Chapter 6: The Black Hand in the Shadows
Although the two outer disciples were stunned by Hua Xia Jiu's actions just now, they dared to slack off, and soon accepted Hua Xia Jiu's five thousand spirit stones and gave Hua Xia Jiu a teleportation token.
"Hehe, hey, luckily, I saved 25,000 spirit stones. Hua Xia Jiu muttered in a low voice.
There are nine small doors on both sides of the teleportation hall, and behind the small doors are teleportation arrays leading to all parts of the continent. Hua Xia Jiu followed behind Bai Jinyin and the other five people, and walked in through a small door on the left that said Northeast Direction.
What Hua Xia Jiu didn't notice was that just as he walked into the small door, a man at the door of the teleportation hall walked out of the shadows, took a closer look at the small door he entered, and left in a hurry.
The teleportation room behind the small door is only forty or fifty square meters in size, and there is a rather complex and mysterious formation arranged in the middle, when Hua Xia Jiu and the others entered, an old man wearing a gray robe, a white head, and a white magic robe was sitting cross-legged on the futon next to the formation and meditating with his eyes closed.
When the old man heard the voice, he ended his cultivation, opened his eyes, got up slowly, bowed to everyone without humility or arrogance, and said unhurriedly: "Where are you going?" The middle-aged man has the strength of the Perfection Realm of the Turning Dan, but due to qualifications or other factors, it is difficult to enter and exit the realm in this life, so he was arranged to guard the teleportation array. Because the limit is approaching, the personality of this kind of person is often a little distorted, and he usually doesn't pay attention to the affairs of the sect, so he hasn't seen Huaxia Jiu, although he has heard of it, but he hasn't taken it to heart.
Bai Jinyin was a little dissatisfied with the old man's vague words and called everyone 'junior brother', snorted coldly, and did not speak. Seeing this, the big-eyed girl stepped forward, smiled sweetly, saluted the old man, and said, "Senior brother, let's go to Dayan City, and ask Senior Brother to help us activate the teleportation array." β
The old man's face remained unchanged, he glanced at everyone indifferently, and said, "Senior brothers, wait a moment. β
Ever since Hua Xia Jiu entered the teleportation room, he looked at the teleportation array with a look of curiosity. He even sketched a diagram of the structure of the teleportation array in his mind for the first time, and instinctively began to analyze and study. He quickly saw that this teleportation circle was made of ethereal stones as the main material, supplemented by six precious ores.
The old man took out fifteen spirit stones, which were inlaid in more than ten grooves in the teleportation array. Hua Xia Jiu saw it clearly, although the fifteen spirit stones were the same size as the lower grade spirit stones, they were obviously darker in color, and the spiritual power was dozens of times richer.
"Hey! This is a top-grade spirit stone!" Hua Xia Jiu saw a top-grade spirit stone for the first time, and he didn't hide the surprise in his heart at all, and whispered like a bun. This move immediately caused a burst of contempt from the two youths.
"Senior Brother Hua, this is the first time you have seen a high-grade spirit stone!" After the big-eyed girl negotiated with the old man, she heard what Hua Xia Jiu said, so she came to Hua Xia Jiu's side and asked. And as the big-eyed girl walked around, the two young men also followed, looking at Hua Xia Jiu with a look of vigilance and warning.
Hearing this, Hua Xia Jiu moved his gaze from the teleportation array to the big-eyed girl, and said calmly: "Yes, it's the first time I've seen a high-grade spirit stone. β
"Senior Brother Hua, I'm Xue Shanmei from the Puppet Academy! Uh! The two senior brothers around me are from the Sword Pavilion, the one on my left who looks like a famous scholar is called Cai Xiujie, and the one on my right is called Wang Minghui, who looks like a knight in the world. The senior sister with the cold face over there is from the puppet courtyard like me, and her name is Murong Bingxue. Hmm!What is the task of the junior brother going to Dayan City?" The big-eyed girl chirped, her voice was like a yellow bird, her big black and white eyes blinked and blinked, staring at Hua Xia Jiu, her mouth was like a firecracker, and she said quickly.
The performance of the big-eyed girl made Cai Xiujie and Wang Minghui look at Hua Xia Jiu's faces more and more dissatisfied, and even a little hostile, but because Hua Xia Jiu's strength and identity were too much stronger than them, and in order to appear graceful and polite in front of Xue Shanmei, they still hugged Hua Xia Jiu to show that they had said hello. Over there, Murong Bingxue glared at Xue Shanmei a little speechlessly, and nodded to Hua Xia Jiu with a slight stiffness.
"Senior Sister Xue, according to the notice of the Sect Affairs Hall, I went to Dayan City to kill a person named Huang Sanbao. Xue Shanmei asked heartlessly, and Hua Xia Jiu replied without any care, and directly said her task.
Bai Jinyin and Murong Bingxue glanced at each other, and couldn't help but think at the same time, how could this reputation of Huaxia Jiunuo be like a rookie in cultivation.
At this moment, the old man in the gray robe suddenly said: "The teleportation formation has been prepared, all junior brothers and sisters should enter the formation!"
Xue Shanmei still wanted to say something to Hua Xia Jiu, while Murong Bingxue shouted, the former playfully stuck out his tongue at Hua Xia Jiu, smiled sweetly, and then followed Murong Bingxue into the teleportation array.
Seeing this, Hua Xia Jiu followed the five people and stepped into it.
When the old man saw everyone entering the array, he took out a palm-sized array disk without saying a word, and pinched it, and a white light shot out from the array disk, slamming it on a cyan jade stone in the center of the teleportation array.
The next moment, Hua Xia Jiu only felt an inexplicable aura that seemed to float in this magical magic circle.
At this moment, Xue Shanmei's somewhat hurried voice sounded: "Ah, Senior Brother Hua, why haven't you activated the teleportation order-"
Without waiting for Xue Shanmei to finish speaking, Hua Xia Jiu was not allowed to make any moves.
The entire originally quiet magic circle came to life as if it had suddenly gained vitality, the white light was flourishing, and an inexplicable and mysterious aura shrouded down, formless, tasteless and colorless, but the six people in the formation were all surrounded by it. As a result, the six of them lost the ability to move in an instant, and they couldn't even blink an eye.
Hua Xia Jiu saw that the old man's face changed greatly, and faintly heard a curse and something like damn. The old man obviously thought that since Hua Xia Jiu was teleporting with the five people, he should know this most basic common sense.
The next moment, a vast low roar that seemed to come from ancient times, with an ancient atmosphere, in the distance, and seemed to roar in Hua Xia Jiu's ears, Hua Xia Jiu suddenly only felt that it was dark in front of him, and then his body was light, and there was a feeling of floating up, as if the whole body had lost its weight, and almost at the same time, a terrifying force came from all directions, squeezing towards his flesh, and then a terrifying feeling that was as violent as ten thousand insects biting his flesh came to his body in an instant, and every inch of skin and flesh of his body seemed to be bitten by ants at the same time, and it hurt into the bone marrowγ
Hua Xia Jiu was shocked in his heart, and a look of horror flashed in his eyes, he had experience in teleportation when he participated in the secret shooting meeting in Wuling City, but what he didn't know was that it was only a short-distance teleportation, which was very different from ultra-long-distance teleportation, and the teleportation process was obviously different.
Although the pressure and pain at this time can still be withstood by Hua Xia Jiu's strong ** and strong willpower, he doesn't know if the pressure and ant-like bites will increase later.
Fortunately, Hua Xia Jiu's worries did not appear, and after ten breaths, in the intense and unspeakable pain, the darkness in front of him suddenly receded like a tide, the light shrouded again, and the strange and terrifying feeling of ten thousand ants devouring his body slowly dissipated. Hua Xia Jiu felt that the sky was spinning in front of him, and he couldn't help but stumble and fall to the ground.
Today's three watches, nearly 10,000 words, are really tiring. I just ask the brothers to have enough money to be able to cheer, and those who have a monthly ticket vote vote, but they really don't have to beg for a red ticket -- if they don't even have a red ticket, then give a good review --
