Chapter 36: A Blessing in Disguise
It was another morning, Yun Xuan was carrying an umbrella backpack and holding the black iron rod, standing in the courtyard, a little worried in his heart, not knowing if he could leave with Qingli.
Qing Li had just taken her soul back into the lotus body, and after a night of consideration, she was going to put the entire lotus plant and its stems and leaves into the lotus body and get out of the lotus pond. Although this will cause greater consumption, it will not become a rootless flower, and it will recover much faster in the future.
The green lotus leaves in the pool gradually disappeared, leaving only one lotus flower in the pool, and suddenly the water rippled, and the lotus rose from the pool, slowly rotated, approached Yun Xuan, and retracted into his left forearm.
Yun Xuan saw a pink lotus tattoo appear on his arm.
"Alright. A clear voice came from his heart.
Yun Xuan nodded, walked out of the courtyard gate, and left the courtyard where he had stayed for a few days.
He passed the lotus pond and walked into the path in the forest ahead.
"The front is in the area of the big array. I'm going to try to restrain my soul aura as much as I can. Qingli's voice rang out.
Yun Xuan looked ahead, he didn't see any traces of the formation, only the messy grass and trees, he nodded and continued to move forward.
After only taking two steps, suddenly a burst of pressure came from the air around him, and the coercion forced Yun Xuan's heart and body.
"Did you sense it?"
He had walked back and forth here many times before, but there had never been this kind of coercion, it should have been Qing Li on him, which would cause the earth vein dragon qi to oppress his body and soul, and he wanted to enter his body and attack Qing Li directly.
Yun Xuan was silent, and continued to step forward, the pressure became stronger and stronger, his head was dizzy, his body was tense, he was so weak that he wanted to vomit, and fine sweat gradually broke out on his forehead.
At this time, the vitality of the second vein of Ren Du in his body also seemed to sense the danger, and it automatically operated in the meridians, and there was restlessness.
In his vitality, a wisp of green dragon vitality that was invisible to the naked eye absorbed the faint earth vein dragon qi that had penetrated into his body and grew stronger.
Yun Xuan continued to move forward, walking slower and slower, the iron rod in his hand supporting his body.
"Brother Yunxuan, are you alright, I found that your soul and body are under heavy pressure. Qingli's voice suddenly sounded.
"It's fine. Yun Xuan responded, he shook his head to cheer up his spirits and continued to move forward.
"The closer this formation is to the edge of the big formation, the stronger the power of the formation, and you can't estimate that you can't get out of the range of the formation alone. Qing Li's voice came, "My soul is now going to enter your soul sea, and through the soul sea center, I will condense part of my spiritual power on the surface of your body, block the coercion for you, and you will move forward as soon as possible." ”
A one-foot-wide golden halo appeared on Yun Xuan's body, and he felt his body relax for a while, and all the coercion he had borne before disappeared.
"Hurry up, I don't know how long my soul power can sustain the consumption. Qing Li's voice sounded, and she had already appeared in Yun Xuan's soul sea.
At this time, if someone saw Yun Xuan, who was covered in a golden halo, he would definitely kneel down and bow down, thinking that he had met a fairy Bodhisattva.
Yun Xuan didn't have any intention to appreciate the golden halo around him, he only cared about running all the vitality in Ren Du's second vein, and ran forward quickly, he wanted to leave as quickly as possible.
As soon as the golden halo came out, a thin layer of black light suddenly appeared on its surface, which was the formation sensing Qing Li's soul power and transforming the earth's vein dragon qi into a soul-destroying divine light, specifically attacking the soul.
Qing Li's soul power met the soul destroying divine light, just like the cold ice met the flames, constantly melting, the range of the halo gradually narrowed, and suddenly the golden halo soared, which was Qing Li's soul power output into the halo again.
Qing Likong has power but can't use it, since she woke up from the lotus body, she has been alone, she has not learned systematic cultivation exercises, she is all relying on instinct to cultivate, and using her own power according to the most initial means.
If she could learn the soul defense technique, relying on the soul realm between the Earth Soul Realm and the Heavenly Soul Realm, she would not be as powerless as she is today.
Qing Li continued to output soul power around the soul sea.
The golden halo rose and shrank, shrunk and shrunk.
In his mind, Qingli's face was pale and weak, and his body swayed, becoming transparent and illusory, as if he was about to disappear.
A halo swelled, and a faint voice came out of his mind: "Brother Yunxuan, I can't support it, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out, let's go back, otherwise it will hurt you." ”
"No, you can definitely get out. Yun Xuan said that he ran faster.
"Brother Yunxuan......" Qingli's thin voice sounded in his mind, Qingli closed his eyes, and his weak soul was forced back into the lotus body.
The aura around his body gradually disappeared and shrank, and at the moment when the halo finally disappeared, the extinguishing divine light that aimed at Qingli's soul power disappeared out of thin air if it couldn't find the object to target.
But at the moment when the light disappeared, a strong pressure pierced Yun Xuan's body and soul, his chest ached, he was overwhelmed, his body trembled constantly, and the pain of ten thousand needles poured came, it was the earth vein dragon qi that forcibly forced into Yun Xuan's body.
The lotus imprint in his left forearm heated up, as if it was about to burn.
At this time, the Qinglong Yuan Qi, who was following the operation of the Yuan Qi army in Yun Xuan's body, felt the threat and provocation of the Earth Vein Dragon Qi, as if he was angry.
Yun Xuan heard a muffled sound of "Ang", and he felt that his vitality was running rapidly.
After only a while, the pinprick pain in Yun Xuan's body was reduced a lot, and the Qinglong vitality grew a little stronger.
Yun Xuan found something strange in his body at this time, "Could it be that the vitality in the body can eliminate the pain in the body." ”
He hurriedly stopped, sat cross-legged on the ground, and used his vitality throughout his body.
Even if he wanted to leave now, he couldn't go, because the pressure from the outside world was too strong, and his chest was so oppressed that he couldn't breathe, and at this time, he could only rely on his vitality to resist the oppression of the outside world, barely breathing, and exchanging breaths.
Yun Xuan sat quietly like this, and he strangely found that the pinprick sensation in his body no longer increased, but instead the vitality continued to grow as it worked.
The meridians that had been consumed empty yesterday had a feeling of expansion again, and the vitality in the body gradually transformed into the green dragon qi.
"Could it be that because of a blessing in disguise, the vitality in the body is absorbing the power transmitted from the large array?" Yun Xuan felt a burst of joy in his heart, and as the vitality grew, the pain in his chest gradually lightened.
"I don't know if I can break through to the third layer of condensation veins here. Yun Xuan calmed down, "Since you can't leave for the time being, I'll try to break through the third layer here." ”
The sun climbed to the top of the mountain, and dappled points of light fell on Yun Xuan's body.
He closed his eyes, holding back the feeling of vertigo in his head.
At this time, the vitality in his body was running, and while absorbing the earth vein dragon qi that had infiltrated his body, he was strengthening his body.
The vitality in the meridians was agitated more powerful than when absorbing the lotus green wood qi before.
The vitality was rushing, like a tearing stinging sensation, Yun Xuan vaguely heard a rumbling sound in his body, and the vitality suddenly burst through the acupuncture points between the Ren pulse and the Chong pulse, and rushed into the chong pulse.
The third layer of condensation.
Yun Xuan opened his eyes and looked at the sun in the sky, which had risen more than a foot high, the pressure in his chest was slightly suppressed, there was no pain, and the pinprick sensation on his body had become extremely weak.
"This is really a good place to break through the realm and gather vitality!" Yun Xuan thought.
"It's just that now is not the time to covet these powers, it's important to get out of here first. ”
He stood up and continued to run forward, the vitality in his body running, absorbing the earth vein dragon qi.
It was only after a while, when he was about to walk out of the forest path, the coercion became heavy again, and the sharp pain of countless needle punctures on his body came again, Yun Xuan's muscles were trembling, and his chest was pressed to pain.
He insisted on taking a few more steps forward, feeling that he was almost out of breath, and there was a swelling pain in his meridians.
Yun Xuan looked at the intersection not far away, and still sat down, this formation doesn't know how wide it is, you must strengthen your body before leaving.
The pain in his chest was only slightly relieved by the constant tearing pain in his meridians, and sweat was dripping from his body.
Yun Xuan tried his best to keep his breathing, he was afraid that he would faint, and he would not be able to control his breathing at that time, and he would not be killed by the tearing pain of the meridians, but would be suffocated to death by the large array.
The vitality is roaring, constantly colliding with the meridians, repairing the cracks, and the strength of the body is constantly improving, but it is more difficult to break through the meridians.
The belt vein expanded by half of its original size, and suddenly, a sharp pain came out of the meridians, Yun Xuan bit it, and a muffled sound sounded, and the meridians broke through the acupoints and entered the belt veins, and the rolling vitality was like a wild horse that had escaped, cheering and galloping.
A sense of pleasure spread throughout Yun Xuan's body.
Yun Xuan opened his eyes happily and forced his vitality towards his fist, a layer of blue light appeared on his fist, and the skin on his body also had a fine blue glow of less than a millimeter thick.
"This is the Vitality Protector!"
With the opening of the four meridians, the vitality runs smoothly throughout the body, and it can automatically leave the body to protect itself.
At this time, Yun Xuan's meridian space was equivalent to an ordinary martial artist opening five and a half meridians, and the density of vitality reached the number of seven meridians of ordinary people, and the strength of his body had reached the early stage of the sixth layer.
If he condensed the four layers of his veins, he would be able to reach the amount of vitality contained in the nine meridians of ordinary people.
"Boom"
Yun Xuan's right fist struck out to the ground, seventy jun strength, the fist was inserted into the ground, the nearby ground was dented, the surrounding soil trembled, the fallen leaves and sand and dust flew and rolled out of four battles, and the strength of two thousand catties in one arm was really strong,.
Swinging this punch, Yun Xuan, who was in joy, suddenly felt a burst of weakness, and there was pressure in his chest, it turned out that most of the vitality that was running in the body just now was consumed by a punch, and the vitality of the external body protection almost disappeared.
He hurriedly mobilized the remaining vitality in the meridians, guarded his mind, and crossed his knees for a while, and the pressure on his body disappeared.
Yun Xuan stood up and looked at the lotus print on his left hand, there was no heat coming, and then he opened the sword wound in his right hand and looked at it, there were still some scars.
Time to go.
He took a step forward, and when he got out of the intersection, he felt only a slight pressure on his body, and after walking for a while, the pressure suddenly disappeared.
Already out of battle?
Yun Xuan stopped running his vitality, and the pressure was completely gone.
He looked back at the back, but he still only saw the dense forest, and he didn't see the shrouded formation.
"Sister Qingli, we're out!" Yun Xuan shouted excitedly in his heart.
Qingli did not respond.
"Qingli?"
Still no response.
Yun Xuan was worried for a while, "Did you faint after too much consumption...... It's better to get out of here quickly. ”
Yun Xuan walked quickly towards Fallen Leaf City.
Turning into Nanzhu Avenue in Nancheng and continuing forward, Yun Xuan heard a greasy voice in front of him, "Gongzi Li, look at the stairs!"
Yun Xuan looked at it, and there was a young and gorgeous woman standing at the door of the street in front of him, stretching out her hand to greet a young man who walked up the stairs, and the plaque on the door read "Yuehualou".
It's Yuehua House again.
Yun Xuan remembered the purple face towel he had placed in his backpack, and Zhou Ruyun's figure came to mind. "I'm leaving, should I say goodbye to her?"
Yun Xuan passed by the door of Yuehua Tower, glanced inside, and didn't see Ru Yun. He walked forward a dozen steps, stopped, turned to look at the gate of Yuehualou, he wanted to go in, but he was too shy to approach.
Passing by Yuehua Building again, "You must go in, you must go in", Yun Xuan said secretly.
This time he walked very slowly, scratched his face, and glanced at it a few times in a row, but he still didn't see Ru Yun, and he didn't go in.
As soon as he walked away, the young woman at the door beckoned: "Childe, childe." ”
Yun Xuan turned around and saw a gorgeous woman waving to him.
Yun Xuan didn't move.
The woman walked over and said, "What are you doing standing, come here." She took Yun Xuan's hand.
"I'm ......," Yun Xuan just wanted to speak.
"I understand, you've walked around and watched it so many times. Young man, it was like this at first!" the woman looked like I understood, and pulled Yun Xuan into the door.
"Do you have a favorite girl?" the woman asked.
Yun Xuan said, "No......"
"The girl you don't like, is it because you have a crush on me? Oh, you hate it! The woman quickly turned her head and covered her face with a handkerchief, her face full of shyness.
"Stop, I'm here to find someone. Yun Xuan hurriedly said.
"Looking for someone, which man didn't come here to find someone?" said the woman, half shy, half blamed.
"I'm looking for Ru Yun, do you know Zhou Ruyun?" Yun Xuan hurriedly said, he was afraid that the other party would say more moths.
The woman calmed down and said, "You're looking for Ru Yun?"
Yun Xuan wondered: "It's not here, where have you gone?"
At this time, the old bustard came out and said, "After Miss Ru Yun met you a few days ago, she left with Xiaolian the next day. Where to go? Nobody knows. You don't know where you got the blessing to be the guest of Miss Yun. ”
The woman next to her said, "I can't see it, I can win the favor of Miss Yun!"
She touched Yun Xuan's waist muscles.
"Gone?" Yun Xuan muttered. I felt that my waist was being touched, and I was startled and hurriedly ran out.
Yun Xuan left Yuehualou, ate something casually on the street, bought half a bag of rice, and bought a windmill and a few strings of gourd candy for his sister Yunxi, walked out of the south gate, and walked towards Ping'an Village.
