Chapter Forty-Eight: Subduing the "Potential"
readx; The ghost woman was very kind, because of the return of Tu Tian, she gave Cai Wei a full day off. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info two little guys came to the mortal town to play.
Unconsciously, they came to the Yuelao Temple again, although it was not a festival, but it was still crowded. The young boys and handsome ladies were dazzled. The various stalls on the street are also lined up from beginning to end, which is extremely crowded and extraordinarily lively.
Tu Tian restored his child's nature, and ate a sugar gourd with Cai Wei, squeezing as the crowd surged.
After two years, Tu Tian has grown taller again, but he is still a chubby little doll, and Cai Wei is more and more beautiful and charming, with bright eyes and bright teeth, the corners of her mouth are crooked, and when she makes a sound, she can be sweet to people's hearts.
Everywhere they passed, all eyes were on her.
"Xiaotian," Cai Wei pointed to a big tree full of small cloth bags with a sugar gourd, "Let's also put our names in the cloth belt and hang them, so that Yue Lao will bless us to become husband and wife, give birth to a bunch of little heavens, and call us daddy and mother all day long." ”
"Okay!" Tu Tian agreed, went to buy white silk and a cloth bag with a red rope, and took Cai Wei to the "Chrysostom Shensuan" under the marriage tree, and wrote their names on the cloth belt with a cinnabar pen. Cai Wei wrote on the white silk again:
Tu Tian Cai Wei will never be separated.
Tu Tian wrote below: The old attachment to the wasteland is still there.
Cai Wei wrote again: Life and death are unswerving.
The twenty-two characters of red and glamorous, lined with elegant and white silk, seem to have a divine brilliance, flowing in the rolling red dust. Tu Tian jumped up, hung the cloth ribbon on the highest branch, swayed in the wind, and bathed in red dust.
They left the stunned crowd behind and ran away in a puff of smoke.
Many years later, the Yuelao Temple was robbed several times, but this big tree has always been full of gloom, not moving, more and more vibrant, green and bright. Just because the one on the treetop has two extraordinary names and a cloth ribbon with a vow.
I don't know if it's because of Cai Wei, or because of the jade pendant's "yang", the chill on Tu Tian's body is getting lighter and lighter.
On the second day, the ghost woman began a hellish drill, taking Tu Tian and Cai Wei to a barren mountain, where the weeds were knee-deep, and even in broad daylight, the wind was gusting, the clouds were sad, and the daylight was bleak.
The ghost woman said that this was originally a village and town, with more than 100 families, and they were all killed by an evil tree spirit more than ten years ago, and their pain and fear before death never dissipated, and over time they grew into "potential", and mortals will be robbed of their sanity and become idiots when they are near. The ghost woman asked them to subdue this "potential" and refine it into the ghost sword. At the same time, the ghost woman taught Tu Tian two big moves, one is "Nether Ghost Claw", and the other is called "Ghost Change". As for Cai Wei, her cultivation is still so slow, and it is not time to learn these two spells, otherwise she will be counterattacked.
Tu Tian pulled Cai Wei into the depths of the weeds, and when he looked at it, he found that the terrain here had already shown the shape of a grimace, and the deepest part was a deep cave, spitting out evil mist during the day, and devouring the moonlight at night, carrying out the most superficial cultivation.
The ghost woman also specially explained that although the tree demon was killed by the righteous path cultivator, it may not really be dead, so they should be extra careful.
Tu Tian and Cai Wei entered the cave, where the boulders were intertwined, and it was not easy to move forward. At the same time, the air was foul, and the smell of silt wafted from the depths of the cave, making people feel sick.
Tu Tian took out the ghost sword and cut off the protruding sharp stones blocking the way one by one, and his divine thoughts had spread to the bottom of the cave, and he saw a strong tree root entangled with a virtual ghost face. This is the "potential species", which is still very weak, and if it is given enough time, I am afraid it will be able to grow into a great place. Obviously, the tree spirit also wanted to seize the "potential seed", and Master's guess was true, it was not dead, and had been dormant here, waiting to seize this great creation.
Tu Tian was multitasking, practicing the Nether Ghost Claw and the Demon Transformation in the Sea of Consciousness as he walked, while quenching the sword with evil energy.
If mortals come, they will definitely have illusions, such as going to hell and being robbed of their sanity, but it will not work at all for the two people who have achieved little in the gods.
"It's here. Sister Caiwei, wait a minute, you entangle the tree spirit, and I will recover the 'potential seed'. ”
"Good. ”
The dryads spotted them, too, and a few of their roots wriggled and spread.
Cai Wei took the lead, rushing out and slashing off a tree root with a few swords, while holding the other roots firmly with her left hand, not letting them disturb Tu Tian.
Tu Tian was secretly happy in his heart, Sister Cai Wei's current combat power was not inferior to that of Jindan stage cultivators. He had no worries, and the Nether Claw reached out to grab the ghost face.
However, several more roots stretched out to stop him, and Tu Tian sneered, "You divide yourself like this, it's purely looking for death!"
The Nether Claw moved forward, grabbing the roots of the tree that came in, and it snapped with a few crashes. The severed roots still wriggle like snakes.
At this time, Cai Wei also cut down the other trees. The dryad found out that something was wrong, and knew that these two people were not easy to mess with, and the taproot immediately ran away.
Without saying a word, Cai Wei grabbed it in his hand with a shake, pulling the entire taproot out of the dirt, and at the same time the ghost sword was divided, one into two, two into four, and four into eight...... Until the dense number is not clear, the stalk is nailed into the root of the tree one by one. The dryad struggled violently, its essence was being rapidly drained away, terrified to the extreme, but it could not break free no matter what.
Tu Tian was greatly inspired when he saw this scene, and the ghost sword in his hand exploded with a "touch", turning into countless fragments and nailing into the ghost face, extracting its "potential".
"Xiao Tian learns quite quickly. Cai Wei clapped her hands and stood aside easily. The dryad spirit could no longer escape, and there was nothing to be done about it to let the essence drain away.
Tu Tian also relaxed, the "potential seed" was just formed, there was no consciousness, and he would not escape, just like a well that was powerless to resist, allowing others to absorb it.
"Sister Cai Wei, where did you learn this trick?" Tu Tian asked.
Cai Wei smiled: "One day when I was looking at the stars, I suddenly had an inspiration. During the day, a single sun can take away the brilliance of all the stars, but at night, when the stars come out, they can spread out the whole sky, and they are wonderful in their own way. I tried it many times before I succeeded, and I broke three ghost swords that I had worked so hard to cultivate. ”
"Sister Cai Wei is really amazing, I often look at the stars, but I can't think of these. ”
The two chatted casually, not taking this treacherous place seriously.
About an hour later, the tree spirit was sucked into a pile of dry powder, and Cai Wei's ghost sword was re-condensed into one, yin and restrained, unusually condensed, as black as black iron, and there was a touch of green light outside the sword, and it was no longer obvious that it was the exclusive weapon of the ghost cultivator.
However, the Heaven-Slaughtering Ghost Sword was still absorbing, and he sensed that a dense layer of fear and pain had also entered his Ghost Sword with the "momentum".
The ghost woman was guarding outside, and when she saw that a large area of evil grass was withering, and the gloomy clouds in the sky were gradually dispersing, she knew that the two apprentices had succeeded, and a smile appeared on her face, and she felt very proud.
After another five or six hours, the sun had already sunk into the western mountain, and Tu Tian and Cai Wei came out of the cave.
When Tu Tian looked at it with the Heavenly Eye again, he found that the ghost face had completely disappeared, and the righteousness of heaven and earth was returning.
The ghost woman was extremely satisfied, much earlier than she expected, and seeing that the two apprentices were not tired, she rushed to another treacherous place without stopping.
"The next place is a hundred times more dangerous than just now, you have to go all out, and the old body will also follow you two in, and the three of us will take it together tonight, which will be a great achievement." On the way, the ghost woman said.
Tu Tian asked, "Master, what kind of place is that?"
"It's the graveyard of your uncle. ”
“......”
The ghost woman glanced at them left and right. "What, do you think the old body is going too far?"
"No, Master, we're just curious......"
"Curious about what, curious about why the old man demolished his grave? He was one of the madmen of the year, a complete bastard. In order to cultivate the seventy-two demon children's formation, he did not hesitate to plunder the living babies, and hundreds of children died tragically in his hands. When the half-immortals of the family arrived at the door, the entire division was desperately resisting, but he quietly slipped into the treasure house of the division and stole the three strange corpses. As a result, the three strange corpses were lost, and the entire division was razed by others. It took great difficulty for the old body to track down his whereabouts, and he made a big swing of the oolong array and pretended to be dead, so the ghost believed it! The old body will take you to clean up the portal today. ”
"Kill!" Tu Tian gritted his teeth.
The three of them have flown out of the range of the Silver Snow Country and come to the territory of the nomads. Further north, there is a deserted area of snow and ice.
As they passed by a small tribe, they found that a funeral was being held there, and Tu Tian had a keen sense and caught some of their conversations.
"Even the children of the Ullihan family have been taken away by the demons, there are fourteen children, and when will this be the end. ”
"Hey, I have long advised him that he should go and encircle and suppress that demon, but the Ulhan patriarch did not listen, and said that he had to sacrifice cattle and sheep to appease the demon's anger. Does the devil still have a point?"
"The patriarch can't help it, there were several tribes who went to encircle and suppress it before, but in the end they didn't come back alive. We can't fight the devil. ”
"In the past, there were gods who occasionally came to help us, but now even the gods don't want to come, and this place has become a bad land. I'm already planning to move with my family to the Silver Snow Country south of the mountains, and my daughter-in-law will be giving birth in a few months, and I can't let the demon snatch my grandson away. ”
"Our family also has this plan, a few months ago Meng Tai came back from trading, saying that the Silver Snow Country has a new king, and he takes good care of us foreigners, and he doesn't look after us when he sees us like before, and he still exploits us fiercely. ”
"Then let's persuade the patriarch to move over together, at least leave the women and children over there, we will work harder as men, go back and forth on both sides of the mountain a few more times, sell some cattle and sheep can almost feed a family, in short, we really can't stay here anymore." ”
Tu Tian told the master what he heard, and the ghost woman sneered: "The old body has long concluded that he is not dead. This bastard is more cunning than a fox, ruthless in doing bad things, and like a rabbit when he is careful, he will run away at the slightest rumor. In the past few days of your absence, the old body and the blue toad have already searched his seven hiding places, and only one is true. When the time comes, the old body will be entangled in the three strange corpses, and Tian'er will break his seventy-two demon child array, and Cai Wei will quickly kill him, and his own strength is far inferior to yours. ”
"Yes, Master. "Cai Wei and Tu Tian are in high spirits.
