Chapter 24: Reincarnation of the Blood Lotus
Above the bright void sky, a majestic city is reflected in the skylight, and in the distance, the ridges and ravines, and the vast snowfields are even more clear. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Exquisite City and Sixiang Mountain?" Shu Ye exclaimed, feeling extremely magical, "I'm under the Beiming Snow Plain!"
He couldn't imagine that the entire Beiming Snow Field was actually an endless sea, and it was even harder to imagine that he could clearly see the scene outside.
"How come no one has ever found out that the entire Beiming Snow Field is floating on a sea?"
This underground sea is so vast that it must have existed for a long time, and it is impossible for people on the ground to find nothing at all.
"This is the only place in the sea where you can see the outside world. Xiao Bai quickly passed through this position, entered the black mist again, and asked curiously, "What does it look like outside?"
Shu Ye faced this question and didn't know how to answer, because in his memory, his understanding of the world was really very narrow, and he couldn't explain it to the other party, so he could only reply vaguely: "It's beautiful and interesting." ”
"I really want to go out and have a look. Xiaobai was full of hope in his heart, "It's too boring to stay here." ”
Shu Ye nodded, looked around, and thought to himself, this is like a hellish existence, and it is simply not something that people can stay in.
"Go out?" He had a flash of inspiration in his mind and said to Xiaobai, "Since I can come in, there must be an exit, as long as we find the location where I came in, we will definitely be able to get out." ”
"Really?" Xiaobai was overjoyed.
She didn't expect that she was still a fish, she didn't transform into a shape, and if she left the water for too long, she could only die.
"Hold on to me, hold your breath, we're going in. Xiaobai crashed into a pitch-black sea area and reminded Shu Ye, "We have to dive very deep." ”
Shu Ye looked at the darkness ahead, there seemed to be a huge cliff standing in the sea, blocking the way, the whole cliff was very wide, facing the dark void sky, I don't know where to stretch.
Under Xiaobai's reminder, he took a deep breath, held his breath, and dived to the bottom of the sea as she dived down into the deep sea.
Xiao Bai seemed to be familiar with the way, slippery through the deep sea ravine, and after a while, passed through a whirlpool with a turbulent undercurrent, and then swooped up and swam out of the water.
"Alright. Xiaobai reminded Shu Ye again, "We're in." ”
Shu Ye opened his eyes at Xiaobai's gesture and looked at everything around him, with a very shocked look in his eyes.
Above the heavenly dome, a peculiar gem is frozen in the void, constantly emitting layers of magnificent light, illuminating the whole space; looking around, the four cliffs with faces like knives are connected to each other, forming a rectangle, surrounding this place; on the horizontal plane, in the center of the space, a circle of water with a radius of 100 zhang slowly rolls, forming a peculiar pattern, the water in the circle is completely different from the surrounding black seawater, it appears very clear; in the center of the water circle, a strange tree with knotted branches grows out from the bottom of the water, and the branches are luxuriant......
There is no black fog that makes people feel frightened here, nor does it have the fishy smell of seawater, but on the contrary, there is a cool air in the air, with a faint hint of the fragrance of flowers.
"It's like two worlds here. Shu Ye was puzzled in his heart and asked secretly, "Where is this?"
He raised his head and looked at the void sky for a while, observed carefully, looked at the four towering peaks that stretched out, and finally saw the clue, "I am inside the bottom of the Sixiang Mountain. ”
The four main peaks of Sixiang Mountain are located in the southeast, northwest and northwest directions, just arranged in a rectangular shape, echoing with the cliffs that go deep into the bottom of the sea here, and the valley road is in a vertical and horizontal state, and the trend of the mountains reflected in the void sky is also exactly in line, there will be no mistake.
"Sixiang Mountain!" Shu Ye whispered, his pupils suddenly shrank, trying to find the location where the Tengyun Legion and the Ye Clan were fighting.
"Northeast. The little white fish rolled his eyes to the sky and reminded.
Shu Ye looked carefully in the direction, and sure enough, he saw that there was a thin line of blood light running through the heavens and the earth, which was slightly different from the surrounding light, if he was not careful, he really couldn't see it.
Xiao Bai saw a flash of surprise in Shu Ye's eyes, and without waiting for him to remind him, he quickly swam towards that direction.
"What kind of tree is this, it can grow here. When passing through the central pool of clear water, Shu Ye looked at the strange tree that grew out of the bottom of the sea, and was amazed, "And it can bloom here, it's amazing." ”
"Where, where ......" Hearing the word flower, Xiaobai was suddenly excited, and the fish head jumped out of the water in an instant, almost throwing Shu Ye off, "Where are the flowers?"
Shu Ye didn't know why she was so excited, grabbed her edges and corners, and pointed to the three budding flowers in the green leaves, and asked her to pay attention.
"This ...... How is this possible?" Xiaobai said, with a tone of disbelief, "It's only been five thousand years, how can it bloom, last time I waited fifteen thousand years for the flowers to bloom." ”
"Fifteen thousand years!" Shu Ye's heart shook and exclaimed, "What kind of flower is this, it takes fifteen thousand years to bloom once." ”
"Hey...... It's hard to get this flower to bloom. Xiaobai's tone was full of sighs, "This flower seems to be called...... Reincarnation Blood Lotus, I don't remember it clearly, if it weren't for it, I might still be a small fish with unopened wisdom. ”
About 20,000 years ago, Xiaobai accidentally broke into this place, happened to meet the flowers, and after swallowing a few petals with all his strength, he cultivated for 20,000 years to get to where he is now.
Originally, five thousand years ago, she had waited for the blood lotus to bloom and be able to get the opportunity to transform into shape, but unfortunately she was robbed by a nasty ghost who broke into here at some point, making her wait so long.
This time this reincarnation blood lotus was able to bloom in five thousand years, it must have been something that nasty ghost had done.
"Reincarnation Blood Lotus. Shu Ye silently wrote down the name of this flower, watched Xiaobai wandering around the water circle greedily, looked at the budding flowers, and asked, "Are we going to wait here for the flowers to bloom?"
"Hmm!" Xiao Bai replied, "Although this flower is extremely difficult to bloom, as long as it blooms, the time from blooming to full bloom is very short, about three days." ”
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that she can't afford to miss.
"Then we can take it off now, can't we?" Shu Ye asked in a hurry when he wanted to leave here.
"No, I can't. Xiaobai replied without hesitation, "This flower can only exert its effect if it is picked and eaten when it is in full bloom, otherwise it will be useless, and its flowering period is only three days, and if you miss it, you can only wait for more than 10,000 years." ”
"It's so bothering!" Shu Ye was speechless, so he could only sigh, quiet down, and wait with her.
"Then why do you want to connect to the outside world when this blood lotus is in full bloom. Xiao Bai muttered in a low voice, "Can he get out of the Soul Locking Needle and leave here?"
She was always up and down in her heart, feeling that something big was happening, and said to Shu Ye: "Let's go see what that nasty ghost is doing, I always feel that he must be planning some conspiracy." ”
Since 5,000 years ago, after suffering a big loss at the hands of the other party, Xiaobai has always been very cautious, and every time he sneaks here, he just hides underwater and observes secretly, afraid of being attacked again.
"Nasty ghost?" Shu Ye was stunned for a moment, reacted instantly, and agreed.
A man and a fish quickly circled the water circle, slowly approaching the cliff to the east from underwater, and showed their heads slightly on the sea surface a hundred feet away from the cliff.
Shu Ye fixed his eyes and looked towards the so-called Broken Soul Peak, only to see that on the smooth and flat cliff face, a black drill shaped like an iron needle nailed a skeleton to the cliff wall, and a layer of fine lines centered on the black drill, like water lines, spread to the entire cliff face in a circle, showing a black light under the magnificent light.
Shu Ye looked around suspiciously, not knowing where the nasty ghost that Xiaobai had brought his attention to was.
However, when he fixed his eyes back on the cliff again, a terrifying scene began to appear.
The pitch-black, seemingly dead skeleton that had been dead for an unknown number of years, suddenly gurgled and moved, and the living flesh began to grow inch by inch on the bones from the inside out.
Shu Ye gasped, and felt a layer of cold sweat instantly break out behind his back.
Gradually, he noticed that every inch of flesh and blood grew on the skeleton, the soul locking needle that was nailed to the skeleton would vibrate, and the light formed by the surrounding lines would suddenly flicker, and even the entire cliff face would tremble with it.
It wasn't until six hours later, when the flesh on the skeleton had grown, that the Soul Locking Needle quieted down.
Shu Ye looked at the man on the cliff who had completed the growth of flesh and blood, and saw that his figure was extremely tall, and his whole body was covered with scars, and he was dripping with blood.
Shu Ye saw that he was silent for a long time, and suddenly raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, and the angry killing intent roared out, rolling up monstrous waves on the sea, and at the same moment, his hands condensed two very rich black gases, and gradually pulled towards the soul locking needle nailed to his heart.
However, before he could reach within three inches of the Soul Locking Needle, the fine lines around him rippled like water waves, shooting out a dazzling light, and a mysterious forbidden power transmitted to the Soul Locking Needle through the lines, but in an instant, the black qi in the man's hand was dissipated, and the flesh and blood of his arms were scraped off inch by inch.
At the same time, a greater force soaked through his heart, eroding his flesh inch by inch, devouring his power, and then in just two hours, he was once again a black skeleton, hanging on the cliff.
For the next two days, Shu Ye quietly observed, only to see that he was always going back and forth between life and death, reincarnating every six hours, never stopping.
"Xiaobai, is this the nasty ghost you are talking about?" Shu Ye asked in shock.
Six hours of a cycle of life and death, each time is a thousand cuts of pain, just thinking about it, he feels a sense of fear.
"Hmm. Xiao Bai replied in a low voice and said, "But his strength is much stronger than the last time I saw him, and he can actually shake the soul locking needle, you know, this cliff face, I can't even get close to the range of ten zhang." ”
Shu Ye didn't expect the forbidden power here to be so terrifying, and he didn't expect that a person would be so strong that he could hold on for ten thousand years under this power.
Thinking of the scene when the man was angry and roaring, Shu Ye was amazed and yearned.
Just as he was about to ask Xiao Bai about more secret things here, his mind suddenly crossed the battlefield, the unstoppable laughter and mysterious black palm in the black gas, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he said in shock: "Yes...... It's him!"
