17 Furnaces

Ignoring Zhao Huaixu's scolding, Shen Qijing walked out of the dungeon. Zhao Huaixu's movement alarmed the guards to check, and he took the opportunity to go out of the Killing Martial Peak, but he did not immediately return to the Bright Moon Hidden Heron.

Standing on the top of the peak with his negative hand, Shen Qi looked at Wanjuan Building from afar.

The paulownia-colored round tower stands quietly on Tianlu Peak, silent in the deep night, and there is nothing unusual to see.

But Zhao Huaixu said that the top floor of this 10,000-volume building hides the treasure of Xuanlin - the furnace.

It is said that this furnace is a treasure that was passed down before the "fog erosion disaster", and it can steal people's luck and seize the creation of heaven and earth. In the previous life, Shen Qi had also heard the legend of the Creation Furnace, and I don't know where the rumor came from that the Creation Furnace could help cultivators break through the Feather Immortal Realm, break free from the cycle of life and death, and soar to become an immortal.

It is said that a battle broke out over the furnace. It's just that at that time, he was trapped in the Abyss of Apoptomy, and after he came out, he heard about it, and he didn't know the details of it, and only vaguely heard that it involved Xuanlin.

At present, combined with what Zhao Huaixu said, if the furnace is really the treasure of Xuanlin, it is hidden in the Wanjuan Building. Then there was a reason for the fall of the head of the Daomen.

It is not easy to practice with the thin aura in this world, and thousands of years have passed, and ascension has long become a legend. Many old monsters who had survived from the "Fog Erosion Catastrophe" had seen the prosperity of the cultivation realm back then, and when they came to the end of their lives, it was difficult not to be tempted by such a treasure.

But even if they take the furnace, no one will be able to ascend.

Shen Qi looked up at the crescent moon above his head, feeling the air without the presence of eclipse fog, and a look of anticipation appeared on his face.

A hundred years from now, the entire western realm will be swallowed up by the Sea of Eclipse Mist.

It will also be in ruins, just like in the previous life.

But it shouldn't be this time.

He took the trouble to put on such a good show, and now it's not time for the curtain call, so he can't let people tear down the stage.

The play has already been sung, and it is up to him to decide when it will end.

"Go and find out where the people of the capital are hiding, and in a quarter of an hour we will know the whereabouts of this seat." With a wave of his sleeves, he released the Red Falcon Brothers.

The Red Falcon brothers didn't dare to disobey, so they could only obediently turn out a few tens. body, look everywhere.

Birds with red feathers scattered silently in the night.

After a while, Hongfeng came back first to report: "I found traces in the cave not far from Huowei Peak. However, the other party should have used some magic treasure to hide, and the birds could only detect the breath, but they could not find people. ”

"Check it out."

Shen Qi followed behind him and headed towards Huowei Peak.

Huowei Peak is a small peak close to the southern land peak of the Vermilion Bird Palace, and because of its remote location, few disciples approach it on weekdays. The previous search had focused on the search, but nothing was found.

The cave that Hongfeng said is halfway up the mountain, the cave is not deep, you can see it all at a glance, and you can't hide people at all.

Shen Qi stepped on the ground of the cave, and a faint gray mist dispersed around him, gradually filling the entire cave. At this point, a mountain wall on the left that had not been shrouded in gray fog looked out of place.

"It's really here, let me see what magic weapon you use." Shen Qi took a step forward, pressed his palm in front of the mountain wall, and the violent filthy yuan in his palm surged out, pouring into the mountain wall.

Filthy Yuan is the power of filth, but after a moment, I saw that a layer of transparent enchantment appeared faintly on the mountain wall.

Shen Qi squinted and looked at it for a moment, and laughed: "It turned out to be the four elephants, Chen Po's person." ”

"Powder-faced Buddha" Chen Po has a magic weapon called "Four Elephant Square". This magic weapon can hide the body and hide the breath, as long as the barrier is not broken, it is difficult to detect even the Supreme Heaven Realm. However, this magic weapon also has a huge flaw, that is, after using it, it can only stay in place and cannot be moved.

If the cultivation is not enough, and the residual aura in the vicinity cannot be cleaned up, and the person who is tracking is cultivating higher, then it is easy to be tracked.

The two people sent by Chen Po only had the realm of forgetting the dust, but they were caught by him.

With his words, the "Four Elephant Fang" enchantment was torn apart by Filthy Yuansheng, and the person hiding inside suddenly appeared.

The two monks in robes discussed and fled separately on both sidesβ€”

They react quickly, but Shen Qi reacts faster.

Waving his sleeves to set up an enchantment, Shen Qi opened his ten fingers, and the red mansion was locked with his fingers, reflecting the dim moonlight, and countless filthy threads shot out, tying the two of them into zongzi, and even their mouths were sealed.

Shen Qi waved his hand casually, and the two were sent to the front.

"Looks like you're not going to cooperate." Shen Qi's eyes were faint, and his palm was pressed on the head of one of them: "Then I can only take it with some effort." ”

Filthy Yuan was initiated, and the person's body continued to twitch until Shen Qi's soul search was over, and he withdrew his hand before he lost his breath.

The other's eyes widened, and a muffled sound of horror came from his throat.

Shen Qi moved his gaze to him, and as he could, he got the information he wanted to know.

"Chen Po, this old monster seems to be afraid of death." Shen Qi sneered.

Among the four ghost kings, Chen Po, the "powder-faced Buddha", is the oldest and the oldest. He was one of the first people to go out of the western frontier and establish the capital of Xu. It is said that in the earliest days, there was a ghost emperor in Xudu, and the ghost emperor ruled the capital city and stood with the west.

But then the ghost emperor died, and no one suppressed the forces of all parties, and after the turmoil, the remaining forces went their own way, constantly changing, and continuing to this day.

Chen Po was the winner who survived the turmoil, relying on the various secret magic weapons that he fought for back then, and he survived to this day.

In recent years, he has almost stopped showing up, shrinking in the plague temple all day long, and it is rumored that his life is about to end, and it turns out that he is hiding in the dark to plot the treasure of Xuanlin.

Unfortunately, I was unlucky to meet him.

When others are unhappy, he will naturally be happy.

Throwing two corpses in the cave at random, Shen Qi went back in a good mood.

*

As soon as the day dawned, Wufu Peak was lively.

Mu Congyun was about to go to Guanri Cliff with Shen Qi to practice swordsmanship, when he bumped into Jin Qi who came to report the news.

Jin Yi swept away the gloomy color of the previous two days, and said excitedly: "Senior brother, Jiang Li has woken up!" The two drunken demons have also been caught! ”

Mu Congyun stopped and listened to him.

"Senior Sister Ayayin of the torture hall said that Jiang Li's life is no longer in danger. The power of the filth contaminated by the eroded fog was not as strong as expected, and the master rescued the person. It is that the residual erosion mist in the veins cannot be eradicated, and I am afraid that I will not be able to use spiritual power in the future, otherwise there is a danger of losing my mind. ”

Speaking of this, the smile on Jin Yi's face was retracted, and there was a feeling of sadness for the dead rabbit and fox. It's that the power of filth is not so strong, but the cultivators are contaminated with the eroded mist, and they are basically cut off from the path.

Mu Congyun's expression also sank, but Shen Qi moved his eyebrows.

It's a big fate.

"What about the demons? Where did you find it? Mu Congyun then asked.

"It was Jiang Li who woke up and mentioned the person who attacked him, and according to his description, the elders guessed that the person was the 'Son of Heaven' in Xudu. Elder Zhuge immediately ordered someone to search again, but found the corpses of two Xudu demons in the cave of Huowei Peak, as if they were some kind of "powder-faced Buddha" people. Before their deaths, the two were searched for souls, and their souls were destroyed. The elders guessed that they had started an infighting, and the 'Son of Heaven' wiped out the two of them. Now I am looking for the trace of the 'Son of Heaven'. ”

"The other party is treacherous, and he may not be able to find it." Mu Congyun remembered the experience of fighting the other party in Nanhuai Town, and was not optimistic about the results of the search.

Jin Yi sighed: "Listening to the meaning of the elders, the other party can quietly kill people in Huowei Peak, and most of the people are no longer in Xuanling. ”

- The search turned out to be fruitless.

However, Xie Cifeng went to the dungeon of the torture hall that day, and not long after that, Mu Congyun heard the news that the ghost king of the Xudu "Clothed Immortal" was released, saying that this spy on Xuanling had nothing to do with him.

Jin Yi was still babbling: "How can it be proved that it doesn't matter?" Wouldn't letting him go back would be a return to the mountains? ”

Mu Congyun vaguely guessed some of the master's thoughts.

How can the Immortal of the Silk Cloth also be a ghost king, if Xuanling really forces people to be anxious, I am afraid that there will be a big war, and it may even provoke the incident of Tongyudu afterwards. Now that the two ghost kings of Xudu have appeared in Xuanling one after another, it is difficult to say that it doesn't matter, if you release the fairy in clothes, you may be able to take the opportunity to track down the whereabouts of the Son of Heaven.

He understood in his heart, but he didn't say much.

Instead, Guan Lingyue said slowly: "The master and the elders must have a plan to do this. ”

Jin Yi couldn't figure out what to do, so he inadvertently raised his head, suddenly pointed to the western sky and said, "That ghost king has come out!" ”

A few people followed the prestige, and sure enough, they saw a figure in the west volleying, and the hem of the purple clothes was blown by the wind, it was the "Immortal of the Clothes" Zhao Huaixu.

He waved his hand at the elders of Xuanling, said "There will be a period later", and then stepped on a huge puppet bird and left, with purple clothes fluttering, adding a bit of arbitrariness.

Jin Yi was still angry: "It's cheap, this demon." ”

Mu Congyun shook his head and retracted his gaze, but saw that Guan Lingyue was still looking at the figure in a daze.

It took a long time for her to come back to her senses: "He is the demon of Xudu that he caught earlier?" ”

Jin Yi hurriedly replied: "It's not an ordinary demon, it's still a ghost king who has been divided into one side, what is it called 'Clothed Immortal' Zhao Huaixu!" ”

"Zhao Huaixu ......" Guan Lingyue whispered the name, and the hand placed in front of her lower abdomen was unconsciously twisted, but it did not leak half of it on her face.

She has always been quiet, Mu Congyun and Jin Yi didn't notice her abnormality, and after talking for a while, they went to work separately.

Guan Lingyue thought about it and went back to her courtyard, and stayed for a while before returning to the house and taking out a lacquered wooden box. There is a peony branch in the wooden box, even if it is preserved by magic, but after too long, the petals are still a little decayed.

She lowered her eyes and picked up the peony branch, remembering what the man said when he gave her the flower branch: "My name is April, and the peony blooms in April, and when the flowers bloom next year, I will go to Xuanling to find you, and use this peony as evidence." ”

April, Huai Xu.

Guan Lingyue looked at it for a moment, then raised her hand and scattered the spell to preserve the peony branches.

The flower of decay, no one who has no fate, cannot be kept.

*

The Immortal of the Silk Cloth left, the mountain protection array had been withdrawn, and the daily patrol was no longer carried out, and the atmosphere in the Xuanling Tomb seemed to have returned to normal.

Mu Congyun, who only practiced swords at the Sun Cliff every morning, often saw Elder Zhuge of the Torture Hall go to the Obscure Star Pavilion early and would not leave until night.

He guessed that Elder Zhuge should have come for Jiang Ling.

Jiang Li's parents had already rushed to Xuanling, but Jiang Li's injuries were not suitable for running around as soon as he recovered, so he was still raising them in Killing Wufeng. It is said that after Jiang Li woke up, he learned that he could no longer use his spiritual power, and he did not make any noise or trouble, but instead changed his previous arrogant and domineering temperament, and comforted Elder Zhuge and his parents in turn.

Mu Congyun and Jin Qi Guan Lingyue also went to visit him, and the injuries on his body recovered quickly, but the whole person looked much thinner, no longer wearing flamboyant red clothes, and the Yao Sun Sword, which was once inseparable from him, was also gone.

He had a feeling in his heart that he couldn't put it into words, but he couldn't say anything big about it, and in the end he just comforted him as dryly as others.

After coming back, he practiced swords at the Sun Cliff for a day.

Shen Qi looked at him from the side, puzzled: "Why is Senior Brother sullen after coming back from Killing Wu Peak?" ”

In his opinion, Jiang Li always troubles Mu Congyun, and now that something has happened, he should be happy. Why do you feel as if you are sad for the other party?

If something happens to his enemy, he will probably only be sad that he didn't do it himself.

Mu Congyun put away his sword and shook his head without explaining.

Just as he was about to return to the Bright Moon Hidden Heron, a disciple suddenly came to send a message: "Senior brother, the master wants you to go to the Obscure Star Pavilion." ”

Mu Congyun and Shen Qi went to the Obscure Star Pavilion together, but found that Jin Yi was also there.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xie Cifeng spoke: "There is a treasure in the Dongjiang Poison Gate called 'Cleansing Sins', which can be turned into a cultivator. Your Uncle Zhuge and I have discussed several times, and we have decided to send Jiang Ling to the poison gate, and borrow the poison gate to 'wash away the sin', or have a chance to clean up the eroded mist in his body. It just so happened that your little junior sister had been in the Poison Gate for several months and had not returned, so you escorted Jiang Ling to the Poison Gate and picked up your little junior sister by the way. ”
