Chapter 465: Substitute Talisman
The tower was already in danger after six claw strikes from the monster. Obviously, the seventh claw strike will be the final fatal blow. After entering the Tianliang layer, everyone climbed all the way and fled, and they didn't know how to climb thousands or tens of thousands of zhang, falling from such a high place, just thinking about it made people tremble.
"Resolutely can't let it catch the seventh hit!" Zhou Wenxuan yelled anxiously, but he didn't know what to do.
Hua Qingyu grabbed several medicinal powders and rubbed them into pills in her palm, threw them at Zhou Wenxuan, who was closest to the monster's left front paw, and shouted: "Stuff it into the wound to slow down its movements!" She muttered in her heart: "This poison only has the effect of ossifying the muscles and muscles, although the effect on the monster may be minimal, but as long as it is delayed for a little longer, it is really just a little bit, and the poison can be completed!" Hua Qingyu can be said to have completely bet the chips of defeating the monster on the poison that is about to be made.
Zhou Wenxuan hooked the monster's claw wrist with the hook again, wanting to jump to the back of the claw. But this time, the monster suddenly flipped its claw wrist and grabbed Zhou Wenxuan. Zhou Wenxuan was shocked and couldn't break free, but he still took the opportunity to stuff the poison into the wound where the claw armor was cracked.
The monster was furious, and with a hard grip, Zhou Wenxuan himself could hear the sound of the ribs breaking, and blood spit out of his mouth like a fountain. Then the monster shook his hand and threw him against the wall, and was caught by Xiao Tianhe and He Tianyao, who had arrived. It was so miserable that the two of them couldn't even bear to look at it. Hua Qingyu was busy dispensing poison on the other side, and he couldn't come over to check Zhou Wenxuan's injuries. His face was covered in blood, his body trembled slightly, and his chest visibly collapsed into it. He Tianyao shouted to Shang Xingjie: "Return to Yuan Dan, Nine Turns to Yuan Dan!"
Shang Xingjie spread his hands: "It's already used up!"
At this time, the monster's last claw strike had begun to gather momentum. The ossification of the poison worked, and the monster raised its claws much more slowly.
Hua Qingyu was so anxious that she was about to cry, but the poison was still a beat slower. The more anxious you are, the more panicked you are, your hands will shake when you panic, and your hands will shake your hands to grasp the dosage inaccurately, not to mention that Hua Qingyu has no scales, and she is already relying on experience and intuition to estimate the amount. Seeing her flustered movements and anxious expression, everyone knew that the situation was not optimistic, and they were afraid that it would be too late.
Xiao Tianhe found that Zhou Wenxuan's mouth was gently opening and closing, as if he wanted to say something, so he leaned in to listen.
"Throw, throw me...... Past, past...... Mouth, mouth ......" Zhou Wenxuan was angry, and he would spit out a mouthful of blood every time he said a word.
"Throw you over?" Xiao Tianhe thought he had misheard.
"Yes...... Hurry up ......"
Xiao Tianhe and He Tianyao glanced at each other, one raised his hand and the other raised his foot, and threw Zhou Wenxuan into the monster's mouth.
"Could it be that he wants to use himself to induce the monster to open his mouth and swallow him?" the monster is very shrewd, and he will definitely not be fooled at this juncture!" Xiao Tianhe said in his heart.
"He doesn't plan to blow himself up, right? At this time, he will blow himself up, and the tower will be broken without waiting for the monster to catch it!" He Tianyao shook his head while thinking.
Zhou Wenxuan fell on the monster's long mouth, startling the monster. This fall is equivalent to "tidying up" the broken bones in his body again, and the injuries are even more injured, Zhou Wenxuan has only the qi coming out, and there is no qi entering.
Of course, the monster would not open its mouth at this time, it was just about to shake its head to shake Zhou Wenxuan off, but Zhou Wenxuan used his last strength to send a hook at the monster's nose hole. The hook that was not controlled was directly taken off his hand, and the whole thing "drilled" into the monster's nose hole.
The monster's body trembled, the corners of its mouth trembled, and its upper and lower lips finally parted a slit.
"That's ......," Ye Linglong's eyes widened.
"Sneez!" Xiao Tianhe reacted.
Previously, when Jin Chanyu was on the monster's face, she slapped it in the nose hole, and it was that palm that made the monster's mouth open a slit, all of which was seen by Zhou Wenxuan, so he boldly speculated that monsters are the same as people, they want to sneeze when they itch in their noses, and as long as they sneeze, they will definitely open their mouths!
Of course, this is only the last minute way to do it, Hua Qingyu's poison is too late, if you don't do anything, you can only wait for everyone to die together. Zhou Wenxuan knew that he couldn't survive, so he used his last bit of strength to fight for everyone a chance to defeat the monster.
Fortunately, Zhou Wenxuan gambled correctly and won the fight, although the monster was extremely reluctant, but its mouth was opening wider and wider uncontrollably.
It's just that this is a chance to "if you don't succeed, you will succeed", and you must kill the monster before it sneezes, otherwise the sneezing wave with that big mouth is enough to completely destroy the tower.
Hua Qingyu stopped dispensing poison, it was too late anyway. Xiao Tianhe and He Tianyao's weapons had been destroyed, but fortunately, for Xiao Tianhe, there would be no shortage of swords, and he took out another knife and a sword from the storage magic weapon. Everyone stared with bated breath, waiting for the moment when the monster's mouth opened to the maximum. Can it really kill with one hit? Everybody's hearts were beating.
Jin Chanyu had moved to the front of the monster at this moment. The golden phoenix dagger floated above her head. Suddenly, she jumped up high, everyone was shocked, this was not the best time to attack! But Jin Chanyu had her own plans, she had already concluded that it was simply whimsical to kill monsters with one blow just by relying on the sword waves, sword qi, and demon power waves of the two Yi levels!
The graceful body gracefully somersaulted in the air, and suddenly, a huge figure appeared above the monster's head.
Jin Yin Silkworm! Jin Chanyu turned into a body in mid-air!
The giant silkworm's head rushed down, and suddenly spit out a stream of gold and silver threads from its mouth, as fast as electricity, straight into the monster's throat. When chasing and killing the villain Wei Lingming outside the Burning Heaven Palace, Jin Chanyu once used this trick, and those two strands of gold and silver filaments were her last resort, which could only be spit out in the form of a silkworm in her body, and its power was naturally much stronger than the gold and silver filaments of the gold and silver silk gloves.
The monster's last sneeze will never come out, two strands of gold and silver
It is pierced from the mouth to its belly. The giant silkworm's huge body was supported by two strands of silk and stood upside down in the air. Everyone's eyes fell on the giant silkworm's body, and their hearts were shocked.
The tail of the giant silkworm bent down, slowly tightening its body.
Suddenly, an inconspicuous white light lit up in the monster's mouth. Jin Chanyu's heart sank suddenly, and she immediately swung sideways and blocked the monster and others.
"Boom!" The earth-shattering noise almost made everyone's ears bleed, but the sight was blocked by the figure of the giant silkworm, and no one saw the situation over there. The body of the giant silkworm slammed into everyone, and with it, there was a surging wave of qi. The overwhelmed tower finally broke, and everyone was shaken off into the vast sea of clouds outside the tower, falling down with the remnants of bricks and rubble.
The clouds and mist are thick, and in a trance, it seems to be in the Nine Heavens Wonderland. Before they could think about what had happened, everyone fell asleep.
......
Xiao Tianhe slowly opened his eyes, and the softness under him and the fresh breath on his face made him realize that he was lying on a green meadow. Getting up and looking around, the giant tower connecting heaven and earth was not far behind him, and more than a dozen zhang in front of him was the stone platform and gate that symbolized passing through this layer. Several companions were also there, but a touch of bright red next to him made Xiao Tianhe's heart immediately rise to his throat.
It was Jin Chanyu, who was covered in bruises.
Xiao Tianhe hurriedly ran to her side, carefully helped his upper body, and called softly: "Golden girl?
Jin Chanyu's eyes opened a slit, and after seeing Xiao Tianhe's face, there was a gentle smile on her face, and the blood stains and wounds still couldn't hide her thrilling beauty.
"I'm sorry, I can only accompany you to ...... Here it is. Jin Chanyu said weakly.
He Tianyao, who woke up, also came to her side: "What else do you want to apologize for?" Sister Qingyu, come and treat Miss Jin!"
"No need," Jin Chanyu shook her head slightly, "I have a word...... I want to say it to you. When Wu Xunyang, the king of Dapeng, cut the demon spirit orb and was about to fall into a coma, he once ...... Told me a word, let me be sure to ...... I must take you to the highest and highest place of the Burning Heaven Palace, but unfortunately, I can't do it, you ...... Don't ...... Keep at it......" Her voice grew softer and softer, until she closed her eyes.
The red soul ascended to heaven, the body dissipated, Xiao Tianhe squatted in place and didn't get up, Ye Linglong kept wiping the tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes, and Hua Qingyu lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
"The monster finally blew itself up. Shang Xingjie walked over and sighed with a hint of happiness, "If she hadn't blocked it for us, we would have been wiped out." ”
Xiao Tianhe looked up to the sky and sighed: "This battle is really too tragic...... "Tianliang" is not one of the "Six Evil Stars", but he has lost three companions in this layer. What saddened Xiao Tianhe the most was Jin Chanyu's departure. Since she accidentally entered the Imperial Cliff Realm and became acquainted with her, she has been playing the role of a senior and friend by Xiao Tianhe's side. She is strong and strong, but she does not have the slightest lofty shelf; she is amiable and kind to others; she is wise and open-minded, and the insect department is thriving under her leadership; and what is even more commendable is that she has always taken good care of Xiao Tianhe. Sometimes even Xiao Tianhe himself couldn't understand why Jin Chanyu was so kind to him? It was said that it was a personal affair between his children? But the two of them had always respected each other; No matter what position Jin Chanyu puts in Xiao Tianhe, she is already very important in his heart. Suddenly, there is a lack of a companion who has almost become a "habit", and it is inevitable that there will be a huge sense of emptiness and loss in my heart.
"Brother Xiang, Brother Zhou, I didn't expect you two to go together. The three of us came in together, and now I'm the only one left. is the same as the five emperors and five monarchs, I really don't know what to say. And a glass of turbid wine to show my remembrance. Let's go!" Shang Xingjie looked at the horizon in the distance and solemnly spilled the wine in his glass.
"Shang Dajun, I have something to ask for. Hua Qingyu said suddenly.
"You say. Shang Xingjie turned around.
"I hope you can give me some more herbs so that I can prepare for the next layer. As she spoke, Hua Qingyu's tears rolled in her eyes, and she was full of guilt in her heart, she always felt that it was her failure to prepare the poison in time that led to this tragic ending.
"Yes, you can, but a lot of material reserves have been lost in the tower, and you can use the rest to use. "Shang Xingjie is still quite generous at this time.
When Shang Xingjie walked to the stone platform, Steward Meng appeared again, and there were already as many as eight soul fires in his lantern.
"Steward Meng, I want to know two things: first, what exactly is that monster in the tower? Second, does that damn tower have a top?" Shang Xingjie asked straight to the point.
Steward Meng smiled: "The first question, a strange beast that cannot exist in reality, why do you bother with its name? The second question, of course the Tianliang Tower has a top, but it is not at the top of the tower, but in your hearts." ”
"Hey, so it's mysterious, it's the same as not saying it. Shang Xingjie decided to ignore him anymore, looked at the things on the stone platform, and with just one glance, he couldn't take his eyes off it.
Several thin charms were placed side by side in the center of the stone platform, each one was the same, and in the middle of it was written a word - life.
Shang Xingjie immediately went against his decision, and still opened his mouth to Steward Meng: "This, this is a substitute, a substitute talisman?"
Steward Meng nodded.
"Wow!" Shang Xingjie's excited expression was overflowing, and he counted several times from left to right, a total of five. That is, everyone gets one. After Shang Xingjie made sure that he had not counted wrongly, he happily picked up one and carefully held it in his palms, for fear of accidentally breaking the rune paper. At the same time, his gaze was still reluctantly left on the side of a few charms
Above.
"What's that?" He Tianyao, who heard Shang Xingjie's exclamation, walked over.
"The most precious 'substitute' in the talisman. At a critical juncture, you can die on behalf of others. Steward Meng explained.
"What, why didn't you say it earlier!" Xiao Tianhe rushed over, full of regret, he knew that he had come to get one and put it on Jin Chanyu just now.
"Silly boy, the substitute talisman is not an elixir to bring the dead back to life, it is a very defensive talisman, which can block a fatal blow for people, and if you die after being seriously injured like the Lord of the Golden Ministry, it is useless to stick it. If you want to post it, you have to post it before the monster explodes. Shang Xingjie explained.
"So that's ......" Xiao Tianhe was disappointed, but also relieved, at least he didn't make the mistake of "missing the opportunity to save people".
"On the next floor, everyone won't die!" Shang Xingjie was overjoyed.
Steward Meng interjected, "I have to remind you again. All the treasures obtained from the Burning Heaven Palace will not work until they leave the palace. Not only magic weapons, but other things as well. ”
"Ah? It's the flower in the mirror again, the moon under the water, don't look at the baby, you have to have a life to take it first." Who knows if he will be able to get out alive in the end?" Shang Xingjie said this, but he still carefully put away the talisman.
Xiao Tianhe recalled that from the five layers that had passed, the final treasures were magic weapons, treasure armor, weapons, pills, and charms, and the finished products of the "Three Paths and Six Techniques" were almost complete. "Steward Meng, are all the treasures forged and manufactured by the Lord of the Burning Heaven Palace?" Xiao Tianhe asked.
"Of course not. Except for the magic weapon of the earth tribulation layer, which came from the master's hand, everything else was given by the master's former friends. ”
"That's surprising enough. Whether it's the Tianyi Armor or the Substitute Talisman, it's all the best of the best!" Shang Xingjie sighed, "Take this Substitute Talisman as an example, I've only heard of it before, but I've never seen it with my own eyes." According to the book, many talisman masters have spent their entire lives to customize a piece, and if you want to make a substitute talisman, you must prepare countless excellent talisman papers, and you also require the talisman maker to have super high skills, almost at the level of a talisman master. Even if the conditions are met, the odds of making a substitute talisman are still ridiculously low. He was given five substitute talismans at once...... No, these five should be based on the number of people we have survived, and there must be more than five!
"That's also because the master of the Burning Heaven Palace has enough strength and face. The person who can build the Burning Heaven Palace must not be an ordinary person. As the saying goes, 'things gather by like, and people are divided by groups', how can his friends be idle people?"
Shang Xingjie sneered: "The Lord of the Burning Heaven Palace is undoubtedly a legendary figure, but he is not a good person. ”
"It's better not to make judgments until you know a person. "Steward Meng is upset for the master.
Look at the series of difficulties he has set, requiring people's lives at all levels, and the whole army will be wiped out without sacrificing a few people, which shows that he is a narrow-minded and ruthless person. Shang Xingjie has a heartbeat.
"If the treasure is at your fingertips, then it will lose its preciousness, won't it?" Steward Meng's words were always so profound.
"By the way," Shang Xingjie remembered one more thing and took out a vial, "I forgot to ask before, what is the use of this bottle of elixir obtained in the Taiyin layer?"
"When you go out, you can eat it. Steward Meng said.
Shang Xingjie was very dissatisfied with this answer: "If it is a life-saving elixir, wouldn't it be wasted?"
"Definitely. The miraculous effect of the elixir given by the owner and friend is by no means comparable to that of ordinary elixirs. There is no one in the world who does not want to get this elixir, and you will definitely not regret taking it. Steward Meng just didn't know.
Seeing that he couldn't come up with a reason, Shang Xingjie put away the pill bottle stupidly.
"Alright, the beam layer has passed. I'm here to lead you to the next level. Before entering the Dhara layer, though......"
"'I have a question for you', right?" Shang Xingjie said first, "Your memory is not very good, I've said it all, you don't need to ask that stupid question again, we stepped on the corpse of our companion to get here, how can we give up easily?"
"Steward Meng, can you stay on this floor for the time being? I need time to prepare some poisons and medicines. "Hua Qingyu said.
