Chapter 470: The Next Road
The long night passed slowly, and the silver moon and stars gradually faded away.
It happened to be near a low mountain, the trees were sparse, and there were no ancient trees to obscure the sight to the east, so everyone sat cross-legged in place, silently in the darkest time between the two days, to welcome the dawn.
Yin and yang are entangled, heaven and earth are delivered, and a red sun is rising on the eastern horizon, but it is not visible for the time being, but it is certain that a new day has come.
As usual, the group washed a little with the water poured into the Tu Lagoon River when they first entered the Guzhou Plain, and made breakfast by Hongxiang, and reminded by Hongxiang that the prey from several elders was piled up like a hill in the Guanghan Palace in Xiao Cong's mustard, in order to celebrate his joy of the Holy Gu, Xiao Cong took out a few large birds and finches in the early morning and threw them to Hongxiang, so that he could pour a good meal and open a meat dish for everyone to make up for the fright he received last night.
Xiao Cong was full of heart, but Hongxiang was very dissatisfied - he received such a troublesome thing when he got up in the morning, and everyone had to worry about it, but it was useless to worry about it, the work was given to him by Xiao Cong himself, if he didn't do it, would it be like that?
For the first time in the morning, Xingliuyun had to eat in, and Xiao Cong asked for wine with a shy face, Xiao Cong also gave it, and he also drank a few cups, Xingliuyun and Yin Nuo drank more, but they knew that they were not drunk after all.
Eat and drink to your heart's content, and continue on your way.
Without the people of the Seven Divisions as guides, I would have thought that this guild would become more difficult, but who knew that Jiayin said that this matter was not difficult at all, and she gave Xiao Cong two choices,
"The first route that you think is more safe, from here around a semicircle, to the opposite end, and then continue north, and the second route, which you think is more risky, goes directly through the center of the Guzhou Plain, although it is indeed a bit risky, but it is not impossible, and it can save at least half a month. β
Xiao Cong was not in a hurry to make up his mind, and asked Jiayin:
"Which one do you think we should choose?"
Gayin's tone is sprinkled,
"Article 2. β
"Why?"
"Legend has it that a little outside the center of the Guzhou Plain, there seems to be a powerful human tribe, I haven't heard of anything hurtful, so it doesn't necessarily threaten us, maybe we can become friends, if we can catch up with them, not only can we go out of the Guzhou Plain smoothly, maybe we can shorten the time even more. β
The ghost girl couldn't help but say:
"But there are a lot of powerhouses in the center of the Guzhou Plain, and if we are unfortunate enough to run into them, there is really no chance at all. β
Regarding the ghost's doubts, Gayin just smiled faintly.
Xiao Cong was also noncommittal.
It may be that such a scene is a little embarrassing for a girl, Ouyang Xun seized the opportunity to "heroes save beauty", he gently tugged at the corners of the girl's clothes, and whispered:
"The giants you mentioned are not within the scope of our consideration at all, their existence can easily detect us, maybe they have already discovered us, but they absolutely disdain to deal with us ants. β
The ghost girl whispered in response:
"But we have Xiao Cong here, the only remaining Xiao family in the Xuanzhen Realm, this is a great temptation for them. β
Ouyang Xun shook his head,
"This point is not to be considered, first of all, Xiao Cong has a secret treasure guarding him, they may not be able to find him, secondly, even if he can be discovered, then the other party must at least be above the cultivation of the Tongtian Realm, the cultivation of the Tongtian Realm is the most affected by the Great Dao, and it is also the most embarrassing, and the slightest carelessness will lead to the punishment of God, and the only remaining Xiao family in the Xuanzhen Realm, the cause and effect involved is too great, and eating Xiao Cong can't let them fly on the spot, so if they have a little brain, they will definitely not attack Xiao Cong, and if they eat Xiao Cong, it is difficult to say whether he can survive the next tribulationγ β
"Then according to what you say, what else is there to discuss, can't you just walk directly from the center of the Guzhou Plain?" asked the girl with a frown.
Ouyang Xun shook his head again,
"No, no, no, what we have to worry about has never been these old antiques who have cultivated to the sky, but those who have masters of the Liyang Realm, if they run into them, it will be difficult to say whether they will win or lose, after all, our cultivation span here is too large, from the Heavenly Realm to the Liyang Realm, as long as there are a few more stars on the other side, they will definitely be able to leave a life from our side, it is not easy for us to get together, who do you think Xiao Cong can leave behind in his heart?"
The ghost girl nodded thoughtfully,
"Well, that makes sense. β
............
Ouyang Xun whispered to the ghost girl At this time, Xiao Cong and Jiayin were not idle,
"Have you ever been in contact with this Terran tribe?"
Gayin smiled and shook his head,
"No, I haven't seen it. β
"Then how can you be sure that there is such a Terran tribe in the depths of the rainforest?"
The ghost girl whispered to Ouyang Xun again:
"Yes, she hasn't seen it yet, so she's sure there's a Terran tribe here. β
Ouyang Xun thought for a moment,
"Hmm...... If my guess is correct, this Terran tribe is actually the prototype of Song Jiang's lies, Zhuang Tianci also said last night that their ancestors were very low-key when they lived here before, and it was impossible to contact the existence of the Mad Crocodile Great Sage, and besides, the Terran tribe that Gayin said should be much more powerful than the Seven Divisions of the Ancient Zhou. β
"You mean to say that this Terran tribe serves the Great Sage of the Crocodile?"
"I can't say for sure, maybe they made it up themselves. β
......
Xiao Cong nodded and said with a smile:
"Then, according to what the seniors said, we will pass through the center of the Guzhou Plain, but this way, we may have to trouble the seniors. β
As he spoke, Xiao Cong bowed his hand.
Gayin chuckled a few times,
"Don't bother, as long as you can remember my goodness, figure it out or tell me when the time comes, you know what I want. β
Xiao Cong didn't speak, pursed his lips and just smiled, in fact, he really didn't know what to say - this mother-in-law, why is she so stubborn, and she also believes that I know Jiang Caijun's news, and I don't know where such a strong self-confidence comes from, I just don't tell you, what's the matter!
This time, before the phantom could speak, Xingliuyun took the first step to ask,
"What's going on with Xiao Cong, he agreed so easily, no matter how you say it, you should inquire again, isn't it a little too hasty. β
Ouyang Xun shook his head,
"I don't understand this either. β
Yin Nuo asked Hongxiang in a shy face and whispered,
"Hey, little brother Hongxiang, what do you think?"
Hongxiang, who was frowning and thinking, was interrupted by Yin Nuo, and glanced at the latter very dissatisfied, and his eyes rolled twice before he replied:
"Probably because...... We now have a common enemy. β
Xingliuyun is not far from Hongxiang's side, and when he heard Hongxiang say this, he hurried over,
"How to say, how to say?"
Ouyang Xun naturally heard Hongxiang's opinion, and after thinking for a while, Yu whispered in a slightly distracted voice:
"The Evil Creatures Who Came Back from the Dead......"
Hongxiang's surprised gaze turned to Ouyang Xun's side, and nodded slightly, as if he didn't expect Ouyang Xun's brain to turn so fast. extraordinary
Xiao Cong was happy to see this, and smiled kindly,
"That's right, the evil creatures who have come back from the dead are their enemies, and we are also the enemies of these evil creatures for the time being, as the saying goes, the enemy of our enemies is our friends, and if we can make some progress in dealing with these evil creatures, I don't think they will refuse us. β
"So, my brother is going to start studying the fishy marten again?" Hongxiang asked.
Xiao Cong nodded,
"It's a good stepping stone. β
Ouyang Xun frowned,
"It shouldn't be enough on its own. β
"That's right, it's not enough, it's not enough, the fishy marten must be the lowest existence in this group of evil creatures, even if we study the fishy marten thoroughly, we may not be able to completely defeat this group of evil creatures by relying on these things, but we don't need to work so hard, as long as we can come up with something convincing to them, they will accept us." β
"But what if they already know what we've worked out? It's been almost sixty years since then. Hongxiang said.
Gayin smiled,
"There's no need to be so troublesome, when the time comes, you just need to show them your identity as Fourth Young Master Xiao, and this matter will be done. β
The star cloud was not happy to hear it,
"Just kidding! Our Xiao Cong's true identity, no matter how bright it is, if the other side has bad intentions, wouldn't we want the army to be wiped out here!"
The Phantom also chimed in:
"Yes, Xiao Cong's identity is too special to be said to be bright. β
Gayin said lightly:
"Compared to his identity as the last master of the Xuanzhen Realm, his identity as a demon subduer is even easier in this ancient Zhou Plain, you know, the ancient Zhou Plain is the most scrupulous place in the known territory of the Xuanzhen Realm, the human race living in the depths of the rainforest must not be a person who sells fame and reputation, and he doesn't like to cheat, with their strength, if they covet these, they would have gone out to break through the world a long time ago, so their traditional thinking gives us an opportunity, as long as you show the identity of the demon subduer, whether you are the Xiao family or not, they will double their respect for you, of course, if you still have doubts, just let me not say itγ β
Xiao Cong touched his nose,
"If things are really as the seniors said, then it would be the best, but I still want to challenge you to use what you said as a backup plan. β
"Whatever you want. β
The place of Wild Camel is secluded, because there were stone statues buried in the past, so under normal circumstances, no living beings are close to here, and now although the Holy Gu has been born, they must not have thought of this stubble in a short time.
Xiao Cong felt that they could stay here safely for at least three days.
So, he asked Ouyang Xun to take out the "bed" that trapped the fishy marten from the tortoise shell, and planned to use the magic circle to explore the fishy marten in depth.
Last time, I already knew that the group of evil creatures of the fishy marten relied on death to survive, about this, Xiao Cong didn't know what the mystery was, but the only thing he could think of now was the power of the evil creatures of the fishy marten to come back from the dead, relying on the use of the inversion of yin and yang, this power changed something about the fishy marten, so that the fishy marten could survive like other creatures under the ordinary yin and yang, and even more powerful than other creatures.
To verify this idea is very simple, just lay out a magic circle and let the space in the magic circle also be inverted by yin and yang.
But there are very few magic circles that can achieve this effect, and even if there is, with Xiao Cong's current formation attainments, I am afraid that they will not be able to meet the requirements, but he will not give up, so he searched in Mi Mustard for nearly two hours before he found a volume of formation maps related to this.
The name of this magic circle is called "Raspberry Array", just listening to the name, you know, it is also a trapped array, this magic circle can use the reversal of the universe to extract the trapped people's cultivation from life, in this magic circle, the higher the cultivation, the faster you die, especially the Tongtian Realm, which is closest to the Great Dao, if you unfortunately fall here, theoretically speaking, it must be faster and worse than Qi Tianjing- Of course, it is good to say whether this magic circle can trap the pseudo-immortals of Qi Tian Realm, because the exercises practiced by themselves are in line with the Great Dao, and it is not easy to exercise in this magic circle, and the luck is originally to transfer the vitality to protect one's body, but here it is to constantly withdraw the vitality and use the method of self-harm to accelerate death, unless it is to reverse the Xuan Gong, but if there is no accident in this way, it is generally a direct violent death!
Such a powerful magic circle, with Xiao Cong's current evaporation, it is absolutely impossible to distribute, but fortunately, in this magic circle, the yin and yang reversal is only a part of him, and he can take it out independently, and replace the other parts with the magic circle that Xiao Cong can achieve now, and fortunately, this magic circle was created by Xiao Fengzhe, in order to study the method of carving the formation with stone, Xiao Cong has already invaded his magic circle for a long time, and he can roughly figure out the style and way of this ancestor's array, so he thinks it is easier to get started.
Things in the world are always easier said than done, Xiao Cong felt that this magic circle was easy to get started, but he thought it was just himself, until he really started to arrange it, only to find that although it was only a part of the "Raspberry Array", the process of stripping from it was also rare, and there were too many subtle relationships, inextricably linked, and it was impossible to sort it out at all.
And that's not even about replacing the other parts.
After pondering motionlessly for nearly three hours, Xiao Cong took out this part about the inversion of yin and yang, but he didn't dare to relax, and he didn't have time to rest, so he began to do his best to take the next step - to make up the formation.
I thought that I had enough understanding of all this mouth when I withdrew from this part, so it might be easier to make up the formation, but I don't know that the job of making up the formation is more fucked, he Xiao Fengzhe is worthy of being the master of the masters, and the magic circle laid out seems to be the same, but in fact, it is not a way at all, Xiao Cong has been tinkering for a night, and in the end, his mind is exhausted, and he has not been able to drum up a hair, and finally he is inspired in the confusion of a small heart,
"Why the hell do I have to drill this horn tip, there is a magic circle moment made by him in the mustard, and it will be too late for me to use the magic circle stone carving as a formation building material for him to make up for it!"
Although he had new ideas in his heart, he couldn't hold it anymore now, so he fell asleep like this, but fortunately, when he woke up from his slumber, he still remembered this idea clearly.
After a long selection in the mustard, in the end, it is still the most suitable stone carving of "Immortal Embroidery Neon Array", which can be done with such a precious moment, which makes him feel a little painful.
"Immortal Embroidery Ni Array, the magic circle that is said to be able to help the immortal hijab change his face, isn't it a bit too pity to use it in this matter......"
"Forget it, use it, why keep it, you can't use anything if you die!"
Simply heartbroken, he threw the Immortal Embroidery Ni Array on the ground.
Xiao Fengzhe's magic circle stone carving took effect as soon as it landed, and Xiao Cong spent nearly a day taking this immortal embroidery neon array as the center, and filling up the part and other parts that were extracted from the raspberry array, so that it can be regarded as a magic circle that has the ability to reverse chaos and yin but will not hurt the lives of living beings.
Xiao Cong moved the "bed" that imprisoned the fishy marten to the center of the magic circle he had newly laid out, unloaded the pipa bone that was stuck into the fishy mink blade and hip bone, and the Zhuxian sword was inserted into the array eye, and after a flash of brilliance, all the movements of heaven and earth in front of the fishy marten and the fishy marten were displayed in front of everyone.
Seeing this scene, not to mention Xingliuyun Ouyang Xun and others, even Jiayin Niangniang, who had cultivated to reach the Liyang Realm, was also stunned at this time.
Although the pipa bone was opened, because it had been imprisoned for too long, the fishy marten at this time could no longer make any waves, and Xiao Cong was not afraid, because in his opinion, the current fishy marten was afraid that it would be difficult to even move.
Before the formation was activated, Xiao Congbi had already opened his purple eyes, and after the circle was activated, he looked at it carefully for a moment.
The weakness of the body did not hinder the self-healing ability of the fishy marten, but the wound made by the pipa bone healed slower than in his memory, but it was precisely because of this that Xiao Cong saw it more realistically.
In the process of healing the four wounds, there was indeed a rich and visible dead qi in the wounds, which slowly materialized, filling the wounds of the fishy marten, making it seem to have no origin in memory.
Xiao Cong suddenly remembered the thirteen ears that were cut off from the fishy marten, and in his memory, there was no change after they were cut off, which was a very important question - if these dead qi would turn into a part of the fishy marten because they appeared on the body of the fishy marten, they should have turned back into dead air after leaving the body of the fishy marten, but they kept their ears as they were, and after being thrown into the vat full of potions, the volatilized dead qi also dyed the potion black, which gave rise to two possibilities- This kind of dead air on the body of the fishy marten is not an ordinary dead air, in addition to the dead air, there is also a mysterious thing on the body of the fishy marten that can complement the dead air, and it is precisely because of this kind of thing that the dead air will gather and not disperse after condensation.
But these two may not be his concerns right now.
"The fishy marten has been in this yin-yang inverted magic circle for so long, why hasn't it changed at all? No, don't you want to do this, this is the magic circle that I spent nearly two days to set up, if there is no gain at all, then I will not lose to death!"
"Thinking about that stone carving of the immortal embroidery array, it really fucking hurts!"
According to his train of thought, the fishy marten that lives for life is in the magic circle of yin and yang inversion, and all the magical powers he has built up on the death qi should be invalid, even its wounds made by two sets of pipa bones should not heal itself, and the dead qi in his body should be expelled from the body because of the inversion of yin and yang, and he should die quickly with this process.
He thought to himself,
"In the outside world, the yang is above, the yin is below, the yang is better than the yin, so the dead spirit cannot exist for a long time, only by cultivating to reach the river crossing realm, the soul can be out of the body for a short time, and the inner world, the yin is above, the yang is below, and the yin is better than the yang, so the dead spirit can survive for a long time, even if the cultivation cannot reach the river crossing realm, it can also be completely out of the body......"
"Necromancy can survive for a long time, even if it can't reach the river crossing realm, it can be completely out of the body......"
"It's broken!"
He suddenly thought that the inversion of yin and yang has nothing to do with the state of the fishy mink living for life, there is a balance similar to yin and yang in the living soul, and it is only the body of the living soul that is supported by anger, and the soul of the living soul, under certain conditions, can be independent of the body, in the magic circle "raspberry", after the yin and yang are inverted, the cultivation of the gods can only be exhausted, and if you want to completely erase it from this world, you also need to find ways to deal with his soul, so in the magic circle "raspberry" There is also the part of soul refining, this fishy marten is also a living being, and there is naturally a balance of ordinary creatures similar to yin and yang in life, Xiao Cong was so annoyed, he thought that he had forgotten about this fork!
He came back to his senses, and when he looked back at the magic circle, he just wanted to pull out the Zhuxian Sword, but he was stunned by the scene in front of him, only to see that the fishy mink began to diffuse black gas, and its eyes dimmed, as if it was slowly dying.
In this way, Xiao Cong stopped drawing his sword.
"By the way, there is another thing, is the soul of this fishy marten also the same as ordinary creatures? If not, there must be some changes in such an environment. β
This time, Xiao Cong didn't guess wrong, but the result made him extremely distressed, the soul of the fishy marten came out of the body, gathering all the dead qi emanating from the body, although it did not re-conjure up a body, but it condensed but did not disperse, as if it was ...... It seems to be getting harder than before.
Xiao Cong quickly summed up in his heart,
"The death gas is only existing in the yin, and the death gas is condensed in the body of the fishy mink, perhaps not to give it the ability to heal itself, but to serve its special soul body, and the self-healing ability is just an accident brought about by this, that is to say, the body of the fishy marten is still a dead body rather than a living body, and the combination of the dead body and the dead qi produces such a rare self-healing ability, and its special soul is precisely because of these dead gases, of course, there may be some other things that can be combined with this dead body......"
"And then? And then ......."
