Chapter 439: Obsidian Forest
As Qu Xingxuan said, it didn't take long to restore the Youchang Mirror. After Jin Chanyu went to retrieve the water of the Extreme Yin, Qu Xingxuan immediately began to forge it, and it was completed at noon the next day. The restored Youchang mirror mirror surface is polished smooth and smooth, and there is no trace of any cracking, it seems that Qu Xingxuan's skills in casting treasures are far more delicate than his usual character.
In order to settle the two apprentices, Qu Xingxuan parted ways with everyone after leaving the Naughty Boy Valley. He will take his apprentices to the Lianxia Peak Dust and Smoke Palace, and then wait for everyone to go back with Shi Potian. And Xiao Tianhe, under the guidance of Jin Chanyu, embarked on a new path.
Although there were some twists and turns in this trip to the Demon Domain, the initial goals had been almost accomplished: the demon clans of the Mengzhang Realm had gathered again, the Night Dance Youchang Mirror had been successfully repaired, and the Insect Department had ventilated with the other four and joined the alliance against the fierce demons. In addition, he also found a reliable companion for the upcoming trip to the Burning Sky Palace. Now there is only one last target left - ask Wu Xunyang, the king of Dapeng, to help.
It is said that Wu Xunyang, the king of Dapeng, is extremely senior in the demon clan, and even Shi Potian has to respectfully call him "big brother". After returning from the Burning Heaven Palace last time, he had recuperated for a while, and then suddenly gave up the position of the head of the feather department to the current head of the department, Lan Xiaoning. Lan Xiaoning's strength is strong enough, and his father Lan Hongbo has made outstanding contributions to the feather department, so the feather department has no objection to her taking over as the head of the department. However, many people complained about Wu Xunyang's sudden resignation. In this regard, Wu Xunyang did not give a convincing reason from beginning to end, but after hurriedly entrusting the affairs, he left Lian Xiafeng to retreat alone. As a result, the high-level leaders of the feather department naturally linked this strange incident with the previous trip to the Burning Heaven Palace. No one knows, but judging from the fact that Wu Xunyang was seriously injured in the Burning Heaven Palace, the Burning Heaven Palace must be very dangerous. You must know that Wu Xunyang's strength is also one of the best in the entire demon world.
Jin Chanyu was one of the few people who knew Wu Xunyang's retreat, but she only knew an approximate location. Hongyan Yuan is surrounded by mountains on three sides, but there is a gap in the southeast direction that connects to the Hanhai Gobi. And Wu Xunyang's residence is near that gap. This area has few mountains and rivers, and is quite barren, but it is almost sandwiched between the beast and the feather, and it belongs to the necessary place to go back and forth between the Soul Hunting Slope and Lianxia Peak, but the people who fly back and forth do not know that there is a master in the barren mountains and mountains below who is meditating.
"Speaking of which, it's my first time here. After Jin Chanyu landed, she looked around curiously, "I used to just fly from the sky, but I never fell down to take a good look." ”
In fact, this can be regarded as the end of the branch of the White Jade Mountain Range in the southwest direction, and the gray-white low hills stretch into the distance, and there are no steep ridges, only gentle slopes. He Tianyao makes an apt and interesting analogy for this scene: "Those hills are like a big pot of steamed steamed buns. "There is not a single grass or tree on this "steamed bun" hill, and the mountains are full of round stones. The "stone mountain" in the Valley of the Naughty Boy can be regarded as a drop in the bucket compared to here. Walking on the hillside, everyone even had the feeling that the whole mountain was made of cobblestones.
"This hill ...... It won't collapse suddenly, right?" He Tianyao was a little worried. Indeed, with each step, the feeling of the stones shaking a few times is very unsteady.
Xiao Tianhe didn't care: "This mountain has not just been built, it has been safe and sound for thousands of years, why did it collapse as soon as you came?"
"For thousands of years, no one has necessarily set foot on it. He Tianyao retorted, "The King of Dapeng already has wings, which is of course different from us who walk on two legs. ”
"You're too careful, I think the reason why King Dapeng chose to retreat here must have come to investigate the terrain first. No one would choose a place to live where the house would be buried in a landslide at any time, right?" Jin Chanyu covered her mouth and chuckled, "Besides, the King of Dapeng is also like you, with one head and one mouth, two arms and two legs. My body is special, six hands, ten legs, a total of eight pairs, do you think there is a difference between me and you?"
"Eight pairs of ......" He Tianyao was taken aback by this number, "As the saying goes, 'two fists are hard to beat four hands', if you keep those hands when you turn into a human form, one person can withstand three people! Hmm...... If you punch, no one will be able to beat you. ”
Several of the girls giggled.
"I suddenly thought of a question," Xiao Tianhe said, "Why does the demon clan have to transform into a human form after cultivation? It's not bad to turn into a phoenix, noble and elegant. ”
"Don't you still understand this truth? Because this world is the world of human beings!" Ao Jianwei replied, "People refer to other cultivators who are different from themselves as the 'Demon Clan', and the 'Demon Clan' turns into a human form in order to prove that they have achieved cultivation. Let's put it this way, if this world is the world of the dragon race, I am afraid that you humans will also become a 'demon race', and eventually everyone will naturally turn into a 'dragon form'. ”
That's an interesting and clever answer. Although it can no longer be said that the world is completely "the world of human beings", after all, human beings are the dominant force in this world, and before the appearance of the demon race, human beings are also the masters of the world, so the cultivation path of the demon race will eventually have the step of "turning into a human form".
"There is some truth in what Ao Gongzi said. But have you ever wondered why the world is the world of human beings and not the world of other life? This is not by chance or for any other reason, but because of this
The inevitable result of the difference between the human body and other life. Human beings have extremely high intelligence, and the cultivation process is relatively simpler and more effective than other lifeforms. It can be said that the human form is the essence of heaven and earth. Although the appearance is the same, until now, our demon clan has not been able to cultivate by perceiving the qi of heaven and earth like humans. Therefore, I think that the dantian and meridians adapted to the qi of heaven and earth are the most generous gifts that God has given to human beings, and they are much stronger than our demon spirit orbs. Jin Chanyu's tone was slightly envious and melancholy. Seeing that everyone was silent, she smiled again: "It's just a casual opinion." I'm very satisfied that I can take on a human form like this now. Compared with the main body, the human form is more dexterous, and it can save demon power more when acting. Although fighting in the main form can increase the power of the individual and take advantage of some characteristics of the main body, it will also increase the consumption of demonic power. So when a demon clan turns into an ontology, it must be really desperate, and if it doesn't succeed, it will become benevolent. ”
He Tianyao sighed: "Tut...... After all, it's a golden girl, what a wonderful thing to say, it makes me feel like I'm sorry for God if I don't work hard to cultivate......"
"Tianyao, if you don't work hard, what you're really sorry for is actually yourself. Ye Linglong said.
He Tianyao looked at her in surprise: "Sister Linglong, after all these times of getting along, I feel more and more that you are profound and wise." Brother Tianxiao's vision is really good, I ...... Ouch!" Before he finished speaking, he was hit by Xiao Tianhe on the head.
The crowd laughed and climbed to the top of a hill. As far ahead, the terrain undulates like a wave, reaching the majestic mountains on the horizon.
"Where is the residence of the Dapeng King?" Shi Haoming raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and as far as the eye could see, he did not see any shadow of the house.
Jin Chanyu shook her head: "I don't know either." Wait a moment and I'll knock on the door first. ”
"Door?" everyone looked at each other, where is the door on the top of this bare mountain?
I saw Jin Chanyu blow a loud whistle first, and then brought her natal weapon-Jin Yinqi. Everyone stared intently at her every move, what did it mean to show her weapon at this time? Suddenly, she shouted loudly, slapped her palms on the ground, accompanied by a loud sound of earth-shattering, and the mountains and rocks around her rumbled down the slope, and the dull and heavy sound seemed to be the galloping and roaring of thousands of horses. Several people were unsteady on their feet, and almost slid down the mountain with the stones, and they hurriedly tried to grab something, but there were no stones on the mountain, and the tremor under their feet did not disappear for a long time, and everyone clearly felt that the top of the mountain was sinking. After a long time, this collapse finally stopped, good fellow, the whole hill is a lot shorter than before!
He Tianyao got up in disgrace: "Miss Jin, when you want to make a big move again, the troublesome prophet will ...... us."
Ye Linglong's situation was also very embarrassing, she rubbed her aching waist and sighed: "Oh my God! What a surging palm power! Even the mountains have been flattened by you!" Xiao Tianhe They had once learned Jin Chanyu's powerful palm technique in the Luoyan Valley, but Ye Linglong was the first time to see it, and she was so impressed that she threw herself to the ground.
"Miss Jin, the way you 'knock on the door' is a little too ruthless, right? Who dares to 'open the door' for you!" Xiao Tianhe joked.
"I'm sorry, but I didn't expect this mountain to be made entirely of cobblestone, and it's not solid at all. Jin Chanyu smiled and said, "However, in this vast mountain field, if you don't make such a big movement, how can you shake Wu Xunyang out?"
"There is a word called 'knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger', but the master of the Jin Department is 'beating the mountain and shaking the peng', amazing!" Hua Qingyu gave a thumbs up.
It worked, and a deep voice sounded among the mountains: "It turned out to be you." Come to the valley to the north. ”
Jin Chanyu accepted the gold and silver silk, and said with a smile to everyone: "Look, it's shocked." ”
Due to the shaking of the mountain just now, the stones are not stable, so the road down the mountain is very difficult, and everyone almost slips in three steps.
Shi Haoming asked the people, "Have you ever seen this kind of mountain without a major mountain, but all made of small broken stones?"
Everyone shook their heads again and again, this low hill was so strange, as if someone had deliberately piled it up. However, even if you want to pile up this mountain, it is not an easy task, not to mention to find such a large number of cobblestones, just looking at the vastness of this mountain area, it may not take 5,000 or 10,000 years to spend. Will there be such a boring person in the world?
According to Wu Xunyang's guidance, the group traveled north along the valley road between the mountains. After rounding another low hill, a large open area suddenly opened up in front of everyone. But there was still no trace of the house, nor did they see Wu Xunyang, only there were many black rocks in the distance.
In any case, the half-man-tall black rocks were probably the only color in the mountain other than the monotonous gray-and-white stone color. Several people walked over curiously. When approaching the first black rock, another "black rock" next to it suddenly moved, startling everyone. If you look closely, you can see what kind of black rock it is, and it is clearly a man with a long black cloak! The man was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and he slowly turned around without standing up, as if floating in the air. He had long and thin cheeks, three long beards under his chin, a pair of long, white eyebrows hanging down to his cheeks, a high nose, and closed eyes, and said, "What are you looking for me?"
"Brother Wu, it's been a long time. Jin Chanyu said with a greeting.
"Let's get straight to it. Wu Xunyang's tone was cold.
Jin Chanyu said
asked Wu Xunyang to save people.
Before the words fell, Wu Xunyang pointed at Hua Qingyu from afar: "She should be a person who can refine medicine, why did she come to me?"
Everyone was shocked, Wu Xunyang was obviously the first time he saw Hua Qingyu, why did he know that she could refine medicine?
Jin Chanyu said: "My friend's injury is quite special, and it can only be healed by Brother Wu's pure yin demon power, so ......"
Wu Xunyang didn't wait for her to finish her words before interrupting: "If you come to ask for any elixir, I can agree, but this matter is not good." Go back. ”
Jin Chanyu never expected that Wu Xunyang would refuse so simply, she hurriedly said: "Brother Wu, only your pure yin demon power can save him in the world!"
"Your friend has nothing to do with his injury, and I have no responsibility or obligation to save him. Go back. Wu Xunyang asked everyone to leave again.
"Senior Wu, it was Taigong Li who asked us to come to you. Xiao Tianhe saw that it didn't make sense to rely on emotion, so he had to move the name of Li Taigong out.
Unexpectedly, Wu Xunyang still refused: "I don't recognize any 'Li Taigong'." Go back. Don't disturb my retreat. Maybe it's because it's just three things, this time after Wu Xunyang issued the "eviction order", the figure suddenly disappeared!
Ao Jianwei pursed his lips: "What, so stingy!"
Jin Chanyu frowned: "Brother Wu was not like this before, since he came back from the Burning Heaven Palace, he seems to have completely changed as a person, and his speech and demeanor are very strange." ”
"Now that the people are gone, it seems that this time it was a trip for nothing. Shi Hao said.
"Fei Tukong's injury seems to have to find a way for my predecessors in the Huajun vein. Hua Qingyu bit her lower lip, "After I come back from the Burning Heaven Palace, I will immediately take him to find the seniors." ”
Jin Chanyu said helplessly: "It's useless." Injuries caused by Pure Yang Skill can only be cured by Pure Yin Skill. I'm sorry, but I couldn't help this time. But don't worry too much, after the matter of the Burning Heaven Palace is over, I will immediately send the people of the Insect Department to search for the masters of Yin attribute demon power in the entire demon realm. ”
A few people remembered that Jin Chanyu had indeed said outside the Hun Tian Prison that it was not as convenient as finding Wu Xunyang for other demon clan masters with Yin attribute skills who did not know where to live in seclusion. But when Wu Xunyang's road doesn't work, he can only hope for this.
"Master Jin, what if I can't find it?Or maybe there is no other master of Yin attribute demonic power in this world at all......" Shi Haoming's words were like a basin of cold water, ruthlessly extinguishing the little flame of hope that had just been ignited.
Jin Chanyu sighed: "Don't tell everyone, there is indeed a possibility that you can't find it at all." But before it came to an end, there was always hope. Let's take one step at a time, and think of other ways when we are desperate. ”
A major event was not accomplished, and everyone had to embark on the return journey in a huff.
Unexpectedly, just a few steps out, Wu Xunyang's voice suddenly sounded in his ears again: "Slow!"
Everyone turned around in surprise, Wu Xunyang was standing in front of the black rock, and opened his eyes.
Jin Chanyu looked at him expectantly, and Wu Xunyang asked, "Where is your injured friend?"
"He has been unconscious, and it is quite inconvenient to bring him to the Demon Domain. Brother Wu, what do you mean?"
Wu Xunyang nodded: "I will divide a part of the demon spirit orb to save him." ”
Jin Chanyu was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled everyone to bow down and thank them.
"Don't thank me. This is not the place, so come with me. Wu Xunyang turned around, put his hands on his shoulders, and walked forward lightly.
Everyone had a big doubt in their hearts, why did Wu Xunyang, who was obviously very resolute just now, suddenly agree to save people again? And the change is still so fast!
After Wu Xunyang led his group around a black rock, a wide tunnel entrance appeared in front of everyone. No wonder I can't see the house where Wu Xunyang lives, it turns out that he lives underground. More precisely, living in a cave. The staircase, the two walls, and the top wall were all the same black rock as the ground. A row of shallow pits for lamps and candles were dug on the left and right cave walls, like two bands of light, circling and leading everyone deep into the ground. As you go deeper and deeper, the space that unfolds in front of everyone's eyes becomes larger and larger. The staircase swirls between countless black stalagmites, stalactites and stone pillars, as if entering a majestic castle. The surface of all the black rocks is so smooth that it is impossible to tell whether the light on the surface is a real candle flame or the light and shadow of other candle flames, and it is as if you have entered a glorious palace. This underground cave is not only spacious, magnificent, but also very dry, which is very different from ordinary underground caves.
"Now I finally know why Brother Wu chose to retreat here. I really didn't expect that under the inconspicuous stone mound, there would be such a magnificent underground world......" Jin Chanyu smacked her lips and admired.
Wu Xunyang said: "Actually, the spectacular scenery is not the reason why I chose here. That's what I'm here for," he said, patting a stone pillar he had passed. ”
"These black rocks are indeed very peculiar," Shi Haoming leaned closer and carefully looked at the surface of the rock pillar with great interest, and gently stroked it with his hand, "If I guess correctly, this is the place with the same name as the White Jade Divine Wall of the Beast Department." ”
"Yes. Wu Xunyang stretched out his finger and pointed upward, "Above the ground, there is the obsidian forest." ”
