Chapter 142: Retreat Again
Xia Yu pinched the jade of the four souls with his fingers and took it in front of his eyes and observed it carefully.
In Inuyasha, it is rumored that hundreds of years ago there was a very powerful shrine maiden named Tsuiko, who purified many youkai and made the youkai very afraid of her. So in order to deal with Tsuiko, many youkai merged into a very powerful big youkai and declared war on Tsuiko. In the long-term battle with this big monster, Cuizi was unable to support her body, and was finally defeated, and at the last moment before she died, Cuizi used her last strength to extract the soul of the big monster, integrated it into her own soul, and then released it outside the body. In the end, both the big monster and Tsuiko died, and only the crystallization of the soul of the monster and the soul of Tsuiko remained, which was the [Jade of the Four Souls].
However, later, the Jade of the Four Souls was accidentally shattered by Kagome with the Demon Breaking Arrow, and its fragments flew around the world, and this small crystal in Xia Yu's hand was just a small piece of it.
Putting away the Jade of the Four Souls, Xia Yu remembered the task again, collecting all the fragments of the Jade of the Four Souls to form the completed Jade of the Four Souls. However, since the jade of the four souls can be devoured, after Xia Yu got a fragment of the jade of the four souls, he must have thought of absorbing it and transforming it into his own yuan power, so should he keep it to synthesize a complete piece of the jade of the four souls?
This is a matter of trade-offs, the complete Four Souls Jade may be able to provide more powerful power, but when and when will it be able to form a complete Four Souls Jade? I'm afraid no one can know. Instead of waiting for the unknown future, Xia Yu is more willing to grasp the present. Therefore, Xia Yu, a fragment of this jade of the four souls, decisively chose to swallow it.
However, Xia Yu did not immediately use the Jade of the Four Souls. After all, he is about to leave here, if he swallows it now and enters a state of concentration, then he doesn't know when he will wake up, and he needs to find a secret place to retreat now, so that he can slowly digest this jade of the four souls. After thinking about it, Xia Yu felt that the phantom insect nest on the north mountain was the best place to retreat, secret, quiet, and no one disturbed him, and there was also the nourishment of the illusion mist, which also helped Xia Yu break through.
Nothing was said all night. Early in the morning of the second day. Lu Yue began to set out of here, and the whole Black Moon was busy. By noon, the last group of Black Moon's team had finally set off and were ready to leave Zheng Guo. And the summer rains. It's in this group.
All the way to peace and quiet. Arrive at the Jeongkook border. When passing the customs, Xia Yu rode on a horse and saw a wanted notice next to the city gate. There was an imperceptible wry smile on his face. Next to the bounty notice of rabbit and red stripe, there is another notice with a white face. At this moment, the front of the notice was full of people, all staring at the white-faced notice and pointing.
"Hey, when will there be another white face, who is this white face?" said a pot-bellied businessman standing at the front of the crowd, pointing to Xia Yu's portrait.
When a warrior next to him heard this, he immediately replied: "You are really lonely and unheard, and you don't even know about the white face? A few days ago, the black moon made a big disturbance in Yueshan City, and this white face was among them, and I heard that he killed countless people, and even the general of the garrison army, Lord Zheng Yuan, suffered at his hands. ”
When the merchant heard this, he was immediately surprised, and his eyes widened and he said, "Oh my God, this man is so strong!"
Seeing his surprised look, the warrior suddenly smiled superiorly, and then said: "It's not just strong, I also heard that Lord Zheng Yuan was seriously injured by this white face, after he returned to the royal capital, King Zheng was furious when he heard this, and immediately ordered the arrest of this white face, you look at the reward amount, 100 million silver dollars, higher than rabbits and red lines." ”
"Hehe, 100 million silver dollars, if anyone can kill this white face, they will not have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of their lives. ”
"Kill the white face, come on, this kind of big guy is not something you can covet. The samurai gave the merchant a disdainful glance before leaving.
At this time, in the carriage next to Xia Yu, the window suddenly opened, revealing Lu Yue's beautiful face. Lu Yue smiled lightly and said teasingly: "Look, Xia Yu, you are famous now." ”
Xia Yu smiled bitterly: "If you can, I really don't want to be famous in this way." ”
When passing through the border pass, the Black Moon team pretended to be a caravan and passed through the border pass without danger. After that, Xia Yu and they went all the way south, and after five days, they finally arrived at Beishan near Tongming City. Then, Xia Yu said goodbye to Lu Yue. After breaking away from Black Moon's team, Xia Yu entered the North Mountain alone, and after searching for a while on the mountain, he finally found the nest of the phantom worm.
Xia Yu immediately walked into this familiar cave, although Fluttershy is now dormant, but the phantom insects in the cave have long remembered Xia Yu's Yuan Force, and the phantom insects can also feel that there is a kind of existence in Xia Yu's body that is far above them, that is, Fluttershy's cocoon. Therefore, the phantom insects didn't dare to have any bad thoughts about Xia Yu at all, out of the instinctive fear of low-level demon beasts for high-level demon beasts, they could only surrender to Xia Yu.
Xia Yu traveled unhindered and soon reached the deepest part of the cave. This place is still the same as when Xia Yu left, the illusion mist is like a sea of clouds, filling the entire cave, and the stone platform that Li Chunfeng cut out with his sword is still quietly staying in the center of the cave.
Xia Yu immediately walked over, jumped on the stone platform, sat down cross-legged, and then took out the small Jade of the Four Souls from his arms, looked at it in front of him, and made up his mind in his heart: This retreat, we must break through the Xiao Yuan Realm! Then, as soon as Xia Yu took a breath, he threw the Jade of the Four Souls into his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.
Xia Yu immediately felt that a cold feeling slid down his throat and fell into his stomach. Then, the jade of the four souls seemed to burst open in the stomach, and this cold feeling suddenly spread in the stomach, and soon spread all over Xia Yu's limbs.
Then, the Yuan Force in Xia Yu's body seemed to be awakened by this cold current, without the guidance of Xia Yu, it suddenly began to speed up on its own, and it was different from the usual feeling when accelerating the Yuan Force, this time Xia Yu not only did not feel hot and dry, but felt as if he was in a cool mountain spring in the hot season, and the whole body seemed to be reborn, indescribably comfortable, and the body suddenly became very light, as if it was about to fly.
In fact, Xia Yu is really flying now! If Xia Yu opens his eyes, he will find that at this moment, his body suddenly released a faint white fluorescence, and his body seemed to lose gravity, slowly floating up and flying into the air!
Then, Xia Yu's body suddenly shook slightly, and then, a magical scene happened. Xia Yu suddenly shook down countless tiny white light clusters from his body, like fireflies, floating beside Xia Yu. Then, these clusters of light begin to merge with each other, and soon gather around Summer Rain into a glowing shell, like Fluttershy's cocoon, which envelops Summer Rain.
So, Xia Yu closed his eyes tightly, quietly sat cross-legged in the light cocoon, and began a long retreat. (To be continued......)
