Chapter 1267: Imprint
When he came to the center of the valley, Xia Fan's eyes froze.
Because it was found that there was far less rubble scattered here than outside, which was quite unconscionable.
Judging from Xia Fan's observations all the way, the core of the formation in this valley is located in the center of the valley, and there must be the most intense death qi, corpse qi and yin qi here, which will of course attract thunder and lightning to bombard.
It stands to reason that under the bombardment of hundreds of Great Five Elements Divine Thunder, the center of the valley was completely razed to the ground, and even a deep pit of more than 100 zhang was exploded.
But in fact, this is not the case, which is very strange.
Especially Xia Fan's intuition told him that Gu Xiaoyun would not die easily, but all the way he came over, Shen Nian had been paying close attention to the wind and grass in the valley, but he had neither seen Gu Xiaoyun fleeing nor found any trace of her, which was quite strange.
If it is said that she died under the thunder and lightning bombardment just now, then with her strength in the late stage of the Grandmaster Realm, there will not be even a trace left.
"Be careful, Gu Xiaoyun is not dead, and he has not gone far. Xia Fan said words in his mouth, reminding Dudu, his heart moved, and he directly released the fire dragon clone.
"Hoo ......" Raging flames fell from the sky, enveloping the entire valley like a huge lid.
The sporadic rain of fire fell and smashed into some places in the valley that made Xia Fan suspicious.
Under the impact of the flames, many rocks ...... shattered in an instant.
"So you're hiding here, come out!" Xia Fan snorted, and the rain of fire scattered around suddenly burned towards a boulder that was thirty or forty zhang high.
Before the rain of fire arrived, the boulder had already shattered.
A fiery red figure flew out of it, and it was Gu Xiaoyun, who had disappeared before. Her hiding place was not the boulder, but her own corpse vial.
The corpse vial was originally a strange treasure, although it could absorb corpse qi and nourish corpses, but it did not have much corpse qi condensation, so it would not be attacked by thunder and lightning, allowing Gu Xiaoyun, who was hiding in it, to escape a catastrophe.
"Woo ......" As soon as Gu Xiaoyun flew out, he rushed towards Dudu with murderous intent, and the skeleton whip was swung up, and he was about to attack.
At this moment, a sharp roar sounded, and golden light fell from the sky, blasting straight down towards Gu Xiaoyun.
It was the fire dragon clone that was high in the air that spewed out the long-standing Sun God Needle.
When locked by the dazzling golden light shining on the Sun God Needle, Gu Xiaoyun couldn't help but be frightened, and a thought rose in his heart, that is, if he was hit by it, he would definitely die.
It's just that now that the Sun God Needle has flown head-on, Gu Xiaoyun has no chance to dodge at all, and all she can do at this time is to wave the skull whip and block it in front of her.
"Bang ......" The moment the sun god needle slammed on the skull's long whip, the golden light burst out, and countless black-green breath burst out from the skull, and as soon as it was illuminated by the golden light, it immediately dissipated in countless miserable and desperate screams.
"Snap ......" The skeletons cracked in response to the sound and turned into powder scattered with the wind.
Under this blow, the skull whip in Gu Xiaoyun's hand shattered.
However, the sharp golden light formed by the Sun God Needle did not disappear there, and even the momentum of the impact did not weaken at all compared to before.
"Poof...... sounded as if a needle was piercing the raw cowhide, and the Sun God Needle had already pierced Gu Xiaoyun's body, and instantly broke out of the body, leaving only a brilliant golden light raging in his body.
Gu Xiaoyun's cultivation was originally a corpse path, and he didn't know how thick the corpse qi had accumulated in his body, but now he was irradiated by the sun god light contained in the sun god needle and ignited by the sun fire essence, which directly caused those corpse qi to explode in his body.
For a moment, Gu Xiaoyun's body was like a human-shaped lantern, emitting dazzling light from the inside out, and then it burst into flames.
"Ahh
Extremely unwilling in his heart, Gu Xiaoyun immediately decided to give it a desperate go.
Her idea was to directly abandon this body, let the spirit separate, and as long as she escaped the catastrophe in front of her, she would give up the corpse path and turn to the ghost path.
Although it is said that the corpse path and the ghost path are two very different paths, but in the face of life and death, Gu Xiaoyun can't take care of much.
"Young Master, can I take her in?" Dudu suddenly asked.
"If you want to, what's not to do. Xia Fan said with a smile.
Dudu was overjoyed and said, "Don't resist, I'll save you." ”
Before she could finish speaking, her corpse vial had already flown out, and the light shone brightly, pouring down like a waterfall, and shrouding towards the valley of clouds.
At the same time, Xia Fan's rather cooperative pinching technique temporarily suppressed the Sun Divine Light and Sun Fire Essence that were raging wildly in Gu Xiaoyun's body.
These two powerful powers come from the Sun God Needle, which is naturally controlled by Xia Fan. Otherwise, if you can put it but can't take it, it's still a magic weapon.
Gu Xiaoyun heard the words, but hesitated.
Of course, she didn't want to die, but she was hesitant to grovel to live.
She knew very well that if she was taken away by Dudu's corpse vial, she would be refined. Although his life is unhindered, and even his soul can be preserved, he will become his slave in the future, and it will be difficult to resist.
This is the domineering and domineering nature of the corpse bottle, as long as it is contained in it, it seems to be branded, and it is difficult to get rid of it.
"What should I do?" Gu Xiaoyun had countless thoughts flickering in his heart, and finally decided to give up resistance and choose to give in, driven by the desire to survive.
Because Gu Xiaoyun knew very well that even if she gave up her body, the possibility of success in escaping her soul was not very large, and even if she could succeed, the other party might not let her go.
If there is no way at all, Gu Xiaoyun can naturally give it a go. But now that there was another way to go, why would she risk her death?
When Gu Xiaoyun gave up resistance and was shrouded in the light on the corpse vial, the Sun God Light and Sun Fire Essence that were originally raging in her body also flew away from her wound and merged back into the Sun God Needle.
Seeing this, Gu Xiaoyun finally secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Gu Xiaoyun did not refrain from resisting, because her own strength was quite strong, it was not so easy for Dudu, who was slightly inferior to her, to take her away with a corpse vial.
It's like a half-grown child who wants to pull an adult away, even if the latter doesn't deliberately resist, but just by virtue of his weight, the child who wants to pull him away can be tired and half dead.
Xia Fan squinted and watched Dudu keep pinching the magic trick, urging the corpse bottle, trying his best to take Gu Xiaoyun away, although he was anxious for her, he didn't mean to help.
First, some things always need to be done by yourself to be able to benefit from them, and if others help, it will not have such a good effect.
Second, Xia Fan hadn't used this kind of thing before, and he didn't know how to use it, so he didn't know as much as Dudu about it, so there was really no need to meddle in it.
Although the process was a little slow and difficult, in the end, Gu Xiaoyun was still put into the corpse vial by Dudu.
This is not the end of the story, but only the beginning, because the corpse placed in the vial requires constant sacrifice. In general, the process is far more complicated than that of refining weapons.
Ordinary people raise corpses, they must first look for some weak walking corpses to practice, and then try to capture more powerful corpses after they have learned something.
However, Dudu almost omitted the previous step-by-step process, and directly arrested Gu Xiaoyun, who had the strength of the late stage of the Grandmaster Realm.
Although with the powerful power of the corpse vial, Dudu may not be able to refine it well, but it will take a lot of time and energy.
Fortunately, Gu Xiaoyun now seems to have completely accepted her fate, and she did not have the slightest resistance to Dudu's sacrifice in the corpse bottle, which somewhat made Dudu worry and effortless.
Xia Fan looked at Dudu's concentration on refining Gu Xiaoyun, but he didn't urge her too much, but stayed near her to protect her.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight days have passed. Due to the cloudy clouds in the netherworld, it is difficult for the sun to fall, so even the change of day and night is not so obvious, and Xia Fan can only silently estimate the time in his heart.
Dudu, who had been concentrating on urging the corpse bottle to sacrifice Gu Xiaoyun, let out a long sigh and stood up to look at Xia Fan, with a bright smile on his face.
"Young master, I have finally left my mark on her. Dudu said with joy on his face: "Although this is only the first step, there are still many things that need to be done in the future, but with this brand, she will not be able to betray me again." ”
"That's fine. Xia Fan nodded and said, "Can you release her, I have something to ask her." ”
Dudu nodded, and released Gu Xiaoyun with the corpse vial.
"Meet the master. Although Gu Xiaoyun was as cold as before, there was no shortage of courtesy, and he bowed to Dudu, very respectful.
However, Gu Xiaoyun didn't seem to see Xia Fan, let alone salute and say hello, and didn't even look at him.
Xia Fan wouldn't bother with her because of this, he still had this measure. As long as Gu Xiaoyun honestly serves in front of Dudu, even if she behaves more rebelliously in front of him, he won't care.
"My young master has something to ask you, don't hide it, answer it well. Seeing Gu Xiaoyun like this, Dudu couldn't help frowning.
"Excuse me. Gu Xiaoyun only looked at Xia Fan at this time, and said coldly.
"With your strength, is it the strongest in this netherworld?" Xia Fan asked. If he wants to leave Dudu behind, he must first feel the situation here, otherwise if strong enemies are everywhere, how can Xia Fan rest assured that Dudu will be left here.
"Not really. Gu Xiaoyun thought for a while, shook his head and said, "There are many more powerful than me." ”
When Xia Fan heard this, he couldn't help frowning.
Gu Xiaoyun has the strength of the late stage of the Grandmaster Realm, which is already quite powerful, if there is someone stronger than her, can it still be that the Dao Realm is not successful?
"This is impossible!" Xia Fan denied this idea in his heart, although this netherworld is very large, it cannot be compared with the human world. Since the human realm cannot accommodate the existence of the Lower Dao Realm, it is categorically impossible for there to be a strong person in the Dao Realm here.
Xia Fan asked a few more questions, and finally figured out the situation in the netherworld.
