Chapter 54: The Enemy's Tracks
When Xiao Ming used to breathe and recover, in the eyes of others, it was just ordinary meditation and pranayama. There had never been any surprises, so he didn't care about it this time. But what he didn't expect was that when he began to breathe, the snake ring that Bai Zhen had turned into suddenly resonated with the core jade pendant of the Dragon Star Soul Wood given to him by the old lady, and then began to frantically devour the surrounding free soul energy—these soul energies were the soul of heaven and earth that Xiao Ming could not fully understand and absorb now. It is the most basic energy that is free between heaven and earth.
Xiao Ming was completely unable to absorb the soul of heaven and earth before, but after having the core jade pendant, he began to be able to absorb and use a small part of the soul of heaven and earth, but he could only use it when cultivating, and the effect was very mild, outsiders could not feel it at all, and at most people with keen mental power could feel the breath fluctuations.
But at this time, the devouring effect produced by the resonance of the snake ring and the jade pendant can be felt even by the most numb ordinary person.
When the devouring began, it had already attracted everyone's attention, and ten minutes later, the soul energy vortex generated by the devouring could even be seen by everyone in a way that was visible to the naked eye - faintly, everyone could see a vortex like a liquid and a gas starting to spread around Xiao Ming as the center.
At first, everyone instinctively sensed a hint of danger, but then there was a burst of surprise.
"My spiritual power is recovering at a high speed!" Situ Yelan said in surprise.
"The body is also recovering, at least three times faster than the normal speed!" Xiao Zongzheng nodded as he clenched his fists, feeling the power rapidly pouring into his body like warm water.
"The closer I get to Xiao Ming, the more I feel like this. But within three feet of him is a forbidden area, and after entering, there is a feeling that he will be swallowed!" Xiao Qingya is the most daring and direct. In just a few clicks, the situation was probed.
"What's going on?" the group looked at Irti and Gutyusha. The two women are Xiao Ming's apprentices, and everyone thinks that they know the specific situation.
The two women also shook their heads blankly. But everyone only thought that the two of them wanted to keep it a secret for Xiao Ming. I won't ask any more questions.
"Don't worry about it for now. That's a good thing for us. Everyone get closer, as long as they don't get within three feet of Xiao Ming. The closer the distance, the better the effect of restoration! Now that the situation is urgent, the sooner everyone recovers, the safer it will be!" Xiao Qingya thought about it and said.
Everyone thought about it for a while, and felt that Xiao Qingya's words were reasonable, so they no longer trembled, and each chose a position, although the number of people was not small. But if you want to be three feet away from Xiao Ming, spread it like this, in fact, the scope is not small, and everyone consumes the size of the order, and there is no need to compete for anything.
Xiao Qingya has not made a move, so she has not consumed anything, she is on guard for everyone, anyway, there is her king who creates zào ability, no matter what kind of enemy she encounters, she also has self-confidence and ability. Blocking the other party for a moment or three is enough for everyone to wake up from the state of pranayama.
When everyone else entered the state of pranayama, Xiao Qingya's stern gaze changed slightly. A strange color blurred from the bottom of her eyes, but in less than a second, it was replaced by another look, and soon, she appeared a little confused, as if she felt puzzled about the loss of consciousness at that moment just now.
Time flew by, and an hour later, Xiao Ming woke up from his pranayama. When he opened his eyes, he saw that everyone else was meditating beside him. Only Xiao Qingya looked at herself with a mysterious expression.
"You have so many secrets!" Xiao Qingya smiled like a little fox who had stolen a chicken cub as if she had taken Xiao Ming's handle.
"What did you say?" Xiao Ming was confused.
"Don't you know, you were very majestic just now!" Xiao Qingya smiled and told the truth of the matter. He also deliberately pointed to the snake ring on his left arm: "I feel that this is the reason for this thing! What the hell is this?"...
Xiao Ming also glanced at the snake ring on his arm, although the snake ring was not small, it was extremely conforming, and there was no sense of weight, if you didn't look at it with your eyes, you wouldn't even feel its storage. If Xiao Qingya didn't mention it, he would even forget that he had this thing on him for a while.
However, when it comes to explaining the origin of Bai Zhen. Xiao Ming not only knew Bai Zhen's stunning and mysterious beauty snake image, except that she knew that she was a tenant in his soul world, and in addition to knowing that she had something to do with the big plate. What else do you know? No. After sorting it out like this, Xiao Ming found that he didn't know much about Bai Zhen's situation.
What's more, Bai Zhen is related to the big plate, even if it is the only piece of information that Xiao Ming knows, he can't say it. Dapan has no room for negotiation in this regard.
"I don't know!" Xiao Ming could only shake his head.
"Don't you know?" Xiao Qingya smiled faintly, bit her lip lightly, and rolled her eyes: "Okay, if you don't know, you don't know......! Mysterious ...... Little one!"
As if to cooperate with her words, when her last word fell, Situ Yelan opened his eyes, and with that, the others also woke up from the pranayama state one after another.
As soon as Situ Yelan woke up, he also looked at Xiao Ming with a playful gaze.
Xiao Qingya laughed and stepped forward to take Situ Yelan's hand: "This person is so hateful, I asked him just now, and he didn't say anything!"
Situ Yelan raised his eyebrows: "Everyone has their own secrets, doesn't they?"
On the surface, it seems that Situ Yelan is helping Xiao Ming play a round, but other people's hearts are transparent, the reason why Xiao Qingya said this in front of everyone is actually to dismiss the opportunity for everyone to ask, which can be regarded as a kind of protection of Xiao Ming in disguise.
"How are you recovering?" Xiao Zongzheng looked at everyone.
"No problem, I feel very energetic!" Situ Yelan smiled and looked at Xiao Ming again: "Brother Xiao Ming, you are really our treasure!"
Everyone looked at Xiao Ming with a smile.
Indeed, whether it is attacking, defending, reconnaissance, cracking, or even the current recovery, all of them are dominated by Xiao Ming, although he is not a captain, but he has faintly become the core of everyone.
"Those who can work hard!" Xiao Qingya held Xiao Ming's arm intimately and said with a smile: "Since everyone has recovered, let's move on." The current situation seems to have no time limit, but who knows if there will be any hidden 'rules of the game'. So I think we'd better hurry up!"
"That makes sense, and if we lose contact with the outside world for too long, it will cause unnecessary panic!" said the Master of Celestial Language.
The eleven people present were all core figures, both for the survivors outside and for the seven major forces. Not to mention that these eleven people are really damaged, even if they lose contact for a long time, it will also cause great trouble.
"Let's go!"
After tidying up a little, everyone set off again, and the palace they were in was actually a palace complex. At this time, everyone enters the front hall, after the front hall goes out, you can see that the whole palace group is arranged in a symmetrical way on the left and right, and there are five neatly arranged buildings on the left and right, although it is square, but because it is extremely tall and magnificent, it has a kind of intimidating momentum.
If you follow the normal way of exploration, after leaving the front hall, it is naturally the most appropriate for everyone to explore at the same time, but now in the face of unknown enemies, especially the G virus that may be stored in Zài, no one dares to be careless, so they can only use the most time-wasting, but safest way - everyone acts together.
Xiao Ming looked around with the soul search technique, and found that the materials of these palaces all had a strong interference spiritual power effect, although the soul search technique could penetrate, but the result was very vague, and he could know that there were creatures in the buildings on the left and right, but what it was, it was not clear at all. ...
Xiao Ming told everyone about the situation.
"Hehe, what's the big deal? When we didn't have this convenient ability before, wouldn't we be able to go the same way, but now with your ability, we have become timid?" Xiao Qingya smiled proudly, her face full of indifference.
Master Tianyu also smiled slightly: "Xiao Ming, your ability is indeed very convenient, but sometimes, you should maintain awe and courage towards the 'unknown'!"
Xiao Ming's expression perked up, a feeling of enlightenment was born spontaneously, and there was a small breakthrough in the realm, although it was only a matter of an instant, but Xiao Ming knew that he had made progress again, he nodded gratefully, learned the appearance of the master of Tianyu, and put his hands together: "Thank you master for mentioning it!"
"Hahaha, Tianzhi Jiaozi!" Master Tianyu was not complacent because his words made Xiao Ming break through again, nor was he jealous because of this, but just smiled with joy on his face. The look of happiness for Xiao Ming was extremely sincere. One has to admire the personality of the Master of Celestial Language.
"Xiao Ming, you make me jealous too much. Why can you break through like this?" Xiao Qingya made an angry look, but everyone could see that she was happy for Xiao Ming.
"Then choose a side at will!" Xiao Zongzheng glanced at the palace groups on both sides and said with a smile: "Lady choose!"
"Men on the left, women on the right!" Situ Yelan pointed to the right.
"That's it!" Xiao Qingya clapped her hands and smiled.
Then, before everyone could start moving, suddenly the whole ground shook, and then the ground shook more and more, and the waves appeared layer by layer, as if the ground had become the surface of the sea. Naturally, the palace complex was able to withstand such a powerful tremor and was able to hold on at first, but in less than ten seconds, the pillars of the front hall began to collapse, and countless stones fell from the roof.
"Everyone be careful, a powerful enemy has appeared!" Xiao Ming suddenly saw a huge soul energy reaction appear in the soul radar.
Roar!
A roar like thunder resounded throughout the palace. (To be continued)
