"Childe, there is indeed something strange. One of the guards grabbed the broken hand bone, "The second master seems to have been holding on to this hexagram until he died. ”

"Hexagram?" Gu Xiuyun frowned slightly, and hurriedly looked over.

The hexagram is not stone or jade, the color is dark, and there is a faint spiritual power on it.

After taking the hexagram sign, Gu Xiuyun took a closer look at it, the sign was engraved with strange patterns, many of which were already dim, only the middle one was still flashing with spiritual light.

"It's actually a spirit tortoise black armor pick?" Gu Xiuyun's pupils shrank.

If you are a bystander, you must not recognize the origin of the hexagram, but he was a member of the Mandate of Heaven in his previous life, and what he did the most in his life was to measure words and calculate hexagrams, and he was even more familiar with hexagrams.

The spirit turtle black armor stick, its refining material is taken from the spirit turtle demon beast.

Legend has it that the spirit turtle has a long lifespan, and after becoming a demon beast, the survival time is even longer, and the days accumulate under the moon, and the back shell is also imprinted with traces of the rules of heaven and earth.

The success rate of deduction will also be greatly increased by refining the black armor of the spirit turtle into a hexagram, so this kind of hexagram is the favorite of the physiognomy masters.

"As far as I know, every hundred years of existence of the black armor spirit turtle, the pattern on its back will only increase," Gu Xiuyun looked at the dark hexagram in front of him, which was covered with dense patterns, almost innumerable, "There are at least a thousand patterns on the hexagram stick, where did the second uncle get it?"

Thousands of patterns mean that the black-armored spirit turtle has survived for 100,000 years, even if it is a pig, it should become an immortal, let alone a spirit turtle?

Such a powerful demon beast can be skinned and made into a hexagram, which is simply terrifying.

"When I return to the city, I have to take a good look and see where the second uncle has been recently?" Gu Xiuyun said secretly in his heart.

As for the spirit tortoise black armor in his hand, it also contains a faint spiritual power, which must be the means of the person who started the hexagram, looking at the spiritual light, the corners of Gu Xiuyun's mouth were slightly provoked, and a trace of spiritual power probed into it.

If there is nothing, it seems to be guiding a certain direction.

"It's true, the second uncle is using this sign as a guide, looking for something. ”

It can be seen that this hexagram is indeed a gift from others, and the aura on the hexagram is ironclad evidence, although I don't know the goal of the second uncle, but as long as I follow the aura to the end, I can naturally see it.

"I don't need to explore this thing for now, I'd better go there first!"

Gu Xiuyun put away the spirit tortoise black armor stick, and continued to walk forward with the guards.

Half a day later, they came to a huge swamp, which was so low that all the rivers of the surrounding mountains were located, and they could not form a lake, so they could only maintain the form of a swamp.

Gu Xiuyun's brows condensed slightly, and he silently pinched his fingers to deduce the location of the Shui Ling Ancient Jade.

The closer he got, the less interference there was to the deduction, and he could even feel that the Water Spirit Ancient Jade was within a radius of several miles.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound sounded from the depths of the swamp, Gu Xiuyun hurriedly retreated, but the guards beside him couldn't dodge, only to see a phantom pass across the swamp water, and one of the guards disappeared.

"Evil animal, look for death!"

Gu Xiuyun was immediately furious, his fingers were together, and a sword light burst out from his fingertips, piercing through the void and piercing into the depths of the swamp.

Poof!

In the depths of the swamp, there was a faint muffled sound, and soon bright red blood stains surfaced, but Gu Xiuyun frowned, and shouted in a deep voice: "Immediately retreat, this demon beast is very cunning, and it is hiding under the swamp at the moment, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack." ”

The guards were all elites of the Gu family, and although they were afraid, they did not panic at all, and retreated to the periphery of the swamp in an orderly manner.

On the water, only Gu Xiuyun was left.

Cuckoo!

Occasional bubbles appeared on the surface of the water, and the monsters under the swamp seemed to be extremely patient and in no hurry to make a move.

At that moment just now, although Gu Xiuyun was caught off guard, he still injured the other party with his refining finger, if the demon beast surfaced again, Gu Xiuyun would definitely be able to give it a thunderous blow.

This demon beast is not stupid, just for an instant, it understands that it is not Gu Xiuyun's opponent, but it lives in the depths of the swamp all the year round, is familiar with the terrain, and if it confronts each other, it may not have no chance of winning.

Looking at the bubbles that bubbled up from time to time on the surface of the water, Gu Xiuyun's face was cold, and his fingertips pinched silently.

"Evil beast, do you think that if I don't show up, I won't be able to find you?"

The bubbles in the water are irregular, but since they exist, it means that the demon beast has been swimming under the swamp, so it can't escape his calculations.

Hundreds of feet away, the guards hid in the grass, occasionally raising their heads to peer at the swamp water.

"It's the first time I've seen Childe so serious, and I don't know what kind of demon beast exists under the swamp?"

"When Zhang Fu was devoured just now, I didn't even see the shadow of the demon beast, even if it was the Yuan Ling Washing Vein Realm Demon Beast, it was not so fast, and under the swamp, it was likely to be a demon beast that opened the pulse and closed the realm. Wu Laosan said.

A monster that opens the pulse and closes the realm?

A shadow suddenly cast a shadow on everyone's hearts, the shadow of the famous tree of the person, the opening of the pulse and the closed realm, no matter where it is placed, it is a terrifying existence.

What's more, this demon beast is so cunning, and it also knows how to hide with the help of swamps.

"Childe, is it its opponent?" asked a guard.

No one can answer this question.

"Let's just wait here, since Childe stays in the swamp, he must be sure. The other guard pondered for a moment before speaking.

They could only pray at the moment that Gu Xiuyun would successfully kill the demon beast, so that they would have the life to walk out of the mountain range alive and return to Youning City.

With just a few mortal martial artists, it is absolutely impossible to walk out of the five hundred miles alive.

On the swamp water, Gu Xiuyun's eyebrows were lowered, seemingly calm, but in fact, his mind was condensed to the extreme, and the tips of his left fingers pinched repeatedly, following the changes in the bubbles, deducing the true direction of the demon beast.

The fingers of his right hand were put together, and the sword light was faintly shaking on the fingertips, shining like water droplets, exuding a sharp edge.

Gu Xiuyun understood that the demon beast under the swamp was consuming his mind, and it was impossible to escape from being targeted by this kind of demon beast, even if he was far away from the swamp, he couldn't get rid of the pursuit.

The only solution is to kill it.

"I've finally found you!"

A moment later, Gu Xiuyun's eyes flashed, and the whole person fell directly underwater, and the two fingers of his right hand slammed into the depths of the silt.

Poof.

There was a muffled sound, as if the scale armor was pierced.

Before the demon beast could dodge, another sword light pierced through its body, and the swamp was suddenly covered with bright red, and the rich demon blood made the temperature of the lake increase by a few points.

"Roar!"

The demon beast was in pain, where could it hide anymore, and its huge tail flicked violently and rushed directly out of the water.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Xiuyun's figure also rushed out of the swamp.

At this moment, a guard happened to look up, only to see a huge lizard with two feet above the water, waving its tail and roaring angrily.

Compared to this, Gu Xiuyun's figure was extremely small, but his right hand kept waving, and one after another spiritual light pierced the body of the demon beast like sharp arrows.

Poof!

In front of the refining finger, the scale armor had no effect at all, and every sword finger stabbed out could penetrate the body of the demon beast.

Roar!

The lizard demon beast endured the severe pain and wanted to fight back, but it couldn't even touch Gu Xiuyun's body.

Under the full force of the storm, Gu Xiuyun was as slippery as a loach, no matter how the lizard's tail waved, it could only land on his phantom.

"Evil beast, how long do I think you can last?"

The cold light in Gu Xiuyun's eyes flickered, and every sword finger almost fell on the lizard's vital point, or the head, or the viscera.

But this demon has already turned on the pulse off, and its vitality is extremely terrifying, even if its head is pierced through four or five holes, it is still roaring angrily, and there is no sign of falling.

"This is the demon beast that opens the pulse realm?"

Gu Xiuyun's hands kept waving, and countless phantoms changed from his toes, dodging the bombardment of the giant tail, on the surface, he already had the absolute upper hand, but his mood was extremely heavy.

The vitality of the lizard demon beast is ridiculously strong, even if there are more than a dozen sword fingers in its body, it is still brave and incomparable, but Gu Xiuyun's body is extremely fragile, as long as it is hit by the giant tail, it is seriously injured.

"The gap in cultivation is too big!"

Gu Xiuyun sighed in his heart.

After all, he is only in the early stage of the Yuan Ling Pulse Washing Realm, and the power of the secret method cannot strengthen the physical body, and the lizard demon beast has existed for an unknown number of years, coupled with the cultivation of the Open Pulse Realm, the physical body is extremely tenacious.

Even the most vulnerable parts are far tougher than the tail of a cyan demon wolf.

Facing this lizard demon, Gu Xiuyun seemed to be dancing on the tip of a knife, as long as there was the slightest negligence, it would be a death.

Fortunately, he is good at deduction, his right hand constantly urges the refining finger, but his left hand is hidden in the placket, always deducing, pinching the movements of the demon beast.

No matter how the monster's tail waved, he could always calculate it in advance and dodge it.

If it weren't for that, even if he had the Wind Storm Escape Technique, it would be impossible for him to completely dodge the attack of the Lizard Demon Beast.
