Section 27 Formation Diagram
Yang Tianhong had a lot of strength, and the skullcap was dragged back and forth. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Obviously, he was difficult to say about the question raised by Yang Tianhong, but because of the identity of the owner of the other party's Linglong Treasure Lock, he had to answer. Despite her reluctance, Skullcap still wept and said timidly, "They, they're all dead." ”
Yang Tianhong was a little surprised: "How did you die?"
"The time that the two spirit masters of the Ice Extreme Overlord Grass and the Nine Spirit Jasper Root have existed is too long now. I only know what happened to the previous Medicine Garden Spirit Master, that is, the senior of Cordyceps. ”
Skullcap clutched the clothes on his body with both hands, and said pitifully, "It was eaten by the previous owner." At that time, I was still very young, and I had just been planted in the medicine garden, and although I had opened my spiritual wisdom, I had only been practicing for one hundred and twenty years. The owner seemed to be seriously injured at the time and was in dire need of a large amount of elixir. It was at that time that Cordyceps sinensis was taken away, as well as ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, Huangjing and snow lotus...... That time, the master looted the Zhenling Medicine Garden very much, and all the medicinal materials and spiritual treasures that were more than a thousand years old were taken away. Later, the master needed more elixirs, eight hundred, five hundred, three hundred years...... In the end, even the two hundred years of immature medicinal herbs were collected. The medicine garden has become completely deserted, and I am the only one left to open the spiritual wisdom. I don't know if it's because I don't have enough years to grow? Or is it something else? In short, the master never appeared again, and the aura in the medicine garden became less and less. The spiritual veins in this place seem to have dried up, which is why the area has been reduced again and again. ”
Yang Tianhong asked suspiciously, "In that case, why don't you leave here and find another suitable place to grow?"
"Of course I want to leave, but the main body is here, and I can't get out. ”
Skullcap, who had transformed into a human form, replied with a wry smile: "The Zhenling Medicine Garden has an extremely powerful binding effect on the medicine spirit. I'm okay, I can transform into a human form and walk around outside, but my body can't get rid of the restrictions of the treasure lock. Moreover, the transformation of the outer body will consume a lot of spiritual energy, and the medicine garden has been dry for a long time. At such a time, transfiguring the outer body and leaving the treasure lock is simply killing oneself. ”
Looking at the poor skullcap, Yang Tianhong pointed to the bricks laid on the ground and asked, "Since it is a medicine garden, why is there no soil?"
This question obviously touched the sadness of Skullcap, and he suddenly became tearful: "No way, the medicine garden has not replenished spiritual power for hundreds of thousands of years. I can only harden the ground with spells, otherwise the spiritual power will dissipate faster. If the spiritual power here is completely exhausted, I will really sit here and wait for death. ”
A skullcap with a growth period of more than 200,000 years is only a few hundred years at most.
This kind of thing does require a very special environment to happen. Yang Tianhong felt that Skullcap was not lying, and the situation inside the Linglong Treasure Lock was like this. What's more, the huge medicine garden with an area of hundreds of thousands of hectares has shrunk sharply, and now only about three square meters are left, such a huge change is indeed terrifying.
Thinking of this, Yang Tianhong asked, "Apart from you, are there any other medicinal spirits here?"
"No more. ”
Skullcap wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and while observing Yang Tianhong's expression, he sobbed and said, "The last time the previous master collected it, he took away all the two hundred years of medicinal materials. Later, the spiritual power of the medicine garden dissipated, and all the other medicinal materials that had been planted entered a closed state and fell into a collective sleep. ”
Yang Tianhong's mind turned quickly, he glanced at the skullcap, and asked with a smile: "What, you did this?"
Skullcap didn't lie. He nodded honestly and admitted: "The remaining spiritual power is just a little, no one knows when the next treasure lock master will appear?" I was the strongest in the medicine garden at that time, of course, I want to close the medicine garden and concentrate the spiritual power for me to use alone." But even so, the residual spiritual power could not meet the normal needs. I can only breathe a little bit of spiritual power every day to stay alive. As for cultivation...... It's simply impossible. ”
Yang Tianhong turned around and walked back to the big room outside, pacing back and forth, and the skullcap also came out of the narrow medicine garden, groveling and following behind, and he was a low-eyed and pleasing attendant.
The time flow rate inside the Linglong Treasure Lock is three times slower than that outside, so Yang Tianhong doesn't have to worry about being suspicious after meditating for a long time. He stood in front of the tomb of the nameless teacher, stared at the wooden tombstone that he had written by himself, and said lightly, "You have two choices now. ”
Skullcap obviously didn't expect him to say this, and subconsciously opened his mouth wide and let out an "ah".
Yang Tianhong turned sideways, staring condescendingly at the groveling skullcap, his voice full of undoubted majesty: "Hand over your natal spirit, and then swear that you will always serve me as the Lord." ”
The Linglong Treasure Lock has an extremely strong binding force, but Yang Tianhong's strength is low. This enlightened skullcap is very cunning, God knows how many fabricated false elements are in those words he said? But this is not the point, as long as he honestly swears allegiance to himself with blood, of course Yang Tianhong will give him something he wants.
For example, Reiki.
"Natal spirit?"
The skullcap in the form of a man was a little flustered, barely squeezing out a smile on his face, and said dryly: "No, there is no need for that, right? You are already the owner of the Linglong Treasure Lock, that is, my master." As long as it is your order, I will obey it. Natal spirits are too troublesome and dangerous. I think, still, forget it!"
This guy's reaction was similar to what he expected.
Yang Tianhong smiled sarcastically and said calmly: "Then, you only have one other choice left." ”
The skullcap man suddenly had an extremely bad association in his heart, and asked in a trembling voice, "You, what are you referring to?"
"Ice Extreme Overlord Grass and Nine Spirit Jasper Root have all been taken away, they are elixirs, and the meaning of existence is of course to serve the owner of the Linglong Treasure Lock. In that regard, you are no different from them. ”
Yang Tianhong slowly lowered his head, narrowed the distance between him and the skullcap, exposed Bai Sensen's teeth, and whispered in a devilish voice: "I want to refine a furnace of life and creation pills, and I still lack the main medicine of the last year." You've lived 200,000 years, long enough. Although the aura is not very sufficient, it is barely usable. Anyway, this Treasure Elixir Garden has been abandoned for a long time, and it is my luck to be able to get a leftover meal like you that was picked up by others. ”
Skullcap froze, her eyes straightened, and her whole body began to tremble involuntarily.
The previous words were basically true.
However, the skullcap withheld the most important information.
The Zhenling Medicine Garden is indeed in urgent need of spiritual power replenishment, and the spiritual power that can be replenished will be absorbed by the skullcap in a short period of time. Although he was unable to cultivate for 200,000 years, his consciousness realm was far beyond that of any monk in this world. Skullcap is confident that his skills will increase, and then he will go all out to break the shackles of the Linglong Treasure Lock, and escape as far as he can. Since then, the world is so big that you can go anywhere.
In a word, this is a skullcap that yearns for freedom, is unwilling to be firmly bound in the medicine garden, works for black-hearted capitalist monks, and has ideals and ambitions.
Now, Yang Tianhong told it very directly: I want to make alchemy, and I want to dismantle you in eight pieces.
The current skullcap simply can't resist.
Many fathers will beat their disobedient sons. After his son was beaten, he more or less had thoughts like "I will beat you when I grow up". Regardless of whether this kind of thing will happen for the time being, no matter how painful and miserable the beating is, the son must first face the reality of "I haven't grown up yet".
The same is true for skullcap.
Handing over the natal spirit means becoming Yang Tianhong's slave forever. Perhaps, if he is accidentally injured one day, he will directly chew and eat the poor skullcap like the former owner of the treasure lock to heal his injuries.
However, if he didn't agree to the conditions, he would now chew and eat the poor skullcap, even if it was not to heal the wounds and diseases, he could also strengthen his body and increase his cultivation.
The difference is only before and after the time you become a part of someone else's body.
Compared with the two, Skullcap can only reluctantly obey reality, honestly hand over his natal spirit, sign a blood oath with Yang Tianhong, and change from a happy bachelor to a suffering contractor.
"I know you're reluctant. Don't worry! Even if it's alchemy, at most a few roots on your body are enough. As for the spiritual veins, I can only say that I will look for them first. If you encounter it, you will definitely not let it go. ”
As he spoke, Yang Tianhong took out an object the size of a fingernail from his pocket and handed it to the skullcap with a sad face.
As soon as the thing arrived, the bitter color on the skullcap's face immediately disappeared, and instantly turned into an incomparably wonderful, complex expression full of ecstasy, flattery, and flattery.
It was a bone that Yang Tianhong had cut from the corpse of the Heavenly Demon King Zi Xuan.
The demon clan that has cultivated into a spirit is full of treasures.
Take the tiger as an example: bones can be soaked in wine, tiger meat strengthens the body, tiger skin is precious and scarce, and the tiger whip is the dawn of happiness for thousands of poor men whose families are unhappy.
(Environmentalists please ignore the above section.) )
Skullcap is also a demon clan. The food chain of the mundane world is still common in the cultivation world. Vegetarian animals eat grass, carnivores hunt vegetarian animals for a living, and the carcasses of carnivores after death decompose and become nutrients needed by weeds and plants...... A fist-sized skeleton of the Heavenly Demon King contained extremely rich spiritual energy and nutrients. For skullcap, which is a medicinal material, it is simply an absolute treasure that is hard to buy and willing to exchange for at any price.
Holding the purple bone tightly with both hands, the skullcap stuck out its tongue, licked it greedily, closed its eyes, and quickly opened them, exclaiming with great satisfaction and happiness: "This is the most delicious thing I have ever tasted in my life." Me, I, I...... Master, whatever you want me to do, I will go to the soup and do it. ”
Looking at the crazy skullcap, Yang Tianhong shook his head speechlessly, threw down a sentence lightly, and then left the Linglong Treasure Lock.
"The name of skullcap is not good, so let's change it. From today on, your name is Huang Shiren. Remember, it's your new name. ”
......
There is one last day left in the spring competition.
All the participating schools have reached the most critical time. Being able to hold on until now means a battle for the championship and runner-up. The competition was extremely fierce, and thousands of young monks were killed in the arena. Cultivating immortals is not so carefree as imagined, and the cruel reality is actually as simple as the word "life and death". It's just that those who survive to the end will get extremely rich prizes, and the victors can also take advantage of this to become successful people who have a lot of cultivation capital among their peers, which is extremely enviable.
The disciples of the Guiyuan Sect have already packed up. If Zhang Xuan won the championship of the single competition of water attributes, it was already an unexpected gain. As for the rest of the disciples who participated in the competition, they were either seriously injured or killed in battle. If it weren't for the respect for the presiding Fang Taiyi Sect, Guo Linsheng would have left with all the people in the sect today and returned to the Guiyuan Sect.
Sitting in the audience with all the disciples of the sect, watching one young and promising monk after another die on the field, and watching one winner after another happily walk onto the podium, Guo Linsheng only felt extremely emotional, and his words were full of sighs.
"It's like this in all life, constantly fighting, constantly fighting. The truth is brutal, but you have to step on someone else's corpse to stand taller and see farther. ”
"There is no law among the monks. In many cases, if you don't kill someone, someone else will kill you. ”
"I'm not trying to instill in you a sense of killing. But if you are successful in cultivating in the future, you will naturally have to go out and travel alone. Remember, not everyone with a smile can be trusted. Behind the smile and sweet words, there is often a sharp knife hidden that pierces your heart at the moment of your negligence. ”
Yang Tianhong stood behind Guo Linsheng's side, listening to this serious teaching to the disciples, and bowed his head slightly.
Guo Linsheng is worthy of being the master of the Gengjin Palace, and his thinking and teaching methods are very special. He is very radical, and he does not have the compassion of Buddhism to feed tigers with his body, but believes that as long as he kills all the evil people in the world, the world will naturally become clear.
Everyone's "Tao" is different, and comprehension becomes particularly important.
Chai Ning sat on the chair at the back of the seat, lowered his head, and said nothing.
In the previous battle, Chai Ning was seriously injured by his opponent in the formation map illusion. According to the normal order and rules, under the premise of being approved by the Kasuga Dabi Judges, the seriously injured can directly participate in the final Dabi according to the group and number of competitors.
In other words, Chai Ning now has the qualification to compete for the championship and runner-up of the "Formation Map" competition.
However, Guo Linsheng has already explained in advance: after he plays, he will admit defeat directly.
Chai Ning was seriously injured, and the array illusion not only caused damage to the mind, but also caused the psychedelic person's own meridians to shift. Of course, this injury can be recovered through recuperation. However, in a short period of time, the injured must not continue to fight, otherwise they will definitely die.
Yang Tianhong walked to Chai Ning and sat down, glancing at him from the corner of his eye.
In the more than ten days that they lived in the same room, Yang Tianhong had enough time to get acquainted with Zhang Yan and Chai Ning.
Zhang Yan is worthy of being a foundation-building monk from the Flame Palace, he is enthusiastic, his personality is as fiery as fire, and his cultivation is also the way of being strong and positive.
As a disciple of the Luo Tu Palace, Chai Ning is cautious and has a quiet personality. This is the foundation of studying the way of arithmetic, otherwise there would be no calculation formation and setting up illusions.
Like Yang Tianhong, Chai Ning is also a native of Chu. His father is the prefect of Changning, and he is a local official of Zhengsipin.
Looking at Chai Ning's clenched fists, Yang Tianhong asked lightly: "What, do you want to fight this last battle?"
Chai Ning raised his head slightly, and his face, which was pale from pain, showed a bit of loneliness and a miserable smile.
"I was able to become a disciple of the Guiyuan Sect because of luck. ”
"My mother is the concubine of the prefect of Changning. I never thought of that man as a father. He will do nothing but spend his days drinking, flattering his superiors, and brutally exploiting his subordinates and civilians. Of course, the poetry and song endowment are not bad, otherwise, they would not be the prefect of Changning. ”
"I'm not a sister-in-law, and I have the last food and clothing with my mother at home. That man doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, and prefers colors. He accepted his mother twenty years ago, and in the following years, he accepted three new aunts in a row. The mother was old and decrepit, and the man naturally lost interest. I have been studying hard since I was a child, and I have always thought about gaining fame and fame and saving my mother from that big house of intrigue. Do you know what those aunts do? They pouted the man and said a lot of bad things about my mother, and the man cut most of my money and my mother's food by half. Don't say it's hard to study, even eating is a problem. ”
"I met my teacher on the street by chance, and since then I have been accepted as a disciple of the Guiyuan Sect. That day, I felt like I was going crazy, I was like a bird coming out of my cage. I ran, laughed, screamed and rushed into the house, shouting at the top of my voice for everyone to hear. I saw the man's face full of astonishment, the powdered faces of the aunts distorted with resentment and jealousy. And the brothers and sisters who usually don't take me seriously, they either come up to flatter me, or sneer at me. I will never forget that feeling, and I decided that cultivation was the only way for me to get ahead. ”
An abnormal flush welled up on Chai Ning's pale face, and although his tone and voice were low, his emotions became extremely excited: "I know that the Spring Day Competition is a battle of life and death. I did not participate in the lottery of the disciples of the Lotu Temple, but directly asked the master to let me participate. Others seem to me to be mortal, but to me it is an opportunity. The so-called thought of going to heaven and thinking of falling to the ground, this is the case. ”
Yang Tianhong looked at Chai Ning calmly.
It could be seen that he was trying to control his emotions and not let tears fall out of his eyes. After all, Chai Ning is only a thirteen-year-old child, but with this perseverance and perseverance, it is already extremely rare among his peers.
