moment when the vortex stopped and the red light disappeared, his figure jumped on the black qi without hesitation.
Sure enough, the surface of the water at this time is really like a layer of rocks, and there is nothing unusual when you step on the cold ground under your feet. Li Ding was not in the mood to feel it, his figure was like flying, and he rushed towards the stone pillar fifty zhang away.
Ten breaths of time passed in an instant, and when there were still two zhang left, Li Ding flew up with a brisk step, jumped to the top of the stone pillar, and at this moment the stopped vortex resumed rotating, and when the black water surged, he immediately felt a wave of yin qi rushing towards his face, making him stand on the stone pillar and dare not move.
"It's dangerous. Li Ding only felt that his back skin was numb, and it would be bad if he slowed down half a step. Although he was sure that he could do it, the short distance of fifty zhang gave him a feeling of crossing life and death.
After settling down, Li Ding found that he was leaning against the flower statue, the statue was almost the same height as him, and when he looked at it from a distance, he only felt that the image was three-dimensional and vivid, and when he looked closely, he found that the statue was really finely carved and meticulous. It's just that the color of the statue is not black, but dark red, like the color of blood when it is cold and coagulated.
However, the dark red statue is not dull, but as bright and moist as gold and jade, when people change their perspective, the petals from time to time cross a streamer, showing the beauty.
Li Ding couldn't see what the material of the statue was, but felt that the statue was very different from the flat shape on the stone bricks, but from the style of the petals and the overall shape of the flower, it was still the same kind of flower at a glance.
The original smooth black mirror under the statue has disappeared. It became an ordinary black rock.
Li Ding never thought that his soul power could be used to draw pictures, of course, this must have something to do with the smooth black mirror. It may not be possible to change places, but it still gives Li Ding a new understanding of soul power.
Seen the statue. Li Ding immediately sat down with his back to the statue, and without any further delay, his soul power wandered and his consciousness crossed under the surface of the water again.
Soon, his soul power approached another stone pillar.
The top of the stone pillar really has the same black mirror, and the figure of a snake is faintly depicted underneath, which Li Ding has also seen in the stone bricks.
Six flowers, six beasts, could it be that there are twelve such stone pillars, Li Ding guessed. As his gaze slowly fixed on the figure, the mysterious power that bound his soul power reappeared.
Although Li Ding had been mentally prepared, he was still slightly taken aback, but he immediately stabilized his mind and immediately used the edge of his soul power to continuously cross the lines that made up the figure.
The lines gradually became clearer, and the originally flat abstract snake pattern gradually became vivid, as if it would rush out from under the mirror at any time to bite someone.
This process seems to be fast, but in fact it is slow to death, and Li Ding also found that the soul power gathered in one place must be drawn through the entire line from beginning to end. Otherwise, the graphics will not change.
I don't know how much time it took, but when Li Ding traced the last stroke, the power that bound the soul power disappeared immediately as expected.
Li Ding breathed a sigh of relief, although he felt a little tired. But he didn't expect that the vitality was not consumed too much.
At this moment, the stone pillar shook slightly, and the light on the black mirror was staggered. Like a surge of water, the snake suddenly opened its mouth and waged its tail. Bared two long fangs, and rushed out at once.
Li Ding was taken aback. The soul power hurriedly retreated, only to find that although the snake was terrifying, it was only a dark red stone statue, but the statue was too vivid.
When the statue appears, the light on the black mirror fades away, and eventually it becomes dull and becomes an ordinary rock.
After completing this, Li Ding did not leave in a hurry, and after waiting quietly for a while, a faint wave of undetectable fluctuations seemed to come out of the ground.
Then, he found that there was black gas gushing out everywhere in the city below, and the black gas was even more red flashing, and now he didn't dare to delay in the slightest, and immediately retracted his mind and let his consciousness return to its place.
As soon as Li Ding opened his eyes, he saw a red light rising into the sky, and disappeared in an instant.
Almost at the same time, he gritted his teeth, leaped forward, and fifty feet away, the stone pillar he had just finished drawing had already risen.
With his first experience, Li Ding jumped onto the stone pillar in just ten breaths, but when he patted his chest and turned around panting, his eyes almost didn't fall out.
Fifty feet behind him, the stone pillar he was standing on was gone.
Startled, Li Ding immediately used his soul power to pass through the water and see that the stone pillar had returned to its original position, and the dark red flower statue stood firmly on it, and it seemed that it was impossible to rise again.
Without this stone pillar, if you want to return to the stairs, it is a distance of 100 zhang, and it is absolutely impossible to run over it in ten breaths, and Li Ding has no way back.
"I wanted to do it all the time, but it turned out to be like this. ”
Li Ding didn't think that the stone pillar would fall, and he regretted and anxious for a while, but he had to be glad that he didn't stay on the stone pillar.
But then he had no choice but to keep moving forward, because he didn't know if the stone pillar under his feet would fall down the next time he changed.
There was still an hour before the next mutation appeared, and for a moment Li Ding couldn't help but lose his mind, should he recover his vitality first, or trace the figure on the next stone pillar first?
Is it possible to do these two things in an hour? Li Ding regretted it more and more, he had wasted a lot of time just now, and at the same time found that he had obviously overlooked one thing.
Dugu Weiyang can get out from here, but what kind of strength is the person, he can fight with the Vermilion Bird, at least it is also the late stage of the Xuankong Realm, maybe he doesn't need to draw any graphics at all, but he flew directly to the opposite side.
In comparison, Li Ding's strength in the middle of the Yuan Dynasty was simply seeking his own death.
At the thought that he might really die, Li Ding's expression froze.
"But I can't die yet, fight. ”
At the critical moment, Li Ding's character of becoming more and more frustrated was naturally displayed, judging from the two figures that had been drawn, he felt that as long as the wood attribute vitality in the dantian could be maintained at about sixty percent, he might rush over.
But with only one character wood attribute exercise, the speed of transforming vitality is limited, and Li Ding is not completely sure, not to mention that his body can withstand it.
