Chapter 5 Stone Formations Blocking the Way
The other end.
"Xiao Yao, the boy of the He family, are you not satisfied?"
Ning Yuanshan, who was in the tent, deliberately lowered his voice, and frowned: "He is the person selected for you by the family, and the family has verified it in many ways and confirmed that he has a good talent." Like you, he is also expected to go to the Galaxy Alliance to practice, and our Ning family and the He family are friends again......"
"He was chosen by his family, not by me." Ning Yao impatiently interrupted Ning Yuanshan's words.
Ning Yuanshan shook his head and sighed, "As a woman of the Ning family, how can she have so many choices?" ”
"When I go to the Third Realm and prove myself in the Galaxy Alliance, I will have a choice." Ning Yao said coldly.
"It's not that easy."
Ning Yuanshan, who was a person who had come over, smiled bitterly and patiently explained: "In our world, you and the cultivation talent of the He family kid may be outstanding. ”
"But in the third realm, the aura of heaven and earth is even stronger, and there are almost no dirty impurities in the aura, and those little guys of the same age as you are not as talented as the two of you."
The meaning of the words is that she and He Ziren were recommended to the Galaxy Alliance, and they will not be the outstanding group of people in the alliance.
"Talent is not the only measure, it is man-made." Ning Yao's eyes were shining.
"That's right, you have this kind of self-confidence, which makes me very happy."
Looking at the light in her eyes, Ning Yuanshan thought of the vigor of his youth, so he said: "He Xiaozi came all the way to see you, and he is extremely satisfied with you. He is very favored in the He family, and the two elders have also said that if he insists......"
"You also know that there are two other people in the family who are competing with you for a place in the Galaxy Alliance."
Ning Yao was silent for a moment, the corners of her mouth gradually became cold, and she suddenly said, "He shouldn't have come to the Cen Lin Mountain Range." ”
Ning Yuanshan was stunned, looked at her deeply, and said worriedly: "Don't mess around." ”
"The people of the Star River Alliance, the Blood Moon, and the Yin Spirit Temple have all died so many in the Cen Ling Mountains, let alone him He Ziren?" Ning Yao seemed to have made a decision, and said coldly: "Liu Qigang is also dead." I, even Uncle Yuanshan, may not be able to leave alive. What is so strange about him dying in the Cen Lonely Mountains? ”
Ning Yuanshan rubbed his temples and sighed, "It seems that you have grown up when I am not paying attention." ”
"Okay, Uncle Yuanshan, you better go outside and keep an eye on it, I always feel that something is wrong with that pile of rocks." Ning Yao urged him to go out.
At this moment, the two of them heard a piercing wind whistle from outside, and without a moment's hesitation, they immediately rushed out of the tent.
In the deep darkness of the night, the two of them saw at first glance that there were several hazy and faint gray beast shadows, accompanied by the piercing wind howling in the pile of rocks, flying towards Pang Jian, who was sitting quietly in the corner.
The shadow of the beast was blurry, with no real flesh and blood, as if it had been melted by gray mist, and it was filled with a sense of manic violence.
Pang Jian, who was meditating, also seemed to be aware of the abnormality, and was already cautiously guarded.
"The soul of the beast in the mountain, condensed into the lowest level of beast evil!" Ning Yuanshan shouted.
At this time, He Ziren, Zhang Heng, and a few people who were retreating in the tent rushed out in no particular order.
"Beast Evil!"
He Ziren drank lowly.
He is also a Tongmai realm cultivator, and he can see those vague gray beast shadows like Ning Yao and Ning Yuanshan.
The tent he was in was actually the closest to Pang Jian, but seeing the souls of beasts turned into "beast demons", drifting towards Pang Jian, he had no intention of rescuing.
Moreover, he also had a mocking sneer on his face, obviously intending to watch Pang Jian suffer.
"Uncle Yuanshan, we need Pang Jian to live." Ning Yao drank lightly.
Ning Yuan Mountain suddenly flew out.
After a few flashes, he arrived in front of Pang Jian and took out a silver-white stone pillar carved with a dragon pattern behind him and put it on the ground.
"Flame of the Sun!"
A blazing flame burst out from the top of the stone pillar on the ground.
The flame dragon pattern surrounding the pillar seemed to suddenly become vivid under the flames, and it took on a hideous posture of teeth and claws.
Rushing out of the flames of several meters, he was blessed by the divine power of the "Yan Dragon", and above his and Pang Jian's heads, it turned into a raging sea of fire.
Not long after the head was formed, the lowest-level "Beast Demon", as soon as it approached the sea of fire, it quickly dissipated like water vapor, failing to really touch Pang Jian's body.
"What's going on?"
After doing all this, Ning Yuanshan, who was holding the Yanlong Stone Pillar in his hand, looked down at Pang Jian, who was sitting quietly.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he said coldly: "When I first saw you, there was clearly no aura ripple in your body, I only thought you were an ordinary hunter." Now that you have only entered this mountain range, your dantian actually has a faint aura, can you tell me what is going on? ”
"I just felt the existence of qi, and incorporated a little aura into my body." Pang Jian's face was calm.
Looking at the sea of fire still burning above his head, Ning Yuanshan who was holding the ground with the Yanlong Stone Pillar with one hand, he felt the high temperature of the surrounding Yang to Gang, and added: "Believe it or not. ”
"So coincidentally? Are you really just getting started? Ning Yuanshan sneered.
Pang Jian no longer explained.
"How long have you been practicing?"
Ning Yao's delicate figure swayed slightly, slowly pacing, and drank lightly in the distance.
Looking at her graceful figure and heroic demeanor, Pang Jian replied: "Three years." ”
"It took three years to realize the existence of qi and incorporate a little aura into the dantian?" Ning Yao's thick eyebrows were furrowed, and her face with a unique charm revealed eccentricity.
Before and after Pang Jian's body, she took out a finger-sized round white jade bead from her waist, shone it towards Pang Jian's dantian, and said to Ning Yuanshan: "It seems that it is really just a little aura." ”
As soon as she said this, Ning Yuanshan snorted coldly and lifted his guard, closing the sea of fire above his head to the stone pillar.
The blazing heat that enveloped Pang Jian suddenly disappeared without a trace.
"Don't blame me for doubting you, there are so many hunters in Linshan Town, only your family is independent, and it is also the closest to the Cen Lin Mountain Range." Ning Yuanshan grimaced, and said: "There have been many strange things in the mountains recently, in addition to the people from our seven major families, there may also be other ill-intentioned people who have mixed in, and we have to guard against it." ”
Pang Jian let out an "oh".
"In my opinion, I simply tied him with ropes and imprisoned him to take care of him." He Ziren suggested with bad intentions, "In this case, if he has any abnormal behavior, we can kill him immediately." ”
Pang Jian's heart sank, and his eyes suddenly fell on the eerie stone pile, thinking that if the Ning family really treated him like this, he would risk rushing into it to maneuver.
"It doesn't have to be like this, his strength and realm are very low, and he can't pose a threat to us." Ning Yao refused.
"Whatever you want." He Ziren also doesn't care.
Since Pang Jian's cultivation realm is so low, there is really something wrong, and it will be a moment's work for him to kill.
Pang Jian, who breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the pile of rubble, and found that the light of the white paper fan, copper hammer and bell had disappeared, and only the piercing whistling sound was still there.
Thinking back to the previous scene, he also sensed that there was some kind of invisible foreign object, scrambling to float towards him.
Those foreign objects that he couldn't see should be what Ning Yuanshan and others called the lowest-level "beast demons", Ning Yuanshan rescued himself under Ning Yao's instructions, and also destroyed those "beast demons".
However, in his feelings, those so-called "beasts" ...... It didn't seem to be trying to hurt him.
Instead, he couldn't help but be attracted by the "spirit pot" he visualized, and wanted to be gathered by him into his dantian spiritual sea.
Although it feels like this, because the "beast evil" has been cleared by Ning Yuanshan, Pang Jian can't verify it.
While he was thinking wildly, Ning Yao, who decided to continue to give him freedom, was also observing the anomalies in the stone pile, and discussing with Ning Yuanshan and others why there was a "beast evil".
Pang Jian was secretly investigating his dantian spirit sea again.
The Dantian Linghai is a small world in the human body, according to the "Hutian Qi Cultivation Technique", those who have not been promoted to the Cave Xuan Realm and have not been able to refine their divine consciousness cannot see the true scene of the Dantian Linghai, and can only have a vague perception.
He sensed it and realized that there were many cotton-wool-like things mixed in his dantian spiritual sea.
The cotton-like foreign body made his perception unsmooth, and it was difficult to get the full picture of the spiritual sea by induction.
He was like a blind man, moving around in one room, but he was always blocked by cotton wool and foreign objects, and he couldn't touch the general outline of the "room".
But he gradually felt that the little aura he had absorbed earlier would quickly disappear as soon as he touched those cotton wool foreign objects.
When the aura comes into contact with the cotton wool foreign body, if a little ghost fire melts a very small piece of "cotton wool", so that those "cotton wool" also become a little less.
It didn't take long for the little aura he had accumulated to be exhausted in his body.
"Your spiritual sea is filthy, and there are too many impurities and dross. If you want to practice, you need to gather the aura first to remove the impurities from the body, which is like cleaning a room that has been sealed for a long time and cleaning up the dust and debris. ”
"When the spiritual sea is clean, you can retain the spiritual energy, so that you can truly become a qi refiner."
When Pang Jian didn't know why, Ning Yao, who was holding a slightly shiny white jade bead, explained his confusion with a cold face.
Because she needs to use Pang Jian to guide the way, she feels that her attitude is good, but the superior posture in her bones has never disappeared.
The cloth bag containing the broken silver that she had left earlier was now like a kind of alms to a beggar.
"Oh."
Pang Jian replied with indifference.
It turned out that when the girl was talking to Ning Yuanshan and He Ziren, she was secretly observing him, obviously not completely believing him.
"Only then can you feel the size of your spiritual sea. However, ......" A hint of mockery escaped from the corner of Ning Yao's mouth, and he changed his words and said: "Generally, the spiritual sea is dirty, and the cultivation talent is often not good, even if the spiritual sea becomes bright and clean, the initial scale will be relatively small. ”
After a pause, she said again in a cold voice: "In the future, the space opened up is also very limited. ”
Like Sun Bin, she also saw that Pang Jian's cultivation qualifications were ordinary, and it was no wonder that it took three years to comprehend the existence of "qi".
In her heart, Pang Jian was no longer an object of suspicion, she didn't care about such a Pang Jian, and she didn't even bother to ask how Pang Jian got the cultivation method.
There was no word that night.
……
The next morning, the sky was just dark, and the sky was still dreary and gloomy.
"Knock knock!"
The sound of wild beasts galloping from the entrance of the canyon was soon seen in a group of men and horses, riding a dark gray one-horned rhino.
The skin of the strong one-horned rhinoceros resembles natural armor, releasing a metallic cold and hard light.
"Zhou Qingchen!"
Many servants of the Ning family immediately let out an exclamation when they saw the one-horned rhinoceros coming with a barbaric aura.
At the front of the line, on the body of the thickest one-horned rhinoceros, sat a tall man in green clothes.
The man was handsome and magnificent, half a head taller than the people behind him, and he stood out from the crowd.
When he rode over on a one-horned rhino, his eyes opened and closed like a flash of light, and when he found Ning Yao, his eyes brightened, and he laughed heartily: "It turned out to be Miss Ning, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”
Ning Yao's demeanor became elegant, pursed her lips and smiled slightly, and nodded her head to say hello.
Pang Jian observed from the sidelines and saw that her attitude towards the visitor was obviously much more polite than that towards He Ziren.
When the man in Tsing Yi swept his gaze over He Ziren, he didn't seem to see such a number one person, and he clenched his fists at Ning Yuanshan and shouted: "Uncle Yuanshan! ”
Ning Yuanshan smiled and beckoned gently: "I knew that the people of your Zhou family should be about to arrive." ”
When the Arrival Beast stopped, he took the initiative to tell the anomaly of the rocks, and expressed their confusion and concern.
"Old Han, you go ahead and take a look."
Zhou Qingchen, whose name is elegant and delicate, but his appearance and temperament are quite rough, said to a bloated old man in yellow behind him.
"Great!"
Han Duping, who was wearing a yellow robe and embroidered with a copper coin pattern on the placket, slipped off the other one-horned rhinoceros and waited until he reached the pile of rocks before taking out a special compass.
He didn't rush in, but walked around the outside of the pile, carefully checking for something.
Ning Yao and Ning Yuanshan were waiting for him, they seemed to know his ability, and they didn't say anything to warn him of the danger, and let him read the terrain with words.
Pang Jian also watched this person's actions curiously.
After half a ring, Han Duping returned to the front of everyone, his fat face full of solemnity.
"The scattered rocks form a kind of absolute array that can lock the yin qi, causing the creatures that die nearby, whether they are humans or beasts, to dissipate their souls within a certain distance, and they will be attracted by the stone piles."
Raising his head, he looked at the rock walls on both sides, and said suspiciously: "The rocks are all sliding down from the mountains on both sides, and they should have been chaotic, but they turned into a desperate array that locks yin qi." ”
"It's really strange, I don't know if this formation is really natural or artificial."
Han Duping explained his discovery suspiciously.
As soon as he said this, everyone immediately began to discuss, all kinds of speculations and conjectures.
Pang Jian's heart moved slightly, and he couldn't help but think of his father's actions when he followed his father to hunt when he was a child, and every time he entered and exited the Cen Lin Mountains.
Father, whenever he passed through this place, he would kick the scattered stones.
His father didn't seem to have moved the larger and heavier rocks, but many of the gravel that was far away had been kicked here by his father.
According to his father, it was the rocks that stood in the way and hindered their father and son's progress.
